IELTS Reading: keywords (book 9, test 2)

Here's a keyword table for test 2 in Cambridge IELTS book 9:

Even if you don't have a copy of the book, I think you can still learn something from this table. Look at the use of synonyms and similar words (e.g. worldwide / international, regulations / standards, current / modern).

Also, did you know the meanings of words like vulnerable, auditory and impairment? Look these words up in a dictionary, and see if you can use them in your own sentences.

How would I understand the similarity between National policy initiative and New Zealand strategy? Moreover International working party and global team effort is also very confusing.Dear Simon your valuable advice will be appreciated regarding above matters.
Thanks in advance.

I hope you are doing so well,
I am writing you because, I was starting to studying IELTS Academic,
but my school which I would like to apply for as a requirement, told
me, you need ''General'' IELTS, so I tried to find in you website
the same video that I found with a great explanation in the case of
Academic, Task 1, I would love to buy them as well,

So do you please tell me where may I find your great advices all about
General IELTS, in writing task 1, well, actually for everything. because
as long I had understood,

Speaking is the same General and Academic,
Listening is the same as well,
Writing just Task 1 it is different isn't it?
and reading in I am not 100% sure if is the same.

In advance. Thanks so much,
I really appreciate your great help, I got your eBook and it is just
fantastic!..

-auditory:
Scientists are used to conducting some interesting projects as so to help people's auditory problems out.
-impairment:
