Some tips to start you off
Tip 1: Be careful…
Sometimes there won’t be a clue in the sentence immediately before or after the gap. You really do need to read the whole text to get its meaning – sometimes the ‘clue’ is the entire paragraph.
Tip 2: Underline reference words…
Underline the names of people, organisations or places. Also, underline reference words such as ‘this’, ‘it’, ‘there’, etc. They will help you see connections between sentences and paragraphs.
