English with Zubin 

First and foremost, carefully read the instructions for each T-F-NG question. Pay attention to any specific guidelines, such as whether the statements must be supported by evidence in the passage or if they should reflect the writer's opinion.

Next, proceed to read the passage thoroughly, keeping in mind the statements provided in the question. Pay close attention to the relevant sections that may contain information relating to the statements. Look for keywords or phrases that directly address or contradict the statements.

When evaluating each statement, consider whether there is clear evidence in the passage that supports its truthfulness. If you find explicit information that confirms the statement, mark it as "True." Conversely, if you encounter evidence that directly contradicts the statement, mark it as "False." Be cautious not to base your decision on assumptions or personal opinions. Stick to the information presented in the passage.

There may be instances where the information regarding a statement is not explicitly stated in the passage. In such cases, mark the statement as "Not Given." Remember, "Not Given" means there is insufficient information to confirm or deny the statement's truthfulness.

It's crucial to be aware of any qualifying words or phrases in the statements, such as "all," "only," "always," or "never." Pay close attention to these qualifiers, as they can significantly affect the accuracy of the statement.

Time management is key when answering T-F-NG questions. Allocate a specific amount of time for each question and avoid spending too much time on a single statement. If you're unsure about a statement, make an educated guess and move on. You can revisit it later if time allows.

IELTS INSIGHTS READING T-F-NG

“显眼包": “显眼”指明显而容易被看到，因而引人注目；“包”用在动词、形容词后面，指具有某种特点的人，原本“显眼包”指爱出风头，出洋相的人（make a fool (out) of），多少带有一点“嫌弃”的意味。但如今，“显眼包”指外在形象或性格特征引人注目的人，夸赞的意思明显。比如说：我的朋友是个“显眼包”。我有一个显眼包的朋友。
【EN】显眼包: "显眼"means obvious and easy to see, thus attracting attention; "包" used after a verb or adjective refers to a person with a certain characteristic.

But nowadays, "显眼包" refers to a person whose external appearance or personality traits are eye-catching, with a clear meaning of praise. For example: 我的朋友是个显眼包。我有一个显眼包朋友。
