Cambridge IELTS Reading, one passage at a time
An answer key tells you what you got wrong. It doesn't tell you why, and without the why your score doesn't move. Every page in this section takes one Cambridge passage apart: where each answer sits, how each question block is solved, and the questions most people lose.

Here's how to use it
Sit the test first, under time. Every passage page has a button that opens the same Cambridge test in Langujet, marked the moment you finish. Reading the analysis before you've tried the questions is like reading the end of a detective story first. You'll learn the answer and none of the method.
Before you look at a single answer, mark each of yours: sure, guessed, or ran out of time. Only the 'sure but wrong' ones are real gaps. Guesses and timeouts are a pacing problem, and they get fixed differently.
Then read the page in order. The answer map shows whether you were looking in the right place. The block notes show how that question type works. The hardest questions show the exact trap you fell into, if you fell into one.
Then do it again
A week later, sit the same test again. Yes, you'll remember some answers. That's fine. What you're checking is whether you still fall for the same kind of trap, and whether you finish on time. You can retake any test on Langujet as often as you like.
