General Tips:

• Read all four texts quickly first so you know what each one is really about.
• Adverts, opinion pieces and book reviews each have a different purpose - spot it fast.
• Watch for the same word in two texts; only one uses it the way the question needs.
• When two texts seem to fit, pick the one with the exact detail the question asks for.
