Then look at some notes a student made about the task. The student has made two mistakes. Can you correct them?  \nThe Identifying Information (True/False/Not Given) task tests your ability to find information in a reading passage, then to read it carefully to understand the details.  \nThis task is often used to test your understanding of a factual passage about a specific subject. On the question paper, you see a set of statements that report the information from the passage. Your job is to read the passage and decide if the statements are reporting the information correctly or not. For each statement, there are three possible answers:  \nTRUE if the statement agrees with the information  \nFALSE if the statement contradicts the information NOT GIVEN if there is no information about it  \nHere are the basic rules for the Identifying Information (True/False/Not Given) task:  \nn The statements follow the order of information in the passage.  \nn The statements are not exactly the same as the wording of the passage, but they contain the same information.  \nn The statements include some words and names that are also used in the passage. These help to locate the relevant information.  \nn You read this information carefully and compare it with the statement.  \nn You then decide if the statement reports the meaning of the passage exactly or not, and write TRUE or FALSE on the answer sheet.  \nn For some statements, there isn’t enough information in the passage to know if the statement is correct or not. In this case, you write NOT GIVEN on the answer sheet.  \n| 1 You’re mostly reading for facts and figures. |\n| --- |\n| 2 The questions are in the same order as the information in the passage. |\n| 3 The questions include some words you find in the passage. |\n| 4 The passage contains some information which is incorrect. |\n| 5 You have to tick (✓) the correct box on the answer sheet. |\n\nNotes  \n76 ACADEMIC READING  \nB Sample questions  \n2 Read the passage and answer the questions. Use the rules about the task from  \nSection A to help you. Then check your answers. Which questions did you find difficult?  \nIELTS PRACTICE TASK  \nMeasuring Snowfall  \nDespite the many high-tech instruments now available to scientists who study the weather, one measurement remains relatively difficult to make, and that’s calculating how much snow actually falls in any particular place during a snowstorm. This explains why the National Center for Atmospheric Research (NCAR) in the USA is experimenting with new ways of achieving a greater level of accuracy in snowfall figures. As their representative Ethan Guttmann points out,‘You’d think it was just a matter of going out and sticking a ruler in the snow and measuring how much is on the ground. The problem is, if you move the ruler over just a few centimetres, you may get a different reading.’  \nIn fact, the taking of measurements is complicated by a number of factors. For example, the first snowflakes may melt as soon as they hit warm surfaces, while others are whisked away by the wind, leaving some ground bare and other places buried under deep snowdrifts. Guttman’s colleagues have been testing a number of new snowmeasuring devices, including ultrasonic snow depth sensors, which send out a pulse of noise and measure how long it takes to bounce back from the surface below the snow, and laser sensors which work on the same basic principle but use light instead of sound. Another device for measuring snowfall is a type of open container with motor-vehicle antifreeze inside it. The antifreeze melts the snow as it falls and sensors measure the weight of the resulting liquid.  \nNCAR scientists have also experimented with using Global Positioning Satellites (GPS) to measure snow depth.
