First and foremost, carefully read the passage or section and understand its main idea and purpose. Pay attention to the overall theme and the information presented. This will help you grasp the essence of the passage and identify the most relevant title.

Next, consider the tone and style of the passage. Is it informative, persuasive, or narrative? This will guide you in choosing a title that accurately reflects the overall tone and style of the passage.

Look for recurring keywords or phrases that capture the central idea or main theme. These keywords often provide clues to help you select an appropriate title. Consider the main points and arguments presented in the passage and choose a title that reflects these key elements.

When selecting a title, think about its broad and inclusive nature. A good title should encapsulate the main idea or purpose of the passage without being too specific or narrow. It should be able to cover the entire content of the passage or section.

Avoid titles that are overly generic or too similar to the headings or subheadings within the passage. Look for titles that capture the uniqueness and distinctiveness of the content. A strong title should entice readers and give them a clear sense of what to expect from the passage.

Pay attention to any contrasting or conflicting ideas presented in the passage. Consider whether the title you choose accurately represents the overall message, even if there are opposing viewpoints or multiple perspectives.

Allocate a specific amount of time for each question and avoid spending too much time deliberating on a single title. If you're uncertain about a title, make an educated guess and move on.

To enhance your skills in answering Choosing a Title questions, practice with a variety of authentic IELTS reading materials. Familiarize yourself with different question formats and expose yourself to diverse topics and writing styles.

La vida de Héctor (Spanish Podcast)

Mumbai II

Part 1 of 5. 

Inside a dusty workroom, an old craftsman held up a chess piece to the window. He rotated it in the sunlight and inspected its every detail. 

“Perfection,” said the craftsman. 

He added it to the set he had been building. Sixteen grey pieces sat on his worktable, all handmade and almost ready for sale. 

The craftsman felt very satisfied with his designs. He was ready for the final stage of the process. He picked up one of the pawn pieces and said, “What about you, my little friend? What colour would you like to be?” 

He reached for his paint brush, dunked it into glass of water and then into a container of paint. The grey pawn received a heavy coating of shiny white paint.

Fast-forward several years into the future. After repeated use and abuse, that little pawn’s proud white colour had faded. Areas of his original grey were visible. Because of this, whenever players assembled their chess set, they left this little grey-white pawn to the side. 

“Uhm, is that yours or mine?” said the white player. 

“It doesn’t matter. Put it back in the box and choose from the others,” said the black player. 

This little plastic pawn’s name was Gary.

大家好，我是Yuli。欢迎收听我的播客。
今天想和大家聊一聊【中国的学校】。
每个国家的教育制度都不太一样，今天我给大家介绍一下中国的情况。小孩子3岁可以开始上幼儿园，3-4岁是小班,4-5岁是中班,5-6岁是大班,6-7岁可以上小学。小学一共六年，小学一年级到六年级。中学包括初中和高中，都是3年，初一、初二、初三，高一、高二和高三。高三有一个很重要的考试，叫做高考。高考的成绩会决定你去上哪一个大学，读什么专业。考上清华北大，也就是清华大学和北京大学是每一个学生的梦想。
那每个学生高考都考一样的试卷吗？教育部会准备几套试卷给每个省选，有一些省会自己出试卷。除了普通的考生，还有一种考生叫高考特长生。他们一般有艺术或者体育的特长，高考分数的要求会低一些。中国的大学分本科和专科，本科一般读四年，专科读三年，一些特别的专业，例如医学专业需要五年。
那是每个中国孩子都能从幼儿园读到大学吗？不是的。在中国现在是九年义务教育，也就是小学六年和初中三年所有学生可以免费上。初中结束的时候有中考，中考的成绩决定你能不能考上高中。一般来说，如果你在好的高中读书，你的高考成绩会更好，更有机会考上好的大学，所以很多家长在初中开始就对孩子的学习成绩很着急。
你可能会问，如果考不上高中，应该怎么办呢？有的学生会选择复读，也就是再读一年初三，再参加一次中考；有的学生选择上职业学校。家庭条件好的学生可能选择出国留学，条件不好的学生只能直接工作。
中国的学校有两个学期，第一学期一般是9月1号开学，12月底开始放寒假；第二学期是2月开学，7月开始放暑假。具体开学和放假的日期每个学校会不太一样。
在你的国家教育制度是什么样的？留言告诉我吧。我们下期见。
