PTE Reading: Multiple Choice, Single Answer
One question, one right answer, one mark. No negative marking — so never leave it blank.
No negative marking here. Unlike the multiple-answer version, a wrong guess costs nothing. Always answer.
Strategy
- Answer the question asked — many distractors are true statements that do not answer it.
- Watch for absolutes: “always”, “never”, “only” are usually wrong in academic prose.
- Eliminate two, then choose.
