B1 Reading: Ten practice tests for the Cambridge Preliminary

This edition of sample tests has been written to closely replicate the Cambridge exam experience, and has undergone rigorous expert and peer review. You or your students, if you are a teacher, will hopefully enjoy the wide range of assessment topics and benefit from the repetitive practice, something that is key to preparing for this part of the test.

The notices and texts in the Reading paper should be similar to those found in real-world settings. Candidates must demonstrate their ability to understand and operate in such environments by choosing the correct answer. They will be asked to show command of vocabulary and grammar, as well as understanding of how a text is structured. Candidates must understand details, general meaning, as well as the writers' attitudes and opinions.
