How to approach Table Completion
Table Completion gives you a table summarising information from the passage, with gaps to fill using words from the text within a word limit. The row and column labels tell you exactly what each gap needs, which makes the answers easy to locate once you read the table structure.
1
Read the table structure first
The row and column headings tell you what kind of information each gap needs.
2
Predict the missing word
Use the headings to decide whether the gap is a number, a name, a date or a feature.
3
Find the matching section
Scan the passage for the row or column keyword and read the surrounding text closely.
4
Fill the gap exactly
Copy the word from the passage within the word limit and keep the spelling exact.
5
Check the gap fits the heading
Confirm your answer matches the category the row and column describe.
Common mistakes to avoid
✗Filling a gap without reading the row and column labels.
✓The labels define what the gap needs. Read them before you search the text.
✗Exceeding the word limit.
✓Stay within the stated limit and use words from the passage.
✗Putting a correct fact in the wrong cell.
✓Match the answer to the right row and column, not just the right topic.
