Hi guys,
I’ve posted the answer below. If you have not completed this reading lesson, please do so before looking at the answers. Click here to complete the lesson: IELTS Reading Choose a Title
Answers
The correct answer is A
The opening paragraph and closing line both stress the same point which is about the popularity of coffee. While the first line alone or the last line alone might not themselves indicate aim, to have them both stressing the same point with so much detail in the first paragraph is something you can’t ignore.
There are no fixed rules about choosing a title. But you must remember that information for all options will be given in the passage. So, your aim is not to match information, but to decide what the whole aim of the passage is. You need to ask yourself – Why did this author write the passage? What was the aim of writing the passage? What was the key message that the author wanted to deliver?
So in this lesson, information about the producers and consumers was just extra information given in the passage for interest. But the main aim was to explain the popularity.
I hope you found this useful 🙂

Thank you so much Liz for opening my mind about the IELTS Tips.
You’re welcome 🙂
your teaching skills mam awsm supperbb no words for my mam liz🙏
yes it was very useful
In the end it’s all about “practice” if you are expecting from someone to make you clever then it’s never possible and if it’s then you made your self clever by just collecting tips of others. 🙂
Well said 🙂
Thank you Liz for all the tips, please I want to find out the difference between matching heading and choosing a title
Matching headings is when you match a heading to a paragraph. This means there are a number of paragraphs or sections and a number of headings. Each paragraph has a different heading. For titles, there is only ever one title for an article or reading passage. The title provides an overview of the whole passage – from beginning to end. Go to my FREE Lessons & Tips section on the red menu bar and select Listening – you’ll see examples.
