How to Do Yes No Not Given Questions in IELTS Reading?
Be Careful About Instructions
You should read the instructions well whether it is in the form of code Y/N/NG or words Yes/No/Not Given. Many students commit silly mistakes that they forget about the instruction and start answering the statements blindly without even reading instructions well. Some students even answer these questions by writing true false though these are yes no questions. So, always make sure about the instructions you are given and answer your questions accordingly.
Identify the Opinions from Passage
The biggest essential tip to consider for solving yes no not given questions is that you should be extra careful about the opinions given in the IELTS reading passage. Opinions are not directly given in the passage. You should be able to determine what the author wants to convey through his statements. You may think of it as something hidden in the sentences or something secret that you have to discover by reading the passage.
Now, you should first underline the keywords in the question statements and then, with the help of those keywords, you can find out the appropriate paragraph in the passage which relates to the question statement. Once you find the paragraph, you can then read it intensely to locate the right statement in the paragraph which refers to your question statement.
Now, you can read that statement and try to interpret its meaning. Keyword matching helps you to find the appropriate paragraph but you can find answer only by interpreting the meaning of the statement or by identifying the opinion of author such as whether he agrees or disagrees on a particular topic.
Notice Controlling Words in Statements
There are some controlling words that you should be careful about while solving yes no not given questions. For example, every time, never, some, always, ever, a little, a few etc. are some of the words that can change the meaning of a statement completely. These questions are likely to be no type of questions but can also be yes or not given questions. The thing is you should read the statements carefully when you find these controlling words.

The diagram illustrates the procedures followed in order to produce soft drinks.
Basically, There are five stages required to reach the final product starting from water that is must be cleaned and sterilized at first.
Cleaning Raw water is the process of passing water through water softener and chemicals after filtering it from impurities to be safe for use. Secondly, In the heating evaporation and carbonation stage, Water is pumped into electric heaters to be evaporated then move through cooling pipe for condensation and by addition of carbondioxide it becomes carbonated.
Consequently, Carbonated water enters mixing tank, This is the phase where colouring,syrup and flavour are added.
After filtering the water from the mixing tank, the mixture is now ready to be filled both in bottles and in cans.
The last stage for this process is packaging the bottles and cans in boxes in order to transport them to the supermarket to be available for consumption by the users.

the 21st century has witness some of the most impressive breakthrough in technology . While some people implemented them in shopping to make it easier , others think they will not . Today , i will discuss both of these beliefs.
First of all , it can be true that applying technology can bring us certain benefits such as the ability to browse anything at the buyer's will . For example , to look for water spinach , type that name onto a search bar , then it will automatically goes into your screen. In addition , using tech to buy things will make it less time -consuming as it will not need us to travel through a distant instead the things can be ordered remotely and delivered to us .
Though the advantages, applying mordern technology can complicate shopping , espeacially for the old , these genre of people are unfamiliar with online shopping and can find it hard to familiarize with it , as a consequent , their experience will be significant more frustrating. Another thing is that buying things online may pose some problems of frauding such as fake groceries , low-quality products,... . In addition , before being able to purchase, a payment method , which include some of your personal informations , will be needed , if not careful these informaions can be leaked and exposed
All in all . both views are equally deserved to be discussed and fully expand . while technology can make it simpler and less time-consuming to buy things , it also create problems.

Laws which are imposed by the authorities must be followed by every citizen. Giving freedom to an individual, so they can do whatever they want can cause serious problems. I totally agree to the statement that without any rules and regulations the country will fall in the chaos. In this essay we will discuss the effects of not having any rules in a society.
Firstly, rules are the boundaries for limiting problems in the society. Such as traffic laws in the society, If the there are no restriction to the speed limit the will be many deaths. People will use this freedom and not care about others at all. Risking many lives and numerus accidents on the other hand crossing only over the pedestrian can also danger many lives. Running across roads where the vehicles go in full speed is putting their life in danger.Example in many countries there is a fine imposed on an individual, who do not use the pedestrian to cross.
Where as there are many other reasons that show the importance of laws. Such as lettering in public, if there is not ristriction on where to dispose the garbage. People will start throwing letter everywhere, which creates land pollution. Above all this attracts harmful insects such as mosquito and flies etc. Increases the number of sickness and health expectancy reduces. Example in many undeveloped countries they still have problem in proper disposal of garbage and according to global standards the highest number of health issues and deaths are in these countries.
In conclusion, A set of rules imposed by the government is to keep it's citizen safe and secure. Not following them will have lead to destruction and problems to oneself. I completely agree this statement that a community in the society should follow it's laws as it is a beneficial for them.
The following diagram illustrates the process of making carbonated drinks at five different stages, each stages completing the mechanism with defferent machineries.
At stage one, raw water is being filtered and transfered to water softener to soften the water and then at stage two purified softened water is being heated using the electric heater and then passed through cooling pipes to cool down the heated water, after that they are passed through carbon dioxide gas so that the water particles reacts with carbon dioxide gas particles and get carbonated.
Carbonated water is then transferred to mixing tank, at stage five, inside the mixing tank, carbonated water, colouring, syrup and flavour are mixed all together at right amount then filtered out the excess chemicals and then transfer the pure coloured, flavoured, carbonated drink at stage four,
at stage four they are beng filled in bottles and cans after that at the final stage, bottles and cans are being wrapped and filled inside boxes, later shifted to supermarkets using delivery vans.
Could you please score my test and review it ?
