Task type 6

Sentence and Summary completion

In the IELTS Listening exam, you may have to complete sentences or a summary. This question type can be found in any section of the exam.

You have to complete the sentences or summary by writing the information yourself or choosing the answer from a list of options. The missing words must fit the space grammatically.

Summaries are shortened versions of information. They usually focus on key points and less on details.
