What is CELPIP Reading Part 2: Reading to Apply a Diagram?

A visual document beside an email about it: a course schedule, a price table, a floor plan, a comparison of three phone plans. The email discusses the diagram and has gaps, and you fill the gaps with facts from the diagram before answering questions that combine both sources.

How a practice set runs

Open the set; the timer starts, the diagram appears on the left and the email with its blanks on the right.
Complete the five blanks in the email by choosing the option the diagram supports.
Answer three drop-down questions that draw on both the email and the diagram.
Submit to see your score and, for every answer, the cell or label in the diagram that proves it.

What you answer

Eight drop-down answers: five blanks in the email and three questions. The options are usually real values from the diagram taken from the wrong row or column, so every answer is a lookup rather than a guess.

Example

Sample blank: 'The Tuesday evening class costs ... (choose: $45 / $60 / $75) for members.' Sample question: Which option in the table best suits Omar, who can only attend on weekends?

Skills and pitfalls

What CELPIP Reading Part 2 tests

Part 2 checks whether you can combine two sources: a visual document and an email that refers to it. Most answers need a detail from the diagram applied to a sentence in the email.

It also tests careful comparison. The options are often values that all appear somewhere in the diagram, and only one matches the row or column the email is talking about.

How practicing these sets helps

Diagrams vary in layout, and fifty sets expose you to schedules, tables, plans and comparisons of every shape. You learn to locate the deciding cell fast and to distrust any option you cannot point to in the diagram. The answer explanations name that cell for every question.

What you will see

A diagram such as a course schedule, a price table, a floor plan or a comparison of products or services.
An email that discusses the diagram and has five blanks to complete.
Three drop-down questions that ask you to apply information from both sources.

Skills you need

Reading tables, schedules and labelled images quickly
Cross-referencing a sentence in the email with the exact cell or label in the diagram
Handling conditions such as weekend rates or member discounts
Ignoring values that are true but belong to a different row

Common mistakes

Completing the email from the email alone without checking the diagram
Reading the wrong row or column because two labels look similar
Forgetting a condition stated in a footnote or heading
Choosing a value that is close but not the one the diagram shows

Strategy

How to improve in CELPIP Reading Part 2

Improve Reading Part 2 by practising the 5 habits below on timed sets and reviewing every explanation afterwards.

Study the diagram before the email
Spend the first minute on the diagram: its title, headings, units and any notes. Knowing its layout makes every later lookup faster.
For every blank, find the proof
Do not fill a blank until you can point to the row, cell or label in the diagram that supports it. If you cannot, you are guessing.
Read the headings and footnotes twice
Conditions such as per person, weekdays only or after 6 pm live in the small print. They decide more answers than the big numbers do.
Watch for near-miss options
Wrong options are usually real values from the diagram taken from the wrong row. Check the label, not just the number.
Use both sources for the three questions
The final questions often combine something the email says with something the diagram shows. Answer with both open in your mind.
