Two questions

1) Is it legal to read the next part of listening test during the 30 seconds at the end of the previous section? (This implies turning the page before the track).

2) I did a small supposition in the task1 of writing. I spent about 20 words on it, and I had seen a similar example in the "IELTS trainer" book. I didn't give my personal opinion, but only an impersonal deduction based on the task's data. Will I lose marks?

Hello!

Q1 - Yes. The rule about turning pages only applies at the beginning of the test. NEVER open the booklet before the recording tells you in the listening test.

Q2 - T1 is impersonal, so I don't see a problem there, but 20 words is VERY short, so you will not get a good score.

All the best,
Mark
