The reason why I love short stories is that they don't contain | The INTELLECTUALS
The reason why I love short stories is that they don't contain unnecessary information and go straight to the point.
I've never liked long novels, where nature is described in several pages.
The colour of leaves, the whisper of the wind, the flow of water in a river...all these unnecessary details make me sick
Short stories, however, have more attention-to-detail and stronger words, as the writers don't focus on making the story longer. This really helped me in IELTS, 'cuz passages there closely resemble short stories.
When I first took the test, I didn't know any "secrets" but still got 8.5 in Reading without any thorough preparation. Later I achieved 9.0 in this section and that wasn't hard at all.
A lifelong reader doesn't need 'secrets' to get a high score in IELTS reading.
If you like short stories, the one I've posted above is likely to appeal to you...but at the same time it will break your heart.
