IBT July 29

This was my first test, hopefully I can get a good score.  I need to have 100.

I think I underestimated the reading section because I did it very well in the practice section provided by ets.  Or maybe I was too nervous and I couldn't concentrate in the reading section.  In addition, I was shocked because I thought I would do all questions in 100 minutes at once.  However, they were seperated in 3 sections, 20 minutes for the first section(1 passage), then two 40-minute sections, each section had two passages.  And I couldn't review(although I didn have time to do that) the previous sections.

I felt better starting from listening. 

Following are the questions.
