PTE ACADEMIC & CORE
PTE reading practice.
Understand why an answer fits.
Practise PTE reading with Swiftuni: fill in the blanks, re-order paragraphs and answer multiple-choice questions. Choose your exam, work through a passage and check the answers and explanations available for that question. Build understanding—not just a memory of the right option.
Choose Academic or Core in your account. Access depends on your plan and available usage tokens.
KNOW YOUR TASK
Five task types. More than one way to read.
Choose Academic or Core inside Swiftuni, then follow the instructions for the question you open.
Reading Fill in the Blanks
Read the whole passage before placing the available words into the gaps.
Re-order Paragraphs
Look for an opening idea, references and a logical sequence between paragraphs.
Multiple Choice, Single Answer
Identify what the question asks and compare each option with the passage.
Multiple Choice, Multiple Answers
Evaluate each option against the text rather than choosing by familiarity.
REVIEW WITH A PURPOSE
Know why the word belongs.
The actual explanation shown here connects each answer to the sentence: tracking describes collecting health information; detects describes recognising a change. This is more useful than simply remembering the position of an option.
Check the answer against the passage first, then read the explanation where one is available. If you chose differently, identify whether the difficulty was meaning, grammar or context.
Explore WordQuestA ROUTINE YOU CAN REPEAT
Make the review part of the practice.
Read for meaning
Identify the passage’s topic and how the ideas connect.
Make your choice
Use the text as evidence rather than guessing from a single familiar word.
Check the reasoning
Compare the answer with the surrounding language and available explanation.
Return with a purpose
Practise the pattern you missed on a different question.

A few things worth knowing.
Which PTE reading tasks are available?
Swiftuni includes Reading & Writing Fill in the Blanks, Reading Fill in the Blanks, Re-order Paragraphs, Multiple Choice Single Answer and Multiple Choice Multiple Answers. Follow the instructions for your selected exam and question.
Does every reading question have an explanation?
Use the answer and explanation tools shown for the individual question. Availability can vary; do not assume that every question has the same review tools.
Can I practise reading for PTE Core?
Select Core in Swiftuni before choosing your practice. Use the task instructions for that mode rather than assuming Academic and Core requirements are identical.
Is reading practice free?
Sign in to see the questions and features available to your account. Access can depend on your plan; not every question or additional feature is necessarily free.
How can I improve my reading vocabulary?
Review unfamiliar words in their sentence, then revisit them in another context. WordQuest offers another place to build an English practice habit alongside exam preparation.
