i think answer to question 3 was FALSE and not NOT GIVEN
because it was clearly mentioned in the passage that fees was charged based on the facilities availed which clearly indicated it was not based on geography. At least that is what i thought while attempting this answer, i may be wrong though

and answer to question 35 was also about the queen because i clearly remember queen was the answer for 2 of the questions

Hi, The first answer i remember i wrote as "PITTENS" . Great job in remembering answers.And section 3 was choosing correct letter like A,B,,, right?
yes thats right its better to say the answer because you wont remember which letter we choose so i did that way. Was there anything different from what you choose. Can you check on reading as well please.

Hi Kashif,
I used to do such mistakes , until someone told me : never select False if it is not the "opposite" of a statement in the paragraph!
For me , I think "fees were charged based on the facilities availed" is not the opposite of "Fees are based on the geographical location of the park"
that's why I chose Not Given. It's a bit tricky and you never know what do they accept: False or Not Given!

Fair enough thats also one logic to attempt that question
From my experience after practicing around 20 different ielts reading tests, im never actually sure of the answer in such tricky questions.. I'm hopeful to score above 34 inshaAllah even if i get that wrong though :)
Let's hope we all get our desired band :)
