It was A based on the last few line of the paragraph which told about previous event happening in so n so dates like dat something it was mentioned.

and i think this was the very 1st question of that para info matching ryt?
It was the very first question for information matching in last section and the first paragraph (A) mentioned the event .....is that right

37- False ( media related)
38- true (four times)
39- true
40 - NG ( action in future)

Is this the ryt numbering ... this probably is ques number 34-37.

Section 3 started with ques number from 29 to 40 ryt?

First 5 of them were paragraph matching information then next 4 were T/F/NG and then last 3 name matching. I hope I am correct

Did u guys find the reading section 3 (Tusunga Event") to be difficult. I was surprised with the difficulty level of 3rd part and feel have made lots of mistake over there.
Yes, it was relatively difficult compared to what I have seen in Cambridge practice tests!
Regardless of difficulty, this passage has appeared in quite a few IELTS exam. I came across some historical posts talking about the Tunguska event in IELTS reading.

The answers I remember in section 3 are :-
Matching info

Original event similar to tusunga event - A
Wit issues of the event - C
Geographical destruction - B
evidence expected but not found - E
explanation not accepted , later accepted - G

SURENDRA VERMA - A (something related to thunder storm)
Then E OR D (one for meteors and the other for comets )
I think you we may have different order of the passage as an original event similar to Tunguska was not in A for me. It was somewhere after Surendra Verma. So should be in F or something.

Geographical destruction was for sure mentioned in B and C. In para C, it was to represent what scientists found when he visited the site (like match box-shaped trees and all). I did a mistake in this one - wrote C which I think is wrong. B is the correct one.

Its not different it was same passage... and yes the 1st ans to the paragraph matching is A. (passage tells about similar event in past)
I may be wrong but I read it in I think the second last paragraph that similar event happened in ~1506 and that too in late June so I wrote that Para!

Yes I’m guessing the order of the passage must be different
