00:00:00,930 --> 00:00:04,770
Hello there and welcome to another strategy video.

2
00:00:04,800 --> 00:00:11,730
In this strategy video, we're going to be going over three different question types, three different

3
00:00:11,730 --> 00:00:12,600
question types.

4
00:00:12,600 --> 00:00:18,240
We're going through a complete we're going through a complete reading passage.

5
00:00:18,240 --> 00:00:23,340
That means we're doing all the different questions in this reading passage.

6
00:00:23,490 --> 00:00:29,970
Whenever you have a situation on the on the general exam where you have three different question types,

7
00:00:30,180 --> 00:00:35,610
you're always in section number three when you have one reading passage with three different question

8
00:00:35,610 --> 00:00:41,430
types for that one reading passage, that means that the set up is exactly what you would have, is

9
00:00:41,430 --> 00:00:45,000
similar to what you have, almost exactly what you would have on the academic test.

10
00:00:46,530 --> 00:00:53,460
So if you're taking the academic test going through or listening to this lecture, as I break down the

11
00:00:53,460 --> 00:00:58,710
question, strategy, strategy is actually great for you also if you're an academic student.

12
00:00:58,980 --> 00:00:59,310
All right.

13
00:00:59,310 --> 00:01:02,070
So today we're dealing with.

14
00:01:06,360 --> 00:01:13,950
We're dealing with a paragraph location question, a summary question and a yes no, not given question.

15
00:01:15,360 --> 00:01:21,270
Now, you have seen me talk about the yes no, not giving question several times and the other videos.

16
00:01:21,600 --> 00:01:25,050
So I'm not going to go real deep into the strategy.

17
00:01:25,080 --> 00:01:28,350
You've also seen me heard me talk about the summary question.

18
00:01:29,100 --> 00:01:33,150
The new one that we have here that we're dealing with is the paragraph location question.

19
00:01:34,290 --> 00:01:39,330
The paragraph location question is one of the most difficult questions for most students to manage,

20
00:01:39,480 --> 00:01:42,150
and that's because they go about doing it wrong.

21
00:01:42,330 --> 00:01:45,160
If you look at the strategy here, this is what we're talking about.

22
00:01:45,210 --> 00:01:47,760
Number one, do it last.

23
00:01:48,840 --> 00:01:49,810
Do it last.

24
00:01:49,830 --> 00:01:52,920
If it's in a set of three like year, do it last.

25
00:01:53,700 --> 00:01:55,800
Most of the time you're going to see this one in passage.

26
00:01:55,830 --> 00:02:01,110
Number three, underline underline the keywords and the questions.

27
00:02:01,370 --> 00:02:01,600
Right.

28
00:02:01,620 --> 00:02:07,770
Even though you're doing it last, even though you're doing it last, go ahead and underline the go

29
00:02:07,770 --> 00:02:12,630
ahead and underline those questions or underlying those key words in the questions.

30
00:02:13,590 --> 00:02:14,130
All right.

31
00:02:15,570 --> 00:02:21,090
For this to do to do well for this question, you got to pay attention to the topic sentences as very

32
00:02:21,090 --> 00:02:25,890
often these point to if that paragraph has the question, statement, information.

33
00:02:27,000 --> 00:02:27,300
All right.

34
00:02:27,300 --> 00:02:29,760
This question can be quite time consuming.

35
00:02:30,180 --> 00:02:35,430
So you do the other questions first, like for this question said we would do the yes no, not given

36
00:02:35,430 --> 00:02:42,720
question first, then we would do the summary question and then we would do the paragraph location question.

37
00:02:42,750 --> 00:02:49,710
However, like I said, we're going to look at the we're still going to first underline or highlight

38
00:02:49,710 --> 00:02:52,350
the key words in the paragraph location question.

39
00:02:52,800 --> 00:02:58,350
That way, when I'm doing the yes no not giving question or in the summary question, I can look out

40
00:02:58,350 --> 00:03:01,590
for those keywords from the paragraph location question.

41
00:03:01,590 --> 00:03:02,910
So I hope that makes sense.

42
00:03:03,030 --> 00:03:06,840
Maybe I'll make more sense as I'm going through the question with you guys.

43
00:03:09,450 --> 00:03:09,870
All right.

44
00:03:09,870 --> 00:03:14,670
So let's go ahead and move through this reading passage.

45
00:03:16,170 --> 00:03:16,980
You're going go ahead.

46
00:03:16,980 --> 00:03:22,710
And if you need to pause the video and take the time and review the strategy for the summary question

47
00:03:22,710 --> 00:03:25,710
and review the strategy for the yes no, not given question.

48
00:03:26,900 --> 00:03:32,820
We've hit that a couple of times already, so you should be familiar with that strategy already.

49
00:03:34,020 --> 00:03:34,710
So

50
00:03:37,230 --> 00:03:38,640
here we go.

51
00:03:39,330 --> 00:03:43,020
We're talking about the mass appeal of the mantra.

52
00:03:43,530 --> 00:03:46,370
Now, some of you might say, I don't know what a manta ray is.

53
00:03:46,410 --> 00:03:47,400
Doesn't matter.

54
00:03:48,870 --> 00:03:49,770
It doesn't matter.

55
00:03:52,350 --> 00:03:53,030
It doesn't matter.

56
00:03:53,040 --> 00:03:54,720
Eventually you'll find out what it is.

57
00:03:54,720 --> 00:03:57,060
But don't let that freak you out.

58
00:04:00,310 --> 00:04:04,900
We have our paragraph location question 28, 29 and 30.

59
00:04:06,930 --> 00:04:09,450
We have our true false given question.

60
00:04:11,360 --> 00:04:13,610
We have our summary question.

61
00:04:15,470 --> 00:04:24,170
So we have all three of these question types that we have to do, and we're going to do the true false

62
00:04:24,350 --> 00:04:25,970
giving question first.

63
00:04:25,970 --> 00:04:33,050
But like I say, I'm going to go ahead and look at my keywords that I need to watch out for while I'm

64
00:04:33,050 --> 00:04:37,280
doing the other questions like this question is asking.

65
00:04:38,850 --> 00:04:41,460
Which paragraph mentions the following?

66
00:04:43,160 --> 00:04:46,730
All right, we need a paragraph that's talking about a record being kept.

67
00:04:48,770 --> 00:04:50,870
We need a paragraph talking about.

68
00:04:53,410 --> 00:04:56,740
Something the writer regrets.

69
00:04:57,930 --> 00:04:59,290
You know what's interesting?

70
00:04:59,620 --> 00:05:03,010
And we need a paragraph that's talking about the reason.

71
00:05:05,040 --> 00:05:07,560
Reason for the writer's visit.

72
00:05:08,430 --> 00:05:09,810
Reason for his visit.

73
00:05:10,920 --> 00:05:15,360
So we want to burn down, burn those keywords in our mind.

74
00:05:15,360 --> 00:05:21,300
We need a paragraph talking about records being kept of the manta rays and a paragraph talking about

75
00:05:21,300 --> 00:05:23,400
something the writer regrets.

76
00:05:23,910 --> 00:05:26,670
And we need a paragraph talking about a reason for the writer's visit.

77
00:05:28,320 --> 00:05:35,610
One thing that we'll notice is that it doesn't say in the directions.

78
00:05:35,610 --> 00:05:38,220
It doesn't say we can use a paragraph more than once.

79
00:05:39,180 --> 00:05:41,580
It doesn't say we can use a paragraph more than once.

80
00:05:43,560 --> 00:05:44,250
Excuse me.

81
00:05:44,460 --> 00:05:48,540
So we have to notice that our always pay attention to our directions.

82
00:05:49,200 --> 00:05:52,020
So let's first start with our true false, not given question.

83
00:05:54,720 --> 00:05:54,990
All right.

84
00:05:54,990 --> 00:06:01,320
Now, when we look at the true, false, not given question, if you remember the strategy, if you

85
00:06:01,320 --> 00:06:08,040
remember the strategy, we are always going to look first and see which questions are the easiest to

86
00:06:08,040 --> 00:06:08,940
do first.

87
00:06:08,940 --> 00:06:10,720
And right off the.

88
00:06:10,740 --> 00:06:11,970
Right off the bat.

89
00:06:13,440 --> 00:06:13,810
Okay.

90
00:06:14,030 --> 00:06:16,310
That right off the bat means from the start.

91
00:06:19,800 --> 00:06:20,200
Right.

92
00:06:20,220 --> 00:06:25,260
Really good to use in speaking section if you want to sound like a native speaker right off the bat.

93
00:06:27,220 --> 00:06:29,260
Two names, right?

94
00:06:29,260 --> 00:06:32,320
Guy Stevens and Mohamed Nasheed.

95
00:06:33,880 --> 00:06:36,100
Those are going to be really easy to find.

96
00:06:37,600 --> 00:06:38,260
All right.

97
00:06:39,010 --> 00:06:39,970
And.

98
00:06:42,890 --> 00:06:46,250
For Guy Stevens is also going to talk about this word here.

99
00:06:47,000 --> 00:06:59,480
And number 32, hotel guests, key words, our hotel guests and arranged on short notice something about

100
00:06:59,480 --> 00:07:04,910
hotel guests and viewing mantas arranged on short notice.

101
00:07:06,710 --> 00:07:10,250
Number 31, difficult to distinguish.

102
00:07:12,590 --> 00:07:13,730
Difficult to distinguish.

103
00:07:13,730 --> 00:07:17,450
The man to man does not really a key word.

104
00:07:17,480 --> 00:07:18,950
You will see that everywhere.

105
00:07:22,960 --> 00:07:23,560
All right.

106
00:07:24,460 --> 00:07:27,550
Matt appeared to object to the presence of people.

107
00:07:27,580 --> 00:07:29,020
That's what that one's about.

108
00:07:30,850 --> 00:07:35,230
And number 36 is a procedure.

109
00:07:39,370 --> 00:07:40,630
Established.

110
00:07:43,700 --> 00:07:44,960
Control.

111
00:07:48,270 --> 00:07:49,170
Visitors.

112
00:07:50,640 --> 00:07:51,030
Okay.

113
00:07:51,360 --> 00:08:01,650
So let's go ahead and I'm going to first go through the the scanning and just showing you again that

114
00:08:01,650 --> 00:08:03,300
these sentences go in order.

115
00:08:03,570 --> 00:08:12,300
And then in a separate document, we'll go through the breakdown of answering the questions, really

116
00:08:12,300 --> 00:08:17,520
applying the true false not given strategy in terms of answering these questions and question types.

117
00:08:18,360 --> 00:08:18,720
All right.

118
00:08:18,720 --> 00:08:19,410
So.

119
00:08:22,180 --> 00:08:23,170
One moment.

120
00:08:25,060 --> 00:08:30,940
So let's go ahead and move forward and find where these instances are.

121
00:08:32,050 --> 00:08:32,500
All right.

122
00:08:32,500 --> 00:08:33,280
So.

123
00:08:36,750 --> 00:08:40,100
There is Muhammad Nasheed right there.

124
00:08:42,800 --> 00:08:43,580
Okay.

125
00:08:44,570 --> 00:08:49,370
And when we're doing this, and especially dealing with and dealing with the name, we have to always

126
00:08:49,370 --> 00:08:56,620
check and make sure that we are able to that the name doesn't appear more than one time.

127
00:08:56,630 --> 00:09:00,260
We definitely want to make sure about that, that the name doesn't appear more than one time.

128
00:09:01,430 --> 00:09:08,780
Mohamed Nasheed is Mohamed Nasheed and also was talking about I guess we should have finished this out

129
00:09:10,640 --> 00:09:12,770
persuading other countries.

130
00:09:13,100 --> 00:09:19,130
And for Guy Stevens, we always want to look we always want to know the we have a strong verb like concerned

131
00:09:19,130 --> 00:09:20,480
or what is he worried about?

132
00:09:20,660 --> 00:09:23,660
Because that helps, you know, if you're in the right sentence or not also.

133
00:09:24,980 --> 00:09:32,990
So, Mohamed, we're talking about something about other countries and here is Mohammed's name.

134
00:09:33,170 --> 00:09:39,710
And also be aware be aware of when they're giving somebodies name, be aware of the second sentence

135
00:09:39,710 --> 00:09:42,170
because it's probably going to be using a reference pronoun.

136
00:09:43,640 --> 00:09:49,190
So this is actually the sentence that we should be looking at because it's talking about something with

137
00:09:49,190 --> 00:09:50,330
world leaders.

138
00:09:50,750 --> 00:09:57,410
And the question is asking about what he said to world leaders or try to convince the world.

139
00:09:57,620 --> 00:10:00,320
So that's going to be probably our sentence for that one.

140
00:10:01,220 --> 00:10:02,450
Here we see Guy.

141
00:10:04,320 --> 00:10:05,040
Right here.

142
00:10:05,070 --> 00:10:13,110
Now, I know that there's going to be one another space where we see guy because they don't have his

143
00:10:13,110 --> 00:10:15,630
full name here.

144
00:10:15,630 --> 00:10:16,710
They don't have his full name.

145
00:10:16,710 --> 00:10:19,410
And yes, you see me as I'm scanning up.

146
00:10:20,190 --> 00:10:20,420
Right?

147
00:10:20,460 --> 00:10:21,780
I'm scanning up.

148
00:10:21,780 --> 00:10:25,920
And one reason I'm doing that is it helps me to not read.

149
00:10:26,880 --> 00:10:33,630
Sometimes I like to scan up or scan from right to left when I use me, scan from right to left.

150
00:10:33,630 --> 00:10:33,750
What?

151
00:10:33,750 --> 00:10:40,590
I'm looking for certain words, because it helped me to avoid actually the process of reading, which

152
00:10:40,590 --> 00:10:43,530
slows me down right now.

153
00:10:43,530 --> 00:10:49,740
This is probably going to be our correct sentence because I see this language that says it's something

154
00:10:49,740 --> 00:10:52,200
that guy has been monitoring closely.

155
00:10:52,950 --> 00:10:56,640
If these when he hears a synonym language right here, everybody, this is an example.

156
00:10:56,640 --> 00:10:58,740
This is an example of synonym language.

157
00:10:58,920 --> 00:11:04,170
If it says it's something that he's been monitoring closely, that means it's something he's been worried

158
00:11:04,170 --> 00:11:04,710
about.

159
00:11:05,280 --> 00:11:14,910
Now I'm I'm going to need to check to make sure that there aren't other sentences with the name guy

160
00:11:14,910 --> 00:11:16,740
where it has that has synonym language.

161
00:11:16,740 --> 00:11:17,280
Right.

162
00:11:17,280 --> 00:11:23,820
Because if you see if we see his name someplace else, that other sentence where we see his name has

163
00:11:23,820 --> 00:11:29,190
to have synonym language for is concerned about or worried about or like it says here is monitoring

164
00:11:29,190 --> 00:11:30,030
closely.

165
00:11:30,880 --> 00:11:31,030
Right.

166
00:11:31,110 --> 00:11:37,560
So for right now, it looks like number 35 is right here.

167
00:11:39,600 --> 00:11:48,930
That's our comparison sentence for number 35 and this right here, whereas quoting him is our comparison

168
00:11:48,930 --> 00:11:50,670
sentence for 34.

169
00:11:53,250 --> 00:11:53,580
All right.

170
00:11:53,580 --> 00:11:56,580
Now we're going to see guys someplace else.

171
00:11:56,580 --> 00:11:57,190
And here we go.

172
00:11:57,210 --> 00:12:01,470
Here's Guy also feeding events as Guy calls him.

173
00:12:01,470 --> 00:12:05,220
I never guaranteed nothing in this sentence about being worried.

174
00:12:06,090 --> 00:12:11,610
If Guy and his research center's research assistants spot significant manta activity, the gifts will

175
00:12:11,610 --> 00:12:12,360
be brought.

176
00:12:12,390 --> 00:12:14,130
Nothing in there about nothing.

177
00:12:14,130 --> 00:12:15,330
No language.

178
00:12:16,430 --> 00:12:18,290
Guy Stevens is my guide.

179
00:12:19,400 --> 00:12:26,360
There is no language in this sentence that has a synonym for worried or concerned.

180
00:12:27,980 --> 00:12:30,020
That's how I know we see Guy here.

181
00:12:30,020 --> 00:12:31,480
But look at that sentence.

182
00:12:31,490 --> 00:12:32,300
Look at it.

183
00:12:32,870 --> 00:12:35,890
Is there any synonym language for a worried or concerned?

184
00:12:35,900 --> 00:12:36,350
No.

185
00:12:36,370 --> 00:12:37,770
So that's not our sentence.

186
00:12:37,790 --> 00:12:39,770
Look at this sentence where you see guy.

187
00:12:40,040 --> 00:12:42,480
Is there any synonym language for worried or concerned?

188
00:12:42,500 --> 00:12:43,190
No.

189
00:12:44,900 --> 00:12:47,540
So that's our sentence, right?

190
00:12:47,540 --> 00:12:52,880
And like I said, they're not going to put, you know, this sentence.

191
00:12:52,880 --> 00:12:57,200
They're not what they're not going to do on the exam is this they're not going to have this sentence

192
00:12:57,200 --> 00:13:04,010
with the word guy or name guy and language that means something he's monitoring closely, which means

193
00:13:04,010 --> 00:13:08,990
which is a synonym for concerned about and have another sentence with that same language.

194
00:13:08,990 --> 00:13:10,520
They're not going to do that.

195
00:13:11,990 --> 00:13:13,040
They're not going to do that.

196
00:13:13,040 --> 00:13:16,970
And you need to be confident about that because it's going to help you go faster.

197
00:13:17,960 --> 00:13:19,880
So we know where 34 and 35 are.

198
00:13:20,630 --> 00:13:27,170
That means that 36 is below 34 and 33, 32 and 31 are above there.

199
00:13:27,170 --> 00:13:32,480
But I found those too quickly and if I were doing the real exam, I would have gone ahead and answered

200
00:13:32,480 --> 00:13:34,640
number 34 and 35 right away.

201
00:13:35,120 --> 00:13:37,310
Right away, without any hesitation.

202
00:13:37,400 --> 00:13:46,880
I would not have I would not have gone ahead and try to answer or find all the sentences first and then

203
00:13:46,880 --> 00:13:47,660
start answering.

204
00:13:47,660 --> 00:13:48,860
So I wouldn't have done that.

205
00:13:50,900 --> 00:13:52,310
Let's go ahead and keep looking.

206
00:13:53,690 --> 00:14:00,620
Something about number 33 is meant to raise appear to be the object appear to object to the presence

207
00:14:00,620 --> 00:14:01,190
of people.

208
00:14:01,190 --> 00:14:07,760
So I'm looking for a language with people and manta rays and language that means the same as objection.

209
00:14:21,150 --> 00:14:21,750
OC.

210
00:14:25,130 --> 00:14:25,370
All right.

211
00:14:25,370 --> 00:14:26,840
I see the language already.

212
00:14:30,550 --> 00:14:30,910
All right.

213
00:14:30,910 --> 00:14:35,170
So they seem not to mind.

214
00:14:36,070 --> 00:14:36,400
All right.

215
00:14:36,400 --> 00:14:38,350
They is referring to the mantis.

216
00:14:40,300 --> 00:14:40,970
All right.

217
00:14:40,990 --> 00:14:43,900
And there's synonym for people, which is human.

218
00:14:45,250 --> 00:14:48,760
That means this is where number I think is 33.

219
00:14:49,750 --> 00:14:52,030
This is where number 33 is.

220
00:14:59,480 --> 00:15:02,480
And 32 is for hotel guests.

221
00:15:02,480 --> 00:15:09,140
Viewing the manta viewing the mantra of feeding has to be arranged at short notice.

222
00:15:14,640 --> 00:15:14,960
Okay.

223
00:15:14,970 --> 00:15:15,810
There it is.

224
00:15:15,840 --> 00:15:17,160
Feeding events.

225
00:15:19,300 --> 00:15:20,750
Hotel guests.

226
00:15:21,610 --> 00:15:21,880
All right.

227
00:15:21,880 --> 00:15:23,470
Feeding events and hotel guests.

228
00:15:23,470 --> 00:15:26,320
That means that that's that sentence there.

229
00:15:27,100 --> 00:15:32,170
Like I said, there's not going to be another not going to be two sentences with both with all the same

230
00:15:32,170 --> 00:15:32,950
language.

231
00:15:33,550 --> 00:15:34,150
All right.

232
00:15:36,820 --> 00:15:40,010
That's our sentence for this one.

233
00:15:40,030 --> 00:15:41,740
That's for number 32.

234
00:15:42,100 --> 00:15:44,800
And as you see, the questions go in order.

235
00:15:46,330 --> 00:15:47,610
The question is go in order.

236
00:15:47,620 --> 00:15:49,720
That's where number 32 is.

237
00:15:50,830 --> 00:15:55,780
And what I'm doing here, everybody is I'm doing this because I'm just going through a scanning exercise.

238
00:15:56,530 --> 00:15:56,980
Right?

239
00:15:56,980 --> 00:16:01,000
I'm scanning for matching language or keywords from the question.

240
00:16:01,000 --> 00:16:02,650
So I know where the sentences are.

241
00:16:04,130 --> 00:16:11,950
And I'm just I'm just showing you, Howard, number 31, it is difficult to distinguish one manta ray

242
00:16:11,950 --> 00:16:12,970
from another.

243
00:16:13,300 --> 00:16:15,220
Difficult to distinguish.

244
00:16:19,380 --> 00:16:22,290
I'm looking for a language that deals with distinguishing.

245
00:16:23,650 --> 00:16:24,890
And I see it already.

246
00:16:26,090 --> 00:16:26,230
Right.

247
00:16:26,440 --> 00:16:27,490
I'm not really reading.

248
00:16:27,490 --> 00:16:32,410
I'm just I'm actually scanning up and down looking for synonyms.

249
00:16:34,950 --> 00:16:36,200
I know that may seem strange.

250
00:16:36,210 --> 00:16:40,740
Some people like to go right to left, as if almost as if you were reading Arabic.

251
00:16:40,740 --> 00:16:50,940
So if you're one of my students that are from Saudi Arabia or from Egypt and you actually read or you

252
00:16:50,940 --> 00:16:56,250
actually have a language that goes from right to left, it's actually pretty it's not going to be easy.

253
00:16:56,250 --> 00:17:01,650
But actually, you should be more comfortable scanning that way, scan that way, scan.

254
00:17:01,650 --> 00:17:07,950
When you're scanning for a synonym language from four questions, do it as if you're doing it, as if

255
00:17:07,950 --> 00:17:11,130
you're writing Arabic and go from right to left.

256
00:17:11,550 --> 00:17:12,300
That way you are.

257
00:17:12,330 --> 00:17:16,230
You're avoiding reading and you're just looking for synonym language to know where your sentences are.

258
00:17:16,260 --> 00:17:16,590
All right.

259
00:17:16,590 --> 00:17:17,280
Here's our other one.

260
00:17:17,280 --> 00:17:23,040
Right here is their distinctive skin patterns.

261
00:17:26,190 --> 00:17:32,610
So that deals with distinguishing distinctive and distinguishing or synonyms.

262
00:17:33,900 --> 00:17:40,230
And that means that number 31 is right there in that sentence.
