WEBVTT 00:01.200 --> 00:02.350 Hello there everybody. 00:02.460 --> 00:08.420 And now it is time for a nother strategy video for the general reading. 00:08.790 --> 00:17.430 Thank you so much for joining me today and I hope today in this video you're going to learn a lot about 00:17.430 --> 00:20.820 how to handle the short answer question. 00:21.090 --> 00:27.330 The short answer question is a question type where you'll see a full question with a question mark at 00:27.330 --> 00:28.080 the end. 00:28.400 --> 00:29.050 OK. 00:29.340 --> 00:39.040 And it's very important with a short answer question that you actually pay attention to the directions. 00:40.050 --> 00:40.660 Right. 00:40.680 --> 00:44.880 Like here for example read the directions take take 10 seconds and read the directions 00:48.250 --> 00:49.060 right. 00:49.080 --> 00:52.900 It says no more than two words and or a number. 00:54.020 --> 00:56.160 No more than two words in a number. 00:58.330 --> 01:08.530 And that's very important because if you write three words answers wrong your answer is wrong. 01:08.830 --> 01:11.030 You can't put multiple answers. 01:11.230 --> 01:12.980 You can't write more than two words. 01:12.990 --> 01:18.200 Yes a and b count as a word. 01:18.230 --> 01:21.870 All right so let's go ahead and look at the strategy. 01:21.910 --> 01:26.330 We're going to pause for a second and we're going to have a page and look at strategy for the yes no 01:26.500 --> 01:27.650 given question. 01:30.620 --> 01:31.050 OK. 01:31.070 --> 01:38.630 So let's take a look at the strategy for the short answer question is like most short answer just like 01:38.630 --> 01:42.600 the other questions in this area of the strategy chart. 01:43.220 --> 01:46.200 The short answer question and goes in order. 01:47.180 --> 01:51.980 You want to rephrase the questions and spot the easiest ones to do first underline the keywords in the 01:51.980 --> 01:57.860 question scan and find the matching sentence to your first Easy's question and find the language in 01:57.860 --> 02:00.450 the passage sentence that answers the question. 02:00.620 --> 02:01.900 Write the answer. 02:01.910 --> 02:04.370 Pay attention to the. 02:04.460 --> 02:09.740 Pay attention pay attention pay attention pay attention to the instructions because if you write to 02:09.740 --> 02:12.430 read the words you're going to get it marked wrong. 02:12.930 --> 02:20.430 OK you want to get Mark wrong so go back and look at what we're dealing with for this short answer question. 02:20.480 --> 02:23.130 This is from Book Number 12. 02:23.150 --> 02:26.850 It is the North Sydney Council. 02:27.200 --> 02:36.620 If you are working along with us please make sure that you stop the tape right here and you can do this 02:36.620 --> 02:40.670 question yourself and then come back and check your answers. 02:40.850 --> 02:43.400 So I hope that you have purchased the book number 12. 02:43.410 --> 02:50.110 Book Number 13 and you're able to follow along with us and stop the tape and work on your own. 02:50.150 --> 02:55.930 And then Scheckter your quote your answers and strategy during our explanation. 03:04.510 --> 03:08.020 All right so let's look at our questions. 03:08.020 --> 03:12.850 Is there anything easier to do first to hear something. 03:13.420 --> 03:21.910 The financial advice program the financial advice program. 03:23.500 --> 03:26.200 That will be really easy to find. 03:26.920 --> 03:32.680 This passage is really short and so everything is going to be like right next to each other you see 03:32.680 --> 03:36.210 we have like see we have six questions. 03:36.210 --> 03:39.610 That means everything is going to be really really close together. 03:40.150 --> 03:45.660 Financial advice program is probably going to be very easy to find in terms of number 19. 03:45.670 --> 03:48.270 And that means that everything else will be above that. 03:48.730 --> 03:55.600 So if I were doing a real exam I would probably do number 19 first and then I know Number 20 is directly 03:55.600 --> 04:03.640 after that and then I know Number 18 to 15 are above that in order. 04:03.640 --> 04:04.200 All right. 04:04.570 --> 04:08.120 Let's go through and look at our questions look at the keywords. 04:09.130 --> 04:14.260 Like I say if I were doing the real exam I would jump right into 19 find an answer then move to the 04:14.260 --> 04:15.150 next one. 04:15.550 --> 04:16.150 OK. 04:16.350 --> 04:21.160 And that's that's what we would do when the real exam but not right now trying to point out to you in 04:21.160 --> 04:23.600 terms of what are key words. 04:24.670 --> 04:28.790 So which employees 04:37.050 --> 04:39.930 and not work regular hours. 04:43.190 --> 04:49.740 This is going to be a scientist is talking about looking after relative. 04:50.080 --> 04:54.480 What does it mean when it says look after a relative somebody who's sick. 04:54.550 --> 05:00.330 All right this next one we're dealing with a choice between two alternative periods of time. 05:00.330 --> 05:01.980 That means we're looking for two time periods. 05:01.980 --> 05:05.900 Next Which other. 05:07.780 --> 05:14.300 This next one is going to be about additional holidays being entitled to additional holidays. 05:20.080 --> 05:25.070 And so was talking about how long must you work how long must you work to get it. 05:25.110 --> 05:31.060 You know holidays were without a break. 05:32.180 --> 05:46.240 And we're talking about professional employees that you can see Professor employees you can see OK. 05:46.530 --> 05:50.100 So go ahead and look through that and see. 05:50.100 --> 05:57.370 So number 19 is what does the what does the financial devise program advise. 05:57.600 --> 06:01.310 What does the financial advice program advise to people about. 06:02.220 --> 06:11.100 All right so our financial advice program is right now would you define what kind of advice they give. 06:11.100 --> 06:16.920 So the worst financial advice program this is an example of a starting point you've heard me talk about 06:16.920 --> 06:18.350 this and the other sentences. 06:18.360 --> 06:23.670 This is a starting point but this isn't this isn't a sentence it has all the information. 06:23.820 --> 06:31.290 The census has our information is right here because he's talking about advisers. 06:31.740 --> 06:32.650 Right. 06:33.210 --> 06:38.410 We provide the services of advisors specializing in pensions. 06:38.580 --> 06:45.380 So our hair answer they were looking for is dealing with pinchin. 06:46.250 --> 06:47.910 Right. 06:48.240 --> 06:49.560 We're dealing with pensions 06:54.830 --> 07:02.630 and pensions is our answer for that one right is to want to be the word pensions. 07:03.270 --> 07:13.640 And so now let's go ahead and mark that as our answer for number 19. 07:13.910 --> 07:15.820 We're dealing with pinchin. 07:16.520 --> 07:17.550 OK. 07:18.110 --> 07:32.850 And now let's go here and look at doing our next word. 07:32.860 --> 07:35.790 All right here's our next one I see it right now. 07:36.640 --> 07:42.340 Our next one deals with this to remind you I'm sorry what's the next one I wasn't clear on doing number 07:42.340 --> 07:43.030 18. 07:43.030 --> 07:48.960 How long must the employees have work without a break before being entitled. 07:49.060 --> 07:52.840 How long must employees of work without a break before being entitled to it. 07:52.990 --> 07:55.210 So working without a break. 07:55.210 --> 07:58.320 Again remember they love to use that language. 07:58.390 --> 08:01.980 So what I'm looking at a passage I'm looking for a synonym language. 08:02.000 --> 08:04.010 Now you may know where he's going backwards. 08:04.030 --> 08:06.840 He's went from 19 up to 15. 08:06.850 --> 08:12.880 Actually sometimes I like scanning in that direction in the opposite direction of the passage instead 08:12.880 --> 08:15.310 of going scanning down. 08:15.550 --> 08:24.940 I like to stand up sometimes because when I'm scanning up I'm looking for word lane which I'm not reading 08:26.140 --> 08:30.970 right I'm not reading this so that's why when you understand skimming and scanning you understand there 08:30.970 --> 08:34.430 are different ways to do it and it doesn't involve reading. 08:34.780 --> 08:40.540 So when I'm scanning the up I'm looking for people that work I'm looking for a lane which means the 08:40.540 --> 08:41.710 same thing as 08:44.700 --> 08:47.370 same thing as working without a break. 08:47.410 --> 08:56.610 So when I'm scanning up I see right here it talks about right here talks about after five years 09:00.060 --> 09:05.220 five years of continuous service 09:07.940 --> 09:13.700 right five years of continuous service so assayers after five years of a continuous continuous service 09:14.180 --> 09:18.590 employees are entitled to 6.5 weeks of long service leave. 09:18.740 --> 09:19.000 Right. 09:19.010 --> 09:21.820 But after five years of continuous service. 09:21.910 --> 09:31.070 So our answer for that next question is going to be five years. 09:31.220 --> 09:31.990 Right. 09:32.540 --> 09:37.060 Because this is how long how long how long. 09:37.310 --> 09:40.610 So our answer for the number 18. 09:40.790 --> 09:41.700 How long. 09:42.070 --> 09:44.310 Well you got to work five years. 09:44.560 --> 09:44.930 Right. 09:44.960 --> 09:47.330 You've got to work five years. 09:47.330 --> 09:48.310 That's our answer. 09:48.320 --> 09:50.040 Five years 09:52.950 --> 09:55.290 five long years. 09:57.470 --> 09:58.320 Five years. 09:58.310 --> 10:00.270 We're a good mom case. 10:00.280 --> 10:02.310 Too bad. 10:02.450 --> 10:05.390 All right. 10:05.390 --> 10:11.400 Number Seventy two alternative time periods to time period. 10:11.450 --> 10:15.190 It's weeks years months days. 10:17.540 --> 10:18.470 Two time periods. 10:18.480 --> 10:21.170 There it is right there. 10:21.840 --> 10:25.890 Nine weeks in for pay 18 weeks and half pay. 10:25.900 --> 10:26.310 All right. 10:26.310 --> 10:29.750 We're talking about two time periods. 10:29.750 --> 10:33.180 Does the any other sentences that have two time periods 10:40.320 --> 10:46.410 right to time periods something you can do in nine weeks in 18 weeks 10:49.160 --> 10:50.780 nine weeks 18 weeks. 10:50.780 --> 10:51.180 Right. 10:51.190 --> 10:52.330 Let's be no. 10:52.670 --> 10:54.940 That's our sentence right there. 10:55.040 --> 10:57.870 Nine weeks 18 weeks. 10:57.920 --> 10:58.280 All right. 10:58.370 --> 11:06.040 And I'll do like I did in the other videos and I should write the numbers next to them. 11:06.050 --> 11:09.310 I'm sure you all would like that. 11:09.320 --> 11:19.100 That's we're number 19 is that's word number 18 is this word. 11:19.100 --> 11:27.390 Number 17 is play and says What kind of leads. 11:27.400 --> 11:29.340 So what type of Lee. 11:29.860 --> 11:35.580 So in that sentence we're talking about two alternative periods what kind of leave Do we see here. 11:35.590 --> 11:40.720 In addition to the normal paternity leave maternity leave provisions women who have completed 12 months 11:40.720 --> 11:44.570 of continuous service can access nine weeks of maternity leave. 11:44.560 --> 11:49.570 That can be taken either as nine weeks for pay or 18 weeks and half pay. 11:49.580 --> 11:54.480 So the only kind of leave we're talking about here is maternity leave. 11:54.880 --> 11:55.260 Right. 11:55.270 --> 12:02.790 That's the only type of leave right kind of leave name of a Leave type of leave as maternity. 12:03.180 --> 12:14.850 All right type of leave is maternity. 12:14.850 --> 12:18.180 All right so number 17 would be maternity 12:24.750 --> 12:25.710 and 12:28.940 --> 12:30.910 then our next one is dealing with 12:35.410 --> 12:36.640 looking after a relative. 12:36.640 --> 12:36.910 Right. 12:36.910 --> 12:44.110 How much time off each year is an employee able to take to look after a relative look after me and look 12:44.110 --> 12:46.100 after me as if somebody is sick. 12:53.200 --> 12:53.870 All right. 12:53.890 --> 12:57.130 So here's talking about somebody being sick right here. 13:01.420 --> 13:09.880 So Stafford had three weeks when this went for three weeks and I'm sick or carers leave to care for 13:09.880 --> 13:16.440 somebody again the same language everybody does sending them late which for a relative who sick carers 13:16.450 --> 13:16.860 leave. 13:16.870 --> 13:23.500 As I said in a language how long can you do that you can do that for three weeks no more than three 13:23.500 --> 13:31.950 weeks after that you have to go back to work which sucks but it's the way it is. 13:32.020 --> 13:32.800 Three weeks 13:35.500 --> 13:36.300 three weeks 13:40.790 --> 13:51.680 OK and which employees may choose not to work regular hours not working regular hours which employees 13:51.680 --> 13:53.400 can choose. 13:53.390 --> 13:57.830 All right so here we're talking about employees. 13:58.830 --> 13:59.170 Right. 13:59.180 --> 14:01.520 Employees are indoors. 14:01.520 --> 14:06.440 They have an outdoor staff there's employees right there. 14:06.440 --> 14:13.380 Now we sent this to us talking about which employees may choose not to work regular hours 14:19.010 --> 14:24.520 endorse they have are able to access the benefit of flexi time where I actually got to know those was 14:24.520 --> 14:26.430 tough everybody. 14:26.740 --> 14:27.600 This is tough. 14:27.910 --> 14:34.880 But you got to know the flexi time means not regular hours flexi time means not regular hours. 14:35.690 --> 14:41.320 That's our I said in some language right here flexi time not regular hours. 14:41.320 --> 14:49.870 So this is our sentence right there for that one. 14:50.470 --> 14:57.180 And here's our number 16 and there's our number 17. 14:57.220 --> 14:59.470 I'm sorry 15. 14:59.660 --> 15:01.420 Answer or answer yours indoors. 15:01.450 --> 15:03.880 That's right. 15:03.880 --> 15:05.180 We see that right. 15:07.450 --> 15:11.060 Indoor staff is our answer. 15:17.700 --> 15:18.540 Indoor staff 15:21.320 --> 15:23.670 and number 20. 15:24.620 --> 15:28.280 What kind of people will kind of professional people can employees see 15:31.840 --> 15:34.390 here's 19 20 has to be in here. 15:34.420 --> 15:38.510 So all I'm looking for the name of professional people. 15:38.710 --> 15:40.050 All right here it is right here. 15:40.210 --> 15:44.160 The A.P. provides registered psychologists. 15:44.160 --> 15:46.390 What kind of people. 15:46.390 --> 15:52.620 These are the only specific group of people that I see that has the answer right. 15:52.620 --> 15:55.740 So we see that the AP provides. 15:56.010 --> 15:56.470 Right. 15:56.530 --> 15:57.650 It provides it. 15:57.850 --> 16:00.720 So what kind of people do they provide. 16:01.160 --> 16:01.660 OK. 16:01.700 --> 16:07.450 They provide registered psychologist registered psychologists. 16:07.840 --> 16:14.250 And so that's where a number of 20 years right here. 16:14.770 --> 16:16.960 And our answer is right here 16:22.140 --> 16:23.460 registered psychologist 16:26.850 --> 16:28.040 All right. 16:28.750 --> 16:29.930 And actually you would. 16:29.960 --> 16:34.490 Some people might say well if you put psychologists is that OK. 16:34.520 --> 16:35.400 Yeah. 16:39.820 --> 16:51.260 Well because this is like a write you words I'm going to write the full two words. 16:52.860 --> 16:54.080 OK everybody. 16:54.720 --> 16:55.290 So 16:59.220 --> 17:07.690 that will do it in terms of wrapping up our review of the short answer question. 17:08.100 --> 17:08.970 All right. 17:08.970 --> 17:12.980 I hope that you have enjoyed this video. 17:13.380 --> 17:20.020 I hope that you now have a clear understanding of how to quickly run through that short answer question. 17:20.280 --> 17:29.190 As always it's a pleasure teaching you and I hope that you keep working hard and I hope that you continue 17:29.190 --> 17:33.540 to choose us as your provider
