00:00.180 --> 00:02.480
There might be something you're not doing right on your end.

00:02.760 --> 00:08.220
But if I have I have the questions on the screen right now and when I'm playing the audio you should

00:08.220 --> 00:12.220
be able to and you should be able to still hear everything.

00:15.410 --> 00:16.020
All right.

00:23.330 --> 00:24.640
OK.

00:25.620 --> 00:26.010
All right.

00:26.010 --> 00:38.550
Some way into the next part which is which is a math.

00:38.800 --> 00:47.560
Now when it comes to maps when it comes to maps a lot of students have trouble with the math.

00:47.970 --> 00:48.780
OK.

00:48.970 --> 00:57.370
And when it comes to maps you have to really start making sure that you're able to really recognize

00:57.370 --> 00:59.330
map language.

00:59.350 --> 01:05.050
Now when I'm looking at a map out I'll tell you the things that I'm looking at when I'm looking at a

01:05.050 --> 01:09.930
map I'm looking at everything that I'm looking at markers right.

01:09.940 --> 01:12.200
I'm looking at markers when I'm looking at the map.

01:12.460 --> 01:15.060
So I'm looking at I'm looking.

01:15.130 --> 01:16.410
Ok here is the bay.

01:17.810 --> 01:20.050
Right I'm looking at that city road.

01:20.330 --> 01:22.960
I'm looking at what that hill road.

01:23.170 --> 01:23.360
Right.

01:23.360 --> 01:24.050
Who knows.

01:24.050 --> 01:28.720
Who knows what this is called right here right.

01:28.740 --> 01:31.480
This little road up here Bob Hill Road What does that call.

01:31.500 --> 01:32.620
Does anybody know.

01:34.410 --> 01:38.420
What kind of road is that called.

01:38.450 --> 01:42.980
Because if you know what kind of road that's called that really helps you be able to listen.

01:43.250 --> 01:44.330
Nobody knows.

01:47.160 --> 01:49.000
Abdul-Aziz curve one.

01:49.500 --> 01:50.280
Yeah yeah yeah.

01:50.350 --> 01:51.280
But you have to know.

01:51.340 --> 01:53.950
No no no bumpy ice.

01:53.980 --> 01:55.870
This is a problem guys.

01:55.870 --> 02:00.060
You have to know that this in English is called a winding road.

02:02.000 --> 02:02.930
That's what it's called.

02:02.960 --> 02:05.150
It's called a winding road.

02:05.150 --> 02:05.570
Right.

02:05.570 --> 02:11.960
I know that there's the public garden or I know that there's a station square and I know there's probably

02:11.990 --> 02:19.070
road also to make sure that I know about west north east and south west north and east or east north

02:19.070 --> 02:20.750
east south west.

02:20.750 --> 02:21.020
Right.

02:21.040 --> 02:22.800
I've got to know my directions.

02:23.060 --> 02:30.190
But if you're not able to recognize you know like for example choice the how would you describe this

02:30.190 --> 02:31.510
small road of choice.

02:31.510 --> 02:35.250
The right is what is how is this describe.

02:35.250 --> 02:36.520
Does anybody know.

02:39.660 --> 02:41.440
How would you describe that road.

02:45.350 --> 02:46.040
Narrow.

02:46.130 --> 02:46.770
OK.

02:47.090 --> 02:50.480
So you might say what a narrow

02:57.650 --> 03:02.260
ride a narrow diagonal road.

03:03.460 --> 03:04.210
Right.

03:04.390 --> 03:07.610
Is that a diagonal.

03:07.700 --> 03:10.030
All right is narrow or small.

03:10.430 --> 03:12.190
Not just this little part right here.

03:12.200 --> 03:14.760
But gee how would you describe that.

03:14.870 --> 03:16.460
This little this little road right here.

03:16.460 --> 03:18.150
How would you describe that road.

03:20.880 --> 03:25.170
The one is going from G closed

03:29.740 --> 03:30.190
right.

03:30.190 --> 03:31.570
So Darien.

03:31.600 --> 03:32.560
Exactly.

03:32.750 --> 03:40.680
So when you're looking when you you should in order make maps easy you have to improve your vocabulary

03:40.680 --> 03:44.080
is an English test right.

03:44.080 --> 03:51.400
It's an English test so you have to be able to recognize right how would you if you're looking at sea.

03:51.550 --> 03:53.260
How would you describe see where.

03:53.280 --> 03:53.980
Where is sea.

03:53.980 --> 03:55.990
How would anybody describe where sea is

04:02.220 --> 04:03.400
where a sea located

04:06.540 --> 04:08.600
has anybody no.

04:08.700 --> 04:13.090
No not straight.

04:13.280 --> 04:15.730
Maybe be maybe intersection.

04:15.730 --> 04:16.570
All right.

04:16.800 --> 04:23.550
But most of the time when you see something like sea right it's going to be described as a cross from

04:23.550 --> 04:26.840
something right.

04:27.120 --> 04:31.380
It wouldn't it wouldn't be at the end or it wouldn't be or it wouldn't be at the.

04:31.560 --> 04:33.540
It wouldn't be intersection.

04:33.540 --> 04:38.540
Right but normally if what if what if it were Mark is a cross from a building.

04:38.760 --> 04:44.460
They're going to say across from right across from or the opposite to the bank.

04:44.470 --> 04:51.220
Yes they might say up to the bank they may say what South on the south side from the bank and they may

04:51.220 --> 04:52.580
use directional lane which

04:55.530 --> 05:02.580
right now was the English word and that is the reason I'm going over this with you guys in terms of

05:02.670 --> 05:08.640
in terms of lane which is because some people don't get this part of making maps easy.

05:08.700 --> 05:14.540
What do you call this par where you have Hill Road and city road where where hill road and see road

05:14.580 --> 05:17.700
come together what do you call that in English.

05:25.330 --> 05:28.400
Also I say facing what do you call that.

05:28.450 --> 05:29.640
No no.

05:29.660 --> 05:30.740
It's not intersection.

05:30.820 --> 05:31.950
Yes Ravi.

05:32.320 --> 05:33.730
All right it's is called a what.

05:35.030 --> 05:36.010
It's called a junction

05:38.760 --> 05:39.190
right.

05:39.240 --> 05:42.620
That's the that's the English word they're going to refer to.

05:42.840 --> 05:48.000
So if you don't have the language guys that's what makes a mark that's what makes the map difficult.

05:49.400 --> 05:50.380
All right this mall.

05:50.400 --> 05:57.360
This small park is running right here along along H right this small part just running along.

05:57.360 --> 05:58.930
H What do you call that part.

06:00.130 --> 06:04.670
This small little park going up from H into the garden.

06:04.720 --> 06:05.650
I know what that's called

06:16.170 --> 06:17.490
narrow straight road.

06:17.670 --> 06:19.940
Well it's not a road because there are no cars on it.

06:21.300 --> 06:22.000
No.

06:22.230 --> 06:23.010
No.

06:25.340 --> 06:27.970
It's not a block.

06:28.250 --> 06:29.310
All right.

06:31.560 --> 06:34.590
So it could be referred to.

06:34.980 --> 06:39.290
It could be possibly referred to as a.

06:39.360 --> 06:44.830
Most likely you'll be referred to as a footpath.

06:45.040 --> 06:45.720
Right.

06:46.010 --> 06:48.070
Could be referred to as a passageway

06:52.350 --> 06:53.500
right.

06:54.360 --> 07:02.210
Could be referred to as a what was not really a walk path or building will be referred to as a footpath.

07:02.560 --> 07:07.760
So we all have to remember they're testing our English.

07:07.870 --> 07:11.390
These are the English words they expect you to know.

07:14.110 --> 07:14.410
Right.

07:14.410 --> 07:16.120
These are the English words you expect.

07:16.150 --> 07:20.720
They expect you to know other English words they expect you to know.

07:21.990 --> 07:22.890
Facing.

07:23.270 --> 07:27.100
What does it mean when it says facey right what does that mean.

07:29.300 --> 07:32.710
Up through what is up through me.

07:40.220 --> 07:41.180
Leads off

07:46.020 --> 07:50.900
right there is a lot of language that relates to direction.

07:51.990 --> 07:57.330
That you have to know if you don't know what facing means or what does it mean to go through.

07:57.470 --> 08:02.440
What does it mean to lead off from all this kind of language.

08:02.450 --> 08:04.070
This is all language

08:07.150 --> 08:09.090
same side.

08:10.090 --> 08:10.450
Right.

08:10.450 --> 08:16.230
So all these words I've mentioned are and they're more war when you look at other maps you come across

08:16.230 --> 08:21.010
different words but that's why knowing how to practice is so important.

08:21.720 --> 08:24.540
That's why I don't know how to practice is so important.

08:24.540 --> 08:28.650
A lot of you guys make the mistake of just taking one test or taking another test and taking another

08:28.650 --> 08:32.150
test and taking another test and you keep getting the same result.

08:33.120 --> 08:37.000
You're not doing the things to be able to improve your score.

08:37.920 --> 08:38.280
Right.

08:38.280 --> 08:43.260
So when you're looking at a map or you're practicing with a map there are so many things you should

08:43.260 --> 08:43.410
be.

08:43.410 --> 08:46.860
You could be you could be we haven't even started answering the question yet.

08:48.110 --> 08:48.540
Right.

08:48.590 --> 08:55.610
And I'm trying to really break down for you how you have to go about analyzing and looking at a question

08:56.120 --> 08:57.740
so that you can improve.

08:57.750 --> 08:58.260
Right.

08:58.270 --> 09:01.220
It's not always about taking a practice test.

09:01.280 --> 09:07.630
Sometimes you're working on other skills sometimes you might listen to an audio and say Let me try and

09:07.630 --> 09:09.000
listen for all this.

09:09.110 --> 09:14.970
If I hear any type of new direction or language or math language I've never heard before.

09:14.990 --> 09:20.930
Let me just listen for that kind of stuff I'm not even answering the questions because the better my

09:20.930 --> 09:27.000
vocabulary gets with these kind of questions the easiest going to be OK.

09:27.430 --> 09:32.980
All right so now let's go ahead and answer right.

09:32.980 --> 09:36.040
Keep in mind keep in my.

09:39.880 --> 09:43.900
Hold on to my ask me a question these kind of questions.

09:43.900 --> 09:46.610
Does direction more given.

09:46.670 --> 09:49.160
No they don't give you the direction marks.

09:49.730 --> 09:52.910
No Kareen you have to they're going to they're going to save them.

09:53.150 --> 09:59.420
You have to be with it when you hear when you hear the direction markers or the placement markers.

09:59.420 --> 10:03.570
You have to recognize where they're talking about.

10:03.730 --> 10:04.150
Right.

10:04.150 --> 10:13.750
So again I guess the first step one is putting your memory where hill road is put in your memory where

10:13.750 --> 10:19.720
city road is putting your memory where public garden is where scrawly really is where station is where

10:19.720 --> 10:22.230
the bank is where the winding road is.

10:22.510 --> 10:25.840
Put those markers in your might.

10:25.850 --> 10:26.760
All right.

10:26.990 --> 10:30.580
But no they're not going to tell you that they're not giving you the markers.

10:30.950 --> 10:31.740
OK.

10:32.030 --> 10:34.020
But you've got to put those in your mind.

10:34.430 --> 10:35.270
OK.

10:35.540 --> 10:37.150
I'm going to go ahead and play it.

10:37.160 --> 10:40.030
Now remember these these go in order.

10:40.280 --> 10:41.530
They go in order.

10:41.840 --> 10:51.090
So first you're going to hear 15 then 16 and 17 and 18 and 19 and then you get to hear 20.

10:51.230 --> 10:51.530
Right.

10:51.530 --> 10:55.380
All the questions were I'll listen and go in order.

10:55.390 --> 10:55.750
All right.

10:55.750 --> 10:56.980
They go in order.

10:57.040 --> 11:03.070
So the first thing they're going to tell you is where Reynolds house is OK then they're going to tell

11:03.070 --> 11:04.060
you where the thumb is.

11:04.110 --> 11:06.780
Then the museum it never goes out of order.

11:11.490 --> 11:15.480
All right Abraham you shouldn't be trying.

11:15.610 --> 11:19.140
I mean when you're memorizing what do you tell him or memorize.

11:19.170 --> 11:23.090
I think within 30 seconds you are memorizing it.

11:23.560 --> 11:24.070
OK.

11:24.110 --> 11:26.830
You're not there's no what are you trying to memorize.

11:27.040 --> 11:31.090
Where City Road Public Gardens he'll roll you should you get this putting the you're looking at where

11:31.090 --> 11:32.480
things are on the map.

11:32.560 --> 11:34.110
There's nothing to memorize.

11:34.960 --> 11:36.970
The map is right in front of your face.

11:38.690 --> 11:39.020
Right.

11:39.020 --> 11:41.120
You're not required to memorize anything.

11:42.210 --> 11:42.610
OK.

11:42.620 --> 11:48.320
But you should know all this vocabulary before you even walk in the test junction footpath passage way

11:48.320 --> 11:55.020
facing up through leads of same inside winding road across from short closed right.

11:55.040 --> 11:56.950
All that language you should already know.

11:57.260 --> 11:57.550
All right.

11:57.560 --> 12:01.090
But there's no requirement to memorize OK.

12:01.490 --> 12:09.070
I'm about to play the audio and I'll answer the best way that you can please.

12:09.310 --> 12:12.600
And then I'll go through everything and point it out for you.

12:18.740 --> 12:24.510
After 6pm many of the cowpox have a flat rate which varies but it is usually very reasonable.

12:27.420 --> 12:34.230
Before you hear the rest of the podcast you have some time to look at questions 15 to 20

13:04.640 --> 13:12.070
now and answer questions 15 to 20.

13:12.230 --> 13:16.940
The sheet market is one of the main centers for art and history and the whole of the country.

13:17.040 --> 13:20.530
If you look at a map you'll see some of the main attractions there.

13:20.670 --> 13:24.340
Most visitors start from Crawley road at the bottom of the map.

13:24.410 --> 13:29.430
Reynolds house is one of the oldest houses in the city and is open to the public.

13:29.430 --> 13:35.030
It's on the north side of Crawley road next to the footpath that leads to the public gardens.

13:36.060 --> 13:39.630
The areas particularly interesting prison usual sculptures.

13:39.690 --> 13:44.360
The thumb is just what its name suggests but it's about 10 metres high.

13:44.580 --> 13:49.040
You'll see it on Hill Road across the road from the.

13:49.090 --> 13:53.280
The museums got a particularly fine collection of New Zealand landscapes.

13:53.350 --> 13:56.550
It's on the east side of the sheep market on city road.

13:57.460 --> 14:00.310
It's only other side of the road from public gardens.

14:00.310 --> 14:07.060
Medially facing the junction with the road the contemporary art gallery is on a little road that leads

14:07.060 --> 14:14.020
off Station Square not far from the public the road ends of the gallery that doesn't go anywhere else

14:14.600 --> 14:23.360
that's on them every day except mumblings want a gallery specializes in 19th century it's on City Road

14:23.650 --> 14:28.780
near the junction with Crawley road on the same side of the road as the public.

14:29.060 --> 14:32.720
It's weeknights from 9:00 to 5:00 and entry is free.

14:34.020 --> 14:40.620
Finally if you're interested in purchasing high quality artwork the place to go is nucleus.

14:40.770 --> 14:46.500
You need to go from Crawley road up through Station Square and east along the road until you get to

14:46.500 --> 14:47.840
a small winding road.

14:47.850 --> 14:51.800
Turning off got there and it's on your right.

14:52.140 --> 14:53.560
You get to city road.

14:53.580 --> 14:54.350
You've gone to

14:57.860 --> 15:02.060
just the intersection to.

15:02.300 --> 15:03.670
All right.

15:03.890 --> 15:05.980
What is the answer for.

15:06.020 --> 15:06.980
Number 15

15:14.890 --> 15:18.830
15 is age and what do they say.

15:20.080 --> 15:23.120
15 is HCC north

15:25.810 --> 15:28.660
of Crawley

15:30.940 --> 15:31.980
footpath.

15:49.950 --> 15:50.980
Look at what they say.

15:51.120 --> 15:53.220
You should be able to follow it right.

15:53.220 --> 15:55.450
