OK so let's move forward let's move forward into looking at our diagram question the diagram question.
As you just heard in the strategy video is very similar to a field the blank question.
They give you a picture to look at and you have to be able to fill in the blanks.
Well looking at that picture.
But basically it's a feel the blank question.
As I said yesterday the whole aisles reading are basically different versions of multiple choice and
fill the blank questions.
They look different and they're designed different but essentially they're the same thing.
They're just asking it in different ways.
All right.
So let's take a look at this.
This test here.
It's called High speed high rise.
Go ahead and work on the the diagram question.
So here we have a diagram that's important look at the directions whereas say is choose one word only
from the text for each answer.
All right.
And basically it says label the diagram below.
So this is a diagram where they are building something.
So what might be helpful in terms of trying to find the right paragraph that the information is coming
from is to look for a paragraph that discusses how something is built or something being built that
might be very helpful.
Also this is as we should note also that sometimes all the answers don't have to come in the same paragraph
you know 90 might come from paragraph to 20 and 21 might come from Paragraph 3 and 22 might come from
Paragraph 4.
Or is it possible the all might come in the same paragraph but you have to be aware of that you have
to be aware that it is possible that they may not all come in the exact same paragraph.
OK so let's be aware of that.
You know like I've told you we should treat this like a field in question and so we see here for 19
we're looking for the words pipes and ducts number 22.
We're looking for a section containing less than conventional buildings something less 21 should be
easy to find because of the war diagonal bracing and 20 is something is chosen by a customer.
Why is it also important to keep in mind that they may use in them language OK.
They may use it in a language from the languages in the question to the correct sentences in the passage.
Remember your answer choices are coming from a particular sentence in the passage and you have to find
that sentence that's what it's all about finding and understanding finding and understanding finding
and understanding.
All right.
So let's look for our first one dealing with pipes and ducts
and that's going to be easy to find because it has to be together there.
And also there are no synonyms for pipes and ducts.
So we should be able to find those words exactly.
I'm scanning down now.
I found it already.
And also this paragraph B is a good paragraph because it says so far Brawn has built 16 structures so
that tells me that this whole paragraph is discussing how something is built.
And remember I told you that if we had we had a diagram of the dog we had a diagram that was describing
something being built and so it was helpful to find a paragraph to discuss something being built.
It was very very helpful.
So we would assess about pipes and ducts pipes and ducts for Electress I'm right here everybody.
Paragraph B and I mean the one to three fourths sentence starts with the word pipes.
You can see the little hand on the screen pipes and ducts for electricity water and waste are threaded
through each floor module.
While it's still in the factory right pipes and ducks for electricity water and waste are threaded through
each floor module while still and while it's still in the factory.
All right pipes and ducts install while in factory there were 19 this factory right here installed while
they're in the factory you can see this in the sentence
write it says pipes and dugs for electricity water away you start to read it through each floor while
still in the factory.
Describe what it says threaded through each floor.
That's a synonym for saying installed.
All I want is this threaded through each floor.
They're sent.
That's a synonym for saying install remember I told you were Fill the blank questions if you find the
language that comes before the blank line.
The important language occurs before the blank line.
You can always know what the answer is.
When this is threaded thread through each floor thread through each floor they're saying installed all
right there saying installed.
And so that tells us that our answer is going to be installed while in the factory but we can only write
one word for our answers.
We have to write factory.
If you write in if you write the factory is wrong OK but it isn't done.
Is is is a word that is a word.
And so we have to be very strict and be very technical about it.
OK be very strict and technical about it.
All right.
Do describe the word factory.
Next we're looking for something chosen by the customer.
And I'm going to assume that this question goes in order because like I said the vast majority of the
time that's what it does.
Oh here it is right here right afterwards he says the client's choice.
Right.
Clients choice chosen by the customer sending them line which they're not they're not going to put the
exact same synonym language in two different sentences.
OK they're not going to do that to you.
I mean you can never say never.
So let's just say I'm about 95 percent sure they're never going to do that to you as as many years as
I have been teaching the Isles exam.
I can't remember a time when they have done it.
OK.
All right so the client's choice of flooring.
So the correct answer is flooring.
The correct answer is flooring.
F l o r n f l o r i n g.
The client's choice of flooring.
Right flooring chosen by customer.
Again you can only write one word twenty one diagonal bracing at the top and bottom of what diagonal
bracing at the top and bottom of key words or top and bottom of the like I said we're going to assume
we're going in order.
There's diagonal bracing right there.
Right we see it right there you see is going to going in order.
Here's number 20.
I mean here's number 19 with pipes and ducks.
Here is number 20 which my client's choice flooring in down here is number 21 with diagonal bracing.
So you can see it's as I told you that this question the diagram question for the most part is going
to go in order.
Ok so I read what it says.
It starts with the word starts with the unique column right.
The unique column design has diagonal bracing at each end and tab's bolted to the floors above and below.
The unique column design has diagonal bracing at each end and so is column right.
The column has diagonal bracing at each end at each end is synonym for top and bottom.
OK.
At each end right here at each end is synonym for top and bottom so was at each end a column.
So they asked for his column.
See how that works.
So a lot of times which you also would have to be aware of is they may switch the word the word order.
Maybe you switched up between the question and the passage.
OK.
So what I mean by that is this here this is diagonal bracing at the top and bottom of a column.
Right.
So we have top and bottom top and bottom of the column in the in the passage we have at top and bottom
of the column in the passage.
It says there's a column at each end so you see it is reversed reversed and you have to be aware of
that here.
The correct answer is of course top and bottom of of column top and bottom of column.
However in the passage the way is written in the passage is there is a column at each end right.
There's a column at the top and the bottom so the word the word order is reverse the word order is reversed
and so that's important to make to make sure you're aware of that that it does not have to come in the
exact same word order that is written and for number 22 them look something about some LN has to find
language that means less.
Right.
That's going to be that's that's that's that's probably what I'm going to focus on more than anything
else to worry less for number 22 the word less and the work of victual building because the word less
it should be easy to find is probably going again is probably going to be using synonyms in the passage
and that's that's the trick to being able to find the right sentence as the answer comes from his novel
reading so much and taking on so much you have to focus on finding the right sentence that's what you
have to focus on finding the right sentence.
Got to focus on that have to do that.
Right.
So keep going down we're here.
I'm looking for a word.
I'm scanning through this collection of buildings and less
like as I'm scanning I'm not reading I'm scanning
we're not really reading.
We're just taking a war by word going through the words without reading.
I know this sounds strange but that's all you have to scan.
You're going through the words without reading a fairly conventional building.
And if out of original building it here's buildings
corridors buildings something talking about though.
OK I'm good we're getting close.
All right you said six months of starting his research Zaga give it up.
Traditional methods traditional similar to the work conventional.
Well we still have to find the language that means the same as Les.
Here we go.
Is in his last sentence right here to reduce.
Here's our last sentence.
To reduce means to make less.
And here we have the we're building right here to reduce the overall weight of the building.
It had to use less concrete and the other were less.
There are actually exact or less right here less concrete.
So the answer will be concrete CEO in seniority there will be concrete to reduce the overall weight
of the building and use less concrete.
Now I want to I want you to know I want you to make a note of something I want to make a note of something.
Number is 19 20 and 21 were all in paragraph B.
Then it skipped paragraph C and then the last answer is in paragraph D.
So you see that is right it doesn't have to go paragraph by paragraph three of the entries in paragraph
B that is skipped paragraph C and R next.
And that was in paragraph D said to be aware of it.
That's a possibility to be able to skip over a paragraph.
Ok got to be aware of that.
OK.
So that'll do it for this first example of the diagram question.
And now we will go ahead and do another one.
OK.
All right.
So take care and I will talk to you soon.
