OK.
So let's look at an example of the summary question.
There's a good example of the summary question where all the words appear in the box.
OK.
All the words appear in a box.
And then we we've seen an example of when the words don't appear in the box.
Now look at the example of when the words do appear in the box.
OK.
So let's have a look at it.
This is from I believe this is from the Cambridge Book Number Seven seven or eight I think is number
seven.
But I like like some of the reading passages in those books and seven eight Never.
Number nine Okay two but like seven eight and I like the new one and I like the 2014 date practice test
those are all pretty good.
I like to use those because they give you a good variety of the different questions that you might have
to do.
So take a look at it.
All right.
So first we have a we have a multiple choice question which would do would we would do because it goes
in order then we have a complete is a question which we have the blank question which we need to do.
Fill in the blank question because it goes in order and then we have our Some request.
All right so there we were doing this for the real exam.
We would do our multiple choice question we would do our fill the blank question then we would do some
real question and it should be a little bit easier.
There should be a little bit easier.
Now one thing that might make it easier for you one thing that I recommend that might be helpful to
you and I didn't say this what I did gave you an explanation of maybe I should when I gave you the strategy
lesson but one thing that might be helpful is even though you're even though you're not going to do
even though you're not going to do the summary question first go ahead and look at the keywords in the
end the sum requested electrical charges ionization lasers laser beams controlling electrical charges.
I would I would circle those keywords and then go and do my multiple choice or fill in the blank question
and that way when I'm doing my multiple choice of mouthfeel the blank question I can keep an ear out
that year.
I can keep my eyes open for those keywords to appear and then maybe I'll know a little bit faster.
I'll do a little bit faster where the information for the summary question is coming from.
And also maybe I'll know also if this is a summary question where the information comes from multiple
sentences or is a summary question where the information comes from one specific sentence.
OK so we have to ask this.
Let's just keep that in mind when we're talking about it.
All right.
So for this one.
Number one no.
Go make it easy to find like for number seven Like I said we want to look and see which which we have
we have to do number seven eight nine and 10 here.
I think the information for number seven might be easy to find because it has the word ionisation there's
not going to be a synonym for the word ionization.
All right.
And laser laser line is not going to be a problem.
Number eight we're talking about a laser controlling electrical charges.
Right.
And for us for number eight for number eight and number nine which it says which is less dangerous than
using blink.
All right.
So let's weigh in and look at and first see if we can find the word ionisation that once you have to
do is you have to read the sentence where you see ionisation and then you can look and see which word
in the box you would pick and that's the way it works.
That's the way it works in terms of reading comprehension.
That's when you have words in a box go read the sentence and then pick the word in the box that fits
from what you just read.
So go try to find ionisation first
then what I'm doing.
I'm not at all mean I have just dat tape here.
But what we're doing is we're scanning and looking for the word.
And there it is right there.
See it ionization.
OK.
So there's ionization right there.
OK there is ionisation.
And so that's going to give me that gives me a good idea of where we should be starting from.
All right.
So let's take a look at it and see if we can start filling in some of these blanks.
Now another thing to be aware of.
Also another thing to be aware of also when it comes to the blank question is sometimes what they'll
do is they'll take information from two sentences and then in a summary combined into one sentence.
OK.
So be aware of that.
Sometimes you have to read two sentences to get the information because there's something that they
love to do because that's what that's what summarizing is that's what summarizing is when you really
think about it.
Right.
That's what it is summarizing it is you know taking information from multiple sentences writing compound
in complex sentences and using adjective clauses and creating a really good summary that that really
gives you a good idea of what the passage is about.
So was Kievan number seven is the word remove because it says removing electrons from Christ so we're
looking at we're moving electrons from.
Now I'm always going to you know for a summary question.
Just be aware that it could come from the it could be a combination of two sentences.
So here is ionisation.
This is start at the beginning.
Look at our topic sentence right here in this paragraph that starts with words the idea the idea began
some 20 years ago when high power lasers were revealing their ability to extract electrons out of atoms
and create ions.
All right.
So there's your answer right there is atoms.
Write because extract means remove extract electrons out of atoms and create ions.
If a laser could generate a line of high and the zation in the air all the way up to the storm cloud
so yeah that that number that that first one is a combination of these first two sentences.
The answer comes from the first sentence and the other language that makes up the sentence comes from
the second sentence.
So they took information from both of these sentences and combined it together to create one sentence.
But I know my answer is atoms because of the word because of the word extract extract means remove extract
means remove and so we know they asked for number seven Yes we are removing electrons from atoms.
So on our answer sheet we will put B as the answer.
We put the letter B B as in boy.
OK.
And then for our next one for our next one we're looking at the laser is then directed at right.
Directed is like pointing towards just what the word directive means.
The laser is then directed at in order to control the electrical charges.
So what is the alert raised.
What is the laser directed at.
Well here it is right here.
To stop the laser itself.
Being struck it would not be it would not be pointed straight at the clients.
See
to control that trickle chargers.
OK.
Right.
So if a laser could generate a line or it is right here a line that means direction a line of ionization
in the ear all the way up to a storm cloud.
So our correct answer correct answer for for this one would be c..
OK storm cloud.
Because our line is the same as saying directed at her right.
That's what that means.
So they answer for number 8 they asked for number eight will be see storm clouds directed at point A
line towards shoreline towards.
Right.
So we had our first answer Adam's come from the first sentence.
We had our next answer.
Storm clouds come from the second sentence and then from number nine.
It's a method that's less dangerous than using less dangerous than using So we have to find language.
We have to find language that means less dangerous then.
OK that's what we're looking less dangerous than.
Well you know what I look at this paragraph.
I don't see anything in this talking about it being less dangerous than.
I don't see any information in this paragraph that talks about dangerous or less dangerous.
Wow.
Wow wow wow.
So.
Wow.
So what that means is that when we look at this question we look at this question.
Wow.
What they've done here is number eight comes from that sentence that second sentence of the paragraph.
But the next part of this sentence a method which is less dangerous than using that comes from a whole
different paragraph.
Wow.
So they took Well they took information from us they took information from one paragraph it took information
from another paragraph and combined that into one sentence.
Wow that's tricky.
That is really really tricky.
That's really really tricky.
While we have to find a paragraph that talks about it being less dangerous than
OK
I decided to look under this paragraph that says bad behavior because if he's talking about
well about bad behavior that's usually talking about something negative.
And I'm looking for an object.
There's less dangerous than a laser.
All right.
Less dangerous so you know that that heading of bad behavior.
Let me know that this is Paris is talking about.
What is what is going to be less dangerous and less dangerous as whatever they're talking about in these
paragraphs under bad behavior is a dangerous thing.
And it looks like in these two paragraphs.
But while the rockets are fine for research the rockets anyway.
Who would want to fire streams of rockets in a populated area.
So it seems like the bad thing they're talking about is rockets.
So the lasers are just less dangerous than rockets.
So the answer for the answer for number nine is rockets.
Wow that is really cruel.
What else people are doing there.
But as I told you I told you that it's possible that information could come from different paragraphs
and they took they took a scent they took information from two different parts and combined it together.
So that means the answer for number nine would be G will be.
I never see it as a protection for the lasers.
The beams are aimed firstly at one of the beams first aimed at
what are the beams first aimed at
our eye answers mirror
directed at aimed at directed at aimed at to stop delay starting with the centers before as you can
see that this is the answer to stop the laser itself being stropped.
It would not be pointing straight at the clouds.
Instead it will be directed at a mirror then from there into the sky so far as is going to be directed
at a mirror and from there into the sky high rise if the answer directed at directed at is the synonym
language here directed at.
For a Firstly aimed aim first the head directed at AIM Firstly directed at a mirror.
So I asked for number 10 it the mirror which is D.
Well so correct.
Correct answers are B C G D B C G D B C G D.
OK all right so thanks a lot and I hope these examples of the summary question were helpful for you.
All right I'll talk to you soon.
