OK.
So let's take a look at this example for the paragraph location question.
All right.
So we're still dealing with our past we had before.
So like I said this is the paragraph location question right here it always has language like this which
paragraph contains the following information or sometimes it might say which section contains the following
information.
So I'll say which paragraph contains the following information or I'll say which section contains the
following information.
All right.
Like I said we're not going to do the question first because it doesn't go on in order and so many students
do it first especially if it appears first like here.
Here it appears for us as one two three four.
And a lot of times in the past it would a lot it would appear first and students would waste so much
time trying to do this question first.
But we're not going to have first what we what we would do is we would do the matching question first
and then we would do the diagram question and then we go back and do the paragraph location question
numbers 1 through 4.
Now as I explained in the strategy what you want to do is we want to first look at the keywords in the
paragraph location question like number one.
When I say key words right.
Let me be clear about them talk about nouns and verbs subject got verbs subject object verb or I are
subject verb object.
That's what we're looking for right.
This sub really the subject of the object the nouns and verbs solve for number one.
We're talking about we have early timekeeping invention and also something about cold temperatures.
Those are the those are the key words that I would circle or I would underline.
OK.
Number two we're talking about geography and then other noun calendar and then next farming communities.
Those are the words that I would underline our circle geography calendar farming community Number three
pendulum clock the number of four simultaneous efforts to be simultaneous means doing things at the
same time simultaneous efforts of societies and using uniform hours.
All right so those are the key words that I want to circle.
And those are the key words and I'm going to try to keep in mind while I'm doing the other questions.
OK so now we've circled the keywords right you circle the keywords on your paper if you've if you have
the book like I recommend you circle the key words on your paper now.
We're going to skip it.
We're going to leave it.
We're going to leave the paragraph location question and we would go do the matching question right.
Remember how to do a matching question we have to look at the word find the Babylonians read the sentence
where was the Babylonians and see if that matches any of these questions right here.
Right.
So we will go and look at Babylonians which is right here.
This is the Babylonians began to measure time introducing calendars to coordinate communal activities
to plan the shipment of goods and in particular to regularly planting and harvesting.
So they introduced calendars to coordinate communal activities planned the shipment of goods and regularly
planting and harvesting.
So Babylonians are sea calendar it was months in length about that two equal halves no cabinet shape
no calendar to organize public events and work schedules.
Yes.
So for number eight we'll put a for Babylonians because organized public work public events and work
schedules they read they they coordinated communal activities that organize public events and they regulated
planting and harvesting and planning the shipment of goods that's work schedules right.
So for number eight we will put a number of years go look for Egyptians
here are Egyptians right here.
The Egyptians have formulated a municipal calendar having 12 months of 30 days or 12 months of 30 days.
OK.
Because see that's a match for right here civil calendar in which the months were equal in length.
So number five would be a.
Right now I'm still keeping it my my key words for here for the paragraph location still have those
in my mind.
Geography farming calendar cold temperatures early timekeeping invention invention and uniform hours
simultaneous efforts I still have those in my mind.
OK next I'm looking at the Greeks
here the Greeks right here.
Temporal Auris which were first adopted by the Greeks.
That doesn't match anything divided into two equal have snow develop a new cabinet shape for the time
keeper.
No.
So Greeks doesn't match anything.
English here in England right here England is a substitute for English.
The early paragraph f paragraph f whereas in England the earliest recorded weight given mechanical clock
was built in 12:33 and bet for sure for sure in England.
The revolutionary aspect of this new time keeper.
OK so we see that when we see that England is a match for develop a new cat a new cabinet shape for
a type of carp timekeeper.
So number seven will be England.
Had also when I was in this paragraph.
What I was in this paragraph about England cry.
What I was in this paragraph about England
is England right there.
Yes I see something about a pendulum clock price you something about pendulum clock right here.
Something about a pendulum clock
right when I was looking at that paragraph about England that jumped out to me.
So that makes that means that number three is half high.
The description of the origins of the pendulum clock that's paragraph f all right now I'm still number
jumps to do my matching question.
I'm down to the Germans and the French.
All right.
And I saw Germany as I was scanning through it
as paragraph a paragraph.
There's Germany there's French right so the sentence is Italian.
Ours begin at sunset Babylonian hours at sunrise astronomical hours of mid day and great clock hours
used for some large public clocks in Germany at midnight.
Eventually these were superseded by small clock or French hours which split the day into two 12 hour
periods commencing at midnight.
Also was helpful was helpful this is really important who wants to listen was also helpful for paragraph
location.
Question is a lot of times you can look at the topic sentences.
The first sentence of a paragraph and that can give you a good idea if it matches if it matches also.
OK like here when we look at the way we look at the topics and just a paragraph the first sentence.
This is the advent of the mechanical clock met that although it could be adjusted to maintain temporal
hours it was naturally suited to keeping equal ones.
Equal means uniform equal hours.
So a lot of times when you're doing a paragraph location question if you're a little confused it could
be helpful to just look at your topic sentences of paragraphs because your topic sentences in general
tell you what a paragraph is about.
They tell you what a paragraph is about and so if you look at your topic sentences many times you can
get an idea if that paragraph has the information that you're looking for for a paragraph location question.
OK all right so that's for that all right.
And then after words we would go down and do the.
The diagram question.
And we know this information is is in this paragraph.
This has 16:17.
But when we look at this paragraph with 16:17 right we will look at this paragraph.
There's nothing in here about geography or farming.
So we know that we know the information when looking at paragraph G.
Now there's nothing about farming or nothing about that stuff.
They are in paragraph G and then
so we have we have we have number four or four is a.
Number four is paragraph E with the French and the paragraph about equal hours and number three is F
with a description of the pendulum clock.
But that paragraph with 16:17 talks about nothing about timekeeping and cold temperatures.
Now some of you might ask well how come how come paragraph Halcombe paragraph f paragraph E is not the
right answer for number one because number one talked about early timekeeping invention and also cold
temperature right.
This does talk about you when when you look at paragraph of the paragraph.
If you see you do see the word timekeeper right.
But you don't don't just pick an answer because you see the same word.
There's no mention in this paragraph about about cold temperature so that's why that's why that paragraph
F can not be the right answer for this one.
OK we need a pair of this talking about cold temperature.
Try E F G or out paragraph D.
Here's the word Inv. right here is the word inv..
Again we're looking at the topic sentence in order to track temporal hours during the day inventers
created sundials which indicate time by the length or direction of the sun.
So the inventers create a sundial.
There our early invention.
See if we see anything in this paragraph about cold temperature.
Here we go freezing weather freezing weather of northern Europe.
So this paragraph D we have we have an adventure invention of a sundial right eviction of the sundial
and we have a myriad of cold weather freezing weather.
So that means that means number one is paragraph D.
All right so now go to the first page and see if I can find something about geography a calendar and
farming.
I'm looking for a paragraph to Minchin's geography calendar in Pharmac
them starting look here up here in paragraph a
loca.
Here we are looking at paragraph b right here we see the word calendar.
I mean I'm in the third sentence it says.
Hence the calendars paragraph B hints that calendars that were developed at the lower latitudes lower
latitudes are talking about geography and then the next sentence in more northern clime northern climate
clime is short for climate.
Again we're talking about geography.
And here we're talking about agriculture which is farming.
OK so paragraph B is the answer for number two.
All right.
That stands for number two.
So are correct answers again.
Number one was the number two is paragraph B.
Number three was paragraph F and number four is paragraph e.
OK.
All right.
So that's just the proper method for doing that's the proper method for doing a paragraph location question.
All right.
So what you what what what we're doing there is where we're again where we're circling our keywords
in the question they're leaving the paragraph location in question and doing the other questions in
the set and then coming back to it.
The reason why we go into the other questions in the set is a lot of times they go in order or they're
much easier to do.
And while we're doing any other questions we're able to look at a lot of the passage and as we've looked
at a lot of the passers by doing the other questions then going back to a paragraph location question
makes it much much easier to do and had much easier to do.
OK.
So thanks a lot.
And now let's go ahead and look at another example.
Talk to you soon.
