00:00.770 --> 00:01.580
OK.

00:01.590 --> 00:08.160
So let's go through our next reading comprehension.

00:08.670 --> 00:16.110
Fill in the blank example and this example is coming from the Cambridge Eilis book 10 Test 3 reading

00:16.110 --> 00:18.530
passage 1.

00:18.810 --> 00:23.880
And so like I said I encourage you to have the books so you can follow along with us.

00:24.210 --> 00:28.760
You can purchase the books online and you can find them online.

00:29.040 --> 00:36.060
And I encourage you to do that so you can follow along with us because I think that the Cambridge books

00:36.150 --> 00:38.490
are the best practice books.

00:38.490 --> 00:44.260
Those are the books that I use to teach my classes is the book that I'm using to teach this class and

00:44.330 --> 00:50.600
courage to use them in your practice because those are the best books.

00:50.670 --> 00:57.900
They don't really have they don't have the strategy and tactics in them.

00:57.900 --> 01:04.680
That's why you're taking this course so that I can teach you strategy and tactics but the practice material

01:04.680 --> 01:05.610
is authentic.

01:05.610 --> 01:08.670
And I think that's what you should use.

01:08.670 --> 01:08.960
All right.

01:08.960 --> 01:15.830
So here we have a reading passage about the context meaning in scope of tourism is there our questions

01:15.840 --> 01:18.150
we have filled them like questions.

01:18.300 --> 01:23.070
So when we look at these fill in the blank questions like I said the first thing we want to always keep

01:23.070 --> 01:25.570
in mind these questions go in order.

01:25.590 --> 01:31.560
You'll find them and after that you'll find that we're 12 and after that you'll find Number 13 we will

01:31.560 --> 01:35.800
look at the questions and decide which ones are going to be the fastest to do first.

01:35.850 --> 01:40.650
Clearly looking here number is 11 and 12 will be the fastest to do first because of the word Greece

01:40.770 --> 01:44.620
the word Greece and the word Jamaica.

01:44.620 --> 01:49.680
Those words can be very easy to find in the reading passage.

01:49.680 --> 01:55.890
And once we find those words in a sentence or for number 11 we're looking for the answer that's connected

01:55.890 --> 01:57.260
to most important.

01:57.480 --> 02:03.440
And then when we find descent to Jamaica we're looking for the words that are connected to the word

02:03.450 --> 02:04.670
major.

02:04.670 --> 02:11.790
And then after number 12 looking for number 13 key words in 13 the word problem for sure have it also

02:11.820 --> 02:13.900
international to terrorism.

02:14.190 --> 02:20.100
And our answer will be connected to measurement of where we find the right centers are and will be connected

02:20.100 --> 02:21.740
to measurement of.

02:21.840 --> 02:22.160
All right.

02:22.170 --> 02:25.270
But first a sign of the 11 and 12 and.

02:25.470 --> 02:32.940
And then we can be able to find our answer choices rather quickly but this will probably start the top

02:33.510 --> 02:36.590
ten list start scanning for Greece.

02:42.460 --> 02:44.560
There are different ways to scan.

02:45.090 --> 02:47.940
I just go back and forth left to right.

02:48.040 --> 02:50.550
Some people go right to laugh.

02:50.800 --> 02:52.370
So people go diagonally.

02:52.480 --> 02:57.820
Sometimes that's what I do and I'm just looking for the word Greece.

03:02.490 --> 03:10.020
Sometimes out diagonal Naugle left diagonal right diagonal.

03:11.190 --> 03:14.160
I haven't seen that yet.

03:14.690 --> 03:18.320
If you see it before me let me know.

03:18.350 --> 03:19.180
There we go.

03:19.280 --> 03:21.980
Here's the word Greece.

03:21.980 --> 03:24.190
All right here's the word Greece right here.

03:24.200 --> 03:30.850
All right so here's a sentence for example tourism is the major source of income in Bermuda.

03:30.860 --> 03:34.640
Greece Italy Spain Switzerland and most Caribbean countries.

03:34.640 --> 03:36.390
That's our sentence.

03:36.530 --> 03:36.910
All right.

03:36.920 --> 03:45.050
So as we look back at the question really quickly tourism is the most important for Greece tourism is

03:45.050 --> 03:46.960
the most important.

03:47.000 --> 03:56.150
So we look at the sentence a major source is only one language here and this sentence is similar to

03:56.150 --> 03:57.400
most important.

03:57.640 --> 04:02.330
So and our answer is going to be a source of income or income.

04:02.450 --> 04:07.250
They would accept also as an answer choice but our answer here will be source of income because the

04:07.250 --> 04:11.470
word major is connected to most important.

04:12.560 --> 04:17.460
So we know after that we're looking for a census with Jamaica where we have a right there here or centers

04:17.540 --> 04:20.300
with the words Jamaica.

04:20.310 --> 04:20.820
All right.

04:20.870 --> 04:27.470
So in addition Hawkin's or Richi quoting from data published by the American Express Company suggests

04:28.040 --> 04:35.330
that travel and tourism is the number one ranked employer in the Bahamas Brazil Canada France West Germany

04:35.330 --> 04:41.000
Hong Kong Italy Jamaica Japan Japan and blah blah blah blah blah other countries.

04:41.000 --> 04:47.090
So we're looking for language connected to major.

04:47.390 --> 04:47.920
All right.

04:47.980 --> 04:54.390
And here this says is the number one ranked employer.

04:54.450 --> 04:54.780
All right.

04:54.780 --> 04:59.300
The language number one ranked is synonym for saying Major.

04:59.520 --> 05:04.530
So our answer is employer does our answer from the sentence employer.

05:04.770 --> 05:09.150
Were you're looking at the language that comes before and after the blank line you have to look for

05:09.150 --> 05:10.260
similar language.

05:10.260 --> 05:15.510
That means the same thing is not a lot of times they're not going to give you the exact same words.

05:15.510 --> 05:17.810
Remember this is an English test.

05:17.850 --> 05:18.790
All right.

05:18.910 --> 05:21.060
So the English test.

05:21.060 --> 05:22.410
So you got to keep that in mind.

05:22.410 --> 05:25.070
This is an English test.

05:25.120 --> 05:28.040
I'll look for synonyms.

05:28.200 --> 05:34.620
And now number 13 the problems associated with measuring international tourism are often reflected in

05:34.620 --> 05:39.820
the measurement of measurement of key words are problems.

05:39.880 --> 05:41.640
National Tourism.

05:41.640 --> 05:46.830
We know what has to come after this into Jamaica because this is a fill in the blank question and the

05:46.830 --> 05:49.200
questions go in order.

05:49.740 --> 05:50.490
All right so

05:55.130 --> 05:58.870
see here we go.

05:58.880 --> 06:01.110
Here's the word difficulties.

06:01.130 --> 06:02.040
All right.

06:02.280 --> 06:08.230
Difficulties difficulties is a synonym for the word problems.

06:08.240 --> 06:16.080
This is the only sentence does the sentence that I'm looking for right now.

06:16.080 --> 06:23.100
You might look at this previous sentence also because it talks about problems of definition that we

06:23.100 --> 06:28.310
have the worst statistical measurement or satirical measurement.

06:28.470 --> 06:32.030
But really this is our senses we need to look at right here.

06:32.040 --> 06:38.850
This is the one actually in many cases similar difficulties arise when attempts are made to measure

06:39.360 --> 06:41.940
domestic tourism.

06:41.970 --> 06:48.540
Her answer here is domestic tourism difficulty synonym for problems.

06:48.730 --> 06:49.070
Right.

06:49.080 --> 06:50.850
That's our that's our set to see.

06:50.990 --> 06:58.110
I know that's our sentence because they're using synonym language the sentence before a lot of students

06:58.110 --> 07:04.140
might go to it because they see the exact word problems but our answer is coming from that last sentence

07:04.530 --> 07:08.640
because you have to look for synonyms language that's an English test.

07:08.670 --> 07:12.820
Give somebody a recognized synonym language is very helpful to be able to find.

07:12.900 --> 07:19.810
This is the right sentence because when the test maker looks at a sentence to make a question they're

07:19.830 --> 07:24.930
going to make the question and try to use synonyms for what's in the reading passage.

07:24.970 --> 07:28.970
So you have to be aware of that when you're trying to make sure you find the right sentence.

07:29.070 --> 07:35.930
So the answer to that last question is going to be domestic tourism is going to be that answer.

07:36.090 --> 07:37.710
The measurement of domestic tourism.

07:37.780 --> 07:38.440
OK.

07:38.730 --> 07:41.360
So that will do.

07:41.370 --> 07:49.300
For that example and let's go ahead and do one more to make sure you clearly understand how to do.

07:49.310 --> 07:51.800
Hey Fill in the blank question talk to you soon.
