WEBVTT 00:01.250 --> 00:01.510 OK 00:09.210 --> 00:11.840 no it can't be number seven He's not publishing anything. 00:11.830 --> 00:18.200 Priyanka Priyanka Where do you see something about publishing. 00:18.220 --> 00:20.290 Why why did you choose that answer. 00:20.350 --> 00:22.890 Re-architect you tilt type and tell me why 00:26.100 --> 00:32.480 writing writing in a book doesn't mean publishing right does not say anything about a theory. 00:36.850 --> 00:37.170 Right. 00:37.180 --> 00:41.640 You're making you're making when you're doing this question. 00:41.640 --> 00:47.520 This is not an inference question you cannot make an inference. 00:47.540 --> 00:49.430 No no no no. 00:49.430 --> 00:57.930 Approach is not what the theory does not know or I would the topic sentence say as he wrote in a vivid 00:57.930 --> 01:02.980 style that's all right. 01:02.980 --> 01:06.260 That means a whole paragraph is about how he wrote in a vivid style. 01:06.280 --> 01:09.580 That's what the whole paragraph is about. 01:09.790 --> 01:12.970 Based on the topic sentence right. 01:12.970 --> 01:18.910 This is why people mess up in their writing also because in their in your writing a lot of you a lot 01:18.910 --> 01:24.910 of you guys are writing the topic sentence and then you have other sentences in your paragraph that 01:24.910 --> 01:27.210 do not match your top accent. 01:27.820 --> 01:35.340 If you if you read this whole paragraph you would read that all of it is about his vivid style. 01:35.500 --> 01:39.640 What I don't have to read the whole paragraph because I get the topic so this tells me that's what it's 01:39.640 --> 01:40.120 about 01:46.840 --> 01:53.030 right so don't make inferences that gets you in a lot of trouble when you try to make an inference. 01:53.230 --> 01:55.990 That's a recipe for a lot of trouble. 01:55.990 --> 01:58.550 Don't inference don't make inferences. 01:59.650 --> 02:01.680 All right one more there wrathy 02:35.890 --> 02:41.230 look at the first two sentences and choose a match in meaning 03:27.810 --> 03:33.280 don't read the whole paragraph reading the whole B-raf is not going to help you. 03:33.630 --> 03:36.190 The first two sentences have the answer. 03:52.980 --> 04:00.070 Amir where where do you see something about a lack of enthusiasm or a pub. 04:00.070 --> 04:02.440 No use said publishing is theory 04:05.430 --> 04:05.800 right. 04:05.800 --> 04:07.960 There's nothing about publishing a theory. 04:08.870 --> 04:15.450 You see no language related to and related to publishing or theory is 04:22.030 --> 04:22.580 right. 04:22.620 --> 04:27.200 There's nothing about the aim of a trip right. 04:27.200 --> 04:32.810 There's no synonym for the word synonym for the word aim is a goal. 04:33.170 --> 04:33.580 Right. 04:33.590 --> 04:38.690 You see goal purpose writing is nothing about a trip 04:43.840 --> 04:44.300 no. 04:44.300 --> 04:48.510 Most of it is not about gaining support. 04:48.540 --> 04:49.840 Come on guys. 04:50.310 --> 04:51.040 All right. 04:51.040 --> 04:52.640 Priyanka you're correct. 04:54.400 --> 04:59.400 And my no name student who's just waiting for a name. 04:59.410 --> 05:00.990 You are correct also. 05:02.480 --> 05:03.330 All right. 05:03.590 --> 05:07.300 The correct answer is different accounts of the same journey. 05:08.480 --> 05:15.500 We should remember however that the last city of the Incas is a work of hindsight not waiting until 05:15.500 --> 05:19.090 1948 many years asss his journey. 05:19.100 --> 05:27.310 However his journey entries of the time reveal a much more gradual appreciation of his sheep. 05:27.710 --> 05:30.690 So we have two different accounts. 05:30.770 --> 05:33.770 We are the first account that was written many years after. 05:34.160 --> 05:42.250 But then his journals reveal a different situation a much more gradual appreciation right we have different 05:42.250 --> 05:44.560 accounts of the same journey. 05:45.100 --> 05:54.290 We have the the the book itself and we have his journal entries for sentences about his book next sentence 05:54.290 --> 06:04.560 tells us his journal was different only one answer matches that number one you look at the first two 06:04.560 --> 06:05.900 sentences. 06:06.270 --> 06:11.240 You understand the controlling idea you have here. 06:11.850 --> 06:20.970 You pick a match you can't choose an answer choice that has information that does not exist in those 06:20.970 --> 06:22.390 sentences. 06:22.410 --> 06:24.810 You are not making inferences. 06:25.160 --> 06:26.060 OK. 06:26.430 --> 06:29.030 No inferences. 06:29.100 --> 06:29.460 All right. 06:29.460 --> 06:33.740 So we are going to stop here. 06:33.780 --> 06:41.550 I just hope that you guys understand a little bit more about reading strategy for the Isles exam. 06:42.090 --> 06:53.810 This strategy applies to the general and the academic if you like to have a if you want to see a copy 06:53.810 --> 06:58.760 of the recording I can send you a link so if you want to watch it again you're more than welcome to 07:00.380 --> 07:01.580 the key things that you're doing. 07:01.580 --> 07:08.300 Well it is going to be your ability to improve your scanning and also your ability to apply strategy 07:08.300 --> 07:09.900 correctly. 07:09.910 --> 07:10.570 Right. 07:10.580 --> 07:16.160 People mess up all the endings question a lot because they make a lot of difference and you're not making 07:16.160 --> 07:16.910 a difference. 07:17.720 --> 07:18.220 Right. 07:18.380 --> 07:23.730 You're finding a controlling main idea and then finding that same thing as a heading. 07:24.110 --> 07:25.950 That's what a heading is right. 07:25.960 --> 07:32.630 A heading is a title is like if they change the question to say what will be the title of this paragraph. 07:33.580 --> 07:38.150 And if you're going to put a title of a paragraph that's based on the controlling main idea of the paragraph 07:38.900 --> 07:42.360 and that's always pretty much located in the first two sentences. 07:42.650 --> 07:48.100 If you noticed the questions we did get to eat only one of them we needed to look at the last sentence. 07:48.110 --> 07:51.460 Like I told you 80 to 85 percent of the time. 07:51.650 --> 07:59.110 First two sentences will give you the idea that you really write what you've got to get better at Matching 07:59.110 --> 08:00.040 meaning. 08:00.350 --> 08:04.290 Ok not making an inference about what you think. 08:04.510 --> 08:11.330 OK there's no question of the Isles exam where they ask you what you think or reading comprehension 08:12.050 --> 08:18.360 or listening there are no questions for reading and listening to ask you what you think. 08:20.260 --> 08:20.690 Right. 08:20.770 --> 08:26.830 The reason why there are no questions I ask you what she said is because it's a standardized test. 08:28.390 --> 08:35.270 And they can't ask questions about what she think because if they do that you can get varied answers. 08:36.280 --> 08:39.220 So questions are never asking about what she's saying. 08:40.060 --> 08:47.710 The only two parts of the test that ask about what you think are speaking which is a subjective output 08:48.100 --> 08:56.410 response and writing which is a subjective output response those are the only two areas of the exam 08:56.410 --> 08:58.390 where they want to know what you think. 08:59.670 --> 09:00.160 Right. 09:00.210 --> 09:06.360 So one is reading is about Apple's strict application of strategy strict application of understanding 09:06.360 --> 09:12.510 meaning but not inferencing right not about what you think. 09:12.510 --> 09:12.930 All right. 09:12.940 --> 09:14.370 Now before I close up. 09:14.370 --> 09:16.130 Does anybody have any questions. 09:28.080 --> 09:35.640 There will be another live class not this not next weekend but the weekend after that which is like 09:35.640 --> 09:47.150 the 17th so it will be around that time but I will send a notification to let people know 09:53.850 --> 09:55.180 in terms of headings question. 09:55.180 --> 10:02.220 Amir yaphet is focus on trying your best to look at the first two sentences and trying to pick something 10:02.220 --> 10:06.890 that matches you know you have to be able to identify the controlling idea. 10:08.850 --> 10:17.640 McHale I did a I did a general reading session a few weeks ago if you want to look at if you want to 10:17.640 --> 10:24.300 see the recording of that class send me an email and I will send you the link that has a recording to 10:24.300 --> 10:25.600 that class. 10:25.680 --> 10:31.380 When you hear that when you hear the recording of that class youll see that the strategy is exactly 10:31.380 --> 10:37.000 the same but the passages are more are more simple loci. 10:37.390 --> 10:41.670 But if you ask me for I will send you the link so you can watch that video. 10:41.720 --> 10:42.360 OK. 10:50.780 --> 10:57.960 There is a previous class recording for the general exam for the general letter for the for for the 10:57.960 --> 10:59.750 reading. 11:00.850 --> 11:06.330 I'm going to I'm going to make this recording available today for the reading. 11:07.170 --> 11:17.260 And and in the upcoming class I'm going to do a live class for the for the writing and I'm also going 11:17.260 --> 11:19.260 to a live class for the listening. 11:19.540 --> 11:25.710 So I someone do live classes for for both the get there that's going to be coming up but there are no 11:25.710 --> 11:30.270 other previous ones that I have. 11:31.380 --> 11:31.700 All right. 11:31.710 --> 11:34.610 So thank you very much everybody for attending. 11:34.920 --> 11:38.270 Thank you for participating in the course. 11:38.280 --> 11:43.710 Please make sure when you finish the course to give us a review and let us know how you feel about the 11:43.710 --> 11:44.660 course of the course. 11:44.670 --> 11:45.240 Good for you. 11:45.240 --> 11:47.240 We appreciate good reviews. 11:47.510 --> 11:51.910 It gives us encouragement to do more like these like classis. 11:52.080 --> 12:00.390 So if you can review to others that these classes are a benefit to you then it helps me to be able to 12:00.390 --> 12:01.700 do it. 12:02.010 --> 12:08.070 If there's low participation then it's more it's not less likely that I might do the live classes because 12:08.070 --> 12:14.310 I have to invest in the software and the time with the company to be able to do live classes but I don't 12:14.310 --> 12:16.020 do it if there's a lot participation. 12:16.020 --> 12:23.050 So your reviews your good reviews are very helpful to encourage people to participate in the live classes 12:23.070 --> 12:27.770 so do take the course please do a review. 12:28.230 --> 12:32.700 And I hope that you're enjoying it and if you have any questions always feel free to ask. 12:32.820 --> 12:33.760 Okay. 12:34.650 --> 12:36.270 Thank you very much. 12:51.190 --> 12:55.370 Everybody you're welcome and I hope that everything in your benefit. 12:55.370 --> 12:58.570 And I wish you all to have good luck. 12:58.570 --> 13:05.380 One thing that I'll say that I'll say this very quickly tips if you're still listening one thing one 13:05.380 --> 13:09.870 area of the exam there are a lot of students don't work on. 13:10.180 --> 13:17.980 That's probably the most effective thing to doing well in the exam is your ability to relax and to be 13:17.980 --> 13:19.960 focused during the exam. 13:20.500 --> 13:24.580 A lot of times people don't do their best because they don't know how to relax and focus during that 13:24.580 --> 13:25.380 exam. 13:25.960 --> 13:33.420 So the one thing that you have to actually work on doing is you have to work on being able to be relaxed 13:33.510 --> 13:35.840 and mindful during the exam. 13:36.570 --> 13:39.470 Focus on each question one at a time. 13:39.810 --> 13:43.090 Make sure you focus on your strategy for the questions when you're doing them. 13:44.550 --> 13:52.590 But the ones that do better are the ones that are very well-prepared that are confident and are relaxed 13:52.620 --> 13:53.710 during the exam. 13:54.740 --> 14:00.910 Some most people are not automatically confident and relax is something you develop. 14:01.250 --> 14:01.570 Right. 14:01.570 --> 14:06.980 So if you want to if you want to do well at the exam you need to develop your confidence. 14:07.010 --> 14:09.360 You need to develop your mindfulness. 14:09.560 --> 14:15.770 You need to develop your focus and most of all you have to be able to be mentally relaxed during the 14:15.770 --> 14:16.630 exam. 14:17.450 --> 14:22.880 If your stress level is high you are not going to do as well as you can. 14:22.880 --> 14:25.670 Stress makes you make mistakes. 14:25.790 --> 14:33.020 So if you want to do well in addition to your strategies you have to learn to be better in that area 14:33.950 --> 14:35.080 the better you are. 14:35.090 --> 14:42.530 Stress management mental focus mindfulness on a specific question the higher your score is going to 14:42.530 --> 14:45.380 be and being well prepared. 14:45.380 --> 14:45.970 All right. 14:46.220 --> 14:49.860 So any last questions before I sign off. 14:58.810 --> 14:59.260 No. 14:59.290 --> 14:59.800 OK. 14:59.820 --> 15:06.670 All right so I will look for your e-mails if you want the recording to send me email let me know. 15:06.670 --> 15:08.930 Thanks a lot and have a great day.
