00:00:00hi sir good morning
00:00:19hi hi shivet
00:00:23uh sir uh today i'll i mean uh morning i'll be at 30 minutes because i have to drive
00:00:36it's to the school sorry for that time i'll take the full course at two o'clock
00:00:43yeah sure
00:00:53you
00:01:23you
00:01:53you
00:01:55you
00:02:53All right. Welcome, everyone. Let's start the session. So today it is summarize written text. Hope the grammar sessions that we ran up until yesterday
00:03:23works closely with your writing, reading and other modules. Okay. So today what we'll do is we'll focus on summarize written text. What is the task all about? What is the strategy? How can you approach this effectively? Okay. Let me start sharing the screen.
00:03:53All right. So here is the overview of the task. After reading a text, write a one sentence summary of the passage.
00:04:10Make sure to include the main points of the reading passage in a full single sentence of 5 to 75 words. Okay. So make sure to include the main points of the reading passage in a full single sentence of 5 to 75 words.
00:04:27This is the first PT writing task. Skills assessed are your reading and writing. Why? Because you're actually reading a text and then writing a one sentence summary.
00:04:39Length of the reading text, up to 300 words. What is charged? Your ability to read a big text and ability to write it in one sentence.
00:04:48More of questions. More of questions. Usually one to two in a test. A located time for each question, 10 minutes. So, which means you will have enough time to meditate and finalize your response.
00:05:04So how does the layout look? So you have your question prompt, right? The passage to read, writing space and your word counter.
00:05:18Your cut, copy, paste buttons. Remember these buttons are dynamic to this section only. You can copy, paste, whatever you want. You can move it here and there. And your timer on the other side.
00:05:34Okay. Now, what is the scoring metric? Your response must be expressed within one sentence.
00:05:41So you will need to use a complex or compound sentence to be able to summarize the main point of the passage and also briefly mention the supporting detail.
00:05:50So yesterday, we have seen the SVO concept on how to build sentence. Do you remember?
00:05:57Anyways, in a while, I will also recapitulate the same so that you will have an idea of how to approach this.
00:06:07So content part, focus on the topic, including only key information and essential supporting points.
00:06:14Let's form one sentence of 5 to 75 words.
00:06:20Grammar. Basic structure of the sentence should be correct.
00:06:23What is the basic structure of the sentence?
00:06:25Subject, verb, object.
00:06:27The best responses usually consist of a main clause and subordinate clause.
00:06:33Vocabulary. It is scored according to its relevance to the passage and its appropriateness in an academic environment.
00:06:41So relevance and appropriateness are important.
00:06:48Okay. So here are the score table, the scoring metrics.
00:06:53So for content, if all relevant aspects are covered, you're getting your two points.
00:06:59If it is partially covered, only one.
00:07:02And irrelevant content, zero.
00:07:05And coming to the form, if you have covered 5 to 75 words, yes, you're getting your one point.
00:07:16And zero will be less than 5 or greater than 75.
00:07:21And grammar, once again, if it is correct, you'll get two points for grammar.
00:07:24And if it is having few mistakes, then you'll lose one point.
00:07:30Zero is awarded if the sentence is full of mistakes.
00:07:34Vocabulary, appropriate choice of words.
00:07:37And one point if you have used only some appropriate words.
00:07:42So irrelevant words will not have any credits.
00:07:47Now, what is the super strategy that you need to follow?
00:07:50Divide your time optimally.
00:07:52Okay. Read the text given.
00:07:55Read the passage given.
00:07:57Spend about 2 to 3 minutes.
00:07:59Right.
00:08:00And then write.
00:08:01Use 4 to 5 minutes for your writing.
00:08:06Okay.
00:08:07And then please save some time for editing.
00:08:10Right.
00:08:11Editing in the sense to make corrections, to make sure that you're completely confident with your response.
00:08:20Step 1.
00:08:20Skim read the text.
00:08:24Okay.
00:08:25So it takes a lot of fuel to launch something into space.
00:08:29Sending in the sense.
00:08:30And you have a passage here.
00:08:32And remember your passage is above 300 words, which means a big one.
00:08:36Right.
00:08:37So we suggest that you skim read the text.
00:08:41So that you will get the essence of it first.
00:08:47Okay.
00:08:48And step 2.
00:08:50Deep read the text.
00:08:51Okay.
00:08:52In the first place, you're just rolling your eyes on all the paragraphs.
00:08:56In the second step, you're making sure that you identify the keywords.
00:09:02For example, in the first paragraph of the passage, you have fuel, launch, space, a new type of engine, rotating detonation engine, and so forth.
00:09:11So please note down the keywords and if phrases in just two minutes.
00:09:17Okay.
00:09:19Here is the pattern.
00:09:22See, there are about four bullet points with all the key points required.
00:09:26A lot of fuel to launch into space.
00:09:28New type of engine.
00:09:29Rotating detonation engine.
00:09:31More fuel efficient and lightweight and less complicated but too unpredictable.
00:09:34See, you also are okay.
00:09:37Like, you'll also do okay if you're able to make note of short phrases.
00:09:42Okay.
00:09:43Gaps between the cylinders to cause rapid heat and shockwave gas with high pressure and temperature.
00:09:49So, in some places, keywords and in some places, key phrases.
00:09:56Okay.
00:09:56If you're able to make valid notes of about four to five points with enough keywords present in it,
00:10:04yes, you can actually construct a valid response.
00:10:08Now, convert the keyword into a sentence.
00:10:12Tip.
00:10:13Imagine you're explaining this to someone else.
00:10:15How would you do this?
00:10:16Simple.
00:10:17So, you have read that.
00:10:18Now, you have to explain it to someone.
00:10:20You explain the same in a storytelling fashion.
00:10:24Okay.
00:10:24Question yourself.
00:10:25What is the main idea of the text?
00:10:27Okay.
00:10:27Okay.
00:10:28So, this is about rocket launching into the space.
00:10:31Yeah.
00:10:31That is your main idea.
00:10:32And never include your own ideas.
00:10:36Absolutely not.
00:10:38Okay.
00:10:39So, please, remember, you should not include your own ideas.
00:10:44Right.
00:10:44So, we emphasize in bold letters, absolutely not.
00:10:49Learn to paraphrase and use synonyms wherever possible.
00:10:53So, what is paraphrasing, friends?
00:10:55See, text is in front of your eyes.
00:10:57Right.
00:10:57It takes a lot of fuel to launch something into space.
00:11:01Paraphrasing is nothing but stating the same thing in different words.
00:11:05Can anyone help me to say the same thing in this sentence in different words?
00:11:10You can unmute yourself and make an attempt.
00:11:17It takes a lot of fuel to launch something into space.
00:11:22To launch something into the space, we need a lot of fuel.
00:11:27Okay.
00:11:29Right.
00:11:30See, to launch something into space, you need a lot of fuel.
00:11:34You almost had every word from it.
00:11:36Can you say it differently?
00:11:40In order to...
00:11:41More fuel is required to launch into space.
00:11:45Yeah.
00:11:46All right.
00:11:46So, that's the way to paraphrase it.
00:11:50All right.
00:11:53More fuel is required to launch something into the space.
00:11:57Okay.
00:11:59Right.
00:11:59So, there are different ways of doing that.
00:12:02Right.
00:12:03The amount of fuel required to launch something into the space is huge.
00:12:10Right.
00:12:11In order to launch anything in the space, we need lots of fuel.
00:12:15Plenty of fuel.
00:12:15Yeah.
00:12:16So, exactly.
00:12:17But remember, friends, you will not have enough time to paraphrase every sentence of the passage.
00:12:22I just gave you a sample.
00:12:25Okay.
00:12:25I just underlined one statement.
00:12:26But we want you to actually summarize one full paragraph into one line, if possible.
00:12:34Okay.
00:12:34All right.
00:12:35Let's get back to the tip.
00:12:37Learn to paraphrase or use synonyms wherever possible.
00:12:41See, that's what I did.
00:12:42Right.
00:12:45The amount of fuel required.
00:12:47Instead of saying lots of fuel, I said the amount of fuel required to launch something into the space
00:12:53is surmountably high or is too high.
00:12:57Something like that.
00:12:58Okay.
00:12:59All right.
00:13:00Use conjunctions to merge two sentences.
00:13:03Though, however, and, but, etc.
00:13:07Only 30 to 45 words.
00:13:09Why?
00:13:10Writing longer sentences makes it error prone.
00:13:15In the sense, though we asked you to, you know, the response should be between 75 words.
00:13:25We suggest that a good response be between 30 to 45.
00:13:30Why?
00:13:31The more you write, the more mistakes can happen.
00:13:35So, you don't have to focus on minute details like 1.2 point something, 1.2 point heads.
00:13:42So, just don't focus on those minute details.
00:13:45You just focus on the major details that will complete a valid response.
00:13:51Now, convert the keywords or key phrases into a sentence.
00:13:55See, now I have got about six points with me.
00:13:57I need to make these keywords, convert these keywords into sentences.
00:14:05Right?
00:14:10All right.
00:14:11Do you see a sample here?
00:14:21What do you think about this paragraph?
00:14:23Can you help me understand how these little points that I've written earlier made a valid
00:14:31sentence for me?
00:14:36Can you repeat it, sir, again?
00:14:39Yeah.
00:14:39Can anyone help me understand how these little bullet points helped me to make one full sentence?
00:14:46So, this is just one sentence.
00:14:50Use of conjection and it is like a story, a short story.
00:14:54Yeah, very good.
00:14:55Excellent.
00:14:56See, conventional rocket engines use a lot of machinery to burn propellants and a lot
00:15:02of fuel to launch rockets into space.
00:15:04But a new type of engine called as rotating detonation engine uses rapid heat and shockwave
00:15:10and is more fuel efficient, lightweight and simple.
00:15:13Finish.
00:15:13You see, just three conjunctions.
00:15:17One, two, three.
00:15:18You were able to construct a full sentence.
00:15:22Okay?
00:15:24Step four.
00:15:25Edit and refine.
00:15:27You just spend two minutes because this is sort of crucial stage for you.
00:15:32You should check for your punctuation, grammar and simplify the sentences if they need be.
00:15:38Okay?
00:15:39See now.
00:15:40Here is a valid response.
00:15:42Conventional rocket engines are complex.
00:15:46Okay.
00:15:46It's a good one.
00:15:48See, now what did I do?
00:15:49I introduced a nice word.
00:15:51Are complex.
00:15:52And use high amount of fuel to launch rockets into space.
00:15:56This is what I was trying to say some time ago.
00:15:59Use a different word.
00:16:00Instead of saying lots of fuel, say high amount of fuel.
00:16:03Right?
00:16:03Or the amount of fuel to launch rockets into space is too high.
00:16:07But newly developed rotating detonation engines are simpler, lightweight, and more fuel efficient.
00:16:13And make sure of your punctuations.
00:16:15Commas, full stops, conjunctions.
00:16:20Okay?
00:16:21All right.
00:16:22Now let's practice this.
00:16:25So everyone, what we'll do is stop sharing this.
00:16:30Sorry.
00:16:31I'll just stop sharing it in the monitor slide.
00:16:34Okay?
00:16:45I hope the size is okay.
00:17:08Yeah?
00:17:08So friends, all of you now, please skim read the text.
00:17:18Don't try to make any notes at this point.
00:17:21Just skim read.
00:17:23Have an idea of what it is all about.
00:17:38Okay?
00:17:39Hope you got an idea of what it is all about.
00:17:42Right?
00:17:43Now let's go to step two.
00:17:52I'll not show the notes.
00:17:58Deep read the text and note down the keywords and key phrases.
00:18:03Okay?
00:18:05So it's better that I keep the white text here.
00:18:08All of you, try the same thing.
00:18:14You finished skim reading.
00:18:16Now you're making notes by deep reading the text.
00:18:27So you should be able to build a sentence of at least 45 words,
00:18:31which means you need proper substance to it.
00:18:38Make note of the keywords and key phrases.
00:18:56Step three.
00:18:57Can anyone tell me what you'll do now in step three?
00:18:59Identify the keywords.
00:19:06Okay.
00:19:06Identify the keywords.
00:19:08It's done.
00:19:09Now you made notes.
00:19:10You made notes.
00:19:11Right?
00:19:12You made notes.
00:19:14Now what will you do in step three?
00:19:16Try to form a crude sentence,
00:19:19a raw form of your sentence.
00:19:21Don't focus on the grammar.
00:19:22Don't focus on anything.
00:19:23Make few sentences in the next step.
00:19:26Okay?
00:19:29And as a step four, you just edit them.
00:20:00Okay.
00:20:06Okay.
00:20:07Now let's find out,
00:20:08okay.
00:20:09Go.
00:20:09Go.
00:20:10Go.
00:20:10Go.
00:20:10Go.
00:20:11Go.
00:20:12Go.
00:20:13Good.
00:20:13Go.
00:20:14Go.
00:20:14Go.
00:20:16Go.
00:20:17Go.
00:20:18Go.
00:20:20Go.
00:20:25Go.
00:20:26Go.
00:20:26Alright, hope everyone
00:20:52reached step number three
00:20:54Yeah
00:20:56If you have made your rough form of a paragraph or a crude form of your paragraph please
00:21:06edit it
00:21:26Once you are done, start posting them on the chat
00:21:37Your goal is to write a sentence of 35-45 words with good connectives, appropriate ones
00:21:50Okay, I stopped sharing the screen because you have your main points with you now.
00:22:00Okay, I stopped sharing the screen because you have your main points with you now.
00:22:09Okay, I stopped sharing the screen because you have your main points with you now.
00:22:19Okay, I stopped sharing the screen because you have your main points with you now.
00:22:28Okay, I stopped sharing the screen because you have your main points with you now.
00:22:34Okay, I stopped sharing the screen.
00:22:38Okay, I stopped sharing the screen.
00:22:47Okay, I stopped sharing the screen.
00:22:48Okay, I stopped sharing the screen.
00:22:57Okay, I stopped sharing the screen.
00:24:38Sir, can you show the text for...
00:24:49Yeah, sure.
00:25:23Your friends, looks like you're still writing.
00:25:30So, let me ask you, what key words did you make note of?
00:25:35Can you tell me that first?
00:25:37Plastic animals, microscopic particles.
00:25:44Okay.
00:25:46It accumulates toward the body of some snakes.
00:25:51And they are exposed to nanoplastic particles of different size.
00:25:57Okay.
00:25:59After, no, that is not an important one.
00:26:02And the last part is the bigger nanoplastics found in the body.
00:26:06That's it.
00:26:07Okay.
00:26:08All right.
00:26:09Those are decently good.
00:26:10Right?
00:26:11Any other words, friends?
00:26:12So, now what you'll do is, I'll show you a template.
00:26:21Okay?
00:26:22Try to put those keywords in the template.
00:26:25Will that work?
00:26:26Will that help you?
00:26:27Let me share it in the form of a slide.
00:26:29See, these are some keywords that you should have made note of.
00:26:36But, okay.
00:26:37There are other ways of giving valid response as well.
00:26:48I'll just give you the template straight away.
00:26:51Okay?
00:26:54All right.
00:26:54See, now try to put your keywords or key phrases in this template, friends.
00:27:04This will help you to write 260 to 80 words.
00:27:18All of you now try to make use of this template.
00:27:24Sorry, in PTE core, it's a wall limit is 25 to 50 only.
00:27:42Yeah, yeah.
00:27:42I'll show you the core one also.
00:27:45Just give me a moment.
00:27:51You have both the templates here.
00:27:52So, that should help you.
00:28:00This is your core template.
00:28:03You can make note of it.
00:28:04I think for everyone, we suggest that you construct a valid response of 245 words.
00:28:20Okay, if you manage to get there, you will score decently well.
00:28:27So, I'll do one thing.
00:28:33I'll just put both the things here.
00:28:36Is that okay?
00:28:38You can actually make use of both the templates.
00:28:40Just give me a moment.
00:28:45It's more or less the same, actually.
00:28:47But this one is much clearer, I feel.
00:29:51Okay, instead of posting it on the chat, you can just read out.
00:29:57Whoever is ready can start.
00:30:29Next.
00:30:30You mean the paragraph?
00:30:34Yeah.
00:30:36This one?
00:30:39Try to hit it a little down.
00:30:54I think the size goes down.
00:30:55Is this okay?
00:31:01Yeah.
00:31:02Yeah.
00:31:03Yeah.
00:31:08Yeah.
00:31:11Yeah.
00:31:12Shall I start?
00:31:13Yeah.
00:31:14Please just give me a moment.
00:31:20Yeah.
00:31:21Yeah.
00:31:22Yeah.
00:31:23Yeah.
00:31:24Please start.
00:31:25Yeah.
00:31:26Yeah.
00:31:27Yeah.
00:31:28Yeah.
00:31:29Yeah.
00:31:30Yeah.
00:31:31Yeah.
00:31:32Yeah.
00:31:33Yeah.
00:31:34Yeah.
00:31:35Yeah.
00:31:37Yeah.
00:31:38The text provides information about how important is plastic in our living things, which suggests
00:31:51that litter and waste plastics are a form of microscopic particles which are present in water and food.
00:31:58Yeah.
00:31:59Yeah.
00:32:00Yeah.
00:32:01Yeah.
00:32:02Yeah.
00:32:03muchas.
00:32:04OK.
00:32:05Yeah.
00:32:06Yeah.
00:32:07OK.
00:32:08really that much yes sir okay all right so try to conclude it
00:32:20uh is that anil or ravindran ravindran yeah ravindran yeah that was decently okay it was a
00:32:30good response anyone else ready with your response subhajit vila tejas valita valakrishna
00:32:47few more minutes sir just two more minutes here
00:32:54okay so you can ask one thing yeah please for this one like we can use like that templates
00:33:02and just add a keyword so we need to make all the sentences like that yeah you can actually add
00:33:09keywords or key phrases okay okay which is yeah that's why i showed you the other one just a while
00:33:15ago see keyword or key phrase do you see on the right side of my screen here keyword or key phrase
00:33:23keyword or key phrase yeah oh it's mean that we need to remember this like templates here
00:33:29yeah always yes because template style will help you with the structure balakrishna
00:33:36if you don't have a structure in mind we'll mess it up yep okay so this gives you an idea of how to
00:33:44start and how to end okay because if we don't follow this template we might tend to end
00:33:53our sentence within 10 words and then start a new sentence okay here we are actually educating
00:34:00you with the connectives also right like furthermore however hey there are different types yeah yeah
00:34:11if you're finding it too difficult you can go for this one as well sentence one from passage one
00:34:20sentence two from passage two but or hand sentence three of passage three or passage four this is a
00:34:25simpler one yep so ravindran can you check your response once yeah check your response once
00:34:35and make sure that you covered all the paragraphs okay sure sir sure yeah yeah all of you can try that
00:34:45one one sentence can come from one paragraph this is another type okay this is template one and this is
00:35:08template two this is about 40 to 60 words the previous one this will help you to go up to 75 words but this
00:35:15one you can limit it to 42 60 it should be good enough for either core or academic students
00:35:22can i speak yeah please uh the text provide the information about the nanoparticles of the plastic how it
00:35:37it survive in the body it survive in the body first and foremost first and foremost first and foremost
00:35:44nanoparticles in the body but uh how plastic uh first and foremost how plastic breakdown in the uh
00:35:54microplastic microscopic particles in the body after uh hours and hours uh through the through the scientific
00:36:05uh
00:36:06uh
00:36:07subhajit is it subhajit yeah yeah yeah subhajit your second sentence states first and foremost
00:36:16when you say first and foremost it is starting a new sentence subject
00:36:20you should give the whole response in one sentence you start and end
00:36:27yeah okay so the word that you use should not be misleading again
00:36:32got the point so when you use the connective make sure that it fits in the middle of a sentence when
00:36:40you say first and foremost it actually starts it in sentence it doesn't connect a sentence
00:36:44yeah yeah okay you got my point yeah yeah so what you can do yeah just try this out yeah
00:36:53we suggest that oh
00:36:57uh through the uh scientific experiment of the scientist they found in the snails plastic survive more than six
00:37:07six hours however when it puts into a water uh sub water body it uh goes away after an hour
00:37:16okay that's all all right it's it's okay now i think only one sentence had an issue
00:37:22so in a while what i'll do is i'll show you one question from the prediction file
00:37:26i request that everyone uh post their answer here okay i want to see how we have written it
00:37:36okay would anyone want to try to read that out who else is ready may i try it yeah please
00:37:46uh the text provide information about plastics which suggest that the mic or microscopic plastics
00:37:52and placed in the kidney furthermore the distinctive ex aspects of the exposed to clear water as well
00:37:58as accumulation in the bodies were outlined however the importance of breakdown practice plastics could be
00:38:04uh or empathize okay very good so i think most of the uh just is covered good efforts next
00:38:20okay
00:38:28thank you pages leela you already uh yes yes i just one i'm just editing
00:38:38okay
00:38:41the text information about neoplastic waste found in the snails bodies plastics plastics are essential these days
00:38:48significantly plastics are found in everywhere scientists have examined the snails under the
00:38:54microscopic found millions of neoplastic in snails kidney liver and intestines
00:39:00scientists have separated them to a clear water still the small particles were found which excreted within two days
00:39:06however the larger particles remains in the snail bodies after several weeks had passed
00:39:10okay that was a decent one leela very good efforts so when you i think the last but one sentence you started with scientists right
00:39:22before scientists i felt like you have concluded the sentence you started off a new sentence
00:39:28we need a small connective there uh leela otherwise your response was very good okay yeah and i was still
00:39:34trying to edit little bit yeah okay okay and lalita your uh answer is excellent you covered almost every point
00:39:42that's a good one and joshika the text provides information about plastics everywhere which includes living things
00:39:48living things furthermore the distinctive aspects of wasteplast were down as well as millions of
00:39:52nanoplastics were outland however the importance of maybe she's still editing yeah
00:39:58i think slowly you're all able to understand what it is all about
00:40:02but sir the word count i got is around 62 but i still have to
00:40:08yeah see anything ranging between 60 to 80 60 to 75 is fine
00:40:14because we usually suggest the students to make at least a good response of 45 words
00:40:20okay so you cross that no problem you'll still score well
00:40:24okay so the relevance and appropriateness two things
00:40:28okay and word count should not be less than five or ten yeah
00:40:34anyways while summarizing the whole thing i'll just show you the slide where
00:40:42the slide where you can remember how it impacts your scoring
00:40:56okay so joshika you are about to finish your response i feel
00:41:00in the meantime may i open so i have a question yeah please
00:41:06so wherever we use these conjunctions like however furthermore but do i have to put a comma and then start another sentence or yes yes comma comma is required for but how do we where do we put so because
00:41:20some sentences it comes before and some sentences if i'm capitalizing the but then it should be after but right
00:41:28yeah just a moment don't capitalize
00:41:30because if you capitalize but
00:41:32what happens it starts a new sentence
00:41:34yeah okay
00:41:36it should be a small letter so what you do
00:41:38is before but you have a comma
00:41:40and then you start with but
00:41:42okay when you capitalize but
00:41:44the comma comes after but
00:41:46because you'll have a full stop before but
00:41:48okay so okay for example
00:41:50let me write it down i think
00:41:52i you understood it already
00:41:54just to make sure
00:41:56whether you're talking about the same thing
00:41:58see when you write this one
00:42:00it will come here
00:42:02but you have some x y z text comma
00:42:04but and the sentence starts
00:42:06directly okay okay
00:42:08but abc you got the point
00:42:10yeah yeah because now we want your response
00:42:12to be like this not like this
00:42:14we don't want any capital letters
00:42:16for the connectives used in the sentence because
00:42:18it will make a separate sentence which means
00:42:20it will not be taken into consideration
00:42:22your summarizing should be in one sentence
00:42:24only if you put a full stop
00:42:26that's the end of the story okay
00:42:28okay
00:42:30all right
00:42:32okay friends
00:42:34so i'll pull out a prediction file
00:42:36yeah however the bigger nanoplastics were
00:42:38still found in the bodies even after
00:42:40several weeks so
00:42:42joshika
00:42:44um yeah
00:42:46this is also a good response but try to
00:42:48include it friends whenever you start something
00:42:50make sure that you conclude it
00:42:52okay so let me pull out one from your prediction file
00:42:56so i will take a snapshot
00:42:58so i will take a snapshot
00:43:00So I'll take the snapshot.
00:43:25This time I want everyone to write and post it on the chat box.
00:43:30The time you have is only 10 minutes.
00:43:33So now the time is 812, 822, the response should reach me.
00:43:42I'll try to put two templates for you.
00:43:48You can use whichever you want.
00:44:01So I can't see any slides.
00:44:12Yeah.
00:44:13Just a moment.
00:44:14I'm just organizing the screen.
00:44:15Give me a moment.
00:44:17I'm trying to put all the templates for you.
00:44:33So the time starts now, 813, 823, everyone should submit before 823.
00:44:44You have 10 minutes time.
00:44:47Skim read, deep read, make notes, make a raw sentence and then do the final edits and submit it.
00:45:01So can you make this screen a little bit bigger?
00:45:22Just give me a moment.
00:45:35Okay.
00:45:36So.
00:45:37Okay.
00:45:38Okay.
00:45:39Okay.
00:46:10All right, everyone.
00:46:12Hope this size is okay now.
00:46:14Yes, sir.
00:52:45Since in the actual exam you will still have the transcript in front of your eyes.
00:53:11Okay, Ravindran. It is actually the text, not the test. The first one is text and next one is test. Ravindran, please watch the spelling.
00:53:24So, Ravindran, you can unmute yourself.
00:53:27Yeah. The text provides information about marshmallow test which suggests that kids on average wait for five or six minutes before eating it and a second one.
00:53:35But both groups were given and the marshmallow test study shows that.
00:53:38So, here what happens, you're seeing my screen now. Oh, sorry, sorry, sorry. I forgot.
00:53:47Are you able to see my screen? Everyone? Yeah.
00:53:51So, but both groups were given the marshmallow test. Study shows that ability to resist temptation is not strictly innate.
00:54:00So, what you can do here, you can add one more connective, Ravindran. You can say however or something here or furthermore.
00:54:12Okay, because, yeah, this sounds like a new sentence altogether.
00:54:16But both the groups were given the marshmallow test. Study shows that, the ability, yeah.
00:54:20So, the undertone behind it shows that it is a new sentence.
00:54:27Okay.
00:54:27But rest of it is excellent.
00:54:30So, your response is a valid one.
00:54:32Let's make this little correction.
00:54:33Make sure that you have enough connectives used in the sentence.
00:54:36Okay.
00:54:37This was a very good one.
00:54:38So, like, however, after this will come out, however, study shows that ability to resist temptation is not strictly innate,
00:54:54and researchers know that experience factors into a child's ability to delay gratification.
00:55:00Okay.
00:55:00All right.
00:55:04Now, I think, Lalita, the text provides information about how marshmallows just can play a crucial role.
00:55:10And a 4-6-year-old child sits alone in a table facing marshmallow.
00:55:16It suggests that kids on average wait for 5-6 minutes before.
00:55:20And the record shows 5-year-old kids can use.
00:55:24We want to stick it to the ability to do what you have.
00:55:26People experience factors into a child's ability to delay gratification.
00:55:29Perfect.
00:55:30Yeah.
00:55:30Lalita, this was a decent attempt.
00:55:32Once again, it's a good effort.
00:55:34Yes, your first sentence has a small issue.
00:55:36First part of the sentence.
00:55:38See, the text provides information about how marshmallow tests can play a crucial role.
00:55:42In 4-6-year-old child sits alone in a table facing marshmallow.
00:55:47You have to say who sits alone.
00:55:49Okay, Lalita.
00:55:52Yes, sir.
00:55:53Yeah.
00:55:54Because, see, connectives are important.
00:55:57Your grammar, punctuation, everything is important.
00:56:00But still, you can score decently with this response.
00:56:03And they're trying to make it even more better.
00:56:06Okay.
00:56:07These cosmetic changes that I'm suggesting will make your response even more better.
00:56:11But that was a very good effort.
00:56:12Excellent.
00:56:13Next.
00:56:14Thanks.
00:56:15Yeah.
00:56:17Prasangi.
00:56:19The text provides information about the marshmallow test, which indicates that the ability to resist temptation and the child's ability to delay gratification are crucial elements.
00:56:27Moreover, the distinctive aspects of higher general competency later in life for the environment and influence, as well as kids' average wait time.
00:56:34However, the importance of keeping promises and how it related, how it is related to child's waiting time could not be over-reported.
00:56:42How it is.
00:56:43That's the only mistake you did, Rasangi.
00:56:48Okay.
00:56:48Okay.
00:56:48How it is related to child's waiting time could not be over-reported.
00:56:54Very good.
00:56:54This is, you made the best possible use of the template given.
00:56:58And this will fetch you a decent score.
00:57:01Very good.
00:57:02Yes, Balakrishna.
00:57:04Okay.
00:57:04Balakrishna looks like left.
00:57:12So, if you're able to make your own response, that is also welcome.
00:57:15But the reason why we ask you to use a template is to make it a legible one.
00:57:24Yeah.
00:57:28See, all of you have to start practicing typing.
00:57:54Okay.
00:57:55So, you should not use your notepad and pen.
00:58:00Start typing.
00:58:02Next, provides information on Marshmallows test.
00:58:06Aha.
00:58:07Lila, again, you put the full stop.
00:58:10Yeah, I think the Marshmallow also is wrong, like capital, yeah.
00:58:13Because my computer has some problem in editing, like the cursor is not working.
00:58:19Okay.
00:58:19Okay.
00:58:20See, you used many full stops.
00:58:21Is that only because of the keyboard problem?
00:58:25See, temptation has a full stop.
00:58:27Life has a full stop.
00:58:29Right.
00:58:29Again, minutes has a full stop.
00:58:31We want only one sentence.
00:58:33That's my mistake.
00:58:34Yeah.
00:58:34Yeah, that's okay.
00:58:35So, please use commas and connectives.
00:58:38See, for example, the text provides the information on Marshmallows test, which is used to test child's ability.
00:58:43You use a connective.
00:58:45Okay.
00:58:45Okay.
00:58:46Okay.
00:58:46If you want, you can edit it and send it again.
00:58:49In the meantime, I'll check someone else's response.
00:58:53Okay, Joshika.
00:58:55The text provides information about Marshmallow test and the six-years-old child sitting alone and waiting for five or six minutes before eating the marshmallow.
00:59:02However, the study shows the ability to resist temptation isn't strictly innate and both the groups, we say.
00:59:10Joshika, it is not the both group.
00:59:11It is both the groups.
00:59:13They should be here.
00:59:14Both the groups were given the Marshmallow test.
00:59:17Aha.
00:59:18You put a full stop again.
00:59:20Joshika, watch out.
00:59:23No full stops, please.
00:59:25Yes.
00:59:25Mistakely.
00:59:26Yeah.
00:59:26Yeah.
00:59:27Not even by mistake because in the exam, if you put a full stop, that's the end of your sentence.
00:59:32Yeah.
00:59:33Okay, because it is a one-sentence summary.
00:59:35So, the next part will be considered as a second sentence.
00:59:38Yeah.
00:59:39Okay.
00:59:39But your response, the construction of your response is a valid one, which is good.
00:59:43Just make sure of the right punctuation mark.
00:59:46Okay?
00:59:47Yes, sir.
00:59:48All right.
00:59:52Okay, everyone.
00:59:53So, let me summarize the class for the day.
01:00:01So, in summary, what we have learned, skim read, detect, deep read, and note keywords.
01:00:11Use the keywords and phrases to form a sentence.
01:00:13Edit and refine.
01:00:15Write between 30 to 45 words.
01:00:16So, at least we recommend 45 words response.
01:00:19But if you are able to make up to 60, 70, it's fine.
01:00:22But don't exceed 75.
01:00:24Okay?
01:00:24When we ask questions, can I merge two sentences using comma?
01:00:29Don't just try to merge two sentences using comma.
01:00:31Make sure you use proper conjunction words like though, however, moreover, etc.
01:00:37Do we need to write close to 75 words?
01:00:39We recommend you to write only 30 to 45 because it will be enough for you to score the required points.
01:00:51The information in the text seems wrong.
01:00:53Can I use my knowledge?
01:00:54Absolutely not.
01:00:55Whether it is wrong or right, click to it.
01:00:58Okay?
01:00:59All right.
01:00:59That's all for the day.
01:01:01Thank you, everyone.
01:01:02See you all in the next session.
01:01:04Thank you, sir.
01:01:05Bye-bye.
01:01:05Bye.
01:01:06Bye.
01:01:06Bye.
01:01:06Bye.
01:01:06Bye.
01:01:06Bye.
01:01:06Bye.
01:01:06Bye.
