Just now, I said that official website has a video explanation of the real questions by the professional Grade 8 exam marking teacher. If you have doubts in the process of doing the real problem, you can go and have a look. It is helpful to talk about how to surpass the level. There are also many good things in the forum's "New Fourth Army Training Camp Assembly Number" that can be downloaded for free, especially including a skill post on how to take notes, which must meet your requirements. Let's talk about mini-lectures.
This is an examination project that combines listening and notes to fill in the blanks. This project is a lecture of about 900 words. Candidates take notes while listening, and then complete the fill-in-the-blank exercise. Taking notes in class is an indispensable part of students' study and life. This kind of question is to test students' ability to take notes according to listening materials and arrange notes to complete their homework. The project is actually divided into steps such as understanding, finding out the main points, taking notes and filling in the blanks. It is worth noting that the words or phrases that candidates fill in the blanks in the exam are all content words related to the lecture content, not grammatical function words, because the purpose of this project is to test candidates' understanding of the lecture content. Students can choose to listen to some recorded materials that discuss a certain problem and have a certain depth in their usual training, take notes on important plots while listening, and then write a summary according to the notes. If you can do this successfully, you don't need to worry about this item in the exam, because the written materials used to fill in the blanks in the exam are also based on the summaries of listening recordings.
Fill in the blanks with notes is a complicated listening test with its own characteristics. Mastering these characteristics is of great benefit to candidates. This part of the recording is usually a very logical chapter, which demonstrates or narrates a problem from several aspects. Because the words or phrases that candidates need to fill in the blanks are real words based on the main points of the whole question and its important details, candidates should focus on these contents rather than red tape when taking notes. For example, there are three or four examples about a problem in the recording, such as KFC, McDonald's and Pizza Hut. Candidates can remember at most one or two. In addition, the words or phrases used to fill in the blanks are not necessarily words or phrases that have appeared in the recording, but any words or phrases that are semantically consistent with the original text and grammatically suitable for filling in the blanks can be used. Candidates must pay attention to the accuracy of the part of speech when filling in the blanks. We found that some candidates can find the corresponding words or phrases, but they don't pay much attention to the part of speech, because verbs must be filled where verbs are filled, if reinforcement can't be used instead of reinforcement. In addition, if the word is at the beginning of the sentence, the first letter of the word should be capitalized.
There is still enough time before next year's exam. Keep confidence and patience, keep training, and you will be able to handle this kind of problem. Wish you success!
