Full text of example questions:
(1) In West Africa, jalis have traditionally been keepers of information about family histories and records of important events. They have often served as teachers and advisers, too. New technologies may have changed some aspects of the role today, but jalis continue to be valued for knowing and protecting their peoples’ stories.
Which choice best states the main idea of the text?
(2) In 1934 physicist Eugene Wigner posited the existence of a crystal consisting entirely of electrons in a honeycomb-like structure. The so-called Wigner crystal remained largely conjecture, however, until Feng Wang and colleagues announced in 2021 that they had captured an image of one. The researchers trapped electrons between two semiconductors and then cooled the apparatus, causing the electrons to settle into a crystalline structure. By inserting an ultrathin sheet of graphene above the crystal, the researchers obtained an impression-the first visual confirmation of the Wigner crystal.
Which choice best states the main idea of the text?
knowing that there is a 100% right answer, it made the main idea way easier.
I love your videos. Thank you 🙏.
You're welcome. Thank you for watching.
Should I start answering the writing questions first?
I'm facing time issues with the English section. It takes me less time to finish the writing section and more time to finish the reading questions. Should I start answering the writing questions first? Is it a good strategy to jump at Question 17/18/19 at the very beginning?
Yeah same thought but no answer
It's a good question. I'm working on a video about this, but in short -- yes, start with the questions that you're able to answer more quickly, and then save the most time-consuming ones (like graph questions, strengthen/weaken, and logically completing the text) for last.
A good thing about the Bluebook app is that it lets you bookmark questions and come back to them later. I would definitely recommend that for the R&W modules.
I recommend that you start solving the vocabulary-related questions in the beginning, then you jump to the writing part, and then finally, start finishing the reading section. This technique saves me about 22 minutes for the Reading section
explico porra nenhuma, ta tudo em ingles
No habla espanol. :(
you speak so fast, was hard a little to understand something, but ok
@@sandrodinizzz I'm sorry. I know the feeling, though, because I feel the same way when listening to people speak French (my second language). Sometimes I adjust the playback speed down to 0.75, and that helps. support.google.com/youtube/answer/7509567?hl=es
