03 Reading Exercise 3 (Note-Taking)

Exercise 3 is a reading comprehension task that requires students to make notes under provided headings on a short passage. Students should first read the headings to understand what information is needed, then read the passage while underlining relevant points to write under each heading. Notes do not need full sentences and can copy text directly, with no marks deducted for errors. Only one point should be written per line given, even if more points are available in the passage. Proper time management is important, with 10 minutes for Paper 1 and 12 minutes for Paper 2.

Reading: Exercise 3 (Note-taking)

Exercise 3 of Paper 1 is a reading task, where a short passage is given and you
are asked to make notes on it under the headings given. This is again, an easy
enough task but you need to be careful to ensure that you’re writing the correct
points.

Let’s dive straight into it.

 Read the headings


First, reading the headings given in the question will be the best course of
action. It will tell you what information you need to find from the passage and
copy into your answer.
I
have colour-coded the headings with their corresponding points from the
passage below
 Read the passage.
As you go underline the points that you can write down under each heading.
Answers could be found anywhere, but usually goes in a chronological order.

 Write down the points under each heading.



 You don’t have to write in full sentences

 You can copy the text as it is from the passage

 No marks will be deducted for spelling/punctuation/grammar errors

 You should only write one point per line given. Thus, all points that you
could write do not have to be written. In the example above, for heading
one I have marked three points, but there are only two line, so write any of
the two.

That’s about. It’s again, like the previous question, an information transfer. You
just need to know what the relevant information is and where you should put it.

Time management
For the core paper 1, spend about 10 minutes on this question.
For the extended paper 2, spend 12 minutes on this question.
