What's up everyone, welcome back to my channel.

Today, I'm finally making a reading video.

I haven't shared with you guys my reading scores because this is mainly a writing channel.

But I did get a lie twice on the reading test.

And in this video, I'm gonna share with you guys exactly how I did that.

Let's look at this passage of the mystery of the Easter Rhineland.

I think the best tip I can give you is to not answer all the questions one by one.

I mean, if you first do heading questions, which would require us to read all these paragraphs, right?

So if you first do heading questions and then move on to do true first not given, I'm pretty sure you will read at least some paragraphs twice.

That means you probably wouldn't be able to finish the whole passage in less than 20 minutes.

So what I would do is to first quickly go through all the question types.

So there are heading questions and there are true false not given questions and there is a summary question.

Since this text is a summary, it's about the whole passage.

That means the answer to question 38 may appear before 37.

So we really need to do all three types of questions

at the same time to avoid reading some parts of the passage twice.

Now let's start answering all these questions.

I wouldn't read all these headings right now because I wouldn't be able to remember them.

What I would do first is to read question 35 first.

There are no permanent residents living on Easter Island.

I think for true false not given questions, it's very important that we identify the keywords

because we need those keywords to help us locate the answer in the passage, right?

So I think permanent residence are the keywords here.

So I'm going to highlight them.

I would also read the question 38 because like I said, this text is a summary.

That means the answer to 38 may appear at the very beginning of the passage.

So we definitely shouldn't wait until the end to answer these three summary questions.

However, I'm not going to read this text very carefully because again, I wouldn't be able to remember it.

I will just read it very quickly

and try to identify some important words to help me locate the answer in the passage.

Easter Island is famous for the seemingly unexplained disappearance of its inhabitants and its infamous giant statues, the moai.

These statues are generally found on the island's plateaus, but some statues located in other parts of the island are.

Although the voiceover is at a normal pace, in reality, in an actual exam, I would read this part very quickly.

I think it's pretty obvious that 38 is about statues because the subject of this sentence is statues.

Now, I'm going to start reading the first paragraph.

I have three goals in mind.

I need to get a general idea what this paragraph is about so that I can choose a heading for it.

I also need to see if there is any information about permanent residence.

I also need to see if it mentions statues.

So I'm going to read it very quickly until I see information about permanent residence or statues, okay?

Easter Island, a small, hilly, treeless volcano, is one of the world's most celebrated archaeological sites.

However, it is rarely visited and not inhabited.

I think this may be the answer to question 35 because I know inhabit means something like people living in a place.

So basically this sentence says there are no people living on the island.

But I'm not sure about permanent.

This sentence says nothing about permanent.

So I think 35 is either true or not given.

I'm not sure.

So I'm going to highlight this and I will come back for 35 later.

Maybe I will get some information about permanent as I read the passage.

After I finish 35, I would immediately read question 36 because it may appear right after 35 in the passage.

So after arriving on Easter Island, I don't know this word,

but I think it means something like people because it has the same ending as agents.

So these people planted lots of trees there.

This word is definitely a key word.

I will highlight this to help me locate the answer in the passage.

I think trees is also an important word.

So when I read the rest of the paragraph, I will try to see if it mentions these people.

I will also try to find out if it mentions statues.

The island was named Easter Island by Jacob Roggeveen, a Dutch captain, who visited the island on the 5th of April 1722

and was the first European to set foot on the island.

Following the mystery of its inhabitants, a Norwegian explorer called Thor Heyerdahl visited the island in the early 1950s.

Heyerdahl suggested that the original inhabitants of the island were Indian societies that had originated from the southern coast of America.

However, after a broad ethnographic, linguistic, and archaeological research, this theory was found to be inaccurate.

Okay, the rest of the paragraph doesn't mention these people.

It doesn't mention statues either.

However, I noticed something about permanent.

So here it says following the mystery of its inhabitants.

And here it's all about the mystery.

So now I'm pretty sure the answer is true because if the island had a permanent inhabitant, there would be no mystery.

So when I'm not sure about the question, I wouldn't waste time trying to figure out the exact answer.

I will just move on, since it may become more clear as we read the passage.

This is how I found the answer to question 35.

Now, we've finished reading paragraph A.

We need to choose a heading for it.

So when I'm dealing with headings, what I mainly do is to try to rule out those absolutely incorrect headings,

which helps me to narrow down to the few possible ones.

For example, mapping the universe to understand the past.

I don't know what mapping the universe means, but I think this is the wrong heading, because paragraph A says nothing about the universe.

Indication of an ancient research site.

I think this paragraph doesn't mention anything about research either.

Decline the population due to the lack of food.

I don't think it mentions the decline in the population.

Cultural significance of statues.

No, it doesn't mention statues at all.

A mystery that attracted the early explorers.

Yes, this paragraph does mention some explorers like Jacob and this guy.

And this paragraph is also about a mystery.

It's about the mystery of its inhabitants, right?

We know this because we have already answered the question 35.

So answering 35 actually help us to choose the correct heading for the first paragraph.

That's another reason why we shouldn't do all the questions one by one.

So now I'm pretty sure this is the correct heading for paragraph A.

In the lecture exam, I would quickly go through the remaining headings just to make sure what I have just chosen is the correct heading.

But I'm not going to read them in the video.

Now let's move on to paragraph B.

So when reading this paragraph, I will try to find if it mentions these people.

And I will also try to find out if it mentions statues

and we also need to get a general idea of what this paragraph is about

100

because we need to choose a heading for it always always have a goal in mind

101

when you are reading a paragraph always know what kind of

102

information you are looking for never never read a paragraph without any purpose

103

so i will quickly read it until i see the information i'm looking for

104

according to research

105

and dna extracts from the exhumed skeletons on the island the

106

original inhabitants of the island were from the Marquesas Islands in Polynesia.

107

As I quickly go through this paragraph, I soon noticed this word which signals the text is about these guys, right?

108

So now I need to start reading the text very carefully.

109

According to the carbon dating of reeds collected from the graves, these people arrived on the island in 318 AD.

110

It is believed that at that time the island had lots of trees.

111

Okay, here it mentions trees the island had lots of trees

112

but so far it's unclear who planted those trees let me continue to read to see

113

if it mentions who planted those trees or not it is believed

114

that at that time the island had lots of trees swarming with both land

115

and seabirds and there were abundant food sources from fish plants

116

and birds that made the human population grow rapidly giving rise to a rich artistic and and religious culture.

117

All right, after reading the rest of the paragraph, now I'm pretty sure it doesn't say whether these people planted trees there or not.

118

So I'm gonna choose not given.

119

And this paragraph doesn't mention statues.

120

So no information about 38.

121

Now let's choose a heading for this paragraph.

122

Again, I'm going to rule out those impossible headings to narrow down to a few possible ones.

123

So paragraph B says nothing about the universe.

124

This paragraph also doesn't mention research.

125

It doesn't mention the decline in population.

126

It says nothing about statues, right?

127

We haven't found any information about statues.

128

A loss of a habitat.

129

I don't think so.

130

The stone made giants.

131

Doesn't seem like a correct heading.

132

Trapped on an island.

133

No, modern assumptions about a coincidence.

134

So I'm actually not very sure about those headings but this one says the early days of the island's thriving environment.

135

This seems like the correct heading.

136

Let me quickly go through this paragraph just to make sure.

137

So this paragraph says the island had lots of trees.

138

It had both land and sea birds.

139

And there were abundant food resources.

140

And the human population grew rapidly.

141

So now I'm pretty sure this is the correct heading for paragraph B.

142

But of course, in an actual exam, I would read this last heading very quickly just to make sure it doesn't make any sense for paragraph B.

143

Now, let's move on to paragraph C.

144

But before reading this paragraph, I would first read question 37 so that I know what kind of information I will be looking for.

145

The writer largely agrees with the conclusion drawn by Jade Diamond.

146

So the name Jade Diamond is definitely very important and it can help us locate the answer in the passage.

147

So when reading paragraph C, I will try to see if it mentions the guy, jade, diamond, and I will also try to see if it mentions statues,

148

and I will also try to get a general idea of what this paragraph is about

149

so that I can choose a heading for it.

150

Among some of the most famous features of the culture of the inhabitants are the moai, which are gigantic stone statues.

151

So as I quickly go through this paragraph, I soon noticed the word statues, which means the answer to question 38 may just be here.

152

So now I need to read the 38 very carefully.

153

I only read it very carefully right now because if I read it carefully earlier than necessary, I wouldn't be able to remember it.

154

So it says these statues are generally found on the island's plateaus.

155

plateau seems like an unusual word.

156

Perhaps this can help me locate the answer.

157

And I'm telling you, the few words around the blank are

158

so important because essentially they are just a paraphrase of the original text, right?

159

These few words are very important, but some statues located in other parts of the island are.

160

We need to find the paraphrase of these few words in the passage.

161

And the grammar tells us that we need an adjective or a noun or a combination of an adjective and a noun.

162

Now I will start to read the paragraph very carefully and as I read it I soon noticed the word plateaus.

163

Plateaus here.

164

Plateaus.

165

Here it also mentions plateaus.

166

In addition to the statues that sit on the plateaus, there are other unfinished statues that spread across the island.

167

I think the answer may be just here

168

because I think spread across the island is a paraphrase of located in other parts of the island.

169

But I'm not so sure.

170

So I will quickly go through the next few sentences.

171

Some of them are found in, I don't know this word, it doesn't matter.

172

And others along Asian roads and the coastal areas.

173

Now I'm pretty sure spread across the island means the same as other parts of the island

174

because here it says ancient roads coastal areas these are parts of the island other than plateaus right

175

so what makes sense i think unfinished makes sense

176

because it's an adjective let's see

177

if unfinished works some statues located in other parts of the

178

island are unfinished yes i think this is the correct answer now i've finished 38 i will immediately read 39

179

because again 39 may appear right after 38 in the passage

180

the giant statues were formed out of a kind of

181

so we are looking for a noun or a noun phrase here

182

and again the few words around the blank are very very

183

important formed out of a kind of we need to find

184

a paraphrase of these few words in the passage also we need to see

185

if the rest of the paragraph mentions this guy jade diamond or not.

186

Let's start from here.

187

On average, the moai statues are 14.5 feet tall with a weight of 14 tones, and they are mostly carved from ronororaku,

188

a type of volcanic stone which is tough.

189

I think carved from a type of volcanic stone may be a paraphrase of formed out of a kind of.

190

Yes, it's very obvious, right?

191

A kind of, and here is a type of.

192

Isn't that too obvious?

193

So I think volcanic stone is the answer let's see

194

if it makes sense the giant statues were formed out of

195

a kind of volcanic stone yeah it makes perfect sense now

196

let's read question 40 again the few words around the blank are very very important current theories suggest

197

that they served as a water function

198

so we need to look for information about the function of the statues

199

and don't forget about this guy jay diamond there are other larger moai statues

200

that weigh 80 tones with a height of about 33 feet

201

going by the enormous size of these statues it is assumed

202

that it took about 50 to 150 people to move them across the island on rollers

203

and sleds made from trees

204

so the rest of the paragraph doesn't mention the function of the statues it doesn't mention jay diamond either

205

so now the only thing i need to do is to

206

choose a heading for this paragraph i think doing these two

207

questions actually help us better understand this paragraph it's very obvious

208

that this paragraph is about statues right i think there are

209

only two headings about their truths one is this one the

210

cultural significance of statues the paragraph doesn't mention the cultural significance we know this

211

because we haven't found any information about about the function of

212

the statues we haven't found the answer to question 40

213

so this is the wrong heading now the only heading

214

that mentions statues is this one the stone made giants the

215

statues are actually very big you see there are some numbers about the statues in the in the paragraph

216

so i think this is the correct heading for paragraph c.

217

Now paragraph d, I'm not going to do the remaining questions in this video because it would be too boring.

218

However, the method is exactly the same.

219

We read the paragraph with the goal in mind.

220

We need to see if it mentions the function of the statues.

221

We also need to see if it mentions jade diamond.

222

And of course, we need to choose a heading for it.

223

So this paragraph doesn't mention j the diamond however it does contain the answer to question 40

224

so i will just copy and paste it here

225

and then we just need to choose a heading for this

226

paragraph it wouldn't be very difficult to choose a heading for it

227

because as you can see there are not so many headings left

228

and for paragraph e a f g

229

and h we only need to read it very quickly for

230

the purpose of choosing headings for them we only need to stop

231

and read carefully when we see j the diamond

232

so yeah this is exactly how i got a 9 on

233

the reading test i think the key is time management in

234

order to avoid reading some parts of the passage again

235

and again it's best to do some questions at the same

236

time actually using this method i was actually able to finish the easiest passage

237

which is usually the first passage of the reading test in like 15 minutes

238

which left me more time for the most difficult passage

239

so please give this method some practice i think it really works

240

and i'm sure you guys already know for questions like truth was not given

241

and summary questions we need to identify some keywords to help

242

us locate the answers in the passage that's it for this video do you think it's helpful

243

if you like it i will do more reading videos in

244

the future let me know in the comment section below

245

if you'd like more reading videos in the future thank you guys so much for watching i will see you soon

Gölgeleme Tekniği Nedir?

Gölgeleme, başlangıçta profesyonel tercüman eğitimi için geliştirilen ve çok dilli Dr. Alexander Arguelles tarafından popüler hale getirilen, bilim destekli bir dil öğrenme tekniğidir. Yöntem basit ama güçlüdür: ana dili İngilizce olan bir sesi dinler ve hemen yüksek sesle tekrar edersiniz — konuşmacıyı 1-2 saniye gecikmeyle takip eden bir gölge gibi. Pasif dinleme veya dilbilgisi alıştırmalarının aksine, gölgeleme beyninizi ve ağız kaslarınızı gerçek konuşma kalıplarını eşzamanlı olarak işlemeye ve yeniden üretmeye zorlar. Araştırmalar, telaffuz doğruluğu, tonlama, ritim, bağlı konuşma, dinleme anlama ve konuşma akıcılığını önemli ölçüde geliştirdiğini göstermektedir — bu da onu IELTS Konuşma hazırlığı ve gerçek dünya İngilizce iletişimi için en etkili yöntemlerden biri yapar.
