44. 1:18further delay, let's straight away get
45. 1:20right into the PTE summarize spoken
46. 1:21text. How to handle shorter audios. Here
47. 1:24we start. When we talk about PTE
48. 1:26summarize spoken text, remember this
49. 1:27module comes in the listening section.
50. 1:29It is there for both PTE Academic and
51. 1:31PTE Core with a small difference. Let's
52. 1:33understand the task. They'll play an
53. 1:35audio. They would have given you a
54. 1:36booklet and a pen or you have the
55. 1:38privilege of directly taking short notes
56. 1:40by typing into the computer. Either of
57. 1:41these options is totally fine. Once they
58. 1:43play an audio, you can take down some
59. 1:45notes and once the audio ends, inclusive
60. 1:47of the audio, you will have 10 minutes
61. 1:49to submit the response. For PTE
62. 1:50Academic, you got to write between 50 to
63. 1:5270 words. PTE Core is only between 20 to
64. 1:5530 words. Should I rely on a template?
65. 1:58If I'm relying on a template, what
66. 1:59template gives me a better score? Let's
67. 2:01understand that in detail. How long the
68. 2:03audio usually last for? Usually 40 45 to
69. 2:0650 seconds. But what if it turns out to
70. 2:08be just 30 seconds? Let's understand
71. 2:10very shortly how to deal with it. How
72. 2:12many sentences should I write in my
73. 2:13summarized spoken text so that I get
74. 2:15better scores? We'll shortly understand
75. 2:17each and every of your doubts with
76. 2:19respect to our summarized spoken text.
77. 2:20I'm going to give you two demos. One
78. 2:22audio with just 30 28 to 30 seconds and
79. 2:26we will see how I will you know, type
80. 2:27the answers, how I respond to the
81. 2:29answers by my fast note-taking skill.
82. 2:32Then again, the second audio will be
83. 2:34around 40 to 42 seconds. So I'll do the
84. 2:36demonstration through our portal skills
85. 2:37pte.macquarie.com live demonstration for
86. 2:39both the questions. Make sure you watch
87. 2:41the video till the end to make most from
88. 2:43the video. Before we delve into the
89. 2:45demonstration, let's understand how
90. 2:47you're evaluated with respect to
91. 2:48summarized spoken text. For PTE
92. 2:49Academic, grammar will be for two marks,
93. 2:52form will be for two marks, vocabulary
94. 2:54two marks, spelling two marks, and
95. 2:55content four marks. That makes it 12
96. 2:58marks. But for PTE Core, content is two
97. 3:00marks, which makes it approximately 10
98. 3:02marks. Doesn't matter PTE Core or PTE
99. 3:04Academic, this module is very very
100. 3:06important, contributes a lot of marks
101. 3:08towards your listening and writing. So
102. 3:10whether you're sitting for PTE Core or
103. 3:12PTE Academic, you have to do it
104. 3:13precisely and it's definitely possible.
105. 3:16All right, I've just opened the portal
106. 3:17on the left-hand side. Right-hand side
107. 3:19I've got some space to type. I'm opening
108. 3:21this question called "Sloths". Just
109. 3:23observe how I take down the notes. I
110. 3:25probably would listen for 3 to 4 seconds
111. 3:27and then decide what to write and then I
112. 3:29start typing for the next probably 5 to
113. 3:316 seconds. The audio being very short,
114. 3:33well in advance you would not know if
115. 3:35the audio is going to be a shorter one
116. 3:37or a longer one, but you got to be so
117. 3:40quick. Max of 1 minute, not more than
118. 3:42that. Average is 45 seconds, 50 seconds.
119. 3:45Sometimes 30-second audio will come.
120. 3:47Definitely it will come. It has come for
121. 3:49so many people. Just observe. I will
122. 3:51explain you. I will show you the
123. 3:53demonstration what templates to use, how
124. 3:55to write the exact summary so that we
125. 3:58get better marks for the content.
126. 3:59Content is four. So let's start with
127. 4:01this slots.
128. 4:09>> Sloths may be slow, but they've got a
129. 4:11hidden flex. They can hold their breath
130. 4:13for up to 40 minutes
131. 4:14>> They've got a hidden
132. 4:15>> That's longer than a dolphin, which
133. 4:17usually taps [snorts] out around
134. 4:18>> That's longer than a dolphin.
135. 4:20>> This is thanks to their ability to slow
136. 4:22their heart rate 1/3 of its normal
137. 4:24speed.
138. 4:25>> ability
139. 4:26>> swim often, but when they do, they float
140. 4:28like furry little zen masters.
141. 4:30>> Float like zen masters.
142. 4:31>> while dolphins do flips and tricks,
143. 4:33sloths are just vibing in stealth mode,
144. 4:35taking deep meditative dives like it's
145. 4:37nothing.
146. 4:37>> Taking deep meditative
147. 4:40state like nothing.
148. 4:45Well, I've written very short phrases
149. 4:47because it's just a 30-second audio.
150. 4:49What max can one go?
151. 4:51Correct, this is what I've taken exactly
152. 4:53as it is. Um sloths may be slow, but
153. 4:56they have got a hidden flex.
154. 4:58Sloths may be slow, but they have got a
155. 5:02hidden flex. 11 words. That's longer
156. 5:05than a dolphin. Four words. This is
157. 5:10taking or talking, I'm not sure what
158. 5:13I've written. We will see what to write.
159. 5:15And then when they When do they When
160. 5:17they do, they float like zen masters,
161. 5:20taking deep meditative state like
162. 5:22nothing. These are the whole sentences
163. 5:24that I'm going to write, so let's see
164. 5:25how much of it can I cover by writing
165. 5:28around 50 to 70 words. By the way, I
166. 5:30have taken the demonstration for PT
167. 5:31Academic.
168. 5:32>> [snorts]
169. 5:33>> Sloths
170. 5:36may be slow, but they have
171. 5:40gotten a
172. 5:44hidden flex, first sentence.
173. 5:49That's longer
174. 5:52than what a
175. 5:56We have to fix the grammar a little bit
176. 5:57here and there.
177. 5:59What a dolphin can hold because the
178. 6:01second sentence they told, it can hold
179. 6:04breath for almost some seconds. That's
180. 6:06longer than what a dolphin can hold.
181. 6:09This is
182. 6:12talking about
183. 6:15their
184. 6:17ability.
185. 6:21And when they do,
186. 6:24they
187. 6:25float like
188. 6:28Zen masters
189. 6:30taking deep
190. 6:33meditative state like
191. 6:37nothing. 40 words I've written. We're
192. 6:40almost out of this 40, probably 37 to 38
193. 6:43words, or 35 to 36 words are exactly
194. 6:45present in the audio. Content most
195. 6:47probably I should be getting full
196. 6:48scores. Though I've missed few words,
197. 6:50it's okay. Few keywords, it's okay.
198. 6:52Everything you cannot take.
199. 6:54But I've tried my best to take whatever
200. 6:56the best that I can. The strategy that I
201. 6:58followed was listen to the audio for 3
202. 7:01to 4 seconds and then start typing. When
203. 7:03I was typing, I was not listening. I
204. 7:04finished typing, then I again open my
205. 7:06ears. I listen to the audio. I did it so
206. 7:08fast because the audio lasted only for
207. 7:1030 seconds. So four small phrases that
208. 7:12I've taken. 40 words, this will give me
209. 7:14zero. I'll have to add a template.
210. 7:16Template now template's come into
211. 7:18picture. Template's job is to just help
212. 7:21you cross 50 words. They don't
213. 7:23contribute to your content scores.
214. 7:26Always remember this. I think I used
215. 7:28this template, so I got 90. Whether you
216. 7:30use it or not, you would have anyhow got
217. 7:32a 90 because of your skill set. It's not
218. 7:34the template. Let's not spread wrong
219. 7:36information. All right. So the
220. 7:40talk was about
221. 7:42sloths.
222. 7:44Firstly,
223. 7:50firstly F has to be capitalized.
224. 7:56The speaker said that
225. 7:59the sloths may be slow,
226. 8:03but they've got an hidden flex. I think
227. 8:0551 words. Now don't think if I write 65
228. 8:08words by adding more of template, I'll
229. 8:09get more marks. You won't get more
230. 8:11marks. Templates
231. 8:13idea is just to aid you to cross 50
232. 8:17words and I crossed it. After this,
233. 8:18whether you use template or not, it is
234. 8:21secondary. It's not going to make much
235. 8:22difference towards your scores. Remember
236. 8:24this.
237. 8:25Uh that's longer than what a dolphin can
238. 8:27hold. This is talking about their
239. 8:29ability and when they do, they float
240. 8:31like Zen masters taking deep meditative
241. 8:33state like nothing. And um I think
242. 8:37that's it. Let's submit it and see how
243. 8:39much marks do I get. It will
244. 8:40approximately take 6 to 8 seconds. We're
245. 8:42running a lot of things in the
246. 8:44background. Well, I've got 11.7 out of
247. 8:4712. Uh it says meditative state taking a
248. 8:50deep or
249. 8:51deep taking deep meditative states like
250. 8:54nothing. Apart from that, I don't see
251. 8:55any of the issues. Vocabulary, it's
252. 8:57fine. Uh content, it's four out of four,
253. 9:00exceptional. And grammar, 1.8 because of
254. 9:02one small mistake.
255. 9:03That wouldn't be a problem. So, the idea
256. 9:05is even for smaller audios. Something
257. 9:08like this, you take some small phrases
258. 9:10exactly matching. The more keywords you
259. 9:12match, more marks you get. Well, there
260. 9:14could be different techniques like you
261. 9:16note down some keywords alone, for
262. 9:18instance. Something like this, slow
263. 9:21hidden flex
264. 9:22longer than
265. 9:28dolphin
266. 9:29>> [snorts]
267. 9:30>> Zen masters
268. 9:32meditative state.
269. 9:35Some people write like this. Well, this
270. 9:37works. It's not about whether this works
271. 9:38or not. It's all about when you take
272. 9:42down just keywords like this, you should
273. 9:44be able to
274. 9:46make sentences using this that convey
275. 9:48the same meaning as that of the audio.
276. 9:52Now, people will write slow and hidden
277. 9:54flex are the important features of lion.
278. 9:57Then how the marks will come?
279. 9:59Correct? So, as long as you have a
280. 10:01better hold on the English language,
281. 10:03listening skills are really great. You
282. 10:05listen to the audio, you understand the
283. 10:07story. So, you wrote only keywords. Then
284. 10:09you can cook up a story because the same
285. 10:11story that you listened, you would be
286. 10:13writing. You would not be writing
287. 10:14something else. Using these keywords,
288. 10:16you get the marks.
289. 10:17But, if you are someone who's not good
290. 10:19at listening skills and took down the
291. 10:21notes something like this and you try to
292. 10:23write on your own, you completely change
293. 10:25the meaning from that of the audio.
294. 10:27Then, the marks will go down. Whatever
295. 10:29the strategy that I showed, 100% works
296. 10:32if you get that. It's not that easy. You
297. 10:33got to type or you got to write down a
298. 10:35bit faster, but with time you going to
299. 10:38get this. All right, I said I'll be
300. 10:40taking up two questions. I'll probably
301. 10:42take up mantis.
302. 10:44So, we'll see how I do this.
303. 10:48Same method. Probably audio will last
304. 10:50for 40 or seconds.
305. 10:52>> The mantis shrimp isn't just a colorful
306. 10:53sea creature.
307. 10:54>> It's a full-blown colorful sea creature.
308. 10:58>> that moves faster than a bullet, it can
309. 11:00punch its prey so fast that it causes
310. 11:02water to boil,
311. 11:03creating a shockwave.
312. 11:04>> Faster than a bullet. I'm not listening.
313. 11:06>> It stuns or kills on contact. This punch
314. 11:09is so powerful, it's been known to crack
315. 11:11aquarium glass.
316. 11:13Scientists study the mantis shrimp's
317. 11:15club-like limbs for ideas on creating
318. 11:17impact-resistant armor and high-speed
319. 11:19robotics. Oh,
320. 11:21and fun fact, it also has the most
321. 11:23complex eyes in the animal kingdom.
322. 11:25>> Fun fact, it has the most complex eyes
323. 11:28in the I'm not listening.
324. 11:31>> Basically, it's a deadly rainbow tank
325. 11:33with fists.
326. 11:34>> It's a deadly
327. 11:37rainbow
328. 11:39tank with
329. 11:42fists.
330. 11:45Mantis shrimp isn't just a colorful sea
331. 11:47creature with a strike that moves faster
332. 11:49than a bullet, second phrase. It stuns
333. 11:51or kills whoever comes in contact and it
334. 11:54can also crack aquarium glass, third
335. 11:55phrase. It is also used in high-speed
336. 11:57robotics and the fun fact, it has the
337. 11:59most complex eyes in the animal kingdom
338. 12:01and it's also a deadly rainbow tank with
339. 12:02fists. It's so many sentences. 100% have
340. 12:05to get content from.
341. 12:07If you also write like this or let's say
342. 12:10you You these two, still you should be
343. 12:12able to get if not for at least three.
344. 12:14But try to write as much as possible
345. 12:16exactly as it is. If you write down
346. 12:17exactly as it is, you don't have to
347. 12:19worry about the grammar.
348. 12:21Grammar gets messed up only when you are
349. 12:25writing on your own. If you're copying
350. 12:26the exact sentences from the audio, you
351. 12:30don't have to worry about the grammar,
352. 12:31isn't it? So let's start with this.
353. 12:34>> [snorts]
354. 12:35>> Mantis shrimp, we'll quickly finish this
355. 12:37off in the next 3 to 4 minutes.
356. 12:40Mantis
357. 12:42shrimp is
358. 12:45isn't just
359. 12:52colorful sea
360. 12:55creature
361. 13:00with a strike that
362. 13:02moves
363. 13:04faster than a bullet.
364. 13:08It
365. 13:10stuns
366. 13:11or kills
367. 13:13whoever
368. 13:14>> [snorts]
369. 13:15>> comes in contact
370. 13:18and
371. 13:20it can also crack
372. 13:23>> [snorts]
373. 13:24>> aquarium
374. 13:25aquarium
375. 13:27glass.
376. 13:29It is used in I'm just adding few words,
377. 13:32otherwise grammatically it would be
378. 13:34wrong. It is used in high speed
379. 13:38robotics.
380. 13:40And the fun fact,
381. 13:43it has the most
382. 13:46complex eyes in the
383. 13:50animal kingdom. 50 words, 53 words.
384. 13:55It's a deadly
385. 13:59rainbow
386. 14:02tank with
387. 14:04fists. 60 words. Well, if you write 70
388. 14:07words, it does not mean that you have to
389. 14:08get content four.
390. 14:10Content is all about how many keywords
391. 14:13or how many of the key content you're
392. 14:14matching,
393. 14:16uh, which is present in the audio.
394. 14:18You may write 70 words, but none of it
395. 14:20is matching, then your marks will go
396. 14:21down.
397. 14:22Like in the previous question, I took
398. 14:25only 51 to 52 words. I got four out of
399. 14:27four for the content. So, come out of
400. 14:28this assumption that if I write more, I
401. 14:30get more marks. It may not be true. You
402. 14:32write apt, you get good scores.
403. 14:34So, now 60 words, no need of a template.
404. 14:37Absolutely not needed. Let's revise and
405. 14:40check any spelling or grammatical
406. 14:42mistakes present. Mantis shrimp is and
407. 14:45just a colorful sea creature with a
408. 14:48strike that moves faster than a bullet.
409. 14:50It stuns or kills whoever comes
410. 14:52>> [snorts]
411. 14:52>> in contact, and it can also crack
412. 14:54aquarium glass. It is used in high-speed
413. 14:55robotics. And the fun fact, it has the
414. 14:58most complex eyes in the animal kingdom.
415. 15:00It's a deadly rainbow tank with fists. I
416. 15:02submitted it. I have to get it. Most
417. 15:04probably I'll get it.
418. 15:08Let's see. It hardly takes 6 to 8
419. 15:09seconds. Grammar has gone. High-speed
420. 15:11probably needs a hyphen over here.
421. 15:13That's the reason.
422. 15:15>> [snorts]
423. 15:15>> And the fun fact is one word probably.
424. 15:17And the fun fact is you can ignore this
425. 15:20because here as well, and the fun fact,
426. 15:22question mark. So, a few things, it's
427. 15:24fine. I mean, every AI is different. We
428. 15:26have tried our best to make our AI come
429. 15:29closer to what, um,
430. 15:31Pearson AI does. Because everyone's AI
431. 15:33is different. We don't have their
432. 15:35software. They don't have our software.
433. 15:37Correct? We have tried our best to get
434. 15:39as close as 95%
435. 15:42and above. And definitely yes, it is
436. 15:44currently similar to,
437. 15:46uh, Pearson AI scoring, at least by 95%
438. 15:50and above that I can guarantee you. 100%
439. 15:52is not possible because we don't know
440. 15:54their code. We don't know what they're
441. 15:55using. It's all about taking exam
442. 15:57multiple times, understanding what
443. 16:00students have gone through based on the
444. 16:02results, based on their performances. We
445. 16:03have built this. A 95% accuracy is an
446. 16:08exceptional one in the standard that we
447. 16:11have in the current market. So, coming
448. 16:13back to this, this is the way you handle
449. 16:15shorter audios, audios that do not last
450. 16:17for even 50 seconds, 30, 35, 40. Even if
451. 16:20you have taken less number of
452. 16:22uh sentences or phrases, it's okay. Add
453. 16:24some template, some random generic
454. 16:26templates. Don't add a lengthy ones. The
455. 16:28talk was about Firstly, the speaker said
456. 16:29Here, the speaker explained. Something
457. 16:31of this you can add just to ensure it
458. 16:33crosses 50 words. So, that form you get
459. 16:36two marks. If you don't even cross 50
460. 16:38words, that form two marks also gone,
461. 16:39guys. Remember this. I think that's all
462. 16:41for today. I really, really hope this
463. 16:44demonstration has helped you understand
464. 16:46more about how to handle the shorter
465. 16:48audio format for your summarize spoken
466. 16:50text, which will in turn help you get
467. 16:52better scores towards your writing and
468. 16:54listening. Found the video useful? Share
