Hi there.
In this lecture, I'm going to be showing you how to apply the strategy for a classification question.
The strategy for the classification question is pretty much the exact same strategy as a matching question.
The classification question doesn't really appear on the academic exam that much anymore.
Really rarely ever.
They might bring it back, but on the general exam it does still have a tendency to appear.
So you're going to find this lecture right under the matching strategy application, because really
it applies the exact same strategy.
There's no difference in the strategy.
All right.
So this is coming from book number eight, test number one.
And just to tell you about really, they don't ask this question a lot.
I looked in book 14, 13, 12, 11, ten, nine.
I had to go all the way to book number eight before I found a classification question.
So that should tell you how they really, really don't focus on it so much.
But I still wanted to make this lecture so that if for any reason it appears on your exam, you have
some you have some foundation for for how to do it.
And for those of you who are doing the academic exam, you can also look at this lecture, even though
it's using a general reading passage, which is which is more simple than, of course, the reading,
but then of course, the academic exam.
But we're just looking at it for you guys in terms of strategy and how to do the question, but you
would then apply that to a more difficult type of passage.
All right.
So let's go ahead and get started.
So this is what a classification question really looks like.
And we have a lot of questions here, right, seven through 14.
So when it comes to we have to look at the four categories.
Right.
And we either are going to have or you're looking at these each each of these answer choices, each
of these answers, each answer choice seven through 14.
They're going to fit either into Category A, B, C or D.
So number seven, it could fall under it could fit into the category of A, B, C or D.
So really, like I said, it's like a reverse matching question, right?
It's like an inverted matching question.
It's the exact same principles almost.
All right.
So here we see the four categories covered by government agents, covered multi plan, not covered multi
plan, and covered with some situations.
So really what I'm going through there, I'm just looking at the content words.
And so then with the classification question, this is the general exam.
So there's a chance that these questions are going to go in order.
If this question appeared, if it appeared on the academic exam, most likely it would not go in order.
But here we're dealing with the general exam, so we're going to make a make an educated guess that
it will go in order.
Right.
So let's start with number seven.
So we're dealing with a student traveling overseas.
He suddenly needs hospital.
Hospital treatment, right.
Suddenly suddenly needs hospital treatment.
He certainly needs what happens.
Number eight, what category does it fit into if he consults a doctor with a minor problem?
What happens in terms of a parent coming overseas?
Is that what does what category does that fall under?
Right.
Bring injured a six student?
And if a student is treated right, treat it for illness before leaving Australia.
Right.
So those are our keywords and we have one more regarding medical treatment.
If you require medical treatment and you lost the insurance card, now number 12, it looks like number
12 is dealing with something that's lost.
13 is dealing with something that's lost, and 14 is dealing with changing your mind on a flight.
And if you go back and look at the reading passage, we have three categories medical issues.
So those first questions are going to be found in here.
Right?
Right.
Where it says medical, the questions that are about something being lost will fall under belongings.
And the question question, the one question that deals with canceling something.
Well, of course, following to cancel cancel cancellation.
Cancellation.
All right.
So let's go ahead and look at it.
So a student traveling overseas suddenly needs treatment.
So suddenly.
Emergencies.
Emergency hospital treatment.
All right.
You can go back and look at the Sydney Travel College.
So the whole thing is about university students or students.
So some of you may be asking, why didn't you look for the word students?
The title tells us that it's about college students at this college we recommend at this college.
Right.
So everything is about all the information applies to students or student relatives.
So that's why I'm not looking for the word student.
All right.
So also recognize the word this the set that starts with the word this.
That means what?
Everybody I'm going to read the previous sentence.
Australia has reciprocal medical arrangements with governments of eight nations.
This arrangement, this refers to what its arrangements with governments that will cover all emergency
hospital treatment.
That means that what the correct answer for choice a correct answer for number seven is a.
Right.
The answer is, A, because it's covered by governmental arrangements.
Number eight, a student consults a doctor regarding a minor problem.
Right.
What happens is he cover it.
Does the government cover it?
Does does it fall into the multi plan category?
Is it not covered by multi plan or is it covered only in some situations?
If he consults a doctor for a minor problem.
They'll have to take out insurance such as multi plan to cover all all other non emergency medical situations.
So as all other non emergency medical situations he needs to have what multi plan.
He needs to have multi plan for non emergency situations.
So a minor problem is synonym for non emergency situation.
That means the correct answer for number eight is going to be B.
Category B, category A, category C, category D.
Now, let's go ahead and read about parents.
A parent goes overseas to bring an injured or six student.
Which category does it fall in on?
All right, so there's our language right here.
Family member.
Family member falls under parent, and they expect you to be able to find that.
So we also have a reference pronoun here.
This may also.
So because of that, I'm going to read the previous sentence.
If you have a serious accident or illness, multi plant insurance will cover the cost of your flight
back to Australia if required, depending on the circumstances.
Depending on the circumstances.
This may also pay for either medical personnel or a family member to accompany you.
So we know this answer is going to be what?
Some situations.
Because it is depending on the circumstances.
All right.
Number ten, a student is treated overseas for an illness he or she had before leaving Australia.
Before leaving Australia.
Multi plan may not cover all pre-existing right so multi plan may not cover all pre-existing medical
conditions.
Pre-existing medical medical conditions is an illness you have before it may not apply.
So that means that answer is also DH And here in this situation we know you can use an answer more than
once.
Because there are only four categories and there are three, six eight questions.
OC Next one number 11 a student who requires medical treatment and has lost his card.
And we can see that language right here.
Well, they're talking about the insurance card.
If you do require medical treatment overseas and you want to make a claim on your insurance, the claim
will not be accepted unless you produce your student card and insurance card.
Right.
So if you lose it, if you lose it, your claim will not be accepted if you lose it.
So the correct answer for number 11 is going to be see.
So now we move down to our next category.
Books and laptops.
It's going to be in their belongings.
There is books.
There's portable computer for laptop.
So it says, for example, this insurance covers replacement value of your briefcase or backpack and
study books.
So the Multi Plan policy does covers books for laptops.
It says, what if you specifically list them?
If you specifically list them.
So we know those two answers already.
Number 12 is going to be B, as in boy.
And number 13 is going to be DD because it said if you specifically list them, if you specifically
list them.
For example, this insurance covers replacement value for your books, portable computers, if you specifically
list them.
So that answer is that's for B, that's for D, and now for cancellation.
Cancellation.
This insurance covers any non-refundable deposit and other costs you you have paid.
If you have to cancel due to unforeseen or unforeseeable circumstances, it does not provide if you
change your study or travel plans.
If so, if you change your mind, you don't get coverage.
That's what it says.
If you change your mind, you don't get coverage.
That means our correct answer for number 14 is going to be C.
Right.
So really we're just matching.
We're matching category to question.
That's what we're doing here.
We're looking at the keyword language and we have to decide which category does it match.
Which category can it be classified under?
Where do we see a classification match?
All right.
So thank you very, very much for joining me.
I hope that you were able to learn a lot.
And if you have any questions about the classification question, please be sure to ask.
I'll be more than happy to provide more information.
Take care.
Have a great day.
