00:00:02,720 --> 00:00:03,320
Hi there.

2
00:00:03,320 --> 00:00:09,500
In this lecture, we're going to write these specific detail paragraphs for the table that we were previously

3
00:00:09,500 --> 00:00:12,290
working on in the last lecture.

4
00:00:12,770 --> 00:00:19,190
So when we're talking about these specific comparison paragraphs, of course it's all about the data,

5
00:00:19,190 --> 00:00:22,880
the details, the numbers, the differences, the similarities.

6
00:00:22,880 --> 00:00:24,950
We're being specific here.

7
00:00:25,940 --> 00:00:28,730
Each specific details, paragraph.

8
00:00:29,120 --> 00:00:34,550
You have 5 minutes to write, 5 minutes for paragraph three, 5 minutes for paragraph four.

9
00:00:34,580 --> 00:00:36,050
Total of 10 minutes.

10
00:00:36,560 --> 00:00:39,620
I want you to always work with a clock.

11
00:00:39,620 --> 00:00:41,660
With a clock, with a clock.

12
00:00:42,020 --> 00:00:48,950
And for each specific details, paragraph, you're going to have three sentences, three sentences for

13
00:00:48,950 --> 00:00:52,700
paragraph three, three sentences for paragraph number four.

14
00:00:56,600 --> 00:00:58,130
So here's what we were.

15
00:00:58,130 --> 00:01:00,140
Here's what we were working on before.

16
00:01:00,770 --> 00:01:06,140
We have our table and, you know, we've already written the introduction and the general overview.

17
00:01:06,350 --> 00:01:11,060
Now we're working on specific details, paragraphs three and four.

18
00:01:11,840 --> 00:01:16,640
So first of all, you can look at my table.

19
00:01:17,940 --> 00:01:22,830
And I have color coded the information that I'm going to compare.

20
00:01:23,910 --> 00:01:24,910
And to score.

21
00:01:24,930 --> 00:01:28,740
Well, it's all about how well you write the sentence.

22
00:01:29,280 --> 00:01:32,310
What level of grammar are you using?

23
00:01:32,670 --> 00:01:35,640
What level of vocabulary are you using?

24
00:01:36,060 --> 00:01:43,950
Because if you're using simple sentences, simple short sentences, simple basic vocabulary, it's really

25
00:01:43,950 --> 00:01:45,990
difficult to score above a six.

26
00:01:47,100 --> 00:01:49,830
So you have to show your skill level.

27
00:01:50,310 --> 00:01:54,810
Now for this one is really obvious how we're going to separate.

28
00:01:55,140 --> 00:02:01,830
We're going to use the coffee table for paragraph number three and the bananas table for paragraph number

29
00:02:01,830 --> 00:02:02,400
four.

30
00:02:03,250 --> 00:02:14,410
So if you want to go ahead and stop your lecture right now, set your clock on 5 minutes and write your

31
00:02:14,410 --> 00:02:17,080
third paragraph about coffee.

32
00:02:18,610 --> 00:02:24,520
Then when you come back, compare your paragraph to what I wrote.

33
00:02:24,520 --> 00:02:25,870
Do a comparison.

34
00:02:27,370 --> 00:02:30,910
This is this is something you can use for comparison purposes.

35
00:02:31,390 --> 00:02:34,090
Look at how I describe the numbers.

36
00:02:34,210 --> 00:02:36,820
Look at the vocabulary that I used.

37
00:02:37,150 --> 00:02:43,630
Try to take some of what I'm doing and add that into your own paragraph.

38
00:02:44,170 --> 00:02:49,510
That way you know how to raise your level of English and score much better.

39
00:02:49,870 --> 00:02:52,090
So set the clock on 5 minutes.

40
00:02:52,330 --> 00:02:55,990
Write your paragraph, your third paragraph, and then come back.

41
00:02:58,470 --> 00:02:59,060
Okay.

42
00:02:59,070 --> 00:03:02,040
Let's take a look at my third paragraph.

43
00:03:04,000 --> 00:03:10,300
Starting from 1999, Switzerland doubled its coffee receipts, equalling amount of 6 million.

44
00:03:10,330 --> 00:03:14,110
Also in 1999, the UK placed in the middle of the pack.

45
00:03:14,140 --> 00:03:22,930
But by 2004, it trafficked 20 million in coffee goods by massively increasing revenue by 18.5 million.

46
00:03:23,110 --> 00:03:31,090
Similarly, similarly to the UK, but in a more modest fashion, the remaining countries augmented their

47
00:03:31,090 --> 00:03:35,470
numbers by a few hundred thousand over the five years.

48
00:03:37,090 --> 00:03:39,700
Now let's go back and unpack what I did.

49
00:03:40,090 --> 00:03:42,640
First of all, we're looking we're looking at Switzerland.

50
00:03:42,670 --> 00:03:45,280
And I stated double 3 million to 6 million.

51
00:03:45,280 --> 00:03:45,880
That's doubled.

52
00:03:45,880 --> 00:03:46,420
Right.

53
00:03:47,110 --> 00:03:48,940
Equalling an amount of 6 billion.

54
00:03:49,030 --> 00:03:52,690
Also in 1999, the UK placed in the middle of the pack.

55
00:03:54,010 --> 00:04:01,030
I'm highlighting that language placed in the middle of the pack because that's the type of uncommon

56
00:04:01,030 --> 00:04:08,920
phrasing that shows you have a higher level of English right in the middle of the pack.

57
00:04:10,040 --> 00:04:14,960
Which is true because here we have Switzerland at three.

58
00:04:15,470 --> 00:04:18,440
Denmark at 1.8 and Belgium's at one.

59
00:04:18,440 --> 00:04:19,760
And Sweden 20.8.

60
00:04:19,790 --> 00:04:21,590
UK is in the middle of the pack.

61
00:04:23,470 --> 00:04:25,610
But by 2004, it trafficked.

62
00:04:25,630 --> 00:04:29,830
That's another way of saying selling a range of vocabulary.

63
00:04:30,550 --> 00:04:34,300
$20 Million in Coffee Goods by massively increasing revenue.

64
00:04:34,330 --> 00:04:35,830
Great collocation.

65
00:04:37,530 --> 00:04:46,230
By 18.5 million, similarly to the UK, but in a more modest fashion again phrasing.

66
00:04:46,950 --> 00:04:49,980
The remaining countries augmented their numbers.

67
00:04:50,250 --> 00:04:56,400
We're talking about change, increasing the numbers by a few hundred thousand over the five years.

68
00:04:57,270 --> 00:05:01,140
So I'm showing you vocabulary phrasing.

69
00:05:02,200 --> 00:05:05,950
This is how you can really show off your level of English.

70
00:05:05,980 --> 00:05:09,250
Increase your score and be above a seven.

71
00:05:11,330 --> 00:05:17,210
Now we're going to go ahead and move forward and talk about the bananas, what happened in 1999?

72
00:05:17,300 --> 00:05:19,880
What happened in 2004?

73
00:05:23,450 --> 00:05:27,590
So if you want to right now, go ahead and stop the lecture.

74
00:05:28,640 --> 00:05:35,420
Set your clock on 5 minutes and write your bananas paragraph and then come back and compare what you

75
00:05:35,420 --> 00:05:37,790
did to what I wrote.

76
00:05:42,140 --> 00:05:42,530
Okay.

77
00:05:42,530 --> 00:05:46,340
Let's take a look at my fourth paragraph.

78
00:05:48,570 --> 00:05:55,320
As for banana transactions this time, Switzerland more than tripled its monetary gains from the bananas

79
00:05:55,350 --> 00:06:00,930
over the five years, tripled more than triple 15 to 47.

80
00:06:02,130 --> 00:06:07,350
Look at the range of vocabulary transactions, monetary gains.

81
00:06:08,220 --> 00:06:12,960
This is how you show the examiners I belong at an 8 to 9 level.

82
00:06:13,680 --> 00:06:15,690
My range is wide.

83
00:06:19,320 --> 00:06:21,330
At the five year interval closing.

84
00:06:21,330 --> 00:06:25,590
Again, this is uncommon phrasing that shows a high level of English.

85
00:06:25,830 --> 00:06:29,410
Belgium and the UK experienced small sales expansion.

86
00:06:29,430 --> 00:06:32,010
Another way of saying increasing sales.

87
00:06:32,850 --> 00:06:37,320
With bananas climbing by 4.5 million and 3.4 million respectively.

88
00:06:40,120 --> 00:06:46,570
When it comes to Denmark and Sweden's performance during the Demi decade, banana dealings declined

89
00:06:46,570 --> 00:06:48,130
by approximately half.

90
00:06:49,240 --> 00:06:51,100
Dealings deals with sales.

91
00:06:51,550 --> 00:06:54,970
Using the word win, we're using a subordinate conjunction.

92
00:06:54,970 --> 00:06:56,680
We have a complex sentence.

93
00:06:57,100 --> 00:07:02,830
You notice all of my verbs are in the past tense, experienced, tripled, declined.

94
00:07:04,190 --> 00:07:04,940
So.

95
00:07:06,260 --> 00:07:08,480
You have to have the right information.

96
00:07:09,460 --> 00:07:14,110
But how you say it makes all the difference in the world.

97
00:07:14,710 --> 00:07:20,860
So I'm sure for a lot of you that are watching this lecture right now, when you wrote your paragraph,

98
00:07:21,070 --> 00:07:24,640
you have the same information that I have.

99
00:07:25,240 --> 00:07:28,840
But look at the difference in your writing and mind.

100
00:07:29,020 --> 00:07:33,170
What words, what vocabulary could you use to show more range?

101
00:07:33,190 --> 00:07:35,890
What can I do to increase my score?

102
00:07:36,940 --> 00:07:38,410
That's what you should be doing.

103
00:07:38,560 --> 00:07:44,820
Looking at your paragraphs, looking at my paragraphs and examining What can I do?

104
00:07:44,830 --> 00:07:48,820
How can I say this differently to increase my score?

105
00:07:53,190 --> 00:07:56,010
So here we have my introduction.

106
00:07:56,010 --> 00:08:00,720
We're putting it all together now, my general overview.

107
00:08:02,490 --> 00:08:08,400
My third body paragraph and my fourth body paragraph.

108
00:08:14,190 --> 00:08:14,580
OC.

109
00:08:14,580 --> 00:08:20,550
Coming up next, we're going to look at the two different charts or graphs.

110
00:08:20,580 --> 00:08:27,510
Question We're going to go ahead and talk about being able to scan and look for what information we're

111
00:08:27,510 --> 00:08:31,650
going to use and then applying our strategy.

112
00:08:34,150 --> 00:08:36,280
Thank you very much for joining me.

113
00:08:36,490 --> 00:08:39,670
I hope you learned a lot and I'll talk to you soon.
