which words are more important which are

8:21

the key words

8:22

now let's look at part eight or part

8:24

seven for the first and

8:26

proficiency and this is multiple

8:28

matching so here you need to match

8:30

four to six short texts to

8:34

ten questions and there are two options

8:36

for the

8:37

method you want to use to to answer this

8:40

part of the exam

8:41

8:45

put the questions first

8:52

it may not be literal synonyms they may

9:15

not be

9:16

synonyms by a definition of the word

9:18

maybe synonyms in the context

9:21

also look out for negatives sometimes in

9:23

the question there'll be a negative

9:25

and it's not clear in the text if it's a

9:27

negative or positive because

9:29

the word that makes it negative may come
