uh today reading and uh this lesson will be followed by another lesson or task two lesson for everyone and then tomorrow we will have a question and answer session for members so uh honey abhishek by ronoas rashika nikhil abhishek get your questions and answers ready for tomorrow and we'll finish the week off with the speaking part to class for everyone okay so let me just get rid of this here from yesterday and we'll look at our reading passage for the day this is coming from our ninth exam that we'll be releasing in 2021 and here the title of our uh reading is the formation of the himalayas all right so we're not worried about uh the questions right now we're not worried about uh content right now we're not worried so much about comprehension right now we're worried about fluency so one of the big complaints for students in the ielts exam is i don't have enough time to read the ielts passage does anybody feel that way any of our members feel like they don't have enough time to read the isle's passage it's definitely a common complaint that we get people saying i don't have enough time to read the ielts passage and then they say so i just skim read but that doesn't seem to work very well i get lots of ants yeah so we hear that in one way or another uh often times okay yeah so obviously says especially in uh passage three okay um so here's the good news uh 20 minutes is definitely enough time okay so 20 minutes is enough time to read and answer okay um two minutes thinking uh 10 minutes reading eight minutes answering okay so that's kind of how you should think about this everyone so for each passage you should spend about 20 minutes give or take one or two minutes you should have about two minutes to think about the title the questions then you should read the passage in about 10 minutes and then you should answer in about eight minutes that's lots of time for each passage and i'm going to show you what you need to do here a little bit more so hang in there okay uh keep this in mind so keep in mind that an average grade 12 student in the us or uk can read a passage like this in six minutes and answer most questions correctly okay why is that important especially for academic ielts students if you get to university the average student in the us or uk we'll read a passage like this in six minutes and answer most of the questions and they are your competition in university so if you cannot do a passage like this especially for those of you who are looking to do the academic and go to university what will happen in university so what will happen in college when you're there and you get lots and lots of reading material that's much more advanced you have to think about that okay so here's another piece of advice to effectively and the key here is the word effectively improve your reading you must be able to separate out the skills of reading comprehension versus reading fluency okay practice each on their own and then combine them so yesterday we practiced reading comprehension how do you understand the content of the passage asking what why how visualizing okay so focusing on content today we're going to focus on fluency so today's focus is on fluency okay and there are lots of different exercises that you can do to improve your reading fluency your speed of reading so if you feel that you cannot read and answer a passage in 20 minutes you have to focus on your fluency and there are different steps to do this the first step is read the passage for ah let's take it one step at a time skim read a paragraph for challenging words and say each twice aloud if you do not know their pronunciation or meaning then check online today you have some great tools google is great for this okay so google even has a slow-mo pronunciation practice um integration now has anybody seen that has anybody seen google's new pronunciation practice feature where you can actually slow down the speech and get google to pronunciate the word for practice in different languages especially in english has anybody seen that i highly recommend trying it i don't want to switch to my browser and everything right now but it's available if you just uh check the meaning of a word on google then google will now have a pronunciation feature uh that you can practice with okay so for doves nikhil os abhishek and rashika say yes i've seen that great that's good i'm happy that you're exploring and you've identified that so definitely use that okay all right so we're going to do that right now this step one so again step one this is reading so it's very important that you read with me and you practice with me okay and read aloud you have to use your allowed reading today okay and we're going to skim read the the paragraph for challenging words we're going to say each one twice it's very important to do this twice okay of course it goes a little bit faster when you have a teacher who knows how to pronounce the words okay and another point to keep in mind is more is better than less if you kind of think it might be challenging then say it twice aloud so more is better than less okay all right so um here we go this is a part of our technique called power reading that you can learn more about on the websites so we're going to start from the top here the formation of the himalayas so i'm skim reading and here i would be doing this quietly okay so uh here if you're doing this at home you can underline this this is for practice so this is not a skill for the actual exam this is what you're doing practicing before the exam i just want to make that really clear okay everyone so let's do this start with me three two one himalayas himalayas range range separates separates subcontinent subcontinent himalayas legendary legendary mount everest mount everest massive massive stretching stretching 2400 2400 kilometers kilometers roughly roughly arc arc clearest clearest theory theory continental drift continental drift continents continents relative relative 400 400 abraham abraham ortilius ortillius generally generally okay so you'll get better and better at this as you go now this is a very important step for the next step so notice how i underline them and again more is better than less here i did a collocation together and sometimes short words can be tricky to pronounce so don't just think it's long words like subcontinent here or himalayas notice how names and numbers i focused on so 2400 i find a lot of students get stuck on names and numbers so here we're building your fluency so that you can build up your speed so that you can read quickly everybody good so far so everybody following me with this first step okay so i'm skimming for difficult words i'm pronouncing them twice loud and clear this becomes very important for my next step okay everybody good so far thumbs up yes fist bump all of those are good signs okay all right so step number two is okay daniel says thumbs up okay cool is read complete phrases and then sentences sen ten says clearly and allowed okay so seems like a tedious task and you don't have to do this all the time but just doing it once or twice with one passage per week will really help to improve your fluency students who have uh followed my advice on this many of them have sent me emails or have come back to me and said hey adrian wow i literally improved my reading speed by like 30 40 percent over a month six weeks okay so right now i'm going to read phrases and then sentences now phrases and sentences are usually separated by conjunctions and adjective pronouns okay so or adverbial pronouns so here we go read with me okay the himalayas are a mountain range in asia the himalayas are a mountain region age mountain range in asia okay so i'm going to stop there and then i'm going to read my second phrase which separates the indian subcontinent from the rest of asia so here i have two phrases the himalayas are a mountain range in asia and then the second phrase is which separates the indian subcontinent from the rest of asia okay now having a glass of water with this exercise is a great idea so you can wet your whistle and so you don't fumble like i just did and i definitely recommend drinking water lots when you're studying anyway alright so here we go with the next one the himalayas contain some of the world's highest mountains including the highest point in the world the legendary mount everest the himalayas contain some of the world's highest mountains including the highest point in the world the legendary mount everest okay i hope everybody's reading with me aloud okay so i'm reading phrases and then i'm reading sentences the range is not only tall it is also massive stretching 2 400 kilometers across a roughly west east arc see why it's important to pronounce those twice okay here we go the range is not only tall it is also massive stretching 2 400 kilometers across a roughly west east arc now here we go the creation of the himalayas is one of the clearest examples of the theory of continental drift which states that earth's continents have moved relative to each other over millions of years the creation of the himalayas is one of the clearest examples of the theory of continental drift which states that earth's continents have moved relative to each other over millions of years put forward over 400 years ago by abraham ortilius continental drift is an example of a scientific theory which is generally accepted as fact today okay so now we've read phrases then we've read sentences okay last one put forward over 400 years ago by abraham ortilius continental drift and is an example of a scientific theory which is generally accepted as fact today so what i'm doing here is i'm pushing my fluency everybody with me so far any questions so far as we go to our next step okay we've got one more step here uh four i actually got two more steps for fluency here okay everybody good so far any questions elite it's better late than never for dave says no questions it's fine okay now comes the challenging part step three is the challenging step okay read the paragraph together fluently about 30 percent faster than you think you can at times let's make this a new sentence so at times fumbling or skipping words is okay the goal here is to push the limits of your fluency the speed of your eyes and your mind okay so in order to be faster in order to be better you have to push yourself you have to push your limits if you always stop at your limit progress is slow if you push past your limits progress is faster is that clear so it may feel awkward it should feel awkward but you must push past your limits okay so i'm going to do this and then uh try it with me so go as fast as you can no go faster than you can fumbling and skipping some of the words if you're reading all of the words you're not going uh fast enough okay so here we go i'm going to read this go as fast as you can if you can't go as fast as me that's okay if you can go faster than me that's fine as well so here we go the himalayas are martin range danger which separates indian subcontinent from the rest of asia and contains arrested high mountain including the highest point in the world the legend of mount everest the range is not only telling us massive stretching twenty five across the west arch the creation of the himalayas is one of the clearest examples here continental jeff which is contest move relative to each other millions of years put forward over 400 years ago by artillery's content will drift his example scientific theory which is generally acceptable as fact today okay so my tongue got tired there and twisted a couple of times i skipped some of the words most of them i got okay all right so i'm pushing myself all right i'm pushing myself and that step every time i push myself to be faster and faster pushes my limits okay so pushes my limits all right so everybody tried that feel a little bit weird feel a little bit awkward it's totally okay that's how it should feel okay when you're pushing your limits it's normal to feel awkward if you're not feeling awkward you're probably not pushing your limits enough okay all right so that's what you got to do guarantee that you will speed up and be faster now what i would do here as my fourth step okay is read the paragraph one last time silently in my mind not allowed at my fastest speed at which i can still read each word clearly okay now we can't really do that um together because then i would just be staring at the paragraph and reading and you wouldn't hear anything because i'm reading it purely in my mind but for the lessons purpose i can show you what i mean okay so in this last step this would all be happening in my mind only all of the previous steps i'm reading aloud it's very important to read aloud for each of the previous steps okay but for this step i'm reading silently and in my mind so the himalayas are mountain range in asia which separates the indian subcontinent from the rest of asia the himalayas contains some of the world's highest mountains including the highest point in the world the legendary mount everest the range is not only tall it is also massive stretching 2 400 kilometers across the roughly west east arc the creation of the himalayas is one of the clearest examples of the theory of continental drift which states that earth's continents have moved relative to each other over millions of years put forward over four hundred years ago by abraham and attilio's continental drift is an example of a scientific theory which is generally accepted as fact today okay so that's kind of what would be happening in my mind okay now my mind could be a bit faster because i don't need to move my tongue but that's roughly what i'm doing so i'm reading the whole paragraph at my maximum speed mentally without skipping words if i make a mistake i have to stop and go back okay all right so that's what you want to do and yes for doves of course mentally you can read much faster okay but you can read uh you can improve your mental speed through your verbal speed so that's this one last step here at the end okay the reason why those first three steps are very important is because if as when english is not your native language you do need to know how those words are pronounced clearly to have clear comprehension okay everybody um good so far any questions about these four steps so let's kind of revisit these okay so step number one skim read the paragraph for challenging words read each one of them twice aloud if you don't know their pronunciation check it online underlining more words is better than less sometimes i saw that students underlined not enough words and then they get stuck and they fumble on many words okay the second step is read complete phrases and then read complete sentences clearly and aloud then this kind of interesting step where you're reading faster than you can kind of jumping words and for dogs you can do this third step a second time where you're doing it mentally and you're pushing yourself to read mentally faster than you can skipping some of the words okay and then read uh step number four is mentally read or silently the uh the paragraph again and go through it now to really build your fluency i'll add one last step it's kind of an interesting one but it's well worth it okay it's worth doing this step so once you have done this for each of the paragraphs in the passage read the entire passage again at your maximum speed okay so i'll let you in on a little secret here okay a very important part of improv improving your fluency in reading is to read the same information more than once yes it's okay to read new passages every day yes it's okay to do new practice exams each day however it's very important to revisit passages and exams that you have already done and read them a second and even a third or fourth time okay os you definitely read each paragraph more than once you read it up to three four times okay so this is practice strategy before the exam os okay you don't actually do this on the exam this is what you do before the exam in the weeks and the months leading up to the exam so that you can improve your reading fluency then you combine this with the comprehension practice that i showed you yesterday and then you can really read quickly and understand what you read okay so once you have done this combine your comprehension and fluency practice and after six weeks of doing this you will be amazed at not only the speed improvement but also your comprehension okay so that's the trick yeah always you would never do this in the real exam oh god no okay this is what you do before the exam all right how many students this is a question to my members here how many of you regularly go back and re-read the same passage in the same week that you've done it so i know a lot of you have practice exams from cambridge books maybe from barons from our websites from other places how many of you actually take the same passage and go over it at least two three four times in the same day or at least in the same week okay ferdav says i do nick hill says yes i do okay and so amrita says me okay good abhishek says no i don't okay abhishek you should okay and for dobbs nikhil amrita how many of you when you re-read the same passage so honey when you read the same passage again how many of you tried to read it faster than before so how many of you actively go okay i'm reading this for the second time now i'm going to read it faster than just 20 minutes ago or than i did yesterday so how many of you actively do this okay that's my question here is how many of you actively think okay now that it's my second read of this passage i will read it faster than before so how many of you think about that purposefully so not just okay i'm going to read this passage again and then you read at the same speed but go okay now i'm going to read it again and i'm going to read it faster okay and he says i will now try to be faster okay nikhil says not yet but i will do it yeah absolutely okay so don't just think i'm going to understand more but also think i'm going to read it faster it's interesting because most students and that was kind of a trick question i knew that most people don't do this but you should so most people will think okay i will read it again and i will understand more this is common okay but many people don't think and i will read it faster okay but you should all right so don't just think i will understand more but also think i will read it faster and then you're combining fluency and comprehension everybody good yeah all right okay so go through this practice do it a few times i guarantee you do this practice a couple times a week for the next four or five weeks six weeks and you will be amazed at not only your comprehension but your fluency improving okay and then magic will start to happen when you do this often so you can actually train your reading to read phrases and then you can even train your reading to read entire paragraphs so when i read a book right now i'm reading the book propaganda by edward barnes or bernays it's an interesting book and um what i find myself doing is um i i often i'm not just reading words or not even sentences but i'm actually reading phrases so i'm looking at or chunks so when i look at this i can read this whole piece just by looking at it or i can read this whole piece just by looking at all of the words at once okay so you can even train your eyes to read blocks of text at one time all right it's a wonderful skill it's just like training yourself to touch type while looking at the screen the brain is quite an incredible piece of machinery and you all have these beautiful beautiful organic super computers on your shoulders you just have to push the limits of your noggin your super computer to be able to do that okay all right so how is everybody doing everybody's good so far i haven't lost you in this chaos of information acquisition and reading strategy okay honey says yes i do that i also try to read phrases yeah and it's very tricky right it's it's uh it's uh much more difficult when it's not your first language right so absolutely ferdav says let's do it now okay what we will do now for doves is we're going to read this passage and we're going to answer the questions together at a nice comfortable pace we have about 20 minutes left in the class let's do it okay so here we go from the top without even looking at the questions the formation of the himalayas we're gonna do it together okay so read with me we'll read the passage we'll answer the questions get in some practice you can do the fluency practice after the class with some other passages okay here we go the himalayas are a mountain range in asia which separates the indian subcontinent from the rest of asia the himalayas contain some of the world's highest mountains including the highest point in the world the legendary mount everest the range is not only tall it is also massive stretching 2 400 kilometers across a roughly west east arc the creation of the himalayas is one of the clearest examples of the theory of continental drift which states that earth's continents have moved relative to each other over millions of years put forward over 400 years ago by abraham ortelius continental drift is an example of a scientific theory which is generally accepted as fact today continental drift theory posits that the continents have not always been in the position they are in today and the existence of the himalayas is strong evidence of this theory but how does continental drift work and how did it create the himalayas how does continental drift work the earth is not a solid rock instead the earth's crust floats atop a layer of semi-solid very hot 1300 degrees celsius material known as the asthenosphere in this layer convection takes place bringing heat from the lower reaches of the planet up towards the surface hot gas and liquid rise up replacing cooler and denser gases and liquids this circulation of hot and cold pushes the plates of the earth's crust shifting the appearance of the earth over millions of years where a plate goes and how fast it goes depends on the convention currents below the surface of any given point on the earth how did continental drift create the himalayas the short answer is india caused the himalayas a hundred million years ago what is now the indian subcontinent stood sixty four hundred kilometers south of its current position near the current position of australia particularly strong convection currents below the region began to push india northward every year the land mass came about 12 centimeters closer to asia that's about a centimeter per month the approximate width of your pinky or little finger this may not sound like a lot of movement and it certainly is not on small time scales but when taken in the context of enormous time frames this distance becomes significant quite quickly 12 centimeters per year is 12 meters per century 120 meters per millennium and 120 kilometers per million years this means that the 6400 kilometer gap could be closed in about 50 million years and indeed this is what has happened over this immense time frame india slowly but surely made its way northward on a collision course that could not be stopped approximately 40 to 50 million years ago the india land mass collided with the asian continent with nowhere for the landmass to go and with forces underneath still propelling it forward the land mass went the only place it could go up over the past tens of millions of years the himalayas have formed as a result of the unstoppable forces pushing india into asia in this time peaks like mount everest have risen to over nine kilometers above sea level what's next for the himalayas the himalayas continue to grow in fact they grow approximately one centimeter per year again this may not sound like a lot but it means the mountain range will grow about 10 kilometers in a million years this means that in 10 million years the mountain range could be a hundred kilometers tall if a person could travel in time they might see a truly colossal mountain range which dwarfed everything seen on earth today other effects of the movement the creation of the himalayas is not the only effect of india's slow but steady crash into asia the same forces that push the himalayas upward also create huge tension in the earth's crust which from time to time must be released resulting in massive earthquakes some of history's most violent and destructive earthquakes came as a result of the indian subcontinent's relentless surge into asia interestingly another common consequence of plate tectonics and continental drift volcanoes do not take place in the himalayas this is because the mountain range is so large and the crust underneath is so thick that any magma moving upwards solidifies before it can reach the peaks in a sense volcanic activity is extinct in the himalayas okay so uh i read that in six minutes 30 seconds okay so you don't have to read quite that fast you can read about 50 slower and you're still within that 10 minutes okay that was 6 minutes 30 seconds and this is a fairly long passage it's closer to 800 words how was that everybody okay at that speed was everybody able to follow along yeah at least visually if not verbally reading silently or reading aloud hopefully okay remember students this lesson is recorded so you can go back and you can reread with me again and again until you get that speed okay all right so everybody's like yeah that was okay six and a half minutes okay six and a half minutes if you read that fast you now have a good 12 minutes to answer okay so step by step piece by piece this was very very visual it explained the himalayas it explained how the himalayas happened it explained the movement of the subcontinent of india how it moved from around the location of australia into the asian plate and what caused that movement what are the results here we go let's answer some questions himalayan formation moving land masses rising mountains the himalayas are massive they span over 2400 kilometers and their formation provides evidence for something the theory that our planets land masses have shifted positions over time uh what's that ferdav says it's continental drift yeah they mentioned this about three four times okay hopefully everybody got that continental drift okay it's mentioned three or four times in the text it's repetitive when you have repetitive information like that you definitely know that it should be the right answer uh no more than two words so right away you have a two-word answer here continental drift okay so here we go how does it work the asthenosphere is the something of the earth that below the crop that's below the crust it is very hot and is semi-solid okay so what is the asthenosphere in the earth okay what is it keep it simple so it's a noun so the tells me this is a noun and is the tells me that this noun defines this so the asthenosphere is very good os very good amrita it's a layer yeah it's the layer of the earth okay great yeah you don't have to overthink it layer defines the asthenosphere now if you had to search asthenosphere is a pretty easy word to search for but you have to be careful making sure that you find the right word which is layer okay all right let's keep going uh in this layer this helps me with this question in this layer hot gas and liquid rise up and replace cooler areas this process called something causes the changes of the position of the earth so liquid rises up and replaces cooler areas what is this process called okay so hot gas goes up cooler things go down okay well maybe i'm not sure at this point i want to go back quickly check so this is the process so i'm looking for the asthenosphere okay all right so asthenosphere there it is and again that fluency that i was showing you so that reading fluency will help train your eyes to catch words quickly so asthenosphere in this layer convection takes place bringing heat from the lower reaches of the planet up towards the surface hot gas and liquid rise up replacing cooler and denser gases and liquids this circulation of hot and cold pushes the plates earth's crust shifting the appearance so what is this process called you should have the answer now this process called something causes the changes convection circulation yeah it's called circulation this circulation this process called circulation because it's circling so it's not actually convection here convection is a little bit different causes the changes of the position of earth's continents over millions of years creating the himalayas in short the subcontinent of india caused the himalayas india used to be much further south closer to the modern country of this should be an easy one circulation was the right answer they might take convection but like convection oven but circulation australia okay though india moved only 12 centimeters per year this rate added up to an something amount of time what is it so it added up over uh something amount of time how much time okay so 12 centimeters a year it's not a lot but through uh so it's an adjective here this is going to be an adjective again um i can check here so i'm looking for australia okay because i did my fluency practice i can find australia very quickly i remember this was about here somewhere okay so that's about a centimeter per month okay this may not sound like a lot of movement and it certainly is but when taken in the context of enormous time frames this becomes significant the centimeters per year is 12 meters k kilometers so [Music] okay over this immense time frame india slowly but surely made its way northward and collided okay i think enormous and immense either of those two words are okay right so here we go enormous amount of time okay sure enormous or immense both of those would be okay here eventually the force of india pushing into asia created the highest point on earth okay what's the highest point on earth this one should be easy you should not have to check for this okay mount you can write mount like this okay for short mt very good abhishek nicely done mount everest okay that's a gimme it's an easy one mount everest make sure to write mount everest don't just write everest mount everest okay so it's everest mountain mount everest okay good uh true false not given here we go nice and fast okay in millions of years the himalayas will be much taller than they are today is that important for the passage yes it is is it true yes it is okay very easy uh it said that in a hundred million years they could be like reaching into the clouds or something like that so it said it's going a centimeter in millions of years centimeter a year million centimeters will be a hundred kilometers high right so true india and australia were once connected is it important to know this uh for the text not really so i would go with a not given here i didn't visualize it and i don't think it's important to know whether or not india and australia were connected we don't know that it's not important we didn't visualize it so it's not given okay the tension between india and asia has caused mountains to grow and earthquakes to occur so the tension between india and asia is it important for the text yeah it is uh is it true that this tension this pressure between india and asia has created mountains and earthquakes for number nine i think it's true okay it's important and it's true i don't know why you guys are saying false why wouldn't i be false india's crashing into asia it's causing mountains the himalayas they're growing and there's also earthquakes there i don't know why why is that false why do you think that's false is it because of the word tension tension is pressure okay and so this is another synonym for pressure or conflict okay so number nine the tension between india and asia has caused the mountains to grow and earthquakes occur so number nine should be true okay all right um yeah tension is fine okay tension pressure smacking into it volcanoes are active in the himalayas so we're talking about mountains mountains and volcanoes are somewhat synonymous okay uh tension is continental drift for doves so continental drift and tension are kind of the same okay all right number ten um it's important okay so it's given is it true no it's false right we read that there's no volcanoes in the himalayas and if you know that then you can answer that right so just make sure that it's given okay so and make sure your false is a clear f like that okay this is not good to have that because they don't know if that's true or false so don't have that piece there just like that okay all right so true not given true false all right okay questions 11 to 13 match the following concept with the details continental drift convection and asthenosphere uh so theorized more than four centuries ago so four centuries equals 400 years this was abraham ortilius uh what's the answer for number 11. nice and quick pay attention to the paraphrasing so 400 years ago this theory was invented very good os very good abhishek great job rashika nice job for dobbs it's a it's continental drift okay states that the earth's land masses have shifted position over time so it says that okay um they have shifted position over time a b or c continental drift convection or asthenosphere states that the earth's land masses have shifted over time what's that one number 12. it's a okay continental drift is the theory that states that the earth's land masses have shifted over time so it's a okay pay attention to this one note by the way you may use any letter more than once okay all right so continental drift continental drift heat rises from the lower levels of the earth towards the higher levels so heat rising is convection b okay so a a b right aab okay asthenosphere is the layer of the earth that's under the crust okay this one you shouldn't answer all right because uh if you got these questions correct okay so let the questions help you here um this is why it's important to get the early questions correct the asthenosphere is the layer of the earth that's below the crust okay so if you got this one correct you shouldn't get any of those uh with c does everybody see that everybody sees that as long as you get this one right you shouldn't get any of those wrong with this choice okay all right great job everyone so again remember from this class to learn fluency okay separate the practice of fluency from comprehension we just
