Identifying keywords ᗆйᗫᒟ൚
To answer questions about people, find keywords such as their
names, classes and who they are. Pay attention to the spelling of
names.
Example (Reading 1, Practice point, Question 5)
I am Daniel. I am in Class 1B. I love
my new school. Miss Tam is our
Maths teacher.
She is nice. Luke and Mandy are my
friends. Luke is tall and thin. Mandy
has long hair.
5 Miss Tam teaches ( English / Maths ).
1 In the question, the keywords are 'Miss Tam'. We need to find
out the subject she teaches.
2 Look for the keywords in the text. We can find the words in the
sentence 'Miss Tam is our Maths teacher.'
3 Miss Tam is Daniel's Maths teacher. This means she teaches
Maths.
(Answer: Maths)
We may find information about different people in a text. Do not mix up
the information. We only need to look for keywords about the people that
the question asks.
We can find information about Daniel, Miss Tam, Luke and Mandy in the
text. To answer this question, read only the information about Miss Tam.
