Time Management Techniques for the English Exam - 6.1

Reading Section Example: Before reading an unseen passage on the benefits of renewable energy, you quickly scan questions like "What percentage of solar power generation increased by?" and "What does 'sustainable' mean in paragraph 3?" to guide your reading.

Writing Section Example: For a 'Notice', you ensure it's enclosed in a box, has a prominent heading, and includes the issuing authority, date, event, time, venue, and contact person, all within 50 words, allowing about 8 minutes.

Literature Short Answer Example: If asked about Franz's regret in 'The Last Lesson', your 40-50 word answer would directly state he regretted procrastinating his French lessons and valuing them only upon their loss, due to the order from Berlin.

Literature Long Answer Example: For a question on "Deep Water" about overcoming fear, you first mentally outline: "Introduction (Douglas's fear), Body 1 (early experiences, Y.M.C.A incident), Body 2 (instructor's role, methodical training), Body 3 (personal challenges/testing), Conclusion (mastery of fear, life lesson)," then proceed to write for 20-25 minutes.

Review Time Example: After finishing the paper, you quickly scan to ensure all questions are attempted, check for obvious spelling mistakes in common words like 'definitely' or 'separate', and confirm that paragraphs are clearly separated for readability.
