    Summarize Spoken text


    Most of students do not know this and it is the reason why you keep failing in Writing and
    Listening.

    Summarize spoken text requires you to listen and summarize the lecture, it is scored against 5
    criteria:

    1/ Content: 2 pts

    2/Grammar: 2 pts

    3/Spelling: 2 pts

    4/Vocabulary: 2 pts

    5/Form: 2 pts

    With a total of 10 points added to Writing and Listening, it is roughly around 9 points in raw score
    on the report for both writing and listening, failing to perform well in SST well drastically affect
    your Writing and Listening.

    As you can see, it is quite easy to gain maximum pts for Grammar, spelling, vocabs and form by
    using a simple structure.

    However, there is one requirement no one knows about, which is the content.

    This section requires you to acquire at least 50% ( at least 1 point) of the content keywords before
    they start marking your remaining criteria. So if you have <50% keywords, your entire work will be
    awarded with a ZERO.

    If you have good grammar, don’t use


    template, write more keywords
    1. Grammar: Write a simple sentence structure: S + V + O
    2. Write between 50-70.
    3. Write a short sentence
    4. Meaning is not important
    5. Do not paraphrase keywords
    6. You can make up the sentence to make sure the grammar is correct
    7. Write a grammatically correct paragraph contains keywords noted from the
    lecture
    8. You will either get high score in this part or no score ☺, so keywords = king

    For example, keywords are: Australia, location, exports,


    international, trade, territory, transportation, expenses, telecommunications, Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane,
    Telstra, tariff, psychological barriers, purchasing power

    Then sample is: ( 55 words)

    focuses on the territory of international trade including transportation,
    expenses and telecommunications of Telstra. Secondly, the lecture
    also mentions that Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane are the main
    locations. Lastly, the lecture denotes that there are psychological
    barriers in the purchasing power because of the tariff.
