While listening,you must write notes quickly and efficiently.Because you have so little time,ignore spelling,verb tenses,and proper grammar.For example,mathematical symbols,shapes,and arrows are useful for representing many ideas.Look at the following chart(see also the example for Strategy 5):
+
- and,also,as well,moreover,furthermore,with,together,etc.
=
- be,become,look,sound,taste,smell,feel,verb + like
=/
- be+not,not like,dissimilar,not alike
x<y
- x less/lower/weaker/than y, x not as....as y
x>y
- x more/bigger/greater/stronger than y, y not as....as x
Right arrow
- become,change/transform in to
- affect,result in,cause,create,make
- move/relocate to,immigrate/emigrate to
Up arrow
- increase,rise,jump,spike,go higher/up,raise,lift,improve,be/become popular
Down arrow
- decrease,fall,go lower/down,hurt/ruin,be/become unpopular
x
- not accept,reject,not like/enjoy,disapprove of,stop,destroy,ruin
- ? question,not know,unsure,uncertain,must find out/learn/study,debate
