Once again we shall work on True false and Not Given.I hope you understand that this is very important question type in reading.There will be atleast 12-15 ques out of 40 in the exam.
You will get a question statement that you need to compare it with the given passage and decide if the meaning of the statement agrees with the passage(then the answer is YES),if it is opposite (then it is NO) and if the information is unclear or not mentioned(then it is NOT GIVEN)
There are 4 Steps in Solving this:
1. Read the question carefully and see if there are some key words..
2.Check the passage if you can find some or all the key words and underline or note them.
Key words means important words.They are generally Names,dates,numbers etc.
3.Now again read the question and understand the whole sentence properly. Remember that if you dont understand the question then you may get a wrong answer. So understanding the question is more important.
Please do not just focus on words but on the meaning of the complete question.This is a very important stage so dont go ahead until you understand what is written there.
4.Go back to the passage where you got the key words and read it and compare if what is said in the question, matches with the passage.
IF it matches then the answer is YES.
IF it says the opposite of the question, then it is NO.
And if you are confused between YEs and NO then its NOT Given.
Remember that the question and the passage will use different words , so be prepared to identify synonyms or alternate words.
Read the following questions and answer them by reading the given passage.Follow the above rules.
Some more important points to consider when solving T/F/NG:
1.Look for anything to show that the statement is not true and pay particular attention to verbs that contradict(oppose) or negate a sentence.(FOr eg:deny,refuse,criticize,etc)
2.When you have scanned the text and located the relevant place in the text, if there is no information, then the answer is "Not Given"
Note:do not share the answers here.note it down in the copy and compare it with the answers I am going to share in some time.
3.The answers follow the order of the text.Meaning the answers in the passage will come one after the other in order.
4.You must only base your answers on the information in the passage and not on what you may know or use your opinion.(For eg, if you know the information is true but it is not given in the passage, then the answer is NOT GIVEN)
5.Always pay attention to comparative adjectives and those words that qualifies a statement or words.(eg:mainly, always,often,never)
Also pay attention to verbs that have different degrees of truth.(Eg:Suggest,claim,believe, know).
6.Just write 'True','False','Not Given'. No further information is required in the answer.
7.Remember there will be at least on of each type of answer.
Now...go ahead and solve the ques.Will share the answers shortly.
