Hi folks,
It's been some time since we last blogged. Here is one last topic just before your exam.
Please review the last lesson we had on dealing with "Inference Question". Blog about what you have learnt and how it had helped you with your comprehension skills. You may also write about what could have improved.
You have till Sunday to complete this.

Well I've forgot the user and pass for this blog so I'm posting a comment using my own account.... Hope that you guys won't mind....
For the lessons on inference skills... I think it was quite interesting and fun. We got to find hidden meaning in sentences and we exchanged pointers and skills on how to tackle those questions. The passages are very interesting too... After reading those passages I was more inspired to get better results in writting than in comprehension... Hahas.
As for what I have learnt, I think I brushed up my skills on inferring after observing how my friends tackle the problems. I have found out that trying to extract the meaning of one sentence alone is better than looking at a whole chunk of words and trying to find the 'over-all' meaning of them. Well maybe that work for some people but it doesn't work for me.
What could have been improved? to my opinion... the lessons were close to perfect already... but i think we can cut down on discussing irrelevant topic. At first it was fun and everything... but drilling on inferring skills with our group members for the whole period was abit tedious for me and by the end of the lesson I was dozing off already...(no offense).
In conclusion, the lessons was fine and I believe we have learnt quite alot and it will surely be beneficial for us in our tests and examinations...
Last but not least, I would like to wish 3-5 good luck for the coming end of year examination :D

During the inference lessons, i have learnt how to infer better. I would also need to imagine about the situation the person is in, in order to infer effectively. This indeed help me to score better for inference questions. i would choose to have more practices on how i use the inference skills. I haven't really master the skill yet.
