Taking and Making Notes
When you listen or read the text you may take notes in the way you like. You can make a scheme or a drawing, you may use separate words or short phrases. All of these things will remind you about the events which you want to remember or to put down later.
We usually make notes to prepare or to plan something. It may be an event, an action or a writing. While making notes, a person uses his own pattern of proposing the situation. It’s a kind of individual brainstorm in solving the problem. In this way you try to note down the ideas as they occur to you and show the way they are connected up. Don’t forget that if you want to be understood well, every oral or written idea should have the introduction to topic, the body and the conclusion.
