    Hi Guys,

    Can someone explain the Re-order paragraph, as i am having issue to clear this one.
    What would be the correct order of the following sentences:

    1. In the lobby of an internet search engine company's headquarters in California, computer screens displays lists of words being entered into the company's search engine.
    2. Over the past year, a series of privacy gaffes and government attempts to gain access to the internet user's online histories have, along with consolidation among online search and advertising groups, thrust the issue of internet privacy into the spotlight.
    3. This presents a challenge to internet search companies, which have built a multi-billion dollar industry out of targeted advertising based on the information users reveal about themselves online.
    4. Although its says that the system is designed to filter out any scandalous or potentially compromising queries, the fact that even a fraction of searcher can be seen by visitors tot the world's biggest search company is likely to come as a shock to internet users who think of web browsing as a private affair.
    5. However, that may be changing.

    @alfa ang mock test nila iba sa mga practice questions nila. I bought the gold kit meron syang mock test A and mock test B. meron din sya practice questions. kaso yung practice question isang version lang. pag na practice mo na at nadaan one time. pag binalikan mo ulit yun pa din ang topic at question hindi sya nag babago.

    bili ka na lng ng mock test na isa para ma try mo lng ang timed at scored test.

    @vylette Most tips kasi na nabasa ko, try daw to always speak for at least 35seconds. Kasi the more ka na may nasasabi, mas marami kang details na mamemention. In my case nauutilize ko talaga yung 40secs e. Takot akong kontian, feeling ko kasi less points din. Pag nagppractice ka, do you time yourself? Pag wala ka nang masabi you can always use yung mga fillers na nabanggit sa previous tips.
