  37. Thanks for the tips. I have one confusion with summarize spoken text, do we have to summarize in one sentence between 50-70 words or can we write more than one sentence within the word limit?Also, can you please illustrate what you mean by “vomit the vowels”?

  40. I’m impressed, I have to admit. Rarely do I encounter
    a blog that’s equally educative and entertaining, and let me tell you,
    you’ve hit the nail on the head. The issue is an issue that not enough people are
    speaking intelligently about. I’m very happy I found this during my search for
    something relating to this.
