If you are serious about learning and applying Mandarin Chinese, sooner or later you will be taking some Mandarin Chinese tests to assess your progress. The IB test is one of the most widely-used of these tests.

International Baccalaureate (IB) exams are offered once a year in high schools that offer IB courses. IB, or the International Baccalaureate Diploma Program, is a high school curriculum offered by IBO (International Baccalaureate Organization) to students worldwide. It aims to provide students with international education and lays foundation for their further studies in elite universities.

Today, Teacher Jessica introduces methods on how to ace the IOC (individual oral commentary) section of the IB Mandarin Chinese exam. She will exhibit how to comment on one chapter of All Men Are Brothers as an example, which is one of the four famous ancient novels in China. 

Teacher Jessica shows the student how to understand the logic of IOC:

First, students need to summarize all contents of the novel and point out the location of the chapter in the novel. Later, students can start to comment on the details in the chapter. In the video, the chapter commented is "水浒传鲁提辖拳打镇关西".
