The first thing to do is to train your note-taking skills. If the source of your problem is notes, analyze why what you wrote is not clear, slow, or not expressed with concise symbols. I would like to ask, how are you listening?
In fact, the listening of comprehensive writing is far less difficult than the listening part, after you are familiar with the template, you should expect something when listening, and guess what the points may be tested. It's better to listen to it more targeted. If you don't understand, you can also say the opposite of the reading material, because the real exams are all rebuttal type, and so far there is no support type for the real exam.
Reading should first look at the topic, and then refine the viewpoint, and look at the arguments as well, because there may be a clear contrast between the listening and reading parts, so that you can grasp that part while listening, and you don't have to pay too much attention to the details, because there will be a reading part in the writing, the key is to remember everything about the three points of view in your heart, and the most important thing in the listening part is the ideas and key words.

Comprehensive writing is to read the article first, then the article is hidden, listen to it, then the article appears, and write.
In short, it's the typical 3-3 that corresponds to the opposite line of thought.
Daily practice needs to focus on: reading quickly to find the topic sentence and the 3 reasons, listening shorthand skills, and reducing specific opposing points from notes (which is also the core of TOEFL listening, i.e., shorthand skills).
Comprehensive writing is modular, and it is easy to get a full score by grasping the above points.

Integrated writing is somewhat similar to speaking questions in that it is read a paragraph, listened to a paragraph, and then retold in conjunction with the material. So the first thing to say is to go back and practice listening, and there will be a reading material at the beginning of the comprehensive writing, but not only this time, this material will always appear when writing the essay later, so you don't need to memorize it in particular. These techniques and methods will also be covered in the TOEFL Intensive Course at Beijing New Oriental.
Then I think that the relationship between the two paragraphs of comprehensive writing is three arguments to refute three arguments (if you encounter mutual support, please go out of the examination room and turn right to buy a lottery ticket), so I read the reading materials roughly and find the three arguments and the general meaning, which is very helpful for listening and finding points and taking notes later.

The process is to read an article first, three minutes, and then listen to a lecture, and then write an article mainly based on the lecture, reflecting the difference between reading and listening arguments, and doing more questions on exercise to ensure that it is completed on time.
