Unravel[/quote]Yes, I will choose 'unravel' if the option was given as unravel & not unravell-ed. The rest of the words have a similar meaning but not suitable to replace the word \"figure out\" in this context.

Is it “move up” to secondary one or “move on” to secondary one?

Mine wrote move up

Think the answer is \"move on\" to...

class, had confirmed that the printing inside the Psle booklet this morning was \"unravel\" , not \"unravelled\". Present tense, not past tense.
So, your friend who gave u the terminology in past tense was wrong, right from the very beginning


Reveal : is to show
Interpret : is to decipher
Recognise : is familiarity

none of the above 3, fit the grandma case, except \"unravel\"

Unravel: is to solve, work out

Answer : unravel

[quote=AAHL post_id=1937394 time=1569485642 user_id=176898]Is it “move up” to secondary one or “move on” to secondary one?

Mine wrote move up

Think the answer is \"move on\" to...[/quote]Yes, answer should be \"move on\" to something new, to a new chapter (journey) in their life, ie. Sec 1, because their primary school journey had already ended.

You do not \"move up\" to a next, new journey in your life. But, you \"move on\" forward to the next stage of your life's journey

Just like us, right now. English over today, dusted, can throw away our mountain high piled up stack of English school worksheets ! So, what should we do ?

Let's \"move on\" to tackle Maths next, and not \"move up\" to tackle Maths.

In fact, this English qn set was very tricky. SEAB think because we students all from P6 move up to Sec 1 next year, one level up, so they used the word \"up\", try to trick us, make us fall for it

Synthesis & Transformation: “humility” or “humbleness”? Google says both seem ok?

Yes my ds use humbleness . First thing get out of school , went to Google this

Same here, my DS put humbleness, but not sure why he came back said should put humility :roll:

These are the pictures

A CELEBRATION
1) people dancing on stage
2) 2 person holding a baby
3) invitation

My gal wrote abt 2. Arrival of her new sibling. Is it allright ah??

Anyone know which is correct, to hold or to carry a baby? Will it lead to loss of marks for using the wrong vocabulary?

The watery mess is ambiguous n vague. But my DS put 231 too. But the paint smudged w water is also a mess...

What about the Dragon Kiln flyer-visual text? My DS said was tricky too and what's the main aim of flyer?

- to provide info about the fire event
- to preserve the heritage of the dragon Kiln..

This q also many differing views.

Shld be to provide info about the event as at the last part it was stated

Thank you!
