Q&A - PSLE English

[Clairifina]

I wrote 6 pages. My teacher said that it was okay to write a lot so long as you don't make many grammatical mistakes while writing it. My teacher also encouraged us to write at least 3 pages.

[NY1969]

Wow …6 pages! That’s a lot. Do you have time to cross check for grammar errors?

[Michaelia0816]

I also write the Q3, but I writes about pranks, LOl.

Yup. Checked everything and had just enough time to change all the errors. Hope i didn't miss anything though.

For A and C you can answer either way as they are all grammatically correct.. However I like the first answers because of their brevity.

But for B, I would just go with answer 2 or just

'The children have completed neither English nor Science assignment.'

HTH.
