I suppose it is difficult to find a comprehensive S/T that covers every possible type of question. The exam papers are becoming more challenging and teachers are increasingly trying to vary the questions, because most students can do the easy ones. <br /><br />My suggestion is to look up the exceptions in a complete grammar guide book or an online grammar resource. You could also try looking at the secondary English assessment books. Perhaps the exceptions are not from the primary school syllabus but from lower secondary material.<p></p>]]></description><link>https://forum.kiasuparents.com/post/942156</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://forum.kiasuparents.com/post/942156</guid><dc:creator><![CDATA[Mdm Koh]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Sun, 20 Jan 2013 05:03:52 GMT</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Reply to Synthesis and Transformation books for P6 on Sat, 19 Jan 2013 14:15:22 GMT]]></title><description><![CDATA[<p></p><blockquote><b>Mdm Koh:</b><blockquote style="border:1px solid black"><blockquote><b>ngl2010:</b><p>When we asked our DS to do these assessment books, there are some questions we could not explain why the answer is like that.
