The question mentioned liquid filling and this is P6 level science. So my guess will be liquid filling expanded.

Air expand. Air expand more than liquid plus liquid evaporated when heated.

I think its a MCQ question.[/quote]My girl thinks that it is liquid expanding. The question provided a picture of a bun with the liquid flowing out via a hole near the top of the bun, so she believes that it is the liquid that expanded and flowed out of the bun. Her logic is that if it is the air that expanded, then the air would come out through the hole, rather than the liquid. Although the syllabus does teach that all matter can expand when heated, she is not aware that air expands more than liquid.

Sounds like the MCQ is tricky with a lot of close answers! Probably it is deceptively easy and not really easy.

The AL system may throw up some surprises in terms of AL COP for the top IP schools because this new system will disadvantage students with 1 or 2 weaker subjects. where in the past, this group will be able to use their super-strong subjects to pull up their overall t-score to get into IP schools of their choice.

On the other hand, students who now score an average of 85-92 on every subject may end up with AL4 or AL5 (with a bit of luck of course). where in the past, this group of students may not see themselves as suitable for Top IP school or may think they have a low chance of getting into one due to possible fluctuation in T-score COP.

Having said that, I am sure students who belong to the 1st group are likely to have secured a CO via DSA using their super-strong subject be it in Math Science or Language.

For this reason, I believe the academic profile of students going into these IP schools under S1 posting may be different this year and we may see some changes in AL COP. e.g. Indicative AL COP for MGS (IP) may be AL6 for 2020, however for 2021, AL6 students may end up flocking to RGS since both schools have similar indicative AL COP and there are likely to be more vacancies at RGS as compared to MGS (4 classes). (this is just one possible point of view)

Since this is the first time S1 posting is conducted under AL system, the only reference parents have right now is the indicative AL COP based on 2020. Without sufficient historical AL COP pattern, it will be difficult for parents to make any meaningful predictions. For top IP schools, they still be on top due to their prestige and brand power to draw top scorers in the cohort.

Considering the anxiety among parents, I do feel that MOE should perhaps disclose additional information on top of the indicative AL COP for every secondary school. e.g Such as what percentage of 2020 intakes falls within the AL COP band?

E,g, RGS 2020 AL COP is AL6. If RGS can reveal how many students in their 2020 cohort falls within the AL6 band it will be easier for parents to assess their chance.

e.g If 40%, then we know that AL6 will have a high chance. On the other hand, if it is only 5-10%, then AL6 will have a high risk.

I agree, when I signed up for the ST webinar, my question to Mr Sng was: \"what would have been the percentage or number of 2020 PSLE students who would have scored AL 4 or 5 under the new system and how many of that would have gotten into the IP schools. If my child scores AL 7 or 8, what are her chances of getting into an IP school?\"

Considering that there could probably be more DSA applicants this year and it is unknown whether the schools would take in more students via the DSA route compared to previous years, there could be lesser spaces available for the non-DSA students. Coupled that with IP students scoring in the range of AL4 or 5 (or AL6), I am also wondering how many spaces would be left for those scoring above that. I am not looking at the RI/RGS/HI/NYGH kind of schools but the other IP schools.

我认为应该没问题。慷慨应该也会被接受。

谢谢您！

Do we have any idea whether schools took in more DSA students this year such that it’s above the typical 30% leaving less spaces for non-DSA students? I think there would be more DSA applications this year due to the uncertainty with the new AL system but just wondering if schools would also take in more, or just stick to the 30% value?

唉，谢谢您。我也是觉得是有信用可是我女儿不会写 😅

陈老师，请问您。Comprehension是说一个卖花阿姨答应小男孩每年教师节会送花给帮助小男孩的一位老师。


最后那题，如果我女儿写“我认为阿姨是个诚恳的人因为她保证小男孩她每年教师节会送花给老师，她就会做到”， 这样可以吗？会那几分？

谢谢！

陈老师
请问“异口同声”的用法是哪一个？谢谢

A) 小红做事很细心，大家异口同声地选她为班长。（类似）

B) 合唱团异口同声地唱着歌。（类似）

(C) ...讨论...（不清楚内容）

Burp123,

异口同声强调的是大家的说法或意见相同，所以肯定不是 B。根据您列出的大概选项，答案应该是 A （如果句子内容是老师让大家选出班长人选时，大家都说出她的名字）。

我女儿说另外选择答案是

3）老师讲课时， 我们不应该异口同声地说话。
4）我们异口同声地讨论今天要看什么电影。

The order of the answers is different from the paper.

Thanks for sharing.
My son's answer is 6, and ratio is 2 : 3.

there might many ways to draw the triangle. They might still have the same perimeter but different area so it might depend on the triangle drawn[/quote]My girl can't remember the exact question but she remembered that it was asking for an isosceles triangle and there was a line given for the triangle. So the line can either form the base of the isosceles triangle or one of the two equal sides of the triangle. So possibly only 2 ways to draw the triangle, leading to two possible answers? 🤷🏻‍️
