i guess it's no interest. He always complained that it's boring and all his friends do not like chinese too.

if your child is the outgoing type, maybe could try those chinese enrichment classes that do speech and drama to cultivate his interest. In eduplus, they have classes under \"story island\" banner which let the children present the stories that they have read. I think it will make it interesting for the child as I have seen the P1s perform and they all seem to love it. Even the quiet ones will \"open up\" in the end.

Well no matter how good the tuition center is,i think that it is the attitude towards studying.Maybe you can tell him the paradise of Sec School.When i heard about the facilities in Sec School,it really spurred me on to study harder as i want to get into that particular school.

Hmmm i don't know about this question but i have a strong feeling that it is lived.Because they say before and that is past tense....So,ya

I am really praying that i can get into either Swiss Cottage or Commonwealth.When i haven’t took my PSLE,i didn’t know that Sec Schools have so many good things in it.If i had known,i would stretch my studying hours.Now i must pray hard.Hope that a miracle will happen.But what has been done has been done,what can i do?

One of my suggestions for the decomposition question was to put the jar in a dark room and my reason was that it would allow more decomposers to come into the jar, thus speeding up decomposition.

Can someone tell me if this is acceptable

You are half right and half wrong. I also said that should put it in a dark place, but not to attract decomposers nor allowing more of them go into the jar. This will reduce the rate of evaporation of the moisture from the moist leaves, hence more moisture is kept, as decomposers need water to decompose dead organisms, this would speed up decomposition.

I don't really know whether this is correct or not but i decide to play safe by not putting that the dark is a factor in resulting the speed of the decomposition.

ZoeyTan:

i think my answers are totally wrong....

could u all see whether it is acceptable?

My answer: he should water the plant daily as with more moisture,decomposition can take place faster.

he could increase the number of holes at the lid so that more oxygen could enter the bin. with more oxygen, the rate of decomposition will be higher.

(i felt that it is totally wrong)....

another thing...about the forest one..what he is thirsty then the plants and fruits could nt be eaten that one... i wrote he could cover the leaves of the plant with the plastic sheet using the string.As the plant repire, it gives off water vapour through its stomato. As the water vapour condenses onto the cooler inner surface of the plastic sheet, it will become water droplets. The boy can drink the water droplets..

and another thing ...about the toilet...
i wrote as the plastic bottle occupy space, it will take up some space in the tank, therefore, lesser water is needed to fill up the tank

b) Solid occupies space..(it is wrong?i should write matter right?)

For me i put he can poke more holes into the container allowing decomposition to take place faster and also make the lid of the container out so that bacteria can make decomposition faster

[quote=\"tryunited\"]what is the answer on the MCQ qn on aeroplane, propellor and rubber band, which part(s) has/hv kinetic energy?


wing / propellor / rubber band

i put the option which had all the 3..wing, propellor and ruber band

i thought it should be the propellor only as the rubber band came to a standstill before it went into the air....[/quote]For me i also put all 3.Because i still remember my teacher told me that when something moves,it has kinetic energy even though that object is not a converter of energy.So i think the aeroplane is 4.You should check it out nevertheless i am wrong

I think my earlier answer is wrong. The towel and newspaper is to be used as filter. The answer may be in this link :

http://adventure.howstuffworks.com/survival/wilderness/jungle-survival2.htm

O, oh!

but to filter thru towel means lot of water needs to be collected. say 200 ml atleast. Other wise the towel would soak up most of the water.

newspaper if used as filter may just tear.

hmm...

Yes, we would need subsequent amount of water to filter and there should be water in a jungle because there are trees - implying there is water.

Normal science assessment books always give example of how to collect water in a desert, so we mistaken that this question is based on scenario of \"no water\".

Based on what I gathered from the posting, the question did not state that there is no water, rather there is a need to \"produce\" DRINKABLE water.

The plastic sheet can be folded to form the \"funnel\", the towel can be used to be the coarse filter medium and newspaper acting as the filter paper we use to line the funnel in the lab.[/quote]Wa heng ah i was dumbfounded by that question but luckily i put collect rain water

looksonew123:

I chose gan shou! YES! :roll:

For me i put gan shou also as i don't really understand the passage.I was really dumbfounded at that time but luckily,i manage to pull through the paper.
