SBQ all the question change liaoz.
change to thinking question.
no more straightforward. -
I just came back taking.
The questions were asked in a total different way.
Take for example. Question 4b.
Normally the questions would be asked in this way.
"What are the measures that the government haven taken to encourage creative and critical thinking in school."
But this time round ask.
"Why was it necessary for the government to encourage creative and critical thinking in school."
I was like. Holy cow.
Got to infer and think quite alot through out the paper.
The SBQ was rather werid to.
I dont think i did too well.
Now i just hope everyone did badly as well and hopefully marks will be moderated. -

I think the source base question (C) very confusing man.
Source C: a comment by a Chinese journalist, taken from a book that criticises the building of the dam, published in 1999.
"By building the dam, the flow of the Yangtze River will sow down. This will cause pollution from industrial and residential areas to stay in the river, rather than be washed out to sea. The result will be a poisoned river.
Source D: information on the Three Gorges Project released in the united states of America by the Chinese government.
"The most important feature of the Three Gorges Project is that the lives of the people in the area will be improved. The main benefit of the project is flood control. In the past, the population suffered tremendous losses both in human lives and property because of the floods. Currently, 15 million people and 1.6 million hectares of land along sections of the yangtze River are seriously threatened by flooding. Once the project is completed, the dam can stop most floods from happening. Other benefits include the generation of electricity and easier passage for ships.
Question : Study Sources C and D
Is one of these sources more believable than the other as evidence about the effects of the dam? Explain your answer.
I only answered the provenence part man. Too confusing, when i saw this question i just literally flipped to the essays. Done this in the last 10 minutes. -

1: First must check reliability.
2: Compare the difference.
3: Conclude which one is more believable and Why.
For this one i did one full page.
In fact the whole entire answer sheet i use finish every single page. -
Tmr english.
Good luck everyone.
I ISH WANT A1! *Proceeds to Speaker's Corner and highlight all the bombastic vocab* -
The damn construction one was easy enough.
Did ireland, last sentence no time to finish -
I know that one of them is the government and the other one is just merely a commoner. Thus the government's word should be more reliable because he holds a higher authority and he most likely cannot lie . However then again, He most likely WILL ALSO LIE(contradicting man i know) because the fact that the government is on the more superior side[The ones that are not suffering] and that the commoner is the one that has suffered made the source a very bias one.
-
I say because source C more reliable as the enviromental issue he mentioned are true. And its already happening liao. But then source A its just their prediction of what will happen after the dam is built. And there is no solid evidence. Thus is not reliable.
Then i also use your point saying cause source D is from a china government. And its very likely that he will support his own doings. Thus not reliable.
Then i cross reference from soure E say "source E also say this". Thus is futhurmore support what source C says. -
wah. wad sku u in ??

stupid yangtze river....
-
I wrote source d more believable.
Since its government issue to another powerful nation.
while source c is a statement lifted from a book.
as information travels from a source to another, bound to have differences.
then ah erm ah erm ah erm.... -
