Ok MUET July paper is over.. and so many have written in for the reading answers. I was away
this weekend but am now at the office, staring at the questions. Do remember that these are my
personal answers, as MPM will not be releasing the actual answers for some time.

living)

In 2011, the number of cases was higher among men (320) than women (150)
although women performed more (3) activities Complete office work, Attend
meetings, and Attend to children compared to men who performed 2 activities,
Complete office work, and Meet clients (34)
An extra activity Attend meetings increased the number of cases among men to
380 while giving up Attend meetings reduced cases among women to 100 in 2012.
(25)
Although men performed the same 3 activities in 2013, cases rose to 450. This
figure further shot up to its highest (600) in 2014 when activities increased to
include a fourth Manage staff problems. (32)
As the activities performed by women in 2013 and 2014 were the same 2
Complete office work and Attend to children, the number of cases also remained
the same at 100 as in 2012. (30)
The number of cases declined for both sexes to 500 (men) and 80 (women) in 2015
as they did one less activity each men (3) and women (Attend to children) only.

Reading Mac 2016 answer (reading)
Long awaited, I'm sure. First there was the school holidays and then I only just today got a
hardcopy of the exam as my students are not taking this March exam. Anyway, I have cross
checked with a fellow friend and we only have minor differences. Below are my answers, NOT
MPM's. I'm curious to find out how come the tabulation of the first 7 questions has no 'A' and 2
'B's and soooo many 'C's (5!)... I wonder if anyone can enlighten me on this? Feel free to contact
me.
Here is a link to the scanned Reading paper. Try it before checking answers! (Reading Mac
2016)
