At least, read the text 3 TIMES before you begin writing your final
answers. Take notes, underline words, etc. Don’t panic if you do not understand
one word. You must understand the main idea of the text, not each and every
single word.
Answer questions 1 -4 according to the information given in the text. USE YOUR
OWN WORDS. DO NOT COPY FROM THE TEXT. (4 marks)
1. Make sure you use your own words. It is easier than it seems. You mainly
have to REWRITE the sentence in the text using another similar structure.
2. Please, do not copy LITERALLY from the text. You can take a couple of
words though.
4. Give ALL the information required. Look for it very carefully. Take your
time.
Are these statements True or False? Justify your answers based on information
from the text, rewriting the original sentences in your own way, or, at least,
quoting properly. (2 marks)
1. Think about the INTRODUCTORY SENTENCES you are using: DON’T USE
THE SAME FOR BOTH SENTENCES GIVEN!
This statement is …. because/as it is said in the text (in lines ….) , “…”
This statement is …. because/as we can read in the text (in lines ….) , “…”
This statement is …. because/as it is mentioned in the text (in lines ….) :“…”
This statement is …. because/as it is stated in the text (in lines ….) :“…”
YOU HAVE MANY OPTIONS: CHOOSE 2 and memorize them if you want.
- Basic one you can find the evidence and quote it from the text using
the appropriate punctuation marks:
: “…“ OR , “…”
(Make sure you include the necessary evidence. If it is too long, you could omit
ONLY THE UNNECESSARY information this way (…)
If you are quoting the evidence, make sure you copy it correctly! Check spelling
mistakes!
1. Before writing anything, think carefully about the topic and organize your
ideas (an outline, schema…). Use only those good ideas you can properly
explain.
4. Connect your ideas using linkers. This cannot look like a list of unrelated
ideas nor like a “linker salad” (meaning, do not use 5 connectors in a
sentence)
5. Try to use at least once each of the structures you have learnt in class
(one passive, one reported speech, one conditional, modal verbs, …).
7. Be clean and mind your handwriting. This is a writing exam, not an Egyptian
jerogliphic.
8. When you have finished it, relax for 5 minutes. Then, read your
composition again and try to find any mistake (mainly those you usually
had in class)
