March 2012 MUET Reading 800/3 answers

Here are my answers, I'm doing this as I save online, so you'll hv to be patient while I double check my own answers.

1. B (25 topics in total)
2. C (No evidence of media type)
3. B (Can be disproved by mention of UK, Asia Pacific Region etc.)
4. A (refer to linegraph)
5. B (shifted away from pro n anti to more balanced style)
6. B (revised answer: confirmed vs believed)
7. B (adult issue only)
8. B (nearly half, not all)
9. A (yes, refers to sedentary lifestyle)
10. A (yes, get up every half hr)
11. C (moving helps remove wastes)
12. A (contrary to popular belief...)
13. A (cause aching)
14. A (best choice although I think it's still questionable cos they said lying, but not lying for hours until ur back aches for lack of movement)
15. A (to show the huge difference/extent between the two scenarios)
16. C (pollution is a logical answer but NOT explicitly stated in the text)
17. B (main point is that there is not enough protection of the sea)
18. B (ridiculous way to restore fish stocks)
19. C (aquaculture)
20. C (increase fivefold by 2010)
21. C (negative note as there will be no fish left except in history class)
22. A (no dearth means no limit to the amount of advice, hence it can fill volumes)
23. B (unreliable variants)
24. B (A is definitely wrong, I agree with B because the results can be trusted and I disagree with C because there is no specific definition for 'right' as in who's right is really right?)
25. B (def not C, A could be right but I'm leaning towards the word 'inconclusive' because it stated that it 'has not been confirmed' and 'no one knows')
26. B (be skeptical)
27. C (bury = hide the truth = dishonest)
28. C (not hopeless)
29. B (explosion of knowledge based on more studies)
30. A (man has manipulated them for thousands of years)
31. C (the two are similar, hence can be seen as an extension)
32. D (no different in principle = similarities between the two)
33. D (quantum leap means a huge jump ahead = major advancement in this field)
34. C (definitely not A & B, so if u answered C or D it would b a better bet)
35. C (by giving examples)
36. D (no change from past to future)
37. B (I think he was quite neutral, just explaining the facts, but it could be A as well, however, did he really criticize or just describe his points?)
38. A (she reflected on her past)
39. B (I dont think she was stingy, and no mention of not educated or talkative/hardworking)
40. D (sounds of clicking)
41. C (def not A cos she didnt feel like she was poor, n wasnt just about food or their flat)
42. A (awe because he managed to cure someone that American doctors)
43. D (no explanation needed, hahahaha)
44. A (shocking!)
45. A (the first reflection showed the child was IMpatient, crying n demanding the salted plums )


So guys, anything to trash out? :P How did you score?

If you want your marks for this component:
your score x 120 / 45
example 30 x 120 / 45 = 80/120.

If you want a prediction of your band:
your score x 300 / 45
example 30 x 300 /45 = 200/300 (Band 4)
*it's just a prediction ok.. cos it obviously doesnt reflect your performance in the other papers)
Band 1: 0 - 99
Band 2: 100 - 139
Band 3: 140 - 179
Band 4: 180 - 219
Band 5: 220 - 259
Band 6: 260 - 300

Thanks for being patient and staying tuned to my blog! God bless u all.. Now someone please upload the report and essay questions and I will write a sample. Cheers! 9

    ReplyDelete
    Replies
    1. i chose B..quite tricky because it does not state the period of sitting
      A(line 35-36)you are lying longer(relax),but you don't feel bad to your backs( there is no worse for your back)- i think this is true
      B(line 23-24)encourage us to be static means encourage us to sit longer. so, B does not state about sitting period. I think it is wrong

      Delete

  16. Dear Mrs. Audrey,
    In question 6, "One human death of new variant CJD 'WAS CONFIRMED' ...". However, in the passage paragraph 3, line 14, it says "THIS IS BELIEVED to have been contracted...". So, should the answer be false as the question contradicts with the statement given?

    ReplyDelete
    Replies
    1. I absolutely agree that the answer should be false since the term used in the text and the term used in the question are different.

      Delete
    2. yes..i also answered false bcoz of the contradiction in using da word

      Delete
  17. Replies

    5. I chose A, answer is direct stated at line 14-15

      Delete
    6. As p2p said, It stated "believed" BUT not "confirmed'

      Delete
    7. i choose false too becoz it said “believe”...

      Delete
    8. i choose A ..it should be true ^^

      Delete
  18. I chose A too. Actually both have the same meaning.

    ReplyDelete
  19. Q6,is it too much activity(A) is the answer??i have chosen inactivity(C)...someone can explain to me why?

    ReplyDelete
    Replies
    1. "Contrary to popular belief,most back injuries happen due to inactivity,RATHER THAN EXCESSIVE ACTIVITY". So actually the popular belief is about excessive activity(too much activities) can cause back injuries.

      Delete
  20. "quantum leaps" means what? someone please?

    ReplyDelete
  21. ms audrey, where's the rest of the ans :P

    ReplyDelete
  22. i think 'quantum leaps' means 'major shift'..

    ReplyDelete
  23. but i think quantum leaps is major advancement...

    ReplyDelete
  24. leap means jump or shift or transition.. so i think the most likely answer is A.. hmmmm~

    ReplyDelete
  25. according to longman dictionary, quantum leap means improvement... so, it is the same as advancement i think....

    ReplyDelete
  26. Miss audrey can you please update the answers as soon as possible? :)

    1. can someone pls explain about Q1 & Q5?

      Delete
  33. For Q10, what is the evidence of the answer is A? I chose C as I culdnt find any points relating with the q.

    For Q15, I think it is either A or B, as B can also be true as Malaysia faced the prospect of ... in the next 20 years. It does not happened yet.

    For Q21, i think it is B as cautious means showing careful forethought (" If things go ....)

    For Q30, i think it is A as it is clearly stated in first sentence

    For Q36, can someone enlighten me pls. I chose C

    For Q38, i think it is C (I was six when my mother)

    Do you guys agree with me?

    Love, xoxo
