lnjason888,


For your composition classes, will the students be writing composition in class? Do you also conduct lesson for comprehension?

Thanks

Hi, does anyone know the marking scheme of the comprehension? Looking at my dc’s practice and exam papers, I noticed that certain 3 or 4 marks questions were given very low marks although the answers were quite closed to the model answers. TIA.

Hi, I do not know about the marking scheme for PSLE Comprehension but chance upon the above past year paper where there is a breakdown of how the teachers gave the marks. Very tough

RhDk:

I would like to find news/magazine articles to expose my son to read on a daily basis. Is there any recommendation on when I can get a daily dose of such articles?

I am not so sure about magazine, but for news, you can go to the straits time link http://www.straitstimes.com/ or http://www.todayonline.com/, or you can get hardcopy newspapers at any retail stores.

Are there any useful strategies for 短文填空?

This is one segment that my potato boy keeps losing marks. I am able to help him in other segments except this, as his Chinese vocabulary is not strong.

Thanks in advance…

PSLEstress:

difference and how to use

1） \"的“ and \"地”？
2）“竟然” and \"居然“？

Hi PSLEstress,
1) 的 precedes nouns
敬爱的总理、慈祥的老人、戴帽子的男孩、珍贵的教科书、鸟的天堂、伟大的祖国、有趣的情节、
优雅的环境、可疑的情况、团结友爱的集体、他的妈妈、可爱的花儿、谁的橡皮、清清的河水

地 precedes verbs/actions
高声地喊、愉快地唱、拼命地逃、疯狂地咒骂、严密地注视、一次又一次地握手、迅速地包围、
沙沙地直响、斩钉截铁地说、从容不迫地申述、用力地踢、仔细地看、开心地笑笑

用法口诀
左边白，右边勺，名词跟在后面跑。
美丽的花儿绽笑脸，青青的草儿弯下腰，
清清的河水向东流，蓝蓝的天上白云飘，
暖暖的风儿轻轻吹，绿绿的树叶把头摇，
小小的鱼儿水中游，红红的太阳当空照，

左边土，右边也，地字站在动词前，
认真地做操不马虎，专心地上课不大意，
大声地朗读不害羞，从容地走路不着急，
痛快地玩耍来放松，用心地思考解难题，
勤奋地学习要积极，辛勤地劳动花力气，
http://zhidao.baidu.com/question/358066053.html

2) 竟然 和 居然
Both are adverbs; meaning unexpectedly (出乎意料)
居然 is more emphatic (语气略重)

例句：
今天聚会你居然不到。
这么重要的事，你居然忘了。”
你居然来了！(nuance: 我不希望你来，你厚着脸皮来了)
你竟然来了！(nuance: 我本来希望你来，但没想到你真来了)

Will update when I find more examples of 竟然 & 居然. Hope this helps.
