Sec 1 guide books and other stuff for sec 1s. @ 4:13 AM
Please take note that the books should be in by next week. The bookstore keeper is currently trying to remove the GST for you all, so does who paid extra for the GSTwill get a refund if he manages to get the discount.Sorry for not writing lately, been really busy and sick with flu too. Anyway, given how you all are not comfortable with map reading, I am going to go through it nearing the mid year exam.
For photograph interpretation, here are some ground rules:
1. Only landscape and aerial photos taken at an angle can be splitted into 3 parts: Foreround, midground and background. Be aware of your perception, things further from you are always smaller.
2. Describe what you can see and identify. Do not describe something you cannot see clearly or explain clearly, especially in satellite photos.
3. If you are not sure but you want to explain a weak point across, provide a good argument. For example, you see a man standing on the roadside, you can suggest that the man can be crossing the road or you can say he is waiting for a cab. A weak point is when you say he is waiting for someone. To put your point across, a good argument could be is he is not looking at the oncoming traffic, so he could be waiting for someone. That is how you can score more.
