Instructions:
1. Read carefully the instructions on the Multiple-Choice Answer Sheet and fill in the information required
in the spaces provided.
2. All questions carry equal marks.
3. Answer ALL questions. You are advised to use an HB pencil to mark all the answers on the Multiple-
Choice Answer Sheet, so that wrong marks can be completely erased with a clean rubber. You must
mark the answers clearly; otherwise, you will lose marks if the answers cannot be captured.
4. You should mark only ONE answer for each question. If you mark more than one answer, you will
receive NO MARKS for that question.
DO NOT TURN OVER UNTIL YOU ARE TOLD TO DO SO.
