‘END OF PAPER’ after the last question.
3.
All questions carry equal marks.
4.
ANSWER ALL QUESTIONS. You are advised to use an HB pencil to mark all the answers on the
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.
5.
You should mark only ONE answer for each question. If you mark more than one answer, you will
receive NO MARKS for that question.
6.
No marks will be deducted for wrong answers.
