Dear 5F,

Good day to you!

Let's practise a variety of questions today.

This website is a bit outdated so you would need to write your answers on a piece of paper and then click on the answer box (after doing the questions) to check your answers. However, the questions are still relevant and useful. Try to do all the components.

Try this Comprehension text (mcq) about Seat Belts. [Answers]

Try this Comprehension text (mcq) about Amelia Earhart.

Study hard! Have a great day!

Here is a poem to spur you to study hard. Enjoy...

In all you do, do it well, do it right and do it smart.

The road to success is a long and arduous journey.

But the one who chooses perseverance over rest, diligence over play and determination over regret,

Will reach his goal and win the day.


May all of you be the winner at the end of the day, dear 5F.
