| Jan | 1200 |
| Feb | 1500 |
| Mar | 1800 |
| Apr | 1400 |
State the month with the highest visitor number. [1]
3. A bar chart shows the population of five towns: P (20 000), Q (35 000), R (15 000), S (40 000), T (25 000). Which town has the smallest population? [1]
4. The students measured noise level (dB) at three sites: Road (85), Park (55), Market (75). Suggest one suitable graph to compare these values and give a reason. [2]
5. Study the map below.
Image pending generation: map for Q5.
State the direction of Y from X. [1]
6. The students collected the number of cars counted per hour at two locations (Bridge: 45, Tunnel: 60). Describe how this could be shown on one graph. [2]
7. A line graph shows rainfall (mm) over 6 months: 100, 120, 90, 110, 130, 95. Calculate the mean rainfall. [2]
8. Study the photograph description: "A wide sandy beach with a gentle slope, backed by a low cliff." Name one map symbol that could show the cliff on a topo map. [1]
Section B: Statistical Analysis and Graph Reading (Questions 9–14) [18 marks]
9. Study Table 1 showing wind speed (km/h) at 5 stations.
| Station | Wind speed |
|---|---|
| A | 10 |
| B | 15 |
| C | 12 |
| D | 18 |
| E | 20 |
Calculate the range of wind speed. [2]
10. Using the data in Q9, calculate the mean wind speed. [2]
11. Study the graph below.
Image pending generation: graph for Q11.
State which city has the greater temperature range. [1]
12. For the graph in Q11, describe the trend of City M from 0 to 12 hours. [2]
13. A fieldwork table shows amenity ratings by 30 students using scale: Strongly Agree (+2), Agree (+1), Disagree (−1), Strongly Disagree (−2). For "Park": 10 SA, 5 A, 10 D, 5 SD. Describe how to calculate the net score. [3]
14. Using the data in Q13, calculate the net score for Park. [2]
15. Study the scatter plot below.
Image pending generation: graph for Q15.
Describe the relationship between distance and air quality. [2]
Section C: Evaluation and Application (Questions 16–20) [16 marks]
16. A class tested hypothesis: "Traffic volume decreases with distance from school." They counted cars at 5 sites (50m, 100m, 200m, 400m, 800m) once at 8am on a weekday. Evaluate the reliability of this data collection. [4]
17. Explain how GIS could be used to map flood risk in a town. Give one advantage and one limitation. [5]
18. Study the map extract.
Image pending generation: map for Q18.
Describe the relief around the school. [2]
19. The students used a pie chart to show land use: Residential 40%, Commercial 25%, Green 20%, Other 15%. State one problem with using this to show change over time. [2]
20. A table shows temperature and rainfall for 4 months. Suggest how to present both variables together on one graph and justify. [3]

TuitionGoWhere Practice Paper Answer Key — Version 1
Subject: Geography O-Level
Topic: Map, Graph & Data Skills
Total Marks: 50
Section A Answers (16 marks)
Q1 [3]
Answer: Use a line graph or grouped bar chart with x-axis as months and y-axis as temperature (°C); plot four lines (one per station) or grouped bars; include legend A–D.
Teaching: One combined graph compares stations. Line graph shows trend; bar compares values. Must label axes, units, legend.
Mark breakdown: 1 for graph type, 1 for axes/labeling, 1 for legend/multiple stations.
Q2 [1]
Answer: March (1800).
Teaching: Highest value in table is March.
Q3 [1]
Answer: R (15 000).
Teaching: Smallest bar/value is R.
Q4 [2]
Answer: Bar chart; reason: compares discrete site values clearly.
Mark: 1 graph, 1 reason.
Q5 [1]
Answer: South (Y is below X on map; X north coast, Y centre).
Teaching: Map shows X at north, Y centre → Y is south of X.
Q6 [2]
Answer: Bar chart with two bars (Bridge, Tunnel) on x-axis, cars/hour on y-axis.
Mark: 1 type, 1 labeling.
Q7 [2]
Mean = (100+120+90+110+130+95)/6 = 645/6 = 107.5 mm.
Teaching: Sum ÷ count.
Q8 [1]
Answer: Cliff symbol (short ticks on contour or specific topo cliff symbol).
Teaching: Topo maps use symbol for cliffs.
Section B Answers (18 marks)
Q9 [2]
Range = max − min = 20 − 10 = 10 km/h.
Teaching: Range shows spread.
Q10 [2]
Mean = (10+15+12+18+20)/5 = 75/5 = 15 km/h.
Q11 [1]
Answer: City M (range 24–32 = 8 vs N = 0).
Q12 [2]
Answer: Temperature increases steadily from 24°C to 32°C over 12 hours.
Mark: 1 increase, 1 from-to values.
Q13 [3]
Method: Net = (10×2)+(5×1)+(10×−1)+(5×−2). Assign weights, multiply by freq, sum.
Mark: 1 weights, 1 multiply, 1 sum.
Q14 [2]
Net = 20+5−10−10 = 5.
Teaching: Positive score 25, negative 20, net 5.
Q15 [2]
Answer: Negative correlation – air quality improves (index lower) as distance increases.
Mark: 1 direction, 1 interpretation.
Section C Answers (16 marks)
Q16 [4]
Answer: Partially reliable. Strengths: systematic distances, clear variable. Weakness: only one day/time, weather/traffic variation ignored, no repeat. Counter: weekday 8am typical but not comprehensive.
Mark: 1 position, 2 evidence, 1 qualifier.
Q17 [5]
Answer: GIS overlays elevation, drainage, land use to show risk zones. Adv: visual, fast. Lim: needs data, cost.
Mark: 2 use, 1 adv, 1 lim, 1 clarity.
Q18 [2]
Answer: Gentle slopes (10–30m contours close), school on 20m mid-slope.
Mark: 1 relief, 1 site.
Q19 [2]
Answer: Pie chart can't show time change; only proportions at one time.
Mark: 1 problem, 1 explain.
Q20 [3]
Answer: Dual-axis graph: bars rainfall, line temp; justify comparison.
Mark: 1 type, 1 axes, 1 justify.
