| 4 | (c) zebra | The picture shows a horse-shaped animal with black and white stripes. Zebra is the only striped animal among the choices. (a) harimau = tiger (orange with black stripes); (b) kuda = horse (no stripes, usually brown). Key visual cue: black AND white stripes specifically. |
| 5 | (b) oren | The picture shows a round orange-colored fruit with textured skin. Oren = orange (the fruit). (a) limau = lime (smaller, green); (c) kuning = yellow (color, not a fruit name). Note: In Malay, oren refers to the orange fruit; kuning is the color yellow. |

(a) matahari = sun (bright yellow, day time, rays); (c) awan = cloud (fluffy, grey or white, in the sky). Key visual cue: crescent shape + dark background + stars = night scene with moon. |
Section A Total: 10 marks

|---|---|---|
| (i) | A / hujan/awan | The left picture shows a grey cloud with rain drops. Awan = cloud; hujan = rain. Visual cues: fluffy grey shape, drops falling below. Note: Accept either "hujan" or "awan" as both describe the scene; the word box contains "hujan/awan" as combined option. |

Section B Total: 15 marks
Section C: Fill in the Blanks and Simple Writing (Isikan Tempat Kosong dan Menulis Mudah)
15 marks
Question 16 (2 marks)
**Answer: kucing (cat)
Marking scheme:
- 2 marks: Correct word kucing written clearly
- 1 mark: Phonetically close attempt (e.g., "kuceng" — common child spelling variation) with clear understanding of the animal
- 0 marks: Irrelevant word or blank
Explanation: The sentence gives two clues: "seekor" (classifier for animals) and "mengeong" (the sound a cat makes, "meow"). The word box contains four animals:
- kucing = cat (says "meow")
- anjing = dog (says "gonggong" — woof)
- burung = bird (says "cuit cuit" — chirp)
- ikan = fish (no sound, lives in water)
Teaching note: Seekor is the counting word used for animals in Malay (similar to "a" in English but specific to animals). Mengeong is onomatopoeia — the cat's cry. Students should listen for sound clues in comprehension questions.
Common mistake: Writing anjing (dog) — dogs make "gonggong" sound, not "meow."
Question 17 (2 marks)
**Answer: Any one of merah, biru, kuning, or hijau — BUT must make sense contextually
Revised expected answer based on open sentence: biru (blue) — most common shirt color, OR accept any valid with reasonable justification
Note: Since the sentence "Lelaki itu memakai baju __________" is open, any color from the word box is technically acceptable if the student can describe it. However, standard marking:
Acceptable answers:
- merah (red), biru (blue), kuning (yellow), or hijau (green)
Marking scheme:
- 2 marks: Any color word from the box, written correctly and spelled accurately
- 1 mark: Color word from box with minor spelling error but recognizable
- 0 marks: Color not in box, or blank
Explanation: This question tests color vocabulary recognition and spelling. The four colors are:
- merah = red
- biru = blue
- kuning = yellow
- hijau = green
Teaching note: In Malay, colors come after the noun they describe (baju merah = red shirt, literally "shirt red"). This is different from English word order. The sentence structure here follows correct Malay grammar: noun + color descriptor.
Common mistake: Students may try to say "baju hijau" (green shirt) but spell "hijau" as "hiju" — missing the 'a'. Remind students: h-i-j-a-u, 5 letters.
Question 18 (4 marks)
Picture description: A family in a living room — father reading newspaper, mother near kitchen with food, boy playing with toy car, girl coloring.
Expected sentences (examples of acceptable responses):
Sentence 1 (2 marks):
- "Ayah sedang membaca surat khabar." (Father is reading the newspaper.) [2 marks]
- "Ibu berdiri di pintu dapur." (Mother is standing at the kitchen door.) [2 marks]
- "Abang bermain kereta mainan." (Brother is playing with a toy car.) [2 marks]
- "Adik perempuan mewarna dengan pensel warna." (Sister is coloring with crayons.) [2 marks]
Sentence 2 (2 marks):
- Any second different sentence about another family member or activity.
Marking scheme for each sentence:
| Score | Criteria |
|---|---|
| 2 marks | Complete sentence with: correct subject (family member), correct verb/action, correct location/object. Grammar understandable with minor spelling variations. |
| 1 mark | Partial sentence: missing subject OR missing verb OR unclear who is doing what. May have significant spelling errors but meaning discernible. |
| 0 marks | Fragment, single word, or completely unrelated to picture. |
Teaching notes:
- Encourage students to use simple sentence structure: [Subject] + [verb] + [object/location]
- Acceptable family terms: ayah (father), ibu (mother), abang (older brother), kakak (older sister), adik (younger sibling), nenek (grandmother), atuk (grandfather)
- Acceptable action verbs: membaca (reading), berdiri (standing), bermain (playing), mewarna (coloring), memasak (cooking), duduk (sitting)
- The picture shows indoor domestic activities; sentences about going outside would be incorrect.
Common mistakes:
- Confusing surat khabar (newspaper) with buku (book) — the father is reading a newspaper, not a book, in the picture
- Forgetting to include who is doing the action — e.g., just writing "membaca surat khabar" without saying who
Question 19 (4 marks)
Picture description: School canteen during recess — children queuing, vendor serving, children eating, Malay food visible, clock showing 10:00.
Expected sentences (examples of acceptable responses):
Sentence 1 (2 marks):
- "Murid-murid beratur di kantin sekolah." (The students are queuing in the school canteen.) [2 marks]
- "Penjual menjual nasi lemak dan mee goreng." (The vendor is selling nasi lemak and fried noodles.) [2 marks]
- "Jam di dinding menunjukkan pukul 10:00." (The clock on the wall shows 10 o'clock.) [2 marks]
- "Kanak-kanak sedang makan di meja kantin." (The children are eating at the canteen tables.) [2 marks]
Sentence 2 (2 marks):
- Any second different sentence about another aspect of the scene.
Marking scheme for each sentence:
| Score | Criteria |
|---|---|
| 2 marks | Complete sentence with: appropriate subject, correct verb, correct location/time reference. Mentions visible activity in the canteen. Spelling understandable. |
| 1 mark | Partial sentence or mentions canteen but with unclear actors or actions. Some elements correct but incomplete. |
| 0 marks | Sentence unrelated to canteen scene, or blank. |
Teaching notes:
- Key vocabulary for this scene: kantin (canteen), sekolah (school), murid (student), beratur (queuing), makan (eating), minum (drinking), jual (sell), nasi lemak (coconut rice — traditional Malay dish), mee goreng (fried noodles), jam (clock), pukul (o'clock), rehat (recess/break)
- Time reference: pukul 10:00 or 10 pagi (10 a.m.) indicates morning recess time
- The scene shows multiple activities; encourage students to describe different things, not repeat the same sentence
Common mistakes:
- Writing about classroom activities instead of canteen — remind students to look at WHERE the scene takes place
- Confusing kantin with kelas (classroom) or tandas (toilet)
- Forgetting the food context — nasi lemak and mee goreng are specifically Malay/Singaporean foods visible in the image
Question 20 (4 marks)
Picture description: Children in playground — boy on swing, girl on slide, two on seesaw, one running with kite, trees and flowers, sunny day.
Sentence with "suka" (2 marks):
Expected responses:
- "Saya suka bermain di taman permainan." (I like to play in the playground.) [2 marks]
- "Budak lelaki itu suka bermain buaian." (The boy likes to play on the swing.) [2 marks]
- "Kawan-kawan saya suka bermain di taman." (My friends like to play in the park.) [2 marks]
- "Adik perempuan suka meluncur." (The sister likes to slide.) [2 marks]
Marking scheme:
| Score | Criteria |
|---|---|
| 2 marks | Correct use of suka with appropriate verb/activity, grammatically correct sentence, relevant to picture. Subject + suka + verb/activity pattern. |
| 1 mark | Suka used but with incomplete sentence, wrong verb form, or slightly off-context. |
| 0 marks | Suka not used, or completely unrelated. |
Teaching note: Suka = "like/love to" — in Malay, it is followed directly by a verb (without "to" as in English): suka makan = like to eat, suka bermain = like to play, suka membaca = like to read.
Sentence with "dan" (2 marks):
Expected responses:
- "Ada buaian dan gelongsor di taman permainan." (There is a swing and a slide in the playground.) [2 marks]
- "Budak lelaki dan budak perempuan bermain bersama." (The boy and girl are playing together.) [2 marks]
- "Saya nampak bunga dan pokok di taman." (I see flowers and trees in the park.) [2 marks]
- "Murid ini dan murid itu bermain guli." (This student and that student are playing marbles.) [2 marks]
Marking scheme:
| Score | Criteria |
|---|---|
| 2 marks | Correct use of dan to join two nouns, two phrases, or two clauses. Grammatically correct. Relevant to picture. |
| 1 mark | Dan used but sentence incomplete, or joins inappropriate elements, or minor grammar issues. |
| 0 marks | Dan not used, or completely unrelated. |
Teaching note: Dan = "and" — used to connect equal elements (nouns with nouns, verbs with verbs, clauses with clauses). Common structures: [noun] dan [noun], [verb phrase] dan [verb phrase].
Common mistakes for both sentences:
- Using suka with noun instead of verb: "Saya suka buaian" (I like swings) — grammatically acceptable in Malay but less preferred than "Saya suka bermain buaian"
- Using dan to start a sentence — dan should connect within a sentence, not begin one
- Writing "dan" as "dn" or "den" — remind students: d-a-n
