TuitionGoWhere Practice Paper Answer Key — Geography Secondary 1 (Version 5)

Total Marks: 40
Level: Secondary 1
Topic: Map Graph Data Skills

Section A: Map Reading (16 marks)

1. [1 mark] 2765

Teaching note: Grid reference reads EASTING (horizontal, left-to-right) first, then NORTHING (vertical, bottom-to-top). The temple is in square bounded by easting 27 and northing 65, so 2765.
Common mistake: writing 6527 (reversed order).

2. [1 mark] 154705 (or 154704–154706 acceptable)

Method: 4-figure square is 1547. School is near top (north) edge: about 7/10 up → third digit 7; across middle → 0/10 to 1/10 → 0 or 1. 154705 common.
Marking: 1 mark for correct 6-figure format in square 1547.

3. [1 mark] 10 m

From map in Q2 (standard 1:50,000 extract), adjacent contours labelled 10 m apart.
Note: contour interval is difference between neighbouring contour lines, not map scale.

4. [2 marks] 3723

Mark breakdown: 1 mark easting 37, 1 mark northing 23. Forest east of river in square 3723.
Trap: picking west-side square 3525.

5. [3 marks]

A hill (1 mark).
Concentric contour lines with values increasing towards centre (1 mark).
Highest contour 40 m, steep/close spacing optional (1 mark).
Teaching: closed loops = hill or depression; increasing in = hill.

6. [1 mark] 4455

Bridge symbol in square 4455.

7. [3 marks]

Step 1: Grid difference: easting 44–15 = 29; northing 55–47 = 8 (in grid units of 1 km at 1:50,000 since 1 square = 1 km).
Step 2: Distance = √(29² + 8²) = √(841+64)=√905 ≈ 30.1 grid units.
Step 3: At 1:50,000, 1 grid square = 1 km → ≈ 30.1 km.
Marks: 1 for Δeasting/Δnorthing, 1 for Pythagoras, 1 for final ~30 km.
Common error: forgetting square root or using cm.

8. [3 marks]

Reservoir (1546) is SOUTH of school (1547) because northing 46 < 47 (1 mark).
Slightly WEST if same easting 15 (1 mark).
Therefore south (or south-west) (1 mark).
Teaching: lower northing = south.

Section B: Graph & Table Skills (12 marks)

9. [1 mark] Jupiter (95 moons)

From table, scan "Number of Moons" column max = 95.

10. [3 marks]

Generally, planets farther from Sun have more moons (1 mark).
Mercury/Venus (close) have 0; Jupiter (far) has 95 (1 mark with evidence).
Exception not needed but pattern stated (1 mark).
Teaching: describe pattern not just points.

11. [1 mark] November (280 mm)

12. [2 marks]

Sum values: e.g. Jan 120+Feb 40+Mar 90+Apr 130+May 160+Jun 180+Jul 190+Aug 170+Sep 140+Oct 200+Nov 280+Dec 210 = 1910 mm.
1 mark for correct addition, 1 mark for unit (mm).
(Exact total depends on fig; use stated bars.)

13. [3 marks]

Country A decreased from 160 to 140 L/person/day (1 mark).
Country B increased from 120 to 130 L (1 mark).
Opposite trends: A conservation, B rise (1 mark).
Evidence from Figure C required.

14. [2 marks]

Site 1 (forest stream) healthier (1 mark).
Reason: higher dissolved oxygen 8.0 > 4.5 and lower turbidity 2 < 15 (1 mark, data cited).

Section C: Integrated (12 marks)

15. [2 marks] Any two from: river, grid lines, easting/northing labels, open land (1 each). Must be in 2765.

16. [2 marks]

Hill rises to 40 m above surroundings (1 mark).
Clear view over lower land (1 mark).
Teaching: elevation gives vantage.

17. [2 marks]

Valley 27°C warmer than hilltop 24°C (1 mark).
Difference 3°C, likely cold air sinks to valley or heat retention (1 mark).
(Syllabus: simple observation, no deep meteorology needed.)

18. [1 mark] Domestic (45%)

19. [2 marks]

Industry 30% of 360° = 0.30 × 360 = 108° (1 mark calc, 1 mark unit).
Teaching: pie full circle 360°.

20. [3 marks]

Statement incorrect (1 mark).
Mercury/Venus close but 0 moons; Jupiter far with 95 (1 mark evidence).
Therefore distance not cause of moon count (1 mark).
Teaching: use data to reject claim.
