03 Answers and one-line notes
| # | Answer | One-line note |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | an | Apple begins with a vowel sound, so an is used. |
| 2 | an | Elephant starts with a vowel sound, so the singular countable noun takes an. |
| 3 | The | A one-of-a-kind thing such as the sun takes the. |
| 4 | some | Information is uncountable, so a positive sentence uses some. |
| 5 | many | Chairs is a countable plural, so the negative takes many. |
| 6 | a little | Milk is uncountable, and a small amount takes a little. |
| 7 | He gave me a useful book. | Useful starts with the consonant sound /j/, so a is correct. |
| 8 | an | The h in honest is silent, so the word starts with a vowel sound and takes an. |
| 9 | I have much homework today. | Homework is uncountable, so much is used instead of many. |
| 10 | a | University starts with the /j/ sound, so a is used; an comes from looking only at the spelling. |
04 What to do after marking
- After marking, redo only the wrong items and write down which step went wrong (formula, unit, or misread number).
- Repeat the same item two days later; move to the next paper only when both attempts are correct.
- Parents only need the answer and note columns; there is no need to explain every item.
