Okay, Step 1: You basically look at the vertical scale and the horizontal scale and convert them to the same unit of measurement. Metres is usually the best one. e.g. vertical scale - 1:50m horizontal scale - 1:100 000 (the horizontal scale would always be in centimetres at...

Okay...I don't really know what this means, but I was of something more like this: http://blog.fireflyz.com.my/wp-content/uploads/2009/12/99418-5_elena_dementieva.jpg (except without the smile), not the random picture you put up there. And btw, I do Jap at my day school and Chinese at the...

I think integrated essays are better since you waste less time repeating yourself and it's clearer for the markers. By linking different texts under the same idea, you can practically just have a generic essay prepared and adapt it to any question (But I think this only works with the modules...

Wow, you must be really good then. Where did you learn Chinese? High school I presume?

Tall, blonde, slim, pretty face, Eastern European, serious (a lot of people don't seem to get this last bit)

Apart from air traffic flow which is probably the most obvious manifestation of world city interaction, there's also the movement of labour, skilled personnel, information (email- most common, telephone systems, postal services), capital and goods and services (due to breakdown of trading...

Um...not that tall yet. Probably around 1.74 metres. Hopefully I can still grow at least another 5 or so cm before I reach 20 something years old. I don't know why but I've basically stopped growing ever since I was 13. Weird. Miss Successful: I've only ever seen one curry Asian couple, and...

I don't really know what a 'sentencial verb' actually is, but I think the first one could have incorporated the technique of 'inversion' in "That much I knew", since you would normally say "I knew that much", wouldn't you? The second one, if not a biblical allusion like Lolsmith said, it's...

It basically means your experiences determine or provide you with a sense of belonging. Here you could talk about how times of adversity or common experiences can bring people together. You can also describe how these difficult experiences shape your values, beliefs, ideals etc and ultimately...

But if I do a generic essay trying to cover as many points as possible, wouldn't that mean my generic essay would be something around 2000 words long? Can you please give me some tips on condensing so much information into a normal 40 minutes essay? e.g structure, which ideas about belonging I...

I think pretty flexible ideas would be: 1) The idea of belonging is never static and is constantly changing due to contextual influences. 2) Acceptance and understanding are critical in forging a sense of belonging with people, places, community etc/ Conversely, a lack of this will result...

Okay... Just out of interest, are you white, Chinese or from another Asian country? I don't think simplified will ever die out and all the stuff you mentioned are negligible compared to how influential simplified characters have become in China. If Korea, Japan and Taiwan want to standardise all...

Does anyone here like Disney songs?

Why does everyone hate Dale Begg Smith so much? I'm just curious since I don't really know who he is apart from the guy who won the silver medal in the moguls.

What about Rachel McAdams? She kicks everybody's arse on that list in my opinion.

Probably 1) The Prince of Egypt 2) Mulan 3) Lion King Shrek's pretty good as well.

Has anyone realised that you rarely ever see a white girl and an Asian guy in a relationship? It's a lot more common the other way around (white guy, Asian girl). I'm Asian but for some reason I prefer eastern Europeans over Asians or Australians, British, Americans...etc. They look way...

I'm not really certain as to how much time/space you should devote to discussing your related texts and prescribed text in a belonging essay (or any English essay which requires related texts). I've heard that you should write equal amounts on each one but then my teacher's been telling us...

I didn't have it saved or anything, I just kind of remember where it is in the book.
