In pdf or word document? If yes, please attach them here.
You can leave mass media and study the other 3 chapters, it's okay. You have eight questions to choose from and you have to do 3 only.
Didn't do Sociology mocks. I'm a private student :rolleyes:

Always pick prose. It was quite al right. How did you find it?


I always pick the poem. It was good.


(the poem was about being lonely, but not alone, for those who did the poem)

It was pretty hard, but hopefully it went okay, or the marker is nice :smile:



i know. for sum of them, i wasn't sure which period the music came from, bt for others, i jus put down as much as a could think of, cos if its wrong, it don't matter.

did anyone study chinese music, cos i'm not sure about one of the instruments they asked about.
How many examiners mark our papers?

The first one is baroque period.
in terms of chinese music, the first one is Sheng. the second one is Dizi.

i think we do. Toukuan has the sound of clarinet, Sheng can produce open triads.
