 Question 3
Read the leaflet below. Then, answer questions (a) – (j).

Save the Earth!

It is important for everyone to learn the different ways to take care of the environment. Here
are some methods to protect the Earth.

Protect & Conserve

We should learn to conserve wildlife as they are important to us and to the ecosystem.
Everyone must work together to protect the animals, birds, insects and plants in jungles, as
well as the coral reefs and marine life in the sea. All these living things are interconnected
and from close relationships that bring benefits to one another.

Practise the 3Rs

Reduce, reuse and recycle should be the motto for today’s generation. To reduce means to
buy and use less, be things be energy. Save electricity and water. Do not throw away things
that are still usable. Donate or think of ways they can be reduced. Take recyclable materials
such as paper, plastic and glass products to recycling centres.

Look for Alternatives

We use a lot of natural resources to fulfil our

needs and wants. Some of these natural
resources cannot be renewed, such as coal and
oil, and are fast depleting. So, we should look
out for new and less damaging ways to fulfil our
needs. For example, we should start using
renewable resources such as wind energy that is
tapped from the wind farms, hydro-electric
power from the dams and solar energy from the
sun.

Take Action

Everyone must do his or her part to protect Mother Nature. Some people stop eating sharks’
fin because killing sharks just for the fins is a cruel act. Some choose to carpool or cycle to
work to reduce the production of greenhouse gases. There are others who only use products
that are environmentally-friendly to prevent pollution. Every little bit matters.
Questions (a) – (d): Based on the poster, state whether the following statements are
TRUE or FALSE.

(a) The poster describes four methods to protect the environment.

___________ (1 mark)
(b) Conservation is about working together to find new ways to use
natural resources. ___________ (1

(c) The poster suggest that we use non-renewable natural resources.

Question 4
Read the article about eco-architect.

Eco-Architect Takes Us into the Life of a Building

Looking relaxed in a light blue shirt and white jeans, Prof Jason Pomeroy was
quite easy to spot at the Colonial Cafe in Majestic Hotel Kuala Lumpur. The good-
looking eco-architect, academic and urban planner is the host of architecture travel
series City Time Traveller, which is currently into its second season.
The program highlights the unique architecture in different cities and explores
how such buildings were influenced by culture, tradition and social practices.
The first season of City Time Traveller took Pomeroy to cities in Vietnam,
Thailand, China, India and Singapore and was highly commended for the Best
Infotainment category at the 2014 Asian Television Award.
In Season Two, Pomeroy leaves the beaten track to explore six more cities and
their architectural heritage, such as the Spanish colonial structure of Intramuros in
Manila; the Presidency University and Oberoi Grand hotel in Kolkatta; Kuala Lumpur’s
National Mosque and Railway Station; the Harmandir Sahib (Golden Temple) of
Amritsar, India; Shanghai’s towering skyscrapers; and the monasteries of Paro, Bhutan.
More than merely hosting the show, Pomeroy also provided architectural and
academic direction in both seasons. “It’s a remarkable experience because it’s not every
day that one gets the privilege to see the diverse types of architecture and range of
cultures in such a short amount of time.
“Many of these lessons are so strongly rooted in the past that many solutions to
our current climate, cultural, economic, technological, spatial and social problems
could be addressed if we learnt something from the past occupants of these traditional
buildings,” says the special professor at Nottingham University, Britain, and the
University IUAV di Venezia, Italy.
Pomeroy gave the example of Bhutan, a country that embraces a dual system of the
Buddhist faith and secularism, and known for its Gross National Happiness index.
“So when so many thriving economies seek to create an index to measure their
Gross Domestic Product, they are more concerned with their Gross National Happiness,
with the view that if you are happy, you are going to be prosperous, economically and
socially,” he says. “What I find fascinating is that they have somehow managed to
create building types that seem to foster that sense of happiness.”
“This fortified citadel serves as the beacon to society, a model of how one
should live in order to eventually reach enlightenment. The impact on the city is that all
buildings try to emulate the Dzong, to the point that they are almost replicas
architecturally,” says the Singapore-based founder of sustainable design firm Pomeroy
Studio.
In the show, he explores the KL Railway Station, designed by British architects
with Moghul and Saracenic influence; the National Mosque which features Islamic
architecture fused with modern materials and technology; and the Petronas Twin
Towers, a gleaming skyscraper that incorporates Islamic geometry.

Question 5
Read the poem below carefully. Then, answer questions (a) – (d).

Heir Conditioning

Grand dad did you breathe

Before air cons were invented
Was it hard staying
Alive without modern inventions?
Grandma weren’t you flustered
As you fluttered with paper fans?
Could you communicate before
Faxes and long distance calls
Became basic necessities?

Grandchild we lived
Before your age. Because
Of our ignorance,
We did not know
Pollution, stress, traffic jams
Destruction of forests, streams and hills
We feared God and nature
Now nature fears you and
Money is your new God.
