答案與解析
No.6
Explanation
The correct answer is C.
The letter 「E」 makes the /e/ sound, as in the word 「elephant」.
Answer A is incorrect because the letter 「A」 makes the /a/ sound, as in the word 「ant」.
Answer B is incorrect because the letter 「S」 makes the /s/ sound, as in the word 「snake」.
Answer D is incorrect because the letter 「B」 makes the /b/ sound, as in the word 「box」.
No.7
Explanation
The correct answers are A and C.
Words that rhyme are words that end with the same sound.
The words 「cat」 and 「bat」 both end with the sound /at/, so they rhyme.
Answer B is incorrect because the word 「boat」 ends with the sound /oat/, which is different from the sound /at/.
Answer D is incorrect because the word 「bus」 ends with the sound /us/, which is different from the sound /at/.
No.8
Explanation
The correct answers are B and C.
When adding the ending 「s」 to a noun, it changes the noun from singular (one) to plural (more than one).
In the words 「apples」 and 「bananas」, the ending 「s」 was added to the singular forms of the words (apple and banana) and changed them from one to more than one.
Therefore, the words 「apples」 and 「bananas」 are in plural form.
The words 「store」, 「bus」, and 「home」 are in singular form, so these answers are incorrect.
Notice that the letter 「s」 in the word 「bus」 is not an ending that is added to the word. It is a part of the word itself. The plural form of the word 「bus」 is 「buses」.
No.9
Explanation
The correct answer is B.
A table of contents is a page that appears at the beginning of a book, and contains a list of the book』s chapters, and the page where each chapter starts.
To know which page has instructions for baking cookies, look for the word 「cookies」 in the table of contents.
Then, look at the number that appears on the right of the word, it tells the page of this chapter.
The number on the right of the word 「cookies」 is 5, so page 5 has the instructions for baking cookies.
No.10
Explanation
The correct answer is B.
An opinion is a thought or belief about something or someone that cannot be proven.
The sentence 「it is a very interesting country」 is an opinion- it cannot be proven, and someone else might think the opposite.
A fact is a statement that can be proven as true or false.
The sentences 「It is the country with the largest number of people in the world」, 「China is a country in East Asia」 and 「It has 14 neighboring countries」 are facts-
They can be proven, and one cannot argue that they are not true.
乍看都是英文，或許會有些懵，其實邏輯和語文都是相通的。想上國際學校找順義一哥郭老師就行，然而能不能跟得上國際學校的節奏，還是要下一番功夫的。
經過這兩天的學習，如果感到MAP Kindergarten的例題還是有些難度的話，以下建議，或許會有所裨益：
1.慢即是快
九層之台，起於壘土；千里之行，始於足下。研究透一題，遠勝於模凌兩可十道題。不急，是一種打井，深到打出水的堅韌。
2.少即是多
繁雜的信息，要注重信噪比。什麼有用，什麼最有用？知識與技能的掌握，要害者往往惟有二三點，掌握住即可。在一個知識可以檢索的時代，搞題海戰術，實在不划算。國際學校真正值得讀的地方正是把人從做題的工具中解放出來，能形成自己獨到的見解。見解並不必多，真知灼見最為重要。
