Question 1 of 30
1. Question
Read the extracts below then answer the questions that follow.
Extract A: Beyond the Surface
Once upon a time, in a verdant valley nestled amidst snow-capped mountains, there lived a young woman named Althea. She was renowned throughout the kingdom for her exquisite beauty, which was said to rival that of the goddess Aphrodite herself. With her porcelain skin, jet-black hair, and eyes the colour of emeralds, Althea was the envy of all who knew her.
But as she grew older, Althea began to realise that her beauty was a double-edged sword. It brought her adoration and admiration from many suitors, but it also drew the attention of those who coveted her for their own purposes. Despite her natural grace and intelligence, Althea found herself constantly underestimated and objectified, reduced to nothing more than a pretty face.
One day, while wandering through the forest, Althea came across an ancient oak tree with a face carved into its trunk. The tree spoke to her in a deep, resonant voice, and asked her what troubled her so. Althea poured out her heart to the tree, telling it of her struggles and fears.
The tree listened intently, and then spoke again. “My dear, you have been blessed with a rare and precious gift, but it is up to you to use it wisely. Beauty is not just skin deep, it is a reflection of the soul. If you want others to see you as more than a pretty face, you must cultivate your inner beauty as well. Let your kindness, intelligence, and strength shine through, and others will come to see you for the remarkable woman you truly are.”
Althea took the tree’s words to heart, and began to focus on developing her inner beauty. She volunteered at the local hospital, where her gentle touch and compassionate nature brought comfort to the sick and suffering. She studied philosophy and poetry, expanding her mind and her understanding of the world.
Over time, Althea found that her inner beauty shone brighter than ever before, and others began to take notice. No longer was she seen as just a pretty face, but as a woman of depth, compassion, and strength. She still turned heads wherever she went, but now it was for all the right reasons.
And as she looked out at the world from the mountaintop where she now lived, Althea knew that true beauty was not something that could be bought or sold, but was a gift to be nurtured and shared with others.
Extract B: The Character of Antoine
In the heart of Paris, there lived a man named Antoine. He was tall, dark, and devastatingly handsome, with chiselled features that turned heads wherever he went. But despite his outward appearance, Antoine was a bitter and unhappy man, consumed by envy and resentment towards those who had more than he did.
Antoine had been born into a life of privilege, but had always felt that he deserved more. He was envious of his wealthier friends, and resentful of those who had achieved success through hard work and perseverance. Instead, Antoine relied on his charm and good looks to get ahead, manipulating others to get what he wanted.
But as Antoine grew older, he found that his handsome exterior was beginning to crumble. His once-perfect skin was marred by lines and wrinkles, and his hair had begun to thin and grey. And as he watched his own physical beauty fade, Antoine’s bitterness and envy only grew stronger.
One day, while walking along the Seine, Antoine came across a fortune-teller who promised to show him the path to true happiness. Antoine scoffed at the woman’s words, but couldn’t help being intrigued by her mysterious aura.
The fortune-teller gazed into Antoine’s eyes and saw the ugliness that lay within his soul. “You are a handsome man, but your character is ugly,” she said. “Until you learn to let go of your envy and resentment, you will never find true happiness.”
At first, Antoine dismissed the woman’s words as nonsense. But as he continued on his path, he found himself growing increasingly unhappy and unfulfilled. His once-charming demeanour began to grate on those around him, and his manipulative tactics were no longer effective.
Realising that he needed to change, Antoine sought out the fortune-teller once more. She instructed him to spend time volunteering at a local charity, and to focus on cultivating a sense of gratitude and compassion for others.
Slowly but surely, Antoine began to see the world in a different light. He found joy in giving back to others, and discovered a sense of purpose that had eluded him for so long. And as he worked to overcome his own selfish tendencies, Antoine found that his true beauty was beginning to shine through.
In the end, Antoine realised that true happiness was not something that could be bought or manipulated, but was a product of one’s own character and inner strength. And as he looked out at the world from his apartment balcony, Antoine knew that he had finally found the beauty that had always eluded him.

Shall I compare thee to a summer’s day? (Sonnet 18) by William Shakespeare
Shall I compare thee to a summer’s day?
Thou art more lovely and more temperate:
Rough winds do shake the darling buds of May,
And summer’s lease hath all too short a date:
Sometime too hot the eye of heaven shines, 5
And often is his gold complexion dimm’d;
And every fair from fair sometime declines,
By chance or nature’s changing course untrimm’d;
But thy eternal summer shall not fade
Nor lose possession of that fair thou owest; 10
Nor shall Death brag thou wander’st in his shade,
When in eternal lines to time thou growest:
So long as men can breathe or eyes can see,
So long lives this, and this gives life to thee.

Shall I compare thee to a summer’s day? (Sonnet 18) by William Shakespeare
Shall I compare thee to a summer’s day?
Thou art more lovely and more temperate:
Rough winds do shake the darling buds of May,
And summer’s lease hath all too short a date:
Sometime too hot the eye of heaven shines, 5
And often is his gold complexion dimm’d;
And every fair from fair sometime declines,
By chance or nature’s changing course untrimm’d;
But thy eternal summer shall not fade
Nor lose possession of that fair thou owest; 10
Nor shall Death brag thou wander’st in his shade,
When in eternal lines to time thou growest:
So long as men can breathe or eyes can see,

The Evolution and Impact of Robotics
Robotics has come a long way since its inception, and its applications are becoming increasingly diverse. The first true robot was created in 1954 by George Devol, who invented the Unimate, a robotic arm used for industrial purposes. The Unimate was the first robot that could be programmed to perform repetitive tasks, such as welding and painting, on an assembly line. 13……………………
As technology advanced, so did robotics. The introduction of microprocessors and other electronic components made it possible to create robots that could think and learn on their own. The field of artificial intelligence also played a crucial role in the development of robotics, as robots become smarter and more capable of performing complex tasks. Nowadays, robotics has become an essential part of our daily lives. The manufacturing industry is one of the largest users of robotics. 14…………………… These tasks are often repetitive and require precision, which makes them ideal for automation. Robots can work 24/7 without getting tired, which means that they can increase productivity and reduce costs for companies.
Robots are also used in the medical field for a variety of purposes. They can be used for surgical procedures, such as minimally invasive surgery, which allows for smaller incisions and faster recovery times. 15…………………… They can help patients with daily activities, such as eating and getting dressed, which can improve their quality of life. Robotics is also being used in education to teach students about science, technology, engineering, and maths. Students can learn how to design and build robots, program them, and solve problems using them. 16……………………
Robots are also used in space exploration to explore planets and other celestial bodies. The Mars Rover, for example, is a robotic vehicle that was sent to Mars to collect data and samples. 17…………………… As technology continues to advance, the potential for robotics is endless. The military is already using drones for reconnaissance and other purposes. 18…………………… As the population ages, there is potential for robots to be used in the home to assist with daily activities such as cleaning, cooking, and laundry. Robots can also be used in agriculture to perform tasks such as planting and harvesting crops. This can increase efficiency and reduce costs for farmers.

Read the extracts below then answer the questions that follow.
A. Commercial architects are experts in the design of buildings and other structures used by businesses, including workplaces, retail establishments, and industrial facilities. Commercial architects are essential in influencing how our communities and economy are developed. The most acclaimed and well-known architects frequently create stunning, city-defining highrise structures. There is a chance for projects that will define these commercial architects’ careers. Yet, these projects frequently include working directly with the client as well as being visible to the public. There is a lot greater pressure because any mistakes could have a lasting impact on one’s career. Commercial architects must consider the client’s unique needs and requirements as well as the much more complex legislation governing commercial properties.
C. Residential architects are specialists in creating residences and other residential buildings. Residential architects are experts in creating residences for companies that build homes privately or create estates. Although residentials are typically thought of as a less prestigious alternative in comparison to iconic landmarks and skyscrapers, many illustrious architects have also worked on residential buildings. It can be quite difficult to create a home that is both attractive and practical. For their ability to alter their ideas, local building standards and neighbourhood restrictions are of special importance to residential architects. Also, it’s crucial that the designs can be easily adapted to accommodate a wide range of land sizes and forms because many designs are used in many different projects. For home additions, residential architects are also your best choice.
B. The design of buildings and structures used for industrial purposes, such as factories, warehouses, and manufacturing plants, is a specialty of industrial architects. Industrial architects are essential in determining how our economy’s built environment will look. For this reason, it is crucial that they are professionals in developing useful and effective buildings. Industrial architecture specialises in the design and construction of warehouses, factories, logic centres, etc. An industrial architect must be able to comprehend the cases for each area of the building and integrate the necessary machinery and equipment in a way that will result in the finished structure being used as efficiently as possible.
D. Urban architects are specialists in the planning and design of urban areas, including roadways, parks, and plazas. The character and quality of urban surroundings are significantly shaped by urban architects. Compared to other architects, urban designers rarely work on only one structure or project. Instead, they will focus on tasks related to municipal planning. This can entail enhancing the current city and its infrastructure in order to plan a new area. In order to ensure that housing, commercial, and industrial space are organised sustainably and with appropriate infrastructure, not only for the current plans but also for future development, an urban planner will primarily focus on the zoning of the city.

Read the article below then answer the questions that follow.
The Merlion of Singapore
The Merlion is an iconic symbol of Singapore, representing the country’s history, culture, and identity. This mythical creature is half-lion and half-fish, with a majestic mane and a scaly tail. It is said to embody the spirit of Singapore, blending strength, courage, and creativity with the grace and agility of the sea.
The history of the Merlion dates back to the 1960s when the Singapore Tourism Board was looking for a symbol to promote the country as a tourist destination. The idea of a mythical creature that combined the elements of the lion, which was the traditional symbol of Singapore, and the fish, which represented the city’s maritime heritage, was suggested. The concept was brought to life by the sculptor Lim Nang Seng, who created a statue of the Merlion in 1972.
The original Merlion statue was located at the mouth of the Singapore River, near the Fullerton Hotel. It stood at 8.6 metres tall and weighed 70 tons, making it the largest Merlion statue in Singapore. Over the years, several other Merlion statues were erected around the city, including a smaller version at Sentosa Island, which became a popular tourist attraction.
In 1995, the Merlion was given a new home at the Merlion Park from its original location at Merlion Park to Sentosa Island as part of Singapore’s efforts to balance preservation of its cultural heritage with its vision for the future as a global city. The park is located at the waterfront of Marina Bay and offers stunning views of the city skyline. The new statue stands at 8.6 metres tall and weighs 40 tons, making it a slightly smaller replica of the original.
Today, the Merlion is one of the most recognizable landmarks in Singapore, attracting millions of visitors every year. It symbolises the country’s history, culture, and identity, as well as its vision for the future. The Merlion represents Singapore’s ambition to be a global city, combining the best of the East and West, the past and present, and the natural and man-made.
The Merlion has also become a symbol of Singapore’s hospitality and friendliness. It is often depicted with a welcoming smile, inviting visitors to explore the city and its many attractions. The Merlion has also inspired a wide range of merchandise, from keychains and magnets to T-shirts and souvenirs, making it a beloved icon of Singaporean culture.
In recent years, the Merlion has undergone some changes, reflecting Singapore’s evolving identity and aspirations. In 2019, the Merlion statue at Merlion Park was removed to make way for a new development, sparking a debate about the symbol’s relevance in modern Singapore. Some argued that the Merlion was outdated and no longer represented the country’s diverse and dynamic culture, while others insisted that it was a cherished part of Singapore’s heritage and should be preserved.
Ultimately, the Merlion statue was relocated to a new site at Sentosa Island, where it continues to attract visitors from around the world. The move reflects Singapore’s commitment to honouring its past while embracing its future, celebrating its unique identity while welcoming new ideas and perspectives.
In conclusion, the history of the Merlion is intertwined with the history of Singapore, reflecting the country’s evolution from a humble fishing village to a thriving metropolis. The Merlion symbolises Singapore’s spirit of innovation, resilience, and creativity, as well as its commitment to hospitality, diversity, and inclusivity. Today, the Merlion remains a beloved icon of Singaporean culture, inspiring locals and visitors alike to explore the beauty and wonder of this vibrant city-state.
