Sprint 1.2: Describe And Explain

When you read an exam question, the instruction word tells you exactly how to answer. If the question asks you to the process of photosynthesis, you need to give detailed reasons for why and how it happens. On the other hand, if you are asked to a historical monument, you should paint a picture with words by listing its physical details and features. Sometimes a question will ask you to the main events of the Indian independence movement. In this case, you only need to provide a brief summary or the main points without going into deep detail. Finally, if your science teacher wants you to the water cycle, you must provide clear examples or draw a labeled diagram to show how it works. Understanding these instruction words helps you write exactly what the examiner wants and saves you valuable time during the test.
