Sentences can be categorised into three main types, depending on their structures. WRITING STRATEGIES SIMPLE A simple sentence has one independent clause. No commas separate two compound elements in a simple sentence. Example: Siti likes to eat apples. COMPOUND A compound sentence has two independent clauses joined by a coordinating conjunction (for, and, but, or, yet, so). Example: Siti likes to eat apples, but she doesn’t like to eat oranges. COMPLEX A complex sentence has one dependent clause (headed by a subordinating conjunction or a relative pronoun) joined to an independent clause. Example: My camera is broken, so I have to borrow from my friend. 4 STEPS TO WRITE! Before you begin writing, answer 5W1H questions with regard to your topic.

We can't think of going through our lives without televisions. They are now as common as dishwashers in your home. We have Netflix, Amazon Prime and a host of content providers competing to win our subscriptions. Electronic television was first successfully demonstrated in San Francisco on Sept. 7, 1927. The system was designed by Philo Taylor Farnsworth, who had been working on it since 1920. Electronic television is a type of television that uses electronic signals to produce images on a video screen. This type of television is a visual medium that transmits images and sounds by means of radio waves, microwaves or infrared rays. Today, via satellite or cable networks, television can transmit audio, video and data to residences and establishments. Television has been a staple culture for decades. From its earliest days, it has grown into one of the most important forms of communication in our society today.

The injured people were taken to the hospital immediately. B Flood TEMERLOH: The entire district of Temerloh faced heavy rainfall for hours this week.

Choose the transportation (A, B or C) which fits the description. For each question, choose the correct answer A, B or C. A Carriages In the past, a carriage was used to transport things and people. It was a vehicle with wheels that’s usually pulled by horses. In some cities, you can go for a carriage ride through the park. A single horse could pull a wheeled vehicle and contents weighing as much as a ton. Transporting people and goods was difficult in the 19th century as animals required large quantities of food and water to provide primary means of transportation all over the world. B Telegraph The telegraph was developed in the mid-19th century by Samuel Morse. The term came from the Greek words tele, meaning at a distance, and graphien, meaning to write. It was a device or system that allows the transmission of information through coded signal over distance. It was mostly used to communicate between ships at sea. C Pot A simple vessel made of earth and water, the pot was one of the oldest and most valuable tools. The discovery that clay could be formed into a container and baked until hard allowed people to carry, cook, serve and store their food. Without the pot, we never would have roamed far from sources of fresh water and wouldn’t be able to preserve food to get through famines and harsh weather.

If you encounter one, stay calm. Take cover under a table to protect yourself from falling objects. If you’re driving, stop in a safe place as there may be road damage. After the tremors stop, move to a safe location. Ensure your loved ones and pets are also safe. Remember to stay away from buildings and beaches. Follow these safety measures to protect yourself during an earthquake. Take care and stay safe.
