The man turned. His eyes widened. His briefcase clattered to the floor and littered the street with paper, but he didn’t run. Shock kept his feet planted. Danny lunged and pinned him to the ground. Just as he was about to clamp his jaws around his victim’s neck, their eyes met. Danny saw the fear in them, the hopelessness. In their tear-filled sheen he saw his own. They were the glowing, yellow eyes of a killer. He stopped. The trance was broken. It was as if he had just woken from a deep sleep. He could feel himself changing. His muscles deflated. His claws disappeared under his fingernails. His hairs pulled back into his skin. “I’m sorry,” he said. His voice was a growl, still half wolf. He ran off into the night without looking back.

Exploring skills You need to make sure that you are selecting only the most relevant information to include in your answer.

1 Read the following question and extract. Then identify the unnecessary material in the sample answers below.

Top tip Simply copying out whole sentences will often mean that you lose marks in a Summary response where being concise and using your own words is important, or in a Directed writing response where you need to adapt material to a new purpose.

Name two aspects of Portugal that Jack Petchey wanted others to experience. In 1970 45-year-old Jack Petchey stood on a hilltop overlooking one of the most beautiful bays on Portugal’s Algarve and envisaged a time when people would come and marvel at the same view, walk on those white-gold sands and swim in that perfect sea – and they would do it all from the comfort of a luxury holiday resort complex.

●● It ignores irrelevant additional details. ●● It combines different examples into larger points.

Developing skills Writers will often develop their ideas by adding anecdotes. An anecdote is a short story to exemplify or back up the writer’s point. For instance: I really don’t like cats; they scare me. If I see one coming I run. Well okay, I step hesitantly backwards and wait for them to pass, never losing eye contact with their slinky panther-like frames. They’re mysterious, aloof creatures. Give me a soppy canine anytime. One look at its face and you know it all: ‘keep away, I’m not in the mood’ or ‘yes, yes, yes, let’s play now!’ It all started when I was

4 Write the following phrase into your own words. In particular

Petchey liked the hill above a lovely bay and the amazing view that he was enjoying so he wanted to share it.

It looked harmless enough; in fact it looked cuddly and kind.

Applying skills 5 Answer the following question on the passage above. Remember to summarise

Building skills

concisely, using your own words, and to group ideas together in longer complex sentences.

Look at the answers to the following question. What made Jack Petchey decide to build Club Praia da Oura?

Jack Petchey decided to build the club because he enjoyed that part of the Algarve coast and he wanted other people to be able to enjoy it too.

Jack Petchey decided to build the club because one day he was out for a walk and the view reminded him how lovely it was on the beach and in the sea and he wanted other people to be able to do it too so they needed somewhere to stay.

How does the writer feel about cats and why?

a small child and I was left in the garden on my own. Next door’s cat came walking up to me. It looked harmless enough; in fact it looked cuddly and kind, so I put my arms out and pulled it towards me. Yowl! It made a terrible noise, and swiped me across the cheek with its paw. I began to wail even louder than it had! So there you have it: the reason I hate our furry friends, in a nutshell.

Petchey wanted people to have his experience of the white-gold sands and to swim in the perfect sea. He wanted them to ‘marvel at the view’.

The object of the voyages was to display the glory and might of the Chinese Ming dynasty. Loaded with Chinese silk, porcelain, and lacquerware, the junks visited ports around the Indian Ocean from East Africa to Indonesia to trade. Here, Arab and African merchants exchanged the spices, ivory, medicines, rare woods, and pearls so eagerly sought by the Chinese imperial court.

Reasons for the voyage

When I was but a little child, I had already a strong desire to see the world. Whenever I met a travelling-carriage, I would stop involuntarily and gaze after it until it had disappeared.

But in truth, should I meet with gold or spices in great quantity, I shall remain till I collect as much as possible, and for this purpose I am proceeding in quest of them.

Six centuries ago, half a century before the first Europeans, a mighty armada of Chinese ships crossed the China Sea, then ventured west to Arabia, and East Africa. The fleet consisted of up to 300 giant ships, escorted by dozens of supply ships, water tankers, ships to transport cavalry horses, and patrol boats. The armada’s crew totalled more than 27,000 sailors and soldiers.

released and the surroundings become warmer. In some cases energy is absorbed from the surroundings and so the surroundings become colder. Note: Some physical changes, such as evaporation, also produce energy changes.

Some chemical reactions take place extremely quickly, for example when petrol is ignited it combines with oxygen almost instantaneously; reactions like these have a high rate. Other reactions are much slower, for example when an iron bar rusts in the air; reactions like these have a low rate. Chemical reactions can be controlled and made to be quicker or slower. This can be very important in situations like food production, either by slowing down or increasing the rate at which food ripens, or in the chemical industry where the rate of the reaction can be adjusted to an optimum level.

! collision theory For a chemical reaction to occur, the reacting particles (atoms, molecules or ions) must collide. The energy involved in the collision must be enough to break the chemical bonds in the reacting particles – or the particles will just bounce off one another. A collision that has enough energy to result in a chemical reaction is an effective collision. Some chemical reactions occur extremely quickly (for example, the explosive reaction between petrol and oxygen in a car engine) and some more slowly (for example, iron rusts over days or weeks). This is because they have different activation energies. Activation energy is the minimum amount of energy required in a collision for a reaction to occur. As a general rule, the bigger the activation energy the slower the reaction will be at a particular temperature. !

learning objectives ✓ Understand what is meant by the term ‘rate’; ✓ Know how the rate of different reactions can be altered by changing the surface area of solids, the concentration of solutions, the pressure of gases, temperature and with a catalyst. ✓ Be able to describe experiments to investigate changes in the rates of reactions; ✓ Be able to use a simple collision theory to explain how the rate of reaction can be altered and understand the significance of a reaction’s activation energy.

What happens in chemical reactions? A chemical change, or chemical reaction, is quite different from the physical changes that occur, for example, when sugar dissolves in water. One or more new substances are produced. In many cases an observable change is apparent, for example the colour changes or a gas is produced. An apparent change in mass can occur. This change is often quite small and difficult to detect unless accurate balances are used. Mass is conserved in a chemical reaction – the apparent change in mass usually occurs because one of the reactants or products is a gas. An energy change is almost always involved. In most cases energy is

△ Particles must collide with sufficient energy to make an effective collision.

rate of a reaction A quick reaction takes place in a short time. It has a high rate of reaction. As the time taken for a reaction to be completed increases, the rate of the reaction decreases. In other words:

Agriculture

Unfortunately, many LEDCs are not developing quickly enough. This means that, despite the loss of farming jobs, there is not enough industrial employment for all those that need it. Unemployment rates can be very high. Underemployment (where people have some, but not enough work) is also a problem. This has led to the growth of the informal sector.

People with informal jobs do not get a regular wage but work when they need to, perhaps by selling goods on street corners or beaches, washing cars or shining shoes (figure D).

Presenting and interpreting data

LEDCs, especially the poorest ones, tend to have a very high proportion of people working in agriculture as subsistence farmers. As countries develop, this proportion changes. One way in which this process of industrial development takes place is shown in figure A.

SESSION 5

Internet research

Basic searches Keywords are essential for any basic search and they can often be used to find information quickly. For example an input device that will appear in your presentation is a mouse. A simple search will quickly produce information and images. Unfortunately not all the results may be relevant to your school work.

Background A good presentation requires relevant information and images, suitable for audience and purpose. The Internet provides access to millions of pages, documents, images and descriptions that can help when researching any project, but deciding where to start looking and what keywords to use can be daunting. In order to produce the presentation in this unit you will need to search for images and technical information on input and output devices. In this session you will look at the following: ●● Choosing a search engine ● Using advanced searches ●● Using basic searches ● Downloading files and images ●● Using specific websites

Activity 2 Carry out single term searches using the following ICT words: Mouse Keyboard Speaker Chip Memory

Visual approach to engage students

Lots of suggestions for activities to engage students and help them to consolidate what they’ve learned

Are the results you find always relevant to ICT and if not what do they refer to? Discuss with a friend the advantages and disadvantages of basic searches?

Advanced search techniques More specific searches require more specific questions. There are many words that have two or more meanings or are so common that a simple search produces millions of results.

Search Engines There are many search engines available but they all perform a similar task; searching for content based on the words you enter. Here are a few popular search engines.

Most search engines have an advanced search feature that allows more keywords to be entered to refine the search and produce more relevant results.

On the CD

Using the mouse example an advanced search could be created as follows: Keyword: mouse

www.google.com

www.yahoo.com

Keyword: keyboard

www.ask.com

Most search engines will also help narrow down your results from the start by allowing you to choose the type of information you require.

Keyword: input

Keyword: device

Unwanted keywords: mammal or animal

Ranging from images, news and shopping to videos and books. Targeted searches can be carried out without extra search terms.

Activity 1 How many different search engines are you, your friends and family aware of? Which are the most popular and why?
