Exam practice: Linking your own texts, tables and statements
How it works
In the 10th grade English, it is important to connect information from your own texts, tables, or statements and to link it logically. This means, for example, that you can derive suitable statements from a table or combine a short text with facts from a graphic. You must recognise which information belongs together and how to connect it correctly in language. Typical links are, for example, ‹According to the table, ...›, ‹The text states that ...› or ‹This means that ...›. Comparing and summarising information is also central. Example: ‹The table shows that more students prefer tea than coffee, which supports the text’s claim that tea is the most popular drink.›
Link information from different sources (text, table, statement) with suitable English connectors such as ‹according to›, ‹as shown in›, ‹which means›, ‹however› or ‹therefore›. Make sure that the content fits together logically and is connected correctly in language.
An example
Given is the table ‹Favorite school subjects: Math 40%, English 30%, Science 20%, Art 10%.› Which statement correctly links the table information with the statement ‹Many students enjoy Math.›?
