QUESTIONS 1: TRANSLATION: Translate into French.


John arrived home late that night. He looked tired and hungry. He went straight into the bathroom and took a bath. Then he was served a meal which he ate without appetite. Soon after, he went to bed. He slept like someone who had spent the whole night drinking. The day before, he had gone to Douala early, in the hope of returning home in time. Unfortunately, he had left Douala in a seventy-seater bus, at about10 p.m. The journey was smooth until mid-way , when the vehicle had a flat tyre.
That was when his problems began. Some passengers started asking the driver to sell the bus and buy good tyres. Others declared that he would be held responsible if theives attacked them. The repairs took quite some time. After that, the travellers entered the bus and continued their journey..


QUESTION 2: ESSAY

Teacher:KANGO JACOBINE ACHAH

Question:a)State and explain why it is essential for a country to measure her national income

b)Explain any four problems encountered in the calculation of national income

 

            Answer

a)National income refers to the money value of goods and services in a country for a period of one year.It is essential for a country to measure her national income, for the following reasons;

       National income figures serve as an indicator of standard of living. An increase in national income means an increase in the standard of living, while a fall in national income means a fall in the standard of living

       Also, National income shows the level of economic growth. An increase in national income means a rise in economic growth, while a fall in national income means reduce economic growth

       Moreso,national income statistics are used to make comparisons between countries .A country with a high national income, is considered richer than the other country.

       Furthermore,National income statistics assist the government in carrying outeconomic planning, in order to achieve economic objectives,such as full employment, equal distribution of income.

      In addition, National income statistics is used to calculate the rate at which national income is growing.This will enable a country to know if it’s national income is increasing or decreasing.

b) When calculating the national income, the following problems are encountered;

          The problem of double counting .It occurs when the value of output is counted more than once.This is because the output of some firms is the input of others. This problem can be solved by considering only the final output of firms at each stage of production

           Furthermore,the problem of giving market value to public and merit goods. Government provided goods and services donor have market price.To solve this problem, they are evaluated at factor cost.

          Also, self provided services.Self provided services like that of a house wife, washing clothes and cooking food in the house, are not counted when calculating the national income.To solve this problem, market values(price) is given to such activities.

         In addition,transfer payments.These are monies received for no current work done, for example unemployment benefits, pension allowances.To solve this problem, transfer payments are excluded in the calculation of national income.

         Again,unreported incomes is another problem.Unreported incomes are the incomes which are earned from activities which are not officially noticed by the government. For example hair dressing, shoe repairs in the quaters

 

LESSON NO 2

WEEK BEGINNING 23RD TO 27TH MARCH 2020

GEOLOGY FOR FORM 5SCE.

Subject: Geology
Class: Form 5
Topic: Introduction to geological map work
Lesson: Identification of geological features on a geological map.
These features include;
1) Horizontal beds
Identify when bedding planes run parallel to topographic contours.
2) Folded beds
They are identified from a repetition of similar beds on both sides of a core bed.
If the core bed is the oldest, the fold is an anticline, as well as dip arrows pointing away from each other.
If the core bed is the youngest then the fold is a syncline, as well as dip arrows pointing towards each other.
3) Faulted beds
It’s represented by a thick black line.
4) Intrusions
a) dykes: They cuts across stratification
b) Sills: They occurs between bedding planes
c) volcanic plugs, bosses shows a circular outcrop pattern.
All these features are summarized in the map below

LESSON NO 4

WEEK BEGINNING 23RD TO 27TH MARCH 2020

 

LOGIC LESSON: F5A/B.

Lesson Title: Introduction To Symbolic Logic.

Definition: symbolic logic is formal logic in which we use symbols to express an idea or ideas.
Symbolic logic is a branch of formal logic that studies the meaning and relationship of statements via precise mathematical methods and rules of inference.
Symbolic logic was founded by GOTTLOB FREGE. It is mathematical in origin, and mathematical in techniques and method. Hence, it is also known as Mathematical Logic.

IMPORTANCE OF SYMBOLIC LOGIC.

1.It is an instrument for making transitions in reasoning almost mechanically.

2.It serves as short_hand to express a proposition or argument (idea).

3.It provides a penetration and fruitful analysis of internal structure of statements and argument.

SIMILARITIES BETWEEN ARISTOTELIAN LOGIC AND SYMBOLIC LOGIC.

1. Both are deductive and formal.

2. Both types are mathematical in approach.

LESSON NO 5

WEEK BEGINNING 23RD TO 27TH MARCH 2020

  PHYSICS F5 
       ELECTRICAL HOUSE WIRING 
          It involves 2 circuits.That is 
*The Lighting circuit; which takes less current and bulbs 
 connected in parallel . ( so that if one bulb gets bad in 
 one room, it will not affect the bulbs in the other rooms) 
*The Power circuit; where the suckets  are connected  in  
parallel such that plugging one appliance does not affect 
 the others. 
          House wiring  is done using cables and each cable 
 contains 3 wires namely: 
a)The Live wire (L):The live wire is brown  in colour and  
brings in current  at high voltage of 240V.It is dangerous  
since it carries live current 
b)Neutral wire(N):It is blue in colour and at zero  
potential (earth potential) because it is connected to the 
 earth at the station or sub- station.It carries less energetic  
electrons to complete the circuit using the ground. 
c)The Earth wire (E):It is green/yellow  in colour.It is 
 connected  to the metal casing of the appliance and to 
 the earth. 
NB: It protects the users. That is, in case of any fault 
 when the live wire is touching the ground,the appliance  
becomes live.The leakage current is conducted  to the 
 earth through the earth wire due to its low resistance it  
offers than that of other wires. 
                       THE FUSE 
It is a device made up of a thin wire and always 
 connected to  the live wire. 
   NB: It protects  the appliances. That is, in case of any 
 fault when the current flowing through the circuit is more 
 than the normal current,the fuse melts and current stops 
 flowing through the circuit. 
     The rise value is always slightly greater than the  
actual current of the circuit. 
Example:If an appliance is rated 750W,220V, then the 
 actual current is given by   I = P/V 
➢ I = 750/220 =3.4A 
                          Then fuse value = 3.5A. 
              SWITCHES 
It is a device which puts on and off current in a circuit. 
It is connected to the live wire because of it is connected  
to the  neutral wire,the circuit will still be live and  
dangerous even when  switched off
 

LESSON NO 6

WEEK BEGINNING 23RD TO 27TH MARCH 2020

Collocations

A collocation is made up of two or more words that are commonly used together in English. Think of collocations as words that usually go together. There are different kinds of collocations in English. Strong collocations are word pairings that are expected to come together, such as combinations with 'make' and 'do': You make a cup of tea, but you do your homework. Collocations are very common in business settings when certain nouns are routinely combined with certain verbs or adjectives. For example, draw up a contract, set a price, conduct negotiations, etc.

Collocation Examples

Here are a number of common collocations in English:

To make the bed I need to make the bed every day.

To do homework My son does his homework after dinner.

To take a risk Some people don't take enough risks in life.

To give someone advice The teacher gave us some advice on taking tests.

Verb Collocations

Some of the most common collocations involve verb + noun collocations used in everyday situations. Here are some examples of the types of verb collocations you will need as you continue learning English.

- To feel free :Please feel free to take a seat and enjoy the show.

- To come prepared: Make sure to come prepared for the test tomorrow.

-To save time: You'll save time if you turn off your smart phone and concentrate on the lesson.

-To find a replacement:  We need to find a replacement for Jim as soon as possible.

- To make progress:  We're making progress on the project at work.

-To do the washing up: I'll do the washing up and you can put Johnny to bed.

Business Collocations

Collocations are often used in business and work settings. There are a number of forms including adjectives, nouns and other verbs that combine with keywords to form business expressions. Here are some business collocations for specific situations.

-To open an account:  Would you like to open an account at our bank?

- To forgive a debt :Do you think the bank would forgive a debt?

- To land a deal:  We landed a deal worth 3 million francs.

- To key in a PIN: Just key in your PIN at the ATM and you can make a deposit.

- To deposit a check:  I'd like to deposit this check of 100frs.

- Hard-earned money : Once you get a job, you'll know what hard-earned money really is.

- To close a deal : I closed a deal on a new account last week.

- To write up a contract : Let's write up your contract.

counterfeit money Be on the lookout for counterfeit money in circulation.

Common Expressions

Collocations are often used as short expressions to describe how someone feels about a situation. In this case, collocations can be used in the adjective form, or also as emphatic expressions using an intensifier and a verb. Here are a few examples using some common collocations:

positively encourage someone to do something.  We'd like to positively encourage you to buy this stock.

Deeply regret the loss of someone / something. I deeply regret the loss of your loved one.

To go to great lengths to do something He went to a great length to explain the situation.

You can learn collocations from a number of resources. Academics and teachers like to use collocation databases to help study common collocation uses. However, for students one of the best tools is a collocation dictionary. A collocation dictionary is different from normal dictionaries in that it provides you with collocations commonly used with key words rather than a definition. Here is an example of a few of the collocations used with the verb 'progress':

Progress

Adverb: nicely, satisfactory, smoothly, well -

You are progressing smoothly in this course. | further - As you further progress, you will learn more.

Verb + Progress: fail to - He's failing to progress at work.

Prepositions: beyond - She failed to progress beyond high school. | from, through -

Students should progress from this class with an improved knowledge of the subject.
