Quiz Preview and Instructions

 

To help you understand the format, view the three pages below that are very much like what a real quiz will look like.

 

1. Answer sheet. This page will be turned in when the quiz is over, and will have your name and person number at the top. Each quiz will have two parts: Map quiz and Short answer. To answer the map quiz, you should look at the map, and identify the place name with the order number provided in the place list. The answer for the short answer should be filled in with word(s) or phrases.


2. Map This is identical to map exercises downloadable from course web site except that the map is labeled with alphabets. In the case of city, the label is located right above the city (e.g. Please look at F in the map). In the case of physical features, the label is located in the center of the physical feature (e.g. Please look at B and C in the map).


3. Place list. This is identical to map exercises downloadable from course web site except that there is a number beside each item.
