Read the text – Emily of Emerald Hill carefully from pages 2 to 10.
Read the resources given to you by the teacher in your Literature File.

During the test period please take note of the following:

Read the questions carefully before writing.

Good luck.



C. FINAL REMINDER

Study for your test and write a lot during the test and you will be rewarded.
I do not test what is not taught in class. The test concerns what you should have already learnt and understood in class.
