02How it is examined

What a Food and Shopping question asks you to do

Year 8 Assessment Task Shape is 50 marks in 75 minutes. Questions on Food and Shopping are not one shape repeated: the command word decides what the marker is looking for, and the mark value decides how much of it. These are the ones Chinese Year 8 uses.

Dux writes practice for this module in exactly these shapes, so the drill is the same task the paper sets — not a general knowledge quiz with the module name on it.

03Where this module sits

Food and Shopping in the Chinese Year 8 course

Food and Shopping opens the Chinese Year 8 course. Students routinely lose marks because a question spans two modules, so the neighbouring modules are worth reading next to this one.
