Sekarang ini, sangatlah mudah bagi kita untuk menjadi malas dan tidak membuat aktiviti-aktiviti yang menggunakan tenaga kita. Ini adalah disebabkan oleh teknologi baharu seperti komputer dan internet. Kebanyakan orang sering duduk di depan komputer atau komputer riba dan juga alat-alat perhubungan elektronik yang lain. Mereka berhubung dengan satu sama lain, bermain permainan, membaca buku, membuat penyelidikan tanpa perlu berjalan jauh dari komputer mereka. Dari segi perhubungan, mereka tidak perlu berjumpa dengan kawan-kawan lagi. Mereka boleh menghantar pesanan dan bersembang dengan sesiapa sahaja di serata dunia. Mereka tidak perlu berjalan jauh ke perpustakaan atau ke kedai-kedai untuk membeli buku sebab semua bahan boleh didapati dalam internet. Barang-barang rumah juga boleh dipesan melalui internet. Cara memasak makanan kegemaran kita juga boleh didapati dengan mudah. Ini antara faedah internet dan komputer zaman sekarang. Walau bagaimanapun, ada yang kurang baik. Ada orang yang tidak pandai mengurus masa dan menghabiskan banyak waktu melayari lelaman web yang tidak berfaedah. Ada bahaya pengguna internet mungkin berjumpa dan berhubung dengan orang yang mereka tidak kenal. Ramai juga orang membeli barang melalui internet. Bahayanya ialah orang lain boleh mencuri wang dari bank kita dengan menggunakan maklumat akaun kita. Kita mesti berhati-hati semasa menggunakan perkhidmatan online.

12 0546/22/M/J/17 © UCLES 2017 Bahagian 3 Latihan 1 Soalan 29–33 Semasa cuti sekolah, Arif bekerja di sebuah pejabat pelancongan. Baca rencana di bawah dengan teliti. Pengalaman saya sebagai pemandu pelancong - Arif Ahmad Saya sudah lama berminat dalam bidang pelancongan. Sejak kecil lagi saya suka melihat gambar-gambar pemandangan di negara orang. Saya suka mendengar cerita kawan-kawan yang pulang selepas bercuti di luar negeri. Jadi, saya ingin bekerja dalam bidang pelancongan apabila saya tamat sekolah. Pada pendapat saya, pekerjaan dalam bidang pelancongan memberi kita peluang untuk melancong; melihat negara orang lain, berkongsi pengalaman dan mengenali budaya mereka. Saya mendapat peluang membuat pekerjaan sambilan dalam bidang pelancongan semasa musim cuti yang lalu. Bapa saudara saya ialah seorang agen pelancongan yang membawa pelancong-pelancong dari luar negara ke tempat-tempat menarik di negara kita. Negara kita mempunyai banyak tempat-tempat yang menarik dan bersejarah. Ramai pelancong suka melawat negara kita. Bapa saudara saya mempunyai sebuah syarikat pelancongan sendiri. Dia sibuk sepanjang tahun sebab ramai pelancong datang dari Eropah, Timur Tengah dan dari negara China dan Jepun, terutama sekali semasa musim cuti sekolah di negara masing-masing. Oleh kerana dia tidak cukup pekerja, dia meminta saya menolongnya dalam bulan April lalu selama sebulan. Sebelum saya mula bekerja dengannya, saya membuat penyelidikan dan membaca tentang tempat-tempat menarik dan bersejarah di Malaysia, seperti Melaka dan Kedah. Kumpulan pelancong yang pertama yang saya bawa ke Pulau Langkawi adalah dari negara Jepun. Ada lima orang pelancong dan mereka sangat berminat tentang sejarah dan cerita-cerita rakyat Pulau Langkawi. Nasib baik saya tahu mengenai lagenda Mahsuri dan juga tentang Padang Beras Terbakar. Pada mulanya saya berasa takut dan bimbang, tetapi pengalaman ini telah menambah pengetahuan saya mengenai negara saya sendiri. Pengalaman ini juga menambah keyakinan diri saya sendiri kerana bukan sahaja saya boleh bertemu dengan orang ramai tetapi juga bertukar pendapat dengan mereka mengenai negara mereka.

14 0546/22/M/J/17 © UCLES 2017 Latihan 2 Soalan 34–39 Baca e-mel di bawah dan jawab soalan-soalan berikutnya dalam Bahasa Melayu. Julia, Saya minta maaf kerana tidak menulis sejak kami berpindah ke Geneva bulan lepas. Bapa saya mendapat pekerjaan baharu di Geneva dan kami semua terpaksa mengikutnya ke sini. Dia sudah pun memulakan pekerjaan baharunya dan ibu saya pula sibuk menyiapkan rumah kami. Saya sudah mula belajar di sebuah sekolah antarabangsa di Geneva. Sekolah ini tidak begitu jauh dari rumah saya. Pada mulanya ibu saya menghantar saya ke sekolah. Kemudian selepas saya tahu jalan, saya menggunakan bas untuk pergi dan balik dari sekolah. Sejak kami berpindah ke sini, saya sudah mendapat ramai kawan baharu. Ada juga kawan- kawan daripada masyarakat Malaysia di sini, tapi ramai juga daripada masyarakat antarabangsa sebab di sekolah saya ramai para pelajar adalah dari pelbagai negara. Di sekolah, saya juga dapat mencuba dan merasa banyak jenis makanan tempatan. Tetapi saya masih rindukan makanan Malaysia! Saya tidak ada masalah belajar sebab semua mata pelajaran diajar dalam bahasa Inggeris. Saya sudah mula belajar bercakap bahasa Perancis. Pada mulanya agak sukar sedikit, tetapi dengan bantuan kawan-kawan saya, saya mula suka bercakap bahasa Perancis. Switzerland ialah sebuah negara yang aman dan cantik. Banyak gunung yang masih ada salji. Saya dan keluarga saya pasti akan melawat dan mendaki gunung-gunung ini semasa cuti sekolah. Saya tidak sabar untuk bercuti di gunung dan mengambil gambar untuk saya hantar kepada kamu. Sekarang ini bapa saya masih sibuk dengan kerjanya. Ibu saya juga masih belum biasa dengan jalan-jalan di sini. Kami menunggu hujung minggu supaya dapat berjalan-jalan dengan bapa saya. Saya selalu ingat Julia dan kawan-kawan kita yang lain. Ramai yang menghubungi saya melalui e-mel dan berskype. Jadi, hilanglah rindu saya kepada mereka dan saya tahu apa yang mereka buat. Saya harap Julia dapat datang melawat saya di sini nanti. Jangan lupa jawab e-mel ini, ya? Mariam

It shows the basis on which Examiners were instructed to award marks. It does not indicate the details of the discussions that took place at an Examiners’ meeting before marking began, which would have considered the acceptability of alternative answers. Mark schemes should be read in conjunction with the question paper and the Principal Examiner Report for Teachers. Cambridge will not enter into discussions about these mark schemes.

0546/22 Cambridge IGCSE – Mark Scheme PUBLISHED May/June 2017 © UCLES 2017 Page 2 of 11 1 The Standardisation process 2 General Marking Notes 3 General Marking Principles 3.1 It is not possible to list all acceptable alternatives in the Detailed Mark Scheme provided in Section 4. You will need to consider all alternative answers and unexpected approaches in candidates’ scripts, make a decision on whether they communicate the required elements, in consultation with your Principal Examiner, and award marks accordingly. 3.2 Crossing out: (a) If a candidate changes his/her mind over an answer and crosses out an attempt, award a mark if the final attempt is correct. (b) If a candidate crosses out an answer to a whole question but makes no second attempt at it, mark the crossed out work. 3.3 More than the stipulated number of boxes ticked/crossed by the candidate: (a) If more than one attempt is visible, but the candidate has clearly indicated which attempt is his/her final answer (e.g. by crossing out other attempts or by annotating the script in some way), mark in the usual way. (b) If two attempts are visible (e.g. two boxes ticked instead of the 1 box stipulated), and neither has been crossed out/discounted by the candidate, no mark can be awarded. (c) Answers in pen do not take precedence over answers in pencil, e.g. if a candidate is asked to tick 1 box and ticks two, one in pen and the other in pencil, the mark cannot be awarded unless there is explicit indication from the candidate as to which is his/her final answer. 3.4 For questions requiring more than one element for the answer, (i) and (ii), where the answers are interchangeable: (a) Both correct answers on line 1 and line 2 blank = 2 (b) Both correct answers on line 1 and line 2 wrong = 1 (or vice-versa)

0546/22 Cambridge IGCSE – Mark Scheme PUBLISHED May/June 2017 © UCLES 2017 Page 3 of 11 3.5 Answers requiring the use of Malay (rather than a non-verbal response) should be marked for communication. Tolerate inaccuracies provided the message is clear. (a) ‘If in doubt, sound it out’: if you read what the candidate has written, does it sound like the correct answer? (b) Look-alike test: does what the candidate has written look like the correct answer? 3.6 Unless the Mark Scheme specifies otherwise, do not accept incorrect Malay if the word given means something else in Malay. (Incorrect Malay which constitutes a word in any language other than Malay is marked (i) on the basis of whether it is accepted or refused in the Mark Scheme and (ii) if not mentioned in the Mark Scheme, on the basis of 3.5 above). 3.7 Where words are combined or split inappropriately do not award the mark (inappropriate splitting or combination is an indication that the candidate has not understood). 3.8 Annotation used in the Mark Scheme: (a) INV = invalidation and is used when additional material included by the candidate is judged to invalidate an otherwise correct answer thus preventing him/her from scoring the mark (INV = 0). (b) tc = ‘tout court’ and means that on its own the material is not sufficient to score the mark. (c) BOD = benefit of the doubt and is used to indicate that the Examiner has considered the answer/that part of the answer and judged it to be more correct than incorrect: the benefit of the doubt is given to the candidate and the mark is awarded 3.9 No response and ‘0’ marks There is a NR (No Response) option in RM Assessor. Award NR (No Response): If there is nothing written at all in the answer space or If there is only a comment which does not in any way relate to the question being asked (e.g. ‘can’t do’ or ‘don’t know’) or If there is only a mark which isn’t an attempt at the question (e.g. a dash, a question mark). Award 0: If there is any attempt that earns no credit. This could, for example, include the candidate copying all or some of the question, or any working that does not earn any marks, whether crossed out or not.

0546/22 Cambridge IGCSE – Mark Scheme PUBLISHED May/June 2017 © UCLES 2017 Page 4 of 11 3.10 Extra material: It is the candidate’s responsibility to answer questions in such a way as to demonstrate to the Examiner that s/he has understood the reading text. Where candidates introduce extra, irrelevant material to an otherwise correct answer the danger is that the Examiner is being forced to ‘choose’ the correct answer and s/he cannot be certain that the candidate has shown understanding. Where the Examiner is put in this position the mark cannot be awarded. The Detailed Mark Scheme cannot cover all eventualities and where specific instructions are not provided, Examiners must check the reading text to ensure the correct elements which would qualify for the mark are not contradicted or distorted by any extra material. The following, general, rules should be applied: (a) Extra material, mentioned in the Mark Scheme, which reinforces the correct answer or in itself constitutes an alternative correct answer: this is acceptable and is not penalised (b) Extra material which constitutes an alternative answer, but which is not explicitly mentioned in the Mark Scheme: the Examiner needs to decide, by consulting the text and the Principal Examiner if necessary, whether the alternative answer constitutes: (i) an alternative correct answer, in which case this falls into category (a) and the answer should be rewarded (ii) or an answer which on its own would be refused, in which case this falls into category (c) and the answer should be refused (c) Extra material which constitutes an alternative answer specifically refused in the Mark Scheme: this puts the Examiner in the position of having to ‘choose’ which is the candidate’s final answer – the Examiner cannot be sure what the candidate has understood – and the mark cannot be awarded (d) Extra material which distorts or contradicts the correct answer: this affects communication – the Examiner cannot be sure what the candidate has understood – and the mark cannot be awarded (e) Extra material introduced by the candidate and which does not feature in the original text: this affects communication – the Examiner cannot be sure what the candidate has understood – and the mark cannot be awarded. It can sometimes be difficult to draw the line between what is a deduction made by an able candidate on the basis of what they have read and pure guesswork. Therefore where a particular answer is not covered in the Mark Scheme, Examiners should consult their Principal Examiner.

0546/22 Cambridge IGCSE – Mark Scheme PUBLISHED May/June 2017 © UCLES 2017 Page 8 of 11 Section 3 Look for signs of genuine comprehension. Usually, candidates who lift indiscriminately fail to demonstrate comprehension and will not score the mark. However, careful lifting of the details required to answer the question does demonstrate comprehension and should be rewarded. This Detailed Mark Scheme provides specific guidance but in cases not covered, see General Marking Principles, Section 3.10. In this section, take into account the whole of the candidate’s answer. We are still applying the sound-alike rule. READ SECTION 3: GENERAL MARKING PRINCIPLES FOR ANSWERS NOT COVERED BY MARK SCHEME, ANNOTATION TOOL MAY BE USED, e.g. INV or BOD REFUSE DIRECT SPEECH HOWEVER IT IS PRESENTED. Section 3 Exercise 1 1 Mark available per question for True or False + 1 Mark available for correction of each False statement. First award marks for the True/False element and then award marks for the justification of the False statements. True/False element: all 5 statements appear on screen. Enter mark as appropriate for correct identification of each statement as True or False. • If neither True nor False is ‘ticked’ for a question, enter N/R (no response). • If both True and False are ‘ticked’ (and there is no clarification of candidate’s ‘final’ answer), enter 0. Justification for false statements: only the 3 False statements appear on screen. • If the candidate correctly identified the statement as False, mark the justification and enter the mark • If True is ‘ticked’, award N/R (or 0 if justification is provided) • If True and False are both ‘ticked’ (and there is no clarification of candidate’s ‘final’ answer), award 0 (ignore any justification) • If neither True nor False is ‘ticked’, mark justification and enter mark (no mark awarded for True/False element)
