Important Information

The written examination consists of two papers (Paper I and Paper II). The time allowed for Paper II is 100 minutes. The use of the Geography Atlas for Secondary Schools is allowed. A calculator can be used if necessary, but every time the steps of problem solving should also be presented. You can use compasses and rulers if necessary. You can answer the questions in any order. First, read the questions carefully, think over your answer then write your answer in ink (with a pen) in the appropriate place. You can correct your answer if necessary, but no points can be awarded for your answer in the cases of equivocal or unclear corrections, cancellations or corrections made with a pencil. Give the most adequate answers to the questions. More answers than required (e.g. naming three examples instead of the required two) are not awarded by extra points. The total number of points and the subtotals that can be awarded for tasks are shown beside/below the tasks. Please leave the grey squares blank.



1. Let us suppose that you want construct a terrestrial globe. The radius of the Earth is 6371 km. What will be the radius of the terrestrial globe if the proposed scale is 1 : 10 000 000? Do your calculations here: The radius of the terrestrial globe: ………………….. cm
