English Paper 2 WASSCE (PC 2ND), 2020

Question 3

     

    There has been a large-scale depletion of forest reserves in your country in spite of repeated warnings by government to stop this trend. Write a letter to the Editor of one of your national newspapers condemning in strong terms this unwholesome act and suggesting at least three ways of checking further destruction.


Observation

The candidate is required to write a letter to the Editor of a national newspaper condemning in strong terms the unwholesome act of large-scale depletion of forest reserves in his/her country and suggesting at least three ways of checking further destruction. Few candidates chose this question. They demonstrated an understanding of the question as they discussed the two parts of the question (i) condemnation of the large-scale depletion of forest reserves and (ii) at least three ways of checking further destruction. However, some candidates only gave ways of checking further destruction of the forest reserves.
