I thought the Handling Information was fine (I might have got a 1 in it) but I struggled with KU and might have got a 2 but I really wanted two 1’s. these are the ones I struggled with (Please tell me answers you got and please tell me if you think these are right) I really appreciate it. ![]()
What are three health benefits of breast feeding.
- provides important antibodies for the baby to help fight infections
- provides essential nutrients e.g. protein to help the baby to grow properly
(i couldnt think up any more so i came up with this stupid one thats not even to do with health)
- It is the correct temperature for the baby so will not burn the baby
(Do you think any of these are right.)
The next one I was really stuck on was.
Name ways you can save money in the home on essential expenditure.
I put really stupid things. and I remembered the answers after the exam. It is install draft excluders, double glazing stuff like that. but look at the stupid things I came up with.
- when buying electrical equipment you should buy packages that come with 2 or more appliances e.g. toaster, kettle, etc. because this is often cheaper than buying them seperately
-when buying toiletries, kitchen roll etc. you should buy supermarket brands because these are usually cheaper than buying own brands and often as good quality.
Please tell me if you think they will accept those.
The other one I didnt know was about the Trading officer
I wrote.
- makes sure items are not falsely described
- makes sure items are fit for the purpose e.g. safe.
I think that is wrong
Those are the only one’s I was stuck on. but near the end I was really running out of time and I just glanced at the last question and saw the words ’store’ and ‘poisoning’ so I wrote:
- store medicine and chemicals in a locked cupboard out of the reach of children
- store chemicals in a properly labelled bottle (e.g. don’t store them in juice bottles) as someone could mistake these as a drink and consume them causing poisoning
But. my friend said that it was how to store FOOD. Please tell me the exact question if you can remember and what you wrote because I didn’t read it properly.
So. overall I thought it was a hard paper but some of them was just because I didnt even read the question properly and I am annoyed. I really wanted two 1’s. ![]()
What did you think. Please share answers.
Thanks if you have bothered to read all this.
