What is in a name paragraph?
POINT: [THIS FACTOR] CAUSES/DOES NOT CAUSE [_____]
EVALUATE:
EXPLAIN + EXAMPLE: Give a named example.
Singapore has an extremely high water demand due to its large population size.
With a high population size, the demand for water will be correspondingly high as people consume water.
To illustrate, Singapore has a population size of 5.24million people, and is one of the most densely populated countries in the world.
P
EE
LINK: Link back to the pointL Thus, water demand will increase.

Question: “Only countries with dry climates experience water shortage.” Do you agree with this statement? Give an example to support your answer. [3]
POINT
EXAMPLE
EXPLAIN
How to answer open-ended questions?
I do not agree with this statement as countries with wet climates can also experience water shortage. [1]• Malaysia, a tropical country with high rainfall, faced a water
shortage earlier this year due to climate change.• Taiwan, despite having a wet climate, uses a lot more water than
the US (271L vs 250L) due to agriculture. [1]
LINKThus, not all countries with dry climates would experience water shortage. [1]
As such, we see how having a wet climate might not be automatically mean that the demand for water is safely accounted for.
