SPM English Paper 2 - Section 1

Section 1 is about writing an e-mail which is only a short communicative message with only a limitation of 80 words . In this part, you have no choice but to do it by answering directly to the point and the suggested time is 20 minutes .

Here are some of the most important tips:

  • Don’t ever miss the format, e.g. the email address, the subject, introduction, conclusion and closing part.
  • For the introduction, try to be simple and interesting to attract the readers, for example: I hope you are doing well!
  • Think about your main points by using 5W1H (What, Who, Where, When, Why, How) and keep the points concise.
  • Do remember to make closing and signature, e.g. I am looking forward to speaking to you next time! Bye!

Example Question:

You received an email from your friend, Amanda who is planning a trip during the school holidays.

What are you doing during your school holidays? My family and I are planning a trip to Langkawi Island. You went there with your family last year, didn’t you? How was your trip? What did you do there? Are there any places we should go?

Do let me know.

This is an example question. In this question, it asks about how the trip is and some suggestions about the holidaymakers in Langkawi. Do take note that you are writing to Amanda.

Sample Answer:

To: [email protected]

Subject: A Trip to Langkawi Island.

We had so much fun there! It is suggested to take a cable car and go up to the Langkawi Sky Bridge where the view is breathtaking! Why don’t you go on an island hopping tour to Pulau Dayang Bunting? The island looks like a silhouette of a pregnant woman lying down and trying to swim in the freshwater lake there! You may visit Pulau Beras Basah and relax on the soft sandy beach! You’ll enjoy it!

THINGS TO REMEMBER!!!

  • Try to be simple and easy to understand! Don’t make things complicated.
  • For the sample essay above, it is not necessary to suggest or recommend so many places, a few will do.
  • Be careful with grammar and spelling as this can lead you to lose marks.

SPM English Paper 2 - Section 2

  • Include a title or/and write your name.
  • The suggested time for the essay is 30 minutes.

Essay Guidelines

INTRODUCTION

  • State some general problem statements, e.g. Malaysians were reported to read an average of two pages per year since 2005 which is rather disappointing. Knowing how significant it will have a tendency to affect the entire nation, it is high time we should discuss the benefits of reading newspapers as well as its usefulness.

1 st POINT:

  • Reading newspapers is a good source of information in terms of news, sports, general issues and international issues.
  • One should prefer to get news from a more reliable source such as a newspaper.
  • It keeps us informed of all the latest world events on war, economy, political issues and celebrity gossips.
  • Be better equipped to form opinions on things currently happening around us.

2 nd POINT:

  • It is a useful tool to enhance the command of our languages.
  • Served as a reliable source to expand English vocabulary.
  • One can improve English by reading passage aloud.
  • Newspaper articles prompt you to think critically – to form opinions- help students to gain more linguistic confidence which will be expressed in writing and conversation.

3 rd POINT:

  • It can broaden our general knowledge.
  • It conveys information about politics, economy, business, trade and commerce.
  • We become updated with current events locally and internationally.
  • -enable one to take part in group discussions which make you feel that you belong to an enlightened society.
  • In conclusion, there are many benefits people can gain from reading newspapers.
  • It should be a necessity rather than an option.
  • Such a habit should be inculcated from young.

SPM English Paper 2 - Section 3

Section 3 is writing one of the questions from the given choices.

  • There is a word limitation of 200-250 words and students should write their essays in an appropriate style (based on their choices). The suggested time to complete the essay is around 40 minutes .
  • Recently, there will be four types of questions in which they will only come out with three different types of essay as the choices for students : ARTICLE, REVIEW, NARRATIVE ESSAY & REPORT .
  • Provide reasonable opinions and focus more on the quality of your writing!
  • Take note of the vocab and grammar you use in which most of the time, students will lose their marks.
  • Always remember!!! An essay includes INTRODUCTION + 3 POINTS + CONCLUSION . Don’t ever miss one of them!

HERE is some tips when writing essays:

Long Essay Guidelines

INTRODUCTION:

  • It is better to expose the current issue or crisis that can attract the reader. Elaborate more on how the current topic has a significant effect on people/ surrounding. Hence, it is high time we should highlight …
  • Sometimes, you may use idioms/ adages as your opening to make your essay more attractive! E.g. As an old adage goes, “Health is wealth” and this goes to show how vital that each and every of us should have a healthy body in which the topic we are discussing today should not be hidden from the public .
  • Directly tell the reader the problem and the discussion of this topic, e.g. how can it be solved? / here is some useful tips for handling such condition./ Hence, we shall now discuss some of the reasons why we ought to …
  • Don’t write too long!
  • At least, you should have prepared three main points! Try to sketch your ideas out before you start writing so that you may have a clear mindset of what you are writing instead of going halfway wrong.
  • Use the word connection for a better connection of your sentences: First and foremost, Next, Moreover, Furthermore, Moving on, Instead, In conclusion, Last but not least…
  • Try to be formal: It is said that…/ It is always being discussed that…/ Thus, the highlighted topic provides us…/ It is said without fear of…
  • Use some attractive vocabulary & idioms if you can!
  • Elaborate your main points using this formula:
  • Deep reason? Why again
  • A little more about the discussion: using idioms/vocab to highlight it
  • Conclusion for this idea
  • It is said that having sufficient rest and sleep do help us maintain good health and inculcate lifelong health habits. According to a survey conducted recently, students seem to face strenuous homework and dreadful exams if they do not have enough sleep and rest, thus, they could not cope with their studies easily. Lack of sleep may lead us to lots of exposed problems, for example impairing attention. As an old adage, “Rest well for accomplishing a longer journey”. Thus, we should have enough rest and sleep in order to give us more energy to welcome a brand new day of challenge.
  • The above sample might be a bit long, yet, it is perfect enough in transferring the message in a very complete way.

CONCLUSION:

  • For the conclusion part, it is suggested that students should conclude once again all the points you have mentioned above. Then, adding your hope or maybe some roles of related authority like parents and school, what they can do to improve the condition.
  • You may add on idioms and phrases at last as your closing to attract the reader.
  • In conclusion, there are many benefits one can gain from reading newspapers and this is the reason why this habit should be inculcated from young. Thus, school should play their roles by working closely with parents to get involved in reading newspapers with their children at home for the sake of their future.

Tips on How to Tackle the SPM English Papers 1 & 2

Tips on How to Tackle the SPM English Papers 1 & 2 - StudyMalaysia.com

SPM English Papers 1 & 2

In line with the Kurikulum Standard Sekolah Menengah (KSSM), the new SPM format for SPM English is more comprehensive and covers all aspects of English learning. Since the new format is adapted from the Common European Framework of Reference (CEFR) it is similar to the Cambridge English paper and the grading will also follow the CEFR Measuring system.

The aspirational target for SPM leavers would be level B2 where they are equipped with adequate English for further studies and later on career enhancement.

Basic Users

  • level A1 (Elementary/Beginner)
  • level A2 (Pre-Intermediate/Elementary)

Independent Users

  • level B1 (Intermediate/Pre-Intermediate)
  • level B2 (Upper Intermediate/Intermediate)

Proficient Users

  • levels C1 and C2 (Advanced)

CEFR Grading for SPM will be only up to B2.

Basically any English test is about understanding what you’re reading. Thus you should take time to comprehend what you’re reading and accomplish the task according to what is asked for.

SPM Paper 1

Paper I tests Reading and Use of English. It consists of 5 parts. The time allocated is 90 minutes. (40 marks)

Part 1: 8 Multiple Choice Questions consisting of short texts from books, magazines, advertisements etc. Candidates will choose the best answer from 3 choices given for each question. (8 marks)

ADVICE: Very quickly read through the question before reading the text given. This gives you an idea of what you will be looking for in the text. After this go through all the three options given before deciding on the answer. Make sure you read all the options as there may be slight differences in the answers given.

Part 2: Cloze Passage. You should try to get all the 10 answers correct. The passage tests you on grammar and vocabulary. There are 4 options given for each blank. (10 marks)

ADVICE: Do not attempt to fill in the gaps on your first reading of the text. First, read through the text quickly to see what it is about and determine the tense or tenses required for the text. Then go to the answers given and determine the right word for each blank.

Part 3: Here you will need to read a longer passage and answer 8 questions related to the text. This is of course a test on reading comprehension. (8 marks)

ADVICE: Take time to read the text carefully before going on to the questions. Some of the questions direct you to specific paragraphs to look for the answers. For other questions, look for key words to enable you to zoom in to the right paragraphs to look for the answers. Once again read through all the options given before deciding on your answer.

Part 4: In this section you are given a longer text from which six sentences have been removed. You have to choose the 6 correct sentences from among 8 choices given to fill in the gaps to form a correctly structured paragraph. (6 marks).

ADVICE: Here is where you have to apply your skills on ‘coherence and cohesion’ to find the correct sentence to fill the blank. Your sentence should blend in smoothly with the sentences before and after the blank.

Part 5: You are given a few paragraphs on a certain topic to read. You are given four statements which describe 4 of the paragraphs given. You have to identify the 4 paragraphs to fit the statements given. For the next 4 questions you are required to find words (one word each from the text) to complete the 4 sentences given. (8 marks)

ADVICE: Read the short texts carefully and determine the main idea in each text. This will help you decide to pick the statement which best describes the text.

SPM Paper 2

This essay and writing paper is worth 60 marks. However, the weightage in the overall SPM English paper is still at 25%. The time allocated for this paper is 90 minutes and the paper has 3 parts.

Part 1 - Students are required to write a short note or email in less than 80 words. (20 marks)

ADVICE: Read the email or short note carefully and underline the tasks given to you so that you will not miss out on any point. For example the task set out may want you to suggest

  • a place to visit
  • some activities to be done there (give a few - about three)
  • things to bring (suggest a few - about three)

As you have only 80 words to juggle with, you must go straight to the point with a little elaboration if necessary.

Part 2 - This is Directed Writing in 125 - 150 words. (20 marks)

ADVICE: In this question, notes will be given to you to guide you on what to write. Whatever it is, the golden rule is to give at least three to four suggestions so that there will be enough subject matter for you to write about. Here you may need to give your opinion or provide proof for your suggestions. Do not write longer than required.

Part 3 - In this section, you are given 3 choices for a descriptive writing

(report/review/article/story). You will need to choose I essay to write in 200 - 250 words. (20 marks)

ADVICE: This essay calls for all your writing skills. Quickly mind-map four to five main points you want to talk about in your essay. For each point briefly jot down elaborations/examples/reasons to expand the point. Then organise your paragraphs with each main point as your topic sentence for each paragraph. Think of a good introduction and conclusion. The introduction and the conclusion should not be too lengthy.

For the writing task, you will be assessed on

task achievement - Have you answered according to what is required by the question?

What are your key points? Do you support your key points with proof or definite opinion?

coherence and cohesion - Are all your paragraphs part of a whole? Does each of the

paragraph have a key point? Do all the sentences in each paragraph talk about the key point? Use cohesive devices like thus, therefore, moreover, furthermore, on the contrary ... etc to help you.

vocabulary - You will need to show you have a wide range of vocabulary at your disposal. A wide vocabulary enables you to write better essays. To acquire a wide vocabulary you need to read books, magazines and newspapers. When you come across any good words or expressions jot them down in your vocabulary book. Learn how to use these words or expressions in the right contexts. Try not to use descriptive words more than twice in the same essay. For example:

Last holiday my whole family went for a very interesting trip to the East Coast. We stayed at an interesting holiday resort. While we were there we joined a lot of interesting activities.

Writing a paragraph like the above will show your limited vocabulary usage.

grammar - Make sure to use the correct tenses throughout your writing. Punctuations

are equally important as a wrong punctuation may contribute to misunderstanding.

5. sentence structures - Your writing should show

  • variety in sentence structures ( There should be a combination of simple, compound and complex sentences in your essay. Make sentences of different lengths and with different beginnings.)
  • vivid and interesting sentences - Write interesting sentences by adding adjectives to nouns, adverbs to verbs, adjective phrases and clauses. Students should learn how to use synonyms, idioms, figurative language, similes, proverbs etc. Avoid making spelling mistakes.

use of direct speech or quotes - Wherever possible adding a quote or a direct speech can break the monotony in your essay.

Do your best!

After years of studying, your success will be measured by your performance in this coming examination. Best wishes from us at STUDYMALAYSIA!

SPM English 2021 Format

  • 01. The Perks of The Latest 2021 SPM English Format
  • 02. The Aims of SPM English 2021 Examination
  • 03. SPM 2021 Examination’s Breakdown and English Essay Format

In March 2020 last year, the Malaysia Ministry of Education (MOE) has announced that all the Form Four students will follow the new English format following the Malaysia High School Standard Curriculum (KSSM), starting from 2020. This new format will be used for the Malaysia High School Degree (SPM) 2021 examination.

As you may know, English is one of the core subjects in Malaysia. This new format will be aligned with the Common European Framework of Reference (CEFR), which is an international standard for describing language ability.

This implementation can be seen as a significant effort to reform the English language education system in the country for the better. In my opinion, these changes are a good thing for all Malaysian students.

It is believed, through comprehensive studies on the experiences of other countries that have implemented CEFR, there are pieces of evidence that this new format could enhance the English language teaching and learning process.

So, you do not need to freak out about how the examination format changes as the government have gradually implemented the new format for in-class teaching and learning ever since 2014!

Thus, in 2020, this new format will finally be used in the examination too!

Here, take a look at the Malaysia Government’s Press Release For SPM on the implementation of the latest SPM 2021 Format.

Robert

The Perks of The Latest 2021 SPM English Format

learning english group lesson

I can confidently say to all SPM 2021 candidates, ‘You are lucky!’ . The new SPM format is so much easier to score an ‘A’, especially for the English paper . Are you wondering why?  

Let’s take a look at the comparison shown in the table below.

Comparison Between the Latest SPM Examination and the Previous SPM Prior to 2021 (Superprof)

You must be thinking, why did I say that the new SPM Format is easier when you need to sit in for more papers just for the English subject?

Well, as I said earlier on this blog, the government has started implementing this format in classroom teaching and learning session for quite some time. So, this is actually NOT a new thing. You are more than familiar with this format already.

Secondly, the marks for each paper will be broken down into four papers instead of 2 papers. Definitely, it will become easier for you to score! How so?

Each student has different capabilities. Some are good only in written examinations such as writing and reading, whilst some others are more comfortable with speaking and listening.

The latest SPM format is more comprehensive and covers all aspects of English learning. So, you should be relieved that you might get more marks on the papers that you are good at.

Again, ‘You are lucky!’ Just so you know, the new English Format will be preparing you for a life-long English Learning process.

Once you step into higher education, whether into a university, college or academy, you will still have to take English subject as a second language. However, the format for the English course will be the same as what you have learnt at school.

If you would like to study further in a local undergraduate programme, you must take the Malaysian University English Test (MUET) since English will be used as a teaching and learning medium.

Besides, if you wish to further study abroad, you would need to take an English test too, either the  International English Language Testing System (IELTS) or the Test of English as a Foreign Language (TOEFL).

Can’t you see how lucky you are now? Some of the previous generations had difficulties adjusting to the changes once they entered a higher level education institution. The English format that they have learnt at school was vastly different from the format they teach at universities or college.

These changes are actually beneficial for the current students as it will give them an early preparation for the world ahead, whether in their studies or at work.

The Aims of SPM English 2021 Examination

According to the Curriculum Development Division (2018), the aims of CEFR is to enable pupils to communicate confidently, proficiently and competently; be knowledgeable, respectful of other cultures and well-versed in emergent literacies; make calculated decisions through critical and analytical thinking, and collaborate with others to solve problems creatively and innovatively in the real world”

English 1119 has been accepted throughout the world as a test for non-native English speakers. This exam targeted Level B1 and B2 in the CEFR. There will be a combination of pre-test, trials and expert judgement to ensure that the examination will measure the difficulty at the B1 – B2 level accurately.

Don’t get depressed if you obtained a B2 result as it is actually a higher grade than B1. The CEFR level sequences are not like our standard grade which A1 is the highest. Take a look at how CEFR grades work below.

CEFR language level framework

The grading system on CEFR from the lowest A1 to the highest C2 and also IELTS standard from band 1 until band 9 (Superprof)

The English CEFR Level for high school standard is only up to B2. This system has been broadly used to measure the language level of foreign language learners.

Basically, these levels are based on the ability of students to communicate and understand English. These abilities cover 5 language skills which are as follows.

  • Making conversation (Spoken Interaction)
  • Replying to the conversation (Spoken Production)

SPM 2021 Examination’s Breakdown and English Essay Format

You have just been brief by Superprof on the latest SPM Examination 2021 Format. In this chapter, you will understand further the breakdown of SPM English Examination. Have a look at the table below.

Getting ready for final exam

Basically, you will have to sit in 4 papers solely for the English subject. These papers will evaluate the level of your language on several skill sets.

Paper 1 is to evaluate the reading and comprehension of students. There are 40 questions in multiple-choice objectives, multiple form objectives and limited response. You can look at Sample Paper 1, SPM 2021. 

Paper 2  is a writing paper where you will have to write 3 essays. The first and second essays is a limited response essay, whilst the third question is an open response essay where you can choose 1 title to write. Here is Sample Paper 2, SPM 2021.

Paper 3  is a speaking test. You will take this test with another student. There are 3 parts for this test, the first and second part needs to be answered individually, whilst in the last part, you will need to make conversation with your partner. Get a Sample Paper 3, SPM 2021 here.

Paper 4  is a listening test where you will need to listen to a conversation and answer the questions given. Find out here for Sample Paper 4, SPM 2021.

You need to bear in mind that every language learner is not always at the same level in language skill -   your writing may be a lot stronger than your speaking capabilities, or your reading might be better than your grammatical accuracy.

The breakdown of the English subject into 4 papers can level out your grade. It seems more fair, right?

Besides, the progress speed is different between individuals so it is not very helpful if you keep comparing yourself with other people. These divisions can help you set a realistic goal to identify your weak section and focus more on that particular skill set.

To sum up this article, I have mentioned this many times earlier in this article, you are very lucky to be the next SPM candidate as the format has gotten more comprehensive.

The latest SPM English Grades can be used for applying to any college or scholarship programme that needs you to have a CEFR certificate up to level B2.

Yes, you will get another certificate for SPM English GCE-O Level (1119). This is the result graded according to the British standard. This certificate has been given to all other SPM leavers before the year 2021.

However, the framework of the exams is not as comprehensive as the latest 2021 SPM Format. Be rest assured, your SPM GCE-O Certificate will be more trusted and of higher quality compared to the previous format.

We, from the previous generation, say that our certificate does not have much good for us, it is just a lousy indicator of our English level. Fingers crossed, yours will be 1000 times better!

Good Luck in your high school final year!

Your writing has been very helpful. Thanks a bunch!

Hi… I would like to know.. if a student scores A+ for her English in SPM… what is the CEFR equivalent level?

A+ does not reflect his/ her CEFR result. Mine got A but my CEFR is B2.

MELICA PART 8: EMAIL WRITING FOR GALUS/HALUS SPM 1119 CANDIDATES: MODEL ESSAYS 7, 8 AND 9

email essay format spm 2021

Lower intermediate candidates have been expressing their gratitude for MELICA. After reading the model essays shared in Part 1 till Part 7, most of the galus/halus candidates feel they are getting more confident to write essays in SPM 1119/2. I truly hope similar sentiment is expressed by the weak SPM 1119 candidates elsewhere too.

At this final stage of making preparations for SPM examination, I hope MELICA can still assist the candidates to continue making their preparations till the finishing line. The least thing to do is to read and understand each sample question and examine each model answer. Critical examinations of the model answers in terms of ideas, cohesive devices, paragraphing and elaborations, can reinforce candidates’ good preparations for the writing paper. The following are the model answers which teachers can adopt and adapt to suit their realities; needs, context, learning and teaching styles, availability of time and pupils’ readiness.

You must answer this question.

You received an email from Zack, your cousin, who will have a one-month school holiday.

As you know, my one-month holiday will start next week. I plan to learn how to cook. Who do you think should teach me how to cook? How long should I learn to cook? What kinds of dishes should I focus on and why?

Appreciate your suggestions. Bye!

Write an email to your friend in about 80 words . Write your answer below.

To: [email protected]

From: [email protected]

Subject: Cooking

You want to cook during school holiday? Great! Sorry, I know your mother is lazy to cook. Therefore, you should learn to cook from your grandmother. She is a good cook. Besides, her foods are awesome!

How long? Well, I think you need at least two weeks. Soon, you will be like a chef. Why don’t you learn to cook fried rice first? Then, chicken curry because I know you love it so much. Moreover, it is so simple to cook them.

Do share with me some photos of your dishes. Bye. [94 words]

You received an email from your best friend, Ismee, who plans to celebrate his grandfather’s birthday.

Help me please! I need ideas to celebrate my grandfather’s 75th birthday next month. Where shall I have the birthday party? Who should be invited? How can I make his birthday party awesome?

Hope to get some ideas from you. Bye!

To: [email protected]

From: [email protected]

Subject: Awesome Party

Hi, Ismee. Wow! Your grandfather will be 75 years old! You should plan a great party for him. Have it at Mantop Café because it has a big room. Furthermore, the food is great!

Why don’t you invite your grandfather’s old friends? Of course, family members must be there too. Don’t forget Uncle John, your grandfather’s best friend.

I think you know all his favourite songs. Maybe all your family members should sing together his most favourite song. I am sure the party will be memorable.

Send my love to your grandfather. Bye. [96 words]

You received an email from your close friend, Shelly, who likes to change her hobby from time to time.

I think it is time for me to explore and try a new hobby. What hobby do you think I should try? How much will this hobby cost? What are the benefits of this hobby?

Sorry to trouble you but I need your advice. Bye!

To: [email protected]

From: [email protected]

Subject: New Hobby

You need a new hobby? What has happened to reading romance novels? Well, perhaps you should take photos. It is a great hobby. Moreover, you love to travel and take photos.

I think photography may not cost much. You just use what you have. Your smart phone is already good. You don’t need a new camera.

Taking photos has many benefits. I believe you can improve your creativity. To take great photos, you must be creative too. In addition, you can make others admire nature more when they look at your beautiful photos.

Do tell me about your new hobby! Bye. [106 words]

You're welcome....All the best in your SPM!

dude tf haha

Kitzma Kits ma as*

i hope i can do this essay for my exam tomorrow

and is it wentt well bro ?

I’m leaving my essay here in case it may be of a help to you guys :). I don’t write the title because this is in the comment section. We live in an age where schools can be considered as a second home to the adolescents considering the fact that they spend over 8 hours a day at school. Therefore, we need to constantly ensure the school canteen is in a good state in terms of cleanliness and the quality of the food served so that the students can dine comfortably. To implement this, there are some changes that need to be done in order to achieve an elevated canteen experience. First of all, I firmly believe that our canteen should serve a variety of healthy and hearty meals so that the picky bunch would stop skipping their meals. For instance, they can choose to serve refreshing salads, succulent fruits and dairy products that are rich in calcium and probiotics. Not only that, this would also indirectly promotes a healthy lifestyle to the students which can help them to stay fit as a fiddle. Moving on, our canteen should also be more accessible and inclusive to all of our students. Subsequently, they ought to provide special facilities to the disabled students and vegan food options for the vegan students. On top of that, we certainly need to appreciate our canteen for providing us a TV so that the students would actually stay in the canteen during recess instead of wandering around the school mindlessly. All things considered, it’s clear to us that school canteen plays a vital role in encouraging our adolescents to practise a balanced diet. After all, a sensible diet is essential in conserving one’s health which perfectly fits with the aphorism a stitch in time saves nine.

What in the english lexicon. This is exactly what im hoping to see when im searching spm essay example. What a lavish way to flex.

Wonderful! Thanks ya!
