This document provides guidance for improving answers on a mock social studies test. It discusses answering multiple choice and written response questions correctly by making inferences supported by evidence from given sources, focusing answers on the question asked, and avoiding lifting from sources. For question 1a about effects of gambling, it demonstrates making two inferences - that gambling benefits Singapore financially but also creates social problems supported by increased addiction. For question 1b on whether Singaporeans objected to integrated resorts, it shows analyzing two sources to cross reference and infer that Singaporeans did object to the building of integrated resorts. The document aims to help students learn to answer social studies questions more effectively.
