To +silent killer+

It is more important to get the skills for SBQ right, then to memorize the text. Do not memorize anything! Just remember these:
1. Inference: -
a. Use your own words for the inference;
b. Support your inference with evidence;
c. To play safe, you can quote;
d. Always give 2 inferences with valid supporting evidence and
e. Always answer to the question.
2. Reliability: -
a. First thing, write whether you find it relaible or not;
b. In the first paragraph, infer from the source and provide supporting evidence;
c. Cross refernce with 2 sources with valid supporting evidence;
d. If possible, think of who wrote it? Purpose? Audience? and lastly
e. conclude again.

That's all. All the best.

Just remember each inference must be supported by one example or evidence.

1 inference 1 support 3 marks
2 inferences 2 supports 4-5 marks

Good Luck!
