Here are some useful resources to answering inference questions in source based. These questions tend to be the easiest.
To start off, Pearson has a good guide. It tells you what examiners are looking for. (Do not worry that the actual content of the sources is not related to the Singapore syllabus. In Secondary 3 and 4 Social Studies, you may be required to answer source based questions on topics that were not directly taught. In the past, the examiners have given pictures about a conflict called the Falkland Islands War , and pictures of a US-China conflict, and asked students to make inferences about them. These are just two examples)
Here's another good example.
After reading these resources, you should have a clear idea of the requirements of scoring full marks: make appropriate inference(s) and support them with evidence.
I welcome contributions from readers.
