Dear Anon,

Further to what I had mentioned; we can draw a parallel to taking an examination or (test).

For example: A person is taking a language examination (e.g. a second language other than the mother tongue such as Spanish or Mandarin.)

In order to pass this examination we have to take the following tests:-

The Mandarin Examination paper comprises:-

SECTION 1:
1. An Oral conversation test. (10 marks out of 100 marks)

Objective: This test is to show our ability to speak or converse in Mandarion.

SECTION 2:
2. An essay test. (40 marks out of 100 marks)

Objective: This test is to test our ability to write in mandarion.

SECTION 3:
3. A final exam paper consisting of multiple choice questions and fill in the blanks. (50 marks out of 100 marks)

Objective: To test our understanding of commonly used words and grammar and vocabuary of mandarin.

4. Thus, such a test has three sections:

SECTION 1 = 10 marks
SECTION 2 = 40 marks
SECTION 3 = 50 marks
Total marks= 100 marks.

5. Thus, if say, the equivalent Flying Star `examinations' is under Section 3 = 50 marks, it is often not possible for us to score the FULL 50 marks.

6. We can still fail this examination if we fail miserably under Section 1 (10 marks) and Section 2 (40 marks).

Warmest Regards,
Cecil
