Answering "In Your Own Words" Questions
This page provides a detailed guide on how to answer RUAE questions Nat 5, specifically focusing on "In Your Own Words" questions. The process is broken down into four key steps:
- Read the question carefully, highlighting or underlining the core phrase.
- Note the number of marks to determine how many points are needed.
- Find and highlight the answers in the passage.
- Translate the highlighted points into your own words, using bullet points.
Example: For a 2-mark question asking about explanations for haunted places, the answer might include:
- A deliberate scam
- A physical reason such as the weather
Highlight: Using bullet points in your answer helps to clearly separate different ideas and ensures you provide the correct number of points.
This method ensures that students can effectively demonstrate their understanding while avoiding direct quotations from the text.
Summarizing Techniques for RUAE Questions
This section expands on the summarizing techniques crucial for National 5 English RUAE question types. It reiterates the four-step process introduced earlier, emphasizing its application to summary questions:
- Carefully read and analyze the question, highlighting key phrases.
- Note the mark allocation to determine the required number of points.
- Locate and highlight relevant information in the passage.
- Rephrase the highlighted points in your own words, using bullet points for clarity.
Example: A 4-mark question about attitudes towards tourists in Scotland might require summarizing contrasting viewpoints:
- Negative: People who don't show any concern for visitors
- Positive: Some people try too hard with helping visitors
Vocabulary: Polar points - Extreme opposite viewpoints or attitudes
The page stresses the importance of identifying and rephrasing key information to demonstrate a thorough understanding of the text.
Tackling Link Questions in RUAE
This page focuses on the structure and approach to link questions, an important component of RUAE Nat 5 English bbc Bitesize resources. Link questions typically require students to:
- Explain the earlier topic in their own words
- Quote the part of the link sentence referring back to the earlier topic
- Quote the part of the link sentence looking forward to the next topic
- Explain the next topic in their own words
Example: A link question might ask about the sentence "I cannot say... grateful" in relation to the preceding and following paragraphs.
Highlight: Link questions test your ability to understand how different parts of a text connect and transition between topics.
This structured approach helps students navigate the complexities of link questions, ensuring they address all aspects required for full marks.
Mastering Analysis Questions in RUAE
The final page covers analysis questions, a crucial element in Nat 5 English RUAE techniques. These questions require students to:
- Provide a quotation showing the technique
- Explain/Analyze the quotation and answer the question
For a 4-mark question, this process is repeated twice.
Definition: Analysis questions ask you to recognize literary techniques and explain their effects.
Example: "By referring to two examples of word choice, explain how the writer gives a clear impression of the fast..."
Highlight: Successful analysis involves not just identifying techniques, but also explaining their impact on the reader's understanding or perception of the text.
This approach to analysis questions helps students demonstrate their ability to engage critically with texts, a key skill in RUAE Higher English examinations.
Understanding Questions in RUAE Nat 5 English
This section introduces the concept of understanding questions in RUAE Nat 5 English past papers. These questions are designed to test a student's comprehension of the main ideas and details within a given text. The process involves reading a passage, identifying specific ideas, and rewriting them in one's own words to demonstrate understanding.
Highlight: Understanding questions require students to prove their comprehension by rephrasing key points from the text.
Example: A typical understanding question might ask students to explain in their own words why certain places are believed to be haunted, based on information provided in the passage.
The page emphasizes the importance of careful reading and accurate paraphrasing in answering these types of questions effectively.

The app is very easy to use and well designed. I have found everything I was looking for so far and have been able to learn a lot from the presentations! I will definitely use the app for a class assignment! And of course it also helps a lot as an inspiration.

This app is really great. There are so many study notes and help [...]. My problem subject is French, for example, and the app has so many options for help. Thanks to this app, I have improved my French. I would recommend it to anyone.

Wow, I am really amazed. I just tried the app because I've seen it advertised many times and was absolutely stunned. This app is THE HELP you want for school and above all, it offers so many things, such as workouts and fact sheets, which have been VERY helpful to me personally.

I think it’s very much worth it and you’ll end up using it a lot once you get the hang of it and even after looking at others notes you can still ask your Artificial intelligence buddy the question and ask to simplify it if you still don’t get it!!! In the end I think it’s worth it 😊👍 ⚠️Also DID I MENTION ITS FREEE YOU DON’T HAVE TO PAY FOR ANYTHING AND STILL GET YOUR GRADES IN PERFECTLY❗️❗️⚠️

I found this app a couple years ago and it has only gotten better since then. I really love it because it can help with written questions and photo questions. Also, it can find study guides that other people have made as well as flashcard sets and practice tests. The free version is also amazing for students who might not be able to afford it. Would 100% recommend
