Correct Answer
E. Correct spelling

Explanation
A piece of writing must have a beginning, a middle, and an end in order to be considered complete and coherent. These three components help to structure the writing and provide a clear flow of ideas or information. Without a beginning, the reader may feel lost or confused about the context or purpose of the writing. The middle section develops and expands on the main ideas, providing supporting details or arguments. Finally, the end brings closure to the writing, summarizing the main points or offering a conclusion. Overall, having a beginning, a middle, and an end helps to create a well-rounded and engaging piece of writing.

- E.
  
  Crust, Inner Core and Outer Core
Correct Answer
D. Crust, Mantle and Core

Explanation
The correct answer is "Crust, Mantle and Core." The Earth is composed of several layers, with the crust being the outermost layer. The crust is the thinnest layer and is made up of solid rock. Beneath the crust is the mantle, which is a thick layer of semi-solid rock. The core is the innermost layer and is divided into the inner core and the outer core. The inner core is solid, while the outer core is liquid. These three layers play a crucial role in the structure and dynamics of the Earth.

MATHS- Work out the area of a triangle L=4cm and W=30cm
- A.
  
  15cm
- B.
  
  120cm
- C.
  
  60cm
- D.
  
  220cm
- E.
  
  50cm
Correct Answer
C. 60cm

Explanation
The area of a triangle is calculated by multiplying the length of the base by the height and dividing the result by 2. In this case, the length of the base is given as 4cm and the width (which is actually the height in this case) is given as 30cm. So, the area of the triangle can be calculated as (4cm * 30cm) / 2 = 120cm². Therefore, the correct answer is 120cm.
