The questions refer to a separate Sources booklet (the Section I article, the Section II discharge table, the Section III population pyramids and tables, the Section IV and V photos and satellite image, the Section VI photos). That booklet is not in the archive, so several questions cannot be answered from this page alone.

The mark for each question is given at the start of the question, eg. 3m = 3 marks.

- Give only the required number of answers (reasons, examples, et cetera).
For instance, if the question asks for two reasons and you give more than two, only the first two reasons will be marked.
Answer all questions in the spaces provided in the Question and Answer Booklet.
Check the backs of the pages as questions sometimes continue on the back of a page.
Fill in your name and team on the front page AND in the box on top of each page of the Question and Answer Booklet.
The Sources booklet contains the maps and figures referred to in the questions.
