Every sheet in February 1977
The same date always regenerates the same five questions, so a sheet you print today is the sheet a classmate prints tomorrow.
- 1st February 1977In which mountain range does Nepal lie, making it prone to earthquakes?
- 2nd February 1977Name one piece of evidence, other than ice cores, that scientists use to study past climate.
- 3rd February 1977Name one type of certification scheme that labels timber from sustainably managed forests.
- 4th February 1977A pie chart shows land use split into farmland 60%, woodland 25% and urban 15%. Calculate the angle for the farmland sector.

- 6th February 1977Give one example of a bottom-up development strategy.
- 7th February 1977Put these parts of a rainwater-harvesting system in the order water passes through them: storage tank, roof, filter, guttering.
