Test Tomorrow
Tomorrow we have a test, which thank God it is multiple choice. This will be our second test and even though I did good on the first test, I would like to do much better on this one. Today we reviewed even more, with Demetri as our teacher. He wasn't there yesterday so we went over some of the same things and then we played a review game that Demetri came up with. We spilt the room into two teams and one person from each team would go against each other and try to write an answer down on the board the fastest. All of the questions were fairly easy and only one or two were from the first unit. They were about the things we talked about yesterday like, prime meridian, international date line, time zones, regions, absolute and relative location, etc. My team won by a lot. The question I answered was "what is the difference between the Mercator map and the Peters map?" I said that the Mercator is wrong and is way more distorted than the Peters map. My answer was partially right because the Mercator isn't completely wrong, but it is more distorted. The person I was going against put the same thing but without the wrong part. I wrote it down first, but Demetri couldn't read the word "distorted" on mine so we did a tie breaker. The tie breaker was "name a region that has Chinese as its predominate language", at first I wrote functional region, which makes no sense, but then I wrote Beijing and got the point. I think the game was helpful and I believe I am going to do very well on my test tomorrow.
