These eight original questions test the four skills in community and civic responsibilities. They ramp from sorting statements to full applied answers. Write each answer first, then open the explanation.
This practice set belongs to SPM Pendidikan Moral. Plan longer answers with the moral scenario response planner.
Questions
1. Label as right, responsibility or action: “Residents can expect the playground to be kept safe.”
Answer
A right, because it says what residents can expect. A responsibility would say who is expected to keep it safe, and an action would name a person doing something.
2. Label as right, responsibility or action: “Hafiz picks up the litter near the bench.”
Answer
An action, because it names a person doing something in a particular moment. It may also show a responsibility, but the sentence itself describes what happened.
3. Two classes want the school hall on the same afternoon for rehearsals. One booked a week earlier. Apply fairness and care in two sentences.
Answer
The class that booked first should use the hall, which is fair because the booking was made earlier. The teachers can offer the other class the hall for the next afternoon or part of the same one, which shows care for their rehearsal.
4. A residents’ group is planning a community lunch. Name the shared goal and two different contributions.
Answer
The shared goal is a lunch that every neighbour can enjoy. One contribution is planning the menu so that all neighbours can eat from it, and another is setting up the tables and cleaning afterwards. Each contribution helps the goal in a different way.
5. A student writes: “Students from a small kampung school are shy, so they should not be asked to present.” Rewrite it so it is neutral and inclusive.
Answer
“Students can be offered different ways to present, such as in pairs, with notes or after a short practice, so everyone can take part comfortably.” The rewrite removes the assumption about a group and offers choices that work for any student.
6. Neighbour A plays loud music at 11 pm. Neighbour B has a baby sleeping. Name one right, one responsibility and one action.
Answer
Right: Neighbour B can expect a quiet night for the baby. Responsibility: Neighbour A is expected to keep noise low at night. Action: Neighbour A turns down the music and Neighbour B thanks them the next day.
7. A class fundraiser needs a poster, a cashier and a cleaner. Two classmates disagree about who should do which job. Explain how they can cooperate.
Answer
They share the goal of a successful fundraiser, so they should listen to why each prefers a job. They can agree to try each job for one session, or to choose by what suits them, so both feel the arrangement is fair and the work still gets done.
8. A neighbourhood hall has one room. A group of young residents and a group of older residents both want it on Sunday morning, one for a meeting and one for exercise. Write a short answer using fairness, care, cooperation and a responsibility.
Answer
Both groups share the goal of using the hall well, so the committee should listen to each group’s need, which is cooperation. Fairness means giving each group a reasonable slot, for example the meeting from 9 to 10 and the exercise session from 10 to 11, and care means checking that the timing suits those who need more time to get ready. Each group has a responsibility to start and finish on time so the next group can use the room.
