Page 155, set 4, page 155, in the first first table, the
symbol should be a dollar not a euro sign
Page 168, set 11, question 2, Table for House Price Index: the
percentages for New Zealand should be negative.
Page 169, set 13, question 2. Option "A" appears 5 times
instead of A, B, C, D, E.
Page 170, set 15: the header for the second table should say:
Gross disposable income of households (million euros)
Page 226, set 24, question 2. Change the word ‘protein’ to
‘fat’ (also in the explanation) : How much more fat content
was produced in 2022 in Finland due to a higher fat content
percentage as compared to the fat content that would have been
produced in 2022 had the fat content percentage stayed at the
level of 2018 (in tonnes).
Page 239, set 33, question 3: the correct answer is B, not C,
and the calculation should say “option B is closest in
value”.
Page 254, line 8 below Rule #2 should say "option E" not
“option C"
Page 280, question 19, the 5th image should contain a 6-sided
black polygon (because 10 quadrilaterals - 4 triangles = 6),
and the sentences: "nine rectangles, four triangles and a
black pentagon in the corner" has to be changed to "ten
rectangles, four triangles and a black hexagon in the corner";
"We will verify the fifth figure now. 9 rectangles minus 4
triangles = a five-sided black shape (i.e., a pentagon)" has
to be changed to "We will verify the fifth figure now. 10
rectangles minus 4 triangles = a six-sided black shape (i.e.,
a hexagon)
Page 285, question 24, right column: "In option C, both the
colour..." should read " In option D...." (Note: this question
is not in the November 2024 print edition/ebook)

SET 40, Q1. Correct Answer: E
We need to calculate the total amount of fat consumed and then calculate the daily consumption.
We need to work out the total amount of fat consumed, which is the amount per person (both saturated and unsaturated), multiplied by the number of people. This gives: (2.44 + 2.19) × 60120 = 278356 This is now in kg/year and we want the daily rate, so we divide by 365 days/year: 278356 / 365 = 762.6 kg/day
You must be careful at this point not to think you have finished the question and mark option B as the correct answer, because you still have to correct the order of magnitude. The population is in thousands so we need to multiply by 1000, giving us 762600 kg per day. The answer options expressed in kg are much lower figures than this, but if we divide by 1000, to convert kg to tonnes, we get 762.6 tonnes, which is option E.
– Question 13 (page 49): instead of options, it directly gives the answers.
Correct questions:
A. The bridge above a valley in the Shiniuzhai National
Geological Park was entirely rebuilt to make it safer than the
original wooden bridge.
B. The Shiniuzhai National Geological Park’s bridge and the
bridge in the Zhangjiajie Grand Canyon area are designed by
architect Haim Dotan.
C. China is the only country to build features like these
dizzying structures.
D. The bridge above a valley in the Shiniuzhai National
Geological Park is 300 metres long and made of glass panes
that are 24mm thick.
