1 Topic 1: Physical Features: Natural topography, Drainage system 1 (a) Study Fig. 1, a physical map of Bangladesh (i) Name the two rivers marked A and B. [2] (ii) Name the area marked C. [1] (iii) There are three main types of plain. These are numbered 1, 2 and 3 on the map. Name each type of plain. [3] (iv) For either area 1 or area 2, explain how this type of plain was formed. You may use a diagram to support your answer. [4] 2009 its valley. 1 (a) Study Fig. 1, which shows some features of a river and (i) Name each of the features labelled A, B and C. Choose your answers from the following list: Slipoff slope, Ribbon lake, Ox-bow lake, Moraine, Delta, River cliff. [3] (ii) Describe the processes that are taking place at each of the places marked X and Y. [4] (iii) Explain how the feature labelled as C was formed. Credit will be given for an accurate diagram. [4] (b) Study Fig. 2 opposite, a map showing the main rivers of Bangladesh and the areas most suitable for agriculture. (i) Name the river marked D. [1] (ii) Describe the distribution of land most suitable for agriculture. [3] (iii) Explain why each of areas F and G is less suitable for agriculture. [4] 1
2 (c) Study the following statement: Rivers are Bangladesh s principal resource but also its greatest hazard. (i) Give one piece of evidence which supports the idea of rivers being the principal resource. [1] (ii) Give one piece of evidence which supports the idea of rivers being the greatest hazard. [1] (iii) What do you consider to be the best way of reducing the hazards? Give reasons for your answer. [4] (a) Study Photograph A on the Insert, which shows a satellite image of part of Bangladesh. (i) Name the river marked as A. [1] (ii) Name the landform marked as B. [1] (iii) Describe the landscape of the area which is marked by the broken line ( ) and labelled C. [3] (iv) Explain how the feature C was formed. [4] (v) The sea appears in three different colours along the line X Y. Suggest an explanation for this. [2] (vi) Why is the area marked D very good for fish? [3]
3 1 (a) Study Fig. 1, a map showing the main rivers of Bangladesh. Name the rivers marked A, B, C and D. [4] (b) Study Fig. 2, which shows a small area of the Jamuna river. (i) Describe the patterns of: water channels and vegetation that are shown on this map. [4] (ii) What difficulties are faced by the people who live close to this river? [3] (iii) Explain the causes of the braiding of rivers like the Jamuna. [4] 3
4 (a) Study Fig. 1, which shows higher land in Bangladesh. (i) Name the areas of high land labelled A and B. [2] (ii) Describe the distribution of high land in Bangladesh. [3] (iii) Describe the human and physical characteristics of area B. [5] (b) Study Fig. 2, which shows a cross-section of a river and its flood plain. (i) Using Fig. 2 to help you, explain how levées are formed. [4] (ii) Explain where the silt and alluvium come from. [2] (c) Study Photograph A. Describe and explain what is happening to the river bank shown in Photograph A. [4] (d) Study the two statements below. A Rivers are the life-blood of Bangladesh. B Rivers are Bangladesh s sorrow. (i) Give one piece of evidence which supports statement A. [1] (ii) Give one piece of evidence which supports statement B. [1] (iii) Which statement do you agree with the most? Give reasons for your answer. [3] (a) Study the map of Bangladesh (Fig. 1) and name the following features. 4
5 area A, river B, main crop grown in area C, power generated at D, hills E [5] 2 (a) (i) Study Photograph A on the Insert, which is a satellite image of part of the Padma (Ganges) delta. Describe the river features seen in the photograph. [4] (ii) Explain how a delta, such as the Padma (Ganges), is formed. [4]
6 1 (a) The rivers of Bangladesh change course often. Explain how rivers change course and form ox-bow lakes. You may use a diagram(s) to explain your answer. [4] (b) Study Fig. 1 which shows the number of passengers and the amount of cargo transported by rivers between 1995 and (i) Describe the changes in passenger numbers between 1995 and 2005.[1] (ii) Between which years did the amount of cargo carried stay the same?[1] (iii) When was the biggest increase in the number of passengers transported by river? [1] (c) Explain why rivers are an important form of transport in Bangladesh. [4] (d) Study the statement below. River floods can be both a benefit and a disaster for the farmers of Bangladesh. (i) Give one piece of evidence which supports floods as a benefit for the farmers.[1] (ii) Give one piece of evidence which supports floods as a disaster for the farmers.[1] (iii) Do you think floods are more of a benefit than a disaster for the farmers? Give reasons for your answer.[3] 6
