Please write the passages on a piece of foolscap and staple it at the back of the the spelling worksheet.

Dictation (T2W1)
In richer and more advanced countries such as Singapore, it is more common for people to be overweight than underweight. Being obese is usually a case of having too much body fat. Being overweight or obese is a concern regardless of age or ethnicity. Obesity has been linked to an increased risk  of illness and death from heart disease, stroke, kidney and gallbladder disorders and some forms of cancer. 

Dictation (T2W2)
The British had anticipated that the Japanese would invade from the south of Singapore. As a result, they fortified spots along the southern coast, such as Sentosa and Labrador Park, with cannons. To their surprise, the Japanese entered Singapore from the north using bicycles via the Causeway. This allowed the Japanese to attack and enter Singapore swiftly and quietly, and to move faster their retreating opponents.
