Article: When clapping the beat, clap hard on a strong beat (the start of a bar), and more softly on a weak beat. If you clapped "strong-weak-weak", it is in triple time. "Strong-weak" implies dual time, and "strong-weak-weak-weak" quadruple. If there were usually three shorter notes in each beat (or a multiple of three), it is compound time. If there were usually two or a multiple of two, it is simple time. These include 2/4, 3/4, 4/4, 5/4 and 3/8. The lower number signifies what each beat is (2 means a minim; 4 a crotchet; 8 a quaver and so on). The higher number is how many are in a bar (eg: 3/8 is three quavers). These include 6/8, 9/8, 12/8 and 12/16. Complex time signatures are mixtures of simple and compound time, such as 5/8 and 7/8. There are usually different ways to split up the beat. Complex time can also be fitted into more usual time signatures such as 4/4, for example by the main beats being two dotted crotchets, then a crotchet. For example, in simple 3/8 there are three beats of three quavers in a bar. In compound 3/8 there is one beat in a bar, which can be subdivided into three quavers. You might be asked a series of questions after the administrator plays a piece. Study the syllabus for your examination for details. Some questions might be, "was the piece played piano fortissimo at the beginning?", "was the middle section staccato or legato?", "was there a ritardando at the end?", "was there a decrescendo at the end?". Make sure you learn all the terminology for this.
Question: What is a summary of what this article is about?
In lower grade exams, you will probably be asked to clap to the beat, name the time signature, and distinguish differences between the same piece when played twice. If you are asked for the metre of the piece, think where you clapped for the strong beat. To work out whether the metre is simple or compound, think about each beat. Understand simple time signatures. Understand compound time signatures. Note that some time signatures can be used for either simple or compound time. Learn the terminology accurately.
Article: Put a small brush nozzle on the end of your vacuum cleaner. Carefully vacuum the plants, working from the top to the bottom of the plant. You can use the same can of forced air that you use to clean your keyboard and computer. Use the can of forced air to spray off the dust that has accumulated on your silk plants. An alternative to compressed air for cleaning electronics is an old can of hair spray. You could also use an air compressor if you have one available, but be careful not to hold the nozzle too close to the plant since the force of the compressed air could damage the plant. Put half a cup of cornmeal in the bottom of a grocery bag. Remove the silk flowers or petals that you want to clean and put them in the bag. Roll up the top of the bag and give it a shake for one or two-minutes. The cornmeal should rub off the dust. If you don't have cornmeal, you can also use salt. Remove the petals and flowers from your silk plant. Put them in your dryer with a dryer sheet. Turn your dryer to a low heat setting. Run the dryer for one or two-minutes to remove any dust. If you are looking for a quick dusting solution, you can use your hair dyer on a cool air, high fan setting. Use the hair dryer to blow away the dust. You may want to do this cleaning outside, so you don't get too much dust blown around your apartment.
