In its early years, Singapore was a port town surrounded by settlements of farmers and planters. With no trade restrictions and taxation on traders, by the end of the nineteenth century, it had been transformed into an urban city. Singapore had become, overall, a city of rickshaw pullers, coal heavers, boatmen, water carriers, fishermen and market gardeners

If you were Chinese, education amounted to free temple and clan association schools, all of which applied the traditional method of teaching Chinese classics by rote (Memorizing)—and thus left most pupils who completed their studies barely able to muster enough Chinese characters to read more than basic texts. If you were Malay, you might attend of the few government-aided free primary schools.

Source A tells me that Singapore's rapid rise after the British arrival was because of its free port status. This is evident in 'there was no trade restrictions and taxations on traders, allowing Singapore to grow into urban city, rising as one of the top ports by the end of the 19th century'. This shows that the free taxation helped more traders come into Singapore to trade and eventually grow.

I can learn that the education provided was (ATQ) weak and poor. (Point) This is evident in 'teaching Chinese classics by rote—and thus left most pupils who completed their studies barely able to muster enough Chinese characters to read more than basic texts.' (Evidence)This shows that the education provided was poor since most of them were not educated enough to work and survive. (Explanation + Link)
