Question semi cantilever wings

i am looking for some help with a question i have been given as part of my college course.

the question is "in a light aircraft, what is a semi-cantilever wing, how is attached to the fuselage?"

i have been through all of my notes and several books as well and cant seem to find any more than passing references to them.
the best i can figure this is the type of wing that is fitted to smaller cessnas eg 150,170 etc? or am i way off with this and what would bethe technical answer to the question or any suggestions where i could find the answer

any help would be greatly appreciated
