    Key messages This paper was mainly assessed for reading, although there were 10 marks available for writing in Question 2. Below is advice for responding to Question 1 which can be applied in future sessions: • • • • • • In responding to questions allocated one mark, it is likely that only a straighforward answer is required. In responding to questions allocated two marks, it is often necessary to identify two discrete points. For the 6 mark language question where candidates are asked to explain what the writer means by three phrases identified from the passage, candidates should explain two elements for each sub-section (see Question 1(g) below). For the 6 mark language question where candidates are asked to select three of their own phrases and then to explain the effect of these phrases, candidates need to carefully choose independent phrases for which they can attach different explanations (see Question 1(h) below). In responding to the 7 mark summary question, candidates need to identify specific details, bearing in mind that each correct point will be awarded 1 mark (see Question 1(i) below). Candidates should answer in their own words if this is specified in the question.…
