3) Identify one of your stronger questions. Why did you do better on this question? Use the mark scheme to help you with this.

I think one of my stronger questions was Q4. as all I had to do was connotate the photographic image of the water aid advert and I described the Childs facial expressions using adjectives and the background settings.

Q1. I got 0 as I misunderstood the question band instead of using denotation I used connotation.

5) Finally, write a new, detailed paragraph for Question 3 - the unseen text 12 mark question. Use the mark scheme to identify anticipated content you can add to your response and make sure you refer to the text and write in detail.
