For each phrase I have indicated words/phrases that you may use to respond to the question.


INCLUDED IN THE QUESTION POSSIBLE RESPONSE
use of statistics or numbers / direct speech adds credibility, validity, authenticity
provokes an emotional response
to convince, manipulate, persuade
reference to the grammar or style e.g. use involves/engages the reader personally (colloquial
of formal / conversational language, slang, language, informal)
personal pronouns (‘I’, ‘you’, ‘we’) add credibility, validity, authenticity (formal writing)
choice of diction provokes an emotional response (emotive words)
use of punctuation adds authenticity
use of hyperbole to reach a possible solution
rhetorical questions provokes an emotional response
use of repetition encourages thinking / an opinion
emphasises / highlights the writer’s point about…
to convince, manipulate, persuade
short paragraphs or single sentence emphasises / highlights the writer’s point / message
evokes a response
adds impact
use of figurative language e.g. imagery, emphasises / highlights (the writer’s message)
simile / metaphor/ alliteration engages the reader




QUESTION 1.1
Account for the writer’s feelings in paragraph 1.

Note that this question is a comprehension-type question and an accessible one as you merely have
to “rephrase” the existing words in the paragraph. i.e. “that inspires more than the usual revulsion
towards crude displays of opulence”

Answer:
The writer is disgusted by/pities (writer’s feelings) the flashy/obscene displays of wealth by spoilt
teenagers (account for his feelings).
revulsion = disgusted by
crude displays of opulence = flashy displays of wealth

QUESTION 1.2

Explain what the writer means by, ‘The young men and women seem lost in the designer
clothes, dwarfed and dehumanised by their possessions, as if ownership has gone into
reverse.”
