Read EXTRACT A and answer the questions that follow.



1.1 Identify the genre of EXTRACT A. (1 mark)

The genre of EXTRACT A is fiction, specifically a children's fantasy story.

1.2 Explain the meaning of “mangobblying cannybull”. (1 mark)

"Mangobblying cannybull" is a made-up word used by the Giant to describe himself.
It is meant to convey the idea that just because he is a giant, it doesn't mean he is a
mean, scary creature.

1.3 Discuss how the use of adjectives conveys the feelings of Sophie. (2
marks)

The use of adjectives in the extract conveys the feelings of Sophie by describing the
Giant's physical features in a way that emphasizes his size and potential threat.
Words like "truly enormous," "massive," "very white," and "huge" all contribute to the
sense of fear and intimidation that Sophie feels when facing the Giant. Additionally,
the adjectives "trembling," "stammered," and "hard" convey Sophie's fear and
nervousness in the situation.
