QUESTION 1
1.1 The genre of EXTRACT A appears to be fantasy.
1.2 "Mangobblying cannybull" is a whimsical phrase coined by the Giant in the extract. It
seems to be his playful way of dismissing Sophie's fear that he might eat her. The
phrase doesn't have a literal meaning but is used by the Giant to express amusement
and to reassure Sophie that he has no intention of harming her.
1.3 The use of adjectives in the extract helps convey Sophie's feelings effectively. For
instance:
• The adjective "trembling" used to describe Sophie indicates her fear or
nervousness.
• The description of the Giant's "truly enormous ears" and "massive square teeth"
with adjectives like "enormous," "massive," and "square" creates a sense of
intimidation and awe, mirroring Sophie's feelings of being in the presence of a
giant.
• Sophie's stammering speech and her description of the Giant's teeth as "huge
slices of white bread" further emphasize her fear and vulnerability in the situation.
1.4 Nelson Mandela is referred to as a giant because of the immense impact he had on
South Africa and the world through his leadership, vision, and commitment to justice
and equality.
1.5 The repetition of "footprint" implies that Nelson Mandela's legacy and influence are
enduring and far-reaching. It suggests that his actions and principles have left a lasting
mark on society that continues to guide and inspire others.
1.6 The denotative meaning of "visionaries and fighters" refers to individuals who have
foresight and imagination (visionaries) and who actively engage in struggles or battles
(fighters). In the context of the text, these terms describe those who worked alongside
Nelson Mandela in the fight against apartheid, demonstrating both the ability to envision
a better future and the willingness to take action to achieve it.
