QUESTION 1 – READING
According to the 2021 results of the Progress in International Reading
Literacy Study (PIRLS), South African learners lack proper reading skills.
It is said that 81% of Grade 4 pupils in South Africa do not read with
comprehension (Roux, 2023). The possibility is that learners will struggle
with reading by the time they get to Senior Phase and you, as a Senior
Phase teacher, will thus have to put in a lot of effort to ensure not only
fluent reading, but also reading with comprehension.
Read the following story titled The Necklace, by Guy de Maupassant,
and answer the questions that will follow about reading and viewing:
1.1 In light of the above statement by the Progress in International
Reading and Literacy Study (PIRLS) that South African learners lack
proper reading skills and that 81% of Grade 4 pupils in South Africa do
not read with comprehension (Roux, 2023), explain and demonstrate
with a few examples extracted from the story The Necklace, by Guy de
Maupassant, how you would teach intensive reading for comprehension
at a word level. (10)
1.2 Explain and demonstrate with a few examples extracted from the
story The Necklace, by Guy de Maupassant, how you would teach
intensive reading for comprehension at a sentence and paragraph level.

1.3 Explain and demonstrate with a few examples extracted from the
story The Necklace, by Guy de Maupassant, how you would teach
intensive reading for comprehension at whole text level. (10)

1.1 Intensive Reading for Comprehension at a Word Level
Teaching intensive reading at the word level involves helping students
understand the meanings, usage, and nuances of individual words within
the context of the text. Here’s how you can approach it using "The
Necklace":
Example Words:
• Adorned
• Chagrin
• Incessantly
Teaching Strategy:
1. Context Clues:
o Adorned: "She was simple since she could not be adorned."
Ask students to deduce the meaning based on the context
and surrounding sentences.
o Chagrin: "She cried all day long, from chagrin, from regret,
from despair, and from misery." Discuss the emotions
conveyed and how the word fits into this context.
o Incessantly: "She suffered incessantly, feeling herself born
for all delicacies and luxuries." Examine how this word
describes the character’s ongoing suffering.
