This paper consists of 7 pages.
Instructions:
The examination paper consists of two questions. You must answer BOTH questions.
Carefully follow the instructions given for each question.
You may use your primary texts – the poem and novel – to assist you, but you must cite these
correctly.
We recommend that you spend 2-3 hours answering this question paper.
Note: You have 4 hours to download this paper, complete the questions, and upload your
answers on the myModules platform. Check your timetable for the official cut-off time.
No late submissions will be accepted. No corrupt files will be marked.
No submissions will be accepted via e-mail.
IMPORTANT:
You should NOT use any other sources in answering these questions.
If you do, you must cite these sources correctly. If you use additional sources and do not cite
them both in-text and in a bibliography, you will be guilty of plagiarism, which constitutes
cheating during an examination.
If you copy from another source, you will fail the module, face disciplinary action and
risk suspension from the university. We will be using software to compare your answers to
all the information available on the web, so it will not be possible to hide plagiarism.
Remember to TICK the Honesty Pledge upon submission.
If you are unsure how to submit your answers, follow the Take Home Assessment Upload
guide.
