I opened a jar of beans as the sun set. I sliced a fresh tomato, and the sky went dark. As I tore off a piece of bread, I thought of how Paul (my brother) would appreciate this picnic menu. By the time I finished eating, drift logs were bumping and then hammering in the dugout. I couldn’t see them coming in the dark. I tied the packs and baskets to the thwarts and I cinched the strap on my glasses so that the frame pressed into my face. SEE NEXT PAGE FOR MARK SCHEME.

The appearance of the cloud and the atmosphere before the storm in paragraph 4

You should have noticed that there is an overall sense of danger to come or awaiting the inevitable.

• heavy bank of cloud hangs: described as a ‘bank’, which suggests a length of blackness. This ‘hangs’ as if it only needed someone to release it for it to do its damage. The word ‘heavy’ suggests the weight of the rain and wind suddenly to be released.

• no anger yet: personification suggests angry beast which will attack soon.• menace: creates the atmosphere of threat.• as if waiting: the inevitability/relentlessness of the storm is shown.• roll steadily: inevitability/relentlessness of the sustained action.• tense stillness: create the atmosphere of anticipation.• No breeze, no sound.: must refer to negative/ominous atmosphere; suggests

unnaturalness; may comment on the rhythm of the words/the repetition/lack of verb.

• a terrible bowl of blackness: the ‘bank’ has become something more evil/frightening, something which envelopes and traps, which is apparently bottomless into which one might fall, suggesting the end of life and matter.

• light…fail: as if the world is coming to an inescapable end.• the great canvas of nature: suggests the sky is a huge painting in which humans

are tiny/helpless, a feeling evoked by the storm.

The rain and the wind in paragraph 7You should have noticed that the writer is focusing on the extreme force of the

onslaught and the suggesting that the storm is an indication of elemental madness or the release of threatening monsters.

• (most) magnificent: ironic as storm typically regarded as destructive.• unleashed a swirling mass: let off its lead like a pack of wild animals/dogs, the

huge volume of rain circles like a whirlpool.• tempest: a violent seastorm, capable of extreme damage to property/people.• beats me (into a crouching apology of a man): weather is physically attacking and• reducing/humiliating its human opponent.• smashes itself : the personification suggests a demented creature throwing itself

against something it wishes to destroy with no regard for itself.• demented hail of shrapnel: the idea is extended by the shrapnel, which suggests

that the storm has become a battle, with no sane purpose.• drown me out: the overwhelming of his voice prefigures the threat of literal death

by• drowning.• Sheets: the rain coming down seems like a continuous/solid pouring of water.• frenzied waves: waves behaving as though in a fit of madness.• rearing their heads: having been ‘unleashed’ the monsters are lined up to attack.• monstrous: suggests the idea of strange/enormous creatures from the deep

dragged up by the storm.

MARK AND GIVE AN EBI/WWWBand 1:9–10

Wide ranging discussion of language. Some high quality comments that add meaning and associations to words in both parts of the question, and demonstrate the writer's reasons for using them. May give an overview of the paragraph’s combined effect. Tackles images with some precision and imagination. There is clear evidence that the candidate understands how language works.

Band 2:7–8

Reference is made to a number of words and phrases, and some explanations are given and effects identified in both parts of the question. Images are recognised as such and the response goes some way to explain them. There is some evidence that the candidate understands how language works.

Band 3:5–6

A satisfactory attempt is made to identify appropriate words and phrases. The response mostly gives meanings of words and any attempt to suggest and explain effects is basic or very general. One half of the question may be better answered than the other. The response may correctly identify linguistic devices but not explain why they are used.

Band 4:3–4

The response provides a mixture of appropriate choices and words that communicate less well. Explanations may be few, short or only partially effective. They may repeat the language of the quotation or do not refer to specific words.

Band 5:1–2

The choice of words is sparse or only partly relevant. While the question has been understood, comments are generalised, the response is very thin or only one part of the question has been attempted.
