What are ‘impressions’?
When you are answering questions about impressions, you need to read through a text while thinking about the impression you are given about a person, place, organisation of event at any given time.

• If a question asks you to look for impressions in a text, what might you focus on?

Handy Hint
• If you are looking at language and words, it is important to quote a short word or phrase and then make clear what impression the word or phrase creates. Never use long quotations in your answer.
• If you are given a text with a picture, consider what impressions the picture creates as well as the text (not instead of).
