Reading: Understand And Respond To Written
Gbogbo ọrọ náà
The Reading paper is the one component where your English is not being judged at all. Both mark schemes say it in the same sentence: the mark is awarded if you have satisfactorily communicated your understanding, even though the response may contain some errors in the quality of language used. Spelling, grammar and elegance earn nothing here and cost nothing. Sixty marks are available for understanding four passages, and nothing else.
That should make it the easiest paper on the qualification, and for most candidates it is the one where the largest number of marks are left on the table. This lesson explains why. It sets out the four strands of AO1 and which of the four texts assesses which, counts the question families across both papers on file so you know what is coming, and then works the three question types that decide the grade: the multi-select collation, the inference item, and the whole-text question that closes every passage.
Ebumnobi
- In order to meet the requirements of AO1, students are expected to:
- read, understand and respond to a range of written texts varying in type, style, purpose and degree of complexity
- develop skills in scanning and skimming texts to identify specific and general points and identify overall message
- understand the significance of tense and recognise the relationship between past, present and future
- examine writers’ purpose through close consideration of content and use of language
- explore what is implied but not actually stated and make appropriate inference and deduction.
