Downloaded from hlayiso.com English First Additional Language/P2 2 DBE/2019 SC/NSC – Marking Guidelines INSTRUCTIONS TO MARKERS 1. Candidates are required to answer ALL the questions. 2. These marking guidelines serve as a guide to markers. Some responses may require a marker's discretion, while others may be expanded at the national marking guideline discussion. 3. Candidates' responses should be assessed as objectively as possible. MARKING THE COMPREHENSION  Because the focus is on understanding, incorrect spelling and language errors in responses should not be penalised unless such errors change the meaning/understanding. (Errors must still be indicated.)  If a candidate uses words from a language other than the one being examined, disregard those words, and if the answer still makes sense, do not penalise. However, if a word from another language is used in a text and required in an answer, this will be acceptable.  For open-ended questions, no marks should be awarded for YES/NO or I AGREE/I DISAGREE. The reason/substantiation/motivation is what should be considered.  When one-word answers are required and the candidate gives a whole sentence, mark correct provided that the correct word is underlined/ highlighted.  When two/three facts/points are required and a range is given, mark only the first two/three.  Accept dialectal variations.  For multiple-choice questions, accept BOTH the letter corresponding with the correct answer AND/OR the answer written out in full.

Downloaded from hlayiso.com English First Additional Language/P2 4 DBE/2019 SC/NSC – Marking Guidelines 1.10 Open-ended. Accept a suitable response, e.g. Agree. The reality of the world we live in is that money is required for survival and if one cannot survive, one cannot be happy. Therefore, the first step towards happiness is attaining financial security. This will enable one to ultimately pursue a path of happiness. OR Disagree. The best things in life are free. One does not need money in order to be happy. A simplistic life that does not involve the accumulation of wealth but rather, the pursuit of spirituality is more likely to make one truly happy. NOTE: Do not award a mark for Agree/Disagree. Accept other suitable responses. A candidate can score 1 mark for an answer that is not well-substantiated. Accept a combination answer. (2) 1.11 The title, 'THE PRICE OF HAPPINESS' is suitable because it encapsulates the two aspects that are explored in the passage: money and happiness. Price is associated with money and the implication is that money can buy happiness, an assertion that this passage disputes. Price can also be associated with 'suffering'. The price you pay when you are reckless in spending and acquiring debt. OR The title is not suitable because the passage explores the idea that money cannot buy happiness.
