                                       NSC – Marking Guidelines

INSTRUCTIONS TO MARKERS
1.    Candidates answer TWO questions, ONE question each from ANY TWO sections. If a
      candidate answers more than two sections, mark only the first two sections answered.
2.    These marking guidelines are a guide. Many questions are open-ended; credit any
      relevant, well-substantiated response, even if it is not listed here.
3.    Because the focus is on understanding, spelling and language errors should not be
      penalised unless they change the meaning of the answer.
4.    For open-ended questions, no marks are awarded for YES/NO or AGREE/DISAGREE
      alone. The substantiation is what is credited.
5.    When TWO/THREE facts/points are required and more are given, mark only the first
      TWO/THREE.
6.    For multiple-choice and matching questions, accept the letter AND/OR the answer
      written out in full.
7.    For ‘Explain why the statement is FALSE’ questions, award the mark only for a correct
      reason/correction; do not award a mark for the word ‘False’ alone.
8.    For figure-of-speech questions, the figure of speech must be correctly identified; the
      explanation must refer to BOTH the comparison/device AND its relevance in the
      extract/poem.

SECTION A: NOVEL
QUESTION 1: TREASURE ISLAND
1.1      1.1.1       (a)    Spy-glass✓                                                           (4)
                     (b)    Bristol✓
                     (c)    cook✓
                     (d)    mutiny✓
                                                                                       (4 x 1)
         1.1.2       He is charming/friendly/likeable/a        natural   leader✓     (Accept:
                     cunning/manipulative).
                     He talks to every man and does each one a special favour, so the
                     whole crew respects and even obeys him; he is very kind to Jim and
                     always welcomes him in the galley.✓
                     NOTE: Accept ‘manipulative’ if the candidate explains that he wins
                     the men’s loyalty on purpose, for his own (pirate) plans.
                     NOTE: Award 1 mark for an answer that is not well-substantiated.            (2)
         1.1.3       ‘as clean as a new pin’✓
                     NOTE: Accept only these six words.                                          (1)
         1.1.4       C/polished until shiny.✓                                                    (1)
         1.1.5       (a) Friendly/warm/welcoming/kind/fatherly✓                            (1)
                     (b) He wants to win Jim’s trust and friendship (so that Jim will not
                     suspect him/will be on his side).✓                               (1)
         1.1.6       (a) The famous pirate captain/buccaneer who buried the treasure
                     on the island (whose map Jim found in Billy Bones’s sea-chest).✓(1)
                     (b) Silver seems to mean that the voyage will be a success for
                     everyone on board/for the Squire’s party✓; but he really means
                     success for the pirates, who plan to mutiny and seize Flint’s treasure
                     for themselves.✓
                     NOTE: Also accept: it is ironic that the parrot is named after the pirate
                     whose treasure the honest men are looking for (1 mark only).          (2)
         1.1.7       A person who spends time with wicked/bad people becomes wicked
                     too (the parrot learnt to swear from the pirates it sailed with).✓
                     It applies to Silver because he sailed with pirates (he was Flint’s
                     quartermaster) and has become a wicked, dishonest pirate himself.✓
                     NOTE: Accept: it is ironic, because Silver is himself the ‘pitch’ who
                     will lead the crew into mutiny.                                             (2)

         1.1.8       Open-ended. Accept a suitable answer, e.g.
                     Yes. Jim thinks Silver is ‘the best of men’, but Silver is the leader
                     of the pirates. From the apple barrel Jim hears him plan to kill the
                     honest men once the treasure is found, and Silver murders Tom on
                     the island. Silver changes sides whenever it suits him.
                                                      OR
                     No. Silver is so charming that everyone, even the Squire and the
                     doctor, is fooled at first. Jim stops trusting him once he hears the
                     truth, and later Silver does protect Jim from the other pirates when
                     Jim is captured.
                     NOTE: Do not award a mark for YES/NO or AGREE/DISAGREE
                     alone. Award 3 marks for a well-substantiated discussion that refers
                     to the text as a whole; award 1–2 marks for a partially substantiated
                     answer. Accept a mixed response.                                             (3)
1.2      1.2.1       Jim left the stockade without permission and found Ben Gunn’s small
                     boat (coracle).✓
                     At night he cut the Hispaniola’s anchor rope/cable and the ship drifted
                     away.✓
                     The two pirates on board (Hands and O’Brien) were drunk and
                     fought; O’Brien was killed and Hands was wounded.✓
                     Jim took command of the ship, and Hands agreed to help him sail it
                     to the North Inlet in return for food, drink and a bandage.✓
                     NOTE: Accept any TWO points.                                                 (2)
         1.2.2       What Jim was doing              (re-loading   his    pistols)    greatly
                     surprised/shocked Hands.✓                                                    (1)
         1.2.3       (a) Confident/threatening/triumphant/mocking✓                         (1)
                     (b) He feels safe high up on the cross-trees with two loaded pistols,
                     while the wounded Hands is below him/He has the upper hand.✓(1)
         1.2.4       No.
                     He only pretends to surrender to make Jim relax/drop his guard✓; a
                     moment later he throws his dagger at Jim and pins him to the mast.✓
                     NOTE: Do not award a mark for ‘No’ alone.                                    (2)
         1.2.5       (a) Simile✓                                                           (1)
                     (b) Jim is compared to a proud rooster strutting on a wall✓. It shows
                     that Jim is too proud of himself/over-confident and not careful, so
                     Hands is able to take him by surprise.✓                            (2)
         1.2.6       C/Hands’s dagger.✓                                                           (1)
         1.2.7       Both pistols go off by accident/without Jim aiming when he is struck
                     by the dagger.✓                                                              (1)

         1.2.8       Jim beaches/hides the ship in the North Inlet, so the pirates cannot
                     use it to escape with the treasure.✓
                     The pirates lose their only way off the island, so Silver later has to
                     bargain with the doctor/the honest party.✓
                     The honest party uses the Hispaniola to sail home to England with
                     the treasure.✓
                     NOTE: Accept any TWO points.                                                 (2)
         1.2.9       At the start of the novel Jim is a frightened boy at his parents’ inn who
                     has nightmares about the one-legged man. During the adventure he
                     has to make his own decisions and face real danger: he discovers
                     the mutiny plot, meets Ben Gunn, takes the Hispaniola on his own
                     and outwits Israel Hands. By the end he keeps his word to Silver and
                     is accepted as an equal by the men. The adventure turns him into a
                     responsible young man.
                     NOTE: Award 3 marks for a discussion that clearly links the theme
                     to events/characters in the text; award 1–2 marks for a partial
                     discussion. Accept other relevant, well-substantiated responses.             (3)
                                                                                                 [35]

         2.1.2       He is proud/arrogant/stubborn/sees himself as above others.✓
                     He refuses to give the Senate any reason except that it is his will; he
                     expects his word alone to be enough for them.✓
                     NOTE: Award 1 mark for an answer that is not well-substantiated.          (2)
         2.1.3       (a) Simile✓                                                         (1)
                     (b) Caesar’s statue is compared to a fountain with a hundred spouts
                     that pour out blood✓. The dream warns Calphurnia of danger and
                     foreshadows Caesar’s murder: the conspirators stab him many times
                     and then bathe their hands in his blood.✓                       (2)
         2.1.4       B/signs of something that will happen.✓                                   (1)
         2.1.5       The Senate plans to give Caesar a crown today.✓
                     If he does not come, the senators may change their minds.✓
                     People will mock Caesar/say that the Senate must wait until his wife
                     has better dreams.✓
                     People will whisper that Caesar is afraid.✓

         2.1.6       Decius says that his love for Caesar and his concern for Caesar’s
                     success make him speak so openly✓; the audience knows (but
                     Caesar does not) that Decius is one of the conspirators who is
                     leading Caesar to his death.✓                                             (2)
         2.1.7       Decius persuades Caesar to go to the Senate-house/Capitol, where
                     he is murdered.✓                                                          (1)

         2.1.8       Open-ended. Accept a suitable answer, e.g.
                     Yes. Caesar ignores every warning (the Soothsayer, Calphurnia’s
                     dream, the augurers, Artemidorus’s letter) because he does not want
                     to look afraid. Decius wins him over by flattering him and mentioning
                     the crown. At the Capitol he proudly says that he is as constant as

2.2      2.2.1       The ghost told Brutus that it was his evil spirit and that Brutus would
                     see it again at Philippi.✓
                     Now that the ghost has appeared again at Philippi, Brutus believes
                     that his death is near/that fate has decided he must die.✓                (2)
         2.2.2       His army has been defeated/his enemies have ‘beat us to the pit’.✓
                     He believes that it is more honourable to kill himself than to be
                     captured and led through Rome as a prisoner.✓
                     The ghost of Caesar has appeared to him, so he believes his hour

         2.2.5       Caesar’s spirit/ghost can now rest, because Brutus’s death pays for
                     Caesar’s murder.✓
                     Brutus kills himself more willingly than he killed Caesar: he was

                     Yes. Antony says that Brutus was the only conspirator who acted for
                     the good of Rome and not out of envy. He loved Rome more than
                     his friend, was honest, kept his word and was loved by his men, who
                     were true to him.
                                                       OR
                     No. Brutus murdered his friend Caesar, who loved and trusted him.
                     He was easily manipulated by Cassius’s forged letters, and his poor
                     decisions (allowing Antony to speak, marching to Philippi) caused
                     the deaths of many Romans.

‘THE OPEN WINDOW’
3.1      3.1.1       (a)   country✓                                                              (4)
                     (b)   sister✓
                     (c)   fifteen✓
                     (d)   snipe✓
                                                                                      (4 x 1)
         3.1.2       He believes Vera’s story that Mrs Sappleton’s husband and brothers
                     died in a bog three years ago.✓
                     Mrs Sappleton talks cheerfully about the men coming home, so
                     Framton thinks that she has lost her mind because of grief.✓                (2)
         3.1.3       The three men carry guns, one has a white coat/waterproof over his
                     shoulders, the brown spaniel is with them and one sings ‘Bertie, why
                     do you bound?’, exactly as Vera described✓; so Framton believes
                     that he is seeing the ghosts of men who died in the bog three years
                     ago.✓                                                                       (2)

         3.1.5       She is a good actress/deceitful/mischievous/a skilful liar.✓
                     She pretends to stare at the men with ‘dazed horror’, so that Framton
                     will believe that they are ghosts.✓

         3.1.8       She does not know about Vera’s story; she thinks that Framton is a
                     strange, rude man who only talks about his illnesses and left without
                     saying goodbye.✓                                                            (1)
         3.1.9       The open window is at the centre of Vera’s made-up story: she tells
                     Framton that it is kept open for the dead men to return.✓
                     When the men really do walk in through the open window, Framton
                     believes that he is seeing ghosts and runs away.✓
                     The window also suggests Vera’s open, active imagination/an
                     opening between the real world and her fantasy.✓

‘THE MONKEY’S PAW’
3.2      3.2.1       He wished for his son (Herbert) to be alive again.✓
                     His wife begged/forced him to make the wish after Herbert’s funeral,
                     because she remembered that the paw had two more wishes.✓                  (2)

         3.2.3       He is terrified/panic-stricken.✓
                     He drops the matches, stands still holding his breath and then runs
                     back to his room and shuts the door, because he fears that the
                     knocking is his dead, mutilated son.✓
                     NOTE: Award 1 mark for an answer that is not well-substantiated.           (2)
         3.2.4       At the beginning she does not believe in the paw/she makes fun of it
                     (she jokes about wishing for four pairs of hands).✓
                     In these lines she believes in it completely and is desperate/frantic
                     to open the door to her son.✓                                              (2)

                     (b) He fears that the thing outside is Herbert’s dead, mutilated body
                     (not the son his wife remembers), and he does not want it to come
                     in.✓                                                               (1)

                     (b) The knocking is compared to rapid gunfire (a fusillade of
                     shots)✓. It shows how loud, fast and violent the knocking becomes,
                     which increases the suspense/terror and shows why Mr White must
                     find the paw quickly.✓                                         (2)
         3.2.7       He wished that his son would be dead again/go back to his grave/that
                     the thing outside would go away.✓
                     The knocking stops suddenly and, when the door is opened, the road
                     is quiet and empty.✓                                                       (2)
         3.2.8       The Whites wish for things they want, but every wish brings disaster.
                     The wish for two hundred pounds is granted only when Herbert is
                     killed and the firm pays compensation. The wish to bring Herbert
                     back to life almost brings a terrible, mutilated body to their door, so
                     the last wish is used to undo it. The family is left far unhappier than
                     before. The story warns that trying to change fate/being greedy has
                     terrible consequences.

                     (b) The river is compared to glass because it is clear, smooth and
                     shining✓. It shows how beautiful and free nature is outside the cage,
                     which the caged bird cannot enjoy; this makes its imprisonment more

                     Yes. In the poem the bird sings while its wing is bruised and its chest

                     to Heaven for freedom. People who hear the song may think the bird
                     is happy, but it is really crying out in pain. In the same way, people
                     who suffer (e.g. people who are not free) may sing or smile to hide
                     their pain or to ask for help.
                                                         OR
                     No. Singing is usually a sign of happiness; the poem describes one
                     special case of a bird in a cage.
                     NOTE: Do not award a mark for YES/NO or AGREE/DISAGREE
                     alone. Award 3 marks for a well-substantiated discussion that refers
                     to the text as a whole; award 1–2 marks for a partially substantiated
                     answer. Accept a mixed response.                                            (3)

‘STOPPING BY WOODS ON A SNOWY EVENING’
4.2      4.2.1       To watch the woods fill up with snow.✓                                     (1)
         4.2.2       (a) Personification✓                                                 (1)
                     (b) The horse is given human thoughts: it ‘thinks’ that it is strange to
                     stop where there is no farmhouse✓. This shows that stopping in this
                     lonely place is unusual; the practical horse wants to go home, while
                     the speaker wants to stay and enjoy the beauty of the woods.✓ (2)
         4.2.3       The speaker is in a lonely place between the woods and a frozen
                     lake, with no farmhouse nearby.✓
                     It is a dark, snowy winter evening/the darkest evening of the year
                     (midwinter).✓
                     NOTE: Accept any TWO relevant points.                                      (2)
         4.2.4       B/soft and light, like feathers.✓                                          (1)
         4.2.5       He stops to watch the woods fill up with snow; it is the horse that
                     thinks the stop is strange/wants to go on.✓                                (1)
         4.2.6       He is attracted to/charmed by the woods; he finds them beautiful,
                     peaceful and inviting.✓
                     He describes them as ‘lovely’ and ‘deep’, and he does not want to
                     leave them (they are also ‘dark’ and mysterious).✓
                     NOTE: Award 1 mark for an answer that is not well-substantiated.           (2)
         4.2.7       (a) Determined/resigned/regretful✓                                   (1)
                     (b) He would like to stay, but he knows that he must leave the woods
                     because he has duties/promises to keep.✓                          (1)
         4.2.8       The repetition emphasises that he still has a long way to travel and
                     many duties to do before he can rest.✓
                     The second time, ‘sleep’ may also suggest death: he has much still
                     to do in his life before he dies.✓
                     NOTE: Accept: the repetition creates a slow, tired/dreamy rhythm at
                     the end of the poem.                                                       (2)

         4.2.9       Open-ended. Accept a suitable answer, e.g.
                     Yes. The speaker is tempted to stay in the quiet, ‘lovely, dark and
                     deep’ woods, but he remembers that he has ‘promises to keep’ and
                     ‘miles to go’. He leaves the peaceful woods to carry on with his
                     responsibilities, even though he is tired.
                                                      OR
                     No. The poem does not show him leaving; he only says that he has
                     promises to keep. The repeated last line suggests that he is very tired
                     and still longs to rest.
                     NOTE: Do not award a mark for YES/NO or AGREE/DISAGREE
                     alone. Award 3 marks for a well-substantiated discussion that refers
                     to the text as a whole; award 1–2 marks for a partially substantiated
                     answer. Accept a mixed response.                                           (3)
                                                                                               [35]
                                                                         GRAND TOTAL:            70
