2 ENGLISH FIRST ADDITIONAL LANGUAGE P1 (EC/NOVEMBER 2020) INSTRUCTIONS TO MARKERS 1. Candidates are required to answer ALL the questions. 2. This marking guideline serves as a guide to markers. Some responses may require a marker’s discretion. 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.  Coherent and relevant quotes from the passage are acceptable. The response must answer the question. Copyright reserved Please turn over

4 ENGLISH FIRST ADDITIONAL LANGUAGE P1 (EC/NOVEMBER 2020) 1.12 Open-ended. Accept a suitable response, e.g. Yes. It is exciting to know that you are giving your hair willingly to people who need it. Donating your hair is a compelling gift and you are making a difference in the life of a fellow human being. OR No. Nowadays males and females love beautiful hairstyles, so donating their hair will be very difficult. Most people prefer having their hair sprayed or donating money. NOTE: Accept other suitable responses. A candidate can score 1 mark for an answer that is not well-substantiated. Accept a combination answer. (2) 1.13 Open-ended. Accept a suitable response, e.g. Yes. The title is suitable because it is linked to the article which provides the reader with information about donating hair and making a difference in the lives of cancer patients. The article also teaches us how wonderful it is to donate some of our own hair so someone else can have hair and feel better about themselves. Donating hair means that it goes from the donor’s head to someone else’s. OR No. The title is not suitable because it only concentrates on making wigs for women who have cancer. Many men lose their hair when they undergo chemotherapy and feel unhappy about not having hair. Wigs should be available for such men too. NOTE: The above answer is merely an example. Accept a suitable response which shows that the candidate has understood the passage and how the title leads to it AND is able to provide substantiation. A candidate can score 1 mark for an answer that is not well-substantiated. (2) 1.14 2000/Two thousand  (1) 1.15 It is the name of the organisation.  (1) 1.16 The organisation’s main aim is to reduce hunger in South Africa.  (1) 1.17 They prevent food from being thrown into landfills.  (1) Copyright reserved Please turn over

(EC/NOVEMBER 2020) ENGLISH FIRST ADDITIONAL LANGUAGE P1 5 1.18 Open-ended. Accept a suitable response, e.g. Yes. This organisation gets numbers from the charity organisations they work with, so it is seen as accurate. The organisation does not work with individuals on the street for example. You must be part of an organisation to benefit. OR No. Organisations do not reach all people in need of food, so the numbers are much higher than indicated. Many people are not aware that they can get food from these organisations. NOTE: Accept any other relevant response that is well-substantiated. A candidate can score 1 mark for an answer that is not well- substantiated. (2) TOTAL SECTION A: 30 Copyright reserved Please turn over

It is very small so it can only be used to take care of cuts and grazes and not serious wounds. NOTE: Accept any other relevant response that is well-substantiated.
