The thing is, it asks me how the writer creates certain effects and I'm like "He doesn't..." Or the question can ask how the writer makes me feel a certain feeling and I'd be like "This passage does not, in any way, shape or form, make me feel [feeling]. Call me a cold-blooded, heartless soul if you may, but no, this passage makes me feel nothing."

you cold-blooded heartless soul.

you cold-blooded heartless soul.

lol, yeah, I asked my sister if I could write that. I mean seriously, if the passage doesn't make you feel any sort of emotion, you can't write about it. I don't care how good the writer is, he can't make everybody feel the way he wants them to.

If the question was asking how if the writer provoked a certain emotion you'd still be allowed to write something along the lines of... "the writer doesn't provoke that specific emotion. however, he manages many others to arise..." then you'd elaborate, anyone can do that and depending on how well they write and their interpretation still get an A grade.

Not too sure on that. I'll have to ask my teachers to confirm, but I'll most likely try my best to cough up a two-page essay anyway.

I think i did alright! I had to do of mice and men and an Inspector calls.

The swan poem thingy was nice too, I wrote how the contrast between the weather and how the writer describes the beauty of the swans and links it with love for the two people ect ect lool.

I had mine like, last week. I had to write about An inspector calls (open book), i wrote about Sheila, to kill a mocking bird (closed), i wrote about Jem and then I chose the poems 'The Darkling Thrush' and 'Upon my Son Samuel going for England'

I thought it was really good I did Lord of the Flies and the poems by Carol Ann Duffy, Simon Armitage and the Pre-1914 ones. I'll be really annoyed if I get a B or below though :/

That's what the people in my year did who do Foundation.
If you're the same, you'll only get max of a "C".

I accidently ******. I wrote about 2 plays for Section A. Annoying because I just misread what part Stone Cold was from. I was writting at an A* level too, so I'm a bit annoyed.
