Smashing your Eduqas English Language Paper 1 doesn't have to be stressful! This guide breaks down exactly what... Show more
Question 1 is your easiest 5 marks - just list five things explicitly mentioned in the text. Always write 6 answers though, just in case one's wrong!
Question 2 asks for impressions the writer creates. You need to give an impression plus a quote, then explain it using evidence, inference, and connectives. Aim for 4-5 pieces of evidence and keep your explanations snappy.
Question 3 focuses on character development and requires 7-8 pieces of evidence. Structure each point as how the character changed, evidence from the text, explanation, then how the writer shows this change through their techniques.
Quick Tip In Questions 3 and 4, always explain HOW the writer creates the effect, not just WHAT the effect is!
Question 4 explores the narrator's thoughts and feelings using the same structure as Question 3. Point, evidence, explanation, writer's method - and remember to write about 7-8 pieces of evidence.
Question 5 gives you a statement to evaluate. Write for and against the statement with evidence, but conclude with one clear viewpoint. This shows sophisticated analysis skills.
For Question 5, structure each paragraph like this "I agree with the statement through the quote '...' which shows that ___. This means ___. The writer created this thought/feeling by ___." Write 7-8 paragraphs like this, then add a brief conclusion starting with "Overall..."
Section B is your 40-mark narrative writing - this is where you can really shine! You'll get 4 options usually 2 titles and 2 "write about..." prompts.
Your story structure needs a clear beginning, middle, and end. Follow this pattern introduction, rising action, climax, falling action, conclusion. It's a tried-and-tested formula that works every time.
Power Move Replace basic words with ambitious vocabulary. Instead of "The rain poured down," try "The rain pounded on the delicate glass window, almost like a threat."
Language techniques are your secret weapon for easy marks. Sprinkle in similes, metaphors, onomatopoeia, foreshadowing, and symbolism. Even one well-placed metaphor can boost your grade significantly.
