Comment
The answer is fluent and well-argued, showing an ability to interpret ideas. Quotations are mostly embedded and are well chosen to support the interpretations being made. Reference to context is relevant, though could be further developed.
For Grades 8‒9:
- Examine layers of meaning in quotations.
- Use an even greater range of words and phrases when exploring ideas, e.g. ‘This could suggest …’, ‘This implies …’.
- Develop ideas about context more fully.
