Can anyone help me improve this answer for Q2?
Both writers are accompanied by another person on their adventure: Simon in Source A, and Marius in Source B. Use details from both sources to write a summary of what you understand about the differences between the two companions, Simon and Marius. (8 marks)
Both companions are experienced in climbing mountains however they both have different personalities and goals.
In source A, Simon was courageous enough to not leave his injured friend alone and assist him in descending the mountain; however, during the journey down, he was so egoistic and reckless that he only cared how fast he could've descended without him getting hurt, as seen in line 3, which also shows that he is panicked as he didn't believe they would get hurt since they are experts.
Furthermore, Simon only cares about himself and is eager to get down the mountain regardless of Joe’s health. He is also uncaring, as he is ignorant regarding Joe's "cries of alarm and pain" and is only concerned about getting out of the mountains as quickly as possible.
Whereas in source B, Marius is totally the contrary. As a travel guide, he must be extremely supportive and kind; He risks his life to protect others, as evidenced by the writer's use of the phrase "always went ahead", implying that he is taking responsibility and ensuring that it is safe for the tourist to explore, even though it involves putting himself in danger.
And also if anyone has some ideas for Q4, can you please share them with me? Thanks
