yh the one on with the sun dripped warmth like hot wax
'plagiarism is restricted to those examination components
where students undertake examination work in unsupervised conditions, such as
coursework, pre-release work, or the compilation of research notes which can be
used in the examination.'

This is what I have found in the JCQ PDF on plagiarism for all exam boards: AQA, Edexcel, OCR etc. So I don't think it is a problem.

i think they were referring to in q2 how we were given the paragraph and the semantic field of aggression or violence was portrayed when kino was smashing the scorpion or something along those lines
q1 and q2 were worded so badly
5 marks - some good inference here and relevant structural features chosen. To improve, I would always consider how one thing develops to another e.g. Your assumptions that there's an internal hierarchy within the family are compounded when Hartop is described to be 'sprawling' and his wife and daughter are 'squeezed'. This shows us that he is inconsiderate of their comfort. We immediately make assumptions about him as a character and also believe he may be a bully because they are said to be 'frightened'. Therefore, we are waiting to see if our assumptions are correct so when he treats his daughter poorly later on, we could have foreseen it. Higher marks are always awarded to those who consider the structure of the whole piece and how it develops.

Don’t worry I’ve heard that even if you do this, marks will be capped but examiner will still mark you according to the level of your analysis and AO’s. Don’t worry please
