Use them in conjunction with the detailed marking instructions, which identify the key features required in candidates’ responses.  \n(a) Always use positive marking. This means candidates accumulate marks for the demonstration of relevant skills, knowledge and understanding; marks are not deducted for errors or omissions.  \n(b) If a candidate response does not seem to be covered by either the principles or detailed marking instructions, and you are uncertain how to assess it, you must seek guidance from your team leader.  \n(c) Award a mark for each answer. Marks are not transferable between questions and the answers for each question must come from the item.  \n(d) Award marks according to the accuracy and relevance of the candidate’s answers. Award marks where the answer is accurate but expressed in their own words.  \nMarking instructions for each question-Listening Item 1  \n\n| Question |  |  | Expected response(s) | Max mark | Additional guidance |\n| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |\n|  |  |  |  |  | Do not accept: |\n| 1. | (a) |  | • (it is one of the most) devastating/harmful/damaging threats/challenges/dangers to the environment | 1 | it is bad for the environment\u003Cbr>climate\u003Cbr>one of the most important issues |\n|  | (b) |  | • the first plastic bag | 1 | plastic bottles |\n|  | (c) |  | • more than a million | 1 |  |\n|  | (d) |  | • 50 million plastic bottles are sold daily\u003Cbr>• less than half of them are recycled | 2 | only half |\n|  | (e) |  | • high cost of collection/separating waste | 1 | high cost of recycling/recollecting |\n|  | (f) |  | • burned in incinerators\u003Cbr>• end up in rubbish dumps/landfills\u003Cbr>• end up in water sources/rivers/the sea\u003Cbr>Any 2 from 3 | 2 | end up in the rubbish\u003Cbr>end up in water/fountains |\n|  | (g) |  | • bamboo cutlery/utensils\u003Cbr>• fabric/canvas shopping bags | 2 | wooden cutlery\u003Cbr>bags for life |\n\nItem 2  \n\n| Question |  |  | Expected response(s) | Max mark | Additional guidance |\n| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |\n|  |  |  |  |  | Do not accept: |\n| 2. | (a) |  | • reducing plastic consumption/use\u003Cbr>• changing our behaviour/habits\u003Cbr>• look for/find possible alternatives\u003Cbr>Any 2 from 3 | 2 | the consumption of plastic\u003Cbr>methods\u003Cbr>use possible alternative |\n|  | (b) |  | • stop buying single use plastic bottles\u003Cbr>• avoid plastic straws (in bars and restaurants)\u003Cbr>• always bring reusable bags (when shopping) | 3 |  |\n|  | (c) |  | • plastic packaging (in supermarkets) | 1 |  |\n|  | (d) |  | • manufacturers/producers\u003Cbr>• supermarket bosses/managers | 2 | fabricants/factories\u003Cbr>shop owners |\n|  | (e) |  | • milk in glass bottles | 1 | milk and glass bottles\u003Cbr>milk in reusable cartons |\n\n\n| Question |  |  | Expected response(s) | Max mark | Additional guidance |\n| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |\n|  |  |  |  |  | Do not accept: |\n|  | (f) |  | • to get rid of/eliminate unnecessary plastic/packaging | 1 |  |\n|  | (g) | (i) | • (already) prepared and ready to eat | 1 |  |\n|  |  | (ii) | • people are no longer capable of cutting a melon\u003Cbr>• people are no longer capable of peeling an orange | 2 |  |\n|  | (h) |  | • they are the simplest foods to sell without packaging | 1 |  |\n|  | (i) | (i) | • use (plastic) container","cbCairHkUjhP43sl","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCairHkUjhP43sl","pdf",185357,"English","# General marking principles for Advanced Higher Spanish Listening\n## Marking instructions for each question - Listening Item 1\n## Marking instructions for each question - Listening Item 2\n# General marking principles for Advanced Higher Spanish Discursive Writing\n## Holistic marking and pegged marks table approach","[{\"question\":\"What are the key general principles for marking Advanced Higher Spanish Listening?\",\"answer\":\"Apply positive marking and award marks for relevant skills, knowledge, and understanding.
