He had seen it happen; had seen whole classes swept away in the fever. In those days, there were heroes; there were dragons and dinosaurs; there were space adventurers and soldiers of fortune and giant apes. In those days, thought Mr Fisher, we dreamed in colour, though films were in black and white, and good always triumphed in the end.  \nHow does the writer use language here to convey Mr Fisher’s views on books and stories of the past?  \nYou could include the writer’s choice of:  \n• words and phrases  \n• language features and techniques  \n• sentence forms.  \n[8 marks]  \n\n|  |\n| --- |\n|  |\n|  |\n|  |\n|  |\n|  |\n|  |\n|  |\n|  |\n|  |\n|  |\n|  |\n|  |\n|  |\n\noutside the box  \n|  |\n| --- |\n| 8 |\n\nExtra space    \n\n|  |\n| --- |\n|  |\n|  |\n|  |\n|  |\n|  |\n|  |\n|  |\n|  |\n|  |\n|  |\n|  |\n|  |\n|  |\n\nTurn over for the next question  \n 0  3  You now need to think about the whole of the source.  \nThis text is from the beginning of a short story.  \nHow has the writer structured the text to interest you as a reader?  \nYou could write about:  \n• what the writer focuses your attention on at the beginning of the source  \n• how and why the writer changes this focus as the source develops  \n• any other structural features that interest you.  \n[8 marks]  \n\n|  |\n| --- |\n|  |\n|  |\n|  |\n|  |\n|  |\n|  |\n|  |\n|  |\n|  |\n|  |\n|  |\n|  |\n|  |\n|  |\n|  |\n|  |\n|  |\n|  |\n\noutside the box  \n\n|  |  |\n| --- | --- |\n|  |  |\n|  | 8 |\n|  |  |\n\nExtra space    \n\n|  |\n| --- |\n|  |\n|  |\n|  |\n|  |\n|  |\n|  |\n|  |\n|  |\n|  |\n|  |\n|  |\n|  |\n\n 0  4  Focus this part of your answer on the second part of the source, from line 25 to the end.  \nA student s","cbCaisaMwQr7Nnhg","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaisaMwQr7Nnhg","pdf",298643,"English","# Section A: Reading\n## Question 1\n## Question 2\n## Question 3\n## Question 4","[{\"question\":\"What materials are required for GCSE English Language Paper 1?\",\"answer\":\"Candidates must use Source A provided as a separate insert and write answers in the spaces provided on the question paper.\"},{\"question\":\"Are dictionaries allowed during this exam?\",\"answer\":\"No, candidates must not use a dictionary.\"},{\"question\":\"How is assessment split across the paper?\",\"answer\":\"The paper has 80 marks in total, with 40 marks for Section A reading and 40 marks for Section B writing.\"}]","GCSE English Language - Paper 1 Explorations in creative reading and writing - Question paper (Tuesday 5 June 2018) | PDF"]
