It is ugly beyond redemption. Its shaggy, coarse coat is a bungled mix of colours, with the spots having none of the classy ostentation of a leopard’s, they look rather like the symptoms of a skin disease. The head is broad and too massive, with a high forehead, like that of a bear, but suffering from a receding hairline, and with ears that look ridiculously mouse-like, large and round, when they haven’t been torn off in battle. The mouth is forever open and panting. The nostrils are too big. The tail is scraggly and unwagging. All the parts put together look doglike, but like no dog anyone would want as a pet.  \nHow does the writer use language here to describe the hyena’s appearance? You 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 for question 2 only (as needed)    \n\n|  |\n| --- |\n|  |\n|  |\n|  |\n|  |\n|  |\n|  |\n|  |\n|  |\n|  |\n|  |\n|  |\n|  |\n|  |\n\nTurn over for the next question  \noutside the box  \n0  3  You now need to think about the whole of the source.  \nThis text is from the middle of a novel.  \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| 8 |\n\nExtra space for question 3 only (as needed)    \n\n|  |\n| --- |\n|  |\n|  |\n|  |\n|  |\n|  |\n|  |\n|  |\n|  |\n|  |\n|  |\n|  |\n|  |\n|  |\n\noutside the box  \n0  4  Focus this part of your answer on the second part of the source, from line 20 to the end.  \nA student said, “This part of the story, where the hyena behaves wildly, is funny rather than frightening.
