Nellie came out with her bit of rope and strung it up nail to nail across the back alley. She waved to Doreen who was struggling up the hill with her shopping, offering her a cup of tea and a talk. Each Wednesday Doreen queued up at the butcher’s for the special offer mince. It always put her in a bad mood because she was a member of the Labour party and believed in equal shares and equal rights. She started to tell Nellie about the woman in front buying steak. Nellie shook her head which was small and tufted, and said it had been hard for her too since Bert died.  \n‘Bert,’ spat Doreen, ‘he were dead ten years before they laid him out.’ Then she offered Nellie a wine gum.  \n‘Well I don’t like to speak ill of the dead,’ said Nellie uneasily, ‘you never know.’  \nDoreen snorted and squatted painfully on the back step. Her skirt was too tight, but she always pretended it had shrunk.  \n‘What about speaking ill of the living? My Frank’s up to no good.’  \nNellie took a deep breath and another wine gum. She asked if it was the woman who served pie and peas in the pub; Doreen didn’t know, but now that she thought of it that would explain why he always smelled of gravy when he came home late.  \n‘You should never have married him,’ scolded Nellie.  \n‘I didn’t know what he was when I married him did I?’And she told Nellie about the war and how her dad had liked him, and how it seemed sensible. ‘I should have guessed though, what kind of man comes round to court you and ends up drinking with your dad instead? I used to sit all done up playing whist with his mother and one of her friends.’  \n‘Did he not take you anywhere then?’  \n‘Oh yes,’ said Doreen, ‘we used to go down the dog track every Saturday afternoon.’  \nThe two of them sat in silence for a while then Doreen went on, ‘Course the children helped. I ignored him for fifteen years.’  \n‘Still,’Nellie reassured her, ‘you’re not as bad as Hilda across the road, her one drinks every penny, and she daren’t go to the police.’  \n‘If mine touched me I’d have him put away,’ said Doreen grimly.  \n‘Would you?’  \nDoreen paused and scratched in the dirt with her shoe.  \n‘Let’s have a smoke,’ offered Nellie, ‘and you tell me about Jane.’  \nJane was Doreen’s daughter, just turned seventeen and very studious.  \n‘If she don’t get a boyfriend folks will talk. She spends all her time at that Susan’s doing her homework, or so she tells me.’  \nNellie thought that Jane might be seeing a boy on the quiet, pretending tobe at Susan’s. Doreen shook her head.‘She’s there all right, I check with Susan’smother. If they’re not careful folk will think they’re like them two at the paper shop.’  \n‘I like them two,’ said Nellie firmly, ‘and who’s to say they do anything?’‘Mrs Fergeson across saw them getting a new bed, a double bed.’  \n‘Well what does that prove? Me and Bert had one bed but we did nothing init.’  \nDoreen said that was all very well, but two women were different.  \nDifferent from what? I wondered from inside the dustbin.  \n‘Well your Jane can go to university and move away, she’s clever.’  \n‘Frank won’t put up with that, he wants grandchildren, and if I don’t get a move on there’ll be no dinner for him and he’ll be ba","cbCaiiGUGlE5Rxpj","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaiiGUGlE5Rxpj","pdf",147239,"English","# Sample question\n## Explore significance of gender stereotypes\n## Include detailed analysis of meaning-making","[{\"question\":\"What is the main task in the sample question?\",\"answer\":\"Explore the significance of gender stereotypes in the extract, including detailed analysis of how Winterson shapes meanings.\"},{\"question\":\"Who is the narrator in this scene and what does she do?\",\"answer\":\"A girl narrator hid to listen to the women’s conversation, trying to understand relationships and social attitudes.\"},{\"question\":\"What kinds of issues are discussed among the women?\",\"answer\":\"They discuss marriage, fidelity, reputation, and judgments about living and dead people, especially framed through gendered expectations.\"}]","Unseen extract 3 - Oranges Are Not The Only Fruit - Explore gender stereotypes and meanings | PDF",1792467830]
