  • Literature in English November 2018 Principal Examiner Report for Teachers
    Cambridge International Advanced Subsidiary and Advanced Level 9695 Literature in English November 2018 Principal Examiner Report for Teachers LITERATURE IN ENGLISH Paper 9695/32 Poetry and Prose Key messages • Responses which rely on knowledge of the content of texts only are not successful. • Successful responses focus on the writing of the texts and how the content is presented to the reader. • Successful responses use specific references and quotations to support points in essays. This should be particularly remembered for the (a) questions, where candidates select their own material to answer the question. • Successful essays develop a line of argument in response to the question, developing points to a conclusion. • Successful responses to (b) passage questions examine the writing of the selected poem or extract in great detail. General comments There was much thoughtful work on Frost and Lahiri in particular this session, although the two Cambridge anthologies also remain popular options. Most candidates showed a reasonable grasp of the content and meaning of their chosen texts, while those who actively engaged with the ways in which they are written, looking closely at the effects of the writers’ choices of language, imagery, form and structure, were notably more successful. At the upper end of the mark range, examiners read some coherent and persuasive arguments, supported by detailed and deft analysis of the writers’ methods, evaluating the ways their works communicate to readers and audiences. Some less successful essays looked at textual detail abstracted from meaning; focusing on words, phrases or images taken out of their context has little value. Comments on specific questions 1 Robert Frost: Selected Poems (a) Some responses to this question demonstrated the necessity of choosing material carefully, as answers featuring poems with neither clear characters nor speech were not successful.
