May/June 2019

INSTRUCTION TO MARKERS 1) Candidates are required to answer ALL the questions. 2) This memorandum serves as a guide to markers. Some responses may require a

marker's discretion. 3) Candidates' responses should be assessed as objectively as possible.

MARKING THE COMPREHENSION

Because the focus is on understanding, incorrect spelling and language errors in responses should not be penalized unless such errors change the meaning/understanding. (Errors must still be indicated.)

If a candidate uses words from a language other than the one being examined, disregard those words, and if the answers still make sense, do not penalize. However, if a word from another language is used in a text and required in an answer, this will be acceptable.

For open-ended questions, no marks should be awarded for YES/NO or I AGREE/I DISAGREE. The reason/substantiation/motivation is what should be considered.

When one-word answers are required and the candidate gives a whole sentence, mark correct provided that the correct word is underlined/highlighted.

When two/three facts/points are required and a range is given, mark only the first two/three.

Accept dialectical variations.

For multiple-choice questions, accept BOTH the letter corresponding with the correct answer AND/OR the answer written out in full.
