so for this question, can we use quotations from outside of the moment to explore the wider text? would i lose marks if i focused on one part of the play?

Many thanks for your kind message. For question a), you should only use quotations from the extract provided. You wouldn't lose marks if you referenced other sections, but you wouldn't be credited for it. For question b), you can essentially choose your own moment, which can potentially span several pages from the play. If you also use one particularly enlightening quotation from another section, I think this would be fine. Does this answer your question?

@@SchofieldonShakespeare thank you for your response- just to clarify I can use another moment which is in an entirely different section of the play but if it is relevant to the question and the point I am making I will be credited?

How many distinct paragraphs do you suggest we write for q2,3, and 4 and if we need an intro/conc? Also is each paragraph a point? tysm
@SchofieldonShakespeare
@SchofieldonShakespeare 3 ай бұрын
Q2 - 200 words. Q3 - 400 words. Q4 - 600 words. The number of paragraphs doesn't matter particularly, but aim to fill up the lines in the exa paper. I would have a short introduction for Q4, putting the two texts into context. Yes, essentially one paragraph should be one point, which is developed / expanded upon as necessary. Good luck this morning.
