Revising Section B: Writing
For this question, you will be given an image and (more than likely) you will need to write a description using the image as a starting point. This is a description.
A DESCRIPTION!
Not a story.
You will be marked on your ability to describe.
To describe:
add adjectives onto nouns
add adverbs to your verbs
make your verbs more interesting.
example:
The dog bit the man
becomes
The ferocious beast tore at the helpless man's flesh viciously.
You MUST also use similes (he was like a building), metaphors (he was a building), personification (the building stared at the man.)
Then you will be marked on your accuracy: your spelling, punctuation and grammar.
So,
vary your sentence types for effect. Use a one-line paragraph amongst your longer paragraphs to create an impact.
Make sure you use a range of punctuation (at least 4 different types).
Ensure your vocabulary is imaginative and your spelling is accurate.
Good luck!
