A paper of two halves Section A: – 1 drama question – There will be a huge choice of questions – find the one to do with An Inspector Calls! – 30 marks – 50 minutes Section B: – 1 prose question – There will be a huge choice of questions – find the one to do with Of Mice and Men – 30 marks – 50 minutes This exam is worth 60% of your overall mark for literature

The most important advice: Write a lot about a little. You should have a few key quotations and events in mind. Don’t give loads of examples, instead really analyse a few examples in as much detail as you can. If it’s a quotation, pick apart the words used. If it’s a quotation or a reference to the text, comment on the effect on the audience/reader, think about what it tells us about the character/ theme.

An Inspector Calls – J B Priestley Either (a) ‘You ought to like this port, Gerald.’ How does Priestley present the character of Gerald as an upper class young man in this play? OR (b) Do you consider An Inspector Calls to be an effective title for this play? (30 marks)

Of Mice and Men – John Steinbeck Either (a) Explore the role and character of Candy in this novel. OR (b) How does Steinbeck use different settings in this novel to convey his themes? (30 marks)
