Squeak is usually used to describe a soft voice that is barely heard by someone that is afraid. However rage is describing a loud and demanding voice by a person who is strong and angry. This emphasizes how anxious and irritated Mrs Whitney was that she could not express what she wanted clearly.]]> 2021-03-27 16:45:20 UTC https://padlet.com/xmspadlet/4ckwllaexrfdya26/wish/1360075040 Answer xmspadlet https://padlet.com/xmspadlet/4ckwllaexrfdya26/wish/1361098218 Synonyms: scary/terrifying/alarming/startling/fear-inducing

· ‘chorus of alarm’ (Q) suggests that they were many whistles going off at the same time (E) and were startling to hear (R)

· ‘shrilling down all the corridors at once’ (Q) suggests that the whistles were high-pitched and sudden (E), hence are terrifying (R)

· ‘(cacophony of) shrieking trills’ (Q) suggests the whistles making a chaotic mess of high-pitched screams (E) which sound very scary (R)

· ‘like a thick blanket smothering all other sounds’ (Q) shows that the whistles were so deafening that they drown out all other sounds (an essential explanation) (E) and are thus fear-inducing (R)

· ‘head-splitting (school whistles)’ (Q) illustrates that the whistles were so loud that they caused physical discomfort (E) which is alarming (R)

Any 3 details.

1m awarded for each QER (Q1E1R1+Q2E2R2+Q3E3R3 = 3m).

X makes the whistles seem fearful (the whistles are NOT feeling scared)

(ii) ‘drone’

X rise / fall – still about ‘wail’

]]> 2021-03-28 10:36:01 UTC https://padlet.com/xmspadlet/4ckwllaexrfdya26/wish/1361098525 Answer xmspadlet https://padlet.com/xmspadlet/4ckwllaexrfdya26/wish/1361099665 a) ‘furious’

X ‘coughing’ (not about the gunfire)

b) The writer wants to emphasise/bring out the intense battle/chaos/violence going on between the fighter planes and the enemy bombers.

]]> 2021-03-28 10:36:57 UTC https://padlet.com/xmspadlet/4ckwllaexrfdya26/wish/1361099665 Answer xmspadlet https://padlet.com/xmspadlet/4ckwllaexrfdya26/wish/1361100497 (i) It is unusual because a very angry person would likely shout loudly/have an outburst but here Mrs Whitney uttered a squeak which is shrill and soft. (relate to context)

X ‘anxious’ and ‘rage’ contradict (the two words DO NOT contradict)

(ii) It is effective because it emphasises/highlights her impatience/anger with the boys and the urgency in getting them to safety/ her worry for their safety.

]]> 2021-03-28 10:37:43 UTC https://padlet.com/xmspadlet/4ckwllaexrfdya26/wish/1361100497 Answer xmspadlet https://padlet.com/xmspadlet/4ckwllaexrfdya26/wish/1361101539 a) The writer is emphasising that the Hurricane fighter was focused on the enemy bomber and determined to take it down, like an eagle which is a determined predator focused on its prey.

OR The writer is emphasising that the Hurricane fighter was very fast when it went for the enemy bomber, like an eagle which swoops quickly to attack its prey.

The comparison must be made.

b) ‘as a fox that strikes from above’

X ‘The Hurricane fighter was as a fox that strikes from above.’ (not sentence)

Paraphrased Version:

The bomber’s movement became abrupt/sudden/jerky [1] and unsteady/uncontrolled/unstable [1] after it was hit.

b) It crashed into a silver barrage balloon (and burst into flames).

Inference question. The balloon is an essential detail.

X the bomber died (not the pilot)

but Derek, Peter and Jeffrey were in their way and thus they were critical of their sudden stop.
