What happens if i answered an enitre GCSE english exam question wrong?
I did this exact question with the same two poems today as well 🙂 I thought it was a bit of an odd question too, as we never discussed anything about the past when we studied them. In the end I wrote about similar things to you, the implications of the past on the persona’s identity and how the past for each of them was linked to a different culture. I found myself going off topic so I tried to bring it back in at the conclusion to the question, about how in Hurricane acceptance is reached about the past and they are ready to start a new chapter in their life but in PFMYIP she is still struggling to accept her mixed heritage and feels torn between the two cultures, and therefore her own past and present. But it was a very difficult question, and I bet a lot of people struggled with it (therefore the grade boundaries will be lower!) Basically I wouldn’t worry about it, however they word the question all they are really looking at is how well you know and understand the poems, how well
