There is a whole new set of questions in the second practice paper.
Q. 7 (4 marks): write half a page.
Q. 8 is on representation of gender. In class, we do question 8 then look at hard copies of The Observer to identify its messages and values.

  1. Responses must analysis two examples of the representation of gender. This may be two examples of femininity or masculinity or examples of femininity and masculinity.
    Analysis might include:
     the anti-stereotypical representation of the female runner as active and powerful, emphasised by the way her feet break out of the box
     the representation of the male athlete in an anti-stereotypical kneeling pose, which suggests vulnerability, but the photo is cropped to emphasise where he is – a competitive arena
     the anti-stereotypical representation of a female comedian
     the stereotypical representation of the serious world of politics through the intervention of a male politician
     there is a stereotypical gender division, with women featuring in the leisure-based skybox – running, cooking, and comedy – and the male focus of the lead article – David Miliband on Brexit
     the only image with direct address is of a woman – Nadiya Hussain – who smiles at the camera
     any other relevant representation analysis.
