In-between percentages can be given. Multiple-choice questions are worth either 100% or 0%. Deduct first for content of answers. (Wrong answer = 0 points, regardless of language.) Pupils who have dispensation for spelling mistakes should automatically be given 5% for spelling and punctuation. The Answer Key gives possible answers to the questions. Alternate answers to open questions may be accepted if appropriate. Use your judgment, bearing in mind that there are different ways to interpret literary texts. If students answer more than one set of questions in Parts I and II mark the set with the most answers or if they have answered all or an equal number of questions in both sets, mark the first set. Accept HOTS answers to LOTS questions. If students give more answers than asked for, only mark the first answer(s). Do not deduct for additional answers. For HOTS questions requiring choice and explanation of HOTS: 1) If question (a) is correct and (b) incorrect or refers to a different skill, give credit for (a) but give (b) 0 points. 2) If question (a) is incorrect and (b) correct, give no credit for either (a) or (b). 3) Students are allowed to use any HOTS that appears in the Literature Handbook. For justification of the choice of HOTS (b questions): No reference to text = 0 points (e.g., I chose the HOTS of inferring because I had to read between the lines in order to write my answer.) Bridging questions: If answers are only a summary/analysis of the text and do not relate to the new information given, deduct 60% of content. (See Rubric 4: "Answer does not show connection between the new information and the text.")

9 a. (Use Rubric 2) Possible thinking skills: Explaining cause and effect / Inferring Any other thinking skills are acceptable as long as they are supported by the text and can be explained in question 11b. George has no one to talk to in his family. This makes it hard for him to solve his problems and to change his life.

(Use Rubric 3) Possible explanations for thinking skills: Explaining cause and effect: I used the HOTS of cause and effect to show how George's relationship with his family caused him to stay in his old life.

A student can relate just to one part of the story, for example, only to the part when she understands that he is not reading. Sophie thinks George could succeed in life and she believes it when she hears that he is reading. At that point her opinion is that he is trying to get an education and should get respect. // When Sophie learns that George lied, she thinks that he is a lazy bum who doesn't do anything and expects other people to take care of him. // When Sophie hears that George is reading, she is proud of him and respects him. // She expects more from him. We can see it when she asks him about his reading. If: "That he is lazy" deduct 45%. If no opinion: "she cares about him and wants the best for him" 0 pts. 10 points 5 points 8 points 7 points

10 PART II (33 points) Students are required to answer questions for (C) Thank You, Ma'm. C. THANK YOU, MA'M / Langston Hughes 13. (Use Rubric 1) iii) Roger fell on the ground and Mrs. Jones kicked him. 14. (Use Rubric 1) Mrs. Jones drags him there. / takes him there by force. // Mrs. Jones kicked him and took him to her home.

If: "she takes him there to wash his face" deduct 20%. 15.

If: "that she will not trust him" 0 pts. 16. a. (Use Rubric 2) Possible thinking skills: Distinguishing different perspectives / Explaining cause and effect / Inferring Any other thinking skills are acceptable as long as they are supported by the text and can be explained in question 16b. 10 points It is important for Roger to remember his meeting with Mrs. Jones so that he doesn't do the same thing again. / because this meeting could change Robert's life. / because she wanted to give him a lesson for his life. // Mrs. Jones shows Roger that he has done something wrong and treats him nicely. She hopes that Roger will never try to steal anything again. b. (Use Rubric 2) Distinguishing different perspectives: I chose different perspectives because Roger sees things differently after his meeting with Mrs. Jones. At the beginning he thinks that stealing is the way to get what he wants but at the end he realizes that stealing is wrong. Explaining cause and effect: I chose this skill because Mrs. Jones is trying to change Roger's behavior and cause him to understand the difference between right and wrong. // When someone shows love and care it can give hope and change someone's life. Inferring: Reading between the lines we can see that she teaches him right from wrong. 5 points

She does not want him to be a criminal. / She knows how he feels. // She feels sorry for him (because he said there was no one in his house.) // She wants Roger not to be scared. / She gives him the feeling of home and family. If: "she refers to him like to her son" deduct 60%. If: "she also does not have a family" 0 pts. If: "She thinks that if Roger feels at home he will tell her about his life" 0 pts.

12 PART III (24 points) (Use Rubric 4) Students are required to answer questions for either question (18) The Treasure Of Lemon Brown OR (19) Count That Day Lost. Suggested length: words. Note: When giving examples from the texts students may either quote directly or paraphrase. 18. THE TREASURE OF LEMON BROWN / Walter Dean Myers The answer has to contain the elements of universal values / understanding what the real treasure in life is / son-father relationships. Possible answer: The main character of the story is Greg who has a problem with his grades in Math. His father won't let him play basketball until he improves his grades. Greg understands what his father is trying to do after he meets Lemon Brown. The lesson that Greg learns from Lemon Brown is that his father loves him and wants him to succeed. The story talks about universal values like what the treasure in life is or father-son relationships. These lessons are interesting for everyone, especially teenagers. 19. COUNT THAT DAY LOST / George Eliot The answer has to contain the elements making other people's lives better / make others feel better by doing something good. Possible answer: In a society where there are many problems and people have difficulties every person can make a difference. The poem shows how people can improve society. It says that a person should be nice and helpful to other people in any way possible. A person can help others and make them feel better by doing something or by saying something helpful or even just by looking at others in a kind way. But a person who doesn't care and doesn't do anything to make life better for others each day is wasting his / her life, and can count that day lost.
