Answer all the questions below:
1. 'Poets are the hierophants of an unapprehended inspiration; the mirrors of the
gigantic shadows which futurity casts upon the present; the words which express what
they understand not; the trumpets which sing to battle, and feel not what they inspire;

legislators of the world.' Percy Bysshe Shelley (A Defence of Poetry)
Discuss the above statement in relation to two poets and poems you have studied.

3. Write a detailed account of the plot of Richard Wright’s Native Son. 20 marks
4. Write on five characters in Richard Wright’s Native Son. 20 marks
5. Read carefully the following extract from an autobiography. Lynn, the narrator, is just
about to leave school and hopes to go to Oxford University. Simon, Lynn’s boyfriend,
who is several years older than her, has just proposed marriage.
How does the writing vividly convey to you Lynn’s conflicting feelings at this crucial
moment in her life?
To help you answer you might consider:
• her feelings about getting married and about going to university
• the reactions of her parents, friends and headmistress
• how the writing helps you to share the impact of her experiences. 20 marks
On the evening I finished sitting my A-levels, Simon took me out to dinner and
proposed. I had wanted him to propose, as proof of my power, but I had absolutely no
intention of accepting because of course I was going to Oxford. Eighteen years of my life had
been dedicated to this end, so it was quite impertinent of him to suggest my giving it up. I
relayed the news to my parents the next morning as a great joke – ‘Guess what? Simon
proposed! He wants me to marry him this summer!’ To my complete disbelief, my father said
‘Why not?’ Why not? Had he suddenly gone demented? ‘Because then I couldn’t go to
Oxford.’ My father said, ‘Well, is that the end of the world? Look,’ he went on, ‘You’ve been
going out with him for two years; he’s obviously serious, he’s a good man; don’t mess him
around.’ I turned to my mother incredulously but she shook her head. ‘You don’t need to go
to university if you’ve got a good husband.’
This was 1962, well before the advent of feminism. But even so, I felt a sense of utter
betrayal, as if I’d spent eighteen years in a convent and then the Mother Superior had said,
‘Of course, you know, God doesn’t exist.’ I couldn’t believe my parents could abandon the
idea of Oxford. But apparently they could and over the next few days they argued it every
mealtime – good husbands don’t grow on trees, you’re lucky to get this one (‘And you not
even in the family way!’), why go to university if you don’t need to?
Simon meanwhile was taking me to see houses, asking where I wanted to live when we were
married. I couldn’t resist telling my school friends, ‘I’m engaged!’ And they were all wildly
excited and thrilled for me and said, ‘You’ll never have to do Latin again!’ Even so, I was queasy – I’d always liked the sound of Oxford, I even liked writing
essays, I wasn’t so keen to give up the idea. But my parents, especially my father, put great
pressure on me. Why go to Oxford if I could marry Simon? And, they reminded me, I’d been
saying all along that I couldn’t face another term at school.
This was true. In those days, if you were aiming for Oxford or Cambridge, you had to
stay at school an extra term after A-levels to prepare for the entrance exams. I was dreading it
because Miss R. Garwood Scott, the headmistress, had flatly refused to make me a prefect
and, while all the other Oxbridge candidates could spend their time in the prefects’ room, I
would be left roaming the corridors or slouching round the playing field on my own, without
any gang to protect me. But Miss R. Garwood Scott was adamant that I would never be a
prefect even if I stayed at school a hundred years – I was a troublemaker, a bad influence,
guilty of dumb insolence and making pupils laugh at teachers. I put a brave face on it, but I
knew the next term was going to be the loneliest three months of my life. But then there was
the glittering prize of Oxford at the end of it – I never doubted I would get in – and I had
resolved it was a price I was willing to pay.
Events overtook me in the last few days of term. Miss R. Garwood Scott somehow
got wind of my engagement and summoned me to see her. Was it true I was engaged?
Yes, I said, but I would still like to take the Oxford exams. She was ruthless. I could either be
engaged or take the exams but not both. I stared at her. ‘So I won’t take the Oxford exams,’ I said. My little gang was waiting for me outside her study. ‘I told her I was leaving,’ I
announced. ‘She tried to persuade me to stay but I refused.’ They all congratulated me and
begged to be bridesmaids. Then I went to the ¹bogs1 and cried my eyes out. I told my parents:
‘I’m not going to Oxford, I’m marrying Simon.’ ‘Oh good!’ they said. ‘Wonderful.’ When
Simon came that evening, they made lots of happy jokes about not losing a daughter but
gaining a son. Simon chuckled and waved his hands about, poured drinks and proposed toasts
– but I caught the flash of panic in his eyes.

i) Rotation of the earth: deflect ocean waters to the right in the northern
hemisphere and to the left in the southern hemisphere
ii) Shape of landmasses: warm and cold currents flow in obedience to the
topography and configuration of the landmasses
iii) Salinity: where the salinity of an ocean is high, the ocean water is dense and
heavy moves at the bottom of the ocean to low salinity areas; and where the
salinity is low, the ocean eater is light and flow at the ocean surface towards high
salinity
iv) Temperature differences: ocean waters at the equator are more heated and
therefore warmer and lighter than those at the poles. Thus, those at the equator
flow on the ocean surface towards the poles while those at the poles are cold and
heavy, thus moving below the bottom of the ocean towards the equator
v) Planetary winds: the trade winds move equatorial waters pole-wards and west-
wards warming the eastern coasts of the continents. Also, the south east trade wind
drive the South equatorial current which warms the eastern coasts of Brazil
4. Some features of wind erosion: Rock pedestals, Zeugen, Yardangs, Inselberg,
Ventifacts and Dreikanters, Deflation hollows or depression, Mesas and Buttes
Some features of wind deposition: Barchan, Seifs or Longitudinal dunes, Loess
