Question 2 is worth 8 marks and tests your ability to analyse how the writer uses language to achieve effects and influence the reader. This is a core skill in GCSE English Language and is assessed under AO2. The question will direct you to a specific section of the extract and ask you to comment on the writer's use of language.
A typical Q2 might read:
Look in detail at this extract from lines 10 to 18. How does the writer use language here to describe [the storm / the character's fear / the setting]?
You could also be asked about how language is used to create a particular mood, convey a character's emotions, or build tension.
