...Crucible Essay Exam task P.40 Beginning (He appears loaded down).... To P.42 ending (He starts for the bed) Explore the ways in which Miller presents authority in this passage. In your answer you must consider how the playwright uses literary, linguistic and rhetorical devices and conventions to create specific dramatic effects. Authority in this passage is crafted by Miller with the use of specific literary and linguistic devices. For example the use of stage directions and other characters reaction to certain types of authority play a big part in the way authority is either delivered or received. Prior to this passage, Putnam, Giles and Parris are talking about wanting to get reverend Hale involved in the events after the girls had been dancing. Before Hale even enters the audience already has a sense that he will bring authority with him, since he has the information everyone else desires. When Hale first enters in the scene, Parris is instantly ‘delighted’. Such a response to someone entering the scene shows a clear sense of relief upon the characters around Hale to know his presence is now there in the passage. Miller also crafts Hale’s utterances in a way that shows his authority subtly yet effectively. Phrases like ‘they must be’ and ‘we shall need some hard study’ shows how Miller is crafting these assertive declarative statements in order to show Hale’s commanding voice and authority upon those around him. Other characters modes of address towards Hale...

...From the moment a test is put down in front of me I feel the nerves begin. My palms begin to sweat, my legs shake and I start to bite my lip and look around as everyone is almost finished when I have not even turned to the second page of the exam. Test anxiety is something that I have struggled with as a student since the beginning of high school. It is something that I could not seem to get rid of no matter how hard I studied. I knew the material that was taught but my mind went blank. Testing for myself and many students can be a frightening experience but my anxiety would take over and falsely portray my knowledge as a student. It lowered my GPA, caused me to struggle daily in the classroom and made me feel embarrassed to admit where I...

...glish literature How to Write an A* GCSE English Literature Poetry Response Copyright © 2008 www.englishteaching.co.uk + www.english-teaching.co.uk How to Write an A* GCSE English Literature Poetry Response 2 The Poetry Component of the GCSE Literature Paper The poetry task is the second question on the GCSE English Literature exam paper. It is perhaps the more demanding of the tasks on the paper, because unlike the question on the prose, in this section you are being asked to compare four poems simultaneously throughout your answer. In the exam you should spend one hour on this section of the paper. Given the greater demand of the task, your response to the poetry is worth more marks than the response to the prose. In order to perform at the highest level on this paper, it is important that you develop a nuanced and sophisticated comparative written style. However, this is achievable if you adopt a systematic approach to ordering and writing your responses. It does, however, demand considerable practice prior to the final examination. What is the Examiner looking for in a response to the Poetry? The exam is designed to test your ability to do the following things: Can you respond to the poems critically, in detail, and sensitively using textual evidence? Can Can you explore language, structure and form contribute to the meaning of texts? Can Can you compare the ways that ideas, themes and relationships are presented in the poems by...

...For those planning to take the Foreign Service Officer exam (FSOE): “Define realpolitik and describe how this principle is evident in the strategies of Otto Von Bismarck and Camillo di Cavour.” This is one of the questions in the world history portion of the FSOE written test. I’ve heard people say that the FSOE is the most grueling government exam because the Department of Foreign Affairs is, they say, the most elite office in the government. Some even dare say that the exam is more difficult than the bar. I really wouldn’t know but one thing’s for sure: the mortality rate is definitely higher in the FSOE. Out of 628 examinees in 2011, only 9 passed. That's 1.4%. I heard there was even a year when no one passed. I'm one of the lucky 9 who made it. And so to help future examinees prepare for the FSOE, I thought of writing down and sharing my experience. This is my own small way to thank and show appreciation for the people who supported me and helped me make it through. The exam is difficult because it’s the type of exam which you can’t really study for. The scope covers everything under the sun, and, actually, none of the topics I studied for was asked. The exam proctor told my batch that the best time to review for the FSOE is in college, which is a little bit too late by now, right? So the best tip I can give is simply to make reading a habit. Try committing yourself to read for at least 30 minutes every day and you’ll have a pretty strong fighting chance. What to read...

...History[edit] Students taking a scholarship examination inside a classroom in 1940 Ancient China was the first country in the world that implemented a nationwide standardized test, which was called the imperial examination. The main purpose of this examination was to select for able candidates for specific governmental positions.[4] The imperial examination was established by the Sui Dynasty in 605 AD and was later abolished by the Qing Dynasty 1300 years later in 1905. England had adopted this examination system in 1806 to select specific candidates for positions in Her Majesty's Civil Service,modeled on the Chinese imperial examination. This examination system was later applied to education and it started to influence other parts of the world as it became a prominent standard (e.g. regulations to prevent the markers from knowing the identity of candidates), of delivering standardized tests. Influence of World Wars on Testing Both World War I and World War II made many people realize the necessity of standardized testing and the benefits associated with these tests. One main reason people saw the benefits was from the Army Alpha and Army Beta tests, which were used during WWI to determine human abilities. Alongside the Army Alpha, the Stanford-Binet Intelligence Scale "added momentum to the testing movement."[5] Soon after, colleges and industry began using tests to help in accepting and hiring people based on performance of the test. Another reason more tests...

...wearing hijabs, or African womyn dressed in a kanga walking with her children down the street. Because of the diversity I encountered, I found that I did not understand the significance of a hijab or a kanga which influenced me to research African cultures and the Qu’ran outside of school to further my knowledge about world cultures and formulate an understanding of the diverse people living next to me. Many times I remember my father's swimmers from the Proctor swim team coming to the house, and in the kitchen where they would sit and talk would be full of dialects of Russian, Bosnian, and most prominently Spanish. The diversity I have experienced in Utica has undoubtedly shaped my worldview. Living in Utica, my neighbor (who later became my best friend) is mixed race and in a sense opened my eyes to racial acceptance in childhood. My best friends father is black and his mother is white, but of course as a child I was not conscious as racial identity. But I remember looking at my best friends father grading his college students essays, just like I had watched my white father doing at the breakfast table time and time again, and realizing, he was black. Looking at him, I realized that even though my best friend's father was black, he was fully capable of doing the same things as my father, which meant any other person of color can do anything as well, or better than anyone else. I carried this mentality through life, and even aided my mixed race best friend when he struggled to find...
