| 85% | Why did Margie hate school / the mechanical teacher? — Geography sector geared too fast → poor scores; tests done in a slot, no fun, no friends. Give 2-3 textual reasons. | 3 MARKS |
| 80% | Reference-to-context extract (real book / telebook / mechanical teacher) with 3 sub-questions. — Name speaker + moment, paraphrase meaning (never copy), add one inference about theme. | 4 MARKS |
| 70% | What does the story suggest about future education and human connection? — Setting → reversed irony with evidence → value/message + link to today + ironic title. | 6 MARKS |
| 60% | Character sketch of Margie or Tommy. — Age/role → 2-3 traits each with proof → emotional close. Don't confuse the two children. | 5 MARKS |
| 55% | The Road Not Taken — which road, why, central metaphor. — Both roads about the same; chose one, can't return; metaphor = choices in life; avoid the 'less travelled is best' oversimplification. | 4 MARKS |
