(1m) Answer The second time round, she mistimed her jump and fell on the hard pavement, losing consciousness as a result. I got it correct J My answer is incorrect because 2 Question Both Captain Wentworth and Louisa were “pallid” (line 32) in the face. What does this mean, and why were both of them pallid? (2m) Answer “Pallid” refers to being drained of blood or pale and sickly looking.

I got it correct J My answer is incorrect because 3 Question Why was Mary’s husband “immoveable” (line 37)?

I got it correct J My answer is incorrect because 5b Question “Every one capable of thinking felt the advantage of the idea …” (lines 72-73) Why would any one not be “capable of thinking”? Answer Anyone still in shock, whatever the degree, would not be in a position to reason/think clearly. I got it correct J My answer is incorrect because 5c Question “Every one capable of thinking felt the advantage of the idea …” (lines 72-73) What was “the idea”? (1m) Answer It was that Captain Benwick rather than Captain Wentworth should go to fetch a doctor, “He [Captain Benwick] knows where a surgeon is to be found”.

I got it correct J My answer is incorrect because 6c Question Why did Anne have to assuage the feelings of Captain Wentworth? (1m) Answer Captain Wentworth was overwhelmed by guilt as he had not been able to prevent the fall and also, overwhelmed by his concern for Louisa, who he was courting. I got it correct J My answer is incorrect because 7 Question In what way was Captain Hapville instantly useful?

(1m) Answer She had suffered a severe blow to the head, but it was not fatal. I got it correct J My answer is incorrect because 10b Question Was this what the others had expected?
