(Total for Question 1 = 1 mark) 2 Read this extract. It was bitter cold; so cold, that the air almost took the skin off my face as I ran; but I ran on, crying to think how my poor little darling must be perished and frightened. I was within sight of the holly-trees, when I saw a shepherd coming down the hill, bearing something in his arms wrapped in his cloak. He shouted to me, and asked me if I had lost a child; and, when I could not speak for crying, he bore towards me, and I saw my wee one, lying still, and white, and stiff in his arms, as if she had been dead. He told me he had been up the Fells to gather in his sheep, before the deep cold of night came on, and that under the holly-trees (black marks on the hill-side, where no other bush was for miles around) he had found my little lady – my lamb – my queen – my darling – stiff and cold in the terrible sleep which is frost-begotten*. From the extract, give two ways in which the writer shows what the weather was like. You may use your own words or quotations from the text. 1 ................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................ .................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................... 2 ................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................ ....................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................

He told me he had been up the Fells to gather in his sheep, before the deep cold of night came on, and that under the holly-trees (black marks on the hill-side, where no other bush was for miles around) he had found my little lady – my lamb – my queen – my darling - stiff and cold in the terrible sleep which is frost-begotten*. Oh! the joy and the tears of having her in my arms once again for I would not let him carry her; but took her, cloak and all, into my own arms, and held her near my own warm neck and heart, and felt the life stealing slowly back again into her little gentle limbs. But she was still insensible when we reached the hall, and I had no breath for speech. We went in by the kitchen-door. “Bring the warming-pan**,” said I; and I carried her upstairs, and began undressing her by the nursery fire. I called my little lammie*** all the sweet and playful names I could think of, – even while my eyes were blinded by my tears; and at last, oh! at length she opened her large blue eyes. Then I put her into her warm bed and I made up my mind to sit by my darling’s bedside the live-long night. She fell away into a soft sleep as soon as her pretty head had touched the pillow, and I watched by her till morning light; when she wakened up bright and clear – or so I thought at first – and, my dears, so I think now. In the extract, how does the writer use language and structure to show Hester’s love for Rosamond? Support your views with reference to the text.
