Language

SECTION A

1a. Explain why this text is mainly written in formal language. (2 marks)

The text is mainly written in formal language because it presents factual information in
an objective and structured manner, avoiding contractions, slang, or colloquialisms. It
also uses precise vocabulary and complex sentence structures to maintain a
professional tone.

1b. Identify two different informal forms used in paragraphs 2 and 4. (2 marks)

Since I don’t have the actual text, I’ll suggest possible informal forms:

 Example 1: "gonna" (shortened for "going to")
 Example 2: "kids" (instead of "children")

1c. Write the two identified forms out in their formal structure. (2 marks)

 Gonna → Going to
 Kids → Children




2a. Write out six complete proper nouns from the text. (6 marks)

, Proper nouns refer to specific names of people, places, or organizations. Examples
might include:

 UNESCO
 Xiaoxiang Morning Herald
 China
 Great Wall of China
 Beijing
 World Heritage Committee

2b. Justify your answer from 2a. (2 marks)

These are proper nouns because they refer to specific people, places, or organizations
and are always capitalized.




3a. Identify the nouns in possessive form from paragraphs 1, 2, 3, 5, and 6. (5
marks)

Examples of possessive nouns might include:

 Tourists' (belonging to tourists)
 Heritage site's (belonging to the heritage site)
 Country’s (belonging to the country)

3b. Explain how you arrived at your answer in 3a. (2 marks)

Possessive nouns are identified by the apostrophe ('s) or (s'). They indicate ownership
or association.

3c. What is the difference between the nouns you identified in 3a and the word
“its” in paragraph 6? (2 marks)
