You should write 600–900 words for each question.

Section A: Imaginative writing

1 Write a story which begins with the following sentence: Anna hesitated, wondering if she had
made the right decision. In your writing, create a sense of suspense and drama.

2 Write two contrasting diary entries (300–450 words each): the first by a person setting out on a
long expedition; the second by the same person after arriving home safely. In your writing, create
a sense of adventure and atmosphere.

3 Write a descriptive piece called On the Space Station. In your writing, focus on sound, movement
and colour to help your reader imagine the scene.

Section B: Writing for an audience

4 Your class recently went on a school trip to a farm. Your teacher has asked you to write about it for
the school magazine. Write a report, describing what you learned on the trip and evaluating how
useful the trip was.

5 Last month, a new sports and leisure centre opened in your local area. Write two contrasting
reviews (300–450 words each) of the centre, which will be published on a website called Local
Matters. One of the reviews is very positive about the new centre, and the other is negative
about it.

6 You have decided to organise an event to clean up your local area. You are going to give a
speech to students in your school to talk about the benefits of looking after the local area, and to
encourage students to participate in the event. Write the text for the speech. In your writing, create
a sense of the importance of taking pride in your local area.
