    • Calvin burping, his small red-rimmed


    eyes, the lose red skin on his neck,
    his violent action towards the cat
    • his abrupt manner and intimidating
    attitude towards his wife
    • Dora’s wariness/fear of Calvin, her
    quiet acceptance of his orders, her
    thoughts about his appearance.
    • 2 Dora seems timid and keen to keep Calvin
    happy; we sympathise with her because
    she is positioned as someone who is not
    treated well.

    4 Example answer on View 2:

    I do not agree that the article is misleading.I agree that it highlights the more positive
    aspects of being a police officer, but this is entirely appropriate for an article trying to
    attract applicants for the role. The text does mention that training is offered for handling
    dangerous events and solving crimes, so it does make it clear that the role does have
    some less pleasant aspects, however it also stresses the job satisfaction too. It also says it
    is a physical, mental and emotional challenge so it does warn people that it won’t always
    be easy. Therefore I disagree with this view and would argue that the balance in the
    article

    is appropriate.
