English Single text question.

Most people here seem to have done the paper i'm getting- it has both dickinson and boland in the poetry. Can anyone remember what the question on Wuthering Heights was? It's the other choice besides Hamlet, Circle of friends etc. It's really important that i get it coz we havent done our comparative yet so i'm down marks already.

I got my paper back today (not the results though ) it was:
(i) "Even when we are most critical of Heathcliff, Emily Bronte ensures our sympathy by reminding us of his suffering."
Write a response to this view of Heathcliff, supporting your answer by reference to the text.

OR

(ii) "Bronte, in her novel Wuthering Heights, uses the double narrator method."
Evaluate the roles of both Lockwood and Nelly Dean as narrators, supporting the points you make by reference to the text.


Thats really awful about not having the comparative done, I can't believe a teacher would leave out 70 marks like that. If you know what those texts are, try to get them read through once before the exam and take a stab at the question, you'll at least pick up a few marks and check out skoool.ie for pointers on how to answer the question.

For what it's worth, we had the comparative done and I still left it out because all I had prepared for my mock was Theme & Issue which didn't come up, Genre is poxy so I think I'll just get V&V done and leave it alone. Silly section of the course anyway, or maybe that's just my teacher's choice of texts. Ah well, they're only mocks!!
