Mark Scheme for June 2024

Oxford Cambridge and RSA Examinations

OCR (Oxford Cambridge and RSA) is a leading UK awarding body, providing a wide range of
qualifications to meet the needs of candidates of all ages and abilities
...


It is also responsible for developing new specifications to meet national requirements and
the needs of students and teachers
...

This mark scheme is published as an aid to teachers and students, to indicate the requirements
of the examination
...
It does not
indicate the details of the discussions which took place at an examiners’ meeting before
marking commenced
...

Mark schemes should be read in conjunction with the published question papers and the
report on the examination

Make sure that you have accessed and completed the relevant training packages for on -screen marking: RM Assessor Assessor Online Training; OCR

Multiple Choice Question Responses
When a multiple choice question has only a single, correct response and a candidate provides two responses (even if one of th ese responses is
correct), then no mark should be awarded (as it is not possible to determine which was the first response selected by the candidate)
...

Contradictory Responses
When a candidate provides contradictory responses, then no mark should be awarded, even if one of the answers is correct
...
The
response space should be marked from left to right on each line and then line by line until the required number of r esponses have been considered
...
Examiners will have to apply judgement as to whether a ‘second response’ on a line is a
development of the ‘first response’, rather than a separate, discrete response

Short Answer Questions (requiring a more developed response, worth two or more marks)
If the candidates are required to provide a description of, say, three items or factors and four items or factors are provide d, then mark on a similar basis

Examiners will need to apply professional judgement as to whether
the second (or a subsequent) response is a ‘new start’ or simply a poorly expressed continuation of the first response

sic desolatus ad cadaveris solacium: sibilance
(‘hiss’) suggests the frightening nature of being left
alone with a dead body / juxtaposition of desolatus
and ad cadaveris reinforces the proximity
desolatus: he is left alone
ad cadaveris solacium: his job is to comfort the
corpse; this is a strange way of describing the job
of looking after the corpse / reference to a corpse
is a frightening job
perfrictis oculis et paratis: sibilance / ‘-is’ sound to
mimic the nervous rubbing of his eyes
perfrictis, permulcebam, pervigilabam: repetition of
per- to suggest the difficult and frightening nature
of the job / reference to intensifying prefix -per
suggesting the difficult and terrifying nature of the
job
vigiliam, pervigilabam: repetition of the vigilemphasises the challenge of the task

each
...

Style and content points should be accepted
...


AO3

How does Apuleius make this scene vivid and
dramatic?
Answers may include:
• the words of the old man;
per fidem…: the use of direct speech makes the
passage vivid and makes the reader feel like they
are a by-stander to the events
per fidem … per pietatem: repetition to hammer
home his point / emphatic position at the start of
each phrase
cives, civi: repetition / appeal to citizens adds
rhetorical flourish / calling upon civic duty
per pietatem publicam, perempto: alliteration of ‘p’ /
plosive sounds to convey dramatically the
emotions of the speaker
fidem…etc must make full points for each
perempto: dramatic choice of word
subsistite … vindicate: use of imperative(s); the old
man is begging for their help
extremum facinus: superlative to emphasise the
vile nature of the crime
istius feminae: pejorative use of istius / he does not
name the woman
nefariae scelestae: pleonasm / use of synonyms to
emphasise the evil nature of the woman
10

Guidance
Candidates do not need to use technical terms for
rhetorical or literary devices
...

For the top level, there should be very good
engagement with the question, and good
development of points; candidates who do not
satisfy these requirements should not score in level
4 (7-8 marks) irrespective of the number of points
made
...

lacrimis effusis: hyperbole / metaphor to show the
dramatic grief of the woman / repeated ‘-is’ to
emphasise the weeping
quamque sanctissime poterat adiurans: superlative
to show her dramatic attempts to prove her
innocence
cunctos deos: hyperbole / content point – dramatic
as the woman prays by all the gods
tantum scelus: this crime is the worst imaginable

11

Guidance

J282/03
Question

Mark Scheme
Answer

June 2024
Mark

abnuebat: this verb allows the reader to imagine
her shaking her head vigorously to deny the crime /
the imperfect tense suggests repeated denials
ergo senex ille: ellipsis of the main verb makes this
statement dramatic
providentiam ponamus: alliteration of ‘p’ stresses
the referral to divine providence
...
Therefore candidates will be assessed on the quality of the points made and the range and quality of the
examples they have selected from the passage
...
Where there are both strengths and weaknesses in a particular
response, examiners must carefully consider which level is the best fit for the performance overall
...

• good engagement with the question
• expresses a range of sound points, with some development, drawn on a range of relevant aspects of content and
features of literary style, with a range of appropriate quotation, with sound discussion

Question
5

Mark Scheme

June 2024

Answer

Mark

Assess against criteria in the 5-mark AO2 grid (see
below)
...


Guidance
The following examples are intended to exemplify
what might constitute an inconsequential and more
serious error
...


capillis deiectis: ‘(by) growing / letting down my
hair’
‘I let my hair down in order to hide
...
‘what is more /
but / in truth’ etc
linteolo: allow cloth / patch without reference to
‘little’ as this is given in the CLA vocabulary
Inconsequential errors:
None
...

Maximum of 4 serious errors for 3 marks
5 or more serious errors equate to max 2 marks
For 2 marks, at least one full phrase must be
translated correctly
...
If a candidate has communicated the ‘gist’ of a sentence (e
...

they know who has done what to whom) they will score 5, 4 or 3 marks
...

A completely correct translation with no omissions or errors will always score 5
...
This will depend on the gravity of their
errors/omissions and may depend on the number of words in the sentence to be translated or the difficulty of the Latin and is usually decided
at standardisation after a judgment has been formed about the performance of candidates
...

A word containing more than one error should be treated as a maximum of one serious error
...

Perfectly accurate with no errors or omissions, or one inconsequential error

What impression do you have of Thelyphron
(the narrator in sagae Thessalae) and Pythius
(in personae non gratae)?
Possible supporting evidence from the prescribed
text (AO2) and arguments may include (AO3):

Guidance

AO2=5 Candidates who refer to only one character can get
a maximum of 6 marks
...


Sagae Thessalae:
Thelyphron:
• independent: when he runs out of money
he takes matters into his own hands and
gets a job to get more money
• inquisitive / intrepid: he enjoys travelling
and wants to visit the places in the province
of Thessaly
...

However this could be seen as insensitive
...
He tries to get rid of
the weasel by calling it a wicked beast and
telling it to leave before he quickly
experiences his strength

20

No credit can be given to points made about
Canius
...

The scene when he realises that he has
been mutilated is pitiful as he begins to
examine his face
• victimised: when his ears and nose come off
the crowd point at him and identify him with
fingers and nods
• embarrassed: he grows his hair long to hide
his ears and covered up his nose with a
cloth; he feels humiliated
• feeble-minded: his name means womanlyminded, which is meant to be an ironic
reference to his lack of spirit
Pythius:
• opportunist: when he hears that Canius
wants to buy an estate, Pythius lets him

Guidance on applying the marking grids for the 10-mark extended response
Two Assessment Objectives are being assessed in this question – AO2 (Demonstrate knowledge and understanding of literature) and AO3
(Analyse, evaluate and respond to literature)
...
Examiners must use a best fit approach
to the marking grid
...
For example, you
should not be able to achieve a mark of 8 made up of AO2 = 6 and AO3 = 2
...
Responses are credited for AO3 for how well the response addresses the question, for candidates selecting relevant examples
from the set texts they have studied and drawing and expressing conclusions based on the selected examples in relation to the question
posed
