Answer

Distinguish between what the text answer: Select a brief phrase, infer the implied meaning, then explain how the evidence supports it for Distinguish between what the text.

Explanation

Distinguish between what the text uses Select a brief phrase, infer the implied meaning, then explain how the evidence supports it for Distinguish between what the text because it matches the inference from evidence focus for Understanding fiction sources. It separates the skill from weaker choices and keeps the response tied to the exact objective. Use AO1: select one brief phrase, infer the implicit meaning, and explain how the evidence proves the point for Understanding fiction sources. Distinguish between what the text states should use brief evidence and explain what that evidence implies, so the inference is not just explicit summary. Understanding fiction sources should plan audience, purpose, form, tone, viewpoint, content and structure before drafting.

Common mistake

distinguish: summary instead of analysis

Students sometimes summarise Understanding fiction sources instead of explaining how the objective works in the answer.

Correct this by selecting a brief detail, explaining its effect, and linking the point back to "Distinguish between what the text states directly and what the reader can infer."
