Answer

Distinguish between what the text answer: Compare both viewpoints with a similarity, a difference and a whereas link for Distinguish between what the text.

Explanation

Distinguish between what the text uses Compare both viewpoints with a similarity, a difference and a whereas link for Distinguish between what the text because it matches the comparison and viewpoint focus for Understanding fiction sources. It separates the skill from weaker choices and keeps the response tied to the exact objective. Use AO3: compare both sources with a clear similarity, difference and whereas link instead of writing two separate summaries. 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.
