Correct a weak response to this AQA English Language objective: Use imagery and figurative language where it strengthens the intended effect.

Use imagery and figurative language response: A weak response usually summarises, guesses, or names a method without effect. Improve it by choosing evidence, explaining the effect, and linking the point to audience, purpose or writer purpose method. For Descriptive writing, keep one clear focus, select brief evidence or a planned example, explain the method or writing choice, and link the point to effect, audience, purpose, form or tone where relevant.

This is effective because it makes the mistake correction, evidence, explanation and assessment objective visible. Replace summary with a precise point, brief evidence, method, effect and writer purpose so the correction is exam-ready. Descriptive writing needs a language method, such as word choice or imagery, linked to reader effect. Descriptive writing should plan audience, purpose, form, tone, viewpoint, content and structure before drafting.
