Explanation
connect relevant context to interpretation, method or meaning for context is correct because it uses textual evidence, literary reasoning and precise terminology. In An Inspector Calls, this means the student should explain what the evidence suggests, how the writer's language, form or structure creates meaning, and where relevant how context or comparison shapes interpretation. The other options drift into plot retelling, unevidenced opinion or separated comments.

Common mistake
An Inspector Calls: confusing plot summary vs analysis
A weak An Inspector Calls answer treats AO1: use textual references, including quotations, to support and illustrate interpretations. as plot recall, unsupported opinion or loose quotation use instead of literary analysis.
Keep plot summary vs analysis clear. Make a claim, use brief textual evidence, analyse the writer's method and explain how it shapes meaning, context, theme, character or comparison. Text-specific focus: An Inspector Calls is not interchangeable with the other 8702 texts. For this modern text response, anchor the paragraph in responsibility and class, then use brief textual evidence to explain how the writer develops gender. A useful An Inspector Calls answer can contrast generational conflict with dramatic irony, because that gives the analysis a text-specific line of argument instead of a reusable AO paragraph. Method work should notice how language, form or structure frames social critique. Context should be used only when it clarifies interpretation, reader response or audience response. When comparison is relevant, compare both texts or poems directly: whereas one detail may suggest responsibility, another may reveal class or gender. Keep the vocabulary exact: character, speaker, narrator, writer, poet and playwright are not the same role, and the evidence must be explained after it is selected.
