Paper 1 Section B source-analysis requirements
Question
- A. contemporary is significant when tied to analyse.
- B. A broad opinion without context.
- C. A consequence described as a cause.
- D. An interpretation treated as factual evidence.
Answer
Chronology check: contemporary is significant when tied to analyse. is the best answer. It fits Wider world depth assessment requirements within Paper 1 Section B source-analysis requirements and directly supports Analyse and evaluate a contemporary source in the context of the selected wider-world depth study. Check this by using sequence, turning point, period, before, after, continuity, change; do not choose a distractor simply because it sounds historical.
Explanation
The correct option is contemporary is significant when tied to. This MCQ is about Which judgement is best supported, not just general recall. The correct option works because it matches the period context of Paper 1 Section B: Wider world depth studies and uses the same evidence base as Analyse and evaluate a contemporary source in the context of the selected wider-world depth study. The rejected options are weaker: 1) A broad opinion without context.; 2) A consequence described as a cause.; 3) An interpretation treated as factual evidence.. To decide between them, students should place, order, connect, contrast the option against chronology, evidence and the learning objective, then keep evidence separate from opinion and interpretation.
Common mistake
Avoid confusing contemporary
A common mistake is to write about contemporary as a general opinion, or to mix up cause, consequence, change and continuity in Paper 1 Section B: Wider world....
Anchor the answer to Wider world depth assessment requirements, use precise evidence, and state whether contemporary is a cause, consequence, change, continuity or significant development.
