What examiners said
The majority of candidates identified the correct response ‘castle’. Several candidates chose the distractors ‘market’ and ‘museum’.
— Examiner report, October/November 2023, 0993/31 Q1(a) (Cambridge)
There was a very mixed response here. Some candidates did not include the preposition and just wrote ’river’ while a large number of candidates wrote ‘in the river’. ‘River’ was sometimes spelt as ‘rever’ or ‘reever’. Other responses that could not be credited were ‘hotel’, ‘station’ and ‘neither the river’
— Examiner report, October/November 2023, 0993/31 Q1(b) (Cambridge)
This was very well attempted, and the vast majority of candidates were able to score a mark. Some candidates went for the distractor ‘laptop’ and some candidates lost the mark by writing the plural ‘printers’. Other responses that could not be credited were ‘print’, ‘printed’ and ‘printing’
