Criteria · weighting · evidence

Mark scheme

Apply these criteria to Question 2 and to the speaking components.

Task completion (TC) — 5 marks

  • All required content is present: diet, exercise, mental health and a clear opinion.
  • The register suits an article or email for a youth health magazine.
  • The response is 140-150 words and stays on topic throughout.

Range — 5 marks

  • A Type 1 conditional (إِذَا … سَـ) is used accurately — required.
  • A medical passive (يُعَالَجُ / يُوصَى بِـ) is used accurately — required.
  • Further markers add credit: a rhetorical question, a Form II benefit verb, a comparative, a formal connector, statistical language.

Accuracy — 5 marks

  • Conditional tense is correct: a past-form verb after إِذَا and سَـ in the result.
  • The passive is vowelled correctly and its subject is nominative.
  • Prepositions (غَنِيٌّ بِـ، يَفْتَقِرُ إِلَى، يُعَانِي مِنْ) and agreement are accurate.

Role play — communication and accuracy — 4 marks

  • Communication (2): all four prompts are addressed clearly and relevantly.
  • Accuracy (2): prompt 3 uses يُعَانِي مِنْ and prompt 4 requests a conditional; both are formed correctly.
  • Diet is described with غَنِيٌّ بِـ or يَحْتَوِي عَلَى.

Topic conversation — communication and quality of language — 6 marks

  • Communication (3): answers are developed with point, reason and example.
  • Quality of language (3): a Type 1 conditional appears spontaneously in the stress or habit-change question.
  • A Form II benefit verb and academic health vocabulary raise the quality; record if the candidate avoids the conditional by using the present.

Accuracy focus

Use إِذَا … سَـ for a realistic future condition and check medical passive forms carefully.
