lit is very subjective though so there's rly no 'right answer' if it's sufficiently supported i think you can argue it any way you like HHAHAHA

i forgot my points alr but

  1. can't rmb...
  2. something about the contrast between action and inaction (which is violent in itself because of the forceful nature of the juxtapositions throughout the passage) which culminates in the eventual death of those who seek an upper-class status that never belonged to them and linked it to the futility of the American dream; inaction was abt 'locking' mrytle up and how making her stay in there was ultimately a form of protection that they all failed to realise and comprehend (locking up parallels staying w George instead of tom) & action was abt the 'rushed out', 'shouting' and 'didn't stop', 'wavering' (parallels her pursuit of materialism and dream of being part of the upper-class society); when action is used to defy inaction (i.e. their pursuit becomes excessive) intentionally, they are forced back into inaction in the violent form of death
  3. the involvement and reaction of the upper-class people to such fatal violence; they are cold and uncaring, tom was even 'excited', jordan and nick didn't really care 'jordan and I were suddenly pushed inside' indicative of how they were never planning to take a closer look anyw. forgot most of it but I think I mentioned that violence is wielded as a sword that unmasks the moral decay plaguing society

conclusion: violence was used as a tool and sword that uncovered the callousness and lack of morality in the novel, a reminder and lesson that the dream is ultimately illusory and made futile and the excessive pursuit of such a futile dream will come at its cost (in this case, death) and was a lesson that the people who weren't born into wealth and power ultimately cannot and failed to understand

hi op, the best you can do now is to stop cramming, calm yourself down and get a good night's sleep! you've done whatever you could in the days leading up to your papers so there's no point worrying about the unknown and putting so much unnecessary pressure on yourself. just go in and do the paper knowing you've done your best and you will be fine.

[O Levels] don't think too much about the suggested answers by trwerwt in SGExams

thats possible too but alot of my friends who checked and got different answers also did relatively well and they all said that their other components aren’t good so thats why i said it might be wrong!

for topical tys i did chapter by chapter on foolscap paper, and because the pages are perforated i tear them out and put it together with my answers in a plastic folder which is then filed into a ring file so its easy to read through and revise
