No way they wont give you a zero... You wont get a 4 - 5 band as this would require a synthesized comparison, but you might get a 3 if your analysis was in depth and used a range of techniques.

You won't get 0, but I don't think you will get 5 either. You're probably capped at 4, if your analysis is spot on. But who knows - none of us know the marking scheme.

might get a 1 or 2 since you didn't answer 'verb'

I completely missed the 'compare' part of the question too, something I'm only just now realising. I did, accidentally, contrast the two texts right at the start by saying something like "text 3 uses perceptive, sensory language to provide a spiritual sense of belonging, whilst text 4 uses engaging personal language", but thats all I did. I did a wide range of techniques for each, and the analysis was fairly good, so I'm now hoping for 3, maybe 4 if they just skim read it.....

Compare = Differences and/or Similarities.

Damn. After reading this thread, I realised I didn't compare. I mean, I anaylsed and all and at the end I made a generalised statement about both texts. Agh!

the five marker is the question they use to distinguish people in question 1
If your answer is poor, they will give you a low mark if you do a poor job
