5 Candidates make a sustained
attempt to rephrase the text
language. Their expression is
secure. Allow phrases from the
text which are difficult to
substitute
4 There is a noticeable attempt
to re-phrase the text. The
summary is free from stretches
of concentrated lifting and the
expression is generally sound.
5 Apart from very occasional
slips, the language is accurate.
Any occasional errors are either
slips or minor errors. Sentence
structure is varied and there is a
marked ability to original
complex syntax outside text
structures. Punctuation is
accurate and helpful to the
reader. Spelling is secure
across the full range of
vocabulary used.
4 The language is almost always
accurate. Serious errors will be
so isolated as to be almost
unnoticeable. Sentences will
show some variation including
original complex syntax outside

attempts to substitutes will

accurate and generally Helpful.
Spelling is nearly always
secure.
3 The language is fairly accurate
but simple sentences tend to
dominate the writing. When
candidates use more complex
structures, serious errors may
occur. Some major errors or
verb form and tense will be
seen but these will not impede
understanding. Although linking
words are used, these may not
be very appropriate.
2 Meaning is not in doubt, but
serious errors are becoming
more frequent. Simple
structures will be accurate,
although this accuracy is not
sustained for long. Simple
punctuation will usually be
correct, with occasional errors
of sentence separation. Spelling
is largely accurate, but mistakes
will occur in handling the more
difficult words.
1-0 Distorted detail will destroy the
sequence in places. Heavy
frequency of serious errors,
impeding the reading in many
places. Fractured syntax is
much more pronounced at this
level, and punctuation falters.
Errors of sentence separation
are liable to be frequent.
