Analyse the text, focusing on form, structure and language. [25] WORLD-CLASS CLIMBING ON KALYMNOS Kalymnos is a beautiful Greek island. Its fantastic limestone cliffs make it a paradise for sport climbing at all grades. Just add sun, sea, secluded beaches, friendly people, delicious food and great weather and you understand why it’s a world-class climbing destination. Small boats will take you from island to island with clear water and amazing beaches. It is a great place to chill out after climbing. Beach bars, snorkelling, kayaking, great food, fishing, diving, scooter tours, yoga: Kalymnos offers it all. This island has made a big impression on those that go and return year after year. FOCUS OF THE KALYMNOS CLIMBING HOLIDAY Kalymnos has become one of the most popular rock climbing destinations in the world. The variety of climbing is endless. For beginners, intermediate as well as experienced climbers there are slabs, technical walls, and steep caves with tufas1. The different climbing areas on the island are close to one another and easy to get to. And they often offer breathtaking views over the Mediterranean sea and the island of Telendos. Finally, a mild climate and the warm hospitality of local inhabitants have made Kalymnos a favourite amongst rock climbers. The Kalymnos climbing holiday will be geared towards your individual abilities and aspirations. Depending on where you are in your climbing career, our climbing guides can focus their attention on your lead climbing skills, which might involve rope awareness, clipping practice and teaching you how to thread anchors. Or they will aim to improve your movement skills and teach you how to climb more efficiently so you can climb harder routes than you have ever climbed before. Some climbers take the opportunity to improve their mental approach to climbing. For instance to learn to deal with fear of falling or failing. Either way, your instructors will aim to give you the best possible climbing experience. KALYMNOS CLIMBING HOLIDAY ITINERARY Saturday: arrival on Kos, take the ferry to Kalymnos, settle in your accommodation. Meet and greet dinner Sunday: single pitch sport climbing with certified guide Monday: single pitch sport climbing and coaching Tuesday: climbing and coaching Wednesday: rest day Thursday: climbing and coaching Friday: climbing and coaching Saturday: departure 06_9093_13_2022_1.6 © UCLES 2022 4

60 55 50 45 40 We don’t have a set list of crags, though some of our favourite climbing areas on Kalymnos are: Afternoon, Arginonta Valley, Lambda (on the island of Telendos), Palionisos, Odyssey and Grande Grotta. KALYMNOS WEATHER & CLIMATE Greece is known for its very hot summers. In the winter there are not many flights to Kos. Spring and autumn are therefore the best times of year to go climbing on Kalymnos. We organise climbing trips to Kalymnos in May and October, when it is not too hot, the sea is warm and the days are long. ACCOMMODATION Your accommodation will be located in Massouri/Myrties, which is where the climbers on the island prefer to stay because of its restaurants, bars, climbing shops, minimarkets and beaches. It is within walking distance to some of Kalymnos’ most popular crags, like ‘Grande Grotte’, ‘Afternoon’, ‘Panorama’ and ‘Poets’. For those wanting to explore Kalymnos, transport is readily available. You can either go by bus or taxi or rent a scooter. Most climbing venues are within walking distance of your accommodation and the water taxi port to take the ferry to the island of Telendos is just down the road. KALYMNOS CLIMBING HOLIDAY INCLUDES • 7 nights accommodation including breakfast • 5 days guided climbing and coaching • Maximum instructor–client ratio is 1:6 • Transport to/from crags QUICK FACTS • Fly to Kos • Ideal for those climbing grade F5 up to F7B+ • Inland and sea-cliff climbing • Limestone slabs, vertical walls and steep overhangs 1tufas: limestone rock formations 06_9093_13_2022_1.6 © UCLES 2022 5

It shows the basis on which Examiners were instructed to award marks. It does not indicate the details of the discussions that took place at an Examiners’ meeting before marking began, which would have considered the acceptability of alternative answers. Mark schemes should be read in conjunction with the question paper and the Principal Examiner Report for Teachers. Cambridge International will not enter into discussions about these mark schemes. Cambridge International is publishing the mark schemes for the May/June 2022 series for most Cambridge IGCSE, Cambridge International A and AS Level and Cambridge Pre-U components, and some Cambridge O Level components.

9093/13 Cambridge International AS & A Level – Mark Scheme PUBLISHED May/June 2022 © UCLES 2022 Page 2 of 16 Generic Marking Principles These general marking principles must be applied by all examiners when marking candidate answers. They should be applied alongside the specific content of the mark scheme or generic level descriptors for a question. Each question paper and mark scheme will also comply with these marking principles. GENERIC MARKING PRINCIPLE 1: Marks must be awarded in line with:  the specific content of the mark scheme or the generic level descriptors for the question  the specific skills defined in the mark scheme or in the generic level descriptors for the question  the standard of response required by a candidate as exemplified by the standardisation scripts. GENERIC MARKING PRINCIPLE 2: Marks awarded are always whole marks (not half marks, or other fractions). GENERIC MARKING PRINCIPLE 3: Marks must be awarded positively:  marks are awarded for correct/valid answers, as defined in the mark scheme. However, credit is given for valid answers which go beyond the scope of the syllabus and mark scheme, referring to your Team Leader as appropriate  marks are awarded when candidates clearly demonstrate what they know and can do  marks are not deducted for errors  marks are not deducted for omissions  answers should only be judged on the quality of spelling, punctuation and grammar when these features are specifically assessed by the question as indicated by the mark scheme. The meaning, however, should be unambiguous. GENERIC MARKING PRINCIPLE 4: Rules must be applied consistently, e.g. in situations where candidates have not followed instructions or in the application of generic level descriptors.

9093/13 Cambridge International AS & A Level – Mark Scheme PUBLISHED May/June 2022 © UCLES 2022 Page 3 of 16 GENERIC MARKING PRINCIPLE 5: Marks should be awarded using the full range of marks defined in the mark scheme for the question (however; the use of the full mark range may be limited according to the quality of the candidate responses seen). GENERIC MARKING PRINCIPLE 6: Marks awarded are based solely on the requirements as defined in the mark scheme. Marks should not be awarded with grade thresholds or grade descriptors in mind.

9093/13 Cambridge International AS & A Level – Mark Scheme PUBLISHED May/June 2022 © UCLES 2022 Page 4 of 16 English & Media subject specific general marking principles (To be read in conjunction with the Generic Marking Principles (and requiring further guidance on how to place marks within levels)) Components using level descriptors:  We use level descriptors as a guide to broad understanding of the qualities normally expected of, or typical of, work in a level.  Level descriptors are a means of general guidance, and should not be interpreted as hurdle statements.  Where indicative content notes are supplied for a question, these are not a prescription of required content, and must not be treated as such. Alternative correct points and unexpected answers in candidates’ scripts must be given marks that fairly reflect the knowledge and skills demonstrated.  While we may have legitimate expectations as to the ground most answers may occupy, we must at all times be prepared to meet candidates on their chosen ground, provided it is relevant ground (e.g. clearly related to and derived from a relevant passage/text and meeting the mark scheme requirements for the question).

9093/13 Cambridge International AS & A Level – Mark Scheme PUBLISHED May/June 2022 © UCLES 2022 Page 5 of 16 English Language specific marking instructions: AO1 Read and demonstrate understanding of a wide variety of texts. (Understanding)  Marks should be awarded for the accuracy of the candidate’s understanding of the text and its features, not for any analysis of them which is recognised under AO3.  Where comparison is required, marks should be awarded for the candidate’s recognition of similarities and differences between the texts and their features, not for any consequent analysis.  When awarding a ‘best-fit’ mark within a Level for each AO, consider each bullet point equally. AO2 Write effectively, creatively, accurately and appropriately, for a range of audiences and purposes. (Writing)  Marks should be awarded equally on the basis of the level of the candidate’s written expression (range of features used and accuracy) and the development of their writing (its organisation and relevance to task and audience).  When awarding a ‘best-fit’ mark within a Level for each AO, consider each bullet point equally. AO3: Analyse the ways in which writers’ and speakers’ choices of form, structure and language produce meaning and style. (Analysis)  Marks should be awarded equally on the basis of the level of the candidate’s analysis of the text’s elements (form, structure and language) and of the writer’s stylistic choices (including how style relates to audience and shapes meaning).  When awarding a ‘best-fit’ mark within a Level for each AO, consider each bullet point equally. In response to Question 1(a), candidates are required to write between 150 and 200 words. While there is no direct penalty for failing to adhere to this requirement, examiners should consider this an aspect of the response’s ‘relevance to purpose’. As such, adherence to the word limit is assessed as part of the second bullet point of AO2.
