2 0510/13/M/J/22 © UCLES 2022 Exercise 1 Read the article, and then answer the following questions. My Seychelles volunteering experience By Alexi Smith The Republic of Seychelles is a group of 115 islands in the Indian Ocean. It’s a popular destination for tourists. While many travel to the islands for water sports and exotic food, the majority are attracted by the stunning scenery. Recently, the number of tourists has risen significantly, bringing many economic benefits. Despite these, however, tourism has also led to increased development which is threatening the islands’ wildlife. Given that Seychelles’ marine environment is so attractive to tourists, protecting the ocean surrounding the islands is a priority. One project recently announced by the government is to establish marine protected areas covering 16% of these waters. Fregate Island is the furthest east of Seychelles, and in its northern part there is an eco-resort with luxury cabins. Here, income from tourism helps fund conservation programmes such as reducing harmful non-native plants and protecting rare species. Through intensive efforts, the island is now free from rats, for example. This has enabled the delicate ecosystem, including beetles and tortoises, to be successful. When I heard about a position as a conservation volunteer, I applied, and was accepted. Activities on Fregate Island varied, but primarily involved observing and recording the island’s marine and land wildlife. Helping guests gain a deeper understanding of the island’s conservation approaches was also a key role for all volunteers. I helped with projects like collecting data on marine life. Coral, for example, supports 25% of all other marine life and so is vitally important, but it takes hundreds of years to grow. We were testing the success of growing coral more quickly on special man-made underwater structures. Much of the area’s coral is at risk, partly due to increased sea temperatures, which have an impact on other marine species too. This artificial method of growing coral could be helpful in replacing such a vital underwater resource. There was also land work. The sandy beaches of Fregate Island provide nesting habitats for two rare turtle species. Whereas in most parts of the world turtles lay eggs at night when it’s safer, this is one of the few locations where it happens in daylight, I was delighted to discover. During the nesting season, turtles arrive on the 7 beaches on the island, allowing us to easily witness the event. When I was there, we spotted over 240 turtles. We attached small labels, or tags, to 23 of them, containing various details about the turtles, which would be useful to know if they were seen again. Turtle season is a busy time for volunteers as turtles bury their eggs in the sand, and in some locations, their nests are being washed away. Because of this, we had to move some of them to safety. The majority of turtles get eaten by other animals before reaching adulthood, so protecting every nest is important for conserving these fascinating creatures. One of the islands’ most well-known conservation successes is a bird called the Seychelles magpie robin. In 1970 only 16 remained, all on Fregate Island. Since then, conservation efforts have saved the species. Some magpie robins were transferred to other Seychelles islands and new breeding populations were established. Their habitats were protected and recent research counted 170 birds. On Fregate Island, we positioned nest boxes in various locations and checked them regularly for eggs or chicks. Females typically lay a single egg, which they sit on for up to 22 days, until the chick emerges. At 14 days, a tag is attached to its leg for identification later. Despite the bird population suffering a mystery disease a few years ago, the project is an example of successful conservation management.

4 0510/13/M/J/22 © UCLES 2022 Exercise 2 Read sections (A–C) of a magazine article about a birthday present that the writer received. Then answer Question 10(a)–(h). The Birthday Present A A couple of years ago, at the start of the summer holidays, my family and I were staying at my grandmother’s house. We were there for my birthday, and on that morning, I came downstairs to find a large box with my name on it. I had no idea what might be inside, as I hadn’t told anyone what presents I wanted. Unlike my sister, who writes birthday lists every year, I prefer to let people choose my presents. It’s more fun that way. Sometimes I get something I would never have thought to ask for, like the bright red shirt my mum got me one year. I always used to go for darker colours, but it looked much better than I expected, and now my wardrobe’s full of colour! Anyway, I opened the box, and inside I discovered a unicycle – a type of bike with only one wheel! To be honest, I was a little disappointed because I was so sure I would never be able to ride it. What’s more, it didn’t come with instructions! B There wasn’t much room at my grandmother’s. Our garden at home is much bigger so I decided it would be better to try riding my unicycle there. Looking back though, it’s a pity as I think she would have liked to see me have a go. But anyway, it wasn’t until I got home that I actually took my birthday gift out of the box. At first, I couldn’t even get on it, and certainly not ride anywhere, until I watched some videos online – and that’s when it all started to make more sense. Within just a few days, to my amazement, I was riding it! I was soon testing myself by going further and faster, and my friends were asking to have a go too. Although a few of them decided that it was too hard, and riding two-wheeled bikes was more fun, my unicycle was pretty popular that first summer! C When I think back to how I felt about it at the start, I can’t believe how much fun I’ve had! It feels as natural as riding my normal bike now. I ride my unicycle a lot during the school holidays, almost every day, in fact. The park near me has lots of nice flat paths. I can’t use it so much during term time though. I wish I could ride it to school every day, but it’s too far from my house, and not really practical when I need to wear a big school coat and carry heavy books. I think it might be a little tricky to balance lots of things on a unicycle! I still ride it at least once a week though, as I worry that if I don’t, I might forget how to do it, and that would be such a shame.

6 0510/13/M/J/22 © UCLES 2022 Exercise 3 Read the article about plant blindness, which is the lack of awareness of the plants around us, and then complete the notes. Plant blindness If you ask someone to describe what they see in a picture of a lion hiding in grass, it is highly likely that the lion is the first thing they’ll mention, and that the grass might not be seen or noticed in the same way. Most people see the lion as the key element in the picture and the grass as far less important. This is an example of what some scientists call ‘plant blindness’ – the lack of awareness of the plants around us. Plant blindness is a serious issue, particularly when you consider how important plants are to us and to the environment. Something that contributes to plant blindness is that people who live in cities are often separated from nature. A consequence of this is that when young people think about going to university, studying plant science may be less attractive. And this really matters. The study of plants is vital because without research, we can’t develop better crops. Earlier education also plays an important role in attitudes towards plant life. It has been shown that due to plant blindness, many young children don’t realise that plants are living things and in fact this has to be taught. And when they are older, studies show that students are more likely to learn about animals than plants in biology lessons at school. While we are all aware of the need to save endangered animals, and are taught about how important this is, it can mean that endangered plants often get less attention. When we realise that the number of plants at risk around the world is actually far higher than the number of endangered animals, we can understand the seriousness of the problem. The reality is that people find it easier to build relationships with animals, particularly when they display human-like characteristics. There are other factors leading to plant blindness. It is said that our eyes take in 10 million pieces of data per second. One of the ways in which our brains have developed to cope with so much information is to pay less attention to things that don’t appear to move, like plants. For example, our attention is more likely to be drawn to a bee flying around than it is to the flower it lands on. Our brains also find it easier to identify objects that have different colours. So when we look at a rainforest, which appears to be completely green, we tend not to see individual plants. This is a serious problem as rainforests are exactly the sorts of places where we should be looking to find plant species that we might be able to use for different medicines. We will miss the chance to develop new treatments if we don’t learn to appreciate the incredible range of plants there are in the natural world.

8 0510/13/M/J/22 © UCLES 2022 Exercise 4 13 Read the article about being part of a TV studio audience. Write a summary of the instructions given to people who want to be in a TV studio audience. Your summary should be about 80 words long (and no more than 90 words long). You should use your own words as far as possible. You will receive up to 6 marks for the content of your summary, and up to 6 marks for the style and accuracy of your language. TV studio audiences When you watch a TV chat show, do you think about the people in the audience that are watching it live? Maybe you’ve never noticed them! But look closely, and you’ll start to realise certain things. If you’re in a studio audience, for example, you can’t wear T-shirts with the names of companies printed on them, as TV shows can’t advertise a particular brand. Although the host of the show and the people appearing on it are very important, the audience also has a key role. Audience members are chosen to reflect the type of people who will be watching it at home. If a programme is being made for young adults, then this is the age group that will be invited to attend the show. And depending on the type of show, there are other things to keep in mind. You need to concentrate at all times. It’s not as simple as you might think. You have to demonstrate enthusiasm for what’s happening on stage. This is usually done by clapping when you’re supposed to, for example. At the same time, however, you have to ignore the cameras. It’s quite a skill! If you’re lucky, you might be selected to take part in the show, perhaps by asking a question. However, if you are chosen, don’t try and take control – leave that to the professionals! Comedy shows often have live audiences to help comedians to perform better. Telling jokes is easier when there is someone there to laugh at them, but you’ll need to make sure you laugh in the right places! It takes a long time to record a programme, and there won’t always be interesting things going on so you need to have patience. If you get hungry during the show, unfortunately you can’t do anything about it – there’s no eating until you leave! But anyone who’s had the experience of being in a TV studio audience will have a great time, and have the fun of trying to spot themselves when the programme is shown!

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.

0510/13 Cambridge IGCSE – Mark Scheme PUBLISHED May/June 2022 © UCLES 2022 Page 2 of 11 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. 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.

0510/13 Cambridge IGCSE – Mark Scheme PUBLISHED May/June 2022 © UCLES 2022 Page 9 of 11 Generic marking criteria for Exercises 5 and 6 The following general instructions, and table of marking criteria, apply to both Exercises 5 and 6.  You should decide on a mark for Content and Language separately.  Content covers the relevance (i.e. whether the piece fulfils the task and the awareness of purpose/audience/register) and the development of ideas (i.e. the detail/explanation provided).  Language covers range (i.e. complexity of vocabulary and sentence structure) and accuracy (of grammar, spelling, punctuation and text organisation).  When deciding on a mark for Content or Language, first of all decide which band is most appropriate. There will not necessarily be an exact fit. Then decide between the lower or the higher mark. Use the lower mark if it fulfils some of the requirements of the band and the higher mark if it fulfills all the requirements of the band.  When deciding on a mark for Content, look at both relevance and development of ideas. First ask yourself whether the writing fulfils the task, in terms of points to be covered and the required length. If the task is generally fulfilled it will be awarded at least 3–4 marks.  When deciding on a mark for Language, look at both the range and the accuracy of the language. A useful starting point would be first to gain an impression of the level, then to focus on the level descriptors in order to decide on the best fit.  If the writing is considerably shorter than the stated word length, i.e. below 70 words, it should be given a maximum of 2 marks for Content.  If the writing is only partly relevant and therefore can be awarded only 1–2 Content marks, the full range of marks for Language is still available.  If the writing is totally irrelevant and has nothing to do with the question asked, it should be given 0 marks for Content and Language. Question Answer Marks 14 Award up to a total of 12 marks. Up to 6 marks to be awarded for Content. Plus up to 6 marks to be awarded for Language. See generic marking criteria for Exercises 5 and 6. 12 Question Answer Marks 15 Award up to a total of 12 marks. Up to 6 marks to be awarded for Content.
