Mark scheme, page 11

0457/32 Cambridge IGCSE – Mark Scheme PUBLISHED May/June 2017 © UCLES 2017 Page 11 of 18 Question Answer Marks Notes 3(a) Indicative content An opinion is a point of view, belief, judgement or something that someone thinks but which cannot be verified or proven to be true. The following examples of opinions may be found in Source 4: • Fairtrade cannot help all workers • (fair trade) is too small to make a difference • (fair trade) will not make trade fairer. • There are better ways to improve world trade than fair trade • Fair trade is just a dream. • The market alone should set prices. • I believe that ‘survival of the fittest’ works best • Everybody Wins Level 3 (3 marks) Strong response The response demonstrates clear understanding of the nature of opinion and applies this accurately to a correct example identified from the source. Level 2 (2 marks) Reasonable response The response demonstrates some understanding of the nature of opinion and attempts to apply this to a correct example identified from the source. The explanation lacks some clarity and accuracy. Level 1 (1 mark) Basic response The candidate identifies one opinion from the source correctly but does not explain the reason; the response demonstrates very little or no understanding of the nature of opinion. Level 0 (0 marks) No relevant or creditworthy material. 3 Further Guidance (a) If the example is incorrect the candidate must score 0 even if the reasoning suggests some understanding of the nature of opinion.

0457/32 Cambridge IGCSE – Mark Scheme PUBLISHED May/June 2017 © UCLES 2017 Page 12 of 18 Question Answer Marks Notes 3(b) Indicative Content A prediction is generally defined as a statement suggesting something which is likely to happen in the future. The following examples of predictions may be found in Source 4: • Fair trade will continue to grow in the future. • It (fair trade) is too small to make a difference and will not make trade fairer. Level 3 (3 marks) Strong response The response demonstrates clear understanding of the nature of prediction and applies this accurately to a correct example identified from the source. Level 2 (2 marks) Reasonable response The response demonstrates some understanding of the nature of prediction and attempts to apply this to a correct example identified from the source. The explanation lacks some clarity and accuracy. Level 1 (1 mark) Basic response The candidate identifies one prediction from the source correctly but does not explain the reason; the response demonstrates very little or no understanding of the nature of prediction. Level 0 (0 marks) No relevant response or creditworthy material. 3 Further Guidance (a) If the example is incorrect the candidate must score 0 even if the reasoning suggests some understanding of the nature of prediction.

Mark scheme, page 13

0457/32 Cambridge IGCSE – Mark Scheme PUBLISHED May/June 2017 © UCLES 2017 Page 13 of 18 Question Answer Marks Notes 3(c) Indicative content Candidates are expected to evaluate the reasoning in the two statements and compare their effectiveness. They should make a supported judgement with some explanation about which person has the most effective reasoning. Candidates may consider the following types of issue: • quality of the argument • clarity • tone – emotive; exaggerated; precise • language • balance • quality of the evidence • relevance • sufficiency – sample • source • date – how recent • factual, opinion, value, anecdote • testimony – from experience and expert • knowledge claims • ability to see • sources of bias • gender • political • personal values • experience • likelihood of solutions working and consequences of their ideas • acceptability of their values to others • how likely other people are to agree with their perspective/view 12

Mark scheme, page 14

0457/32 Cambridge IGCSE – Mark Scheme PUBLISHED May/June 2017 © UCLES 2017 Page 14 of 18 Question Answer Marks Notes 3(c) Level 5 (11–12 marks) Very good response Clear, credible and well supported points about which reasoning works better. Coherent, structured evaluation of both arguments with clear comparison. The response is likely to contain three (or more) developed evaluative points, and may include some undeveloped points. A clear judgement is reached. Level 4 (8–10 marks) Strong response Clear, supported points about which reasoning works better. Evaluation of how well the reasoning works for both arguments with comparison. The response is likely to contain two (or more) developed evaluative points and may include some undeveloped points. A wide range (four or more) of undeveloped but clearly appropriate points may be sufficient to enter this band at the lower level. A judgement is reached. Level 3 (5–7 marks) Reasonable response Reasonable points about which reasoning works better. Some evaluation of how well the reasoning works for one or both arguments with an attempt at comparison. Judgements and evaluative points are likely to be partially supported or asserted. One (or more) developed evaluative point(s), possibly with some undeveloped points; a range (three or more) of undeveloped points may be sufficient to enter this band at the lower level. An attempt is made to give an overall judgement.

Mark scheme, page 15

0457/32 Cambridge IGCSE – Mark Scheme PUBLISHED May/June 2017 © UCLES 2017 Page 15 of 18 Question Answer Marks Notes 3(c) Level 2 (3–4 marks) Basic response Basic points about which reasoning works better. There may be only one argument considered in any detail, with little attempt at comparison. Judgements and evaluative points are likely to be partially supported and lack clarity/relevance at times. The response is likely to contain two (or more) undeveloped points. A basic judgement may be reached. Level 1 (1–2 marks) Limited response Limited and unsupported points about which reasoning works better. The response is likely to consider the arguments briefly and/or tangentially. There is little clarity. Answers at this level may repeat source material with little understanding or simply agree/disagree with the arguments presented. The response may not contain any clear evaluative points. Source material copied or recycled without development/explanation at the lower point in the range. Level 0 (0 marks) No relevant response or creditworthy material

Mark scheme, page 16

0457/32 Cambridge IGCSE – Mark Scheme PUBLISHED May/June 2017 © UCLES 2017 Page 16 of 18 Question Answer Marks Notes 4 Indicative content Candidates are expected to argue using reasons and evidence to justify their opinion and judgement about the issue i.e. to compare and assess the effectiveness of different forms of action to reduce inequality in world trade. Candidates are expected to use and develop the material found in the sources, but should go beyond simply repeating or recycling without adaptation. Other material may be introduced but it is not necessary to gain full marks. Candidates are likely to consider the following arguments: • reference to scale of impact on individual/group/governmental behaviour/actions • how long it takes to make a difference • the effects of cultural differences and beliefs • barriers to change • the power of collective action • the difficulties of changing individual behaviour • the influence of individuals and groups acting locally • the role of vested interests and power differences • potential conflict • difficulties in coordinating globally and across different countries with independence • cost and access to resources to implement change • governmental responses and action • other reasonable response 18 Further Guidance (a) The second set of bullet points in the question are to guide candidates and do not have to be specifically addressed to gain full marks.
