UNIVERSITY OF CAMBRIDGE INTERNATIONAL EXAMINATIONS International General Certificate of Secondary Education MARK SCHEME for the October/November 2009 question paper for the guidance of teachers 0545 INDONESIAN (FOREIGN LANGUAGE) 0545/04 Paper 4 (Continuous Writing), maximum raw mark 50 This mark scheme is published as an aid to teachers and candidates, to indicate the requirements of the examination. 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 must be read in conjunction with the question papers and the report on the examination. • CIE will not enter into discussions or correspondence in connection with these mark schemes. CIE is publishing the mark schemes for the October/November 2009 question papers for most IGCSE, GCE Advanced Level and Advanced Subsidiary Level syllabuses and some Ordinary Level syllabuses. www.XtremePapers.com

Page 2 Mark Scheme: Teachers’ version Syllabus Paper IGCSE – October/November 2009 0545 04 © UCLES 2009 Total marks for paper: 50 25 marks per question. Each question is marked over a maximum of 140 words. 1 Communication: 5 marks These marks are given for unambiguously communicated points of information as required by the rubric. 2 Language: 15 marks Ticks are awarded beside each Marking Unit which is substantially correct. Errors are not indicated. The total number of ticks is recorded at the foot of the page and converted to a mark out of 15 (see the conversion table on Page 8). 3 General Impression: 5 marks This mark takes the language mark as the first guide. It rewards attempts at interesting, idiomatic and ambitious use of language. It takes into account near misses or minor spelling errors not rewarded by the language mark and, conversely, it redresses the balance where weak expressions or repetition have been rewarded by the language mark (see table below). 0–1 Does not rise above the requirements for the Directed Writing Task in Paper 2 2 Fairly good use of idiom, vocabulary and structures. 3 Good use of the above. Generally accurate. 4 Very good use of the above. 5 Excellent use of the above. Recording of marks Marks are recorded at the end of the answer as follows: Communication + Language + General Impression = Total E.g. 4/5 + 10/15 + 3/5 = 17/25 Each mark (out of 25) is entered on the front of the script and the total out of 50 recorded.

Page 3 Mark Scheme: Teachers’ version Syllabus Paper IGCSE – October/November 2009 0545 04 © UCLES 2009 Counting words (a) In letters, any address, date or invented titles are ignored. (b) The numbers of words is counted up to exactly 140 words – (or the nearest Marking Unit if just over) – this tally is indicated by | | . No marks are awarded thereafter either for communication or language. (c) A word is here defined as a group of letters surrounded by a space. Groups of letters containing hyphens are regarded as one word. E.g. anak-anak, huru-hara, berjalan-jalan: each example is one word. (d) Numbers count as one word whether written as figures or as words. 21 is one word. Dua puluh satu is treated as one word. Repetition of material printed in the rubric No accuracy marks are given for sentences/phrases of 3 words or more copied from the rubric. Irrelevant material In the (rare) case of a deliberately evasive answer which consists almost entirely of irrelevant material in defiance of the rubric a score of 0/25 is given. The genuine attempt to answer the question which fails due to a misunderstanding of the rubric will normally lose communication marks but will score for accuracy and quality of language. When part of an answer is clearly irrelevant it is included in the word count but bracketed and not awarded any accuracy marks.

Page 4 Mark Scheme: Teachers’ version Syllabus Paper IGCSE – October/November 2009 0545 04 © UCLES 2009 MARKS FOR LANGUAGE General comments This positive marking scheme is intended to reward both accuracy and ambition. No marks are deducted for errors. Marking units A tick is awarded for a correct Marking Unit of which each element is correct. A spelling error will invalidate a Marking Unit. A Marking Unit may consist of any of the following: 1 Verbs (a) The simple root form of the verb is acceptable in most cases. Saya menulis surat = 1. Saya tulis surat = 1. Dia menelepon dan beritahu = 2, (two verbs using the same noun/pronoun). (b) Credit is given for correct use of modal or auxiliary verbs. Saya harus bangun = 2. Mereka ingin makan = 2. Kita boleh pakai = 2. (and, similarly with: mau, senang, biasa, etc) (c) Credit is given for correct use of affixes. Saya membangunkan = 2 (adiknya = 1). Ibu membelikan = 2 (saya baju = 0). Pencuri (1) dipukuli (3) = 4. Ikan itu dimasak = 2. Kampung terletak = 2. Banyak orang terkena (2) penyakit (1) = 3. 2A Nouns & Pronouns (a) On their own these don’t score (unless formed using affix/affixes). No score also for nouns with: ini, itu, banyak, sedikit, with numbers or ‘nya’ (unless clearly a possessive). Masalah ini = 0. Banyak negara = 0. Dua alasan = 0. Permasalahannya = 2 (b) However, nouns used with their correct count noun do score. Seorang pencuri = 2. Sebuah patung = 1. Sepuluh helai kertas = 1. (c) NB (as mentioned above) a spelling error invalidates the MU. Pesawet terbang mendarat = 0. Makan saya = 0, (meaning makanan saya). (d) Misspelling of proper nouns in the case of a person’s name or a town or place is tolerated. Common countries should be correctly spelt, however both Singapore and Singapura are accepted. Old spellings for Indonesian towns are allowed: Dengan Ibrihim = 1; Ke Jogja = 1; but Di Ingris = 0. (e) Noun + pun = 1 mark. Rumah pun (1) dia tidak (1) punya (1). (f) Bukan + noun = 1 mark. Bukan teman = 1.

Page 5 Mark Scheme: Teachers’ version Syllabus Paper IGCSE – October/November 2009 0545 04 © UCLES 2009 2B Noun phrases 1 mark is given to nouns which are formed by adding affixes to a verb, an adjective or another noun, regardless of how many affixes (prefixes and/or suffixes: ke-an; pe-an; -an; pe-). Surat lamaran (1) = 1 (from verb lamar) Dia pembeli (1) = 1 (from verb beli) Kakak saya (1) pengiklan (1) = 2 (from noun iklan; saya is a possessive pronoun, hence = 1 mark) Di (1) perumahan (1) itu = 2 (from noun rumah; di is a preposition, hence = 1 mark) Perbaikan (1) jalan = 1 (from adjective baik) Di mana (1) keadilan (1)? = 2 (from adjective adil; di is a preposition, hence = 1 mark) 1 mark is also given to a noun which describes another noun or other nouns. If there are 3 nouns in a row, then only the last noun gets 1 mark. Uang saku (1) = 1 Ibu guru (1) = 1 Penjual (1) sayur (1) = 2 Penjual (1) sayur-sayuran (1) = 2 Pekerjaan (1) rumah (1) = 2 Pekerjaan (1) rumah (1) saya (1) = 3 (saya is a possessive pronoun, hence = 1 mark) Pintu gerbang (1) = 1 Pintu gerbang sekolah (1) = 1 Kain sarung (1) = 1 Kain sarung (1) ibu (1) = 2 (ibu is a possessive pronoun, hence = 1 mark) Kain sarung batik (1) = 1 Kain sarung batik (1) ibu (1) = 2 2C Noun or pronoun + verb Extra marks are given for the use of the negative, interrogative and suffixes –lah,–kah. Kami mengharap = 1. tulislah = 2. Dia tidak yakin = 2. Apakah orang-orang Jawa datang? = 3. 2D Noun or pronoun + adjective or adjectival phrase Dia besar = 1. Mereka marah = 1. Dia anak yang pintar = 2. Urusan lain = 2. A mark is given for the possessive adjective and use of ‘nya’ in the possessive. Ibu saya = 1. Mobil paman saya = 1. Mobilnya = 1. Paman mobil saya = 0. 2E Noun or pronoun + preposition or prepositional phrase Uang di dalam = 1 Uangmu (1) di dalam (1). Di depan toko itu = 1. Ke Jakarta = 1 Untuk orang ini = 1.

Comparatives and superlatives: Rumah itu lebih besar (2) daripada (1). Kapal ini sama besar (2) dengan (1). Dia sebesar (2) saya. Dia anak yang (1) paling (1) pintar (1). Telepon umum yang (2) terdekat (2). (b) Groups of adjectives in descriptive writing also count: Kami capai, lapar dan haus = 3. 4A Adverbs All adverbs (except sekali and sangat) and adverbial phrases of time/frequency Dia besar sekali = 1. Dia terlalu (2) besar (1) = 3. Kita belum (1) menyadari (2) = 3. Orang datang (1) setiap minggu (1) = 2. And, similarly, 1 mark for: sudah, hampir, sedang, masih, akan, etc. and phrases of time e.g. besok, besok pagi, biasanya, tahun lalu, sebelum itu. But no marks are awarded for the time phrase and Marking Unit where confusion is caused by wrong use of time markers, e.g. Tahun lalu kami akan berangkat = 0. 4B Interrogative adverbs Score 1 tick separately: Bagaimana? Berapa? Di mana? Kapan? Mengapa? Siapa? Each scores 1. 5 Conjunctions (except dan, atau and tetapi) Karena = 1. Dia tahu (1) bahwa (1). Untuk = 1 And, similarly, 1 mark for: juga, kalau, namun, walaupun, etc. 6 Slang (a) The aim is for ‘Bahasa Indonesia yang baik dan benar’. While shortened versions of most verbs are acceptable these should not become slangy. E.g. Kami ingin is fine but kami kepingin or kami pingin are informal and inappropriate. (b) The fashion (?) of adding ‘in’ is not formally acceptable. Eg Saya udah bantuin dia. (Similarly dropping of letters – udah for sudah.) (c) While tidak is formal, tak is common in printed form and acceptable; enggak, however is informal and only acceptable within speech marks. (d) Jakarta slang is not (yet) standard Indonesian and not acceptable. E.g.: gue, lu, ape (for: apa), dong, gimana (for bagaimana) etc.

Page 7 Mark Scheme: Teachers’ version Syllabus Paper IGCSE – October/November 2009 0545 04 © UCLES 2009 7 Miscellaneous Ada + noun or pronoun = 1 Ada banyak rumah = 1. Tidak (1) ada waktu (1).

Examples: Di Australia (1) ada rumah-rumah (1) yang kecil (1) (preposition) (ada + noun) (adj. phrase) Ada mobil, truk, bemo, sepeda motor dan lain-lain = 1 (Giving one mark only for an illustrative list seems harsh, but can be redressed in the impression mark). 8 Expressions With experience, more will doubtless be added to the following list. Credit would be appropriate, for example, for: Demikianlah ceritanya = 3. Sekian dan terima kasih = 1. 9 English borrowings Only English (or other foreign borrowings) are acceptable if clearly understandable to a ‘native Indonesian speaker with no knowledge of languages other than Indonesian’. E.g. marketing, bisnis (but not ‘business’), target, industri (but not ‘industry’) etc. 10 Register Kamu, kau etc are not acceptable in a formal letter but Anda is accepted in an informal letter. Glaringly inappropriate register is disallowed. For learned phrases of formality in a letter: Kepada Bapak yang terhormat = 3. Dengan surat ini kami ingin menyampaikan = 4. For learned phrases in an informal letter: Semoga kamu baik-baik = 2. Bagaimana kabar? and Apa kabar? Each score 1. 11 Hyphens and punctuation Inaccuracies in the use of hyphens and punctuation are ignored.
