This mark scheme is published to support teachers and students and should be read together with the question paper. It shows the requirements of the exam. The answer column of the mark scheme shows the proposed basis on which Examiners would award marks for this exam. Where appropriate, this column also provides the most likely acceptable alternative responses expected from students. Examiners usually review the mark scheme after they have seen student responses and update the mark scheme if appropriate. In the June series, Examiners were unable to consider the acceptability of alternative responses, as there were no student responses to consider. Mark schemes should usually be read together with the Principal Examiner Report for Teachers. However, because students did not sit exam papers, there is no Principal Examiner Report for Teachers for the June 2020 series. Cambridge International will not enter into discussions about these mark schemes. Cambridge International is publishing the mark schemes for the June 2020 series for most Cambridge IGCSE™ and Cambridge International A & AS Level components, and some Cambridge O Level components.

0488/13 Cambridge IGCSE – Mark Scheme PUBLISHED May/June 2020 © UCLES 2020 Page 2 of 19 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.

0488/13 Cambridge IGCSE – Mark Scheme PUBLISHED May/June 2020 © UCLES 2020 Page 5 of 19 RUBRIC INFRINGEMENTS Beware of rubric infringements: usually failure to cover three books, or NO STARRED QUESTION (easily missed). An answer that infringes the rubric scores one-fifth of the mark it would otherwise gain. THIS PENALTY IS APPLIED NOT TO THE LOWEST-SCORING ANSWER ON THE PAPER, BUT TO THE ANSWER THAT IS INFRINGING THE RUBRIC. See the following examples: 1 Candidate answers a starred question on Almudena Grandes and scores 12; an essay question on Almudena Grandes and scores 15; an essay question on Quevedo and scores 12. The Quevedo question must stand, and so must the Almudena Grandes starred question, because candidates are required to answer a starred question. Therefore, the essay question on Almudena Grandes is the one that must be penalised. 2 Candidate answers two essay questions on Almudena Grandes scoring 13 and 14, and a starred question on Quevedo, scoring 10. The Quevedo answer must stand, because it is the required starred question. But either of the two Almudena Grandes questions could be reckoned as the offender, and so it is right here to penalise the lower-scoring of the two essays. 3 Candidate answers three essay questions, on Almudena Grandes, Quevedo and Lorca, but no starred question. Here you simply penalise the lowest-scoring of the three answers. 4 Candidate answers three essay questions and covers only two books. In theory, candidate has therefore incurred a double rubric infringement, but normally we would penalise only one answer. This is a rare occurrence; if you come across it, and feel uneasy about how to treat it, please contact the Principal Examiner. 5 Candidate answers only two questions, on two different books, but not including a starred question. THIS IS NOT A RUBRIC INFRINGEMENT. We assume that the missing third question would have fulfilled the rubric. Both answers score their full mark. 6 Candidate answers too many questions. THIS IS NOT A RUBRIC INFRINGEMENT – just self-penalising. Mark all the answers (they will normally be very short) and take the three answers that jointly produce the highest possible score while obeying the rubric.

0488/13 Cambridge IGCSE – Mark Scheme PUBLISHED May/June 2020 © UCLES 2020 Page 6 of 19 Question Answer Marks Indicative Content Questions are open to interpretation and, therefore, the following notes are not intended to be prescriptive but to give an indication of some of the points that could be made in response to each question. They are by no means exhaustive. Grandes, El lector de Julio Verne 1* Vuelva a leer el final una parte de la tercera sección de la parte II 1948 desde ‘Rodeé la casa para estudiar la fachada’ (página 250 Colección Andanzas) hasta ‘que como se enteren arriba de que he bajado a verte, me fusilan’ (página 253). ¿Cómo se las arregla Grandes aquí para crear una escena emocionante? No olvide referirse detalladamente al extracto. Candidates may refer to: • the way Nino enters the house and finds he is unable to leave • his discovery that Filo is expecting someone • the mysterious objects that surround him as he spies on Filo • the suspense created around the clandestine meeting and the eventual revelation of the mysterious visitor’s identity Answers will be differentiated according to the amount of relevant detail taken from the entire range of the passage and an appreciation of what makes this passage exciting. This is the first time we learn of Filo’s relationship with the infamous Cencerro (Elias), who is wanted by the Guardia Civil. The impact and significance of Nino’s discovery will be evident in the better response. 20 Question Answer Marks 2 ‘En mi pueblo, y más que los olivos, se cultivaban las traiciones, las delaciones, el miedo y los fusiles. Vivíamos en el centro de una guerra que no iba a acabar nunca’ (La primera sección de la parte I 1947 página 127 Colección Andanzas) ¿Cómo reacciona usted ante la forma en que la gente del pueblo convive en este entorno? No olvide citar ejemplos del texto. Candidates may refer to: • how the villagers find ways to continue their lives and express their sentiments in creative ways such as hanging out black items of clothing on laundry day after the death of a ‘rojo’ • how they survive by carrying out ‘pleita’ to earn money or selling food on the black market • the way they risk their lives to help the rebels or denounce them to ensure their own family’s survival Differentiation will occur through the quality, relevance and range of the examples that candidates choose to illustrate their responses. 20

0488/13 Cambridge IGCSE – Mark Scheme PUBLISHED May/June 2020 © UCLES 2020 Page 7 of 19 Question Answer Marks 3 ‘Pepe me daba la espalda pero debía de estar hablando y no para defenderse, porque el guardia asentía con la cabeza y una expresión serena, los labios relajados, las manos en los bolsillos’ (La tercera sección de la parte I 1947 página 112 Colección Andanzas). Imagine y escriba la conversación entre Pepe el Portugués y Sanchís en este momento. Conteste con la voz de Pepe el Portugués y Sanchís. Candidates may refer to: • how Pepe and Sanchís are working together • how they are managing to keep their true relationship a secret • how they must be careful in front of Nino as he the son of a Civil Guard and they may not fully trust him with the responsibility of keeping such a dangerous secret • some idea of what the next step is for the resistance Differentiation will arise from the extent to which candidates understand the relationship between these two characters. Candidates can show a range of ideas in their conversations as long as there is evidence from the text to support them. Allowances will be made as two voices are required here, but candidates must be aware of the collusion between these two characters to reach the upper bands. 20

0488/13 Cambridge IGCSE – Mark Scheme PUBLISHED May/June 2020 © UCLES 2020 Page 8 of 19 Question Answer Marks Esquivel, Como agua para chocolate 4* Vuelva a leer el final del Capítulo IV ABRIL MOLE DE GUAJOLOTE CON ALMENDRA Y AJONJOLÍ desde ‘–¡Qué bien se ve este niño, al lado de una tía tan buena!’ (página 73 Debolsillo) hasta ‘la primera fiesta que gozaba en su vida’ (página 75). ¿Cómo se las arregla Esquivel para que compartamos los sentimientos que experimenta Tita aquí? No olvide referirse detalladamente al extracto. Candidates may refer to: • Tita’s happiness despite having just explained to John why she can never marry or have children of her own • Tita’s strong bond with Roberto and her reaction to the prospect of being separated from him • the effect on Tita of the guests’ kind words and compliments • the euphoria experienced by the guests • Mamá Elena’s determination to destroy her daughter’s happiness by catching out Tita and Pedro • Mamá Elena’s decision to hurt Tita profoundly by sending Pedro and his family to work in Texas • her cruelty in ensuring that Tita is within earshot when she announces this decision Differentiation will occur according to how well candidates understand the context and characters that appear here and the maliciousness of the decision to separate Tita from not only Pedro, but also Roberto. Candidates familiar with the relationship between these characters will understand the coldness with which Mamá Elena takes this opportunity to destroy any happiness Tita may feel. 20 5 La revolución impacta en la vida del rancho en varias ocasiones a lo largo de la novela. ¿Cómo se vale la autora de estos momentos para intensificar el interés del argumento? No olvide referirse detalladamente al texto. Responses may refer to: • the great impact the revolution has on Gertrudis’ life. • when Mamá Elena makes a stand against the revolutionaries and the role played by Captain Juan Alejandrez in preventing Mamá Elena from being killed during this encounter • the occasion when Mamá Elena falls foul of the revolutionaries and is attacked and left paralysed • Chencha’s rape at the hand of the rebels and her will to overcome it • happier occasions when Gertrudis visits with her troops • other examples such as increasing danger when travelling • Rosaura having to leave the ranch to give birth in case a doctor cannot come due to the fighting Differentiation will arise from the quality of the answer and the relevance in the detail given to support the candidate’s personal response. Candidates may also include minor details such as Chencha’s relationship with one of the revolutionaries who come to visit with Gertrudis and the increasing danger when travelling to town. 20

Entonces Rosaura comprendió que ella no tenía nada que hacer ahí, se metió en su recámara y se cerró con llave’ (Capítulo X OCTUBRE Torrejas de natas página 173 Debolsillo). Usted es Rosaura en este momento. ¿Qué está usted pensando? Conteste con la voz de Rosaura. Candidates may mention: • Rosaura’s intense jealousy of the love Pedro and Tita share • the hopelessness she feels upon realising that the marriage is over • her possible regret at accepting the marriage in the first place • her determination to run the ranch that her mother left her • some idea of how to assert herself as the owner of the ranch and to maintain her dignity despite the cuckolding Differentiation will arise from the extent to which the response is a true reflection of this character’s personality and reaction to the moment stated in the question. An ability to draw on knowledge of Rosaura from the rest of the novel will also be a contributing factor. Candidates may also convey a deep sense of pain and anger over Pedro’s rejection and her sense of utter humiliation at having been used by Pedro; perhaps resentment against Mamá Elena for having suggested the idea of the marriage in the first place. 20

0488/13 Cambridge IGCSE – Mark Scheme PUBLISHED May/June 2020 © UCLES 2020 Page 10 of 19 Question Answer Marks García Márquez, Crónica de una muerte aniunciada 7* Vuelva a leer una parte de la sección 3 desde ‘En realidad no se demoró más de diez minutos’ (página 73 Debolsillo) hasta ‘si era cierto que estaban esperando a Santiago Nasar para matarlo’ (página 75). ¿Cómo se las arregla García Márquez aquí para crear suspense ante el inminente asesinato de Santiago Nasar? No olvide referirse detalladamente al pasaje. Candidates may refer to: • how the brothers waste time and try to avoid having to kill their friend • the fact that, apart from Clotilde Armenta’s fruitless attempt to intoxicate the twins, no one else does anything to stop the murder because they either agree that Santiago should die, think he has already been murdered or consider it to be inevitable • how morbid interest makes the villagers enter the shop so they can watch the twins, yet do nothing to prevent the crime Answers will reflect the intrigue surrounding the events up to the murder; suspense is created by the words and actions not only of the twins but also of the other characters who appear. For example, the reaction of Pablo’s girlfriend, Prudencia, who wants her boyfriend to kill and defend his honour, contrasts with that of Clotilde Armenta who despairs at the machismo that forces men to kill their friends. 20 Question Answer Marks 8 Enigmática e inocente. Astuta y engañosa. En su opinión de lector, ¿cuál es la descripción más apta para Ángela Vicario y por qué? No olvide referirse detalladamente al texto. Candidates may: • argue in favour of one, or both descriptions • draw on evidence throughout the novel to support their view of which description is most apt • form a judgement about whether she was truthful or not when she named Santiago Nasar as the author of her dishonour Differentiation will occur according to the quality of the evidence used to support their response. Ángela is an enigmatic character but there is sufficient material to form a judgement regarding her role in the tragedy and whether she was lying about how she lost her honour. 20

No olvide referirse detalladamente al extracto. Candidates may refer to: • the sadness felt by the audience as the family have to sell off their possessions • everyone’s reaction to Anyula turning on the light as they rightly fear Nona will think it is breakfast time • Carmelo’s increasingly evident desperation in the face of Nona’s insatiable appetite • the way in which the characters understand Chicho’s intentions regarding the brazier • the tacit agreement of the family to burn Nona to death and the reluctance to be the one responsible by passing the brazier back and forth • the comical way in which Nona survives yet another attempt on her life by using the fire to cook more food Responses will be differentiated according to how detailed and wide ranging the emotions that the characters’ behaviour on stage appears to provoke in the audience. A sensitive appreciation of the different moods and tone of the passage, together with an awareness of audience reaction, will place a response in the upper bands. 20 Question Answer Marks 14 A lo largo de la obra, Chicho inventa muchas estrategias para evitar trabajar. De todas estas estrategias, ¿cuál es la más divertida y por qué? No olvide referirse detalladamente al texto. Candidates may refer to: • his ingenious schemes to avoid work at any cost by encouraging Carmelo and Marta to work harder • his insistence on being a composer as an excuse for not being able to hold down a job • his increasingly desperate plans for Nona such as to retire her, to prostitute her, to lose her, to marry her off and finally to kill her • his failure to achieve any of these goals Differentiation will arise from the extent to which candidates exploit the text for relevant examples. Better responses will evaluate how amusing Chicho’s ability is to think on his feet and come up with one hare-brained scheme after another, as well as persuade those around him that each idea is a good one. 20

0488/13 Cambridge IGCSE – Mark Scheme PUBLISHED May/June 2020 © UCLES 2020 Page 16 of 19 Question Answer Marks POETRY: GENERAL CONSIDERATIONS Since the criteria for a good poetry answer do not vary from year to year, it may be useful to have a permanent set of guidelines, incorporating points that will already be familiar to most examiners. Though not set in stone, they are unlikely to change: • The answer should be relevant to the question. Do not give much credit to candidates who have obviously chosen a particular poem because it’s the only one they know, and make no attempt to relate it to the question. • Autobiographical detail should not be credited unless a clear attempt has been made to relate it to the question (e.g. ‘Machado’s imagery invests the Castilian countryside with the melancholy he feels at the loss of Leonor, for example…’, not ‘Machado wrote this poem after losing his wife, who died after a long illness in…’). • Candidates are of course entitled to make use of ‘taught’ material, but it should not be given much credit unless the candidate clearly understands it and has related it to the question. • Decoding has to receive some credit (because it may demonstrate a degree of understanding, and otherwise a good many candidates would get no marks at all), but it needs to be sifted for any signs of true appreciation. • As a general rule, very short answers should not receive more than a mark of 9 unless they are quite outstandingly perceptive. • Sensitive attention to the words should always be generously rewarded – unless it’s totally irrelevant – whether or not the Examiner agrees with the candidate’s interpretation. However, a rigid, ‘taught’ interpretation that gets in the way of a personal response, rather than enhancing it, will limit the reward.

Candidates may refer to: • the way Belli uses the extended metaphor to express her thoughts and feeling • how the poet vividly creates the movements and behaviour of a cat to illustrate her own behaviour and actions • how she intertwines emotions with catlike references • the way in which she incorporates everyday activities giving them a poetic quality through the feline imagery she uses Answers will be differentiated according to the quality of the response in terms of illustration using the language of the poem and the extent to which the candidate has kept sight of the specific wording of the question. 20 Question Answer Marks 20 Aprecie cómo la poetisa comunica una noción original de la maternidad en UNO de los siguientes poemas: EL FETO (páginas 64–65 Colección Visor de Poesía) LA MADRE (página 104).
