CAMBRIDGE INTERNATIONAL EXAMINATIONS International General Certificate of Secondary Education MARK SCHEME for the May/June 2013 series 0518 FIRST LANGUAGE THAI 0518/02 Paper 2 (Reading and Directed Writing), maximum raw mark 60 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 should be read in conjunction with the question paper and the Principal Examiner Report for Teachers. Cambridge will not enter into discussions about these mark schemes. Cambridge is publishing the mark schemes for the May/June 2013 series for most IGCSE, GCE Advanced Level and Advanced Subsidiary Level components and some Ordinary Level components. www.XtremePapers.com

Page 2 Mark Scheme Syllabus Paper IGCSE – May/June 2013 0518 02 © Cambridge International Examinations 2013 Part 1: Question 1  (Summary from both texts) Content and organisation: 15 Summary style: 5 Candidates need to write using their own language. Marks are awarded for content which is put together coherently. Refer to the mark bands. Copying whole chunks cannot be rewarded. Below is an indication of what information the candidates could include. Content: (15 points) The points below do not have to be in this order, as long as the answer is coherent and well- organised.

Page 3 Mark Scheme Syllabus Paper IGCSE – May/June 2013 0518 02 © Cambridge International Examinations 2013 Band 1—13–15 A very clear and precise summary Candidates make use of material efficiently and effectively, choosing relevant information accordingly—no detailed information or irrelevant information, or only a very small fraction which does not interfere the summary. The text is clear and logical. Candidates do not put their opinion or view points. They understand well what is necessary for a summary. Band 2—10–12 A substantial summary The candidate is competent, using what is relevant. The passage has clear direction with relevant information. However, they might include some detailed information which is not relevant. And as a result, the summary has some parts which might not read well. But overall, candidates have shown competent summary skills. Band 3—7–9 A weak summary Candidates find it difficult to select relevant information. The article is appealing, but the tone of the language used might not be consistent. Emotions or facts may be exaggerated or didactic. As a result, the summary is not quite convincing. It either reads like a narrative or an essay, in which candidates put their opinions or points of view. Some information has been lifted directly from the text. Band 4—4–6 A very weak summary Candidates do not use the necessary information for the task the result may be unconvincing and/or too emotional, although there is evidence that there is an attempt to convince the reader. Alternatively it reads like a narrative or they use language in a didactic way, or a lot of information is lifted from the original texts. Band 5—1–3 Limited and plain—hardly competent summary Candidates do not know how to select information—lots of irrelevant information or lots of opinions and facts from candidates themselves. Also, they do not make good use of emotive language. A rather weak article and not at all convincing. Alternatively most of the task is lifted from the texts without using their own language.

Page 4 Mark Scheme Syllabus Paper IGCSE – May/June 2013 0518 02 © Cambridge International Examinations 2013 Summary style (Conciseness, focus, use of own words and spelling) (5 Marks): 5 Excellent, effective summary style throughout, focused. Structures and words are well-chosen and appropriate, use of own words throughout, spelling is excellent. Detail or unnecessary information is not included. 4 Generally good, effective summary style, concise and well-focused, using own words, spellings are very good. Details or unnecessary information are rare. 3 Satisfactory, concise, although occasionally not consistent, reasonably focused and very occasional lifting from the texts, spellings are usually accurate although errors do occur. May contain unnecessary information. 2 Not very concise, tendency to lose focus, although the passage has been understood, fair chunk of lifting, numerous spelling mistakes. 1 Wrong genres: descriptive or discursive style with lots of their own opinions and information, frequently unfocused, evidence of lifting is seen throughout, lots of spelling mistakes when trying to use own words.

Page 5 Mark Scheme Syllabus Paper IGCSE – May/June 2013 0518 02 © Cambridge International Examinations 2013 Part 1: Question 2 Content and organisation: 15 Written expression: 5 Your school has organised an event about nature conservation: 'The Value of Wildlife and Forest', in order to promote the importance of Forest and Wildlife conservation in Thailand. You are one of the students organising the event. Write a leaflet introducing Mr Seub Nakasathien to your friends. Content (15 marks) • The importance of the Forest and Wildlife Conservation. • Mr Seub Nakasathien—the conservationist who sacrificed his life for the forest and wildlife. • Biography • Inspiration • Achievements • Examples of his work e.g. how he saved wildlife etc. • Persuasion—To persuade and convince the reader. Band 1—13–15 A confident and persuasive article—a success Candidates make use of material efficiently and effectively. Facts and opinions are combined well, which appeals to the reader. Factual language and emotive language are suitable and blend in nicely, not didactic. Very convincing and the reader sees the importance of promoting this issue. Band 2—10–12 Material and ideas integrated well—persuasive Candidate is competent, using what is relevant. The article is interesting and developed with a good sense of direction, appealing to the reader, though they might not be able to pick up all the information that is needed. The reader feels that what is said is valid and makes sense. Band 3—7–9 Substantial piece of work Candidates make good use of material, though information and ideas may be repeated. The article is appealing, but the tone of the language might not be consistent. Either emotions or facts may be exaggerated or didactic. As a result, the writing is not quite convincing. Band 4—4–6 Not quite balanced—not persuasive Candidates do not use the necessary information for the article and the result be unconvincing and/or too emotional, although there is evidence that there is an attempt to convince the reader. Or they use language to the point that it can be didactic. Band 5—1–3 Limited and plain—hardly competent and not persuasive Candidates do not know how to select information—lots of irrelevant information or lots of opinions and facts from candidates themselves. Also, they do not make good use of emotive language. A rather weak article and not at all convincing.
