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 2019 series for most Cambridge IGCSE™, Cambridge International A and AS Level and Cambridge Pre-U components, and some Cambridge O Level components.

0471/13 Cambridge IGCSE – Mark Scheme PUBLISHED May/June 2019 © UCLES 2019 Page 2 of 10 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.

Level 2 (3–4 marks) can be awarded for an explanation of the social and cultural impacts, clearly indicating how this affects the locals/pilgrims. Level 3 (5–6 marks) can be awarded for discussion of the significance/importance of a particular social and cultural impacts. Better answers may have a reasoned conclusion. Tourists may not respect the local religious practices and act or dress inappropriately [L1] causing conflict and resentment towards the tourists [L2]. They may no longer want to open the attraction/site for tourists limiting what is available [L3]. There may also be an increase in crime in the area for example pickpocketing which is common when there are large numbers of tourists [L1]. This may increase the costs for the attraction/site/destination as they need to employ security guards [L2]. Overall there are many benefits to tourism but there are also negative impacts that need to be carefully managed in order to prevent resentment and further conflict between the host populations and the tourists [L3]. 6

Level 2 (3–4 marks) can be awarded for an explanation of the negative impact, clearly indicating how this affects the locals/economy. Level 3 (5–6 marks) can be awarded for discussion of the significance/importance of the negative impact. Better answers may have a reasoned conclusion. Tourism employment is often seasonal [L1] workers have no wage in the low season and may not be guaranteed a contract for the next season [L2]. This causes poverty and an unstable economy [L3]. If foreign workers are brought into the destination to staff attractions and resorts this causes export leakage [L1] when they take their wages back home preventing the circulation of the money in the destination’s economy [L2]. Governments can set laws and regulations and help to educate/train tourism organisations in regard to their tourism employment so that the country benefits as much as possible [L3]. 6

Indicative content: Flexibility/freedom/own schedule Independence in moving around Package – no further research/purchasing Increased privacy Easier – no need to search for car hire on arrival Credit all valid responses in context. Level 1 (1–2 marks) will identify up to two valid reasons for the appeal, providing some detail but will be mainly descriptive. Level 2 (3–4 marks) can be awarded for an explanation of the appeal of fly-drive package holidays. Level 3 (5–6 marks) can be awarded for discussion of the significance/importance of the appeal. Better answers may have a reasoned conclusion. Fly-drive holidays provide tourists with complete flexibility [L1] they are able to travel as and when they want rather than relying on tour operators and public transport [L2]. Fly-drive holidays also provide more privacy for tourists [L1], they can travel in their own transport rather than sharing with locals or other tourists [L2]. Fly-drive holidays have many advantages and the appeal will depend upon tourists' requirements and preferences [L3]. 6
