Compare how writers frame the same event - Online practice 2

Read the information, then answer the questions. An adult may read the instructions aloud. Show your working where asked.

Read before answering

Two original accounts of a restored building. A: 'At last the hall's doors opened again, bright with invitations.' B: 'The hall's familiar hush was swallowed by the new programme.' Both select details of the same change but may value it differently. Compare evidence from both; do not invent numerical impacts or treat an interpretation as a survey of every reader.
