Observation

This was not a popular question. Most candidates who answered this question failed to give detailed character analysis of the charcters.

The required answers should include:

• Statement of the central theme.
• Attitudes of Tony and the corresponding reaction from Mr and Mrs Hardcastle.
• Mrs Hardcastles greed and her plans to inherit Constance’s jewel.
• Tony is stubborn and rebellious.
• Tony’s pranks on Mr Hardcastle.
• The significance of Tony, Mr Hardcastle and Mrs Hardcastle on the development of the plot.

Candidates’ performance in this question was fair.
