Explain the difference between a convincing response and a perceptive one in AS91480, using the standard's own wording.
Explain, with reasons, why correctly identifying what a visual convention means rarely earns Merit or above.
Respond critically to the view that a student who states the limits of their own reading is admitting weakness rather than demonstrating sophistication.
