2001 HSC Notes from the Examination Centre Classical Greek 2001 NOTES FROM THE EXAMINATION CENTRE CLASSICAL GREEK Introduction This document has been produced for the teachers and candidates of the Stage 6 courses in Classical Greek. It provides comments with regard to responses to the 2001 Higher School Certificate Examination, indicating the quality of candidate responses, and highlighting the relative strengths and weaknesses of the candidature in each section and each question. It is essential for this document to be read in conjunction with the relevant syllabus, the 2001 Higher School Certificate Examination and other support documents, which have been developed by the Board of Studies to assist in the teaching and learning of Classical Greek. The marking guidelines, developed by the Examination Committee at the time of setting the Higher School Certificate Examination and used at the marking centre, are available on the Board of Studies website. Continuers Section I Prescribed Text Plato, Republic Book I Specific Comments Question 1 (a) (b) Candidates generally translated the passage well. Candidates generally translated the passage well. Question 2 (a) (b) (c) (d) All candidates answered the question correctly. Some candidates did not bring out the idea of a counter argument to Socrates. Most candidates analysed the argument, giving perceptive implications. All candidates made links to the rest of Republic Book I s discussion on justice. Some candidates conveyed outstanding knowledge of the discussion of justice. Some candidates provided disproportionately long answers for 3 and 4 mark questions. 5

2001 HSC Notes from the Examination Centre Classical Greek Question 3 (a) (b) Most candidates attempted this question. Most candidates discussed the mode of argument well, but a number resorted to narrative elements of the text without linking their information clearly to the question and especially the idea of easier. A few candidates discussed Socratic irony and the sophistic perspective. Candidates generally found change in direction of the argument hard to explain. A number of candidates used narrative elements of the text without relating their information clearly to the question. Most candidates expanded very well on the idea contained in the quotation relating to harm. Section II Prescribed Text, Euripides, Medea Question 4 (a) (b) Candidates generally translated the passage well. This passage proved more challenging for translation than Question 4(a). Question 5 (a) (b) (c) (d) Candidates gave a variety of answers, all of which were correct. Candidates described Medea s jealousy well and in a variety of ways eg. desire for revenge, being a woman scorned. Most candidates answered this part well. Some candidates did not analyse the simile/metaphor in context, sometimes just translating a phrase. Candidates provided a variety of competent approaches. A few mentioned Europides graphic depiction. Most candidates focused on the family relationship and its implications. Some candidates provided disproportionately long answers for the 3 and 4 mark questions. Question 6 (a) (b) Most candidates attempted this question. Better responses considered both sides of the question. Most candidates formed perceptive conclusions as to which characteristics in Medea were the more pronounced. A few candidates did not consider that Medea could be viewed as sympathetic in any way. Candidates considered each opposition, man/woman, Greek/barbarian separately in the discussion. Candidates found the concept of opposition difficult to define and analyse. 6

2001 HSC Notes from the Examination Centre Classical Greek Section III Unseen Texts Question 7 (a) (b) Most candidates identified and rendered the content and style well, and all produced a clear English translation. All candidates identified the basic context well. Extension Section I Prescribed Text Homer, Odyssey VI and VII Question 1 (a) (i) Most candidates translated the passage very well. (ii) Candidates generally answered the questions comprehensively. Some candidates did not put the mist into context. (iii) Candidates analyses were generally clear and thorough. A few candidates mentioned Odysseus prayer. (b) (i) Most candidates translated the passage very well. (ii) Candidates gave the context clearly. (iii) Most candidates evaluated the simile perceptively. A few candidates did not relate the implications back to Odysseus clearly. Question 2 (a) (b) Serious and light-hearted elements were treated independently, rather than as an interplay. Candidates generally did not bring out the contrast of Nausicaa s girlishness with Odysseus serious behaviour. Most candidates attempted this part and generally addressed the question well. Stages of Odysseus return were clearly described. Few candidates considered the balance of Odyssey VII (the portion of the set text not translated) thoroughly. 7

2001 HSC Notes from the Examination Centre Classical Greek Section II Non-prescribed Text Question 3 The passage was translated very well and the context was identified clearly. Question 4 Generally candidates translated the prose thoroughly. Some candidates did not use the correct vocabulary/constructions in a few instances. Challenging elements included: such as Cephalus, mind was at peace with itself, youth. 8
