Examiners report
As with the first part of this question, many candidates were awarded full marks as they offered two valid points in response to what the visual source revealed. For example, for 9b) that the foreign policies of Italy and Germany were similar and that these were aggressive. In 13b) many candidates suggested that the cartoon revealed that the struggle for civil rights faced violence and that law enforcement took part in brutal attacks. However, some candidates offered just one overall point.
