English A exam practice: Analyse guiding questions and authorial purpose

A travel article about a changing city is paired with the guiding question: How does the writer shape the audience's response to change? Choose the best analytical focus before planning the response. Enter the analytical focus, evidence choice, and technique choice, then choose the interpretation that best explains the reader or audience effect.

Worked practice: build the analysis

Construct the analysis one move at a time, the way an examiner reads it: focus, evidence, technique, then effect.
