Make requests and suggestions politely

English B SL practice for modal verbs, softeners, and politeness.

Paper 1 6 marks Difficulty 3

Make requests and suggestions politely: human ingenuity

English B SL language acquisition practice. This original stimulus is linked to the theme of human ingenuity and the context of a community library promoting a coding workshop. A student is planning a Paper 1 written response for teenagers and parents. What should they choose so text type, register, message, organization, and language choices match the task? Select the task focus, source clue, language choice, and communication judgement. Then answer in your own words: what should the student do next to strengthen this English B SL response? AI will analyse your communication, source use, language accuracy, register, task fulfilment, and expression.

Worked practice: build the response

Work through the communicative task in order: task focus, source clue, language choice, then how well it communicates.
