Writing a balanced, two-sided answer to Question 19, when the command word 'make a case in support of this statement' asks for one side only.

回避方法: Give explicit weight to both sides of the issue, then close with a reasoned judgement that weighs them against each other. - 3high影響する配点: 3Section B
Answering Section B source questions from memory, with no reference to what the provided stimulus actually says.
回避方法: Open your answer by pointing to a specific detail in the source, then build your explanation outward from it. - 4high影響する配点: 4Section C extended writing
