No I believe you're right. Text 1 and 2 for Q1 (Creativity and Boat), Text 3 for Q2 (Storytelling), Text 4 for Q3 (Laughter), and Text 5 for Q4 (Place and Identity) :O

nah i think for standard the boat one was text 3/4 but for advanced it was 1/2
Can confirm it was text 3/4 for me in standard.
We were allowed to. It would've been hard to do the unseen while flipping to the back of the booklet.

You should've been allowed to.
Yeah, the supervisors said that we were allowed to, but i was curious as to why other school didn't/weren't allowed to
they weren't sure so they didn't let us, but they made us rip it off after the exam...

Was it stapled in a wonky way?
Yeah, basically they used 1 staple for all five papers, so it was hard to turn over each paper since they were connected in the one corner

IS IT TRUE THAT YOU COULDNT USE VISUAL TECHNIQUES FOR THE FIRST SHORT ANSWERS QUESTION

I doubt it, that seems rediculous since it is a visual text. I remember it contained something like "structural features" or smth that can semi-apply to visual stuff. Also there are "visual language techniques" (wanky, I know) so that might work as well.
Overall no point stressing now. Head up, and lets kill paper 2!
I do standard and had this question, not sure if it's in advance. I believe it was question 1 or 2 for us
No, it is part of form

bruh it was an image your only option is to talk about visual techniques
what I did was separate "language forms and features" into "language forms" for the text, and "(visual) features" for the image, seems dodgy but I didn't know how else to interpret the q

Generally short answers provide a wide spectrum of ways to approach them, so i don't there was a specific approach to the question. Don't stress it if you're answer is different to someone else's - if it makes sense then you'll be fine. Head up and good luck for Paper 2!
