Component 2 - Literature - Purple Book There will be short questions on the 6 sources prescribed by the exam board, as well as some factual recall of what life is like in the countryside for Romans. Following this, you will then have some translation questions on the set texts we have learnt so far. You will need to know the text well, its meaning and be able to answer questions on it. There is one 16 mark essay question to answer on the theme of Romans in the Countryside, which you can bring your knowledge of the 6 source images into, as well as the evidence from Cicero's speech. Use the class powerpoints from the class updates page on this website, and also the component 2 page for resources, as well as your purple exercise book. Click here for the Component 2 Resources. 3. Component 3 - Civilisation - Yellow Book You will have short questions to answer testing your knowledge on the topics we have covered so far in lessons. There is no Latin language on this exam - all questions and answers will be in English. You will also have longer questions to answer (worth 4-6 marks) on the source material we have covered and what you can infer from them. Make sure you explain in full what they show us and what we can learn about the Romans from them. Finally, there is one 12 mark essay question bringing together all of your knowledge of what daily life is like for the Romans. In this question you should bring in your factual knowledge of the topics, the source material we have studied and any other relevant information you can explain to answer the question.
