Two yearsago, they were on a boat a few kilometres from the beach. Thomas asked Inger to marryhim and he gave her a gold ring. He wanted to put the ring on Inger’s finger, but hedropped it and it fell into the sea. They were sure the ring was lost for ever. That is, until last week, when Mr Carlsson visited them. He has a fish shop and he foundthe ring in a large fish which he was cutting up for one of his customers. The fish thoughtthe ring was something to eat! Mr Carlsson knew that the ring belonged to Thomas andInger because inside the ring there were some words. They were, ‘To Inger, All my love,Thomas’. And so Mr Carlsson gave the ring back to them. Inger now has two rings. When they lost the first one, Thomas bought Inger another one.But they think the one the fish ate is the best one.

However, the reader needs to interpret whatthe candidate means for the second content point, which room they like best. Because of this, thescript was awarded 3.

Thatall.fromyou best friendKen2 marks Commentary This answer only covers two of the content points, which room they like best and why. That thehouse is 'in Japan' is not a satisfactory answer to 'where the new house is' and the errors in spellingand grammar in the rest of the text are too extensive to justify 3 points. The candidate was thereforeawarded 2 marks.
