10. She scrutinised herself daily [1] and this shows how obsessed she is with her appearance.[1]
11. To look thin.
(ii) ‘skeletal’ (in line 30, “she had to look thin”, this does not show that she has ACCOMPLISHED thinness.)
12.The word ‘scarlet’ emphasizes the redness. [1] This in turn, emphasizes how embarrassed and ashamed of herself she is, to be unable to fit into the clothing her mother had picked out for her. [1]
13. oxymoron: “chirped” is a sound that birds make, and it indicates cheerfulness, but ‘cattily’ shows spitefulness. [1] It is effective because it shows that they are superficial friends/that her friends are superficial [1].
14. Hazel has been vomiting to be thin, which means that she is not better internally, therefore it is ironic that she said she has never been better. [1]
