Yea its 5AM and I've been trying to work this out.  :(

From VCAA 2009: 'euphemism promotes social harmony and strengthens the social fabric of our society. Discuss'

Firstly, what goes where. How many paragraphs are expected? Do we structure it like one point/example per paragraph?

And the exam tells us to use the stimulus material?
How do we incorporate this in the essay?

Can anyone do did eng lang last year also assist in brainstorming ideas for this essay or offer any advice on tackling it? Thanks a load

Did you end up coming to my school?

And read the examiners report.  I wrote an essay pretty similar to it...

Also, it is part of the assessment criteria that you utilise some of the stimulus material in your piece.  You can either quote something or refer to it.  It doesn't have to be a lot, but just make sure it is clear that it came from the stimulus.

i.e. You can't just quote 'language.'
