Language analysis - two articles

[RexPP]

Does anyone have any practice language analysis pieces with two articles? Some of the older VCAA exams have two articles and no visual, whereas last years and all the practice exams made by Insight, Neap etc over the past two years have an article and a visual. My teacher maintains that we could get all three (one visual, two articles), so if anyone has an example of such, I'd appreciate you sharing 

EDIT: Didn't really make myself clear, I'm not looking for a written up essay. Rather the articles + visual themselves.

I think it's guaranteed that we won't get 2 articles under the current study design....?

i could be very very wrong so please don't quote me on it... but the front cover of the 2009 english exam that vcaa published (along with this years assessment criteria) said something like "how is language used to persuade an audience in the oppinion piece found on page...". if thats the case then section c would be a singular analysis.

That is what it says, however VCAA states that the amount of questions they specify on exam covers is subject to change in the actual exam, so I assume that sort of stuff would be as well.

I also think it's highly unlikely that we'll get all three but my teacher maintains that its a possibility.

then what's the point of the cover page?

So you know what the front cover looks like

My teacher has been saying the same thing, two articles and a picture, we've had a few practice things for it

Don't ask me, but
"Students should note that the number of pages, questions and marks shown for the examination may differ slightly from the number indicated in the actual examination books given to students on the day of the examination" - VCAA website.

The above were just THOUGHTS, because I really wan to believe its 1 article+image

About that quote. I have been thinking about it.

Okay, the reason I think they put that there as a watermark is as a PRECAUTION, its one of those things they put on there but never go through with it?

Like, just incase I don't know, they they made a typo and forget to write PIECES (plural)  then if people complain "oh, but the front cover said theres 1 article", well they have a disclaimer.... like a back up should ANYTHING change last minute.

However logically the probability of that is extremely low, since exams are written in May? I think, and the front covers were released WAYYYY after.

They also say the marks could change, because they mgiht have a question which is found to be debatable/wrong etc.

Or maybe it's to throw us off? Write the exams then write up a cover that's wrong and catch all the students off guard... dunno
