Justify using evidence from the text. (2 marks) This question tells us what to find evidence for. However, it can be tricky because it doesn't tell us where to find it. You need to skim and scan for when the narrator finds Gizmo and collect evidence that shows he was not expecting to find Gizmo not moving on the floor. Answer: When the narrator finds Gizmo, he tries to stop the panic rising in his

• chest. When Gizmo doesn't react to the Jammie Dodger, the narrator begins to
• cry. He also tells himself to calm down for Gizmo.

Tip: Sometimes an answer doesn't need an explanation because the evidence clearly supports your point.
