Figure analysis
Q
How far is this figure a useful illustration of the urban heat island?Use the spatial pattern and the quality of the data in your judgement.
[6 marks]Figure 14London heat island, minimum temperatures in °C
Chandler, 1965
Isotherms connect points of equal air temperature.Closer spacing indicates a steeper thermal gradient.
Read the spatial pattern
- Located data: the City of London reaches about 11°C while Hillingdon is about 5°C.
- Gradient: minimum temperature generally falls with distance from central London.
- Irregularity: the isotherms are not perfectly concentric, so equal distance does not produce an equal temperature change.
Evaluate the figure
Useful
Shows the spatial extent of the heat island and makes thermal gradients easy to identify.
Limitations
One historic snapshot, minimum temperature only, no scale bar or north arrow, and no evidence that the pattern repeats.
1DescribeWhat is the pattern?
2EvidenceWhich locations and values prove it?
3ExplainWhy is the pattern irregular?
4EvaluateHow trustworthy is the figure?
Model judgement
The figure is useful because the isotherms make the thermal gradient across London immediately visible and allow located comparison. However, its value is limited by the age and narrow temporal scope of the data, so it demonstrates the pattern more convincingly than it proves its present day magnitude.
02
A Level Spanish
A Level Spanish: film analysis and Paper 2 writing
This lesson pack combines a film still, direct quotations, grammar, cinematography and structured essay writing.
01
Integrated analysis. Language and film technique are analysed together to build stronger arguments.

03
Independent writing. Scaffolds lead into PETACE paragraphs and timed Paper 2 responses.

Pregunta de ensayo
¿Hasta qué punto presenta del Toro la desobediencia como una virtud?
encuadre
distancia
iluminación
Cita 1 · lenguaje
“Lo que has hecho... Me duele.”
Interpretación: Carmen convierte la conducta de Ofelia en una traición personal, de modo que la obediencia se presenta como una obligación emocional además de social.
Cita 2 · gramática
“Cuando salgas del baño, te irás a la cama sin cenar.”
Interpretación: el futuro “irás” convierte el castigo en algo absoluto e incuestionable, reforzando la autoridad de Carmen sobre Ofelia.
Del fotograma al argumento
Encuadre y distancia¿Cómo separa visualmente a Carmen y Ofelia?aislamiento y conflicto
Atrezzo¿Qué función tiene la bañera y el vestido estropeado?disciplina y pérdida de inocencia

Frase de evaluación
Aunque la desobediencia permite a Ofelia resistir la autoridad, no se trata simplemente de rebeldía, sino de una decisión moral cuyo valor depende de sus consecuencias. De este modo, del Toro distingue entre la desobediencia impulsiva y la resistencia ética.

You helped me balance all of my subjects, not just Spanish.”
