The student effectively connects the global issue of punishment without due process to the chosen extracts, specifically highlighting how Margaret Atwood's The Handmaid's Tale and Patrick Chappatte's cartoon American Justice illustrate this theme. The analysis is well-supported by relevant references, showcasing Atwood's use of figurative language and Chappatte's symbolic imagery. However, the student lacks a clear understanding of the literal meanings and context of the extracts, which detracts from their analysis. Additionally, while the student draws insightful conclusions about the representations of the global issue, their interpretations require further clarification to strengthen the connections between the texts and the broader implications of political control. Overall, the student's frequent references and detailed analysis demonstrate a solid engagement with the texts, but improvements in contextual understanding and persuasive analysis are needed.
