  1. Audience refers to the topic; purpose refers to the word count
  2. Audience is who the text is written for; purpose is why the text is written

  4. Audience and purpose mean the same thing in non-fiction writing
Show answer & explanation
✓ Answer: B — Audience is who the text is written for; purpose is why the text is written
Audience refers to the intended reader or listener of the text, while purpose describes the writer's reason for producing it, such as to persuade, inform, or entertain.

Is Kramizo free for AQA GCSE students preparing for English Language?
Yes — completely free. Every student gets 45 questions a day on the free plan, with no card required and no trial countdown.

Are the Writing: Viewpoints and Perspectives questions aligned to the official AQA GCSE English Language syllabus?
Every question is written against the published AQA GCSE English Language specification, including the exact command words (state, describe, explain, calculate, evaluate, etc.), mark allocations, and difficulty tier you'd see on a real AQA paper. Explanations are written in the style of official examiner mark schemes — they tell you what is being awarded marks and why distractors are wrong, not just whether you got it right. The bank is continually refined to match the latest syllabus updates from AQA.
How is Writing: Viewpoints and Perspectives typically tested on AQA GCSE English Language papers?
