Question 1 · 1 mark · Difficulty 1/3

At the start of Blood Brothers, Mrs Johnstone agrees to give one of her twin sons to Mrs Lyons. What is Mrs Johnstone's main reason for agreeing to this arrangement?

  1. She cannot afford to raise both children
  2. She wants her son to have a father figure
  3. She does not want twin boys in the house
  4. Mrs Lyons threatens to call the police
Show answer & explanation
✓ Answer: A — She cannot afford to raise both children
Mrs Johnstone is struggling financially — she is already in debt, has many children, and her husband has left her. Mrs Lyons exploits this vulnerability by offering the child a better material life. Mrs Johnstone does not dislike twin boys specifically, nor is she threatened with police action. While the absence of a father is a pressure, it is poverty rather than the desire for a father figure that drives her decision.
Question 2 · 1 mark · Difficulty 1/3

What job does Mrs Johnstone do at the start of the play?

  1. She works in a factory
  2. She runs a corner shop
  3. She teaches at a school
  4. She cleans for Mrs Lyons
Show answer & explanation
✓ Answer: D — She cleans for Mrs Lyons
Award 1 mark. Her job in Mrs Lyons's house is how the two mothers meet and make their bargain. She does not work in a factory, run a shop or teach.

Are the Modern text: Blood Brothers questions aligned to the official AQA GCSE English Literature syllabus?
Every question is written against the published AQA GCSE English Literature 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 Modern text: Blood Brothers typically tested on AQA GCSE English Literature papers?
