1. [7] Level 5: Explains the point of view of the cartoonist e.g., the cartoonist is criticising the UN for punishing Israel, Britain and France for Suez but letting the Soviets get away with suppressing Hungary. (As long as response has critical of UN, allow half of this example. No valid explanation = Level 3/3.)
2. [5-6] Level 4: Explains the big message. (The UN is punishing/dealing with those involved in Suez, but the Soviets [Khrushchev] are getting away with suppressing Hungary.)
3. [3-4] Level 3: Explains sub-message(s) e.g., Hungary has lost its freedom, Nasser is very pleased with events, the UN punished Israel, Britain and France.
4. [2] Level 2: Interprets details of the cartoon e.g., the figure holding Hungary down represents Khrushchev.
5. [1] Level 1: Answers based on surface reading OR misinterpretation of the cartoon e.g., order has been restored in Hungary.
