Mark scheme
Marking points from the official mark scheme (Oct/Nov 2024). The mark or mark type is shown in brackets.
- [1] Accurate completion of secondary sector dividing line at 64%
- [1] Accurate completion of shading for secondary sector (shaded/solid colour) AND accurate completion of shading for tertiary sector (diagonal lines in the correct direction).
- [1] 37%
- [1] Primary: farmer, miner
- [1] Secondary: carpet weaver, steel worker
- [1] Tertiary: call centre worker, doctor
- [1] New industries, factories, or manufacturing areas were built, leading to increased industrialization and growth, including the establishment of industrial estates/zones.
- [1] Mechanization of agriculture in the primary sector led to job losses there, causing workers to shift to the secondary sector.
- [1] Pay and working conditions in the secondary sector became higher or improved compared to the primary sector, attracting more labor.
- [1] A higher amount of skilled or educated labor became available, supporting industrial expansion.
- [1] There was a higher demand for manufactured products and increased revenue from them.
- [1] Government policies supported industries, aiming to boost domestic manufacturing, reduce imports, and offering loans for setting up new industries.
- [1] Increased foreign investment and the establishment of TNCs contributed to industrial growth.
- [1] Improved road and rail networks made it easier for workers to commute and for materials to reach industries and markets.
- [1] Improvements in power and electricity supply supported industrial operations.
- [1] International trade links make exporting manufactured goods more attractive, further stimulating the secondary sector.
- [1] Similarity: Both industries involve by-hand/manual work, using hand tools and no machinery. They are both secondary sector/manufacturing, operate as cottage industries (often in people's homes), utilize traditional skills/handicraft/craft industries, are small-scale, labour intensive, and their products take a long time to make. Products may also be left out to dry or stacked up.
- [1] Difference: The industries produce different products (tiles vs. baskets), use different raw materials (ceramics/pottery/clay vs. willow/straw), employ different tools/techniques (painting vs. basket making/weaving), operate in different settings (indoor vs. outdoor), involve different worker demographics (individual/male vs. group/family/mixed genders), and have different sized or arranged work areas (tiles more compact vs. baskets spread out).
- [1] making of products using raw materials/finished goods/final product/a processed product/goods/made in a factory/workshop/with machinery/with tools/by hand
- [1] steel/stainless steel/metal(s)
- [1] titanium/nickel/aluminium/platinum/tantalum/palladium/tungsten
- [1] chemicals
- [1] water
- [1] ceramics
- [1] plastic/cardboard/packaging
- [1] rubber/latex
- [1] flat/large land/site (to easily build factory on) OR supply of raw materials/steel OR close to/access to market OR close to/access transport system/roads/railway OR close to/access airports OR close to/access dry ports/seaports OR close to/access to skilled labour OR reliable power/energy supply OR in area/zone with policies/incentives
- [2] Temperature: Extreme hot or cold temperatures can deter tourists, while more temperate areas attract them.
- [2] Heavy rainfall/snow: Flooding or avalanches can destroy infrastructure, but snow can attract tourists for skiing.
- [2] Topography (steep/rugged/flat land): Influences the ease of building roads, hotels, and resorts for accessibility and development.
- [2] Scenic beauty/unspoilt locations: Attracts tourists for photography and relaxation.
- [2] Pollution (water/air/land)/deforestation: Can ruin natural beauty, deterring tourists.
- [2] Heritage/cultural attractions: Historic or religious buildings attract tourists seeking to learn.
- [2] Transport system (airports/roads/railways): Good infrastructure provides comfortable, safe, and quick access for tourists.
- [2] Accommodation (hotels/resorts): Availability of high-standard accommodation, food, clean water, and internet is crucial for tourist expectations.
- [2] Power/electricity: Essential for comfort, such as air conditioning or heating.
- [2] Workforce availability: A skilled workforce is needed for jobs in hotels, as tour guides, and for security.
- [2] Investment (government grants/policies/foreign companies/tour operators): Drives development and advertising of tourist regions.
- [2] Seasons/seasonal work: Areas may not attract tourists year-round, limiting income to specific seasons.
- [L3] the importance of the formal sector for Pakistan's tourism industry includes: enables the investment required to build attractions and services; generates stable employment/reduces unemployment; generates tax that can be reinvested in the tourist industry; enhances international reputation of Pakistan; improves infrastructure; formal services will be regulated e.g. covered by insurance.
- [L3] the importance of the informal sector for Pakistan's tourism industry includes: provides employment for unskilled workers; provides opportunities for business/entrepreneurship; supports the development of skills/could lead to formal employment later; can meet demand not met by the formal sector; adapts quickly to new or temporary trends/demands in tourism; adds to cultural experience for tourists.
