    I would award 2 marks for pupil D,0 for pupil E and F.
    Mdm Rokiah was speaking to the one laying unconsious who was not able to speak,so pupil E is wrong.
    pupil D was right because Mdm Rokiah was the one speaking to the women.
    pupil F was almost right but got it wrong because of one word 'has',it has already past!!
    ANS:Mdm Rokiah was speaking to the woman whom survived the plane crash.

  2. D: It would get 2 marks if who was used instead of whom. It wold work if it was women(plural) not woman(singular) but would still be wrong because survive is written in the wrong tense, it should be in the past tense instead of the present tense.0 marks.
    E: Whom is wrong. 0 marks.
    F: The word has should not be there. 0 marks.

    D:It will get 2 marks as it is in the correct Tense And Language.
    F:The "Has" in the sentence should be had as the sentence is wrong.I Would Award Him One And a Half Mark Because Of The Grammar Mistake(-1/2).

  5. I think i will give student D 2 marks as if he/she had put who.
    I should give student E 0 marks as the nouns 'Mdm Rokiah' first.
    i should give student f 0 mark as the word women is in its plural form as it supposed to be singular form.

    ANS: Mdm Rokiah was speaking to the woman whom survived the plane crash.

  6. I would award pupil D,E and F 0 mark.
    Pupil D should use the word survived rather than survive.
    Pupil E sentence structure is wrong.
    Pupil F use the word women is the plural form instead of woman.It also should not include the word has.
    The answer should be Mdm Rokiah was speaking to the woman whom survived the plane crash.
