this isn't lack of information it is in detail....!! but they ask to write answers in phrases to be understood and short!!
I never said lack of detail, I said lack of understanding, as the basic purpose is to check if candidates understand the language and if you write a long answer they think you haven't gotten what the question required

I wrote (i) The writer stood dumbly at first (is it necessary to write at first here?)
(ii) The writer then got round asking if she could see her baby

The comprehension was fairly easy mate, I too want them to drop the threshold but its very unlikely that they will do that :(
