A Christmas carol possibilities

Hey guys,
I remembered this after I posted the previous one, anyway as it is the last year it is running what could they possibly ask us that hasn't been examined in the past?

could it be a full just structure question? like
 'how does Dickens use structure to show Scrooges reform?'
or 'Dickens uses many literary and plot devices to engage the readers' discuss
as they haven't specifically asked a question on this yet?
or would that be too easy?

If a structure question came up, I guess what could be discussed would be showing PAST --> PRESENT --> FUTURE and how each of this temporal elements contribute to redemption.

Literary and plot devices? A LOT of students don't learn about the construction of Dickens' narrative, and I don't imagine VCAA would put a question that delves specifically into that. Perhaps though it could be 'Dickens uses X to engage the readers'. Discuss. In that way you could discuss the entertaining element, enthralling element and how these engage the reader to the WIDER picture (i.e. the morality tale that ACC essentially is).
