Answer 1

It may help to paraphrase the introduction to an article as in WIki:

The Zulu (South African English and isiZulu: amaZulu) are the largest South African ethnic group of an estimated 10-11 million people who live mainly in the province of KwaZulu-Natal, South Africa. The Zulu form South Africa's largest single ethnic group. Small numbers also live in Zimbabwe, Zambia, and Mozambique. Their language, isiZulu, is a Bantu language; more specifically, part of the Nguni subgroup. The Zulu Kingdom played a major role in South African History during the 19th and 20th centuries. Under apartheid, Zulu people were classed as third-class citizens and suffered from state sanctioned discrimination. Today, they are the most numerous ethnic group in South Africa, and have equal rights along with all other citizens.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zulu

Here is my paraphrase:

The Zulu people make up the largest tribal group in South Africa. They also live in the neighboring countries of Zimbabwe, Zambia, and Mozambique. The Zulu have played a major role in the history of South Africa. Under apartheid (racial segregation), they were treated unfairly, as third-class citizens. Today they enjoy equal rights.

Study Skills, Essay Writing.

As the essay paper has evolved it has become more demanding with much more emphasis on posing questions which allow candidates to display the higher order skills. Professor Roy Wilkinson of Sheffield University has identified a pyramid of skills which A level examinations try to test.
