The idea

The nineteenth century is when the novel became the dominant literary form in English. Units ten and eleven worked Austen, Brontë and Dickens, all of this band. The prose passages the exam prints are more likely to come from here than from anywhere else.

In practice

The novel becomes dominant.

Where people slip

The likeliest source of prose extracts.
