Ответ:

1 Andy didn't do well in the exam.

The meaning of the sentence changes depending on which word is stressed:

ANDY didn't do well in the exam. - It was Andy who performed poorly, not someone else. (ЭНДИ плохо сдал экзамен. - Плохо сдал именно Энди, а не кто-то другой.)

Andy DIDN'T do well in the exam. - This is used to strongly contradict someone who claims Andy did well. (Энди НЕ сдал экзамен хорошо. - Используется, чтобы решительно возразить тому, кто утверждает, что Энди сдал хорошо.)

Andy didn't do WELL in the exam. - He may have passed, but his grade wasn't good. (Энди сдал экзамен не ХОРОШО. - Возможно, он сдал, но его оценка была невысокой.)

Andy didn't do well in the EXAM. - He performed poorly on the exam specifically, but he might be doing well in other areas, like homework. (Энди плохо сдал именно ЭКЗАМЕН. - Он плохо справился именно с экзаменом, но, возможно, успевает в чем-то другом, например, в домашней работе.)

2 He was caught hitting another pupil.

The meaning of the sentence changes depending on which word is stressed:

HE was caught hitting another pupil. - It was him who was caught, not someone else. (ЕГО поймали, когда он бил другого ученика. - Поймали именно его, а не кого-то другого.)

He WAS caught hitting another pupil. - This confirms that he was definitely caught, perhaps in response to someone doubting it. (Его ДЕЙСТВИТЕЛЬНО поймали, когда он бил другого ученика. - Это подтверждает, что его точно поймали, возможно, в ответ на чьи-то сомнения.)

He was caught HITTING another pupil. - The specific action was hitting, not something else like pushing or shouting. (Его поймали, когда он БИЛ другого ученика. - Он именно бил, а не делал что-то другое, например, толкал или кричал.)

He was caught hitting ANOTHER pupil. - He hit a different pupil, not the one previously mentioned or expected. (Его поймали, когда он бил ДРУГОГО ученика. - Он ударил другого ученика, не того, о котором говорилось ранее или которого ожидали.)

He was caught hitting another PUPIL. - The person he hit was a pupil, not a teacher or someone else. (Его поймали, когда он бил другого УЧЕНИКА. - Человек, которого он ударил, был учеником, а не учителем или кем-то еще.)
