Questions 8-17 Read the information below and complete the graphic organizer that follows.
One of the ways we can help save the environment is by learning the
difference between “needs" and "wants”. Much of the carbon dioxide
emissions and waste generated are a result of our wants that we convince
ourselves are our needs. We tell ourselves we need a big petrol-guzzling
SUV because we need the space for long drives. Many do not realize that
Dr Anand a smaller car will do, too.
Examine everything you want to throw out. Is it broken or just old?
Can you repair it? Can you recycle it? Can you give it to someone
who needs it? Consider the four R’s : reduce, reuse, repair and
recycle. If your local authority does not have a recycling station,
then campaign for one to be set up. You can save the environment
by recycling. Puan Maimunah
Do not be a water guzzler A few easy things to reduce your water
consumption is to turn the tap off when brushing your teeth. Have a
shower instead of a bath. Collect rain water to water the plants. Fix leaky
taps. Wash only full loads of laundry.
Mrs Chew
Exercise and walk to wherever you want to go. It is good for you.
There are other ways of travelling to work. Cycle or take a bus and
if all else fails, car pool.
Mr Jacob
I will support local farmers by shopping for vegetables grown locally as
this will reduce fuel costs and long supply chains. Locally grown
vegetables are cheaper and taste better. Use all vegetable and food waste
as compost for your garden.

Questions 18 – 22 are based on the following passage
1 Few people have gone through their teens without feeling at some time or other
that they were not understood by their parents. It should not surprise them to find that
people occasionally fail to understand them. Often enough they find it hard to
understand themselves – especially during the turbulent teens. This bitter mood of
loneliness in teenagers usually follows some disagreement with their parents. Jason 5
may be told not to go to a certain movie. Pat may be told not to mix with certain
companions and Alice is forbidden to see a certain boy while Anna is refused money
for a new dress for a party. So they conclude that their parents are old-fashioned
squares who just do not understand the youth of today.
2 If you look back over the past 16 to 19 years you can, I am sure, find ample 10
evidence that your parents love you. They have, for instance, spent a fortune on you;
on clothes food, shelter, entertainment and education. Probably both your father and
mother have done without a thing so that they could spend money on you. Besides,
they have spent hours, years rather, caring for you and your comfort from the days
when they walked you up and down the bedroom in the early hours of the morning 15
trying to get you back to sleep, right down to the last meal your mother cooked for
you. In fact, you and your happiness have been at the back of all their decisions and
plans. They have proven that they love you more than anyone else you know –
probably more than anyone else ever will.
3 Therefore, you can be sure that any regulations they make, any prohibitions they 20
impose, any commands they give is motivated by their love for you and their desire
for your happiness. You can be sure that no one is more interested in your welfare and
happiness than they are. Whatever you think of their ideas, at least you must concede
that their intentions are good. Of course the misunderstood teenagers will say that they
do not question their parents’ love. It is just that their parents have such ideas and such 25
old-fashioned ways of looking at things. They have not moved with the times.
4 Teenagers should realize that parents, when giving advice to their sons or
daughters, talk from experience – their own and that of others they have known. They
have been through the teens themselves and can remember their problems, their
dreams, their fears and their hopes. They have met all the situations you are now 30
encountering and many, many more that you have not yet encountered. They know
from their experience how they overcame this or that problem, how they ran into
danger doing this or following that course of action. They remember people who
slipped morally, and others who messed up their own lives. Your parents remember
how it all started and where these people went wrong. 35

5 It is their dearest wish to save you from similar mistakes and so they use their
experience to protect you from anything or anyone they can see who would endanger
your faith, your morals or your happiness. That is why parents are not impressed when
you say, “But lots of young folks are allowed to do such and such a thing…”. Your
parents know that there have always been those who were allowed such liberties and 40
they have seen the results. They want to save you from those results.
6 Perhaps you have failed to prove that you are grown-up enough to be trusted;
maybe you have lied about where you have been or with whom; maybe the friends you
have selected so far are not worthwhile and your parents fear that you lack judgment;
maybe you have not enough interest in your religious duties and your parents are trying 45
to save you from further drifting from the truth, religion and morals. The quickest way
to be treated like an adult is to act like one.
7 Of course, parents are not infallible and they can also make mistakes. They
can have blind spots in their judgments. They can let their opinion of someone be
warped by prejudice. They can misread a situation and condemn it unreasonably. But 50
when they impose some restrictions or regulations, they presumption is that they do
understand and that they have good reason for making it, a reason based on their love
for you. If you remember this instead of wallowing in immature self-pity and sobbing
over ‘poor little me’ you will be a lot easier to live with. You will be a great deal
happier and you will have a sure and safe guidance over the dangerous years. 55

Read the poem below and answer the questions that follow.
The Living Photograph
My small grandmother is tall there,
straight back, white broderie anglaise shirt,
pleated skirt, flat shoes, grey bun,
a kind, old smile round her eyes.
Her big hand holds mine,
white hand in black hand.
Her sharp blue eyes look her own death in the eye.
It was true after all, that look.
My tall grandmother became small.
Her back round and hunched
Her soup forgot to boil.
She went to the awful place grandmothers go
Somewhere unknown, unthinkable.
But there she is still,
In the photo with me at three,
The crinkled smile is still living, breathing.
Jackie Kay
