Roasted by the sunMy mother didn't have anyone to help her take care of me whilst she was working in the field; she therefore strapped' me to her back whilst working. This was very tiring as she had to bend down all the time using a long knife for cultivation or a jembe. Sometimes 1 "would be crying on her back or sleeping, but so long as I was fed and dry rny mother would continue working.When I grew a little bigger, my mother couldn't work properly v$th me on her back, and so she laid me down at the foot of a banana tree. She made sure that the sun was not shining directly on me and that the shadow of the banana tree was cast on me so it couid protect me from the hot sun.One day my mother and my aunt, Waugui, were working together and as usual they laid me tinder a banana tree. The sun was very hot. They had already fed me and I was nice and dry. They continued cultivating and singing happily. For a while they forgot me and as the time went by the shadow of the tree moved a way and exposed me to the sun.The sun started 'roasting' me and though I tossed and cried, both my mother and my aunt thought it is normal for a baby. Louder I cried and then my voice grew faint and thin. At this, my mother looked back to my tree and saw, still, in the gull glaring sun."Wangui!""What's wrong?" My aunt had not yet seen me. "We forgot the baby and he might be dead!."Oh N'giiH'"5 cried 'my Aunt; "Lets run fast!". They scrambled up and, dropping their hoes, ran to me. They lifted up the little cloth with which they had covered me, and to their horror found I was bright red all over, like peer! They were very frightened,"Oh, my dear, lovely son!""What shall we tell his father?" asked my Aunt.He will be extremely angry - we must do something quickly".They rushed me to a nearby well and soaked in the water.

Malindi Girl's Secondary School

P.O.BOX, 1234, Malindi.

8th March, 2013

Dear Ruth,

How are you? I do hope that you and the family are all well.

1 am sorry: it has been ages since 1 wrote to you last. As you can imagine, I have been

extremely busy at my new school, and I suppose you have, too. I hope that you have

settled into your new school, as easily as I have in mine. 1 really feel at home, now I have

made lots of new friends, and I have found that the work is not as difficult as I thought it

would be.

In your last letter you asked me what we do in science at Malindi Girl's. We are terribly lucky, here, because the school is very close to the sea shore, and our science teacher, Miss Temu, takes full advantage of it. "The whole world is a laboratory", she says, and off we to the sea, with buckets and baskets and nets, to collect things of interest.,••'••" '1

* Last week we collected shells, star fish, crabs, snails, sea urchins and all kinds of things. We even got some sand and sea water. My best friend here, Mwajuma, found a thing called a hermit crab. Have you seen one? It is a horrible, hairy red thing that takes over empty old shells, and uses them as its home.As soon as Mwajuma picked it up, it hid inside the shell, and we didn't know how to make come out. I was going to break the shell with a hamer,but Miss Timu said I would crash the animal it I did that, she put it in a jar and poured sea water on it, and this affected it at once; it came out and started moving. - it was horrible!After we got back to school, we got a big glass container and made an aquarium. We put some sand ajid stones at the bottom, as well as various plants, seaweed and coral we had collected

from the reef. One girl wanted to put clean water from tap into it. But Miss Temu told us to use sea water. She said sea water contains some dissolved mineral salts that fresh water doesn't contain.n It was a super aquarium so we could all watch it. Some of the shell-fish crawled into the Seaweed and coral, and hid their beautiful shells with their mantle. But one big sea snail climbed up the side of the aquarium so we watch it. We could also see beautiful angle-fish gulping for oxygen as they swam round.Unfortunately, a day later we found that the fish were all dead. The water became polluted, and the shell-fish were passing threads of black matter into the water. What a shame! Tomorrow I'm going to ask Miss Temu why it happened.Well, I. really, must stop now; 1 have a mountain of homework to do. Please greet, the family for me when you next write home, and don't forget to write to me, too! We must not lose contact just because we are at different schools. But of course we shall meet again very soon, when the holidays start.

All the best,

love

Mary

Read the passage and answer the questions that follow.A policeman was only ten yards away and he was coming straight at Xuma. Xuma waited. He raised his stick and brought it down with force.

He bunched his great fist and struck again hard. The policeman groaned and collapsed in a heap and lay still.

Xuma looked around. The van was still a distance away but two policemen were closing in on him.'Now I will run,' he said and ran down the street.'Stop that man,' one of the Police shouted,A coloured man stepped into the road and help up his hands. Xuma braced himself. His heart was pounding but he ran easily. He must be careful or this yellow bastard would deliver him to the police. Another coloured man stepped into the road. Xuma felt afraid. To rim and knock down two men at the same time was impossible. They would catch him. He could hear the feet of the policeman behind him. He hated the coloureds. He would hurt one of them before they got him, these half castes!An unbelievable thing happened. The second colored man knocked the first one down and ran down the street waving to Xuma.Xuma smiled and increased his pace.
