Youths are introduced to cigarettes by peers or friends. They love to experiment, and being

curious, they tread on forbidden grounds. A mere challenge by a friend can trigger off a

smoking habit just to be accepted into a group of friends. Young people also tend to attach

the macho image to smoking, imitating celebrities who smoke. Therefore, it is important that

famous personalities realise their moral role and become models to inculcate positive habits in

our youths.

5 According to the extract above, it is important for famous personalities to realise their

moral role because

A they are fashionable.

B they have to inculcate good habits.

C they have to look good to the public.

D young people tend to follow whatever they do.

Section C

[25 marks]

Questions 26 31 are based on the following passage.

1 Lahuma sprang to his feet. The voice had a very strange note. Urgent and

desperate. Thrusting his parang into its sheath at his waist, he bounded down to

the swamp, jumping over the clumps and logs that blocked his path.

2 Jeha! Jeha! he called.

3 Through the trees he saw his wife standing very still. Her face was deathly

pale.5

4 Jeha! Jeha! Lahuma called out. His wife did not reply.

5 Lahuma sprang forward. Then he caught sight of a black cobra a metre

away from his wife, its head reared knee high. That yellow-spotted head was

dilated and swaying from side to side like the stem of a wild ginger plant blowing

in the wind. At first he thought of grabbing a stick and beating that deadly snakewith it, but he feared the attack would cause it to strike at his wifes knee.

10

6 Dont move! he instructed.

7 He studied the cobras watchful attitude. It would spring into action the

moment his wife moved. It would strike her knee, or lunge upwards at her body or

face.15

8 Dont move! he said again.

9 Lahuma waited a long time, but the cobras head remained dilated and

swaying. In his heart he began to panic. He remembered an old folk saying: a

black cobra cannot see its prey when its head is fully dilated. But Lahuma could

not quite believe that. It seemed impossible that the cobra could not see at that

moment. What if the cobra poison entered his wifes heart? What of the rice still

unsown; the children at home; the work of planting, of picking up the crabs, of

chasing away the birds when they came? What of all these? Lahumas spirit began

to fail him. If that snake poured its poison into his wifes body, he would lose her,

he would lose his right hand.

20

25

10 Dont move! he said again.

11 But Jeha was growing faint. Her body swayed a little. A tremor shook her

head, and her face had grown ever paler.

12 Dont move your legs! Dont move! 30

13 But Jeha seemed to have lost her strength. She forgot everything. Her legs

began to shake; before long she would fall to the ground. Then the cobra wouldspring and strike home.

14 Lahuma grew desperate. Slowly he drew out his parang, meaning to hurl it

at the snake; but slowly he returned the parang to its sheath. An error in his throw

would just draw blood and drive the snake into furious action. But his wife would

not remain long on her feet. She was trembling more and more violently.

35

15 And with that yell he hurled himself like a wild wind at the swaying snake.

The cobra lunged but only struck empty air. Lahuma caught hold of its throat and

squeezed with all his might. The rest of the snakes body coiled round his hand.

With his left hand he drew his parang and slashed the cobra to pieces. He pressed

its head to the ground and pounded at it with his right fist till it was crushed into

the earth.

16 He stopped when he caught sight of the cobras remains all in shreds. He

was breathing hard and the sweat poured from his face and his whole body.

Beside him Jeha fell to the ground. Unconscious.

45

17 Jeha! Jeha! he called, tapping her cheeks with his left hand.

18 Jeha lay lifeless.

19 Did you disturb its nest?20 Still Jeha did not move. 50

21 Jeha! Jeha! He went on tapping his wifes cheeks. That was the male I

killed. The female has not come out yet. You must have disturbed her while she

was laying eggs.

22 But Jeha lay motionless. He carried her to a clearer spot and laid her on the

newly felled tree trunks. 55

23 Jeha! Jeha!

24 Lahumas anxiety mounted. The evil effects of the encounter with that

deadly snake had put his wife in a trance. What should he do? He lifted his wife in

his arms and with all his strength, fled with her out of the belukar. The female

cobra would come to attack them if they stayed. The mother-cobra would beutterly merciless. Would strike swiftly at their legs. Gone would be their hopes of

planting the fourteen relongs of rice. When he reached the edge of the village,

Lahuma looked around desperately, hoping to catch sight of someone. Then far

away across the rice fields, he saw the figure of a man dragging a large buffalo.
