[Time suggested: 50 minutes]Questions 26-31Read the passage below and answer the questions that follow.

The whispers and giggles woke me up early in the morning. Acrossthe room, curious children peeked over the open window's edge. Feelinga liule embarrassed to be caught sleeping on the table, I waved them offand got myself together. Refugee camp or not, I still needed the first fewminutes of the day to myself.

Half an hour later I presented myself to the Red Crescent office. Iwas ready to begin work as the Social Care Coordinator at the PulauBidong Vietnamese Boat People (VBP) Carnp off the coast of Terengganu,Malaysia. It was June 1979. As a fresh sociology grad, I was bent onchanging the world, or at least the world of the 46,000 refugees crowdedonto 100 hectares of land.

The Red Crescent Office and store was one of the few real buildingsin the camp. The others were a camp hospital, the offices for the thirdcountry delegations, and the Joint Malaysian Army & Navy Base Headquarters. There was also a church, which the refugees had built with thewood found on the island.

I was brought to see the chairman of the VBP Carnp Committee.He was delighted. "Finally! Something more than the basic necessities wasin sight," he said. He wanted activities for the women and children to beorganized. Supplies and clothing to enable the running of English classes.Work groups and other sessions that would help to sustain life in the campand prepare the refugees for their new lives in countries such as the UnitedStates, Australia and Germany. I was expected to help coordinate the move-ment of these supplies and work with the camp Committee to ensure theywere used appropriately.

I learnt all this over breakfast with the committee. Our meal caughtme by surprise-delicious freshly baked French loaves with butter and hottea. They told me if I stayed at the camp long enough, I would come toknow the places where I could eat delicious Vietnamese food, courtesy ofcamp residents who could cook.

Then I met the delegates from different countries, the people whodecided who would be accepted to which countries. Finally I was assigneda translator. His name was Lam Van Dai. We toured the rest of the campand I saw that most of the refugees Iived in tents or shacks built with scrap

wood, tarpaulin bags and anything else that was available. Long houseswere being built to provide better accommodation, but until they wereready, it was up to each family's ingenuity to find the best accommodationthey could.

Indeed, the island's natural vegetation had long been stripped tomake temporary housing. Water sources were no longer potable. Dailyferries brought in water, two buckets per household. People waited patientlyin queues that snaked up and down the shoreline near the makeshift jettyto collect it.

their ration of instant noodles and sardines with me, but also their hopes

and dreams. He was among the lucky ones on the camps because he

had worked for the Americans and he could speak English. Mostly he spoke

of the terrible journey across the South China Sea, the fear of being killedby the pirates and the long days in the sea without water, and how theyhad to hold on to the hope that they would reach safety.

9 That night, I took a few minutes to look back over my day as Istared at the zinc walls. There was so much to do. I really did not knowhow I was going to do it.

And the reaped canefields lie bare and fallow to the sun.But best of all there are the days when the mango andthe logwood blossomWhen the bushes are full of the sound of bees and thescent of honey,

When the tall grass sways and shivers to the slightestbreath of air,When the buttercups have paved the earth with yellowstars
