LISTENING SKILL
Once upon, a snake killed Mother Toad’s family members. One day, Mother Toad said to herself, “only tricks will save me from this deadly creature”. Since Mother Toad could not move as fast as the snake, she dug several holes close to each other. The holes were big enough for her to turn. One late evening, she saw the snake running after her. She moved very quickly to the nearest hole. She entered the hole and turned the face to the entrance. She opened her mouth wide. The snake came and got its head into the mouth of Mother Toad. Mother Toad tightened her jaws on the head of the snake and squeezed it until it died from lack of air

The Wind's Song
The wind whispers secrets to the trees,
A gentle song on a summer breeze.
It rustles the leaves, a playful sound,
And carries the scent of flowers around.
With a mighty gust, it takes to the sky,
And dances with clouds as they float by.
The wind's wild song, it fills the air,
A melody heard everywhere

COMPREHENSION
Read the passage below and answer the questions that follow.
Pollution is the release of unwanted materials such as plastic bags, cans, untreated waste products, and smoke into the land, atmosphere, rivers and oceans. These disturb the natural process of the earth. These materials are known as pollutants. Very often, these pollutants are waste products from industrial, agricultural or domestic processes. The earth has natural processes which are very good at breaking down and recycling natural waste. However, waste has become excessive in most places and the natural recycling systems have become overloaded.
There are different kinds of pollution such as air, land and water pollution. The air we breathe can be dirty and dangerous because of the pollutants it may contain. This could lead to illnesses like cancer, asthma and reduced brain growth in children. Power stations, factories, motor vehicles and fuel burning in homes are the main causes of air pollution which is carried by the wind and spread in our environment. We can stop pollution by doing the following: buy and use environmentally friendly products, never drop used materials/ containers everywhere, join in a local project to clean up your neighbourhood, save energy and remember to turn off the radio, cooking fire, TV and lights when they are not being used.

SECTION D: COMPREHENSION
Read the following passage and then answer the questions provided below
At the beginning of every new academic year, teachers and pupils at Maendeleo primary school set their goals for improving their academic performance. At the beginning of this year, standard six pupils were very eager to set their goals with their class teacher. On that particular day, their teacher started with a general discussion on their academic performance. She said that most pupils did well in their terminal examinations; therefore, she was happy with their performance. However, she was
unhappy with the performance of a few pupils who did not do well. She said that they had to set new goals that would enable everybody to perform better. The pupils were allowed to point out important things which would contribute to their academic improvement.
First of all, the pupils were concerned about discipline. They agreed that every pupil should follow regulations. The teacher added, “when you are disciplined, you can focus on your studies. In this way, you can concentrate more on your lessons and allow yourselves to think Cleary and effectively.”
Secondly, they discussed the importance of giving equal consideration to every subject. The teacher said that she had noted that some pupils did very well in some subjects but did very badly in others. She said that she could not understand why a pupil could have an ‘A’ in Mathematics and a ‘D’ in other subjects.
Then, they talked about cooperative learning. Some pupils even gave examples of pupils who had worked cooperatively in previous years, and they all had succeeded by scoring an average of ‘A’ in their school leaving examinations. The teacher advised the pupils to work cooperatively regardless of individual differences. She said, “some pupils neglect others because they consider them dull. The truth is that nobody is dull. The person you consider dull today can be the brightest of all tomorrow.” This statement raised a lot of positive responses from the pupils. They gave more examples of previous pupils who were once below average but later became the best and passed their final examinations with flying colours.

In our society we are surrounded by resources that mostly bring benefits to us. The resources are such as land, water bodies, minerals, forest, electricity, roads, dams, railways and many others. There are natural resources and man-made resources that contribute a lot of activities to be fulfilled. Despite the presence of these resources people have been destroying them regardless of the benefits they provide. The destructions come through many ways such as cutting down trees, mining, overgrazing, poaching and stealing oil in electricity transformers.
However, it is the responsibility of everyone to protect the resources in the society and to report the people who destroy the resources for the own interests. In fact the destructions of resources may lead the society into calamity.
Most of the people do destroy the resources intentionally although it is normally insisted that the national resources should be kept for the benefits of all people and nation at large.

A long time ago hare and the elephant were great friends. They ate together and drank together and even wore same clothes. It was unusual to see the hare wearing oversized clothes that belonged to the Elephant. The Hares clothes went only as far as the head and so in an attempt to please the hare, the elephant wore the Hares clothes on his head. One day as the hare was walking around the village, he found a pair of shoes. The shoes belonged to Assumpta, the chief’s daughter. The Hare tried them and when they fitted he took them and went on his way proudly showing off to the elephant. The elephant wanted a similar pair of shoes. They had to be exactly the same size and Colour. The hare said he would make the Elephants feet smaller first. He said they should start working the next day at a secret place where no one else would see him. The Hare made a big fire and heated an iron on it with the red hot iron he started slicing the Elephant’s feet. The Elephant did not want to show any signs of pain, when at last he could not bear the pain, he yelled out loudly.
“Elephant”, said the hare mockingly, “your size does not allow you to cry like a baby. Don’t you want the shoes?” actually I don’t feel any pain at all,” lied the Elephant. It was however very painful and when the hare burned to add some firewood in fire, the elephant took off at a great speed. He did not go very far, though because his feet were already very swollen. No wonder the elephant has such big feet, they have remained swollen. That evening the hare went to the village. Someone spotted Assumpta’s shoes that the hare was wearing. The hare was cornered and that day he became soup for the Assumptas family. Before he died he said that he had learnt his lesson.
