Baruti:Salaam aleikum bwana Mwamba! Sikudhani kuwa tungekutana hapa wakati kama huu. Niliarifiwa kuwa ulisafiri hadi Mchangabaridi kwa maonyesho ya kilimo. (Wanakumbatiana kwa furaha)
Mwamba:Aleikum salaam yakhe. Sikupata uwezo wa kufika huko bwana. Mazao niliyoyapeleka sokoni hayakupata wateja kutokana na kuwa hayakuwa bora kama msimu uliopita. (akionyesha uso wa majonzi)
Baruti:Inawezekana kuwa ulitumia mbinu zisizofaa za ukulima. Mbolea uliyokuwa ukitumia haikuwa salama kwa udongo na hata mazao. Nilikushauri kutumia samadi zaidi badala ya mbolea nyingi za madukani.
Mwamba:Ni kweli ndugu Baruti. Tatizo ni kuwa tayari nilikuwa nimekwishayamimina makopo kadhaa ardhini. Matokeo yake ni kuwa maboga na matikiti niliyoyavuna hayakuwa lolote wala chochote... madogo na yenye rangi isiyopendeza. 
Baruti:(Huku akimliwaza kwa kumpapasa bega) Usihofu bwana mkubwa. Naelekea mkutanoni sasa. Nitakaporudi, nitakupigia simu ili tukutane pale Makutano mkahawani nikupe ushauri zaidi kuhusu mbinu bora za kilimo.

It was interesting to see how people who did not have private vehicles travelled to and from this place. Since there are no buses to Moyale, passengers are forced to travel on top of lorries Sometimes, the same lorries would be carrying animals and one had to be careful not to fall on the animals.

Read the passage and then answer questions 10 to 12.
There is a great need of maintaining the safety and cleanliness of our environment. We all understand that environment means all that surround us. Therefore, soil, plants, water and air are important parts of the environment. Each of these has special ways of protection.
If soil is not protected, it becomes less productive. In such a situation, the crops farmers harvest become of low quality. This happens when dangerous chemicals are spilt on soil. Excessive use of inorganic fertilizers is another way of contaminating both soil and water. Instead, farmers are advised to use manures which do not have any negative effect on soil.
Plants, one of the major parts of the environment, need to be protected as well. Young plants or seedlings should be taken care of until they become big trees.

    1. Soil plants water and air.
