Aghalabu kila wakati nilipomtembelea nyanya yangu, alikuwa akinitambia hadithi. Basi nilipomtembelea mwezi Juni, aliweza kunitambia hadithi kuhusu Mzee Hekima na bibi yake. Waliishi katika kijiji cha Madongo. Mzee Hekima alijaliwa na Mola na watoto wengi wavulikya magashi. Nao waliwalea wanao vyema kwa kuwalisha vizuri vyakula vya tumboni na kiroho. Usisahau kuwa Mzee Hekima alikuwa tajiri wa mali na moyo. Mamia ya wanakijiji waliofika kwake kumjulia hali aliwasubilia kwa vyote. Kuna wale waliopewa riziki kwa kulima shambani, wengine kufagia boma lake bora tu kila mmoja alifaidika na mkono karimu wa bwana huyu.

Kati ya watoto wake wengi, Mzee Hekim alimpenda zaidi kitindamimba na alimpendelea kwa mengi. Kutokana na hali hii kitindamimba alianza kujivuna na kuwadharau wakubwa wake. Alionyesha kiburi, unyeti na dharau. Mwishoni tabia yake ilianza kuingia ufa. Mambo yalizidi kuzorota zaidi kiasi cha mtoto huyo kuwa mbaya zaidi. Wazazi walipogundua uovu wa mtoto huyo, mambo yalikuwa yamekwisha kithiri. Baada ya kujaribu kulihali kumwongoa na kulemewa walimtupa jongoo na mti wake.

Kila mmoja aliepuka kitinda mimba huyu kama kinyamkera. Hakushirikishwa michezoni wala katika matembezi. Ajabu ni kwamba, hakurekebisha tabia yake hali aliendelea kuwa mkaidi zaidi kuliko hata mkia wa nguruwe. Mzee Hekima naye alizidi kuzeeka na kugotika kadiri siku zilivyosonga.

Mzee Hekima alianza kuwausia wanawe. Aliweka kila kitu wazi. Alisema pesa zote za banki zingegawanywa kwa wanawe wote wa kiume. Nayo mali yaliyohaki yagawatywe kulingana na umri wa kila mrithi. Jukumu la uandishi wa wosia huu lilipewa kitindamimba. Naye akawa amepata nafasi murua ya kufanya hila. Alijiandikia nafasi kubwa ya urithi wa mali ya baba yake. Hekima alipoaga dunia yule kitindarnimba aliazimia kuuza shamba lile. Hapo alimtafuta mnunuzi na kumpata Mzee Kolera. Walipalana bei lakini hakulipwa pesa taslimu ila waliandikiana mkataba

Nakumbuka siku moja, mtoto wa Mzee Johara alienda mtoni kuogelea akiwa ameandamana na marafiki zake. Mto Kingo ulijulikana kwa kuwa na mamba wengi waliowashambulia wakazi wa eneo hilo. Kwa bahati mui mwanawe Mzee Johara alishikwa mgutini na maka Alivutwa na kuelekezwa kwenye maji makuu. Watoto wenzake walipoona hivyo walipiga usiahi kwa hofu waliomba msaada. Kwa bahati nzuri, wana wawili wa yule Mzee Hekima walikuwa wakipita njia karibu na mto huo. Wakasikia mayowe na kelele. Basi bila kulimatia wakaenda haraka kuangalia kelele zilikuwa za nini.

Baada ya kufika mtoni, waliambiwa habari za mtoto yule aliyechukuliwa na mamba. Walipotupa macho walimwona mtoto yule wa Mzee Johara akizamia lulu majini. Bila chelewa chelewa, vijana hawa walivua nguo zao na wakajitosa majini na kumfuata mamba yule. Walishambulia mamba yule kwa sime zao mpaka akamwachilia mtoto yule wakamchukua na kuogelea naye hadi ufuona mato. Hapo walimpa ganga ganga za mganga Anazomwacha mgonjwa na matumaini.

Mtoto huyo alikuwa amejeruhiwa vibaya mguuni kutokana na kuumwa kwa meno ya mamba. Baada ya kumpa huduma ya kwanza, waliamua kumpeleka kwa baba yake ili kumsimulia kisa chote. Mzee Johara alifurahishwa sana na kitendo cha watoto hao na akawaombea dua ya Mola awasaidie.

Baada ya kuwapa makaribisho aliamua kuwasindikiza wana wale wawili huku yeye akielekea kumlipa kitindamimba pesa zake. Basi wote watatu waliaondoka Wana wale walienda nyumbani naye Mzee Johara akielekea kumlipa ujira wake kitindamimba. Mzee Johana aliwaomba kwa unyenyekevu waandamane naye ili wawe mashahidi wake. Vijana wale wawili walikubali bila ya wao kujua ni shamba gani lililokuwa likiuzwa.

Mzee Johara na ndugu wale wawili walipofika kwa wenyeji wake, alianza kuwaelezea jinsi walivyopatana bei ya shamba. Ndugu wale wawili walishtuka sana na kukasirika. Papo hapo wakamweleza Mzee Johara kisa chote kuanzia mwanzo hadi mwisho. Mzee Johara kusikia hivyo alighairi kununua shamba hilo. Ujanja wa kitindamimba kikagonga mwamba.

Maisha ya binadamu huimarika kutokana na urafiki. Urafiki hufanya watu wanaopendana kuwa na mvuto fulani ambao huwapa kiu ya kutaka kuonana mara kwa mara. Umbali kwao huwa si chochote si lolote. Watafanya juu chini ili waweze kuwasiliana hata kama ni kwa kupigiana simu, kuandikiana nyaraka au hata kutembea kilomita nyingi mradi tu wakutane.

Manufaa ya urafiki ni gani? Nia kuu ya urafiki ni kuondoleana ukiwa, kuliwazana, kubadilishana fikira na kusaidiana wakati wa shida. Pasi na urafiki duniani kungejaa madhila, uhasama, zahama na maovu mengine ya kukiriha moyo.

Urafiki bora ni ule wa kujuliana hali, kufaana wakati wa dhiki, urafiki wa kupigiwa mfano yaani ule wa kufa kuzikana. Hata hivyo urafiki huu umeadimika kama milango ya pikipiki. Ni nadra na adimu kumpata rafiki shakiki. Kila mtu sasa ameanza tu kuamba ngoma akivuta kwake. Ya mwenzake hayamghasi, ni kanda la usufi ati.

Kile ninachojaribu kusema ni kuwa, urafiki mwingi ni ule wa juu juu. Ule wa nipe nikupe. Iwapo wewe ni maskini, ole wako! Watakwambia kuwa mkono mtupu haurambwi na utapewa kisogo. Ukiwa tajiri pia huna bahati. Utaandamwa kama nzi na kugandwa kama kupe na wanaotaka kikalia mrija. Siku ya kuonyeshwa mlango kazini watakuhepa labda uauniwe na ndugu yako

Kulonga mithaki urafiki mwingi ni ule wa idumakawili Ni ule wa kulana kivuli. Wale wanaojitapa hadharani kuwa marafiki zako shakiki ukiwapa siri, kesho utazisikia barazani. Ulimthamini lakini yeye hafai ni mfano wa kikulacho ki nguoni mwako. Ni makauleni wakubwa. Ni vycina kila mmoja ajue kuwa, ule urafiki wa zamani wa kufaana kwa jua na la mvua umezikwa katika kaburi la liliwala.

Kinyume na vile watu wengi wanavyodhaniás urafiki unahitaji uvumilivu, uaminifu, ukarimu, upendo, usamehevu na kujitolea mhanga kama kukuahatarishaye maisha yake ili kumwokoa kifaranga.

Je, urafiki una faida? Ndiyo. Kumbuka ukiwa na marafiki huwezi kuteseka sana. Wahenga walisema kuwa mtu ni watu na hakuna mtu anayeweza kujitosheleza. Majanga yapo. Mengine makubwa yanayozidi uwezo wa mtu binafsi. Chukulia kwa mfano shughuli za mazishi. Utachimbaje kaburi na ubebe jeneza peke yako. Hapo ndipo utahitaji marafiki.

Tujue kuwa tuko pia na urafiki wa kuharibiana tabia. Kwa mfano watu wasio na msimamo kimaisha kazi yao ni kufuata wengine kama bendera. Tumewaona wengi wakijitoa kikaangoni na kujiingiza motoni bila kujali. Hawa sana sana ni wale ambao huwa hawaambiliki wala hawasemezeki. Hata wakiambiwa wasitembee na watu waovu kwa kuwa samaki mmoja akioza na mtungo pia huwa hawasikii. Huonyesha kiburi na unyeti mwishowe huishia kujipalia makaa.

Tamu ikizidi sana huwa sumu. Nao-urafiki ukizidi sana wakati mwingi huwa na madhara yake. Unajikuta kwa kuwa ati mtu ni rafiki yako, unaamua kuchukua hatua bila hata kumhusisha. Kumbe uamuzi uliochukua ni sumu kwake.

Questions

Read the passage below. It contains blank spaces numbered 1 to 15. For each blank space, choose the BEST alternative from the choices given.

One afternoon, I went to a neighbouring school playground to    1    a football    2    as I sat down. I asked one of the boys what the    3     were.
“They are leading us with 3-0!”
I looked at the boy and asked, "    4     ? And you don't look discouraged?" "Discouraged?" The boy asked with a      5     look. "Why should I be discouraged    6    the referee     7     not blown the    8    whistle? I have confidence    9    our team and our managers. We shall definitely    10   !”
Truly, the match ended with a score line of 5-4 in    11     of the boy's team! He waved at me gently with a beautiful smile    12     he left.
