Kama kuna kitu ambacho kila mtu hupata kwa kiwango sawa, ni wakati. Kila mtu hupata saa ishirini na nne kwa siku. Haijalishi kama yeye ni tajiri au maskini, wa kiume au wa kike, kijana au mzee. Tofauti kubwa hutokana na namna tunavyoutumia wakati wetu. Je, wewe mwanafunzi unafaa kuutumiaje wakati wako hasa wa likizo? Awali ya yote, utumie wakati wako kuujenga uhusiano wako na Mungu. Hakikisha kuwa unasoma mafundisho kuhusu Mungu na kupiga dua kila wakati ili Jalali akujaalie fanaka kochokocho katika maisha yako. Hakikisha kuwa unaenda maabadini na kushirikiana na wenzako kumpa Mola sifa na kumshukuru. Aisee, mwomba Mungu si mtovu. Mungu ndiye atakayekusaidia kufaulu maishani.
Vilevile, ni jambo la busara kuwasaidia wazazi wako katika shughuli zao. Ni vyema sana kumwaviza mama yako katika shughuli mathalani kuosha vyombo, kufua nguo na kuzipiga pasi, kucheza na wanuna wako na kadhalika. Ikiwa baba yako ana duka pale sokoni, enda dukani pale ili umpige jeki katika shughuli za uuzaji. Unaweza kumsaidia kuwapa wateja bidhaa na kupiga hesabu. Huko kuwasaidia kutakuimarisha katika njia anuwai. Hewaa! Utaelewa kuyafanya mambo mengi ambayo pengine hukuyajua. Usisahau kuwa masomo bado yanaendelea. Hata kama umekamilisha masomo ya shule ya msingi, kumbuka kuwa elimu ni bahari. Naam, elimu haina mwisho. Endelea kusoma vitabu, magazeti na majarida ili upate maarifa chungu nzima kama mchanga wa bahari. Ukipata vitabu vya kidato cha kwanza, viinamie kama mwanasheria atafutaye neno la ushindi katika daawa. Ni nani asiyefahamu kuwa mizizi ya elimu ni michungu lakini matunda yake ni matamu?
Licha ya hayo, shirikiana na watoto wenzako katika michezo kadhaa kijijini penu. Kila unapokamilisha shughuli zako, shirikianeni kama kiko na digali katika michezo kama vile kibe, kurusha tiara, kucheza kandanda na mingineyo. Michezo hii ina faida kochokocho katika maisha. Michezo haichangii kuimarisha tu afya bali pia hukuza maadili. Mnaposhiriki katika michezo, viungo vya mwili huimarika na afya kuwa thabiti. Kumbuka kuwa afya ni bora kuliko mali? Pia, ushirikiano na umoja ujengwao wakati wa michezo ni muhimu kama dhahabu katika maisha ya kila mja. Wahenga hawakutuchezea waliposema kuwa umoja ni nguvu utengano ni udhaifu.
Aidha, jitolee mhanga na kujikaza kisabuni kuhakikisha kuwa uhifadhi wa mazingira unaendelezwa. Kuhifadhi mazingira kuna manufaa sio kwako tu bali pia kwa jamii nzima. Ukiwa na ndugu na marafiki zako, fanyeni juhudi za mchwa ili kupanda miti na kuitunza Pandeni mbegu za miti mbalimbali kisha msubiri ziote. Pandeni miche hiyo katika sehemu zinazofaa na kunyunyizia maji. Usafi wa mwili na mazingira nao una umuhimu usiopuuzika. Bidii zenu ni muhimu katika kuhakikisha kuwa mnaishi katika mazingira yaliyo safi kama msahafu. Vilevile ninakushauri uwaepuke marafiki wenye tabia mbaya. Marafiki kama hao wanaweza kukuingiza katika mtego wa utovu wa maadili. Kutangamana na watu wenye maadili ni njia mojawapo ya kuhakikisha kuwa tabia zako zinakuwa za kuigwa. Hewaa! Mtu ni utu, asiye na utu ana kutu.
Yote tisa, kumi ni kuwa jiepushe na matumizi mabaya ya mtandao. Usiwe mwenye mazoea ya kutazama runinga usiku na mchana. Filamu, picha na video chafu nazo uziepuke kama ugonjwa wa korona. Kumbuka kuwa vitu uvitazamavyo na kuvisikiliza mara kwa mara huathiri tabia zako. Mihadarati nayo ni sumu kali mno. Usijaribu hata kuionja mihadarati hiyo. Wapo wengi walioanza kutumia mihadarati kimzaha tu. Sasa hivi wanajiuma kidole na kulia kilio cha mbwa mdomo juu. Kifo nacho kimewatanulia kinywa cha mamba na kuwakodolea macho ya bundi. Ukitaka kuishi kwa miaka na mikaka, epuka matumizi ya mihadarati.

Mathayo alikuwa mwanafunzi wa darasa la saba katika shule ya Eshikalame. Alikuwa mtoto mwerevu sana. Mungu alimjalia akili za sumaku. Alinasa kila kilichofundishwa na mwalimu yeyote. Alifaulu katika masomo mengi. Wanafunzi wengi walitamani sana kuwa kama yeye. Wengi walimwendea kwa ushauri na msaada wa kimasomo. Hata hivyo, Mathayo mwenyewe hakuishi maisha ya furaha. Umaskini wao kule nyumbani ulimuudhi. Alikuwa na mzazi mmoja pekee aliyefanya kazi za kijungujiko pale kijijini ili kukidhi mahitaji ya mwanawe wa pekee. Zaidi ya umaskini huo, kilichomkasirisha zaidi ni hali ya mama yake kimaumbile. Mama yake alikuwa na jicho moja tu, alikuwa chongo. Mathayo hakutaka kabisa kujihusisha na mama yake. Alidhani kuwa wenzake walimcheka kutokana na ulemavu wa mama yake.
Katika shule ya upili, Mathayo hakuwahi kumwita mama yake katika mkutano wowote wa wazazi shuleni. Wakati wa likizo, alienda tu nyumbani kwa kukosa mahali pengine pa kuelekea. Mama alipomuuliza kwa nini wazazi hawakwenda shuleni kwa mkutano wowote, alisema kuwa walimu walitaka kuutumia muda wao katika masomo ya wanafunzi badala ya kupoteza muda wakifanya mikutano na wazazi. Mathayo aliendelea kuwa mchwa katika masomo. Alitia fora katika kidato cha kwanza hadi cha nne. Kama hakuwa nambari ya kwanza, alikuwa ya pili au ya tatu. Katika mtihani wa kidato cha nne, alipata alama za kumezewa mate. Alijiunga na chuo kikuu katika jiji moja katika nchi hiyo. Katika chuo hicho hakulegeza kamba. Alipokamilisha masomo yake, alipata kazi iliyokuwa na mshahara mzuri. Matatizo aliyopitia kitambo aliyasau kabisa.
Ajabu ni kwamba Mathayo hakutaka kabisa kurudi kijijini kule ambako mama yake aliishi. Wanakijiji walishangaa walipomwona mama yule akiendelea kuteseka katika maisha ya umaskini. Ilipotokea kuwa Mathayo ameenda kijijini, japo kwa nadra sana, hakukaa kwa zaidi ya saa nne. Alimbagia mzigo wa bidhaa na kung'oa nanga kurudi kule mjini. Mkewe alipomwuliza kuhusu wazazi wake, alisema kuwa alikuwa yatima. Alimweleza kwamba alikuzwa na kusomea katika makao ya watoto wasiokuwa na wazazi.
Siku moja Mathayo alipata ujumbe kuwa mama yake alikuwa mgonjwa, hali mahututi kule nyumbani. Aliingia ndani ya shangingi lake na kutua kijijini. Mama alikuwa hajiwezi kutokana na ugonjwa. Hakujua aingiaye wala atokaye. Kwenye meza palikuwa na barua, "Kwa mwanangu Mathayo. Mimi ninaona ni kama nitaaga dunia kutokana na ugonjwa huu. Hata kama sijakuachia chochote cha maana, ninakuachia jicho langu. Ulipokuwa mdogo, uligongwa na kijiti mkicheza na wenzako. Jicho lako liliumia kiasi cha kutoweza kuona tena. Nilijitolea kulipeana jicho langu moja ili wewe mwanangu usiwe chongo bali uyaone maisha vizuri. Hii ndiyo sababu huwa sina jicho moja mwanangu. Kwaheri ya kuonana."
Mathayo alipigwa na butwaa nusura azimie. Kwa kasi ya umeme, mama yake aliingizwa katika gari na kukimbizwa hospitalini. Mathayo aliagiza afanyiwe matibabu ya hali ya juu zaidi hadi apate nafuu. Pale kwenye pambajio, Mathayo alilia kwa kite huku akimfafanulia mkewe kisa cha maisha yake tangu mwanzo hadi mwisho.

Read the following passage and then answer questions 26 to 38.
They were yelling behind me and I was frightened. "I have to run fast." Bondi told himself. He vowed never to allow the blood thirst crowd to catch him. He flew past some hawkers; some of the hawkers dropped their goods and fled out of his way. Some courageous ones tried to throw anything they could find at him. At this time, he knew his life was hanging on a razor's edge. He knew too well that if he doesn't run very fast then the crowd would not spare him. The mob was determined to catch him. He turned right into a dark alley and the mob lost track of him. He had escaped death yet again by whisker. His speed, luck and knowledge of streets had saved his neck.
Why was Bondi running away? You see, Bondi had been walking quietly behind a young woman going as he goes about his usual business. She was smartly dressed and had a nice handbag that matched the colour of her attires. Then she tumed and saw Bondi. Maybe she thought Bondi was about to snatch her handbag, she started to shout at the top of her lungs, "Thief! Thief! Help me!" When Bondi saw her staring at him and pointing in his direction, Bondi realized she thought he was a thief. A small crowd was gathering as curious onlookers sought to satisfy their seemingly insatiable curiosity. Bondi didn't need a sixth sense to guess what was likely to happen. Knowing crystal clearly that no one would give him a chance to explain himself, he took to his heels at a dare devil velocity. He had to save his neck at all costs. Are you wondering why everyone is suspicious of Bondi? Come to think of this. A street boy, dressed in tatters, deriving his food from the garbage and of course sniffing glue! Don't you think he is scary? Nevertheless, does it make him a criminal? It is such a pity. All his friends are street children. As a matter of fact they are his only family. The terrns „father" and mother are alien to him. But why should the public treat all the street children with suspicion? Must they check their pockets every time a street child pass? Do they deserve to be an object of insults and stones? They, too, have a right to live.

Read the following passage then answer questions 39 to 50.
Although I was born and brought up in the countryside, I spent most of my time in the city. However, I have not found the city life as appealing as the countryside's. There are countless reasons why I would rather spend the rest of my life in the rural areas.
First and foremost, the clean and fresh air of the village makes one feel healthy and refreshed at all times. It is relaxing and pleasant to enjoy the pure air wafting with the exciting fragrance of fresh flowers and trees. It is possible to take an evening strollin the woods. This is unlike in the cities that are crowded most of the time. People are more worried of the traffic jam that characterises the city roads. By the time commuters get home, they are so tired that they have no time for a stroll. As a matter of fact, who would enjoy having a stroll in overcrowded streets where human beings compete with automobiles for space? Besides, the air is rather polluted hence resulting in strange ailments.
Secondly, people living in the countryside feel safer than the city dweliers. The city dwellers are in a state of fear every day. City dwellers are exposed to violent deaths caused by careless drivers and thoughtless motorcyclists. Furthermore, in the past few years, the crime rate in cities has increased to such a degree that people are afraid to even walk in the streets for fear of falling victim to a snatch thief, a gun-wielding gangster or a rapist. While there are cases of crime in the villages, they are not as serious as they occur in the cities.
In the countryside, people can walk freely and confidently both day and night without being attacked by anyone. In fact, in the streets you will come across friendly, helpful neighbours who are all smiles and full of warmth, unlike the unfriendly city dwellers. When there is a function, happy or sad, all the villagers are there to lend a helping hand: something that is quite unheard-of in the cities.
People living in the countryside are closer to nature. In the village, you are woken up by the singing of birds rather than by the irritating noise from the traffic; that is quite common in urban areas. Homes in the countryside are surrounded by nature which has a soothing effect on both the mind and the body. In the rural areas, you do not have to leave your home to feel closer to nature because here, nature comes to you. It is common to see wild animals like monkeys, hares and antelopes roaming about.
The fact that people living in the countryside are able to produce their own food makes life cheap and casy Why would someone have to buy vegetables and fruits from the grocer if he can grow his own? People eat fresh foods hence are not prone to lifestyle diseases like cancer and diabetes.
Time tends to run more slowly in the countryside which takes away a great deal of stress that is experienced by city dwellers who are always in a hurry to get somewhere.
