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.

Ni wazi kuwa
1. kama si urafiki watu hawangekuwa wakionan
2. pesa haziwezi kuwa kizingiti kwa watu ambac wanataka kuonana.
3. urafiki huumua maisha ya binadamu.
4. urafiki umeanza juzi wakati wa teknolojia mpya.

Read the passage below and then answer questions 26 to 38.

It was break time, a favourite time mostly for boys to play and do all sorts of things the classroom discipline couldn't allow them to. The girls, on the other hand, spent theirs in groups, sharing whatever whoever carried from home or one was able to buy. It was not even possible to tell, among the girls who had and who hadn't. They sat under trees scattered in the school compound and by the time the bell signaling the end of break rang, they would rise and rush into their classrooms. Among the boys, it was a totally different story.

The boys had invented what looked like a game yet it was not. As soon as the break-bell went, they shot out through the classroom doors like arrows. The run went towards where specific boys headed as already, they were known to have money and would definitely buy something. Dori sold doughnuts under the mango tree by the school hedge. It was sold on first-come-first-served basis and based on how strong you were too. There was no line to follow so if you could elbow your way through to reach Dora, you would be served instantly. Not all those who went to buy the doughnuts were certain to get. With your money, you still needed luck, strength and some push to get it, the boys seemed to enjoy it.

Immediately after buying it, the part two of the game would commence. The buyer would take off like a thief with a 'swarm' of boys in hot pursuit, with a sole mission of begging. He would cover as much a distance as he could to shake off the clumsy ones. At times, the run could cover half the school compound then, the buyer would stop abruptly. A number would be far behind, panting and checking if there was another nearer group to relocate to and that is when in a haste, the buyer would dish out one, two or three of the doughnuts to reward his friends' to share as he crammed the remainder into his mouth at ago. The sharing would be instant as they would be moving to try their luck in other groups already in flight.

This is what Juma did and he squeezed three whole doughnuts into his mouth. Ile had no time to chew them as many others were already running after Keri. It was after three or so minutes that he fell down but the others, not sure of why it had happened, burst into loud howls of laughter.

A different group, due to curiosity, immediately went to where he was lying. He looked as if he was suffocating and so they wasted no time. They carried Juma straight into the staffroom and reported that he had fallen down and had stopped talking. Knowing the mischief boys normally involve themselves in all the time, one of the teachers ordered them to take him outside under the mango tree. He quickly turned the victim to face downwards. Then, he gave Juma a gentle blow at the upper back. A ball of doughnut fell from his mouth and he started gasping for breath. In two or so minutes, his eyes opened and shock was written all over his sweating face. Immediately, the bell rang and they pupils dashed into their respective classrooms with a great lesson learnt outside the classroom.

Read the passage below and then answer questions 39 to 50

Many people have seen waste water but hardly any of them can give a proper definition of what it is. Waste water is water that is receivable by the ground and forced to flow away to a place no one cares about. However, scientifically, it's water that has gone through a process and is no longer attractive to the original user. Waste water management is the process of understanding the characteristics of water, treatment and restoring the water from available contamination.

Presently, the world faces a water quality crisis resulting from continuous population growth, urbanisation, land use change, industrialisation, food production practices, increased living standards and poor water use practices and waste water management strategies. This has a direct impact on the biological diversity. It disrupts the life support system on which a wide range of sectors from urban development to food production and industry. Waste water therefore should be managed well as even aquatic animals and those in the wilderness depend on the same source.

The United Nations wanted this improved and increase coverage in terms of access to improved toilet facilities. More attention should be paid towards ensuring that waste streams are adequately collected and treated before being discharged into the environment. Strangely, worldwide waste water treatment is failing. As a result, the majority of waste waters are discharged without any form of treatment. This spreads disease to humans and damaging lives of both plants and animals outside there.

Moreover, dirty water is a key factor in the rise of pollution in lakes, oceans and seas. This is because of increased urban population which is to double in forty years or so. Already, most cities lack adequate waste water management due to poor or lack of proper sewerage infrastructure,

Kenya's rapidly growing capital city is facing a very serious problem with the supply and quality of its water supply, forcing people to get water from unsafe and very dangerous or poisonous sources.

This is very different from early years where more than 90% of the population in Kenya's urban areas had access to clean water. Currently, it is estimated that just 50% of Nairobi's four and a hall million population residents have access to piped water. This is because of the demand which is too high to meet. It is higher than the supply due to other factors, such as population growth, inability to supply enough water, poor distribution network and climate problems.

Some Nairobi residents lament that the city receives around 50 million litres of water per day but Sadly, by midnight, it is all wasted. By morning, water is needed and this strains the source. This important to create a culture of waste water recycling so that all the wastewater can be raised.

The number of people who can define waste water
1. cannot easily be estimated.
2. is as many as those who see it.
3. is smaller than those who have seen it.
4. almost the same as those who have seen it.
Waste water is receivable by the ground because
1. no one has any use for it.
2. it can be used for irrigation.
3. it is directed there by the users.
4. the ground absorbs anything poured there.
The MAIN importance of waste water management is to
1. ensure it is disposed of far away.
2. safeguard its safety.
3. make sure it is absorbed into the soil
4. keep quantity of water on earth safe.
The water crisis currently faced by people worldwide is
1. caused by poor recycling of waste water.
2. due to consistent change of weather.
3. as a result of the reduction of water.
4. due to man's several uses of water.
If waste water is managed well.
1. there would be frequent floods during rails.
2. there would be more fresh water than needed
3. lives of aquatic and wild animals could he spared
4. there is likely to be increase in water levels.
Which of the four words below would BEST replace ‘waste' as used in paragraph two?
1. polluted
2. used
3. excess
4. recycle
Toilet facilities and industries are expected
1. use more water than other users.
2. keep using less water in their operations.
3. separate waste water from their entities.
4. improve their quality of water before discharge.
Why do you think is water treatment failing worldwide?
1. Climatic change has affected water levels.
2. Poor collection of waste water.
3. The treatment methods being used is weak.
4. Countries do discharge different amounts of waste water.
Pollution of water is expected to rise because
1. sewerage infrastructure has collapsed.
2. no one can tell if water is contaminated
3. of a lot of rural/urban migration effect.
4. chemicals for water treatment is becoming scarce.
Currently, the number of people in Nairobi getting clean water
1. cannot be estimated due to over population.
2. could be half of the total residents.
3. is about 90% of the population.
4. more than 50% of the population.
It is expected that as the demand for sale clean water keeps increasing
1. the supply will reduce
2. more available water will be piped.
3. there will be less wastewater.
4. less people will migrate from the rural areas
The BEST title for this passage would be
1. Effect of poor waste water management.
2. How waste water is increasing in worldwide.
3. Increase of waste water in Nairobi,
4. Treatment and storage of waste water.

Yasome makala yafuatayo kisha ujibu maswali 31- 40.

Ulemavu ni hali ya kuwa na kasoro katika viungo vya mwili. Upungufu huu huchangiwa na mambo mbalimbali. Pengine mtu anaweza kushindwa kutekeleza baadhi ya shughuli za kawaida kama vile kuongea, kutangamana na wengine, kusoma au hata kujitegemea kwa mambo mbalimbali. Mara nyingi ulemavu huwa wa kudumu japo kuna ule uwezao kuisha baada ya kipindi fulani.

Baadhi ya watu hupata ulemavu kutokana na kasoro wakati wa kufanyika kuwa motto tumboni. Huenda mzazi akajifungua salama lakini baadaye akagundua kuwa mtoto wake amekosa kiungo fulani. Pia, mtoto anaweza kuendelea kukua bila kugunduliwa lakini mabadiliko yanayotarajiwa katika vipindi mbalimbali vya ukuaji yakakosekana. Hata hivyo, wakati mwingine mabadiliko yanaweza kuchelewa lakini mwishowe yakatokea tu.

Mbali na hayo, binadamu anapotangamana na mazingira yake, anaweza kuambulia ulemavu kutokana na majeraha ya viungo, ya ubongo au uti wa mgongo. Magonjwa kama vile kisukari na shinikizo la damu pia yanaweza kuchangia ulemavu. Baadhi ya watu waliokuwa wazima hivi majuzi tu wameambulia ulemavu kupitia ajali mablimbali. Ni vyema mtu ajizatiti kuepuka hali yoyote inayoweza kuhatarisha afya yake.

Unaweza kufikiria kuhusu siku uliyoteleza mlipokuwa mkicheza na wenzako, ukateguka mguu au mkono? Pengine unakumbuka namna ulivyoteseka kwa kushindwa kujifanyia mambo muhimu kama vile kuoga, kutembea kuenda haja au hata kula. Yamkini utaniambia kuwa lililokuuma zaidi ya uchungu wa jeraha hilo hilo ni kule kukosa fursa katika shughuli za kila siku. Hata wenzako walipokuzuru kukujulia hali, ulifurahi lakini ukavaliwa na ukiwa pindi tu walipokupa mgongo. Walemavu wengi hupitia hali kama hizi aushi yao yote.

Wakati mwingine watu huzitonesha nyoyo za ulemavu bila kujali hisia zao. Utamsikia mtu kwa mfano akisema, ‘Niitie huyo chongo nimtume’ au ‘Msaidieni huyo kiwete jamani.’ Sharti ieleweke kwamba walemavu ni binadamu wa kawaida na kila mtu anao ulemavu wa aina fulani. Hakuna aliye na wepesi wa kufanya kila kitu. Hata kuwa na moyo wa harara ni ulemavu mkubwa. Tukumbuke ya wahenga kuwa hucheka kovu asiyefikwa na jeraha. Watu hawa wana majina yao. Tusiwadhalilishe kwa kuwarejelea kwa maumbile yao.

Wapo wazazi wanaowaficha wana wao walemavu na hata kukosa kuwapeleka shuleni. Huu ni ukandamizaji wa hali ya juu. Mtu yeyote akipata nafasi ya kutangamana na mazingira yake ipasavyo, bila shaka atabuni njia ya kutekeleza shughuli zake kadri awezavyo. Walemavu wengine wameinukia kuwa watu wa kutegemewa sana na jamii, hata kiasi cha kuwafikia kuwafaa wale wasio na uatilifu wowote.

Kila binadamu ana haki zake. Ni vyema jamii ikubali kuwa waatilifu ni binadamu wanaohitaji huduma kama wengine wowote. Haki zao zitambuliwe na maumbile yasiwe kigezo cha kuwadhalilisha kwa vyovyote vile.

Chagua maelezo sahihi kulingana na aya ya kwanza.
1. Ulemavu ni hali ya mtu kushindwa kufanya jambo.

2. ambao si watoto kwani wamekomaa

2. Ukiwa baada ya marafiki waliozuru kuaga haraka

Soma kifungu kifuatacho kisha ujibu maswali 41 – 50.

Daktari Maluki alikaa katika chumba cha matibabu akijisikilizia muziki kwenye rukono yake. Alikuwa amefika kazini saa chache zilizopita. Akili zake zilikuwa mbali kidogo.Aliwaza kuhusu kima cha pesa na muda aliotumia kusomea taaluma hii. Akalinganisha na ‘ mshahara tonge’ aliopata kama alivyouita yeye, japo mshahara wenyewe ulikuwa wa kuliliwa ngoa na akina yahe. Aliona kweli kwamba dunia haina huruma. Alipiga darubini na kuwaona jinsi viongozi wakuu walivyojilimbikizia donge nono licha ya kuwa walifanya kazi kwa muda mfupi sana.

Baada ya kutia na kutoa, aliibuka na uamuzi aliohisi kwamba ungemfaa bila ‘kuwaathiri sana’ waliosaka huduma yake. Kwanza, yeyote aliyesaka huduma yake angelipa kifunguamkoba cha shilingi elfu mbili ili apate nafasi ya kumwona. Maadamu, alikuwa daktari mkuu, uamuzi wake haukupingwa sana pale hospitalini. Si kila mmoja anafahamu vyema kuwa mkono mtupu haurambwi? Tena yeye Daktari Maluki hakumwalika yeyote kuja kumwona. Si wanaletwa na shida zao tena kwa hiari yao?

Mradi huu ulifanikiwa sana na kumfurahisha Daktari Maluki. Sasa kipaji kilionekana kumnawiri wakati wote akiwa kazini. Aidha, aliiraukia kazi mapema sana ili aweze kuwahudumia wagonjwa wengi kadri ilivyowezekana. Kufanikiwa kwa mradi huu kulimfanya azuke na mwingine. Alifungua duka kubwa la dawa mkabala wa hospitali ile. Wagonjwa waliokuwa wakija kwa matibabu walikuwa wakipewa dawa dukani pale. Serikali ndiyo iliyolaumiwa kwa kukosa kuleta dawa hospitalini. Lakini sikwambii kuwa dawa zizo hizo zilizokuwa halali na haki yao ndizo walizozilipia pale dukani.

Daima dawamu mbio za sakafuni huishia ukingoni. Siku moja, wasamaria wema walikuja na mgonjwa aliyehusika katika ajali ya barabarani. Alikuwa akivunja damu sana hivyo basi alihitaji kushughulikiwa kwa haraka. Daktari aliitwa lakini hakubanduka pale kitini mwake. Alitaka kujua ni nani angegharamia matibabu. Wasamaria wema hawakutaka kufanya hiyo maadamu hawakuhusiana na mwele yule kwa damu wala usaha. Basi mgonjwa akaachwa kuendelea kuvunja damu.

Watu waliokuwepo walishauriana na kuafikiana kuchanga angaa kifungua mkoba ili mgonjwa ahudumiwe. Hata zilipotosha walimwendea mgonjwa ili wampeleke kwa daktari. Lo! Walishangaa walipogundua kuwa mwili wake ulikuwa u baridi tayari. Daktari alitia fulusi kibindoni na kuagiza aletwe. Alipompimapima, aligundua kuwa amekata kamba. Hata hivyo, alivutiwa na jingine. Ni uso wa mtu aliyemfahamu sana. ‘Haiwezekani......mama........ mam....’ Daktari akazirai.

Kumbe mamaye Maluki alikuwa amekuja kumzuru mwanawe mjini alipopigwa dafrau na gari kabla ya kufika kwa mwanawe. Sasa alikuwa kaenda jongomeo baada ya kunyimwa huduma na mwanawe aliyemzaa, akamlea na kumsomesha kwa shida. Ama kweli, kigumba ni kwa nguruwe, kwa binadamu ki uchungu.

Kulingana na aya ya kwanza, Daktari Maluki
1. aliketi ofisini kusikiliza muziki kwenye redio
2. alizingatia sana muziki wa rukono yake
3. hakuwa amekaa sana baada ya kufika kazini
4. hakuwa na hamu ya kuwahudumia wagonjwa.
Kwa nini Daktari Maluki alijipata akiwaza?
1. Alihisi kuwa malipo yake hayakulingana na hadhi yake kikazi.
2. Alitumia pesa na muda mrefu kusoma kuliko wenzake.
3. Mshahara wake ulikuwa ukililiwa ngoa na kina yakhe.
4. Alitaka kuwa kiongozi wa serikali apate donge nono.
Kulingana na aya ya pili
1. waliotafuta msaada kwa daktari hawakuathirika kwa uamuzi wake
2. nafasi ya Daktari kazini iliufanya uamuzi wake kufuatwa bila swali
3. mtu akiwa na shida hafai kupewa hiari ya kuwa na usemi wowote
4. mtu akitaka msaada bila kutoa chochote hafai kuhudumiwa popote.
Kunawiri kwa kipaji cha Daktari Maluki ni ishara kuwa
1. watu sasa wameanza kuja kwake kwa hiari yao
2. kuongezewa mshahara kazini kumempa raha aliyotamani
3. huduma anayotoa kwa wateja ni bora kuliko awali
4. shughuli ya kifisadi aliyoanza inampa kipato alichotamani.
Si kweli kusema kuwa
1. Daktari alipofika kazini mapema aliwajali wagonjwa
2. Daktari alianzisha biashara karibu na hospitali aliyofanyia kazi
3. watu walilipia ada kwa sababu ya kukosa hiari
4. wagonjwa walipata baadhi ya dawa pale hospitalini.
Chagua sifa za Daktari Maluki kulingana na makala haya.
1. Mzingatifu na mkatili.
2. Fisadi, asiye na utu.
3. Katili na mwenye bidii kazini.
4. Mlafi na anayetafuta kutambuliwa.
Kwa nini Daktari hakubanduka kitini alipoitiwa mgonjwa?
1. Alikuwa amezama mawazoni.
2. Hakujua kuwa mgonjwa alikuwa hatarini.
3. Hakuwa na hamu ya kazi siku ile.
4. Mgonjwa hakuwa amelipiwa ada iliyohitajika.
‘Hawakuhusiana na mwele yule kwa damu wala usaha’ ina maana kuwa
1. wasamaria wema hawakujuana na mgonjwa
2. daktari hakutaka kujihusisha na Mjeruhiwa
3. wasaidizi hawakuwa wa nasaba ya mjeruhiwa
4. wasamaria wema hawakuwa na uhusiano na Daktari.
Kilichochangia kifo cha majeruhi ni
1. kutelekezwa
2. kukosa kufungua mkoba
3. kuchelewa kufika hospitalini
4. kupewa matibabu yasiyofaa.
Aya ya mwisho imetufahamisha kuwa
1. mtu anapoadhibiwa kwa makosa yake hafai kuhurumiwa
2. mtu akitendewa dhuluma atendeazo wengine hawazii matendo yake
3. mtu anapotendewa uovu uo huo aliozoea huona uchungu sana
4. Mtu anaweza kufurahi anapowadhulumu wengine lakini adhulumiwapo hivyo huona uchungu.
