English Questions and Answers - Grade 6 Mid Term 1 Exams 2023 Set 5
Read the passage below and answer questions 1 to 4.
Martin burped loudly at the table. Father chuckled. Grandma shook her head disapprovingly.
"Martin!" His mother growled, eyeing her husband grumpily as well. She had quite had enough of this behavior, and decided to finally fix it. He burped again and then he wiped his mouth on the table cloth. "Man I am so charming!" He chuckled.
"Martin unless you want to do the laundry and you want to start eating out of a dog's bowl, I suggest you find some manners." "Like what? Martin groaned, leaning on the table with both elbows. "Elbows off the table." Martin lifted his elbows and fidgeted with his napkin. "The napkin goes on your lap," mother ordered, "and no eating with your fingers."
Martin sighed and peeking out the corners of his eyes at his mom, he grabbed his spoon and started shoveling food into his mouth with his face about two inches off the plate. Speed eating was fun. He liked to see how much he could get into his mouth at once.
"Whoa there! I had no idea this was a feeding trough," mother laughed. Try using a fork, sitting up and closing your mouth when you chew. If you can't get the fork to your mouth without spilling the food on your lap, you are overloading it."
"Then it takes forever to eat, and I want to go and watch TV." Martin whined. "You will eat properly, and you will stay and have a discussion with us until we are all done with our meals. This is not a
drive-through. Eat slowly and neatly, and then help me wash the dishes."
"But..." Martin began to protest.
"Dog bowl?" Mother offered.
"No, thank you." Martin said softly, which made grandma smile. Mother smiled when Martin lifted a carefully -loaded fork of food to his mouth closed. "Excellent. You might still make someone a good husband." Father cleared his throat and ate neatly, too. He didn't get a complement though.

Read the passage below and answer questions 10 to 15.
One day my mother whipped me for not taking my chores seriously. I did not clean the house properly and when she returned from the market, where she had gone to sell grocery, she could not spare me. After that, I sadly retreated to my bed and soon I was deeply asleep.
I then ran away into a very deep wilderness home far away from my parents. It was so peaceful and tranquil. For once my mother would not be there with her do's and don'ts. My life would have no sadness of any kind or so I thought.
Things however changed one afternoon when strong winds accompanied by lightning struck the ground several times. All the living things I had lived with for months retreated to their respective abodes. Rodents were the first to leave for their holes. Birds complained that their homes were being shaken and
flew away to different homes elsewhere. I was left alone and the worst happened. The final lightning
struck my home setting it ablaze
For the first time in my life I longed for home, our nice home where everyone was present. I had no choice but to go home. It took a while but as I was about to reach home my mother shook me up! I was
almost late for school.

At this moment the windows of the cottage shook violently at the loud report of a cannon that appeared almost close to the cliff. All sprains to their feet, and looking through the window saw a rocket whizzing high in the air. As Andrew and Seth rushed out to the terrance a fearful sight presented. Brightly illumined by a blue light revenues cutter lay fixed on the iron rack. A wave rolled completely over her, and at once extinguished the light, at the same moment a tremendous crash was heard as her mast fell over the side.
Without loss of time Andrew and Seth had seized two coils of rope from the cottage stores and were making their way along the cliff to the projecting point at the right entrance to the bay.
Before long the mast, with six men clinging to it was washed against the cliff exactly below the point. But by the time Andrew and
Seth arrived only one remained alive, a Negro of about fourteen, whom they rescued by means of ropes.

Alternatively, one can make a library among his or her friends and exchange books. This way you will buy fewer book but end up reading very many.
Knowledge, so they say is power. We can only write or talk what we know. The more we read, the brighter we get. Reading is a hobby that can keep us from bad company and peer pressure.
