Kiswahili Questions and Answers - Grade 6 Opener Exams Term 3 2023 Set 1
Soma kifungu kifatacho kisha ujibu maswali yanayofuata.
Je, ni mambo gani ambayo yanafaa kufanywa na jamii yenu? Dini yenu hufundisha mambo gani ambayo lazima yazingatiwe? Kuna itikadi mbalimbali katika jamii yetu. Kuna itikadi ambazo ni za kidini na zingine za kijamii. Baadhi ya itikadi ni muhimu katika maisha yetu ya kila siku. Itikadi kama hizo ni zile ambazo zinakuza heshima na ushirikiano kati yetu.
Kuna jamii ambazo zinasisitiza hali ya heshima ya mmoja kwa mwingine. Nidhamu katika jamii kama hizo huimarishwa na kila mwanajamii. Vilevile, kunazo imani za kidini ambazo husisitiza maadili kati ya wanajamii wote. Maadili ni tabia nzuri za binadamu. Tabia zisizopendeza na maovu hupingwa katika mafundisho ya kidini.
Hata hivyo, kuna itikadi za kijamii ambazo hazifai hata kidogo. Si vizuri kuwa na dhana kuwa watoto wa jinsia fulani ni bora au muhimu kuliko jinsia nyingine. Watoto wote ni muhimu, wawe wavulana au wasichana. Mtoto ni baraka kutoka kwa Mungu. Mtoto ni zawadi ambayo Mungu hupeana kwa familia. Si vizuri kupewa zawadi na kisha kuidharau. Kuna watu mbalimbali ambao wametekeleza mambo mengi makubwa bila kujali jinsia yao. Kila mtu ana uwezo wake, hakuna jinsia ambayo ni dhaifu.
Isitoshe, si vyema kumlazimisha mtu kuoa ama kuolewa na mtu fulani. Aidha, ndoa za mapema hazifai hata kidogo. Je, ni itikadi gani za kidini na kijamii unazozijua ambazo hazifai?
- Ni kweli kuwa mafundisho ya kidini;
- hupingwa katika kila jamii.
- yanapinga tabia zote katika jamii.
- yanashauri kuwa tuwe na tabia nzuri.
- husisitiza umuhimu wa maovu maishani.
- Ipi si tabia ambayo huweza kufundishwa na dini kulingana na kifungu?
- uzalendo
- ushirikiano
- ukatili
- uvumilivu
- Zifuatazo ni itikadi zisizofaa isipokuwa;
- ndoa za mapema
- kuhesimu makabila mengine
- kudharau watoto wa jinsia fulani
- ndoa za lazima
- Mwandishi wa kifungu hiki anatoa ushauri gani?
- Hakuna mtoto ambaye ni bora kuliko mwingine.
- Watoto wa kike ni bora kuliko wa kiume.
- Hakuna mtoto ambaye ni muhimu katika jamii.
- Mtoto anafaa kuwa baraka kwa Mungu.
- Kulingana na kifungu hiki, ni kweli kuwa;
- Tunafaa kufuata itikadi zote kati jamii.
- Itikadi zote za kiafrika hazifai.
- Tunafaa kufuata itikadi za wazungu pekee.
- Kuna itikadi zinazofaa na zile zisizofaa.

Siku moja, saa kumi na mbili kasorobo, gari hilo la abiria kumi na wanne lilikuwa tayari kuanza safari. Baada ya wanawake saba kuingia ndani, wanaume waliongezeka hadi likajaa. Mapesa alishika usukani kisha wakang'oa nanga. Kama kawaida, gari lilipepea kama upepo barabarani huku abiria wengi wakifurahia ngoma. Mara Mapesa alifika mahali ambapo barabara ilipinda. Alijaribu kulielekeza gari kwa njia inayofaa lakini hakufua dafu. Sauti iliyosikika ilikuwa ya 'krrrrr', kisha 'ku'. Hapo ndipo mapesa alipovunjikia miguu yote miwili.
