Q3. (a) Read the item below and then answer the questions that follow
Watima: Good morning?
Nafula: Good morning sir.
watima: I’m looking for a good chicken, but yours don’t look too good. I’m going to have visitors, and this
being the Christmas season, I really must give them a feast.
Nafula: These are the right kind of chickens for your visitors sir. They are healthy and well fed.
Watima: On the contrary, they look underfed. Anyway, what is your price?
Nafula: It depends, I charge more for cocks; they have more meat, you know (pointing at a red cock). This one
for instance, goes for Sh. 400.00. As for the hens, I charge Sh. 250.00.
Watima: You are not serious! Much of the weight is a bundle of bones. I am giving you 150 for each hen and
Sh. 300.00 for each cock for Sh. 900.00. This will give us a total of Sh. 1,350.00.
Nafula: You know I buy and sell. I don’t get them from my shamba. Your figure does not give me any profit at
all sir.
Watima: But you also know money is hard to come by, and especially during this Christmas season. Give me a
reasonable price, unless you prefer, I go to another seller.
Nafula: Let me make it Sh. 225 for a hen and sh. 375.00 for a cock please.
Watima: It looks like you are not interested in selling your chickens.
Nafula: No, I am! Why would I be here? My children’s fees come from this business.
Watima: Okay, take Sh. 175 .00 for each hen and 325.00 for each cock.

1|Page
Nafula: No, there would be no profit for me. You can do better than that. You can surely promote my small
business. Just give me Sh. 350.00 per cock and Sh. 225.00 per hen. This would be Sh. 675.00 for the three hens
and Sh. 1,050 for the cocks.
Watima: (Doing his mental arithmetic). That’s a total of Sh. 1,725.00. Okay, at least I’ll be able to feed my
visitors. (Handing over the money) Here you are.
Nafula: Thank you. (as the seller ties them together). You are a good customer. Please come again. My nameis
Musimbi Nafula.

SECTION 1 :

Passage 1

La fête de Pâques en France est une fête de tradition catholique. Elle était selon la tradition précédée d’une
période de jeûne de 40 jours appelée « Carême ». Durant cette période, les chrétiens ne mangeaient pas de
viande, ni de plat très cher. Ils mangent plus simplement, en évitant les sucreries et les petits plaisirs. Ils
essaient également d’être plus raisonnés, plus généreux, moins centrés sur eux-mêmes.
Le jour de Pâques est le jour de la résurrection du Christ. Pour célébrer cet évènement exceptionnel, tous se
réunissent et se retrouvent autour d’un copieux repas contenant de l’agneau (symbole de l’innocence Du
Christ).
Cette fête est encore traditionnellement fêtée en France, même si, comme pour Noël, elle a souvent perdu
son aspect religieux.
La majorité des Français fête Pâques et considère cette date comme une occasion de se retrouver en famille
pour partager un bon repas. Les enfants aussi attendent avec impatience cette échéance : ils reçoivent en
général des petits cadeaux et des chocolats. Ces chocolats, coulés en forme d’œufs, de lapins et de poules,
sont souvent dispersés dans le jardin pour être retrouvés par les plus jeunes : c’est la « chasse aux œufs ».
a.Quelles formes prennent les chocolats à Pâques ? (1.5pts)

b. Qu’est-ce que le Carême ? (1pt)

c. Trouver dans le texte un synonyme de enfants. (0.5 pts)

(Le jour de la rentrée au collège, Pierre fait connaissance avec un nouvel élève de sa classe...)

Pierre :Bonjour, ça va ? Comment t'appelles-tu ?

Lucas :Bonjour. Oui ça va. Je m'appelle Lucas. Et toi ?

Pierre :Moi c'est Pierre. Bienvenue au collège Claude Debussy.

Lucas :Merci, c'est gentil.

Pierre :Tu viens d'où ?

Lucas :Je viens de province. Avant j'habitais à Limoges.

Pierre :Limoges ? C'est loin de Paris ça ! Ça doit drôlement te changer d'être ici, en Région Parisienne ?

Lucas :C'est clair. Même si Limoges est une grande ville, elle n'a rien à voir avec Paris ! Ici, tout est
immense, il y a du monde partout, les gens sont pressés,... c'est impressionnant !

Pierre :Pourquoi as-tu quitté Limoges ?

Lucas :Mon père a eu une mutation pour venir travailler à Paris. C'est une chance pour lui : il va gagner un
peu plus d'argent.

Pierre :C'est chouette ! Ne t'inquiète pas, tu vas vite t'habituer à ta nouvelle vie. Il y a beaucoup de choses à
faire à Paris, crois-moi...

Lucas :Oui, je me doute. J'imagine que les week-ends doivent être bien remplis !

Pierre :Oh oui ! Entre les magasins, les restaurants, les musées, les parcs, les piscines, les bowlings, les
cinémas, les terrains de sport,... Bref. Les activités ne manquent pas !

Lucas :C'est ce que j'ai cru comprendre...

Pierre :On pourra se faire un cinéma ou un bowling à l'occasion si tu veux ?

Lucas :OK, pas de problème. C'est sympa de ta part.

Pierre :OK. Alors on se tient au courant pour samedi prochain ? Je connais un cinéma génial qui propose
des films en avant-première le samedi après-midi. Et on ira manger une gaufre juste après, ça te dit ?
Lucas :Super ! J'ai hâte !

KISWAHILI
Karatasi ya 2
LUGHA
1. UFAHAMU
Soma makala yafuatayo kisha ujibu maswali.
Bwana Ngurumo alikuwa mlevi wa kutajika kijijini mwake. Hakuna aliyekosa kusimulia kisa cha
mzee huyu. Ngurumo hakusifiwa tu na wapiga maji wenzake kwa umahiri wake katika kuubugia uji
mchachu bali pia alisifiwa na watoto na vijana wa kijijini kwa sauti yake ya ninga hasa alipokuwa
ameonja zake mbili tatu.

Ngurumo alikuwa mfanyikazi katika shamba moja la mkwasi aliyepanda chai kwa madhumuni ya
kuiuza ughaibuni. Mshahara wake haukuwa mdogo mno, kwani ndiye aliyekuwa msimamizi wa
shamba hili. Kipato alichopata kingeweza kuikidhi familia yake ya watoto na mke mmoja ambaye pia
alifanya kazi katika shamba la mkwasi huyu.

Hata hivyo bwana Ngurumo alikuwa daima yu waya. Kila mwisho wa mwezi ulimwengu mzima
ulimtambua. Alikuwa na hulka ya kuamka alfajiri na mapema Ijumaa ya mwisho wa mwezi kuelekea
posta kuutwaa mshahara wake. Mara tu baada ya kuupokea mshahara wake, angeshika njia hadi kwa
mgema mashuhuri katika mtaa wao na kupiga kachombe kwenye vidimbwi vya pombe hadi misuli ya
tumbo lake ilipochoka na kulalamika. Baada ya kuogolea huko, Ngurumo angekuwa hana hanani na
kumrudia maskini mkewe uso kauinamisha kwa hayaturi. Nyumbani mkewe angepata kibarua kingine
cha kumuuguza simba wake kwa siku kadha kabla yeye Ngurumo hajarudi kazini. Ilimbidi mke
kuyatibu maradhi ya Ngurumo ambayo hayakuskia dawa nyingine ila mchuzi wa nyama.
Alijibadilisha kwa vyovyote vile kumtibu mumewe huyu. Hasa siku za mwanzo. Baadaye stahamala
ilianza kumwishia hasa baada ya kugundua kuwa mzigo wa malezi ya mwanawe ulimlemea yeye.
Alianza kumsihi mumewe aache mchezo huo ambao ulitishia kumfanya amwage unga wake na
kudhoofisha zaidi afya yake ambayo tayari ilikuwa inadidimia. Hata hivyo, maneno ya Ridhaa
yaliangukia moyo wa jabali lisilosikia la mwadhini wala la mteka maji msikitini. Ngurumo alikataa
katakata kuacha uraibu wake huku akidai kuwa mume asiyeonja vileo hayamudu maendeleo na
kwamba hawezi kukubali kudhibitiwa na mwanamke asilnai.

Mkewe alizungumza naye hadi alipokata tamaa na kukata kauli kumwendea mshauri aliyekuwa na
kliniki yake hapo mtaani kulilia hali yake. Mshauri huyu alipozugumuza na Bwana Ngurumo,
Ngurumo alijawa na hamaki kubwa. Akalalamika kuwa mkewe alikuwa amemvua nguo hadharani na
kuapa kumpatiliza. Jioni hiyo nyumbani mwa Ngurumo kulisikika kilio kikubwa zaidi ya kile cha
kawaida. Majirani ambao walikuwa wameizoea hali ya Ngurumo kumpiga mkewe mara kwa mara,
walikuwa wameamua kutoyaingilia masuala yasiyowahusu. Hata hivyo vilio vya watoto viliwatia
imani, wakaamua kumkabili hasidi huyu. Ngurumo alipoombwa kufungua mlango wa nyumba
alikataa, akidai kwamba haikufaa majirani kuingilia mambo yake ya unyumba. Hata hivyo baada ya
shinikizo la majirani, alifungua, akatoka na kujiendea zake na kumwacha mkewe kuwamwagia kuku
mtama. Mtima aliwaeleza majirani masaibu aliyokuwa ameyapata. Alisema kwamba Bwana Ngurumo
alikuwa ameitelekeza familia yake. Hakujua njaa wala shibe yao. Hakulipa karo ya watoto ambao
walifukuzwa shule, ulevi wa Ngurumo ulikuwa umemtia kwenye madeni mara kwa mara. Baaada ya
kusikiliza kisa cha mkewe Ngurumo, mmoja wa majirani alimshauri Ridhaa kumwendea mwajiri wa
Ngurumo ili kushtakia hali. Aliandamana na mke hadi kwa tajiri wa Ngurumo.
1
 Tajiri huyu alisikitika sana na kukashifu kutowajibika kwa Ngurumo. Alimwita Ngurumo mbele ya
mkewe na jirani yake na kumwambia kuwa ingebidi aidha akubali robo tatu ya mshahara wake
uwaendee wanawe hadi pale atakapobadilika au ajiuzulu kazi. Ngurumo hakuwa na budi. Alikubali
shingo upande kumpa mkewe robo tatu za mshahara wake kila mwezi ili kukidhi mahitaji ya familia
yake. Robo iliyobaki Ngurumo aliitwaa yeye kwa mahitaji yake binafsi. Baada ya kisa hiki cha
kufedhehesha, Ngurumo aliapa kuacha ulevi. Alimtupa jongoo na mti wake; akaacha kuandamana
na marafiki waliomhimiza kulewa kila mara. Hali ya familia yake ikaimarika, watoto wakaacha
kufukuzwa shule, naye Ngurumo siha yake ikaanza kunawiri.

A. UFUPISHO
Soma makala haya kisha ujibu maswali
Ni dhamira ya mwanafunzi yeyote kupata matokeo mazuri katika mtihani wa kitaifa punde tu anapojiunga na
shule iwe ni ya sekondari au msingi.Matokeo hayo hutokea baada ya miaka minane katika shule za msingi na
miaka minne katika shule za sekondari. Hata hivyo, punde tu matokeo yanapotangazwa, wengine hujipata
wanyonge kwa kugundua kuwa wamefeli au wameambulia nunge kwa mtihani wao wa mwisho.

Miongoni mwa mambo yanayosababisha hali kama hii ni mwelekeo mbaya wa wanafunzi katika baadhi ya
masomo. Tunajua kweli kuwa palipo na ushindani lazima kuwe na mshindi na mshindwa. Iwapo
ungemwuliza mtahiniwa akueleze jinsi anavyohisi baada ya kushindwa kwenye mtihani wa kitaifa, hatakuwa
na la ziada ila kukueleza kuwa hajaridhishwa na matokeo.

Wengine wao hata huvuka mipaka na kuyataja matokeo yao mabaya kusababishwa na vizingiti fulani au
kuwakashifu walimu kwa kudai kuwa kulikuwa na hali ya kuonewa darasani. Unapochunguza zaidi, utakuta
ya kuwa wanaodaiwa kuwa werevu ni walio stadi katika masomo ya sayansi yanayofikiriwa kuwa magumu.
Wakati wanaofikiriwa kuwa werevu wanapofanya vyema katika mitihani yao, wale wanaokisiwa kuwa
wajinga ambao wamefeli hujipata wakiomboleza kwa huzuni kwa muda mrefu.

Swali la miaka mingi kuhusu elimu limekuwa ni kwa nini wanafunzi wote hawawezi wakafanya vyema na
kufaulu katika mitihani ya kitaifa. Utafiti uliofanywa umebainisha wazi kwamba kunazo sababu kadhaa
zinazochangia matokeo mabaya.
Mojawapo ya sababu hizo, na ambayo ni muhimu sana ni ukosefu wa nidhamu shuleni. Mwanafunzi wa aina
hii hajali anachoambiwa na walimu na aghalabu muda wake mwingi unapotelea katika adhabu.

Wakati mwanafunzi anapokosa nidhamu iwe kwa wazazi au walimu wake, masomo yake huathirika. Matokeo
yake katika mitihani hayatakuwa mazuri. Ni Lazima tabia ya mwanafunzi iambatane na matokeo yake.
Sababu nyingine ni mshituko unaowapata punde tu wanapoketi kwenye viti vyao kufanya mitihani ya kitaifa.
Mtahiniwa anapojikuta katika hali hii, kuna uwezekano asifaulu katika masomo yake.Kuna uwezekano wa
wanafunzi aliyefeli katika mtihani wa darasa la nane kufanya vyema katika shule ya upili na kupita mtihani
wake wa kidato cha nne. Ilibainika pia kuwa wale waliofaulu katika mtihani wa darasa la nane hulegeza
juhudi zao masomoni na huwa hawapati alama zinazoambatana na zile walizopata katika shule za msingi.

2
Sababu nyingine ya kuwafanya wanafunzi kutofanya vyema katika mtihani ni kubaguliwa kwa wanafunzi
hafifu na walimu na kukosa kushughulikiwa ipasavyo. Baadhi ya walimu wanapogundua kuwa wanafunzi
fulani hawafanyi vyema katika masomo fulani, hawatumii muda wao mwingi kuwasukuma ili kuyaboresha
matokeo. Badala yake huwashughulikia wanaoelewa haraka darasani.Kuna wanafunzi wengine
wanaochukua muda mrefu kuelewa, si ya kwamba ni wajinga, la, ni katika somo moja tu. Ni wajibu wa
mwalimu kuhakikisha mwanafunzi kama huyu anapata nafasi ya kuelewa anachofunzwa.

Wanafunzi wengine hawafanyi vyema kwa sababu wazazi wao hawamudu kuwalipia karo kwa sababu ya
umaskini, hawawezi hata kulipia masomo ya ziada kwa shule zinazosomesha wanafunzi wakati wa
likizo.Kulingana na takwimu za elimu, muda wa kawaida hautoshi kukamilisha mtaala wa masomo ya mfumo
wa 8-4-4, kwani ni mpana sana. Walimu wanaombwa kushughulikia mafunzo ya ziada.
