01. Read the
following passage then answer the questions that follow:
One day when I was standard seven my fellow student called Najma told me that Basic mathematics subject is very difficult in secondary school level. This made me develop fear and totally unconfident when I joined forms, one class, this year. We conducted orientation course for about six weeks (one month and two weeks) which made us fit to be taught by using English language as the medium of instruction in secondary schools. During orientation our class master Mr Makungu advised us we should not bother whatever subjects because all subjects are simple.
Thus, I advise my fellow students who used to claim
that some subject is more difficult than other, to avoid that wrong perception
because nothing is impossible.

(a) Suggest the
title of the passage of not more than five words

orientation course carried out?
(c) Which
subject claim to be difficult according to the passage?
(d) Identify the
language which is used as a medium of instruction at the secondary level
(e) According to
your views, which subject seems to be difficult? Give reason

letter of the correct answer in the box provided (FTNA
KATAVI REGIONAL MOCK, 2018)
In order to make soap, you need raw materials like oil
and soda. You can use either vegetable oil or animal’s fats. Vegetable oil can
be obtained from palms, coconut, Soya beans, cotton seeds and whales. Caustic
soda could be bought from SIDO stores. The following are the instruction for
making soap.
First, oil is boiled in large drums; next caustic soda
solution is added into the boiling oil. The liquid gradually rises and some
bubbles are formed. When this happens some cold water and salt solution are
added. This prevents the liquid soap from spilling over and stops it from
becoming too thick.
The liquid is further boiled to produce soap and thick
oil called glycerine. Next, some salt solution is added to separate the glycerine
from the soap. Some perfumes and colours may be added at this stage.
Glycerine is removed and the soap is put in boxes to
give it a shape. It then left to harden finally. It is removed from the box and
bars. At these stages, the soap is already and can be used.

04. Read the following passage carefully
and answer the questions that follow :( FTNA
TANGANYIKA DC MOCK, 2020)
I
think Tanzania’s forests are in danger of disappearing. It is possible that
Tanzania might lose its entire forest cover in less than a century if urgent
measures are not taken to control the rate of cutting the trees down. It is
estimated that about a million acres of forest are lost each year.
Mount
Kilimanjaro has been severely affected by indiscrimination by cutting down trees and frequent bush fires. The deforestation on its slopes has probably
contributed to the melting of its glaciers. And this, I think, accelerates the
demise of the snow caps. According to the UN, Tanzania’s population may be
increasing by over two percentages per year; such an increase is likely to speed
up the rate of deforestation due to the demand for charcoal. Charcoal is the
cheapest source of energy. Not only is that but also another cause of
deforestation of Tanzania’s forest demand for firewood, timber as well as
agriculture.
Questions
(a) Answer the
following questions with reference from the passage:
(i)
Suggest
the title of the passage with one word _______________
(ii)
What
will happen if the measures will not be taken to control the rate of cutting
trees? _____________________________________________________
