4. Read the following passage carefully and then answer the questions that follow.

The quality of healthy in Tanzania has currently been improved. Better curative and preventive health
services are offered. There are now better and advanced medical equipment in the regional and referral
hospitals that the way the situation was in the past. He medical personnel of the present time are more
quipped than the previous time.

At the preventive level the government has improved nutrition, the environmental health, reproductive
health like material and children health, control of infectious disease like HIV/AIDS, cholera,
Tuberculosis, leprosy and diarrhea.
The accessibility of the Tanzania public to medical services is now better than the previous days. It
has been so because the government has improved and expanded the transport system in different part
of the area. In addition to that more government and private health centres have been built in different
parts of our country for people to have access to. With these efforts, the provision of medical services
has become more encouraging than it was before.

Despite of the fact that provision of health services are encouraging, still the distribution of quality
health services in Tanzania is very poor. Most of the health centres with the highest quality are still
concentrated in towns and cities. In rural areas the government has built some health centres but many
of them suffer from inadequate supply of medicines and medical personnel.

COMPREHENSION
1. Read the following passage carefully and answer the questions that follows
The Maasai of east Africa live in land with plenty of lions. They keep large herds of cattle and so
they are naturally enemies of lions. Every young Maasai tries to show how courageous he is. If he
kills a lion, he smears its Blood on his spear and his friends consider him to be a brave man. A
Maasai who kills a lion is considered a real hero.

The killing of a lion must be done in a special way. A group of twenty or thirty young Maasai looks
for a lion and comes up to it from all sides. They wear no clothes or ornaments that might hamper
them. They carry only their spears and shields. As they see a lion, they immediately throw their
spears at it, usually killing it before it can attack them. The first spearman to spread blood on his
spear is considered to be the killer of the lion.
