The pollution inhaled in the past mainly from industrial areas is still causing harm
today but the temporary experience of cleaner air brought about by widespread
lockdowns may offer lessons for the kind of world we want to build after the
Covid-19 pandemic. From China’s Hubei province to industrial northern Italy and
beyond, pollution levels have plummeted as lockdowns aimed at slowing the viral
spread have shuttered businesses and trapped billions of people at home. The air
pollution index (API) in India, where air pollution among the world’s worst, was
reported to be at its best when the people there couldn’t believe their eyes after
being able to witness the sight of the majestic Himalayas from where they live!

The current dry season has forced several states in Malaysia to carry
out water rationing. To ensure there are no water shortages in the coming
years, the federal government has decided to find ways to solve the
problem. One step is to look into the possibility of turning seawater into
fresh water as other countries are doing. This could be considered a long-
term solution to meet high demand for water in the industrial sector. As for
domestic use, every state will be required to source water from rivers.

6. What is the government’s plan to overcome water shortages in the future?

A. To obtain help from countries to process seawater.

B. To get water from rivers for household consumption.
C. To start water rationing during the dry season.

D. To reduce water usage in the industrial sector.

Incineration may speed up the process of overcoming the countless piles

of waste in this world. When compared to other modern waste disposal methods
such as recycling or reusing the old items, lighting up a fire and throwing
everything on it is cheaper and quick. It is undeniable that by doing so, the smoke
with various pollutants shall be released to the atmosphere and pollute the air.
Clearing a small proportion of domestic garbage through incineration may not
seem harmful when it is done alone. What if the people in a huge neighbourhood
are doing the same thing when they wish to get rid of their waste? Everyone can
play a part in reducing the harm done to the world by knowing the impact it made
when burning even a small amount of garbage. Therefore, the public should
realize that even though practicing the 3Rs is a tedious and a slow process, it
shouldn’t be an excuse for everyone to pollute the air by opting for incineration.

7. What should the public do to avoid polluting the world more?

A. The public should consider to use incineration method to clear the garbage.
B. The public can reduce the amount of pollutants released from incineration
method by burning a small amount of garbage.
C. To avoid polluting the world more, the public should opt for the modern
methods in clearing the waste.
D. To avoid polluting the world more, the public should know the impact of their
actions.

[Time suggested : 50 minutes]
Question 26 to 31 are based on the following passage.
1 When will I be released? I have another 3 months to serve until I am
freed. I have messed up with my life and true enough, my mother’s curse
really worked. That must have been because I have hurt her feelings a lot.

2 My father had left my mother when she was pregnant with me. She
played the role of a single parent very well until I started mixing with some 5
notorious boys in school. She warned me to keep away from them but I
insisted that they were part of my life. I idolised them because they always
had the money to spend and used expensive handsets.

3 My mother worked as an operator in a small industry and earned

very little. We lived from hand to mouth. I was never given any luxury and I 10
always blamed her for it. I felt that she did not work hard enough to give me
the luxury. At that time, I despised her so much that I even told her that I
hated the sight of her. Then, she found a second job as a washerwoman in
the neighbourhood.

4 I started stealing money from her savings and once I even pawned 15
her only wedding ring to get extra pocket money to impress my rich friends.
I spent them at expensive ‘Nasi Kandar’ restaurants. At school, I became
famous among friends and started missing classes to join my friends at
shopping complexes. Slowly, I stopped going to school and when Mother
found out, she scolded and even begged me to go back to school. I told her 20
to get lost and packed my bags to leave home. She cried and promised to
provide me with all the luxury I needed. I went near her and slapped her on
her face. That was when she cursed me that I would regret one day when
the whole world would turn its back on me.

5 I left home and found myself a job as a foreman. The boss sacked 25
me when I started laying hands on his income. Then I became a contract
worker and stayed with the other contract workers. The workload was too
heavy for me and I started playing truant from work. I got myself fired again
and had no home to stay. I went back to my so-called friends for money
and shelter but they turned me down and some did not even acknowledge 30
me. They stared at me as if I was a filthy thing. I was hungry and became
desperate. I needed food, money and shelter but I didn’t want to return to
my mother because I was ashamed of myself.

6 I had to do something. I walked up to the wet market in town, hoping

to get myself a job there. I saw an Indian lady with things in both hands 35
walking alone towards her car. An evil idea struck my mind. She had her
purse her armpit. I walked slowly towards her, snatched her purse and fled.
1119/2 © 2020 Hak Cipta SMK Abu Bakar SULIT
I could hear her shouting for help and some even chased after me but I
SULIT 1119/2

11

managed to escape. I hid myself at a construction site and I rummaged

through the contents of the purse. She had almost RM200.00 and that kept 40
me alive for another twelve days.

7 I became excited because that was easy money and I felt like doing
it again. This time I went to the Mega Mall and tried my luck. I snatched a
Chinese lady’s handbag and tried to flee but this time I was unlucky. Some
passers-by and the security guard managed to get me. I got myself behind 45
bars, sentenced for a year.

8 I truly regret it now. Once I am out, I want to go back to my mother. I

need to take care of her. I will go back to school and at the same time I will
work to cope with our expenditure. I will do well in school and further my
education. I want to be an engineer and make my mother proud. I will get 50
her everything, everything that she needs. I need to get out of this place.
Mother, please forgive me.

WHAT HAS HAPPENED TO LULU?

What has happened to Lulu, mother?

What has happened to Lu?
There's nothing in her bed but an old rag-doll
And by its side a shoe.

Why is her window wide, mother,

The curtain flapping free,
And only a circle on the dusty shelf
Where her money-box used to be?

Why do you turn your head, mother,

And why do tear drops fall?
And why do you crumple that note on the fire
And say it is nothing at all?

I woke to voices late last night,

I heard an engine roar.
Why do you tell me the things I heard
Were a dream and nothing more?

I heard somebody cry, mother,

In anger or in pain,
But now I ask you why, mother,
You say it was a gust of rain.

Why do you wander about as though

You don't know what to do?
What has happened to Lulu, mother?
What has happened to Lu?
