2. READ THE FOLLOWING PASSAGE AND ANSWER THE QUESTIONS THAT FOLLOW (10MKS)

Once upon a time, Lion was very rich. He had very many cows. Every morning, he would milk
them and enjoy the milk with his family.

Hare, who had no cows of his own, started sneaking into the cattle shed long before dawn to
milk lion’s cows. By the time lion arrived, the cows would produce very little milk or none at all. Lion
started suspecting that someone was milking his cows and hatched a plan to catch the thief. So he
decided to sleep in the cowshed to see who it was that milked his cows.

As usual, Hare came before dawn and started milking the cows.

“So you are the little thief!” Lion roared in anger.

Hare did not wait to hear another word. He quickly jumped over the fence and ran very fast with the
Lion in hot pursuit. Soon Lion was almost catching Hare. Just then, Hare saw a hole under a tree and
dashed in. But he could not go deep inside as Lion had managed to grab his tail. Hare knew he had to do
something pretty fast!

“Wooi! You have missed my tail. You are holding a root! My tail is to the right,” Hare said loudly,
hoping to trick lion.

Immediately, Lion released Hare’s tail and grabbed a root which was near Hare’s tail. He then
started pulling very hard thinking it was Hare’s tail. Soon the root gave way and Lion went tumbling
backwards, a piece of root firmly held in his hand.
 Lion was very annoyed, especially when he heard Hare laughing from inside the hole. He
decided to sit there and wait in till Hare got out. After all, he was not going to stay inside the hole
forever, he concluded.

By evening, the two were exhausted. Hare was also starting to panic. He was very hungry and
was wondering what would happen if lion decided not to leave. Lion, on his part, also wanted to go
home and feed his cows.

As luck would have it, Lion saw Hyena limping by.

“Come over here, Hyena,” Lion called out. “I have some work for you.”

“I am at your service, Lion. What can I do for you?” Hyena asked as soon as he got to where the Lion
was.

“I have the thief who has been milking my cows inside this hole,” Lion said pointing at the hole. “I want
you to sit here, and when he tries to get out, catch him and bring him to me,” Lion instructed as he left
to go home.

After waiting for sometime, Hare called out to Hyena, “Hey, Hyena! You were left to guard me,
but can you see me?”

“No, I can’t see you; it is too dark inside the hole, “ Hyena replied.

“Then how can you guard me if you cannot see me, yet I can see you?” Hare asked. “Come closer and
open your eyes wide. That way you will see me.”

Hyena obliged. He got closer to the mouth of the hole opened his eyes wide. Suddenly, Hare
threw soil into Hyena’s eyes and rushed out of the hole. Hyena only heard Hare’s laughter as he
vanished into the bush. He was left wondering what he would tell Lion when they met.

2. Ufahamu (Alama 15)

Soma taarifa ifuatayo kisha ujibu maswali.

Jamii nyingi za kiafrikaziliwadunisha wanawake. Hata hivyo, kulikuwepo na baadhi ambao waliweza kuinuka na kutetea
hadhi ya wanawake katika jamii. Miongoni mwa hawa ni mekatilili wa Mennza kutoka jamii ya wagiriama.

Wazungu walipoingia katika eneo la wagiriama waliwalazimisha kutenda mambo Fulani. Miongoni mwao yalikuwa
kuwachukua wanaume wenye siha na zihi ili wakashiriki katika vita vikuu vya dunia. Wazungu pia waliwatiza kodi,
wakawafanyisha kazi za sulubu kwa ujira duni. Zaidi ya hayo, waliwateulia viongozi wa mitaa. Hali hii ilizusha
suitafahamu kati ya jamii hizi mbili.

Mekatilili wa Mendza aliwaongoza Wagiriama kupiganadhidi ya dhuluma hizi za wageni. Aliwahasamisha watu
kuchukua na kupambana na utawala dhalimu wa Waingereza. Mekatilili aliungwa mkono na wanje wa Madorika.
Waliweza kuwaunganisha watu wao kwa kutumia imani ya kiasili kuwalisha kiapo. Imani hii iliwaleta Wagiriama pamoja
dhidi ya utawal wa wageni.

Siku hizi wanawake wana nafasi sawa katika kuchangia maswala mbalimbali ya kijamii. Baadhi yao wamechukua
nyadhifa muhimu katika jamii yetu kama mawaziri, walimu, madaktari, mahakimu, waandishi, wahandisi, marubani,
makatibu wa kudumu na wengine kuchaguliwa madiwani miongoni mwa nyadhifa nyingine.

Ulimwenguni pia kumekuwepoi na wanawake waliochukua nafasi na nyadhifa kama viongozi wan chi. Margaret
Thatcher na Indira Gadhi walitawala nchi zao . Wengine ni Bi S Johnson wa Liberia na A. Merkel wa Ujerumani.

Hapa nchini tumeshuhudia mchango wa akina mama kama Bi.Machel, Bi Rice na Bi.Tegla Lorupe katika maridhiano
ya kitaifa. Kwa muhtasari, wanawake wameinua jamii kwakiwango si kidogo.
