B. Reading Comprehension
“She’s coming. Hide it quickly!” The girls quickly shoved it under the table
and acted as if nothing had happened. When Miss Farida entered the classroom,
everyone stood up and greeted her. She gave them a smile. The girls noticed that
there was sadness in her eyes. Poor Miss Farida. They wished with all their hearts
that they could do something to help her, but there was nothing that they could do.
Miss Farida told them that she would miss them. She explained that she would give
anything to stay as their form teacher but she had no choice. Her father was
gravely ill. Her mother was too elderly to be left alone with him. She simply had to
return to her hometown in a neighbouring country.
Looking at the list of e-mail addresses in her hand, she promised she would
keep in touch with them. She encouraged them to study and play hard and to always
give their best. Then she got ready to leave. Our class monitor walked over to her
and handed her a small package. With tears in her eyes, Miss Farida opened it. “It’s
from our trip to Siwa last term. Look at it and remember us always,” said our
monitor. She nodded. “Thank you. I’ll frame it and put it up on the wall of my room.”
Then she left. Miss Farida is one of the best teachers who devotes all her life to
people, and she is never forgotten because of her cooperation and tolerance.

“Today is spring cleaning day !” mother announced cheerily. Gehad and her
sister groaned. This could only mean one thing -- a lot of hard work. However, they
put on a brave smile and got ready to work. They knew that their mother needed
their help. She was already working two jobs to support them and had very little
spare time. So, they quickly got on with the job. The two sisters were helpful and
grateful. They wouldn’t let their mother do the cleaning alone. Gehad opted to
clean the study while her sister was asked to clean their room. While dusting
and rearranging the book and stuff in the study, Gehad came across a picture of
her late father.
It was a picture of them having a wonderful day at the beach. Gehad felt
tears coming to her eyes. She really missed her father. When her mother came in,
Gehad quickly wiped her tears and busied herself with the shelves. She did not
want to upset her mother. She knew her mother missed him just as much as her.
Gehad suddenly went to her mother and hugged her tight. “What’s wrong, Gehad?”
asked her mother. “Nothing, I just want to tell you that I love you very much.
Don’t work too hard, Mum,” said Gehad. Her mother just smiled at her. The
mother thanked her daughters a lot. After the cleaning was over, they had a well-
deserved treat at McDonalds.

Writing
The Novel
39- “Beauty is skin deep.” How can this proverb be applied to Estella?
40- "As a child, Provis was always hungry, so he stole and begged to survive."
Do you think that a difficult childhood is an enough excuse for becoming a
criminal? Why? Why not?
Mr. Mostafa Abd El-Aal El-Leader
39. Estella was beautiful but her soul was ill. She had no heart. She was
proud.
40. No, I don't think so. Because Pip also had a difficult childhood, yet he
didn't become a criminal. One must struggle honorably until one's conditions
improve.
