Buddha was born around 563 BC in Nepal. His family were nobles and warriors. They wanted him to be a
warrior, but since childhood, Buddha was quiet and thoughtful. He did not like the privileged life at his father's
palace. He found it dull. So he began to wander around the countryside, thinking deeply about the right way to
live. One day, around 533 BC, Buddha came across three men. The first was old, the second was sick, and the
third was dead. Looking at them, Buddha saw that the world was full of suffering. Could it ever end?
Then Buddha met a fourth man: a Hindu monk who lived by begging. The monk was calm and serene, so
Buddha decided to try living like him. Buddha traveled through India, studying with Hindu teachers.
Nevertheless, their religious ideas did not satisfy him.
Buddha also spent time alone, thinking and meditating. In 528 BC, he was sitting under a tree when he
suddenly felt he understood suffering. It was caused by people themselves! If they lived better lives, it would

The following text is for questions 24 to 26.

Building a pyramid was an enormous project. The largest, the Great Pyramid of King Khufu, measured an
astonishing 482 feet (147 meters) high. That's 50 stories high! Thousands of laborers worked for years to build
it. They cut millions of huge stone blocks. These blocks could weigh as much as 33,000 pounds (15,000
kilograms)! The laborers dragged them up earthen ramps using ropes, wooden rollers, and muscle power.
The pyramids'shape developed from box-like brick tombs, built one on top of the other. The first true
pyramid was designed for the Egyptian king Sneferu, who died in 2551 BC. Workers laid stone blocks on a
square foundation, then added layers on top, each smaller than the one below. They covered the resulting
stair-step shape with stone slabs to create smooth, sloping sides.
Inside, each pyramid had rooms for the dead person and for the treasures to be used in the afterlife.
Entrances were hidden by secret passages and doors. Even so, most pyramids were looted by grave robbers.
The robbers found most of the hidden rooms and stole the treasures.

Sunday, June 14th, 1942

On Friday, June 12th, I woke up at six o'clock and no wonder, it was my birthday. But of course I was not
allowed to get up at that hour, so I had to control my curiosity until a quarter to seven. Then I could bear it no
longer, and went to the dining room, where I received a warm welcome from Moortje (the cat).
Soon after seven, I went to Mummy and Daddy and then to the sitting room to undo my presents. The first
to greet me was you, possibly the nicest of all. Then on the table there were a bunch of roses, a plant, and
some peonies, and more arrived during the day.
I got masses of things from Mummy and Daddy, and was thoroughly spoiled by various friends. Among
other things I was given camera obscura, a party game, lots of sweets, chocolates, a puzzle, a brooch, Tales
and Legends of the Netherlands by Joseph Cohen, Daisy's Mountain Holiday (a terrific book) and some money.
Now I can buy The Myths of Greece and Rome - grand!
Then Lies called for me and we went to school. During recess, I treated everyone to sweet biscuits, and
then we had to go back to our lessons.
Now I must stop. Bye-bye, we're going to be great pals!
