1. Read the following passage and answer the questions:

As I settled down to write a letter to my pen friend, my thoughts drifted to the few days that she had spent with me. I could not help smiling at the hilarious situation that had occurred because she was unable to communicate with the locals here. Coming from a rural province in India, Sharin was unaccustomed to the lifestyle in Singapore. As I was in school in the daytime, Sharin was left to explore the country on her own. Armed with a map and a lot of coins for travelling on the bus and train, Sharin decided to travel from one end of Singapore to another. In this way, she would be able to see more of the city state and its people. She did not mind as she was an independent person. Thinking that the bus service worked exactly like the ones in her hometown, Sharin shouted for the driver to stop when she wanted to alight. Imagine the stunned expressions on other passengers‟ faces and the look of disbelief on the bus drivers‟. Not only was she unable to alight, some people started whispering and pointing at her. I burst into hysterical laughter when she related the incident to me. She was so humiliated that she immediately got off at the next stop and took the train back to my house instead. Consoling her, I promised to be her companion during the weekend. Sharing spent the next few days in my house watching television until I was free to take her out.
