SECTION A: READING 

1.Read the following passage carefully and answer the questions that follow.

In a city, never mind what it was called, there lived a small girl of about five. The little girl had a mother and no one else. They lived together, the two of them not well, not badly, but life of some hardship. The mother was a janitor—the income was meagre, every penny had to be saved. But, the girl was fed, dressed and had shoes on her feet. And, the mother brought a lot of different goodies from the hospital—sometime candy, sometimes apples. The patients often gave her treats, especially when they were being discharged. They were too happy to bother about carrying things back and so gave them away to the little girl’s mother. They even gave away oranges. But patients who had oranges to give away were few and far between. Perhaps they went to other hospitals, or, perhaps they were discharged less frequently.

Anyhow this has nothing to do with oranges…

“We’ll still live.”the mother joked.

“We’ll still live,” the girl agreed.

Frankly speaking, the girl badly needed a wonderful blue ball, which she and her mother had seen in a toy shop. She felt she simply must acquire it for a truly happy life. If you remember what it was like when you were five, you will understand what the girl felt when the blue ball finally turned up in the girl’s hands. When the ball bounced, the little girl bounced and even mother gave a little bounce. Because happiness makes everyone bounce a bit.
