Jack was stranded. Edward Island was too small and too deserted for one person
to roam about in. It all began when he was fishing alone near some islands in the
South China Sea. As the sun rose higher, he realized that a strange sputtering noise
was coming from the engine. To his horror, it gave one last sputter and died. During
that time, he was not too worried. Undoubtedly, a boat would come by and rescue
him. So he sat patiently, waiting to be rescued, as his boat drifted about aimlessly.
It soon turned night. Rain poured down in heavy torrents. The sea became wild
and choppy. His boat was rocking back and forth. Finally, a huge wave approached
and this boat capsized. He saw land and swam towards it. As he stumbled on the
reassuring ground, his knees gave in and he collapsed. He awoke with the sun’s rays
glaring into his sleepy eyes. He realized that he was stranded on a deserted island.

Princess Diana was an iconic figure of the late 20th century. During her life she
was often said to be the most photographed person. She was also admired for her
charity work; in particular her work with AIDS patients and supporting the campaign
for banning landmines.
Diana grew up in the family home of Park House, before moving to Althorp in
1975. She did not shine as a student, but did well in music and ballet. When she met
her future husband, Diana was working as
a part-time assistant in a nursery school in London.
In 1981, Diana married Prince Charles. During their marriage they had two sons,
Prince William and Prince Harry. However, not long after, strains started to appear in
the marriage and under much publicity the marriage broke up leading to a divorce in
1992. During this period Diana was said to have suffered various health problems,
such as bulimia and depression.
As Princess of Wales, Diana was expected to take part in various official
engagements, such as the opening of hospitals. This provided a natural outlet for her
to become involved in various types of charitable work. In 1987, Princess Diana was
one of the first well-known celebrities to be photographed with a victim of AIDS. This
was important in changing attitudes to the disease. At that time, many thought the
disease could spread by touch.
Shortly before her death, Princess Diana met Mother Teresa. Mother Teresa said,
“Diana is my daughter.” With utmost humility Diana said, “I am very, very small
Mother Teresa.”

Aristotle was a great Greek philosopher. His father was a physician (doctor) to
King Amyntas of Macedonia.
As a boy, Aristotle probably watched his father treating patients and making
medicines from parts of plants and animals. From this, Aristotle may have gained his
interests in nature study, biology and anatomy.
Aristotle was away from Athens for twelve years. First he went to Assos, to the
court of Hermias of Atarneua, part of what is now Turkey. Here he studied politics
and biology, taught pupils and advised the rulers.
During this time, Aristotle carried out many observations and studies on nature,
especially fish and seashore creatures. He cut them open, identified their parts and
organs, and suggested what these might do.
This method of working was very unusual for the time. Most of his colleagues did
not ‘get their hands dirty’. They were thinkers, not doers. They rarely carried out
tests, or observed the real world closely, or made records of what they saw. Aristotle
was establishing a whole new tradition, which for us today, is a central part of
science.
Adopted from: Steve Parker, Great Scientists Aristotle, London, Chrysalis Books PLC, 2003.

This text is for questions 31 to 34.
Once upon a time there were two brothers; one was called True, and the other
Untrue. True was always upright and good towards all, but Untrue was bad and full of
lies, so that no one could believe what he said. Their mother was a widow, and hadn’t
much to live on; so when her sons had grown up, she was forced to send them away,
that they might earn their bread in the world. Each got some provisions, and then
they went their way.
Having walked until evening, they sat down on a windfall in the wood. They were
hungry after walking the whole day and thought a morsel of food would be sweet
enough.
Untrue suggested that they eat True’s provisions first and after that his
provisions. True agreed, but Untrue was greedy. He took all the best bits and stuffed
himself with them, while True got only the burnt crusts and scraps.
The next day, True hoped that they could eat his brother’s provisions, however,
Untrue refused to share his. He ate all his provisions. When True asked Untrue for his
share, Untrue refused, he even flew into a rage and hit True, who then lost his
balance and fell. Untrue then ran away and left him.
Trying to rise, True could not see anything. He became blind! Poor True went
walking along and feeling his way through the thick wood. Blind and alone, he
scarcely knew which way to turn, when all at once he caught hold of the trunk of a
great bushy lime-tree, so he thought he would climb up into it and sit there till night
was over for fear of wild beasts. After sitting there for a while, he heard some noise.
Apparently, there were two rabbits having a conversation.
“The king of the palace has such bad eyesight,” said the first rabbit, “he can
scarcely see a yard before him.”
“Very true!” said the other rabbit, “but if only he came to this lime-tree in the
morning, while the dew is still on the leaves and rubbed his eyes with the dew, he
would retrieve his sight, as good as ever.”
After they were gone, True fell asleep as he sat up in the tree; but when the birds
began to sing at dawn, he woke up and took the dew from the leaves and rubbed his
eyes with the dew and so got his sight back, as good as it was before Untrue hit him.
Then, he went straight to the king’s palace and begged for work and was
employed on the spot. One day the king came out into the palace-yard and there
came a great hawk flying after his chicken and all the king’s men began to clap their
hands and bawl out, “There he flies!” “There he flies!” The king held up his gun and
tried to shoot the hawk, but he couldn’t see so far, so he felt great grief.
“Would to Heaven,” he said, “was there anyone who could tell me a cure for my
eyes; for I think
I shall soon go blind!”
“I can tell you one,” said True; and then he told the king what he had done to cure
his own eyes and the king set off that very afternoon to the lime-tree, as you may
imagine and his eyes were cured, as soon as he rubbed them with the dew which
was on the leaves from the morning. Since then, there was no one who the king held
so dear as True and True’s fate changed.
One day, a beggar lad came and begged for a morsel of food. True knew him at
once and saw that it was Untrue, his brother. True, who was kind-hearted, greeted
him and introduced himself, as his brother.
Untrue was surprised and embarrassed knowing that the man was his brother. He
regretted that he had done bad things to True. Because of True’s kindness, Untrue
repented.

Steps:
1. Look through your lens at words or at your fingertip. Do things look bigger through
your lens? If they do, your lens is a magnifying lens.
It will work for this experiment.
2. Go into a room that has just one source of light. On a sunny day, a window works just
fine. (Turn off any electric lights in the room.) At night, you can turn on your TV set
and use it as a light source.
(You’re going to use your lens to make
a picture of the light source. So you want a light source that will make an interesting
picture.
A picture of an ordinary light bulb is just a round spot, which is pretty boring.)
3. Stand a few feet away from your light source. Hold your lens up so light can shine
through it. Hold the sheet of paper on the other side of the lens so light shines
through the lens and onto the paper.
Page | 20
(The paper is your screen-like the screen in
a movie theater. The paper screen will reflect
a picture made of light so you can see it.)
4. Start with the lens up close to the paper, and slowly move it away from the paper and
toward the light source. Watch the pattern of light on the paper. When the lens is the
right distance from the paper, you’ll see a picture of the light source. The picture will
be upside down and backward.
5. If you don’t see a picture right away, keep trying. Try standing closer to the light
source. Or try moving the lens farther from the paper. It may take some
experimenting, but sooner or later you’ll get a picture.
