    Section C[25 marks ]

    Questions 26 31 are based on the following passage.The passage below describes how the writer and her sister escaped a shooting that broke

    out in her town. Read the passage carefully and answer the questions that follow.

    1 Hurry up children, your ong ngoai must be hungry by now, Mother calledout from the front room of our family home in Tay Ninh, Vietnam. She hadcarefully placed steamed rice, fried chicken and vegetables in each compartment ofthe lunch rack, all set to be delivered to ong ngoai , our grandfather. My father, astaff sergeant with the Philippine Air Force, worked as a surgical technician foreight years and had married Mother, a local girl. Because of his work, he was awayfrom home for weeks at a time. Mother was a housewife who took great care ofTrang and me. She gave us the daily noontime job of taking lunch to ourgrandfather, who lived alone in a small rented apartment.

    5

    2 Here, send the food to ong ngoai quickly. Be careful not to spill the food,she added. 103 I was six years old. Trang, my sister, who was eight years older, was

    helping me get dressed. I was excited at the thought of getting out of the house.4 Mother, ever-concerned, recited her list of reminders as she always did

    every day: Stay on the side of the road. Look both ways before crossing the street.Dont stop to talk to strangers. Come back straight to the house after you havedelivered the food. Do not stop anywhere along the way. Run along now.

    15

    5 So hand in hand, with Trang carrying the lunch rack, we scurried one blockdown the road to our grandfathers place. He was a retired judge and I was happy tosee him every day. It was he who gave me my first cac (the equivalent of cents atthat time).

    20

    6 It was 1974 and war was spreading all over Vietnam, but in Tay Ninh lifewas peaceful and continued as usual. However, on that particular day, as Trang andI made our way to grandfathers place, whizz!

    7 Duck down! Trang cried as we walked along. Stay low and take cover! 258 Ratatatatat! Somewhere in the mountains just outside town, Vietcong

    soldiers fired their flying bullets down our path. I bent so low that I actuallydragged my face along the ground as I ran.

    9 As we squatted at the side of the road, covering our heads, I started to worryabout ong ngoai . He liked his food served hot. If we did not get there on time andhis lunch turned cold - oh, I did not like the thought of it! I refused to let thisoutbreak of shooting slow us down. Lets just run for it! I said.

    30

    10 Trang suggested duckwalking down the road but it was not a good idea.After a few paces, my short little legs began cramping. We tried all the manoeuvresthat could save our lives but nothing seemed to work. We were ready to sit thingsout until the shooting was over. Then I suddenly remembered. If we ever cameunder fire, our elders had told us time after time, we should run from side to side.Bullets travel in a straight line, they said. Run in a zigzag.

    (Adapted from Readers Digest , May 2006)

    11 So taking a deep breath, we set off again, running wildly back and forthacross the road. After what seemed forever, the shooting ceased. God Almighty be

    praised, the food is still warm, was all I could say after we arrived at ourgrandfathers apartment, completely unaware of the danger from which we had justescaped. Five cents awaited each of us!

    40

    12 As an adult, I sometimes look back on that eventful day. I now know whatmy young mind could not understand then: it is impossible to go through life withouthardship and struggles being thrown at you. They come when you least think theywould, like when you are happily walking down a street and bullets start flying atyou. You can try to avoid them all you want, but as long as you are alive, they willkeep coming, from all directions. Sure, you might get wounded, but you just have to

    bandage your wounds, pick yourself up and start walking again.
