Questions 1 5 are based on a letter from the talk given below.

A very good morning to the Chairman of the Residents Club, ladies and
gentlemen.
First and foremost, thank you very much for inviting me to give a talk
relating to stress. Let me introduce myself, I am Dr Tunasya, a psychiatrist from
the Pahang General Hospital.
In todays modern and fast-moving society, practically everyone is very
stressed and tensed up. The question here is what do we do when we feel
stressed?
Go for a walk, a jog or even a swim if you feel stressed out. You will find
that it makes difference and it costs you nothing. Go shopping or at least
window-shopping. It helps you to release whatever stress you have. Go from one
shop to another, maybe you will come across to something that you like, lets say
a dress or a handbag or a wallet.
A person who is very stress needs someone to talk to. You will feel good
that someone is willing to lend you an ear. If you do not have anyone, try calling
the Befrienders. They are there for anyone around-the-clock.
Music, especially classical music, helps to sooth the nerves. So when you
are stressed, do listen to this type of music. It relieves you of your pain and
stress. You can try this, close your eyes and imagine that you are in a place
where there is a brook nearby. You can hear the soft waves beating against the
bank. You can also imagine that you are walking on the white soft sandy beach.
Dream your stress away.
I guess thats about all I have to say today. Thank you for your attention.

The rivers a hoarder
and he buries down deep
Those little treasures
that he wants to keep.
The rivers a baby,
he gurgles and hums
And sounds like hes happily
sucking his thumbs.
The rivers a singer,

The countryside echoes

Hes gobbled up trees
and hell swallow you next.
