During the school holidays, the scouts of SMKA Tun Perak
organised a
camping trip to Taman Negara. The bus departs at 10 a.m.
sharp from their
school. Mr. Md Amin bin Sadi, the scout master accompanied
us. The scouts
were excited as this was his first camping experience. On the
way, the scouts
played the guitar and sang songs. When they reaching
Taman Negara, three
guides were waited for them. The guides took them to their
camping spot and
the scouts set down their camps. The scouts then made
preparations to cook
lunch. It was fun cooking their own even although it was not
as delicious
as their mothers cooking. After doing cleaning up, the scout
went to explore
the jungle with the guides. They had the opportunity to see
much different
kinds of insects. They collected some species and takes
many photographs.
That night after dinner, they sat above the portable lights.

Family Holiday in Vietnam and Cambodia

The holidays are here! My family and I want to go on a family vacation. My


parents love exotic holiday destinations. They want to visit Angkor Wat as it is a
UNESCO World Heritage Site.
Weve checked out a few tour packages. Wow! Theres so many to choose
from. Theres a six-day tour to Angkor Wat and Ho Chi Minh offered by Lotus Travel
and Tours. At RM1649 per person,the tour highlights are Angkor Wat and Tonle Sap
Floating Village. There is a boat cruise to visit the village. We get to see floating
markets, floating houses and floating schools of Cambodian fishermen. That sounds
interesting but my younger sister isnt too keen on it.
Im excited about the Ho Chi Minh City tour. The tour highlight is the Cu Chi
Tunnel, a network of tunnels that were underground cities in the 1960s. we also get
to shop at Vietnams famous Ban Thanh market. My mum will enjoy it!
We can choose from 3 departure dates, 17 November, 25 November and 16
December. Theres also another 4-day tour to Ho Chi Minh City which costs less at
RM 1249 per person. But we wont get to see Angkor Wat. Ill let my mum and dad
decide, Im so confused now.

Question 4

Read the article about ways to help a victim who feels faint.
Fainting can be frightening thing, especially when you do not know why it is
happening or what to do. It is more frightening than serious, but do take
precautions. Here are ways you can take care of yourself or someone else it occurs.
To avoid injuries, try to stop the victim from falling to the ground. If the
person is standing upright, lay him down on the ground or sit him down on a couch.
Make sure it is not a chair without armrests. This will still allow the victim to fall off
it and cause injury.
Next, open the window or door to allow more air into the room. Another way
to help a person who feels faint is to get a cold compress and place it on the
forehead. Wrap the compress in a cloth before applying it.
When the victim recovers from the fainting spell, get the person back into an
upright sitting position slowly. Continue to give the victim support, even after they
are sitting upright. Dont allow him to walk immediately. If the person is conscious,
then give him some water. Dont let him gulp a mouthful of water. Make sure he
takes small sips at a time to prevent choking.
If you feel faint, you may be able to take these steps. If possible, lie down.
This can help prevent fainting as it allows blood to circulate to the brain. Dont let
yourself get dehydrated. Drink enough fluids, especially when your body is losing
more water due to sweating or being in a warm environment.
Finally, ensure there is good blood circulation. If you have to stand or sit for a
long time, periodically stretch your leg muscles. Also, cross your legs to help
improve blood flow to the heart and brain. Try to avoid overheated or cramped
