I would like to thank all educators nationwide for all your services and sacrifices in educating
our children as well as your contributions to the country's success. I believe all teachers miss
seeing their students. Usually schools are coloured with many activities on May 16 and I am
sure these teachers have received plenty of wishes from students on WhatsApp, Twitter, or
Instagram. This year, however, it is a tad different because we are still fighting the Covid-19
virus but this does not mean we can't celebrate this memorable day.

Petaling Jaya: It is not a piece of cake for the local town council to

can go hand-in-hand to keep leptospirosis at bay. They can make it a
habit to clean the top surface of a soda can properly before drinking
at stalls or restaurants. The public should also keep away from

SULIT 1119/2

Just Love Him is a poignant story of the real- life struggle of a woman who had to care for
the love of her life, Daniel, an Alzheimer’s patient.
Josephine, a devoted mother and wife, had blissful life with a successful husband
and three loving children. As she grows into her golden years, she had the privilege of
seeing her children settling down and enjoy becoming a grandmother.
Unfortunately, the early onset of her husband’s Alzheimer’s was a major turning point
in her life. As his condition worsened through the years, Josephine had to leave her
profession as a librarian, pack her bags and relocate to a house that is nearer to a facility
that specializes in Alzheimer’s care. As her children and family slowly began to distance
themselves and leave her with a total responsibility in caring for her husband, she became
more isolated and lonelier.
Superbly acted by Academy Award winners Julie James as Josephine and Henry
Oldman as Daniel, this film is a realistic portrayal of the trials and tribulations of caregivers
as they dedicate their lives to care for their loved ones. It is indeed a touching story for the
whole family.

Questions 26 – 31 are based on the following passage.
1 When will I be released? I have another three months to serve until I am freed.
I have messed up my life and true enough, my mother’s curse really worked. That
must have been because I have hurt her feelings a lot.
2 My father had left my mother when she was pregnant with me. She played the
role of a single parent very well until I started mixing with some notorious boys in 5

school. She warned me to keep away from them but I insisted that they were part
of my life. I idolized them because they always had the money to spend and used
expensive handsets.
3 My mother worked as an operator in a small industry and earned very little.
We lived from hand to mouth. I was never given any luxury and I always blamed 10
her for it. I felt that she did not work hard enough to give me the luxury. At that
time, I despised her so much that I even told her that I hated the sight of her. Then,
she found a second job as a washerwoman in the neighbourhood.
4 I started stealing money from her savings and once I even pawned her only
wedding ring to get extra pocket money to impress my rich friends. I spent it at 15
expensive ‘Nasi Kandar’ restaurants. At school, I became notorious among friends
and started missing classes to join my friends at shopping complexes. Slowly, I
stopped going to school and when my mother found out, she scolded and even
begged me to go back to school. I told her to get lost and packed my bags to leave
home. She cried and promised to provide me with all the luxuries I needed. I went 20
near her and slapped her on the face. That was when she cursed that one day, I
would regret it when the whole world turned its back on me.
5 I left home and found myself a job as a foreman. The boss sacked me when I
started laying hands on his earnings. Then I became a contract worker and stayed
with the other contract workers. The workload was too heavy for me and I started 25
playing truant at work. I got myself fired again and had no home to stay. I went
back to my so-called friends for money and shelter but they turned me down and
some did not even acknowledge me. They stared at me as if I was a filthy thing. I
was hungry and became desperate. I needed food, money and shelter but I didn’t
want to return to my mother because I was ashamed of myself. 30
6 I had to do something. I walked up to the wet market in town, hoping to get
myself a job there. I saw an Indian lady with things in both hands walking alone
towards her car. An evil idea struck my mind. She had her purse under her armpit. I
walked slowly towards her, snatched her purse and fled on foot. I could hear her
shouting for help and some people ran after me. However, I managed to escape. I 35
hid myself at a construction site and I rummaged through the contents of the
purse. She had almost RM200.00 and that kept me alive for another twelve days.

7 I became excited because that was easy money and I felt like doing it again.
This time I went to the Mega Mall and tried my luck. I snatched a Chinese lady’s
handbag and tried to flee but this time I was unlucky. Some passersby and the 40
security guard caught me. I found myself behind bars, for a year.
8 I truly regret now. Once I am out, I want to go back to my mother. I have been
really cruel to her. I need to take care of her. I will go back to school and at the
same time I will work to cope with our expenses. I will do well in school and further
my education. I want to be an engineer and make my mother proud. I will get her 45
everything, everything that she needs. I need to get out of this place. Mother,
please forgive me.

A Poison Tree

I was angry with my friend:


I told my wrath, my wrath did end.

12
SULIT 1119/2

I was angry with my foe:


I told it not, my wrath did grow.

And I watered it in fears


Night and morning with my tears,
And I sunned it with smiles
And with soft deceitful wiles.

And it grew both day and night,


Till it bore an apple bright,
And my foe beheld it shine,
And he knew that it was mine,--

And into my garden stole


When the night had veiled the pole;
In the morning, glad, I see
My foe outstretched beneath the tree.

William Blake
