ENGLISH : COMPREHENSION

Read the passage and answer the questions that follow;

BE SAFE
The nurses from our local clinic visited our school today. They came to talk to us about HIV and
AIDS. We had to ask some questions which they answered. Here are some of the questions they
had to answer;
1. What does HIV and AIDS stand for?
* AIDS stands for Acquired Immune Deficiency Syndrome.
* HIV stands for Human Immunodeficiency virus.
2. What is a virus?
* A virus is a very small germ that you can only see with a powerful microscope.
3. What is HIV?
* lt is a virus that weakens the body's defence mechanism (immune system) and attacks the cells
that help fight infections.
4. How does a virus get inside the body?
* Some viruses (especially colds and flue) are spread through the air or by sharing a glass with
someone who already has it. Some are spread through bodily fluids.
5. How is HIV spread?
* lt is spread through sharing needles especially when injecting drugs.
* lt is also spread by having unprotected sex with an infected person.
* An infected mother can also pass the virus on her baby before or during birth or when the baby
is breastfeeding.
* lt can also be transferred during blood transfusion but the risk is very small as all the blood is
usually screened for viruses before use.

Please note: HIV is not spread by sitting next to someone who has got it, at school or on the bus.
You can't get it from sharing swimming pools or by touching or by hugging or shaking hands.
These are just myths.

Questions
1. Who visited the school?
2. What was the purpose of the visit?
3. What does HIV stands for?
4. State one myth about HIV and AIDS.
5. What is a myth?

Summary
In not more than 30 words, summarise the ways stated in the passage through which HIV and
AIDS can be spread. (5 marks)

MATHS : LENGTH

SPANS AND PACES

# The distance between the tip of the thumb and the little finger is called the span.
# The single step taken when walking is the pace.
# Ben's span measures 15cm.
# Ben measured the length of the chalkboard in spans and found out that it is 20 spans.
# Therefore, to calculate the length of the chalkboard in metres, you firstly multiply 15cm by 20
spans to get 300cm.
# 300cm is the length of the chalkboard in cm.
# Divide 300cm by 100 and get 3m.
# 3m is the length of the chalkboard in metres.

# Ben's pace measures 55cm.

# Ben measured the length of a path in paces and found out that it is 24paces.
# Therefore to calculate the length of the path in metres, you firstly multiply 55cm by 24 paces to
get 1 320cm.
# 1 320cm is the length of the path in cm.
# Divide 1 320cm by 100 and get 13,20m.
# 13,2m is the length of the path in metres.

TRY THESE :
1. Ben measured the length of the table and found out that it is 9 spans. Calculate its length in
metres.
2. Ben measured the length of a chart and found out that it is 15 spans. Calculate its length in
metres.
3. Ben measured the length of a storeroom and found out that it is 27 spans. Calculate its length
in metres.

SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY : SOIL

AGENTS OF WEATHERING
# These are factors responsible for weathering to occur.

A : Running water
# When it rains, water will flow.
# When it rains heavily, the water that flows will be having a lot of power.
# The power will force some rocks or stones to be moved.
# As they move, they rub against each other (abrasion) resulting in them breaking down into
smaller particles to form soil.

B : Freeze and thaw ( freezing water)

# When water gets into rock cracks and freezes because of low temperatures, it causes the crack
to enlarge.
# When the temperature rises again, the ice thaws(melts or defreezes) and the rock contracts.
# The freezing and thawing of the water continuously weakens the rock causing it to break.

C : Temperature changes
# When temperatures are high during the day, the rocks expand and when they become low
during the night, the rocks contract.
# This act causes rocks to peel off or to become weak and they break.

D : Animal hooves
# When animals move over some small stones, the action of hooves causes the rocks to breaks.

E : Tree roots
# When roots of trees grow between cracks, they cause the rock to enlarge and widen.
# Pieces of rock fall down as the roots grows bigger.

F : Human beings and their implements

# When people use ploughs in the fields, the ploughs run over rocks causing them to break.
# During road construction, caterpillars which are used to break rocks, form soil in the process.

Questions
1. What are agents of weathering?
2. Define the term abrasion.
3. Explain how running water contributes to weathering.
4. State any one agent of biological weathering.
5. When temperatures are high, the rock will .....

AGRICULTURE : CLIMATE AND LAND USE

CLIMATE CHANGE
# It is a change in climate over a long time especially due to an increase in average temperatures.

CAUSES OF CLIMATE CHANGE

*deforestation
*emission of greenhouse gases into the atmosphere which destroy the ozone layer.
*emission of carbon monoxide by cars and industries.

HOW DOES THE CHANGE AFFECT FARMING ACTIVITIES IN ZIMBABWE?

# the decrease in annual rainfall results in poor crop yields and animal production.
#crops and vegetation will dry up and animals will die due to lack of water,(drought) which leads
to little or no production.
* storms destroy crops, animal shelter and wash away soil nutrients.
# floods in low lying areas such as Muzarabani and Zambezi Valley destroy crops and drown
animals.

NB :Climate change affects agriculture in many ways but to cope with climate change, farmers
have to change the way the do agriculture.

HOW TO COPE WITH CLIMATE CHANGE

# Plant more trees.
# Grow crops in greenhouses.
# lrrigate crops in case of drought.
# Keep more drought tolerant animal breeds such as the hard Mashona breeds on cattle.
# Plant early maturing plant varieties.
# Plant more drought resistant crops such as sorghum.
# Change sowing dates according to temperatures and rainfall patterns.
# Change crop rotation in order to make the best use of available water. Grow cow peas, beans
and groundnuts which cover the ground.

Questions
1. What is climate?
2. Describe what is meant by climate change.
3. What is the effect of emission of greenhouse gases into the atmosphere?
4. Give one cause of climate change.
5. State one effect of the decrease in annual rainfall.

FAREME : CHRISTIANITY

THE DEATH, BURIAL AND RESURRECTION OF JESUS

# It all started after he entered Jerusalem riding on a colt(donkey).
# This showed peace, humility and gentleness.
# Jesus foretold his betrayal at the Last Supper.
# He was betrayed by Judas lscariot, tried by the Jewish leaders, persecuted, brought before the
Roman Governor Pontius Pilate, sentenced to death, crucified, buried and rose again on the third
day.
# After the betrayal by Judas lscariot, Jesus was arrested and brought before the Jewish Council.
# The High Priest was there with the Chief Priest, the elders and the teachers of the law.
# They tried to find some evidence against Jesus so that they could put him to death.
# They told lies about Jesus but they could not find anything worthy for him to be sentenced to
death.
# They accused him saying he had said he will destroy the temple and build it in three days.
# Jesus remained quiet until they asked him whether he was the Messiah and Son of God.
# Jesus responded positively.
# In fury, the High Priest tore his robes, accusing Jesus of *blasphemy* which is an act of not
showing respect to God or insulting God.
# The High Priest then declared that there was no need for any more witnesses and other
members of the Jewish Council agreed.
# They blindfolded Jesus and hit him.
# Peter was down in the courtyard when he was identified and was told that he belonged to the
crew but he denied sharply three times.
# The cock crowed and Peter remembered the prediction of Christ.
# He broke down and cried. He had rejected Jesus.

NB: ln our next lessons we will continue with Jesus' trial, crucifixion, death, burial and

Dear Liberty

I am sure you read on the internet that our warriors won the COSAFA tournament in the
National Sports Stadium. I wish you were there to witness the match in which our team
outplayed the Chipolopolos.

Our triumph over Zambia made every Zimbabwean proud. The Legendary Peter Ndlovu scored
the first goal, followed by Agent Sawu who scored two consecutive goals, allowing the team to
lead the Zambians by three goals to nil. Our Zimbabwean goalkeeper was never troubled at all.
No goal ever passed him until the match ended.

Zimbabwean flags were waved all over the ground with the song ‘’ yave nyama yekugocha’’
being sung by the joyful spectators. Indeed we were made proud.

Please send my love to your family.

HERITAGE-SOCIAL STUDIES: CULTURAL HERITAGE

MARRIAGE AND POPULATION GROWTH

TYPES OF MARRIAGES
1. Customary marriage
# A traditional marriage in which a couple can either register it or may choose not to register it
at all.
# A man can marry more than one wife.(polygamy)

2) Civil marriage
# A man is married to one wife.(monogamy)
# By law, one can not enter into two types of marriages.
# lt is illegal for a man to marry another wife when he is in a civil marriage.
# lf he does so, he commits a crime called bigamy.

EFFECTS OF MARRIAGE TYPES ON POPULATION GROWTH

# It is more likely that in a civil marriage, the husband and wife will have less children as
compared to those in a customary marriage where there will be many wives. This reduces
population growth.
# ln polygamous families, men can have many children from multiple wives. This increases
population growth. However, multiple wives can fight for the husband's attention leading to
misunderstandings and conflicts.

AGE AND MARRIAGE

# Child marriages occur when children are married before they are 18years old.
# lt is referred to as early or forced marriage. This is because in most cases, the girls are not
consulted about the marriage.
# Even if they agree, it is not considered as consent by the Constitution of Zimbabwe.
# Girls who marry while they are too young have a long fertility period.
# They tend to bear more children thereby increasing the population growth.
# Man and women who marry late in life have a shorter fertility period.
# They tend to have few children and contribute to low population growth.

CHILDBEARING
# Childbearing often brings joy to the mother and the family at large.
# However it can affect the health of a mother.
# The age of the mother and the spacing between pregnancies, have a great effect on the health
of the mother.
# Pregnancies and childbearing are the leading causes of death for women in developing
countries.
# Birth control is any method used to prevent pregnancy.
# Condoms, lntrauterine device(lUD), the pill, vasectomy, tying the tube and the natural method
are all ways which can be used to prevent pregnancy.

THE SOIL PROFILE

# When you dig from the soil surface going down, you will see layers of soil. They are called
*horizons*.
# A *soil profile* is a vertical cross section of soil showing horizons.
# A *horizon* is a layer of soil which is different from the next layer.
# Right at the top, you see vegetation, that is, trees or grass.
# Just below the vegetation, you see a very dark layer of soil, this is *humus*.( organic matter)
# Below the humus, there is also a dark layer of soil, this is *top soil*.
# Below the top soil, there is a layer which is lighter in colour, this is *sub soil*.
# Below the sub soil, you see pieces of stones and this is *gravel soil*.
# Below the gravel, you see rocks or a dwala, this is the *parent (material) rock*. It is usually
impervious. This means that it is a hard layer that does not allow water to pass through it.

The Horizons
NB: the knowledge of the soil profile helps farmers in choosing the correct types of crops to
grow.

A (top soil)
# lt is dark in colour due to the presence of humus or organic matter.
# lt has plant nutrients and water required by plants.
# Most plant roots are found in this horizon.
# lt has the most biological activities.
# lt is highly affected by farming activities carried out on the soil.

B (sub soil)
# lt is lighter than top soil in colour and has less organic matter.
# lt has less plant nutrients and water used by plants.
# Fewer plant roots are found (only those of long-rooted plants).
# Nutrients leached from horizon A are deposited in this horizon.
# There is less disturbance of the soil through tillage.

C (gravel soil)
# This is soil with small stones.
# lt is very light in colour as compared to sub soil and has poor nutrients.
# Very very few plants can grow in gravel soil, thus, less tree roots may be found on this
horizon(drought-resistant plants)
# Gravel does not absorb moisture.

D (parent rock)
# lt is an impervious hard rock which forms the water table because water can not pass through
it.
# lf you dig a well and reach this layer, you will have a permanent water supply.

*ESSAY: THE ADVANTAGES AND DISADVANTAGES OF MODERN TECHNOLOGY*

Change comes with acceptance and rejection. Technology has its own benefits as well as its bad
aspects.

Technology enables tasks to be done easier, quicker and conveniently. Work that was supposed
to be done manually can now be done by machines. In hospitals, lives are being saved through
the use of technology. Learners can now learn in the comfort of their homes online. Technology
enables the storage of information for future use.

However, technology has brought job insecurity to workers. There is also a danger of being
addicted to gadgets. The use of machines is complex to illiterate people. Information stored can
be manipulated or edited thereby changing its originality.

Nevertheless, life without technology is pointless in today’s world.

INDEPENDENCE AND SELF- GOVERNANCE

# The journey to lndependence and freedom in Zimbabwe from 12 September 1890 when Britain
colonised Zimbabwe to 18 April 1980 when we finally won our lndependence was long, rough
and bloody.

numbers.
# Some dead bodies where buried in mass graves in and outside Zimbabwe for example Chimoio
and Nyadzonya in Mozambique, and Freedom camp in Zambia.
# Today many Zimbabwe travel to see these places on Heroes Day in honour of the fallen heroes
and heroines.
# Zimbabwe as a colony of the Great Britain officially ended on the 18th of April making us take
our own destiny as an independent free nation.
# Zimbabwe is now being ruled by Zimbabweans.
# They choose their leaders through national elections.
# This is called self- governance.

*Benefits of self- governance*.

1. The power to choose leaders.
2. Improved access to education.
3. Increased access to land.
4. Fair distribution of resources.

*Comparing self-governance and colonial rule*.

# More people are now educated as compared to the colonial rule.
# There is peace and harmony in the country. Both whites and blacks live together in peace
without racial segregation.
# Health facilities are now open to all races.
# Blacks have been empowered through fair distribution of land for farming.
# More schools, colleges and universities have been built.
# Many blacks now own businesses and companies compared to the colonial era.
# Blacks now hold top positions in companies.

Read the passage and answer the questions that follow;

*Mysterious disease tied to climate change.*

A kidney disease that has killed more than 20 000 people in Central America may be caused by
dehyration. Manual labourers on sugar cane plantations who work for hours in the hot sun
usually get the disease. Other sufferers are farm workers, miners, fishermen and construction and
transport workers. Many people are trying to find out why these people are getting the disease,
but Mr Johnson, the researcher, believes that the main reason is dehydration.
His research team studied sugar cane workers and found that they usually worked in
temperatures that were hotter than they were supposed to work in. Workers who drink sugary
drinks to hydrate may actually be adding to the problem as they contain a lot of acid. They are
also linked to kidney problems. He suggested improved working conditions and drinking water
or other drinks that contain less sugar. The study suggested that more and more people are
getting sick as the weather gets hotter because of changes in the climate.

Questions
1. According to the passage which organ of the body is affected by the disease?
2. How many people has the disease killed in Central America?
3. What is to hydrate?
4. Who has been suffering from the disease?
5. What could be making the people get sick?
6. What type of workers were studied by the researchers?
7. Sugary drinks contain ..... which are not good for the body.
8. Why are more people getting the disease?
9. How can the disease be controlled?
10. What important lesson do we learn from the story?

Totems help people identify their relatives. ln other words, people who share the same totem are
related. A great sense of pride is shown by people as they speak highly of their totems. This is
called self-esteem. It seems everyone rates their totem best. Since people of the same totem are
considered blood relations, marriages between such two is regarded as taboo. When such mishap
occurs, the elders help the two perform a ritual of cutting blood ties known as kuchekaukama in
Shona. A person must not eat his or her totem. The bird(Shiri) would not consider birds as food,
thereby reducing the danger for the birds from humans. This promotes the conservation of
resources.

*John's adventure*
John settled down to enjoy the car ride into the park. They passed zebra, giraffes and all kinds of
buck but they did not stop.

" Do we only stop when we find lions?" asked the driver. The young man nodded. For an hour
they bumped along rough roads, as they searched all the places where lions might be. John began
to think that all the lions had left the park but soon, the driver slowed down.

About twenty metres away from the stream, there was a small thorn tree. The driver pointed to it
and smiled with satisfaction as he said, "There is the biggest male lion in the park." The lion lay
asleep, or half - asleep, in the shade of the tree.

"Look across the stream! There is his mate," whispered the young man. "She has got her family
with her too. Look there!" his finger shook a little with excitement as he pointed. Three cubs,
each about the size of a full- grown cat, trotted along behind their mother.
