(A, B, C orD) and mark the correct letter A, B, C orD onyour onswer sheet.
I asked myself if I, at not quite eighteen, could
really make a difference in the world? Yes,
Mahatma Gandhi and Martin Luther King had had
a tremendous global impact, but I was still young
and inexperienced.
And then I came up with my One Ringgit
Project idea. If every person donated one ringgit,
that amount would grow and grow to a point where
it would not be a small sum anymore. I could
speak to fifty people first to share my plan with them
and if they agreed, I would have at least flfty ringgit
with which to kick-start my project.
With newfound confidence, I started writing
down the #lRinggitProject plan and even gave it a
trendy hashtag. Basically, I had been reading up on
social enterprises and how combining charity with
a business idea would not only make money but
be able to solve certain social problems that would
benefit society. I wrote and rewrote my business
pitch until it was meaningful but most importantly,
achievable. When itwas ready, I decidedto approach
my parents first. I wanted to get their feedback and
advice.
That evening after dinner, I asked my mum
and dad to listen to my idea. I asked them to be
totally honest with me because I needed to know
if I was convincing enough to get the funding for
my new project. I wished myself luck because my
dad was a chartered accountant and he was the most
likely to ask questions and try to break my case.
I started by telling them about
the problem.
had noticed that the drains around the neighbourhood
were always clogged. There was simply too much
rubbish floating around in the drains. Heavy rain
would cause all the plastics and other garbage in
drains to get washed down and then get stuck in
the pipes that are supposed to let the water out into
bigger drains. I then asked my parents to think of a
cheap but very effective solution.
They thought of some good solutions but
neither of them managed to guess my idea. Finally,
I showed them my solution - a barrier made of a
net-like material that would sieve the rubbish before
it reached the pipes. We could also make special
net bags to tie at the end of the large pipes so that
when water comes out, the floating rubbish could
get trapped in the nets and easily removed.
Dad was very keen on the idea. He said that
the cost would be quite low because the materials
needed are easily found at hardware stores. His
only concern was the manpower needed to remove
the accumulated rubbish in the nets. I told him that
my neighbourhood friends were willing to help out
especially since they would be paid for their time and
effort. This was, after all, what a social enterprise is
all about. It was a strategy to make money whilst
doing something good for the community.
Well, that night, mum and dad invested ten
ringgit each for my project and I officially had a
project fund! I was ovedoyed to think that I could
indeed make a difference, no matter how small
the impact. I slept well that night, knowing that
everything was going according to plan.
The next day was a Saturday. I had two days
to walk around the neighbourhood and convince
people to contribute a minimum of one ringgit to
this project. After all, it was for the good of the
community because we have had to deal with
smelly drains for a long time. This would be a low-
cost but high-impact solution to our shared problem.
I repeated my social enterprise idea from house to
I
house and in the end, I had a fund of RM580.00.
The total amount surprised me because so many
people gave more than the RMI minimum.
It sfrengthened my belief that everyone can
do something meaningful and worthwhile if they
turn ideas into action. The difference between those
who do and those who don't is attitude. I believed
in myself and made others believe in me. With the
right attitude, anything is possible. It can transform
the word 'impossible' to 'I'm possible!"
19 In paragraph2,why does the writer use the phrase it would not be a small sum anymore?
A He hoped the project would be very profitable.

A His father was very good with money.
B His father was stricter than his mother.
C His father would not be easy to convince.
D His father would try to get him to change his plan.

Questions 27 to 32
You are going to read an article written by a barista at a cafd. Six sentences have been removedfrom the
article. Choose from the sentences A to H the one which fits each gap Q7 to 32). There are two extra
sentences whichyou do not need to use.

Markyour answers onthe separate answer sheet.

All in a Day's Work

I used to love the smell of freshly brewed coffee. The aroma of the coffee beans being heated up and
releasing its delicious smells into the air atthe cafe I work in would make me instantly thirsty for a nice

hot cuppa. 27 I guess that is what happens to overworked and underpaid staff when they are no

longer excited to go to work.

A big law firm has set up office beside the caf6 and since then, we have had very good business.
Don't get me wrong, more customers mean higher profits and my boss is smiling all the way to the bank.
28 I wouldn't be complaining if we worked on a commission basis, but we don't.

When I reach home and finally get to sit down and rest, my mind is still working thinking of a
solution. 29 Making a good cup of coffee not only depends on the barista's skill, but it also takes
a lot of time to get it right.

Therefore, I think that the best way to create a win-win situation for everyone is to hire more staff.

I think if we had more workers, we could keep up with all the orders without being run off our feet.
30 More hands make light work, right?

The issue now is how to convince the cafe owner that we should be hiring more staff. 31

We may have to write a letter and get everyone to sign it so that she knows it is a group decision.

On the other hand, we could just nominate one person to tell our boss about it verbally. 32
The last time someone suggested something to her which she did not like, she yelled at the top of her
voice! Nevertheless, I know I have to voice it out because no one else would even dare. Good luck to
myself tomorrow!
A However, these days I dread the smell of E This second option is not so favoured
coffee. because it could have bad consequences
for that person.

B Of the two choices, I would choose neither. F Our boss is very careful with financial
matters so it will be hard to persuade
her that it is necessary.

C To find an answer, we should first analyse G The employees would face less pressure
the problem. and stress.

D They need to pay us a higher salary for the H It also means that we are constantly
pressure that we are facing. on our feet attending non-stop to

Questions 33 to 40
We interviewed six teenagers about what money monagement means to them. Read the texts below and
answer the questions thatfollow.

A - N,[.IZAN, 16 years old

Learning how to manage money should start from a young age. Children should learn to save
coins and smaller notes first in money boxes and later in personal bank accounts. I believe that
when you start saving money from a young age, it becomes a habit that helps us manage money
better as adults.

B - SUI LING, 14 years old

When I was younger, I helped my grandmother sell dumplings. I realised then that no one need go
hungry if we work hard and know how to save money. I learnt how to manage my money from
my grandmother. We would count out our earnings, put aside money to buy new ingredients then
divide the rest between spending money and savings.

C - CHITRA, L7 years old

I never had to worry about money before the economic downturn. After that, my parents could
no longer afford to buy me a new car for my eighteenth birthday. However, they had practised
good money management when I was a child and had an education savings account for me.
I can still afford to continue my studies.
D - NURUL, 13 years old
My teacher taught us about money management. She told us that we should divide our pocket
money into three categories. We should have different money jars and label them for daily
expenses, savings for emergencies and savings for certain goals like buying a smartphone.
I really want to try her savings technique.

E- AMI& 15 years old

I want to buy games online but my parents told me that it is a waste of money and poor money
management to just spend money on online games. Well, I aim to do well in my studies, get a
good job and earn enough to own my own credit card. I can buy anything online then.

F - NORDIANA, 17 years old

Now that I am in my final year of secondary school, I am starting to worry about financial matters.
I think that our education system doesn't prepare us sufficiently for life after school. I have no
clue how to do things like pay taxes, invest my money in unit trusts or shares, buy life insurance
or pay for a medical card. I think students need a proper course on money management to make
us more financially responsible adults.
Questions 33 to 36
Which paragraph (A-F) describes thefollowing experiences of money management?
Markyour qnswers onthe separate answer sheet.

Statements Paragraph

33 I am notprepared to make goodfinancial decisions.

34 I am interested in a new money management technique.

35 I learned how to manage money through hands-on experience.

36 I am thankful that my parents are forward-thinking in money matters.
