Tekst 1.
Beth was ill – she was sicker than anyone
thought. The girls knew nothing about
illness, and Mr Laurence, their neighbour,
was not allowed to see her. Meg stayed at
home so that she wouldn’t infect the family
she worked for. She did the housework just

to have something to do in the day. She felt
terrible when she wrote letters to Mrs
March, their mother, but said nothing in
them about Beth’s illness. She didn’t think
it was right, but she had promised
Hannah that she wouldn ’t say
anything – Hannah had told her she
didn’t want Mrs March to worry about
something that Beth would probably get
over.
Jo looked after Beth day and night. It
wasn’t difficult because Beth was very
patient, and never complained about her
pain. But eventually she almost lost her
voice; she tried to sing with such a sore throat
that there was no music left; she did not
know the familiar faces around her but
called them the wrong names; and she
wanted her mother. Then Jo became
frightened, Meg wanted to write the truth
to Mrs March, and even Hannah said she
would think about it, but that there was no
danger yet.
The days seemed so dark then. And the
hearts of the sisters were sad as they
worked and waited, while death came
closer to their door.
Adapted from: Louisa May Alcott, Little Women, Chapter 18: Dark Days
1 Meg didn’t
A write to their mother.
B tell Mrs March that one of her
daughters was ill.
C send her letters.
D think it was necessary to tell Mr and Mrs
March about their daughter’s illness.
2 One reason why the girls knew that
Beth was very ill was because
A she had lost interest in singing.
B she couldn’t recognise her mother.
C she became frightened.
D she didn’t know who they were.
Tekst 2.
Scarlet fever is one of the most common
illnesses described in classic eighteenth-
and nineteenth-century literature. That is
because, before the discovery of
antibiotics, it was one of the major
causes of death.

Name: ______________________________________ Class: ____
It is easy to catch the disease. It is spread
by getting too close to the infected person,
touching them or using things such as the
same towels. People who catch the
disease get a sore throat and a fever – a
high temperature in other words. The name
scarlet fever comes from the fact that the
patient’s tongue goes a bright red colour. A
day or two after the fever starts, the patient
then gets a rash which usually starts on
the neck and face but soon spreads all
over the body. Anyone can catch it, but it
is most common among children aged
between two and eight years old.
In 1900, a cure for the disease was found
and many more people were able to
survive. It was still dangerous, though, and
remained deadly until the invention of
penicillin. Nowadays, it doesn’t usually
cause any serious problems provided that
people are able to get medical treatment
as soon as possible. Once this has been
done, it means taking antibiotics for a few
days and having a week off school.
3 The clearest symptom that the illness is
scarlet fever is
A the high temperature.
B the rash.
C the colour of the tongue.
D the sore throat.
4 The writer is
A describing the history of scarlet fever.
B warning people of the dangers of
scarlet fever.
C recommending a new treatment for
scarlet fever.
D giving examples of scarlet fever in
literature.
