My name is Linh. I’m a pupil at Kim Dong Primary School. I’m in class 5A with Lee and John. I love reading comic books. I often read them in my free time. When I see a new word, I try to guess its meaning. I write the word in my notebook and say it many times. I often stick new words on my bedroom walls and practise reading them aloud. Lee and John love learning English too. We often learn to speak English by talking with our foreign friends in our free time. Lee is very good at English. She usually practises listening by watching cartoons on TV. She learns to write my writing emails to her friends every day. John loves reading. He goes to the library twice or three times a week. He usually read English books to practise reading. They always help me to learn English. We are happy because we can understand each other. English is necessary for communication.

Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C , or D to indicate the correct answer to each of the questions.

        These days it is easy for most of us to get a hold of the latest books or magazines. We can go to bookstores, order them through the Internet, or borrow them from the local libraries. Now imagine having to walk miles and miles through a hot sandy desert just to borrow a book. This is the reality for people living in the villages of the Carissa region of Kenya in East Africa.

        In 1996, librarian Wycliffe Oluoch used to spend each day waiting for people to come to borrow some of the 24,000 books in his library in Carissa. The library had no shortage of books, but people weren’t coming to read them. It was too much effort to walk through the desert just to borrow books. Oluoch racked his brain for ways to entice people into the library. After a lot of thought, he hit upon a great idea. If people wouldn’t come to the library, then he would have to take the library to them. Oluoch strapped boxes of books onto the backs of camels, and created the Mobile Camel Library.

        Starting with three camels in 1996, but more recently expanding the service to six camels, the Mobile Camel Library serves over one million people. Twice a month, the camel library can be seen carrying books all around the Carissa region. These hard-working animals need little water and can carry up to 500 pounds of books across the sands. A librarian, a library assistant, a herdsman, and a lookout all travel with the camels. The lookout helps protect the books from thieves.

        The children of Carissa love the camel library and appreciate Oluoch’s effort. Eleven-year-old Mohamud Mohamed reads his library books carefully and always returns them on time. He knows the Carissa library punishes people for losing books, just like any other library. However, the punishment is very stiff compared to that of other libraries. If a village loses a book, the camel library stops visiting.
