II. Read the text and choose the answer A, B, C or D according to the text.

Package holidays, covering a two weeks' stay in an attractive location are increasingly popular, because they offer an inclusive price with few extras. Once you get to the airport, it is up to the tour operator to see that you get safely to your destination. Excursions, local entertainment, swimming, sunbathing, skiing - you name it - it's all laid on for you. There is, in fact, no reason for you to bother anything yourselves. You make friends and have a good time, but there is very little chance that you will really get to know the local people. This is even less likely on a coach tour, when you spend almost your entire time travelling. Of course, there are carefully scheduled stops for you to visit historic buildings and monuments, but you will probably be allowed only a brief stay overnight in some

famous city, with a polite reminder to be up and breakfasted early in time for the coach next morning. You may visit the beautiful, the historic, the ancient, but time is always at your elbow. There is also the added disadvantage of being obliged to spend your holiday with a group of people you have never met before, may not like and have no reasonable excuse for getting away from. As against this, it can be argued that for many people, particularly the lonely or elderly, the feeling of belonging to a group, although for a short period on holiday, is an added bonus. They can sit safely back in their seat and watch the world go by.

Today was my first day at a non-segregated school. I was so afraid to go. I tried to pretend that I was ill, but it didn’t work. My mom told me to get dressed and she walked me to the bus stop. The bus ride was okay because the kids from my neighborhood were all black like me. We talked the while way to the school about how scared we were. None of us knew what to expect and none could offer any advice to the others. We just knew that it was going to be a mess and we should be together. When the bus pulled in front of the school building, everyone shivered. There were

a lot of people crowded around the entrance to the school. They were shouting awful t

things at me and the others from the bus. The whole time I was walking in, I was wondering

why they were so upset. After all, everyone deserves equality. I finally got inside of the school

building along with the others. It was really nice inside. Everything was so clean and smelled

good. I didn’t know where my classroom was so I asked a white boy standing beside the water

fountain. He looked right through me as if I didn’t even exist. I’m sure to him, I didn’t. I got

the hint that I wasn’t welcome there so I decided to find the classroom on my own. I walked down the

hallway with my eyes to the floor. When I FOUND MY CLASSROOM? I had to gather up enough strength to

walk inside. The day at school seemed so long. Lunch was just as awful as sitting in class. The lunchroom

III. Read the following passage and answer the questions below it:

Today was my first day at a non-segregated school. I was so afraid to go. I tried to pretend that I was ill, but it didn’t work. My mom told me to get dressed and she walked me to the bus stop. The bus ride was okay because the kids from my neighborhood were all black like me. We talked the while way to the school about how scared we were. None of us knew what to expect and none could offer any advice to the others. We just knew that it was going to be a mess and we should be together. When the bus pulled in front of the school building, everyone shivered. There were

a lot of people crowded around the entrance to the school. They were shouting awful t

things at me and the others from the bus. The whole time I was walking in, I was wondering

why they were so upset. After all, everyone deserves equality. I finally got inside of the school

building along with the others. It was really nice inside. Everything was so clean and smelled

good. I didn’t know where my classroom was so I asked a white boy standing beside the water

fountain. He looked right through me as if I didn’t even exist. I’m sure to him, I didn’t. I got

the hint that I wasn’t welcome there so I decided to find the classroom on my own. I walked down the

hallway with my eyes to the floor. When I FOUND MY CLASSROOM? I had to gather up enough strength to

walk inside. The day at school seemed so long. Lunch was just as awful as sitting in class. The lunchroom

was divided into whites and blacks. When it was time to go home, I walked outside to get back on the

bus. All the white kids outside were staring and whispering as I walked by. I got on the bus, took a seat

and cried. I didn’t know how many days like this I could survive.

Seeing my mom made my heart jump of joy. I ran off the bus and into her arms.
