Eukhtuul, a young Mongolian girl.
'Last year, when Eukhtuul was walking home from school, she was attacked by boys with sticks and her
eyes were badly damaged. Dr. Duffey, an Orbis doctor, said that without an operation she would never see
again, I thought about all the things I do that she couldn't, things like reading schoolbooks, watching
television, seeing friends, and I realised how lucky I am.'
'The Orbis team agreed to operate on Eukhtuul and I was allowed to watch, together with some Mongolian
medical students. I prayed the operation would be successful. The next day I waited nervously with Eukhtuul
while Dr. Duffey removed her bandages. "In six months your sight will be back to normal," he said. Eukhtuul
smiled, her mother cried, and I had to wipe away some tears, too!'
Now Eukhtuul wants to study hard to become a doctor. Her whole future has changed thanks to a simple
operation. We should all think more about how much our sight means to us.’

Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, or D to indicate the correct answer to each of
the following questions.
Grandparents are becoming the forgotten generation, with youngsters now too busy to listen to their
stories from the olden days.
A study of 1,000 five to 18 year-olds reveals just 21 per cent will visit their older relatives to hear
about how their lives were different in the past; such as where they worked, how it was living in the war,
and how they met the love of their life. More than half of youths have no idea what job their grandparent
did before retirement - admitting they'd never thought to ask. Sadly, one in 10 admitted they are simply not
interested in their grandmother's or granddad's previous job or talents and interests, and a quarter only turn
up to see them for pocket money. But 23 per cent claim the reason they don't know anything about their
older relatives is because they don't really get the chance to talk properly.
Geoff Bates, spokesman for McCarthy & Stone's Inspirational Generation campaign, said: “We
know this generation have lived full lives with heroic tales to tell and so much to offer, but how many of us
have actually thought to ask these questions of our older family members? We want to shout about the
amazing feats retirees have achieved in their lifetime and put the spotlight on the wonderfully colorful lives
of today's older people. We are calling on parents and children to talk to their grandparents, to find out what
they have done in their lives - and continue to do, and tell us all about it so we can give them the credit they
deserve.”
Researchers found that although 65 per cent of youngsters do see their grandparents every single

week, 37 per cent claim this is only because their parents want them to. And while 39 per cent talk to their
Mã đề 121

Page 3/4


grandparents on the phone, Facebook or Skype at least once a week - 16 per cent once a day - conversation
is rarely focused on what they are doing or have done in the past. Four in 10 kids have no idea what their
grandparents proudest achievements are, while 30 per cent don't know if they have any special skills or
talents. And 42 per cent don't spend any time talking about their grandparent's history -and are therefore
clueless about what their grandmother or granddad was like when they were younger. Perhaps due to this
lack of communication and respect, just six per cent of children say they look up to their grandparents as a
role model and inspiration. However, grandchildren are agreed their grandparents are both loving and
friendly, while 43 per cent think they're funny - with 23 per cent admitting they often have more fun with
their elderly relatives than their parents.
