They call Jamaica the "Island in the sun" and that is my memory of it. Of sunshine, warmth and abundant

fruit that was growing everywhere, and of love. There were two sisters ahead of me in the family, and though
of course I didn't know it, there was an exciting talk of emigration, possibly to Canada but more usually to
England, the land of opportunity. I guess that plans were already being made when I was born, for a year or
so later my Dad left for London. Two years after that my mum went as well and my sisters and I were left in
the care of my grandmother.

Emigrating to better yourself was a dream for most Jamaicans, a dream many were determined to fulfill.
Families were close and grandmothers were an important part of the family. So, when the mass emigrations
began, it seemed perfectly right and natural for them to take over the running of families left behind.
Grandmothers are often strict, but usually also spoil you. She ran the family like a military operation: each of
us, no matter how young, had our tasks. Every morning, before we went to school, we all had to take a
bucket appropriate to our size and run a relay from the communal tap to the barrels until they are full. My
sisters had to sweep the yard before they went to school. My grandmother would give orders to the eldest
and these were passed down- as I got older I found this particularly annoying! But I can tell you, no one
avoided their duties.
My Dad came over from England to see how we were getting on . He talked to us about the new country,
about snow, about the huge city, and we all wanted to know more, to see what it was like. I didn't know it at
that time., but he had come to prepare us for the move to England. Six months later my grandmother told
me that I was going to join my parents and that she, too, was emigrating.
London was strange and disappointing. There was no gold on the pavements, as the stories in Jaimaica had
indicated. The roads were busy, the buildings were grey and dull, with many tall, high-rise blocks. It was

totally unlike Jamaica, the houses all small and packed close together. In my grandmother's house I had a big
bedroom, here I had to share.
Then came the biggest shock: snow. While flakes came out of the sky and Dad smiled, pointed and said:
"That's snow!" I rushed outside, looked up and opened my mouth to let the flakes drop in. The snow settled
on my tongue and it was so cold that I cried. My toes lost all feeling. As my shoes and socks got wet and
frozen, there came an excruciating pain and I cried with the intensity of it. I didn't know what was
happening to me.
Question 36: The writer says that when he was very young ________.
A. he was upset because his parents left
B. he was very keen to go to England

A. wanted to be free from responsibility

A. being told what to do by his sisters
B. having to sweep the yard before school
C. having to do duties he found difficult
D. being given orders by his grandmother

A. His father didn't tell him why he had come
B. He didn't know how to react to his father
C. His father told him things that were untrue
D. He felt eager about what his father told him

A. it was smaller than he expected

Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C or D on your answer sheet to choose the
best answer for each of the question from 43- 50
Staggering tasks confronted the people of the United States, North and South when the Civil War ended.
About a million and a half soldiers from both sides had to be demobilized, readjusted to civilian life, and
reabsorbed by the devastated economy.
Civil government also had to be put back on a peacetime basis and interference from the military had to be
stopped. The desperate plight of the South has eclipsed the fact that reconstruction had to be undertaken

also in the North, though less spectacularly. Industries had to adjust to peacetime conditions; factories had to
be retooled for civilian needs.
Financial problems loomed large in both the North and the South. The national debt had shot up from a
modest $65 million in 1861, the year the war started, to nearly $3 billion in 1865, the year the war ended.
This was a colossal sum for those days but one that a prudent government could pay. At the same time, war
taxes had to be reduced to less burdensome levels.
Physical devastation caused by invading armies, chiefly in the South and border states, had to be repaired.
This Herculean task was ultimately completed, but with discouraging slowness.
Other important questions needed answering. What would be the future of the four million Black people who
were freed from slavery? On what basis were the Southern states to be brought back into the Union?
What of the Southern leaders, all of whom were liable to charges of treason? One of these leaders, Jefferson
Davis, president of the Southern Confederacy, was the subject of an insulting popular Northern song, “Hang
Jeff Davis from a Sour Apple Tree,” and even children sang it. Davis was temporarily chained in his prison cell
during the early days of his two-year imprisonment. But he and the other Southern leaders were finally
released, partly because it was unlikely that a jury from Virginia, a Southern Confederate state, would convict
them. All the leaders were finally pardoned by President Johnson in 1868 in an effort to help reconstruction
efforts proceed with as little bitterness as possible.
Question 43. What does the passage mainly discuss?
A. Wartime expenditures
B. Problems facing the United States after the war
C. Methods of repairing the damage caused by the war
D. The results of government efforts to revive the economy
Question 44. The word “devastated” in line 3 is closest in meaning to ______.
A. developing
B. ruined
C. complicated
D. fragile
Question 45. According to the passage, which of the following statements about the damage in
the South is correct?
A. It was worse than in the North

B. The cost was less than expected
C. It was centered in the border states
D. It was remedied rather quickly
Question 46. The passage refers to all of the following as necessary steps following the Civil War
EXCEPT______
A. helping soldiers readjust
B. restructuring industry
C. returning government to normal
D. increasing taxes
Question 47. Why does the author mention a popular song?
A. To give an example of a Northern attitude towards the South
B. To illustrate the Northern love of music
C. To emphasize the cultural differences between the North and the South
D. To compare the Northern and Southern presidents
Question 48. The word “them” in line 20 refers to ______.
A. charges
B. leader
C. days
D. irons
