Read the following passage and blacken the letter A, B, C, or D on your answer sheet to indicate the correct answer to the following questions.
Kakenya Ntaiya is the oldest of eight children in her family, belonging to Kenya’s Maasai tribe. When Ntaiya was young, her father worked in a distant city, and the family was extremely poor. As the eldest, Ntaiya helped to feed and care for the younger children. She carried water, gathered firewood, cooked meals, and worked in the field. Like all the girls in her village, she was supposed to follow tradition and learn the skills to be a good Maasai wife.
Her father expected her to marry at age 13, as was the custom. However, Ntaiya didn’t feel the same way. She had a plan. And she was brave enough to make it work. With all the courage she could find in herself, she went to her father and said she would do what he wanted if he let her finish high school. Her father agreed. Ntaiya graduated from high school with top honors.
After graduation, Ntaiya decided she wanted to attend college - a university in the United States. By then, however, her father was sick and in a hospital. All the family money went to his care, so there was no money for Ntaiya.
Ntaiya met the village leaders. At first, they were angry with her for daring to do what even few boys dreamed about. She promised she would use her education to help the village. She promised to come back and build a school. One village leader saw her determination and agreed to help her. He gave her money, and she also received a scholarship to Randolph-Macon Women’s College in the United States. In 2004, Ntaiya received her bachelor’s degree. Later, she got a job at the United Nations. In 2011, she received her doctorate in education — all made possible by her courage and her will to succeed.
Ntaiya did not forget her promise to the village. She returned to Enoosaen and in 2009, she opened the first primary school for girls in her village, the Kakenya Center for Excellence. There the students have education and opportunities that Ntaiya had to fight so hard for. Girls that were once forced to marry at 13 are now dreaming of becoming doctors, lawyers, pilots, and business women.
