Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C or D on your answer sheet to indicate the correct answer to each of the questions.
Most people think that lions only come from Africa. This understandable because in fact most lions do come from there but this has not always been the case. If we went back ten thousand years we would find that there were lions roaming vast sections of the globe. However now, unfortunately only a very small section of the lions’ former habitat remains.
Asiatic lions are sub-species of African lions. It is almost a hundred thousand years since the Asiatic lions split off and developed as a sub- species. At one time the Asiatic lion was living as far west as Greece and they were found from there, but in a band that spreads eat through various countries of the Middle East, all the way to India. In museums now you can see Greek coins that have clear images of the Asiatic lion on them. Most of them are dated at around 500 B.C. However, Europe saw its last Asiatic lion roaming free to thousand years ago. Over the next nineteen hundred years the numbers of Asiatic lions in the other areas declined steadily, but it was only in the nineteenth century that they disappeared from everywhere but in India.
The Gir sanctuary in India was established especially to protect the Asiatic lion. There are now around three hundred Asiatic lions in India and almost all of them are in this sanctuary. However, despite living in a sanctuary, which makes them safe from hunters, they still face a number of problems that threaten their survival. One of these is the ever-present danger of disease. This is what killed more than a third of Africa’s Serengeti lions in 1994, and people arc fearful that something similar could happen in the Gir Sanctuary and kill off many of the Asiatic lions there.
India’s lions are particularly vulnerable because they have a limited gene pool. The reason for this is interesting - it is because all of them are descended from a few dozen lions that were saved by a prince who took a particular interest in them. He was very wealthy, and he managed to protect them otherwise they would probably have died out completely.
When you see the Asiatic lion in India, what you sense is enormous vitality. They are very impressive animals and you would never guess that they had this vulnerability when you look at them.

Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, or D on your answer sheet to indicate the correct answer to each of the questions .
We have heard of children who have imaginary playmates. I get lots of letters trom parents about them and I always say the same thing: don't say there is not one there. What you are putting down to imagination could be a spririt child. One dad wrote to me to say he was getting very worried about his child. He told me his son had an imaginary friend called Robbie, and was I forever saying things like “Don’t set off yet. Robbie is not in the car”. I told him "Your child can actually see that boy. Don’t say anything. He will either grow of it and go on to more worldly things or he will develop into a pcodmedium”.
I was about six or seven when I first saw the spirit children. I’d had theumatic fever and had to be in a pushchair. I don't know how but I knew that many people could not see Christopher and Pansy, I saw them a lot. I could never do maths but Christopher and Pansy helped me pass my exams! So there is nothing frightening about children having imaginary friends, especially if they have been very close. I remember one littte boy telling her mother “You don’t have to turn off the light tonigh, grandmother will do it!” Her mother watched him go upstairs on his own that night and the lights went off! It scares the life out of some parents. But you just have to accept hat his grandmother loved him very much and she had always tucked him in. It was a routine.
Most children are psychic up to the age of 11 or 12. My first psychic experience happened when I was four. There was a fire in the house nearby and all the neighbours were crying because little Tom died in the fire. I saw Tom’s spirit walking around them. When I told my father I saw Tom’s spirit walking he said “If you did then you did!” but mother warned me that I would end up in a mental hospital and I did. Nearly forty years later I was working as a nurse in one!
