Read carefully Passage A, Don’t run, whatever you do, in the Reading Booklet Insert and then
answer Questions 1 and 2 on this Question Paper.

Question 1

You are the Head Guide, Chris (Peter’s boss). You are responsible for training the safari guides.
When a group of new trainee guides arrives at the camp, you give a talk to prepare them for what
lies ahead.

Write the words of your talk.

In your talk, you should:

• describe the range of attractions Idube Camp and the area around it have to offer and how
these might appeal to guests
• explain what being a trainee guide is like – the kind of activities they will be asked to do and
what they should and should not do as trainees
• suggest what makes a good safari guide, the challenges of the job and the personal qualities
they will need to develop.

Base your talk on what you have read in Passage A, but be careful to use your own words. Address
each of the three bullet points.

Begin your talk, ‘Welcome to Idube Camp …’

Write about 250 to 350 words.

Up to 15 marks are available for the content of your answer, and up to 5 marks for the
quality of your writing.
