COMPREHENSION (15MRKS)
CHIEF ULLIN’S DAUGHTER
Heavy dark clouds were gathering in the late afternoon sky. There was stillness in the air, a stillness
that threatened a storm.
The boatman who rowed people across the lake was making fast his boat when a young man and
woman approached him in a great hurry. They were desperate to cross the lake, they said, and
urged him to take him to take them. He shook his head and pointed to the sky. He told them that
the storm was soon coming and that they should wait until it blew over. It would be dangerous to
take his small rowing boat out on the lake.
All the time he was talking, the young couples were nervously looking behind them. Kathure, the
young man, pleaded with the boatman to take them and offered him a purse of silver coins. He told
the boatman that he and Jackline, the young woman, were in love and were determined to marry.
Her father was Chief Ullin and he wanted to marry Jackline off to a neighboring chief, a man she
did not love. The chief was at that moment pursuing them. They must cross the lake to be safe.
The boatman knew of Chief Ullin’s fiery temper and how he would kill the young man if he caught
him. He could also see how very much in love the young couples were.
Just then the boatman’s son, Eric, came. He was a strapping young man who helped his father. He
was told the story of the young couple and sympathized with their plight.
The young woman spoke up. She would rather, she said, face the turbulent waters than meet the
wrath of her angry father. Tears welled upon her eyes. Never, she protested, would she marry a
man she did not love.
The boatman was touched by her appeal and told his son that he had decided to row the couple
across- not for money, but because he admired their courage and love. Eric looked anxiously at his
father. A storm was certainly coming, he warned. It would be far too risky.
However, his father was already herding his passengers into his boat. When they were both seated he
untied the rope and made to get in himself. Suddenly Eric pulled his father away and leapt into the
boat, took up the oars and began to row away.
His father, when he had recovered his breath, shouted for his son to come back. His wife, on hearing
the shouts, ran down the lake’s edge. Seeing her son rowing away over the stormy water, she
screamed for him to return. The threatening wind whipped her words away.
Towards the lake a group of armed men came. It was the chief with his warriors. He was angry, but
when he saw his daughter out on the lake being tossed by angry waves he was terribly afraid. He
bellowed that he forgave them and that they should return.
It was in vain. As he shouted the waves capsized the little craft and its three young occupants were
drowned as the old people watched.
(From the skills of English, Oxford University press)

USHAIRI
Ukimwi vielelezo, vyake vinoendeleza,
Mtu hasa ni wa mwanzo, Yule asojituliza,
Hupata maambukizo, wengine kuwarukiza,
Hiyo njia mojawapo, inosambaza ukimwi.

Damu nayo huchangiya, pasi na kuichunguza,

Tenye vidudu vibaya, mwengine kumuongeza,
Kuona wasaidiya, kumbe wamuangamiza,
Na hilo ni mojawapo, lisambazalo ukimwi

Shidano kutochemsha, hata nahilo laweza,

Ukimwi kusababisha, kwengine kuufikiza,
Kuona wasalimisha, na huku wadidimiza,
