QUESTION 4
Read the following scenario below and answer the
questions that follow.
|
Mafa is a ten-year-old boy. He is a physically strong boy like his
father, Clide. Mafa is shy, has introvert behaviour, and enjoys watching
soccer indoors. He hates his father's job as it steals away their time to
spend together. Mafa always seeks his father's
attention but can not find it. Clide
is a quantity surveyor, owning his own company. He is a very busy man, which is likely a
reason for his short temperament. He dearly loves his job and it steals away
his family time. He sometimes attends to the boys' soccer games during
weekends at their school. Mafa likes
soccer and fishing just like his father.
Mafa has a brother, Faith. Faith is an extrovert, active and a very
outspoken boy. Faith's academic performance, like his brother's is viewed as
adequate. He struggles with Mathematics at school but is good in languages.
He loves his father dearly and looks up to his father and wants to follow in
his footsteps. Like his father, his short temperament always leads to
conflict with his brother Mafa.
