Questions 16-25
Read the following article and complete the graphic organizer below.

Malnutrition occurs when a person does not get the right amount of nutrients in
their diet. Conditions can range from mild to severe. Malnutrition can affect the mental and
physical health of a person. In worst case scenarios, people may even die from its effects.
Children who are malnourished suffer from stunted growth and are usually underweight.
People who dont eat enough food or those with unbalanced diet may suffer from
malnutrition. However, there are other reasons why malnutrition occurs. A disease may
prevent a person from absorbing or digesting certain nutrients. People with celiac disease
may have nutritional deficiencies because their small intestine is sensitive to gluten, hence
interfering with its ability to absorb nutrients. Cystic fibrosis is another condition leading to
malnourishment. It affects the pancreas and prevents it from producing enzymes that are
necessary for food digestion.
Signs and symptoms of malnutrition can include fatigue, dizziness, stunted growth,
brittle bones and even pre-mature death. While anybody could suffer from malnutrition, it
is more likely to occur in those who live in poor countries that suffer from natural disasters.
Poverty is the major cause of malnourishment in Mozambique while famine is a cause in
Afghanistan. Droughts and soil degradation are reasons of malnourishment in Ethiopia
Thankfully, especially in cases where the malnourishment is mild, the effects can be
reversed. A doctor or dietician might recommend changes in types and quantities of food
that a person eats. Supplements such as vitamins may be prescribed. As for those in
troubled or poverty stricken countries, we can lend a hand by donating money to
organisations working against hunger or even sponsor a child in those countries so that
sufficient food can be given to the sufferers especially the children.

32. Read the poem below and answer the questions that follow.

A Poison Tree

I was angry with my friend:

I told my wrath, my wrath did end.
I was angry with my foe:
I told it not, my wrath did grow.

And I watered it in fears,

Night and morning with my tears;
And I sunned it with smiles,
And with soft deceitful wiles.

And it grew both day and night,

Till it bore an apple bright.
And my foe beheld it shine.
And he knew that it was mine,

And into my garden stole

When the night had veiled the pole;
In the morning glad I see
My foe outstretched beneath the tree.

William Blake
