1. UFAHAMU  
Soma makala yafuatayo kisha ujibu maswali.  
    Ingawa wenye hekima walisema kuwa macho hayana pazia, ni muhimu kuyatumia macho  ulivyojaliwa na muumba wako. Ndio maana ninaamini pia kuwa macho hayafilisi duka! Mimi hupenda  kuyafumbua macho pima kila nitembeapo barabarani au hataninapokaa nyumbani kusakura yaliyo karibu  nami. Lakini, kuna matukio ambayo hunisumbua na kunisikitisha. Hunisumbua kwa sababu sipati majibu  kwao; hunisikitisha kwa sababu ya athari zake na mihemko yanayoleta katika hisia zangu za ndani. Kila  mara hujiuliza: Kwa nini watu wengi huteseka namna hii duniani? Kwa nini mtu adamke mafungulia  ngombe akielekea kibaruani kila siku bila kusita huku wachache wakistarehe? Kwa nini ugonjwa  unaweza kumvamia mtu ghafla bin vuu na kumlemaza ama kumtaabisha kwa muda mrefu kabla ya  kumwuua? Kwa nini? Mbona kila mara mtu anapokuwa akisikitika kuna mwenzake huwa anacheka?  Ama maisha ni kitendawili tu? 
    Hata hivyo, linalonishangaza sana wakati mwingine ni jinsi wale wanaowafikiria kuwa  wanataabika wanavyochukulia hali zao. Utawaona akina yakhe wakitabasamu kila mara na kucheka hata  matumbo yakiwaguruma. Utawasikia wakiulizana: Umeshindaje? Kana kwamba wameshindia karibu  kwa kila hali. Mbona wasiulizane: Umeshindwaje? 
    Hii ndio sababu wakati mwingi moyo wangu huanza kuhisi kuwa labda siku ya kiyama inakaribia  zaidi. Wewe hebu fikiria, wanasayansi wanapotuambia kila mara wamevumbua hiki na kile ambacho  kitafanya maisha ya mwanadamu kuwa sahihi zaidi, ndivyo tunavyojitumbukiza katika majanga na  matatizo zaidi maishani. Hii ndio sababu hata ile dhana iliyoweka miaka ya nyuma kuwa maradhi ya  ukimwi ambayo yamekosa tiba hadi sasa kando na kuwaua mamilioni ya watu yalitokana na ajali ya  kisayansi huko Marekani inaweza kupata mashiko. Swali la kujiuliza ni: Ni kwa nini maisha  yanaposemekana kuwa yamebadilika na kuwa mazuri siku hizi ikilinganishwa na zamani mimi naona  kinyume? Au wewe waonaje? Mbona zamani, kabla ya majilio ya kila siku hizi kinaitwa Maendeleo  watu walikuwa wakitembea tu na kula matunda na mimea, watoto wakicheka na kucheza kwa furaha bila  bughudha yoyote? Au hata mbona watu hawakuwa na ubinafsi niuonao siku hizi? Maendeleo hayo  tunayoyataja kila siku unayaona kama ongezeko la chuki, uhasama, magonjwa, ubinafsi, vita, ufisadi na  hujuma dhidi ya mazingira ambamo mwanadamu anafaa kufurahia maisha. Ukweli ni kwamba maendeleo haya yamepelekea watu wengi zaidi ulimwenguni kuishi katika mitaa ya mabanda, kuwa na  nyuso za sitaki mchezo na karibu lakini usidowee.  
    Ninapotazama zaidi katika bahari ya Luja kuhusu ukweli halisi maajuzi nimeishitakia hali hii kwa  Mola ingawa sijajaliwa jibu. Hata hivyo, ninavyoendelea kulingoja jibu ndiyo ninavyoendelea kuelewa  hii dhana kuwa ulimwengu ni kokwa ya fuu huishi utamu, anayekwisha ni binadamu.

2. MUHTASARI ( alama 15 )  
Soma habari ifuatayo kisha ujibu maswali.  
    Miaka mingi ya kutawaliwa na wakoloni iliwafanya wananchi wengi kupuuza umaarufu na  uadilifu wa lugha ya Kiswahili kama lugha ya taifa kwa manufaa ya kuarifiana habari mbalimbali kwa  ufasaha na kuelewana vyema. Wakoloni pia waliwashawishi wananchi waone kana kwamba lugha ya  Kiswahili ni kwa ajili ya watu wale wasiokuwa na elimu na wale ambao hawajastaarabika kwa wale  wenye elimu na wastaarabu. Wakoloni waliwashawishi kuamini kwamba lugha ya kigeni yaani  Kiingereza ndiyo hasa lugha inayofaa kwa kujieleza na kufahamishana habari. 
    Kutokana na vikwazo hivi, si ajabu kuona hadi sasa mwananchi halisi akijitwaza kwamba hawezi  kujieleza kwa ufasaha au kumpasha mwenzie habari kwa ukamilifu mpaka atumie lugha ya Kiingereza. 
 Hata katika ofisi nyingine za serikali hadi hii leo, japo imeisha kupitishwa kisheria kwamba Kiswahili  ndiyo lugha ya taifa, bado utawaona wananchi wengine wanapendelea kuzungumza Kiingereza wao kwa  wao, ili wajulikane kwamba wana kisomo na wamestaarabika. Vikwazo vya namna hii vimewalemea  wananchi hasa kwa upande wa magazeti. Utaona mwananchi ambaye anafahamu Kiingereza kidogo sana,  akijinunulia gazeti kubwa la kiingereza na kuanza kuzurura nalo kutwa nzima bila kwambulia mengi  ndani yake. Pia utawasikia wananchi wengi wakidai kwamba hawataki kusoma magazeti ya Kiswahili  kwa sababu inakuwa vigumu kwao kuelewa mambo yaliyomo kama vile ambavyo wangalielewa katika  gazeti la kiingereza. Mabeberu wameshagundua kwamba tunao upotofu wa aina hiyo, ndipo unaona mara nyingi wanawaletea wananchi magazeti mengi ya kiingereza, mengine yakiwa na nia ya kuwapotosha  wakijua kwamba watayasoma tu mradi yameandikwa kwa lugha ya kiingereza. 
    Mara nyingi taifa fulani la kibeberu likitaka tuchukiane na taifa jingine fulani ambalo ni adui yake  kisiasa au kiuchumi, taifa hilo la kibeberu linaandika habari za uchochezi kwenye magazeti yao ya lugha  ya kiingereza mambo kuhusu taifa lile adui yake. Magazeti hayo huandikwa kwa lugha nadhifu ya  kiingereza na kuletewa wananchi hapa nchini. Maskini wananchi wengine waliopotea kwa kudhani  kiingereza ndiyo lugha nzuri ya kigazeti, wanayanunua mara moja na kuanza kuyasoma magazeti hayo na  pia kuwapa watoto wao wayasome. Matokeo yake ni kwamba bila kujitambua, wanajikuta wanayafanya  yale mabeberu waliyotarajia wayafanye, yaani wanaanza kuchukiana bure. Madhumuni ya kuandika  habari kwenye gazeti ni kutaka kuwafahamisha wasomaji mambo yaliyotokea au yanayotokea siku hata  siku kwa lugha inayofahamika na kueleweka kwa urahisi bila kumtatiza msomaji. Ikiwa basi hiyo ndiyo  madhumuni, kuna haja gani kutumia lugha ya kigeni ili kuwaeleza wasomaji wako jambo ambalo  wangaliweza kuelezwa kwa lugha yao jambo ambalo wanaifahamu vyema? Mtu aelezapo jambo kwa  maandishi akitumia lugha yake mwenyewe ambayo anaifahamu vyema undani wake, huelezea jambo  lenyewe kutoka moyoni na akilini kwa njia adili ambayo yeye mwenyewe anaielewa vyema na pia  wasomaji wake wataielewa kwa ukamilifu. Kwa jumla, jambo ambalo mwandishi ataliandika kwa lugha  ambayo ni ya asili yake na ambayo anaielewa vyema halitamtatiza msomaji wake ambaye pia anaielewa  vyema lugha hiyo.
