Answer the questions set on BOTH extracts, i.e. QUESTION 1.1 and QUESTION 1.2. 1.1 EXTRACT A [Utterson set off to Dr Lanyon’s house.] The solemn butler knew and welcomed him; he was subjected to no stage of delay, but ushered direct from the door to the dining- room where Dr Lanyon sat alone over his wine. This was a hearty, healthy, dapper, red-faced gentleman, with a shock of hair prematurely white, and a boisterous and decided manner. 5 At sight of Mr Utterson, he sprang up from his chair and welcomed him with both hands. The geniality, as was the way of the man, was somewhat theatrical to the eye; but it reposed on genuine feeling. For these two were old friends, old mates both at school and college, both thorough respecters of themselves who thoroughly 10 enjoyed each other’s company. After a little rambling talk, the lawyer led up to the subject which so disagreeably pre-occupied his mind. ‘I suppose, Lanyon,’ said he ‘you and I must be the two oldest friends that Henry Jekyll has?’ ‘I wish the friends were younger,’ chuckled Dr Lanyon. 15 ‘But I suppose we are. And what of that? I see little of him now.’ Indeed?’ said Utterson. ‘I thought you had a bond of common interest.’ ‘We had,’ was the reply. ‘But it is more than ten years since Henry Jekyll became too fanciful for me.’ 20 He began to go wrong, wrong in mind; and though of course I continue to take an interest in him for old sake’s sake, as they say, I see and I have seen devilish little of the man.

(3) AND EXTRACT B 1.2 [Utterson accompanies Poole to Jekyll’s house.] It was a wild, cold, seasonable night of March, with a pale moon, lying on her back as though the wind had tilted her, and a flying wrack of the most diaphanous and lawny texture. The wind made talking difficult, and flecked the blood into the face. It seemed to have swept the streets unusually bare of passengers, besides; for Mr Utterson thought he had never seen that part 5 of London so deserted. He could have wished it otherwise; never in his life had he been conscious of so sharp a wish to see and touch his fellow- creatures; for, struggle as he might, there was borne in upon his mind a crushing anticipation of calamity. The square, when they got there, was all full of wind and dust, and the thin trees in the garden were lashing 10 themselves along the railing. Poole, who had kept all the way a pace or two ahead, now pulled up in the middle of the pavement, and, in spite of the biting weather, took off his hat and mopped his brow with a red pocket-handkerchief. But for all the hurry of his coming, these were not the dews of exertion that he wiped away, but the moisture of some strangling anguish; for his face was white, and his voice when he spoke, harsh and broken. [The last night] 1.2.1 How is Poole related to Dr Jekyll? (1) 1.2.2 Refer to lines 1–5. (It was a … of passengers besides.)

EXTRACT C 2.1 [The priest is offered a room in Mrs Lithebe’s house.] I have a place for you to sleep, my friend, in the house of an old woman, a Mrs Lithebe, who is a good member of our church. She is an Msutu, but she speaks Zulu well. She will think it an honour to have a priest in the house. It is cheap, only three shillings a week, and you can have your meals there with the people of the Mission. 5 Now there is the bell. Would you like to wash your hands? They washed their hands in a modern place, with white, basin, and water cold and hot, and towels worn but very white, and a modern lavatory too. When you were finished, you pressed a little rod, and the water rushed in as though something was broken. It would 10 have frightened you if you had not heard of such things before. They went into a room where a table was laid and there he met many priests, both white and black, and they sat down after grace and ate together. He was a bit nervous of the many plates and knives and forks, but watched what others did, and used the things likewise. 15 He sat next to a young rosy-cheeked priest from England, who asked him where he came from, and what it was like there. And another black priest cried out – I am also from Ixopo. My father and mother are still alive there, in the valley of the Lufafa.

What will the poor devils do in the winter? Men come, and machines come, and they start building rough 5 houses for us. That Dubula is a clever man, this is what he said they would do.

Answer the questions set on BOTH extracts, i.e. ‘QUESTION 6.1 and QUESTION 6.2. EXTRACT I 5.1 [The invitation to the girls from school to view the doll house.] ‘And I’m to choose who’s to come and see it first. Mother said I might.’ For it had been arranged that while the doll’s house stood in the courtyard they might ask the girls at school, two at a time, to come and look. Not to stay to tea, of course, or to come traipsing through the house. But just to stand quietly in the courtyard while Isabel pointed out the beauties, and Lottie and 5 Kezia looked pleased … But hurry as they might, by the time they had reached the tarred palings of the boys’ playground the bell had begun to jangle. They only just had time to whip off their hats and fall in line before the roll was called. Never mind. Isabel tried to make up for it by looking very important and mysterious and 10 by whispering behind her hand to the girls near her, ‘Got something to tell you at playtime.’ Playtime came and Isabel was surrounded. The girls of her class nearly fought to put their arms round her, to walk with her, to beam flatteringly, to be her special friend. She held quite a court under the huge pine trees at 15 the side of the playground. Nudging, giggling together, the little girls pressed up close. And the only two who stayed outside the ring were the two who were always outside, the little Kelveys. They knew better than to come anywhere near the Burnells. For the fact was, the school the Burnell children went to was not at all the 20 kind of place their parents would have chosen if there had been any choice. But there was none.

The children kept to their lairs, crowded on the beds with the doors shut. He sat and looked at the sideboard, where the plastic carnations and the mat with the picture of the Taj Mahal were in place. For the first few weeks he never spoke of her. There was the feeling, in the house, that he had wept and raged at her, that 5 boulders of reproach had thundered down upon her absence, and yet he had said not one word. He had not been to inquire where she was; Jimmy and Girlie had gone to Mohammed Ebrahim, the lawyer, and when he found out that their mother had been taken – when she was arrested, at least – to a prison in the next town, they had stood about 10 outside the big prison door for hours while they waited to be told where she had been moved from there. At last they had discovered that she was fifty miles away, in Pretoria. Jimmy asked Bamjee for five shillings to help Girlie pay the train fare to Pretoria, once she had been interviewed by the police and had been given a permit to visit her 15 mother; he put three two-shilling pieces on the table for Jimmy to pick up, and the boy, looking at him keenly, did not know whether the extra shilling meant anything, or whether it was merely that Bamjee had no change. It was only when relations and neighbours came to the house that 20 Bamjee would suddenly begin to talk. He had never been so expansive in his life as he was in the company of these visitors, many of them come on a polite call rather in the nature of a visit of condolence. 5.2.1 Refer to lines 1 and 2. ('The children kept … the doors shut.’) (a) How many bedrooms did the Bamjees’ house have? (1) (b) How many people resided in the house? (1) (c) What did this kind of house symbolise during the apartheid era? (1) 5.2.2 Refer to lines 9–10.

Still I rise You may write me down in history With your bitter, twisted lies, You may tread me in the very dirt But still, like dust, I’ll rise. Does my sassiness upset you? Why are you beset with gloom? ‘Cause I walk like I’ve got oil wells Pumping in my living room. Just like moons and like suns, With the certainty of tides, Just like hopes springing high, Still I’ll rise Did you want to see me broken? Bowed head and lowered eyes? Shoulders falling down like teardrops, Weakened by my soulful cries? Does my haughtiness offend you? Don’t you take it awful hard ‘Cause I laugh like I’ve got gold mines Diggin’ in my own backyard. You may shoot me with your words, You may cut me with your eyes, You may kill me with your hatefulness, But still, like air, I’ll rise. Does my sexiness upset you? Does it come as a surprise? That I dance like I’ve got diamonds At the meeting of my thighs? Copyright reserved Please turn over
