She delivered the message. 5 ‘Where is your master the farmer?’ asked Gabriel, kindling with the idea of getting employment that seemed to strike him now. “Tisn’t a master; ‘tis a mistress, shepherd.’ ‘A woman farmer?’ ‘Ay, a b’lieve, and a rich one too! said a bystander. ‘Lately ‘a came 10 here from a distance. Took on her uncle’s farm, who died suddenly. used to measure his money in half-pint cups. They say now that she’ve business in every bank in Casterbridge, and thinks no more of playing pitch-and-toss sovereign than you and I do pitch-halfpenny – not a bit in the world, shepherd. 15 “That’s she, back upon the pony,’ said Maryann; ‘wi’ her face a-covered up in that black cloth with holes in it.’ Oak, his features smudged, grimy, and undiscoverable from the smoke and heat, his smock-frock burnt into holes and dripping with water, the ash stem of his sheep-crook charred six inches shorter, advanced with 20 humility stern adversity had thrust upon him up to the sight female form in the saddle.

Leading on a man you don’t care for is not a praiseworthy action. And even, Miss Everdene, if you seriously inclined towards him, you might have let him find out in some way of true loving-kindness, and not by 5 sending him a valentine’s letter’. Bathsheba laid down the shears. ‘I cannot allow any man to – to criticize my private conduct!’ she exclaimed. ‘Nor will I for a minute. So you’ll please leave the farm at the end of the week!’ 10 It may have been a peculiarity – at any rate it was a fact – that when Bathsheba was swayed by an emotion of an earthly sort her lower lip trembled: when by a refined emotion, her upper or heavenward one. Her nether lip quivered now. ‘Very well, so I will,’ said Gabriel calmly. He had been held to her by 15 a beautiful thread which it pained him to spoil breaking, rather than by a chain he could not break. ‘I should be even better pleased to go at once,’ he added. ‘Go at once then, in Heaven’s name!’ said she, her eyes flashing at his, though never meeting them. ‘Don’t let me see your face any more.’ 20 [Chapter 20] 1.2.1 Explain why has Bathsheba been looking for Gabriel at the beginning.

Taiba isn’t even pretending to work, and he’s still talking. Talking directly to Faceman. No one does that. “You want to beat me?” He is challenging him. “That Papa Mavuso –” Faceman makes a sound that’ like roaring, and he’s charging at Taiba now, the way an angry kraal dog will go for another that’s come sniffing 5 around its territory. I have a moment of wanting to be deaf and blind, wanting the dense darkness of our rest times, which I mostly hate, so I don’t have to see. “Mavuso! Don’t speak to me about that stupid old man. Useless foreign boys he send us.” 10 I have to look, even if I don’t want to. Faceman has grabbed Taiba with one hand, and the other is a fist, pumping like a machine, driving into Taiba faster than the angry words. If he wasn’t holding Taiba up to hit him, the kid would have fallen after the first punch. “Spike Maphosa, he is going to come, make you stop, you Faceman.” 15 Taiba is panting, and grunting with every blow, so that he can hardly get the words out, but still he keeps on with his talking, true crazy talk now. “Spike Maphosa, he is saving the boys in this mine, and all the other boys –” [Chapter 2] 2.1.1 Choose a description from COLUMN B that matches a name in COLUMN A.

Then it comes, like a knife. Fear of the sort I haven’t felt since the first time I was sent into the earth. What if I go underground again and don’t come back up? I would miss everything of Katekani, everything 5 of us, the two of us together. To stop such thoughts I try to concentrate on getting us a lift. While it’s still not properly light, no one even slows down. Later a few drivers turn their heads to look at us when I sign that we want a ride. They don’t stop. 10 I don’t sign to the big dark-grey car. It’s too clean and shiny. A rich man’s car. It stops. The dark-tinted window on our side rolls open silently. The driver leans across, pointing at Taiba but speaking to me. 15 “That one should be in school. You guys want work? Get in. I can take you to a good place.” I grab Taiba’s arm to stop him going forward and getting in. “No! Leave us!” I shout at the driver. He curses. Another car is coming. The window rolls up and he drives 20 away. “Why you say no?” Taiba wants to know. “He wasn’t safe. [Chapter 10] Copyright reserved Please turn over

If you had wanted supper you would have been here to help me prepare it’. I stared at her in dismay. Aisha showed no reaction. I could see from my mother’s face that she would not be swayed in this matter. We lingered by the kitchen, which 5 was a separate and small hut, away from the main house. My mother had prepared pumpkin leaves with groundnut stew, my favourite. Then she took another pot and started dishing out dried-fish stew. I thought I would collapse with hunger. She covered the food and took it inside the house together with the thickened maize porridge, nsima. The food was for my father. Mother then came back into the kitchen. 10 She put the nsima, vegetables and fish that had remained on a plastic plate and started eating. Aisha and I watched her hungrily as she swallowed each mouthful. I thought I would cry, but as Aisha would probably have laughed about it, I kept quiet. We learned a lot from that experience, but the most valuable lesson was ‘to be more careful next time’. 15 Mother’s punishment had not deterred us from going to the stream. 4.1.1 Complete the following sentences by using the words in the list below.
