Downloaded from hlayiso.com English First Additional Language/P1 3 NW/June 2019 SECTION A: COMPREHENSION QUESTION 1 Read BOTH TEXT A and TEXT B and answer the set questions. TEXT A BULLYING 1. The definition of bullying by the U.S. Department of Education and by many Psychologists is explained as unwanted physical or verbal aggression directed at a specific person and repeated over a period. It also involves an imbalance of power aimed at excluding the victim from a group. 2. It is characterized by the bully repeatedly using the higher social status they 5 have over the victim to exert power and to hurt the victim. When name calling, gossiping, rumour spreading, threats, or other forms of intimidation expand from being done in person or by phone to using of emails, chat rooms, or other social media platforms, it is referred to as cyber bullying. 3. In contrast, hazing is part of initiation of the victim into a group and meanness 10 does not involve an imbalance of power. Furthermore, meanness involves hurtful behaviours between people who are equals, in social standing and otherwise. 4. Bullying does not only occur between children at school. It can also happen at work and it includes behaviour like verbal abuse, sabotaging the victim’s job 15 or work relationship, or abuse of authority. 5. Teenagers who bully others are at risk of being engaged in delinquent behaviour at school and in the community. They are likely to be involved in substance abuse and drop out of school. Bullies and victims tend to experience depression more than their peers who were never involved in bullying, which can lead 20 to academic problems, frequent absence from school and social isolation. Research also shows that bullies and their victims may have Attention Deficit Demo Copyright Reserved NW/JUNE/ENGFAL/ EMIS/6******* Please turn over
Downloaded from hlayiso.com English First Additional Language/P1 4 NW/June 2019 Hyperactivity Disorder. People who were bullies or victims of bullying as children may have poorer physical and financial health and more anti-social behaviour. Bullying or being the victim of bullying increases the risk of engaging in self- 25 harm as well as suicidal thoughts. 6. Other signs indicating that a child is bullied include missing belongings, unexplained injuries and limited number of friends. Physical symptoms include headaches, stomachaches, changes in appetite and bedwetting. 7. Child Pschychologists suggest that if parents discover that their child is bullied, 30 they should encourage him/her to talk about it. Remaining calm and reassuring the youth that they are not to blame for their victimization can go a long way in creating a climate that helps the victim feel comfortable to talk about it. The parent should obtain details about the circumstances of the bullying incident. The victim may also find it helpful to stay with other pupils or a teacher so that 35 the bully has less opportunity to engage in aggressive behaviour. 8. Other ways to stop bullying at school include parents contacting the school to seek help in alleviating the abuse, while at the same time understanding that school personell are often unaware that bullying takes place and the child may fear reprisals for having school authorities alerted. 40 9. If parents notice that their child bullies others, they may talk to him/her and share the details of the incident of which he/she was accused and listen to his/her side of the argument. Hold your child fully and fairly accountable for their actions. Spend more time with the child, monitor his/ her activities and supervise them appropriately. Such parents should contact the school to monitor 45 any further incidents and motivate the child to engage in positive social activities. 10. Bullying prevention school campaigns should involve pupils, teachers, parents and administrators to discuss means of eradicating it. Informing parents about it, can improve the victim child’s quality of life. Anti-bullying programs also teach pupils who witness bullying to stand up for victims so that bullying behaviour 50 gains stigma rather than being socially beneficial.
