Mid-Year Examination Paper 2019
Section A : Reading Comprehension [20]
Read the extract from The Next Time You See Me, written by Holly Jones and answer the
questions that follow.
Emily Houchens watched as Christopher Shelton, who sat in a desk two rows up and one over from her
own, leaned back and smoothly slid his notebook over his shoulder, so that the boy sitting behind him
could read what was written there. This second boy, Monty, who was Christopher’s best friend, began to
quake (shake) with suppressed laughter. The notebook, which Christopher showed Monty, was retracted
(pulled back); an open hand took its place, waiting expectantly, and Monty softly gave him a high five:
Good one. Mrs Mitchell, who was pacing in her predictable way up and down the aisles while the
students worked, had missed the whole exchange, and Emily tucked her chin into her chest to hide the
smile on her face. Christopher was always lucky. He was like an action hero in a movie. Things always
worked out for him.
“Five more minutes,” Mrs Mitchell announced, and Emily dragged her attention back to the sheet of
paper on her desktop and the meagre lines she had written in response to the prompt. It was a Friday,
the day their English class focused on test-taking strategies, which everyone hated—even Mrs Mitchell,
Emily suspected. One of the students read:
a. Select an important emotion or image communicated in the novel A Separate Peace.
b. Imagine how a painter might render this same emotion or image on a canvas. Describe this imagined
painting, detailing how and why this emotion or symbol is conveyed by choices related to space, colour,
texture, and shape.
Now, as Mrs Mitchell resumed her place at the front of the classroom, Emily brought her paragraph to a
hasty (quick) conclusion (ending) and set her pencil down. Her underarms prickled with heat, and a
lump of anxiety formed in her throat. Stupid, to let herself get distracted again by Christopher. The
open-response questions were for marks.

“Cross your t’s and dot your i’s,” Mrs Mitchell said. The chairs squeaked as students shifted, and there
was a chorus of sighs. “Let’s read some of these aloud today and discuss them. Can I get a volunteer?”
Emily let her hair hang over her face. Not me, not me, not me, she willed.
She heard snickering (laughing and giggling) and peeked (looked) through her fringe. Monty was poking
Christopher between the shoulder blades with the eraser end of his pencil, and Christopher jumped up
in his seat. His hand shot up. Mrs Mitchell looked at him warily.(suspiciously) “Yes, Christopher?”
“I’ll read mine,” he said, shooting a satisfied glance back at Monty, who put his head down on the
desktop as if a game of seven-up had started. Emily could hear him wheezing with laughter.
“Go ahead,” said Mrs Mitchell.
Christopher stood and held his notebook in front of him like an orator.( a person who speaks well) “In A
Separate Peace, Finn decides to wear a pink shirt...”
The rest of the words which were spoken by Christopher were so inappropriate, especially in Mrs
Mitchell’s class.
There was a stunned silence. The students exchanged glances, delighted and disbelieving, then shifted
their attention back to Mrs Mitchell, primed for the inevitable explosion. Her face had become very red,
as it always did when she was flustered, and her hands were shaking. Emily ached with second-hand
embarrassment. After that he said something nasty to make Emily cry.
“You’re such a cry baby,” he added. “Go home to your mommy and cry some more.”
“Go to the back of the room and take a seat,” Mrs. Mitchell said in a quavering (shaky) voice. “Stay
there. Don’t leave when the bell rings.”
Christopher’s neck glowed suddenly with its own bright heat, and he moved as if to hunch down and grab
his books from beneath his desk.
“Go on,” Mrs Mitchell said. “Leave your books.”
“Ok,” he said. He sauntered (walked slowly) down the aisle between his row and Emily’s, and she
couldn’t help but watch him.
He had always been kind to her— that is, unlike others in their grade. They’d shared a table for a
semester in seventh-grade science class, both of them smart enough and serious enough to complete Mr
Wieland’s assignments successfully. His eyes were bright blue. She had never seen such blue eyes.
