TEXT A FOR THE LOVE OF READING 1 Zimkhita Mlanzeli, newest member of the *FunDza Literacy Trust shares her story. I went to Jingqi Village, not knowing what to expect. I went to give a two-day reading and writing course to an unknown audience. I went armed with information, ready to teach but I came out a student. 2 The chief of Jingqi had heard that people who wanted to promote 5 literacy were coming to his village. Being a wise man, the chief believed that education meant empowerment and that meant a better way of living for the community. That was why he asked his right-hand man to mobilise the community and get a team of volunteers who would be trained to run reading clubs in different villages in the area. 10 3 I stayed an hour's drive away from Jingqi and had to travel on the harsh, dirt roads of the Eastern Cape to get there. There is only one high school in Jingqi and seven primary schools which are extremely far from each other in the surrounding villages. The schools have no facilities and no computers. Internet access is a luxury that only a few have via 15 their cell phones. The library of the high school is in bad shape. 4 On the first day I spoke to the children and found that they were hungry for information. They said they did not read because their books were from the dinosaur age and they found nothing relevant in them. They have no access to the library as the teacher who is responsible for it, 20 keeps it locked. 5 Imagine their joy when I arrived with a box full of relevant, funky novels written for teenagers! Not only are the books written in simple English, but they address issues that challenge many teenagers. It is easy to relate to the teenage characters in the books. 25 6 The group of fifteen volunteers are amazing people. Six of the women had walked long distances to get to Jingqi because of their belief. All they had were the word of the village chief and the hope that he had called them for a fruitful purpose. So, against the harsh words of their families, the ridicule of their neighbours and the 28 ºC blazing country 30 sun, they had come in search of a better future. 7 I have never seen such passion and love for reading as I saw on the faces of the people of that area. If the love for reading can transform a community so much, imagine how it could change our country!

I am a writer by profession, but I cannot find the right words to express my feelings. I left Jingqi a new person, with a refreshed passion for growing communities of readers. I will reach greater heights because of the people I worked with and our wonderful sponsors who support the improvement of literacy in South Africa. 40 [Source: http://www.fundza.co.za] Glossary: *FunDza Literacy Trust: a non-profit organisation that aims to get young South African adults to enjoy reading and develop their writing talent 1.1 Refer to paragraph 1.

TEXT C SA TRAVELLERS DO IT THE CHEAP WAY 1 Durban - Most South Africans are willing to sacrifice comfort to explore new frontiers, according to a new survey. 2 In a poll of more than 3 000 businesses, tourists and travellers, booking website Travelstart.co.za, discovered that nearly a third of South Africans spend only $21 (R219) a day while travelling, with 62 percent willing to 5 sacrifice eating out at restaurants and 42 percent willing to give up partying at bars and nightclubs. 3 After these, the indulgences tourists most commonly jettison are junk food (40 percent), alcohol (39 percent) and cigarettes (33 percent). They have also become fastidious and unceasing in the quest for a frugal flight: 42 10 percent will get more than three quotations from travel sites before booking a plane. 4 Scattered throughout the survey responses lay bits of advice for aspiring low-budgeters. ‘Make your own snacks to take with you everywhere,’ one respondent wrote. Others advised sticking to a pre-established budget, 15 combining breakfast and lunch and staying in hotels further away from bustling metropolitan areas. 5 ‘Some of the habits were surprising,’ said Nick Paul, Travelstart’s social media manager. He cited travellers’ willingness to skimp on restaurant fare as a particularly unexpected finding, saying his company thought most 20 tourists viewed dining out as a basic part of their travel experiences 6 He said the survey’s results could alter the way his company and the tourism industry would cater to tourists and travellers in the long run. 7 But despite astronomical charges for international data roaming, most Copyright reserved Please turn over ### Page 9 Downloaded from hlayiso.com English First Additional Language/P1 9 NW/November 2019 NSC – Grade 10 travellers refused to be disconnected from social media and the internet, 25 with only 27 percent saying they would forsake their smart phones and laptops for the health of their bank accounts. 8 Russell Jarvis, Travelstart’s content manager, cited the powerful role social media could play in ‘bragging rights’ while abroad.
