TEXT 1 ARE SCHOOL UNIFORMS STILL RELEVANT? In the 1980s, public schools were often compared unfavorably to Catholic schools. Noting the perceived benefit that uniforms conferred upon Catholic schools, some public schools decided to adopt a school uniform policy. Former President of USA, Clinton provided momentum to the school uniform movement when he said, "If it means teenagers will stop killing each other over designer jackets, then our public schools should be able to require their students to wear school uniforms." There is the perception that school uniform not only sugar-coats the issue of violence in schools; but also contravenes the learners’ freedom of expression. Still the argument is strong that it discourages formation of gangs and instils discipline. It is possibly true that the uniform policy may not be easy to enforce but it is worth the effort in assisting learners to survive peer pressure. Intruders in the school can also be easily identified as they will look different. Some may feel that uniform makes students easy targets from bullies from other schools. But it also has the ability to narrow the gap between the rich and poor. When learners are dressed identically; that enhances their sense of belonging. If learners are allowed to wear clothes that suggest high price tags that has the potential to alienate those who are from the lower ladder of society. Children may get scared of coming to school because they can’t show-off. School uniform can put paid to this and improve attendance. 15 https://tvetpapers.co.za

TEXT B South Africa’s road accidents, are amongst the highest in the world. So, what is your duty as a driver? Texting and driving is deadly! If you’re travelling at 88km/h, you are driving further than the length of a football field keeping your eyes off the road! If you must text, pull over to a safe spot. The golden rule is not to text and drive. While on the road you will inevitably want to move from one lane to another. Simply indicate and in this way, you will let your fellow driver know where you are going and when. Unlike your skin, tyres should not be smooth. You are encouraged to check your tyre tread regularly. Your car could be going off the road quicker than you think with those uneven treads. Not all drivers are careful on the road and there is bound to be someone on the road who will anger you. Breathe deeply when that taxi cuts in front of you! You could end up being in an accident if you remain angry at that driver. An angry driver, is a reckless driver. A moving car is like a moving missile. If you want to make sure you and your fellow road user is safe, make a firm commitment not to get behind the wheel if you are tired or sleep as you need to give driving your full attention. As you drive along the roads you will find a board telling you, ‘speed kills’. Yes, it’s true… Stick to your speed limit by slowing down when you are required to do so. All cars come with a service record. Make sure your keep to your service intervals to protect your family from a sudden breakdown, with oncoming traffic behind you. Safety first!

https://ultradeep.co.za ENGLISH FAL GRADE 12 PROVINCIAL REVISION MATERIAL ACTIVITY 4.1- Comprehension COMPREHENSION Read the following passage and answer the questions that follow: With African fashion in vogue, home talent shines 1. When Michelle Obama and Beyonce Knowles attended high-profile events in 1 clothesmade by African designers, it was a sure sign that the continent's vibrant style has arrived on the world stage.The showcasing of clothes from home-grown African designers in stores in New York, London and Tokyo is a sign of a broader change of attitude towards a continent which is earning a 5 brighter reputation beyond stories of war and disease. 2. It has proven difficult for Africa's home grown designers to break into the mainstream fashion market because the perception has often been that products from the world's poorest continent are of low quality or ‘just not cool’. Global fashion designers like Yves Saint Laurent took inspiration from Africa 10 decades ago and more recently brands like Burberry, Louis Vuitton and Christian Dior have embraced the continent's style and broadened its appeal. 3. But consumers now want products made by Africans, not replicas produced by Western clothing chains, according to Bethlehem TilahunAlemu, who owns Ethiopian shoe company:soleRebels.The latter owns dozen stores 15 fromSingapore to Greece. “The global consumer today is hyper-aware. They want authentic and innovative ideas delivered from the authors of those ideas," Bethlehem said."We have always had incredible design and production talent here, but it was invisible. That is changing." 4. In 2010, the first annual New York African Fashion Week gave home-grown 20 designers the chance to showcase their work on the world stage.Global celebrities have endorsed African designers including Nigerian label Maki-Oh, Ghana's Osei-Duro and South Africa-based retailer Kisua.com. Nigerian lawyer-turned-designer DuroOlowu has become a well-known name in fashion circlesand has a collection at U.S. department store 25 J.C. Penney and his own boutiquestore in central London. 5. "It was a good thing to see international designers putting African fashion on the map," said Ghanaian entrepreneur Samuel Mensah, who quit his job as a fund manager to launch online clothes retailer Kisua.com."Now we're starting to see Africa taking ownership of its own cultural assets. African designers are 30 being noticed. They are stocked in international stores." 6. While attitudes abroad have changed the industry is also trying to meet latent demand for quality fashion among the largely growing black middle-class athome. “The change has been brought about by global developments, bothin the economyand communication," said Roger Gerardscreative director at 35 Vlisco,one of theworld's biggest producers of African fabric."People see other countries and other cultures more easily than 20years ago because of social media," Gerards added. 18 https://tvetpapers.co.za
https://ultradeep.co.za ENGLISH FAL GRADE 12 PROVINCIAL REVISION MATERIAL 7. Sub-Saharan Africa is the second fastest growing economic region in the world behind Asia and has a rapidly growing middle-class who have more access to 40 world trends as mobile phones and the Internet reach tens of millions more people every year. 8. The industry is prioritising middle-class consumers who value traditional manufacturing methods and local materials because it cannot compete with cheap mass-produced imports.The lack of investment in infrastructure and a failure of 45 African governments to agree to favorable trade agreements with each other have seen imports continue to rise. 9. China has grown its share of Africa's clothing imports from 16 percent in 2001 to 55 percent in 2013, while intra-African trade has remained flat at around 10 percent of imports, according to International Trade Centre data.Even companies that are showcasing African talent often have to rely on resources outside the continent. 50Vlisco is based in the Netherlands, while Kisua.com only gets half of its materials from within Africa. 10. "It is easier for me to serve a client in New York or London than in Lagos or Nairobi," said Mensah, who struggles with reliable warehousing and postal services in Africa.

https://ultradeep.co.za ENGLISH FAL GRADE 12 PROVINCIAL REVISION MATERIAL ACTIVITY 4.2– COMPREHENSION Read the following passage and answer the questions that follow: THE CLASSIC AMERICAN SNEAKER 1. Converse is an American shoe company which has been making canvas and rubber-soled shoes since the early 20th century. In 2007, Converse started producing a wide range of occupational safety shoes that resemble their regular athletic shoes. 2. In 1908, Marquis M. Converse, in his late 30s, opened the Converse Rubber Shoe Company in Massachusetts and began providing rubber- soled footwear for men, women, and children. By 1910 the company was producing 4 000 pairs of shoes daily. 3. The company's main turning point came in 1917 when the Converse All Star basketball shoe was introduced. This was a real innovation, considering that, at the time, the sport was only 25 years old. Converse tried to capture the basketball market, but the shoe was not particularly popular. Then in 1921, a basketball player named Charles H. “Chuck” Taylor adopted them as his preferred sports shoes. After a few changes the shoe got its current name with Chuck Taylor’s signature on its ankle patch. Converse offered him a job – as a salesman and an ambassador to promote the shoes around the United States. He tirelessly continued this work until shortly before his death in 1969. 4. Converse steamed ahead through the 1920s and 1930s as the nation’s interest in basketball surged. Converse and basketball became synonymous as the Converse Chuck Taylor All Star became the standard basketball shoes for professional, college, and high school teams across the country. When America entered World War II in 1941, Converse shifted production to manufacturing military boots, parkas, rubber protective suits, and ponchos for pilots and troops. 5. Also referred to as “Cons”, “Connies”, “Chuckers”, “Chucks”, “Chuckie T’s”, for decades the Chuck Taylor All Star basketball shoe only came in black or white. Under pressure from basketball teams it was decided in 1966 to add coloured and patterned shoelaces. Different materials started to appear, such as leather, suede, vinyl, denim and hemp. 6. In 1986, Converse released “The Weapon” basketball shoe, manufactured in colour schemes to match the colours of basketball teams. The unique aspect of this shoe was the leather construction throughout, including the inside heel, which was also heavily padded for comfort. 22 https://tvetpapers.co.za
https://ultradeep.co.za ENGLISH FAL GRADE 12 PROVINCIAL REVISION MATERIAL 7. Converse lost much of its apparent near-monopoly from the 1970s onward, with the surge of new competitors such as Nike, Adidas and Reebok, who introduced radical new designs to the market. 8. In January 2001 the company subsequently changed hands. Manufacturing for the American market moved to a number of Asian countries, including China, Indonesia and Vietnam. Finally, on July 9, 2003, the company was taken over by its rival, Nike. 9. Since then, the design has had a few alterations. The fabric is no longer 2-ply cotton canvas but 1-ply “textile”. It is also fashionable to sometimes lace the Converse in a variety of ways - such as putting mismatching laces. No wonder Converse is considered very “cool” by most youths. Sixty percent of all Americans own or have owned at least one pair of Converse sneakers. Some are so enthusiastic about the sneakers that they have a vast, ever-growing collection. According to The Guinness Book of World Records, Joshua Mueller has the largest collection of “Chucks” (1546 pairs).

https://ultradeep.co.za ENGLISH FAL GRADE 12 PROVINCIAL REVISION MATERIAL 6.2. CONCORD In English, all the words in a sentence that have a special kind of ‘connection’ with each other must be in the same form (that is, they must be all singular or all plural). This special connection is discussed in this section. If the noun or pronoun in the subject of the sentence is plural, then the verb must be plural. If the noun or pronoun is singular, then the verb must be singular. The subject of a sentence is a noun, a pronoun, or a phrase (a group of words without a verb) which includes a noun. For example: • The policeman (noun) arrested the robbers. • He (pronoun) arrested the robbers. • The tall, strong policeman (phrase) arrested the robbers. 6.3. ACTIVE AND PASSIVE VOICE Four steps to change a sentence from active voice to passive voice: 1. Underline the verb in the sentence. 2. Divide the sentence into a Subject – Verb – Object. 3. Begin the new sentence with the object. 4. The verb in the passive voice consists of the past participle form with some form of the verb ‘to be’ or, occasionally, the verb ‘got’ (for example,‘I was stung by a bee’.) When you are asked to change a sentence from one voice to the other, make sure that you keep the tense of the original sentence. For example: • Present continuous tense Active voice: The striker is scoring a goal. Passive voice: A goal is being scored by the striker. • Perfect tense Active voice: The striker has scored a goal. Passive voice: A goal has been scored by the striker. • Simple future tense Active voice: The striker will score a goal. Passive voice: A goal will be scored by the striker. 27 https://tvetpapers.co.za
https://ultradeep.co.za ENGLISH FAL GRADE 12 PROVINCIAL REVISION MATERIAL 6.4. DIRECT AND INDIRECT SPEECH Direct speech refers to the actual words spoken or written by someone. When someone else uses these exact words, that person ‘quotes’ them. The words are put in quotation marks and all other punctuation marks used in the sentence will be captured inside these quotation marks. When someone else reports what someone said without using the exact words, they use indirect or reported speech. Read the example of the same sentence written in direct speech and reported speech.  Direct speech: Nosipho said, “My family will be going to a soccer match next Saturday.”  Indirect/Reported speech: Nosipho said that her family would be going to a soccer match the following Saturday. Rules for changing direct speech to indirect (reported) speech 1. In sentences that start with a present tense verb, only the pronouns change. For example: Direct speech: He says: ‘I am sorry.’ Reported speech: He says (that) he is sorry. In sentences that start with a past tense verb, the tense becomes one tense ‘older’. The pronouns and time words also change. For example: Direct speech: He said: ‘I am sick.’ Reported speech: He said (that) he was sick. 2. In reported speech there are no quotation marks, but you add a conjunction such as ‘that’ or ‘whether’. For example: Sibongile asked whether I would be going to the party. 3. The tenses ‘backshift’ (go back in time) as follows: 28 https://tvetpapers.co.za
https://ultradeep.co.za ENGLISH FAL GRADE 12 PROVINCIAL REVISION MATERIAL - The simple present tense changes to the simple past tense. For example, go /goes becomes went; walk/walks becomes walked. - The past simple tense changes to the past perfect tense. For example, Went becomes had gone; walked becomes had walked. - The present perfect tense changes to the past perfect tense. For example, has gone becomes had gone; has walked becomes had walked. - The present continuous tense changes to the past continuous tense. For example, am walking becomes was walking. 4. Some pronouns change: ‘I’ becomes ‘he’ or ‘she’; ‘we’ becomes ‘they’; ‘us’ becomes ‘them’; ‘our’ becomes ‘their’. 5. In direct speech, punctuation marks are used to show tone of voice or expression. These are not used in reported speech. In reported speech, tone and expression are sometimes shown through the use of words. For example: Direct speech: ‘We’ve won the competition!’ the boys shouted. Reported speech: The boys shouted that they had won the competition. 6. Time words change. For example: - ‘now’ becomes ‘then’ - ‘today’ becomes ‘that day’ - ‘tomorrow’ becomes ‘the next day’ - ‘last week/month/year’ becomes ‘the week/month/year before’ - ‘next week/month/year’ becomes ‘the following week/month/year’. 7. The words ‘this’ and ‘that’ change to ‘these’ and ‘those’ 6.5. CONJUNCTIONS It is useful to be able to combine short sentences into longer ones, not only to answer a question in the Language paper, but when you write a report, a letter or an essay, for example. 29 https://tvetpapers.co.za
https://ultradeep.co.za ENGLISH FAL GRADE 12 PROVINCIAL REVISION MATERIAL 6.6. APOSTROPHE In writing, the apostrophe sign (’) is used for two purposes:  Firstly, the apostrophe is used to show that letters have been left out (for example, ‘do not’ becomes ‘don’t’; ‘I will’ becomes ‘I’ll’; ‘it is’ becomes ‘it’s’). Another name for the shortened form of the word is the contracted form (i.e. the word has shrunk, or contracted).  Secondly, the apostrophe is used to show that something relates to or belongs to or is possessed by someone or something (e.g. ‘Sam’s book’; ‘the players’ uniforms’). In this case the apostrophe is used before the ‘s’ in the singular and after the ‘s’ in the plural. 6.7. NEGATIVE SENTENCES, QUESTIONS AND TAGS There are many ways that a sentence written as a positive statement changes when it is written in the negative: • Two words need to be added: (i) a form of the auxiliary verb ‘do’; and (ii) ‘not’. An auxiliary verb is used with another verb to form negative sentences or questions or tenses. In English, the auxiliary or helping verbs are be, have and do. • The tense of the auxiliary verb must be the same as the tense of the verb in the positive sentence. For example, ‘understands’ becomes ‘does not understand’ (simple present tense); ‘failed’ becomes ‘did not fail’ (simple past tense). • In the negative form, the ending of the main verb changes. For example, ‘excludes’ becomes ‘does not exclude’; ‘failed’ becomes ‘did not fail’. • In the present tense, the third person singular form of the auxiliary verb ‘do’ is ‘does’. **In English, the auxiliary or helping verbs are be, have and do. 6.8. VOCABULARY AND SPELLING The meanings of words; knowledge of different forms of the same word; spelling of words and degrees of comparison. In this section of the exam there are usually some grammar questions that require you to know:  The meaning of particular words;  How a word changes its form as a noun, verb, adjective or adverb.  For example, ‘competition’ (noun); ‘compete’ (verb); ‘competitive’ (adjective); ‘competitively’ (adverb); 30 https://tvetpapers.co.za

Body language make up 50 to 100% of a conversation, whether we mean it to or not. Since people do not always say what they mean, Robert Phipps, body language expert on a TV show, tells you how to interpret this non-verbal clues. 2. Eye contact is one of the most important aspects of body language. Most of 5 us are comfortable with a few second's eye contact, but anything longer can seem aggressive or intense. Equally, if you are talking to a friend who looks away a lot, assume he is bored. 3. If someone is on the same wavelength as you, he will often adopt the same posture as you. So if people start too copy you, it means they are open to 10 your ideas. Most people cross their arms if they are feeling defensive or negative. So, even if someone says he agrees with you and he still crosses his arms, he really does not agree. 4. If you are training someone, it is usefull to know how his mind works. If a 15 person's eyes move up and to the left while you are talking to him, he processes information visually. Yesterday, Robert Phipps said, "Mary, your eyes are the windows to your soul." 5. When a person is lying he tends to become generally less expressive with his hands, but makes a lot of shrugging and hand-to-face movements. [Adapted from Reader's Digest, March 2014] 34
