Questions 11 – 18 are based on the following text.
No one likes getting less than their fair share, as anyone who has had to
share out a pizza or a cake at a kid’s party will know. It’s easy enough if there 11
four or eight mouths to feed—you just cut straight 12 the middle twice and
divide the quarters in half if necessary. 13 what if there are three or six? It’s
hard to judge those by eye. Geometry 14 the problem: make one cut from the
centre to the edge then, 15 the knife, measure the length of this cut to give you
the radius of the pizza. Starting 16 this first cut, go round the pizza’s edge bythe same distance and make 17 second cut, then repeat until you end up
with six equal parts, or three if you miss 18 a cut each time.

Thank goodness for YouTube! Just a few years back, music videos
were dying a slow death (22). Reality shows were taking over their airtime. The
lack of originality made watching music videos a tiresome affair (23). However the
Internet, among other things, has given music videos a second lease of life (24).

SERI MENANTI Seri Menanti is the Royal Town of Negeri Sembilan, which lies 30 km east of
Seremban. Folklore has it that Raja Melewar, the first ruler of Negeri Sembilan, camefrom Sumatra. On his arrival at the new land, he was so enchanted with the rolling
green hills that he named it Seri Menanti, which means ‘an abode of serenity’. Thus,
began the life of a royal town which even today, continues to delight visitors.At the foothills of the jungle-clad terrain, enveloped by the cool mountain air,
lies an ancient wooden palace - the Seri Menanti palace. Rebuilt in 1908, after the
original one burnt down, the Minangkabau-inspired Palace has now been converted into
a Royal Museum. A striking feature of the building is its 99 pillars that represent the 99warriors of the past. Another, is its three-storey central tower. The first floor of the
tower was occupied by the Royal Family, and the second by the Ruler. The top was theroyal treasure house and the repository of royal archives.

The Lake Isle of Innisfree by William Butler Yeats
I will arise and go now, and go to Innisfree,
And a small cabin build there, of clay and wattles
made.
Nine bean-rows will I have there, a hive for the honey bee
And live alone in the bee-loud glade.
And I shall have some peace there, for peace comes droppingslow,
Dropping from the veils of the morning to where the cricket
sings;There midnight’s all a glimmer, and noon a purple
glowAnd evening full of the linnet’s wings.
I will arise and go now, for always night and day
I hear lake water lapping with low sounds by the
shoreWhile I stand on the roadway, or on the pavements grey,
I hear it in the deep heart’s core.

“Our late chief has gone back to our ancestors,” he said, “leaving behind him
three sons. We have mourned for him for one hundred days. Now is the time to appointa new chief. The oldest son, Galau, shall be chief over us. I pray that he will rule us
wisely.”
“Galau is a good fellow,” Umat called out. “But he’s a bit soft-boned. What usewould he be as a chief?”
“A chief doesn’t have to be a strong man!” one of the elders answered. “Your
late father was very old, but he was the best chief we have ever had.”“Ah, we were just lucky that there was no war! I respect my late father very
much, but he would have been useless in a fight.”
Everybody stared at the young man. How could he say such a thing about hisown father?
But some of the other men agreed. “Yes, what use is a weak, soft-boned chief if
there is a war?” they shouted. “Galau knows the laws and the customs, but does heknow how to fight? We want Umat for our chief!”
