Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, or D on your answer sheet to indicate the correct answer to each of the questions from 30 to 34

Six months ago I made a rash promise The leader of the youth club in our village rang

me in March saying, “We’re thinking of running a children’s playscheme for a day in October half-term Would you be prepared to help?” My response was “Sure, why not?”

In truth I was a little flattered to be asked, even though working as a care assistant with old people hardly qualified me for the role Still, I duly put the date in my diary and of course I forgot all about it I don’t know if you’ve noticed this but time has a habit of speeding along faster than a police car chasing a robber and, before I knew it, the day was dawning

I arrived at the youth centre that morning feeling full of trepidation There was a gang of

12 helpers including me and each pair had been allocated a particular age group Mine was the 10 to 11 year olds Even with the planning meeting I had attended the week before, I worried about whether I was up to the task Why hadn’t I read through the copious lesson plans we were given beforehand? And wasn’t the average 10-year-old more interested in the latest Play Station game than making things with paper and glue? All too quickly the children began arriving The look of relief on parents’ faces as they handed their offspring over to us was quite comical A handful of the children were already members of the club but the other forty five or so were from the local primary schools Again I asked myself why I had elected to spend a day with all these ‘little monsters’ especially when I have two all of my own to contend with!

I needn’t have worried of course as it turned out to be a marvellous day We watched entertaining dvd clips, learned ‘action’ songs, made clay pyramids, decorated biscuits, played memory games and spent some time in quiet reflection I say ‘we’ because I rediscovered my inner child and joined in all the activities

The particular highlight for me was the final rendition of “He’s got the whole world in his hands” in the closing part of the day The children knew the words and actions off by

heart and sang so loudly it was almost enough to bring the roof down It’s difficult to explain those moments; only that the body tingles with the pleasure of having witnessed something so magical

Of course there were also moments of great poignancy I found it difficult to stop thinking of one little girl, who mentioned oh-so-casually that her mum was in hospital and would be there for a long time It’s easy for us adults to idealise childhood and forget that some children have their own burden of anxieties and concerns When I got home utterly exhausted, still with modelling clay under my fingernails, I reflected on what a privilege it had been

There was one disappointment for the children and that was that the playscheme was only running for a day, and not the whole week As I said farewell to my group, one of the children turned and said “Can we do it again in the next holiday, Miss?” My response was, “Sure, why not?”

Humans are consuming hundreds of wild animals “to extinction” for meat, ornaments, medicines and pets, according to scientists A global crisis sparked by unregulated or illegal hunting and trapping means 301 different species – from monkeys to bats – are now in danger, a new study claims Experts at Oregon State University in the US, who conducted the research, have warned the decline is having a significant environmental impact and undermining the food security of millions of people in Asia, Africa and

South America “Our goal is to raise awareness of this global crisis Many of these animals are at the brink of extinction The illegal smuggling in wildlife and wildlife products is run by dangerous international networks and ranks among trafficking in arms, human beings and drugs in terms of profits,” said study leader Professor William Ripple

Researchers concluded that bold changes and political will were needed to diminish the

possibility of humans consuming many of the world’s wild mammals to the point of extinction Of the species affected, 126 were primates, more than any other group, according to a team of researchers writing in the journal Royal Society Open Science Animal rights activists said the study should serve as a wake-up call to protect endangered species from extinction “This research should be heart-stopping news for anyone who cares about wild animal welfare and the health of our planet Urgent action needs to be taken by governments across the globe to protect these hundreds of threatened species from extinction,” Dr Neil D’Cruze, Head of Wildlife Research and

Policy at World Animal Protection told The Independent

The authors found that wild meat made up a crucial part of global diets, with an

estimated 89,000 tonnes harvested annually in the Brazilian Amazon alone They also

found overhunting to be mainly associated with poorer countries, where hunters might find it harder to feed their families The research also showed much of the wild animal meat was sold in street markets and destined to become urban restaurant delicacies

In 2010, another study found that about five tonnes of bushmeat was smuggled weekly

in tourist luggage through Charles de Gaulle airport in Paris, France Dr D’Cruze said:

“There are also the too often forgotten welfare impacts and high levels of suffering that animals, like primates, endure when captured and slaughtered for bush meat or the illegal wildlife trade We must prevent the extinction of these incredible species, but we must also eradicate the pain and suffering being inflicted on millions of animals as we

speak.” Large carnivores and herbivores over 10 kg comprised a small percentage of

the animals listed but were hit more severely by overhunting, it was claimed Scientists also warned the loss of large mammals could result in population explosions of prey animals, greater risk of disease and economic impact on humans The study found that

57 large species of even-toed ungulates, including hippopotamus, wild yak, camel and marsh deer, were threatened by hunting Smaller mammals were said to play crucial roles in dispersing seeds, pollinating plants and controlling insects Wild ox, camels, pigs, fruit bats, rhinoceroses, tapirs, deer, tree kangaroos, armadillos, pangolins, rodents and big cats, were all said to be affected
