5) I speak a little ………, but I want to learn to read and write it (Vietnam)

C. READING: (2m) Read the passage and answer the questions below.

“Mary came to Africa two years ago because she wanted to teach people about modern health care. She will

be leaving in about two months; she wishes she could stay longer, but it’s time for her to go home.” “Her

work here has been very interesting. She is learning so much. She always wishes that there would be more

hours in the day so that I could do more. Maybe it’s silly, but she worries about what will happen to the

villagers after she leaves. She wishes her students remembered all the things she has tried to teach them.

She’s become so close to the people here, she wishes she could take them home with her! But of course

that’s impossible. She wishes more people joined the Peace Corps. It’s so rewarding, and there’s so much

work to be done.
