Questions 1 through 5 are based on the text below.
Choose the one best answer to each question on the
basis of what is stated or implied in the text. Mark
the answer on your answer sheet.
Exhausted, hungry and thirsty, four-year-old Romina and her six-
year-old brother Daniel were found by rescuers today after wandering for
16 days in a mountain wilderness in the north of Argentina.
They had left their home to look for their parents, who were round-
ing up cattle, and could not find their way home.
“We survived by eating apples, which were very tasty”, said Daniel.
They were unlucky to get lost but fortunate not to be attacked by the
pumas that inhabit the mountains.
Both tots are now in hospital, suffering from malnutrition – the con-
dition caused by not getting enough of or the right kind of food. They also
have injuries to their feet because they were walking barefoot. However,
doctors are confident that they will make a full recovery.
