(Ni wakati wa mapumziko mafupi. Koi na Rao wameketi chini ya mti wakiwatazama wenzao wakicheza uwanjani.)

Koi: Sijui ni kwa nini siku hizi maradhi yanayohusiana na vyakula vichafu yamekuwa mengi hivi. Licha ya Roda, hata Hamisi anaendesha. (Akirusha jiwe dogo mbali kidogo)

Rao: (Akionyesha uso wa mshangao.) Ala! Hata Hamisi anaugua? Ndiyo maana hawakuja shuleni leo.(Muda unapita)Lakini kuna njia kadhaa za kupambana na magonjwa ya tumbo.

Koi: Ni kweli Rao. Kabla ya kula, ni sharti tuinawe mikono ili kuondoa uchafu. Mikono aidha hustahili kusafishwa kila baada ya kutoka msalani kujisaidia.

Rao: Naam, vyakula viliwavyo bila kupikwa kama vile matunda hustahili kuoshwa vizuri kabla ya kula. (Wamezama katika mawazo)

Koi: Nakumbuka pia mwalimu Kazamoyo akitushauri kupika vyakula kama vile nyama hadi viive vizuri.

Read the passage and then answer questions 13 to 15.
Taking care of the environment is very important so as to maintain high standards of hygiene or cleanliness. All the litter around should be picked and thrown in pits. Those that can completely burn should be burnt. Those that can rot should be used to prepare compost manure. Banana peels, leaves and kitchen refuse can easily rot. Some wastes like plastic, glass and metals can be recycled and made into new items. Some that can neither rot, burn out nor be recycled to be buried in deep pits to minimise the chances of accidents. When empty tins are left lying anyhow in the compound, they become mosquito breeding areas when it rains because they collect and keep rain water. These tins should either be buried, recycled or reused.
