Suck and I hide you, my gentle one

When I am dead and gone, gentle one


Feed on little blades of grass like cow, my beloved

PASSAGE

wonderful sight. Each pyramid has four sides and each side look like a triangle. The flour of a pyramid is square.
There is a big entrance to the pyramid. Inside each there are many rooms.
Pyramids are tombs in which the body of the Egyptian kings, pharaohs were buried. Egyptians believed their
kings, were like gods. They placed the bodies of their kings in the pyramids because they wanted them to live in
peace after death.
The bodies of the pharaohs were treated with special oil so they did not decay. These preserved bodies are
called mummies.
The pyramids were built over four thousand years ago. They were built from strong stones. The pyramids
were constructed using special stones. These stones kept the pyramids cool despite the hot weather in Egypt. The
weather in Egypt is hot and humid. The temperature in the pyramids usually does not change. It stays the same,
around twenty degrees Celsius.
When pyramids were built, all the chambers were beautifully decorated. The pharaoh’s valuables, like golden
swords, were kept next to the body. The pharaoh’s beds, clothes, pictures and anything else the people believed the
king needed after death were put in the room. It is said that the servants lived in some of the rooms to serve their
pharaoh.

1. UFAHAMU (ALAMA 15)

Soma taarifa hii kisha ujibu maswali yanayofuata.

Alipokuwa akiukemea utamaduni na dhana za kikabila katika nyimbo zake, marehemu Bob Marley
aliufananisha ubepari na “wanyama wala watu.” Katika wimbo “Babylon System” (yaani mfumo wa
kibepari), Marley alisema kuwa utamaduni huo ndio mzawa wa matatizo yote ya kiutawala ambayo
yalikuwa yakiyakumba mataifa ya Weusi katika karne ya 20, wakati nchi zao zilikuwa zikitawaliwa na
nchi za mataifa ya Ulaya.

Kwa mantiki hiyo, pengine Marley alikuwa na maono kuwa Afrika haingejikomboa kutoka kwa utumwa
wa Kizungu, ikiwa ingeendelea kuziabudu na kuzishadidia tamaduni za Kimagharibi.

Utabiri huo nauoanisha na yanayoendelea nchini, ambapo serikali ya Jubilee imeonekana kushindwa
kabisa kuikabili saratani ya ufisadi, ambayo inahatarisha kuliangamiza taifa hili lenye uchumi dhalili.

Donda hili linazidi kuyatandaza mabawa yake kutoka, tisho kuu likiwa ni uvamizi wa taasisi “takatifu”
ambazo tunazitegemea kulikabili donda hilo.

Ni nani tutategemea kukabiliana na rushwa ikiwa taasisi kama Bunge, Tume ya Maadili na Kukabiliana na
Ufisadi (EACC) kati ya zingine muhimu zimepakwa tope na saratani hiyo?

Kimsingi yote tunayopitia ni matunda ya uasi wa tamaduni za Kiafrika na uegemezi wa mifumo ya


Kizungu kama mihimili ya jamii na nchi zetu.
https://teacher.co.ke/notes

Ndoto za watetezi wa Uafrika na nafasi ya Weusi kama marehemu Malcom X na Martin Luther King,
zilikuwa ni kuona kuwa wameungana kabisa kukabiliana na matatizo yaliyowakabili bila kuzingatia
mazingara waliyokuwemo.

Pindi tu baada ya mataifa mengi ya Kiafrika kujinyakulia uhuru wao katika miaka ya hamsini na sitini,
viongozi wakuu walioziongoza nchi hizo kama Kwame Nkrumah, Jomo Kenyatta, Mwalimu Julius
Kibarage Nyerere kati ya wengine walianza harakati za kuliunganisha bara hili na kubuni Muungano wa
Nchi za Kiafrika (OAU) japo ndoto hiyo haikufikia.

Kwa msingi huo, mhimili mkuu wa kiutawala ungekuwa ni mfumo wa kisosholisti, ambao ungekuwa
nguzo kuu ya kuyaunganisha mataifa hayo.

Hata hivyo, migawanyiko mikubwa ilianza kushuhudiwa, huku baadhi ya mataifa yakianza kukabiliwa na
mapigano ya wenyewe kwa wenyewe. Huo ndio ulikuwa mwanzo wa kutaasisika kwa maovu yote
tunayoshuhudia sasa: ufisadi na tamaa ya kuogofya kutoka kwa viongozi wetu.

2. MUHTASARI

Soma taarifa ifatayo kwa makini kisha ujibu maswali yanayofuata.

Nchi nyingi duniani zimetia saini mkataba wa umoja wa mataifa kuhusu haki za watoto.
Haki ni mambo mema ambayo watoto wanastahili kutendewa. Kwa kutia saini, nchi hizi
zimetangaza kujitolea kwao kuzilinda na kuhahakikisha kuwa hakuna ukiukaji wake na
kuwa watoto wote katika himaya zao wananufaika kutokana na haki hizi.

Miongoni mwa haki hizi ni kuwa kila mtoto ana haki ya kuishi na kupata chakula cha kutosha na chenye
viinilishe bora. Pili, kila mtoto ana haki ya kupata elimu. Elimu hii inafaa kutolewa bila ada na iwe
inayofaa na inayopatikana kwa urahisi.Kisha kila mtoto ana haki ya kutopigwa na kutodunishwa kwa
namna yoyote, iwe kitabaka, kirangi, kijinsia na vinginevyo. Mtoto ana haki pia kutolazimishwa kufanya
kazi za kiutumwa, nzito na za kushurutishwa. Hali kadhalika, ana haki ya kuishi katika nyumba au makazi
bora na salama, kutunzwa na kulindwa dhidi ya hali yoyote inayoweza kumhatarisha. Anatakiwa

ashirikishwe katika kufanya maamuzi. Fauka ya haya, ana haki ya kupata huduma za afya,mahitaji
maalum,michezo, upendo na habari. Isitoshe,anastahili kuheshimiwa kimawazo na kihisia. Haki hizi
zinatakiwa kulindwa na kila mwanajamii, hivyo serikali za mataifa mengi zimeshirikisha haki hizi katika
katiba za nchi zao na sheria zao.

Walakini haki hizi bado zinakiukwa. Watoto wengi kote duniani bado wananyimwa haki zao. La
https://teacher.co.ke/notes

kusikitisha na kukera ni kuwa wanaotarajiwa kuwa vigogo vya kuzilinda haki hizi, ndio wanaoongoza
kuzikiuka. Kila siku tunasikia na kushuhudia visa vya watoto kupigwa, kunyimwa chakula, kufanyishwa
kazi kipunda, kuteswa, kuishi katika mazingira hatari, na hata kuuawa. Kuna watoto wengi wanaolala nje,
wengine hawapati chakula licha ya kuwa wanatakiwa kupata chenye lishe bora. Kwao kutarajiwa mlo
awamu tatu kwa siku ni njozi kwani hata awamu moja ni adimu kupata.

Watoto wengi katika mataifa yenye fujo na ghasia hutekwa na kutumikishwa vitani. Viongozi katika
mataifa haya hawafanyi kitu ila kutazama tu wakati watoto wanaotakiwa kuwalinda wanageuzwa kuwa
mibaba ya kuua na kuuana. Watoto hawa huvishwa magwanda ambayo miili yao minyonge haiwezi
kuyahimili. Pia, huvalishwa mabuti ya kijeshi ambayo ni mizigo mizito ya kubeba mbali na bunduki
zinazokaribia kuwazidi uzani wakati wanatakiwa kuwa wamelindwa majumbani, na shuleni na wazazi wao
na serikali.

Jukwaa la vijiji vya mataifa ya ulimwengu wa tatu limesheheni watoto wasioenda shule kwa sababu ya
lindi la ufukara uliokithiri. Elimu ya bure inayogusiwa katika haki za watoto haipo. Wanaong’ang’ana
iwepo ni kana kwamba ni waota ndoto mchana. Jiulize watoto wangapi sasa hivi wamo majumbani bila
kwenda shuleni kutokana na ukosefu wa karo? Wangapi wamo mitaani wakivuta na kunusa gundi huku
wakiombaomba vishilingi?

Hali ilivyo sasa hivi inadai kuwa mimi na wewe tufanye hima na kuungana mikono kutafuta suluhisho la
kudumu kuhusu haki za watoto. Twapasa kuhimiza serikali zetu kufanya kila ziwezavyo kuhakikisha
kuwa watoto wote wamo shuleni. Nasi tushirikiane kutoa huduma kwa watoto na kukomesha dhuluma,
mateso na dhiki kwao. Haitoshi kupeleka miswada mbungeni kuhusu haki za watoto na kuipitisha kuwa
sheria. Twastahili kubadilisha misimamo yetu kuhusu haki hizi na kuzilinda kwa dhati bali si kwa chati.
