Drinkplenty of water. Consult aphysician.For external use onlyWATER CYCLETranspiration is the passage of water through a plant from the roots through tothe atmosphere.Evaporation is when the sun heats up water in rivers, lakes or the ocean and turns it into vapouror steam. Water vapour in the air gets cold and changes back into liquid, forming clouds. This iscalled condensation. Precipitation occurs when so much water has condensed thatthe aircannot hold it anymore. The clouds get heavy and water falls back to the earth in the form ofrain. When water falls back to earth as precipitation, it will collect in the oceans, lakes or riversor it may end up on land.TranspirationEvaporationCollectionPrecipitationCondensationSULIT51119/2 2013 Hakcipta BPSBPSK1119/2SULITBCDTranspirationTranspirationTranspirationEvaporationEvaporationEvaporationCondensationCondensationCondensationPrecipitationPrecipitationPrecipitationCollectionCollectionCollectionSULIT61119/2 2013 Hakcipta BPSBPSK1119/2SULITMYRAPID OPERATING HOURS7.

The air is pure and flowers are everywhere. People arehappy, helpful and healthy. This is what Kathmandu should be. Not sowhen I went there.The town was dusty, many of the people had hard lifewritten on theirfaces and pettytraders were trying to make a quick dollar from tourists. Out-dated motor vehicles werespewing white smoke from inefficient engines. I had to wrap my towel round my face to feelcomfortable, breathing. I was there on my way to the base camp of Annapurna, a mountainin Nepal.The next day, I proceeded to Pokara, the starting point of thetrek. I had the choice offlying there or going by bus through narrow roads and ravines. I decided to fly as I wasadvised that the bus ride was dangerous coward that I was. The start of the trekwas behindsome shacks at the side of a shallow ravine. There were some Tibetan ladies selling trinketsto tourists and some locals drinking tea as if they had nothing to do in the world. But oncethe trekking started, it was a dream come true. The air was pure because there were nomotor vehicles of any kind there except helicopters which flew overhead. Later we had tocross suspension bridges like the ones in Indiana Jones movies except that these had metalwires.The trek was uphill all the time with little respite. Now and then we came to broad flatledges but after that, it was climbing up and up again. I took my time and admired the snowcapped mountains, the rustic villages I passed through (two or three houses actually) and allthe time I was conscious of the fresh air I was breathing in. It was invigorating, mostlybecause this has always been my dream: to trek in the foothills of the Himalayas.I had chosen the right season (October) because the rains had stopped and therhododendrons which grew in bushes and trees were in full bloom. Walking througha forestof these flowers was more like the Shangri-La I dreamed of. Moss hung down from thebranches of these century-old trees.My pack which contained my camera, raincoat and water bottle wasbeginning to feelheavy. And as I sat down to appreciate the vista which spread before me, I heardthe porterwhistling as he carried my heavy bag past me. He was wearing slippers while I was intrekking boots I bought at great cost back in Kuala Lumpur.Nights were spent in little huts along the trek. It was cold and bathing was a problemexcept in rest lodges which had hot water. They use solar power andsince the sun washardly out when I was there, hot water was in short supply. Food was interesting. It wasmainly western food apple pie and pizzas were common. At Chomron, I had to wakeup at4 a.m. and walk up Poon Hill in the dark. I arrived at the summit just as the sun was rising.If there had been music, it would have been my idea of heaven clean clear air, cold breezeand the changing colours of the mountain ranges which surrounded the summit.5101520253035SULIT111119/2 2013 Hakcipta BPSBPSK1119/2SULIT789The panoramic view was astounding as the sun rose and showed more clearly each peakwith each passing minute. There were almost a hundred trekkers there but conversation wasquiet. Somehow sound didnt carry well in the chilly rarefied air. But all too soon, the sunbecame too hot and I had to descend. I rested in Chomron for another night and orderedchicken curry for dinner. It cost me RM20 for the chicken because their staple meal wasdalbat (lots of rice with lentil curry, potatoes and some vegetables).It must very goodbecause the porters who survived on this were extremely strong, with fabulous stamina.When I made my final walk to the base camp at Annapurna, I met some trekkers who hadto stay the night at a lodge at the entrance. Some were suffering from mountain sickness headache with nausea due to the height of the place. As I walked, snow began to fall. Icrossed small glaciers where a slip meant sliding down to the valleybelow. Since no oneseemed to bother about walking on the narrow ledges, I also pluckedup my courage andpicked my way across. Soon, I was trudging on snow and ice. Breathing became laboured. Itwasnt much fun now but since the experience was novel, I was motivated.The base camp loomed through the falling snow about one kilometre in frontbut now theclimb was steep. It took more than an hour to reach it. What a feeling of success I had whenI took the final step into the lodge of the base camp. That was until I met a thinly cladSherpa who said he was 70 years old and had been climbing up hereevery year. He wassipping a cup of cocoa a trekker bought him and obviously he didnt think gettingthere wasa big deal. And here I was, raising my arms in jubilation as I made the final step.(Adapted from Just English, 2005)4045505526 From paragraph 1,(a) Name the town that was dirty...[1 mark](b) What was the reason for the writer to wrap the towel round his face?..[1 mark]27 From paragraph 2, how did the writer go to Pokara?..[1 mark]28 (a) Which word in paragraph 5 means panorama?......[1 mark](b) From paragraph 6, why was bathing a problem to the writer?.
