A. CLOZE TEST. (10mks)

As we stand, the HIV/AIDS pandemic is on the rampage, ravaging the young and old alike. It is time for people to (1) discern for themselves what is good and what is not. And the earlier they do this the (2) better. The youth, for instance, can rise up (3) to champion the message of hope and assure everybody that it is possible for a remnant to remain by just (4) abstaining from premarital sex. And how will they refrain if everywhere they look images of sex stare at them, beckoning alluringly? The thing to remember is that it is their (5) responsibility to censor the stuff that gets into their minds because this will definitely (6) shape the kind of decisions and lifestyles they adopt. Before reading a pornographic book or magazine, they (7) should pause and ask themselves, "Do I hope to (8) live better after reading this?" The same consideration should be made before (9) watching certain movies and listening to offensive music. Guarding one's mind (10) against trash requires laying down very clear principles. Discipline is imperative.
