Read
the passage about a river journey. Mark sentences
1 to 5 T (True) or F (False) or N (No Information).
As
the boat slowly made its way down the river
and emerged from the trees into the sunlight
of the grasslands, I got my first view of
Boze Village. For the last mile of narrow,
winding river, naked village children had
been following us, running out of the seemingly
impenetrable jungle to shout their welcome,
only to disappear again. A hundred yards
further on, we would see the same children
balanced precariously on an over-hanging
branch, laughing and waving. This was to
be my Papua New Guinea home for the next
two years, and as we tied up to the roots
of a giant mango tree, the entire population
was standing on the bank, partly to welcome
me and partly to have a good look at its
very own volunteer. As I carefully stepped
over the tree's exposed roots, hands appeared
from everywhere to help me on to the bank.
The villagers and I had waited a long time
for this day, and they would never have
forgiven themselves had I slipped into the
muddy brown water below. Inu Dai, the headman,
was screaming instructions to everyone.
One look at me must have convinced him that
whatever talents I possessed, agility was
not one of them. I am not quite sure just
what he expected, but the arrival of a short,
portly, slightly balding, middle-aged volunteer
must have given him some pause for thought.
