IEB Copyright © 2009 PLEASE TURN OVER NATIONAL SENIOR CERTIFICATE: ENGLISH FIRST ADDITIONAL LANGUAGE: PAPER I Page 2 of 12 QUESTION 1 MAKING MEANING OF TEXTS Passage 1 Read the passage below and answer the questions that follow. THE BUCK STARTS HERE Qualifying in your chosen field is your primary focus, and any job you take must support, not sabotage, that goal. 1 School is history and you're about to begin your tertiary education. It's an exciting, challenging phase of your life, but there's a snag: Being a full-time fee-paying student costs a fortune, and unless your last name is Rockefeller or a kind relative has conveniently left you a trust fund, you'll need a job to subsidise what your over- taxed parents are willing and able to fork out. 2 Your circumstances will dictate what you need to earn. You may have heavy commitments: supporting yourself, financing a car, or paying off a student loan. Or perhaps you just need some spending money. Taking financial responsibility is an inevitable part of adulthood, but it can be tricky to balance academic demands with the requirements of a job, especially when you are new to the game.
