Read the passages below and answer the questions that follow:
Everyone is tired or fatigued at some time. The major cycle in your life is work, fatigue and rest in that order. Fatigue is characteristic of your body. It does not occur in a man-made machine which operates as long as its parts are intact and it has fuel. But your body, a living machine, has a definite limitation - its work continues, it gradually loses its responsiveness, becomes less irritable, turns out less work and finally may not respond at all. The feeling of fatigue usually expresses itself in three ways: first, there is a feeling of tiredness and a marked desire for rest. Second, efficiency is greatly reduced. Third, there may be definite physiological changes in your body, low blood pressure, loss of muscle tone, tremors, and poor muscular coordination, and in other ways. Fatigue, however, may express itself in many ways for there are many different forms of it. The fatigue of a student. for example, who has worked all evening on a difficult lesson, is different from that of a labourer who has worked all day at a back-breaking task, or that of a business executive who worries with the stress and strain of organisation.
According to the passage, the worst stage of fatigue is

In the given sentence, the office assistant was dismissed for pilfering, which means that they were fired from their job because they were caught stealing or taking things that didn't belong to them from the office.

Option (a) "fighting" refers to physical altercations between people, which is not related to the context of the sentence. Option (b) "incompetence" refers to the lack of ability to perform a job or task correctly, which is not related to the context of the sentence.

How did Omar check his admission status?
Vraag 36 Verslag
It is normal in Nigeria to use proficiency in the use of English language as a barometer for evaluating the height of any person's educational attainment. Today, many teachers resort quite often to the use of vernacular in the teaching of their subjects. One is often dismayed at the incompetence of many teachers, even graduates in the use of English language. Throughout the colonial period, up to 1960, Nigerian formal education was patterned after the English system. The "accent" was on English and an educated Nigerian was one who was only African in colour but English in thought and culture. The ability to speak English fluently and if possible with an Oxford accent was the hallmark of excellence even if the speaker was empty of thought and ideas. In those days it was a serious offence for a secondary school boy or girl to "laugh in the vernacular". But we now swung to the other extreme. Nigeria would say they are not English people, some would say they did not specialise in English in the university. But the country has adopted the English language as its official, the language of instruction at schools, parliamentary proceedings, conduct of official business and indeed the lingua franca. If the language is to continue to be used, then it is imperative that we all agree on the pattern of correctness in the language so that communication can be effective.

It is embarrassing to accept our mistakes and tender an apology.
Antwoorddetails
The option nearly opposite in meaning to the underlined word "embarrassing" is "honourable". Explanation: When something is embarrassing, it means it causes a feeling of shame or awkwardness. On the other hand, when something is honourable, it means it is worthy of respect and admiration. So, while accepting our mistakes and apologizing may be considered embarrassing because it involves admitting fault, it is also an honourable thing to do because it shows humility, accountability, and a willingness to make amends. Therefore, "honourable" is the option that is nearly opposite in meaning to "embarrassing".

The following lessons can be derived from the story of ''the quiet one'' except?
Antwoorddetails
The lesson that cannot be derived from the story of "the quiet one" is that "Justice is not fair." The story of "the quiet one" is about a person who is perceived as quiet and unremarkable, but who turns out to have hidden talents and abilities. The story does not focus on issues of justice, and there is no evidence to suggest that justice is not fair in this context. The other lessons that can be derived from the story are: - Never judge a book by its cover: This lesson emphasizes that it is wrong to make assumptions about people based on their appearance or initial impressions. It is important to take the time to get to know someone before making a judgment. - Learn to trust sparingly: This lesson suggests that it is wise to be cautious about who we trust. We should not blindly trust everyone we meet, but instead, we should be discerning and careful about who we share personal information with or rely on for support. - Not all that glitters is gold: This lesson means that things may not be as they appear, and that we should be careful not to be deceived by appearances. Just because something or someone looks impressive or promising, it does not necessarily mean that they are actually valuable or trustworthy.
