1 دولة فلسطين و ازرة التربية والتعليم العالي مديرية شمال غزة اسم الطالب:... اسم المدرسة :... Final Exam/ 12th grade Literary Stream/ Paper 1 AL-INHAZ/ Total Marks (90) Reading Comprehension: (30 points) Question Number One: ( 20 points) Read the text carefully. Then complete the tasks below : Almost everything in New York was different. We were used to living in an area where everyone knew everyone else s business, but here no one seemed to take any notice even of their neighbours. Instead of having a common culture, the people around us dressed in different styles, ate different kinds of food, even spoke different languages. It was a complete puzzle to me how they could be so various yet still call themselves Americans. I was born in 1942, so I must have been about six or seven when the 1948 catastrophe (Nakba) happened. As a result, thousands of Palestinian families, including mine, were forced to leave Palestine. We spent a short time in Jordan before we children were taken to America by our aunt and uncle. Being so young, I saw our new life mostly as an adventure, even though I missed my friends and our old home. My parents had important work to do, but they had promised to join us as soon as possible. My older brother went through a period of anger, saying he hated everything about America. My uncle had his job at the newspaper and was quite fluent in English, so he managed fairly well. My aunt, though, never got used to life in America. I now realise that this was mostly a choice she made herself. She refused to learn any English, so she found herself stuck in the house most of the time, only going out to buy food like we had at home, for which she would walk miles rather than use the stores in the neighbourhood. She also refused to make any changes to the tiny apartment we rented, apart from spending hours keeping it clean. This meant that it was very hot in the summer and freezing in winter. I m sure we could have afforded a fridge, but she wouldn t have one, preferring to keep things cool in the traditional way. At the time, I remember feeling annoyed with her stubborn attitude, but now, looking back, I know I should have realised what it was: a sign of her deep feeling of loss. In one way, I now understand, she was clinging to the way of life that had been taken from her. Mainly, though, her refusal to become accustomed to living in America was an expression of her conviction that our situation was only temporary. Don t get used to all this, she often told us, because it won t last. We ll be going home soon. A) Answer the following questions: 1) How is life in America different from life in Palestine? (6 points) a. In Palestine, everyone knew everyone else s business. But in America, no one seemed to take any notice even of their neighbours. b. In Palestine, there is a common culture. But in New York, people dressed in different styles, ate different kinds of food, even spoke different languages. 2) What helps the writer's uncle adapt to the new situation? a. He had his job at the newspaper b. He was quite fluent in English. 3) What does the aunt's stubborn attitude reflect? a. a sign of her deep feeling of loss. b. she was clinging to the way of life that had been taken from her. B) Choose the correct answer: 1) The text is (3 points)

Question Number Two : ( 10 points) Read the following passage then answer the questions below: (10 points) We tend to make friends with people we cross paths with regularly: people we go to school with, work with, or live close to. The more we see someone, the more likely the chance of a friendship developing. Another big factor in friendship is common interests. We tend to be drawn to people we share things with: a hobby, the same cultural background, a shared career. Making a new friend is just the beginning of the journey. It takes time to form and even more time to deepen, so you need to nurture that new connection. The most important thing in a friendship is how the relationship makes you feel not how it looks on paper, how many things you have in common, or what others think. A friend is someone you trust and share a deep level of understanding and communication. A good friend will show a genuine interest in what's going on in your life, what you have to say, and how you think and feel about things. Friends have a huge impact on your happiness. Good friends relieve stress, provide comfort and joy, prevent loneliness and isolation, and even strengthen your health. But close friendships don t just happen. Many of us struggle to meet new people and develop quality connections. Whatever your age or circumstances, though, it's never too late to make new friends, reconnect with old ones, and improve your social life. We think that if we can just find that right person, we ll be happy and fulfilled. But research shows that friends are even more important to psychological well-being as friends bring more happiness into our lives.what s more, friendships have a powerful impact on our physical health. Lack of social connection can be as damaging as smoking and drinking too much.
