Second Term English Examination Name ………………………….
I) Part one : Reading comprehension.
Read the reading passage carefully then do the following activities.
Our school project of English was a survey. My group wanted to know if today’s
teenagers are more or less interested in reading books. We decided to carry out the
survey in our own secondary school – Abou El Kacem Zahraoui.
The questionnaire included 05 precise questions. We asked 100 pupils as a sample.
They were aged between 16 and 18 from the three levels; first, second and third year.
Only 31 pupils said that they enjoyed reading. Most of them did so at the school library.
“I like to read books of different subjects to broaden my knowledge”, said Ali, one of
them. 14 pupils admitted that they could not find time to read because they had other
hobbies.52 pupils said that they read only when they search for specific notes for school.
Among all the interviewees, only 03 pupils gave further details about the subject.
Khaddouja said, “The type of books I want is not available”. “That is absolutely true”,
said her friend Salem. “And if there is a chance to find one, it would be very expensive.”,
He added. Dalia, a third year pupil said, “For me, the best source of books is the internet.
E-books are more available and less expensive than books we find in libraries”.
Unfortunately, we were very astonished by the negative fact that today’s pupil don’t
read so often. Most pupils read a few of their school documents and while getting ready
for their school tests and exams.
