Bodyguard Kills Robber
Klang: An attempt by five men to rob a factory manager yesterday ended with one of them being
shot dead by a bodyguard. The factory manager had just withdrawn RM50,000 from a bank and
was driven off by his bodyguard. The bodyguard had noticed that they were being tailed by two
cars. At a corner, the two cars obstructed the managers car and a robber tried to smash the
passenger window with a rock. The bodyguard got out of the car and fired a shot at the robbers
but missed. His second shot however, hit one of the robbers in the head and his accomplices
sped-away empty-handed.

9 Based on the above letter, which of these statements is true?
A Movies on Astro are more enjoyable to watch.
B People who frequent the cinemas are normally students.
C Muthusamy complains about the quality of films in cinemas.
D A hike in cinema ticket prices will discourage people to go to cinemas.
10 Dont cut off your nose to spite your face means
A Dont make things worse for yourself.
B Dont disfigure your face.
C Dont upset yourself.
D Dont be rude.
Dear Editor,
REBEL ABOUT THE COST
If movie ticket prices are going to double up, many may choose to stay home and watch Astroprogrammes instead. I am a student and I watch movies at cinemas a lot with my friends andfamily. To pay for twice the price will definitely deter a lot of people to frequent cinemas. Whatmore a student like me! This is not a good prospect for the local film industry especially. Peoplewould rather wait for the local movies to be shown on TV rather than watch them on cinemaswith the increase in the ticket prices. Similarly, I can surely stay at home and watch a lot ofmovies on Astro and still enjoy myself if I cant afford pricey cinema ticket prices.
Muthusamy Chelliah
Did Mr Tan give you a good report?
I dont know. Anyway, I dont
care and I dont mind telling him
I wouldnt if I were you.
Dont cut off your nose to
spite your face. You need
that scholarship!

Questions 33-40are based on the following passage.
Jerry was the kind of person who was always in a good mood and had something positive to
say. When someone would ask him how he was doing, he would reply, If I were any better, I
would be twins!
He was a unique manager because he had several waiters who had followed him around
from one restaurant to another. They followed Jerry because of his attitude. He was a
natural motivator. If an employee was having a bad day, Jerry was there telling the
employee how to look on the positive side of the situation.
Seeing this style really made me curious. So one day, I went up to Jerry and asked him, I
dont get it! You cant be a positive person all the time. How do you do it? Jerry replied,
Each morning I wake up and say to myself, Jerry, you have two choices today. You can
choose to be in a good mood or a bad mood. I choose to be in a good mood. Each time
something bad happens, I can choose to be a victim or to learn from it. I choose to learn
from it. Every time someone comes to me complaining, I can choose to accept their
complaints or to point out the positive side of life. I choose the positive side of life.
Its not that easy! I protested. Yes, it is. Jerry said. Life is all about choices. Every
situation is a choice. You choose how you react to situations and you choose how people
will affect your mood. The bottom line is, its your choice how you live your life. I reflected on
what Jerry said.
Soon, I left the restaurant industry to start my own business. We lost touch but I often
thought about him when I made a choice about life. Several years later, I heard that Jerry did
something you are never supposed to do in a restaurant business. He left the back door
open one morning and was held up at gunpoint by three armed robbers. While trying to openthe safe, his hand shaking from nervousness, sl ipped offthe combinations. The robbers
panicked and shot him.
Luckily Jerry was found quickly and rushed to the local trauma centre. After 18 hours of
surgery and weeks of intensive care, Jerry was released from the hospital with bullet
fragments still in his body. I saw Jerry about six months after the robbery. He wanted to
show his scars but I declined. However I did ask him what had gone through his mind as the
robbery took place. Jerry replied.While lying wounded on the floor, I remembered I had two
choices, to live or to die. I chose to live.
