Read the passage below and attempt all the questions that follow.
In the traditional way of life, families obtained their daily food directly from the land they
cultivated. The land was looked upon as the main source of family wealth. The villages were
small as few houses were built. This meant that relatives lived in close proximity to one
another. This set-up enhanced social interaction among family members.
Economically, it was advantageous to have many children in a family as plenty of workers were
needed to cultivate the land. Jobs were available for everyone in the family. These ranged from
tilling the land and looking after animals to doing household chores. Accordingly, the
traditional family was the main unit of production and the home tended to be the center of
social, educational, training, recreational, and religious activities. Thus, there was increased
dependence between and among family members.
In contrast, modern families have acquired increased independence from other families. They
live in rural modern houses in individually-owned ‘Shambas’ isolated from other houses.
Alternatively, they live in urban areas surrounded by skyscrapers and the ring and ding of cars
and machines. Often, in both cases, relatives may be living too far, making frequent visits
difficult. The result is that family members are losing touch with one another.
Economically, the modern family is no longer the main unit of production. Husbands and
wives, sons and daughters are looking for work outside the home situation, Often, small
children who are not economically productive are left at home without adequate family care.
The recreation of the family has been entrusted to the entertainment industry made up of
television, radio, magazines, and cinemas theatres. Little wonder then that family members
keep drifting apart.
All these changes have altered the roles the family ought to play. First, there is less emphasis
on parents being primary trainers of youngsters. This role is entrusted to childminders who
are usually not family members. Thereafter, it falls on schools, churches, and other
organizations. In this scenario, the roles of the parents as models to their children, comforters
of and listeners to the children’s emotional needs are reduced.
Secondly, modern families tend to stay apart for a long time. Instead of using the traditional
family way of involving members to solve disputes, they turn to trained professionals like
lawyers for help and guidance. Modern families have, therefore, lost their obligations in solving
problems in the family.
In essence, children today do not get the full benefit of their rights as they did in traditional
families. For example, they are not always allowed to receive and return affection. Also, their
right to receive moral, sexual, and emotional guidance from their families has eroded seriously.
In light of all these issues, children growing up today are less likely to enjoy meaningful family
relations than their traditional counterparts.

and Waiyaki, Longman Kenya pp6-8)

in a race. I will finish the race and have enough time to take a meal and a nap before you

And the great competition was set. Then the day came.
“On your marks, set, go!” the elephant started the race.
No sooner had the race started than the chameleon jumped on the hare’s tail. The hare ran
like he had never run before. At the finishing line, he started celebrating but when he
attempted to sit down and wait for the chameleon, the chameleon shouted, “Wooi!” Please
do not sit on me! I arrived long enough to have a meal and a nap. You can never defeat me
in a race!”
