The office assistant was dismissed for pilfering
Awọn alaye Idahun
The most appropriate option nearest in meaning to the word "pilfering" is "stealing". "Pilfering" refers to the act of stealing small items or small amounts of money or goods, especially in a sneaky or casual way. 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 (c) "stealing" is the best match for the word "pilfering" because it directly refers to the act of taking something that does not belong to you without permission, which is what the office assistant did. 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. Option (d) "mismanagement" refers to poor management or administration of something, which is not related to the context of the sentence.

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.
A suitable title for the passage is
Awọn alaye Idahun
A suitable title for the passage could be "Importance of English in Nigerian Education". The passage talks about the significance of the English language in Nigeria, how it was used as a measure of educational attainment in the past, and the current situation where many teachers are not competent in its usage. The author highlights the need for everyone to agree on the correct usage of the language for effective communication.

It is embarrassing to accept our mistakes and tender an apology.
Awọn alaye Idahun
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".

In question number 14 above choose the best option from letters A- E that best complete the gap
Awọn alaye Idahun
Option C, "pollen," is the best option that completes the gap in question 14 above. Worker bees collect both nectar and pollen from flowers. Nectar is used to make honey, while pollen is a source of protein for the bees and is used to feed the young bees. Therefore, the worker bees deposit the nectar on the hive and then convert it into honey, while the pollen is used to feed the young bees.

Awọn alaye Idahun
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.

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.
It can be inferred from the passage that
Awọn alaye Idahun
According to the passage, the concluding part informs us that fatigue can take various forms, distinctively among students, labourers or business executives. These different activities come with different forms of fatigue.
