SECTION A ( 25 MARKS )
COMPREHENSION AND SUMMARY.
1. Read the following passage below then answer the questions that follows.
It is very easy to acquire bad habits such as eating too many sweets, or drinking too much fluid or any kind of smoking. The more we do the thing the more we tend to like doing it. If we do not continue to do it , we will feel unhappy. This is called the force of habit and the force of habit should be taught again.
One of the most widely spread habits is the use of tobacco. Tobacco is now smoked or chewed by men often by women and even by children. Almost all over the world. It was brought into Africa by Whiteman from America. I doubt whether there is any good in the habit and it is difficult to get rid of the habit once it has been formed.
Alcohol is taken almost cool and cold climates and to a very less extent in hot climates. Alcohol is not necessary to anybody in anyway . Tanzania is not required by the people at all and should be avoided by them altogether. The regular use of alcohol , even in small quantities , causes mischief’s in many ways to various organs of the body. It affects the liver, it weakness the mental powers, and lessens the general energy of the body.

ii) What do we mean by ‘the force of habit’?
