unit six and seven exam- شادي الرمحي

1. Read the following text carefully, then answer the questions that follow.

   As a teenager, the sight of Mount Kilimanjaro rising majestically above the Serengeti made Vern Jones desperately want to climb it. Finally in 2014, at the age of 62, Vern finally realised his dream while accompanied by his daughters and their husbands. However, he was all too aware that he couldn’t have succeeded without the help of the guides. These young men, who are often illequipped themselves and poorly paid, work daily in dangerous conditions to help climbers achieve their goals. Vern’s response was to found Kili Summit Club which raises money to help the guides from the proceeds of mountain gear sales. They receive footwear and equipment to help them with their work, as well as commission from sales, allowing climbers to support them long after their adventure is over.

   In the Autumn of 2012, Lisa Ludwinski started her business from her parents’ kitchen when she made and sold 40 pies. The reaction to them was so positive that she kept going. What followed was an industrious few years. Lisa took a business class, took on an intern and raised money for her own bakery in Detroit, Michigan. She even did a 24-hour fund-raising activity, bringing in $26,593, which allowed her to open Sister Pie in April, 2015. Integral to Lisa’s business philosophy is making Sister Pie a part of the community. Due to this, she operates a ‘Pie it Forward’ system where customers can purchase a coupon. This is then kept on the wall and can be used by strangers, who may not have enough money, to enjoy a slice of the delicious pies.

   In 2015, Tracy Warshal was in the queue at a busy shop during the holiday season when the man in front of her realised he’d forgotten his wallet. Tracy paid for the stranger’s milk and other items, and after thanking her and asking her name, he was on his way. She thought no more of it until a month later when she was contacted by colleagues at the cancer charity where she worked. They told her that the man, who wished to remain anonymous, wanted to donate $10,000 to the foundation in her name. As she was wearing a T-shirt with the charity’s name on it at the shop, he was able to track her down. She told reporters, ‘I’m just so excited that one small gesture made a huge difference and impact on a lot of people. I hope it makes some people think twice about doing something small to somebody.’
