2006 POST UTME TEST

ENGLISH LANGUAGE

(Question 1-15 of 15)

Read the following passage and answer the questions that follow it:

Whenever I told people that I was going to the psychiatric Hospital,
Yaba in Lagos, many of them look at my face with some kind of
suspicion or sympathy. At least that was the message that I read from
their faces.
I understood suspicion to mean that they might be troubled or worried
if I had some psychiatric problem myself concerning the concept of
sympathy, they might have thought that I had a patient that I went
there to see or visit. How on earth they thought that way baffled me!
In reality, the hospital was built for the care of people with some
kind of psychiatric problem or another. Did it mean, then that all
persons that one found in the hospital in any given time had
psychiatric problem? Or, could someone not go to the place for things
other than seeking psychiatric assistance?
What might be responsible for this kind of attitude was the lack of
education or precisely, good
Education. After all, education could help people to differentiate
their right from the left hand. What such people might have done was
to request to know what one was going there to do. Such a request
would have solved the suspicion and sympathy problems.
