Questions 16 – 20

Read the passage below and answer the questions.

My first visit to Langkawi Island last school holidays was unforgettable. It was my very
first experience boarding a ferry. I went there with my parents and my younger brother, Azman.
All the way to Langkawi, he refused to sit, instead he stood up to look at the sea and all the
things around him. The journey took about an hour, I could see the glimpse of the island. There
is a big eagle standing proudly ready to take off.

My father took us to a hotel in Kuah. From the window, I could see the beautiful scenery
of the sea. That evening we went to The Underwater World. We saw many types of fish in
different sizes. I have never seen such colourful fishes in my life. Before going back to the
hotel, we went for refreshment to enjoy ourselves with some coconut drinks.

The next day was the most thrilling moment for my brother and me. We went up to the
cable car. Actually I felt scared myself but my Year 1 brother was very excited. When we were
in the cable car, everything looked so small. The view of the islands and sea were magnificent.

That evening, we went shopping. We managed to buy a few things and of course my
parents bought a lot of chocolates to take home as souvenirs for our neighbours. The next
morning, we packed our belongings to get ready for home.

16. How long did the writer spend his holidays in Langkawi?

A. Two days and one night.

B. Two days and two nights.

C. Three days and two nights.

D. Three days and three nights.

17. Why did Azman refuse to sit in the ferry?

A. He was excited.

B. He wanted to see the view.

C. There was no seat for him to sit.

D. He wanted to see the people around him.
