The most unforgettable experience is always hard for me to forget, and stays fresh in my memory
all the time.
It was last Monday I turned 20. When I work early in the morning and the first thing I expected
was wishes from my family. I came out from my room with a smile face and expectation of greetings from
my family, but everything happened unexpected. No one remember my birthday. So from smile face turned to
dull face. I ate my breakfast, picked up my bag and went straight to college with another expectation of
greetings from my friends. But as I reached college, not a single friend of mine wished me. My mood became
so off. Then I came home and got a note that everyone had gone to the uncle’s home and I was alone at home.
Then the final expected thing was I checked my facebook account, and found out that I got no notification. I
was really disappointed.
Then after a while I got a message that I had to come to uncle’s house .It was emergency. I was so
worried and went there fast. When I reached the house, I saw the most unexpected thing of that day. I heard a
loud voice of birthday greetings from all my friends and family. I was very surprised and tear started coming
from my eyes. Everyone there was just for me and wished me. Then I knew that these all things were planned.
No greetings were from family and friends, and neither was notification on my facebook account. I was really
happy that day. Then I blew the candle with this wish thank God for the best family and friends who made
my birthday the best birthday ever.

This text is for Questions 38 to 43

Zebras are a kind of horse. They walk, trot, canter, and gallop just as horses do. Zebras live only in Africa.
There are three species (kinds) of zebras: Grévy’s zebra, the mountain zebra, and the plains zebra (also known as
Burchell’s zebra). Each kind of zebra has its own pattern of stripes. And you can tell individual zebras apart. No two
zebras have exactly the same stripes.
Some scientists think zebra stripes act as protection. Zebras like to hang out together in groups. When zebras
are feeding together, the stripes can confuse an attacking animal. The stripes make it hard for a lion or hyena to pick out
one zebra in the crowd. The stripes also break up the zebra’s outline and make zebras hard to see at a distance.
Other scientists think zebras can tell each other apart by their stripes. The stripes might help zebras find family members
and friends. Each species of zebra has a different pattern of stripes. The Grévy’s zebra has narrow stripes set closely
together. The mountain zebra has wider stripes. The plains zebra has the widest stripes of all. The plains zebra also has
stripes that wrap around from its back to its belly. The other two kinds of zebras have white bellies. The plains zebra
sometimes has faint gray stripes between the black stripes on its sides.
Zebras are usually smaller than horses. The mountain zebra is the smallest zebra. These zebras are about 4 feet
(about 1.2 meters) high at the shoulders. Plains zebras are slightly larger. Grévy’s zebra is the largest zebra. It stands
about 5 feet (about 1.5 meters) high at the shoulder. Zebras have manes that stick straight up from their necks. A zebra’s
tail is shorter than a horse’s tail. Zebras can hear very well. They turn their ears and big eyes toward the source of any
sound. They are always on the lookout for danger. How zebras hold their ears helps to show what mood they are in. A
zebra that flicks its ears back and forth is upset. Zebras do not have a very good sense of smell. However, they can smell
smoke. Smoke might mean the grassland where they live is on fire.
Like other members of the horse family, zebras are grazing animals. They feed on coarse grass. Zebras have
chisel-shaped teeth at the front of the mouth to bite off the grass and large molars (back teeth) for grinding up food.
Zebras spend over half their time eating. In a single day, a herd of zebras may wander more than 12 miles (20
kilometers) in search of food. While some zebras have their heads down munching on grass, others are on the lookout for
danger. Some zebras also stand lookout while other zebras lie down and sleep.
Zebras form small family units. A zebra female, or mare, is pregnant for about 12 months. She usually gives
birth to one foal at a time. The newborn foal feeds on its mother’s milk for up to a year. The family units of the plains
and mountain zebra are very stable. An adult male, or stallion, heads the family. A family can have up to six adult
females or mares. The mares often remain in the group for life. The stallion helps protect all the mares and foals in the
family unit. Sometimes a younger male may drive out the stallion. When the animals are on the move, the oldest mare is
first in line, followed by her foals. The other mares and foals line up behind by age. The stallion brings up the rear.
