    First Term English Exam


    Read the the text carefully then do the following activities.

    Conflicts are a normal part of life. How we deal with them can make a big difference.
    Generally, when people resolve conflicts, one person ends up a winner, and one loses out. This may
    solve the problem for the moment, but resentment and bad feelings can cause more problems later.
    Another way to look at conflicts is to try to find a Win-Win solution, in which both sides can benefit.
    Today, conflit resolution is being practised in schools; teachers receive training to become
    « peace makers » when conflicts arise in the classroom. Organizations are being called on to help
    families, communities, and even nations to work their problems.
    Take for example, the United Nations whom mission is to help create a more peaceful, just
    and sustainable world. UN peacekeepers help countries. They help conflicting sides to carryout peace
    agreements they have agreed upon.
    Peace is more than the absence of war. It is a state of being in balance of harmony. Peace is
    about community, about encouraging and helping each other to live better. Most of all, peace is
    about respect,respect for ourselves, for each other, and for the planet we share.
