Question

Read the passage carefully and answer the following questions.

A telephone conversation between two friends, Sanjay and Pankaj, took place on a Thursday afternoon. Sanjay: Hello Pankaj. How are you? You have been absent from school for the last 2 days. Pankaj: Hi Şanjay! I had food poisoning. Anyway, I’m better now and will be going back to school tomorrow. Sanjay: Did you eat something which was contaminated? Pankaj: Well, I took fried oyster and some noodles at the food centre on Tuesday night. Most likely, it was the former.

It could not have been the chicken rice or fishballs I took at our school canteen during recess. Sanjay: Oh, I see. Pankaj: Can you please tell me if there’s any homework to be done? Sanjay: Yes, Mrs. Boon is going to conduct a Science test for our class tomorrow. Pankaj: Thanks for letting me know. Did she say which chapters will be tested? Sanjay: Yes, she did. The test is going to cover the chapters on “Magnets”, “Classification of Materials” and “Life Cycles of Plants”. Pankaj: That’s a relief. I am only unfamiliar with the chapter on “Magnets”. A quick revision is all I’ll need.

Thanks and see you tomorrow. Sanjay: You’re welcome. Bye and take care.
