Answer:
It is that time of year again when South Africans celebrate National Senior Certificate results, ushering a generation of youth out of the school system and into the world. Of the 788,717 who successfully completed these exams, 186,058 achieved passes that potentially open the doors of university study.
As we read about the results, we take delight in the success stories, like the student from a poorer background scoring multiple distinctions despite having no properly qualified maths or science teacher. Or the rural student who earned a university entrance despite walking long distances to school each day. These achievements should be celebrated, as they are truly exceptional.
But the problem with these stories, uplifting as they may be, is that they often carry a subtext.
The presumption that hard work alone leads to success – and that laziness leads to failure – follows the student into the university. Here, despite a wealth of careful research that proclaims otherwise, most people believe that success emerges from the intelligence and work ethic of the individual.
In a recent journal article, we have argued that academics often ignore the research on student failure that shows it emerges from a number of factors. Many of these factors are beyond the attributes inherent in the student. Instead, most hold on to the simplistic common sense assumption that success comes to those who deserve it. Academics who hold this view are prone to assume that students are successful because of what an individual student does or does not do.
But the reality is a far more complex interplay of individual attributes with social structures which unfairly affect some more than others.

Sir,
IMPORTANT OBSERVATIONS ABOUT THE SCHOOL
It is with a great sense of urgency that I write this letter to you sir. I must sincerely commend your efforts towards sanitizing our school. The school have indeed taken a new shape since the inception of your administration.
However, there are a few areas I want to draw your attention to. I have observed with dismay that many students do not come to school early. Lateness have risen to an all time high in the past few months. This is not good for the image of our school. I implore you to do all that you can to ensure punctuality among students.
Secondly, many students no longer appear in the complete school uniform. I have noticed that quite a number of students no longer wear the school tie. This is incomplete dressing and a mark of indiscipline which should be vehemently discouraged.
On the part of the teachers, I must commend their punctuality and regularity to classes. This is quite unlike what was obtainable before your arrival. Teachers now come to class when it is their lesson period and the level of teacher absenteeism has greatly reduced. This should be encouraged.
I hope my observations will be considered for appropriate action.
Yours Faithfully,
Chinonso Njoku
Scanning is a reading technique and it means locating particular facts while reading the text. In comparison with skimming which is a rapid look-through, scanning is the process of using keywords and cues. The last option could be confused in a way that you are reading faster. Indeed, the sentence contains a fact about football and it could be a loophole not to pay attention. Therefore, the correct answer is the last option - D.
