READING COMPREHENSION
Read the following text and do the following tasks .
The Wodaabe Tribe

In the scorching heat of the Sahara Desert a celebration is getting started. But this isn't just
a party, it's a competition-one that the entrants take very seriously indeed.

A. The preparations for the beauty contest are underway. The contestants are putting on
colourful outfits, fixing their make-up and doing their hair. Excitement is in the air and
everyone is busy, but this is a beauty contest with a difference. The contestants aren't women,
they're men.
B. I'm in Niger, in West Africa, staying with the Wodaabe tribe, a group of about 45,000
nomadic cattle herders who travel through the Sahara Desert trading cows for supplies. They
protect themselves from the harsh African sun by wearing a check, 13 meters of cotton
wrapped around their heads like a turban, and a large straw hat. But perhaps what people know
them best for is the high importance they place on physical beauty. The Wodaabe are not
ashamed of being thought to be vain and they consider themselves the most beautiful people in
the world.
C. Every year the Wodaabe hold a beauty contest, called 'Gerewol, to celebrate the rainy season.
It's an important time for people who live in the desert and many Wodaabe gather together.
Groups of young men dance for hours to impress a selection of female judges. Characteristics
that the Wodaabe look for are height, a long nose and bright white teeth and eyes. I'm here to
witness this year's dance and like everyone else, I can't wait for it to start. There's nothing like
it anywhere else.
D. Getting ready for the contest can take days. The men have to make eye-catching outfits from
ostrich feathers, beads and brightly-coloured materials. They also paint their faces to better
show off their looks. For example, a long line painted from the forehead to the chin makes the
nose seem longer and more attractive.
E. Soon the dance begins. The men stand in a circle, shoulder to shoulder, and move round as
they dance. The women stand behind them and when their favorite competitor comes past they
tap him on the shoulder. Whirling in circles for hours on end under the desert sun can be
exhausting, but the Wodaabe men are strong and as the contest goes on, the atmosphere
becomes more highly charged.
F. Even though I'm not taking part, I find myself dancing along to the music as well. It's great
fun, but before long I'm tired. By the end of the dance there are three winners. The losers have
to wait until next year's Gerewol to try again. The physical endurance needed to dance and

sing all day is very impressive to see. It may be a beauty contest, but it certainly isn't typical.
This exciting festival highlights not only the men's looks, but also their strength, fun-loving
nature and creativity. I hope that the Wodaabe continue this fantastic celebration for some time
to come.

Task 1. Read the text. For each question, choose the correct answer A, B, C or D.
1. What does the writer suggest about the Wodaabe people in the second paragraph?
A. They have a high opinion of themselves.
B The men want to impress each other.
C They get everything they need from their animals.
D They care most about the clothing they wear.
2. The writer is excited to see the festival because
A he has been waiting for it to start for a long time.
B he has traveled a long way to see it.
C he thinks everyone else seems too serious.
D he wants to witness a unique event.
3. In the fourth paragraph, what is the purpose of describing the preparations?
A. To show how beautiful the contestants become.
B. To give examples of Wodaabe beauty preparations.
C. To express the difficulty of costume-making.
D. To emphasize how stressful the Wodaabe find the Gerewol
4. The phrase 'atmosphere becomes more highly charged' in lines 40-41 suggests that
A. The dancers do not notice the excitement of the crowd.
B. The contestants are dancing harder despite being tired.
C. The dancers think the contest is getting more difficult.
D. The hot weather is starting to make the dancers tired.
5. What do we learn about the writer's feelings towards the festival?
A. He feels the competition isn't fair on the losers.

B. He thinks the tradition is worth keeping.
C. He believes the competition is nothing special.
D. He thinks it's too tiring for the Wodaabe men
