(5) As the traffic in Nairobi worsens, primary school pupils who depend on public transportation seem to be suffering the most as they try to keep up with the demands of school. Some private and public primary school pupils wake up as early as 4:00 a. m. to beat the traffic and be in class on time. In the evening, they may arrive home as late as 6:30 to 7:30 p. m.
The current floods in the city have not made life easier for the pupils. (6) Last week, 11 pupils from Makini Schools waited for 10 hours to be rescued when their school bus was nearly covered in water during a traffic jam. The students were rescued and taken to Boma Hotel. It was almost dawn when their parents came to pick them up.
A few years ago, the IBM Commuter Pain Index Report listed Nairobi among cities with the world’s longest traffic jams. The report concluded that traffic jams increase the level of stress and anger. This can create negative attitudes for commuters and affect their performance at work or school. (7) The long-term effect is that traffic problems can create a negative attitude in the pupils towards school.
5. What is the main idea of the news report?
6. What happened to the 11 pupils from Makini Schools last week?
7. What can we learn about traffic jams from the IBM’s report?
