Part One : Reading And Interpreting (15pts)
A/ Comprehension: Read the text carefully and do the activities.

Education is a major issue in Madagascar, where two thirds of the population live in severe poverty. Many children, particularly, in rural and remote areas are out of school. To improve this situation especially for those living in the most remote and vulnerable zones, the Ministry of Education has been working, since 2005, to develop distance education via radio programmes.
The main audience for the programmes are children aged between five and nine years. The 15 Minutes programmes will be broadcast four times. It is hoped that the programmes will encourage, out-of-school into the classrooms.During re-broadcasting on Saturday afternoons, parents can listen with children. A special focus is placed on developing life skills, such as self-esteem, getting along with others, communication, gender equality, assessing risks, decision making and protecting the environment.
“Children learn most when they are having fun. I am convinced that these radio programmes will contribute towards access to and quality of education in Madagascar,” says a UNICEF representative.
