And Juana Tomas, who squatted on Kino’s right hand because he was his brother, asked: “What will you do now that you have become a rich man?” Kino looked into his pearl, and Juana cast her eyelashes down and arranged her shawl to cover her face so that her excitement could not be seen. And in the glowing light of the pearl the pictures formed of the things Kino’s mind had considered in the past and had given up as impossible. In the pearl he saw Juana and Coyotito and himself standing and kneeling at the high alter, and they were being married now that they could pay. He spoke softly: “We will be married - in the church” In the pearl he saw how they were dressed ~ Juana in a shaw! stiff with newness and a new skirt, and from under the long skirt Kino could see that she wore shoes. It was in the pearl-the picture glowing there. He himself was dressed in new white clothes, And he carried a new hat-not of straw but of fine black felt ~ and he too wore shoes ~ not sandals but shoes that laced, But Coyotito — he was the one — he wore a blue sailor suit from the United States and a little yachting cap such as kino had seen once when a pleasure-boat put into the estuary. All of these things kino saw in the shining pear! and he said, “We will have new clothes”. ‘And the music of the pearl rose like a chorus of trumpets in the ears. Then to the lovely surface of the pearl ‘came the little things Kino wanted: a harpoon to take a place of one lost a year ago, a new harpoon of iron with a ring in the end of the shaft; and - his mind could hardly make the leap ~ a rifle - but why not, since he was so rich? And kino saw kino in the pearl, kino holding a Winchester carbine. It was the widest day dreaming and very pleasant. His lips moved hesitantly over this. “A rifle,” he said. “Perhaps a rifle” It was the rifle that broke down the barriers. This was impossibility, and if he could think of having a rifle whole horizons were burst and he could rush on, For it said that humans are never satisfied, that you give them one thing and they want something more. And this is said in disparagement’, where as it is one of the the species has and one that has made it superior to animals that are satisfied with what they The neighbors, close pressed and silent in the house, nodded their heads at his wild imaginings. And a man in the rear murmured: “A rifle, He will have a rifle”, But the music of the pearl was shrilling with triumph in Kino. Juana looked up, and her eyes were wide at Kino’s courage and at his imagination, And electric strength had come to him now the horizons were kicked out. In the pearl he saw Coyotito sitting at a little desk in a school, just as Kino had once seen it through an ‘open door. And Coyotito was dressed in a jacket, and he had on a white collar and a broad silken tie. Moreover, Coyotito was writing on a big piece of paper. Kino looked at his neighbors fiercely. “My son will {20 to school,” he said, and the neighbors were hushed. Juana caught her breath sharply. Her eyes were bright as she watched him, and she looked quickly down at Coyotito in her arms to see whether this might be possible, But Kino’s face shone with prophecy. “My son will read and open the books, and my son will write and will know writing. And my son will make numbers, and these things will make us free because he will know — he will know and through him we will know.” And in the pearl, Kino saw himself and Juana squatting by the little fire in the brush hut while Coyotito read from a great book. “This is what the pearl will do”, said Kino. And he had never said so many words together in his life. 1. Disapproval Now that you have read the story answer question six (6).

Read the excerpt from the novel The Tengue of the Dumb, by Dominic Mulaisho below and answer the questions that follow, At the village, the dance warmed up. Upon hearing that Dulani had gone in search of the child, Banda and his brother had volunteered to take his place at the big drum. The initiate was hoisted on a platform, where she sat, head bowed, while the people showered gifts on her Then it was her turn to dance for them, to dance in order to thank them, but also to dance to show them how she could dance for her future husband. At first the big drum beat slowly. The girl swayed her waist slowly, in tune to the drum, Standing there alone on the platform she looked half asleep. Then the smaller drums joined in and the dance began to quicken. She swung into the rhythm. Quicker and quicker the thythm went, and faster and faster she swayed her waist ut in the end, with arms delicately raised up, she looked once again like a graceful reed in a current. In the reflection of the fire her body was smooth, lithe, and beautiful. This was a great moment for the Chief, as it was for whoever was going to marry her. The hour was getting late, but Dulani had not retuned. Lubinda, noticing Natombi’s absence, quietly slipped away, and in a moment he was whispering ‘Odit” at Natombi’s door. “Who are you? Asked Natombi from within. ‘I am Lubinda,’ whispered the man outside. *I have come to find out about Dulani. Are he and the child back yet?” Natombi felt frightened. There was something which told her that this man was not come to help. Yet she was anxious. Dulani had not returned after all this time, although the child had been found shortly after he had left. QUESTIONS a) Decide on the teaching point you would choose based on the text above. b) Explain the lesson procedure (not a lesson plan) you would follow to teach the story in the text.
