1. Read the following passage and answer the questions that follow: 5×3=15
As readers will discover, this book has a long history. I began writing it secretly in 1974 during my imprisonment on Robben Island. Without the tireless labour of my old comrades Walter Sisulu and Ahmed Kathrada for reviving my memories, it is doubtful the manuscript would have been completed. The copy of manuscript which I kept with me was discovered by the authorities and confiscated. However, in addition to their unique calligraphic skills, my co-prisoners Mac Maharaj and Isu Chiba had ensured that the original manuscript safely reached its destination. I resumed work on it after my release from prison in 1990.
Since my release, my schedule has been crowded with numerous duties and responsibilities, which have left me little free time for writing. Fortunately I have had the assistance of dedicated colleagues, friends and professionals, who have helped me complete my work at last and to whom I would like to express my appreciation. Thanks are again to my comrade Kathrada for the long hours spent revising, correcting and giving accuracy to the story.
