ACTIVITY 1
Below are five paragraphs describing different parts of the story. They contain 10 errors in total.
Find the errors and correct them. If a sentence contains an error, rewrite that sentence in your
script, at the back (Dreaming section). Remember the heading and the date.
Paragraph 1: Regile Dlamini is in charge of a team of young boys (the ‘recruits’) who have
been illegally trafficked into South Africa to work in an abandoned coal mine in
Johannesburg, and have been underground for two months now. He has been working in
this mine for four years and has earned the trust of his boss, Spike Maphosa. He is paid a
salary which he sends to his mother, and has been allowed to visit her a few times in
Mozambique. He always chooses to come back to the mine to earn more money. He has no
hope for a better life for himself and does not believe that he can do anything else.
Paragraph 2: Security guards sent by the legal owners of the mine arrive and there is a gun
battle between them and the illegal miners. A fire injures and traps Aires. Regile organises
the opening of the rocks and Taiba squeezes in to rescue a bleeding Aires.
Paragraph 3: They are transported to Papa Mavuso’s house and the new ‘recruits’ are
given comfortable beds to sleep on. Regile reports to his boss about the last three
months underground and Papa Mavuso rewards him for being obedient.
Paragraph 4: Regile meets Katherine, Papa Mavuso’s blind daughter, who is bullied by
her father and very unhappy.
Paragraph 5: When Regile returns from Barberton, he finds the daughter being beaten for trying to
free the recruits and that Aires has escaped. Regile stands up to Papa Mavuso who threatens to
report him to the police. Regile realises that Papa Mavuso is a violent bully without any kindness.
ACTIVITY 2
CHARACTERISTIC (CHARACTER TRAIT)
This is a feature/certain quality belonging to a person. Character traits can be
good or bad. They are often labelled with descriptive adjectives such as patient,
jealous, faithful.
NOTE: When you are asked in a test or exam to identify a character’s suitable
character trait, remember to use an adjective. Look at the context of the extract
and try to determine how that character is in that situation, not what he does.
E.g. ‘He doesn’t know what to do’ is not a characteristic – rather write ‘He
is doubtful/hesitant/tentative…’.
The following table contains various character traits. Choose three of
these traits for each of the characters below, as they emerge in the novel.
Write down the numbers from 1-6, with three suitable traits next to them.
