Daisy enjoys working as early as 5 a.m. She likes to prepare her ingredients and start baking in a quiet environment. During that time, she loves trying new recipes too. Sweet Dough Bakery is a small shop, so it does not have tables and chairs. There are only a countertop and a few stools. She makes cakes, cupcakes, glazed doughnuts, Danish pastries, muffins and pies. The only drink she serves is tea. Daisy has an assistant baker to help her and two waitresses cum cashiers. The bakery is open everyday from 9 a.m. to 7 p.m. except on Tuesdays. In January 2018, Daisy visited Italy. She went there to learn some Italian desserts. She spent a few weeks visiting bakeries, tasting popular desserts and learning how to make them. She tried various desserts and pastries. Among them, she loved two desserts the most which are cannoli and panna cotta. After she returned home, she decided to add them in her menu. Cannoli is a Sicilian pastry dessert. It consists of a tube-shaped shell of fried pastry dough filled with a sweet creamy filling. Panna cotta is a dessert made from sweetened thickened cream. The cream has a coffee flavour. Daisy tried panna cotta garnished with chocolate, caramel and a thick fruit sauce while in Italy. She liked it best with caramel. Her two new desserts have been a hit among customers since she started serving them in March 2018. Founded in

Part 4 You should spend about 20 minutes in this part. Read the text below and answer the questions that follow.

How Teenagers Can Earn Extra Money It is never too early to save! But if you feel you do not have enough pocket money to save and spend, you can either spend less or earn extra. The following are simple jobs you can do to earn extra money, Babysitting for your family, friends and neighbours is one possible option to earn some money. If you are a responsible person and like children, of course, this is a suitable part-time job for you. If you have never done babysitting before, you can offer to help out when one parent or an adult is at home. You should also know some basic first-aid procedures. Potential clients will be more confident to let you babysit their child if they know you have some prior babysitting experience and know what to do in an emergency situation. Doing gardening is another part-time job that you can try. It may be a heavy work but you do not need any experience. Many parents are too engaged to spend their time on gardening. However, they still want a clean garden. Inform your neighbours or post a notice on the community noticeboard to offer your gardening service. You can rake leaves, trim bushes or cut the grass for a fee. If the work is too heavy for one person, consider teaming up with a friend or a cousin. Share the work and the proceeds. Another part-time job to do is to help your elderly neighbours with errands. If there are elderly neighbours who need help, talk to them about how you can help them. Make sure you tell them that it is a paid service. Some of the work you can offer to do are buying groceries, gardening, moving furniture or fixing computer problems. One other suitable part-time job is to be a tutor. If you are a smart student, you can tutor younger children. Tutoring is not limited to academic subjects only. If you are talented in playing a musical instrument, consider giving music lessons. You probably already have household chores to do. But why don’t you ask your parents if you can take on more chores for a reasonable fee? If your parents usually send their cars to a car wash, ask them to let you do it for RM10. If the fee is too high, try to negotiate with them. Once your parents see what a good job you have done, you can ask for a higher fee. If you are an animal lover, caring for pets is another way to earn extra money. Tell your family, friends and neighbours that you are available to look after their pets when they are away on holidays. Sending pets to a pet boarding can be very expensive. You can offer an attractive one-off fee to entice more customers to let them leave their pets under your care.

Choose no more than five words and/or a number from the text for each answer. 25. A person who is responsible, likes children and knows _______________________ can do babysitting. 26.

Village King Nasi Lemak If you love nasi lemak as I do, you would have heard of Village King Nasi Lemak. The location of this restaurant is on Jalan Imbi, Kuala Lumpur. It is a coffee-shop designed like a premise with many windows. (35) ________ It is clean too. I caught a strong whiff of fragrant rice the moment I entered the restaurant. (36) ________ I noticed that the waiters were quick in taking down orders. Since it was my first visit to the restaurant, I asked the waiter for his suggestions. He suggested spicy squid nasi lemak. My order arrived within five minutes. At first, I thought it was just my waiter who was efficient. (37) ________ My mouth immediately began to water when the waiter placed a plate of spicy squid nasi lemak in front of me. (38) ________ It was filled with some pieces of spicy squids, fried peanuts, anchovies, a few slices of cucumber and some sambal served around the rice. I tried the sambal with some rice first. It was spicy but was not sweet or oily. Next, I tried some pieces of spicy squids with rice. (39) ________ The peanuts were crunchy and the fried anchovies were neither salty nor oily. Overall, the entire dish was very delicious. I prefer the sambal more than the squids. (40) ________ I would come back here again. Next time, I will only order a plate of plain nasi lemak. A. B. C. D. E. F. G. H.

The rice was served in a large plate. It was so good that I ordered another. Therefore, it was bright and airy. The portion served was generous. But I noticed that the rest too provided fast service. The squid was tender and thankfully not tough. The sambal is one of the best I have tried. A waiter came to get my order as soon as I sat down.
