Questions 16 – 25 Read the information given below and then answer the questions that follow. Ipoh Railway Station

Ngah Ibrahim Historical Complex

Of beautiful Moorish architecture combined with modern designs, the Ipoh Railway Station is a lovely structure that is filled with fascinating history. This impressive landmark has a well-kept floral garden that never ceases to hold visitors spellbound. According to the Perak state authorities, this well-loved spot has been given the nickname “the Taj Mahal of Ipoh” by the locals.

The original building on this site was built in 1854 and became Ngah Ibrahim’s residence. Like other forts in the state, this was also used as a storehouse for tin. After Ngah Ibrahim’s ouster from the area, the British converted it for their use. It served as the court where Dato’ Maharaja Lela and Dato’ Sagor were prosecuted for killing British Resident J.W.W. Birch in 1875.

Istana Iskandariah

Kellie’s Castle

The official residence of the Sultan of Perak, Istana Iskandariah is an imposing and awesome building that is located atop a hill known as Bukit Chandan in Kuala Kangsar. Sporting northern Indian Muslim architecture with distinctive Moorish design, Istana Iskandariah was built in 1926. If you are interested in this sort of architectural design, it is a must-see.

The ruins of Kellie’s Castle are located near Batu Gajah. The castle remains in ruins because the construction was never completed by the original owner due to his untimely death. Its allure and romance led these ruins to be chosen as one of the set locations for the filming of "Anna and the King" in the mid 1990’s.

King Edward VII School

Pasir Salak Historical Complex

Located at Station Road in Taiping town, the King Edward VII School was formerly known as the Central School. Opened in 1883, it was the first English school in the state of Perak. It had a name-change when it reopened in 1905. It has remained one of the most scenic schools in the state. Thanks to the 100-year-old Flame of the Forest trees on the grounds.

This complex is noted for its old Malay architecture and craft, and the wonderful workmanship of these wooden houses will amaze you. Each is beautifully decorated with intricate carvings, designs and motifs. Among them are two traditional houses which exhibit local historical and cultural memorabilia.

Grace Sulu’s typical day begins and ends with her two children, 5-year-old Alexis and 4 year-old Terence. She, however, spends almost the entire day with Alexis. “Alexis needs extra-special care and attention,” says Grace. Since she was 8 months old, Alexis is a child with special needs - paediatricians call it delayed developmental condition. “While other toddlers were beginning to run at 1½ years, Alexis was only learning to sit,” says Grace. A special child needs to be embraced, loved and cherished just as much as any other child. Yet there are differences: because he or she is special, your child requires special care, more attention and understanding. “My husband and I never thought there was anything wrong with Alexis,” Grace says. “We realized she was not quite alright when, at 8 months, she could barely flip over.” Hence, began the therapy sessions and homecare programmes for Alexis. Understanding your special child’s condition is key towards providing the appropriate parenting, care and professional therapy for his or her development. Early medical intervention and therapy can provide your child with a happy and independent future. Mentally and physically challenged people require a continuum of care over time linking families, schools, hospitals and outpatient facilities. Types of treatments include both individual and group psychological support such as psychotherapy or counseling. “A therapy programme is developed based on the mental and physical ability of the child to maximize his functions,” says Arthy Annamalai, senior therapists at the Therapy and Educational Assistance for Children in Mainstream Education (TEACH ME), Asian Women’s Welfare Association in Singapore. “The programme is tailored to help the child with his or her cognitive and social skills.” Two of the many medical challenges affecting children today are deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) and cerebral palsy (CP). ADHD is often treated with a range of psychostimulants. A major disadvantage of these medications is that they require several doses a day. Sometimes, these are administered with behaviaoral therapy, where the child is taught learning, sporting and socializing skills. Children with CP benefit from early treatment; the effects of the condition are greatly reduced with ongoing therapy. According to the National Dissimination Centre for Children with Disabilities (NICHCY), children younger than 3 years can benefit greatly from early intervention services, a system of services to support infants and toddlers with disabilities and their families. For older children, special education and related services can help each child achieve and learn. Children with CP usually require different types of therapy. These may include physical therapy, which helps the child develop stronger muscles to help him walk, sit and keep his balance. Occupational therapy helps the child develop fine motor skills such as dressing, feeding, writing and other daily tasks of living. Speech-language pathology helps the child develop his or her communication skills. The child may work particularly on speaking, which may be difficult due to problems with the muscle tone of the tongue and throat. Programmes that enhance the quality of the parent-child relationship can substantially improve the emotional, social, cognitive and physical developments

of special children. Such activities are particularly meaningful for mothers living in conditions of stress and social adversity. “It is important for parents to know how important sensory processing is and to understand how therapy can assist with their children’s development,” says Kim Nicolson, paediatric occupational therapist at the Kaleidoscope Therapy Centre. “How parents communicate with their child 50 plays a role in how responsive the child becomes. Using touch, movement, affection, gestures and vocal tones can help a child who struggles to engage in interaction develop emotionally and socially?” Medications are just one form of treatment. Today, there is a broad range of therapies available to help parents and their special child have a better quality 55 of life. Nicolson explains that many of these special children require different therapies and individual education programmes to help them reach their potentials. “Early intervention is extremely important. Parents should seek professional advise as soon as they observe any delays in their child’s development.” However, therapy can be expensive and parents may need to 60 prioritise which therapy will be most beneficial at a particular stage of the child’s development. Parents should be actively involved in their child’s therapy programme, learning hands-on on how to build their child’s skills at home. Says Nicolson, “Children whose parents are actively involved in carrying out home programmes usually make significantly faster progress.”

Then took the other, as just as fair, And having perhaps the better claim, Because it was grassy and wanted wear; Though as for that the passing there Had worn them really about the same, And both that morning equally lay In leaves no step had trodden black. Oh, I kept the first for another day! Yet knowing how way leads on to way, I doubted if I should ever come back.
