Directions:- (17 – 22) Study the following information carefully and answer the questions below:
Nine years ago when several eastern European countries were making the transition from
communism to free market policies, inevitable difficulties arose in government, social, medical and
educational sectors. At that time I was elected to the SATE committee and my feelings was that we
teachers of English could make a contribution towards helping colleagues in one of these countries to
alleviate their very poor conditions.
The echo from members of our association was positive, and although help abroad was not a
function of SATE, a modest sum was approved to fund assistance in a limited way. Knowing that
most teachers have a number of superfluous English books on their shelves at home and at school, I
set out to collect these and send them to teachers of English In Albania. It was a known fact, how
classes functioned there – badly equipped schools, usually the teacher had a textbook (perhaps twenty
years old) and pupils – for reasons of economy – would write grammar notes and word lists in very
small writing in their notebooks. When we were able to send a class set to a fortunate teacher she was
delighted. At the same time I addressed pupils and asked them to write me a letter, explaining ‘why
we are learning English in our class’. It was surprising to read the replies I received, well written,
many in a refreshing, original style. The classes that submitted such a piece of work got an extra book
as a prize, usually an English dictionary. My contacts were usually members of the National Albanian
English Teachers’ Association (NAETA), and I coordinated the sorting and delivery of material with
the vice – president, MrsKsanthipiDodi.
When I received hundreds of books from our members, those of the ETAS and from other
sources, I enlisted the help of some volunteers to help sort and pack the books, tapes etc. ready for
dispatch. We invited teachers to come to Switzerland from Albania for a study period of two weeks,
sponsored by the International Teachers’ Exchange Organization and SATE. These colleagues usually
stayed with me and I set up a programme of visits to several types of schools, teacher training or
university courses for a short period. Sometimes they could attend ETAS convention, a WBZ course
or a professional workshop. The SATE and ETAS members were always ready to welcome our
guests, to discuss educational matters and to provide help, often showing hospitality at their schools or
their homes.
It was a memorable moment for me when I was invited to Albania as a guest of the NEATA,
to meet personally some of the teachers with whom I had been in correspondence. I was known at
schools all over the country as Mrs Jean and enjoyed hospitality at colleagues’ homes. At schools and
at Tirana University I gave some talks and workshops and was able to witness how some of the books
that we had sent were now the core of a new library, and to hear how teachers and educational
authorities were encouraged by the rather modest help we had provided.
In spring 1997, it became practically impossible to send books to Albania, on account of the
political crisis. I could not stockpile any more material, so reluctantly I sent the last load to schools in

Hungary, where the books and tapes were also welcome. The hospitality program continued until last
