Daima lawama za kutofaulu hutupiwa Mwalimu. Kama Mwalimu angewakusanya
wanafunzi wote darasani baada ya matokeo kutoka na kupitia madaftari kuona
waliyojifunza, nani angeliumbuka? Mimi sijui. Ninachofahamu ni kwamba mtihani
haushushwi kwa miujiza bali hutungwa kufuata muhtasari ambapo pia walimu
wanatumia kufundishia. Sasa iweje wewe umlaumu Mwalimu?
Kuanzia leo nakusihi anza kusoma kwa bidii kwa kuzingatia yote uliyofundishwa na
kuyaweka kichwani. Hapo utakuja kuniambia kutofaulu ni kosa la Mwalimu au lako?
Acha kupambana na mambo ya anasa yanayokuzunguka mtaani. Kufaulu masomo
kunahitaji kujisomea kwa bidii na nidhamu ya hali ya juu.

rainfall on the earth is measured by an instrument known as rain gauge. The standard unit for
measuring rainfall is millimeters.

Rain condition varies from time to time in a year. In some months of the year, the heavy
rains are experienced, while in some other months of the year little rains are experienced. For
example, in Tanzania the long rainy season is experienced between March and May, while the short
rainy season is experienced between September and December. Furthermore, Tanzania experienced
hot and dry season between January and March.
