PASSAGE II Like a clock with the pendulum in full swing, the mind moves as fast as time. But we ought to mind our thoughts for if they turn to be our enemies, they will be too many for us and will drag us down to ruin. But some people may say that they cannot help having bad thought even though they sting like vipers. That may be so, but the question is, do they hate them or not? We cannot keep thieves from looking in at our window, but if we open our doors to them and receive them joyfully, we are as bad as they. We cannot help the birds flying over our head; but we may keep them from building their nets in our hair. Vain thought will knock at the door but we must not open to them. Though bad and evil thought rise in our hearts, they must not be allowed to reign. He who turns a morsel over and over in his mouth dose so because he likes the flavour, and he who meditate upon evil, love it, and is ripe to commit it. Think of the devil, and he will appear, turn your thought toward evil and your hands will soon follow. Snails leaves their slime behind them, and so do vain thought. An arrow may fly through the air, and leaves no trace, but an evil thought always leaves a trail like a serpent. Where there is much traffic of bad thinking, there will be much mire and dirt. Every wave of wicked thought adds something to the corruption which rots upon the shore of life. It is dreadful to think that a vile imagination, once indulge, gets the key of our minds, and can get in again very easily, whether or not we let it in, and what may follow, no one knows. Nurse evil on the laps of thought, and it will grow into a giant. Therefore; there is wisdom in watching every day, the thought and imagination of our heart. Good thoughts are blessed guest and should be welcome, and much sought after, but bad thought must fly out as swiftly as they moved in. 6. Which of the following represents the writer

        A.  evil thought may come but there is virtue in keeping them out

        B.   evil thought will continue to sting us likes vipers as long as there are enemies who cause offence

        C.   like the pendulum, evil thought will always come to our mind no matter what we do

        D.   like most birds, evil thoughts fly swiftly in our minds without perching

About Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board JAMB

By 1974, there were seven (7) Federal Universities in the country. Every one of these existing universities conducted its own concessional examination and admitted its students. However, this system of admission revealed serious limitations and quite often, waste of resources in the process of administering the concessional examination especially on the part of the candidates. The general untidiness in the uncoordinated system of admissions into universities and the attendant problems were sufficient cause for concern to the committee of vice - chancellors. These problems had assumed new dimension when by 1976, the then federal military government, under the leadership of General Olusegun Obasanjo, established six (6) additional universities. Consequently, the government set up a national committee on university entrance under the chairmanship of Mr. M. S. Angulu.

The Committee was specifically requested to consider the possibility of setting up a Joint Matriculation Board.The Committee recommended the setting up of two (2) bodies, the Central Admissions Board and the Joint Matriculation Board. The Federal military government accepted some of the recommendations of the committee and set up the Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board. The legal instrument establishing the Board was however promulgated by the act (no. 2 of 1978) of the Federal Military Government on 13th February, 1978.

By August 1988, the Federal Executive Council amended decree No. 2 of 1978 to empower the Board to conduct matriculation examinations for entry into all polytechnics and colleges of education in the country and to place suitably qualified candidates in the available places in these institutions.

The amendments have since been codified into decree No. 33 of 1989, which took effect from 7th December, 1989.
