Seen Comphrension for JSC

It was a nice warm evening in March. Anwar was reading a book in his bedroom at home, when his mother called him. When Anwar went downstairs, he found his mother with some visitors in the living room. ‘Some people have come to see your father,’ Mrs. Latifa Begum explained. ‘Look after them for a few moments, dear, while I go and get your father,’ she said. Then she left the room.
Suddenly Anwar felt embarrassed and shy. All his father’s visitors were grownups.’ I’m not an adult, because I’m only thirteen,’ Anwar thought to himself. ‘So, how can I look after all these grown up people?’
Anwar felt he had to say something interesting. ‘I’m not a child and in my class at school we talk about many interesting things,’ he thought. ‘So, what am I?’ Anwar didn’t know. He felt strange and couldn’t think of anything to say. So, he said nothing.
After a few minutes, his mother returned with his father and Anwar was able to relax again. Nobody looked at him any more and he could enjoy himself. Now he felt neither embarrassed nor shy. ‘But I’ll discuss my feelings with my mother some time,’ Anwar thought to himself ‘Because I still feel confused about them.’
