Question II. Read the following passage and choose the correct answer (A, B, C or D) for each question.
THE ARTIST
People think being an artist must be a wonderful way to earn one's living. And of course, there are lots of great things about working for oneself, at home alone, even in a cold studio like mine. What I really like is that nobody tells me what time to start in the morning. I like to paint as soon as I wake up, which is always early, but isn't the same time every day. And nobody tells me what to wear, or whether I can take the afternoon off and go to a football match.
But then, I have no one to chat with when I'm bored, no one to discuss last night's match with during the office lunch hour. Sure, I can spend the afternoon doing something I enjoy like cycling or gardening if I choose. But the work will still be there when I do finally get back home.
Unfortunately, working at home means that people can always find me, whether I'm bored or not, and once I've answered the doorbell, it's too late - my thoughts have been interrupted. No one would dream of calling in if I worked in an office, but I find myself listening to friends' troubles. As they talk, my ideas disappear and I feel increasingly stressed thinking of my work waiting to be done.
However, when I hear the traffic news on the radio, and imagine my friends sitting miserably in their cars in a jam, feeling bored, or waiting unhappily for an overcrowded tram in the rain, I realise that I really haven't got much to complain about. I find a CD which will start me thinking, turn it up really loudly and begin another picture.
1. What is the writer trying to do in the text?
A. encourage readers to work at home B. explain why he has changed his job
C. describe his working life D. say how he would like to work
2. What does the writer like about his life?
A. He has plenty of opportunities for sport. B. He is his own boss.
C. He needn't work in the morning. D. He has a comfortable place to work.
3. What does the writer imagine he might do with colleagues?
A. have meals in restaurants B. go to the swimming pool
C. spend time in the countryside D. talk about sport
4. The writer plays loud music because
A. the traffic outside is noisy. B. it helps him to have ideas.
C. it prevents him from feeling bored. D. he dislikes listening to the radio.
5. Which of these notices would be most useful for the writer to put on his door?
A. I'm working, please don't disturb. B. Please call at my office for an appointment.
C. Please knock before entering. D. No visitors allowed during office hours.
Question III. Insert ONE suitable word in each of the blanks to complete the following passage.
Along with jogging and swimming, cycling is (1)______of the best all-round forms of exercise. It can help to (2) ______ your strength and energy, giving you (3) _______ efficient muscles and a stronger heart. But increasing your strength is (4) ______ the only advantage of cycling. Because you (5) ______ not carrying the weight of your body on your feet, it's a good (6) ______ of exercise for people with painful feet or backs. However, with all forms of exercise it's important to start slowly and build (7) ______ gently. Doing (8) ______ much, too quickly can damage muscles that aren't used to working. If you have (9) ______ doubts about taking up cycling for health reasons, talk to your doctor and ask (10) ______ his/her advice.
