For question 36-45, read the text. Use the words given in CAPITALS to form a word that fits in the numbered gaps. There is an example at the beginning (0). Write your answer on YOUR ANSWER part.

It is sometimes said that your schooldays are the (0. happy) days of your life, and people often feel that this should be a period of (36. ENJOY) enjoyment. However, exams often affect students’ happiness, and many students express a (37. PREFER) preference for alternative methods of assessment, where the work they do throughout the year counts towards their final mark. They say that exams test short-term memory and (38. KNOW) knowledge which is forgotten immediately after the exam. Also, assessing coursework as part of the final marks changes students' (39. BEHAVE) behaviour; making them more (40. RESPONSIBILITY)responsible about studying. There are some students, however, who prefer final examinations, saying that in (41. COMPARE) comparement they only have to work hard for two months a year and so they have more time for their leisure (42. ACT)activity. They say that some students receive (43. ASSIST) with their coursework from their parents, so it is not an accurate (44. MEASURE)measuring of how hard they have worked or of their real (45. ABLE)ability in the subject they are studying.

A Mission to Mars

Have you ever had a dream of traveling to another planet in our solar system? If you have, there is an actual programme that is happening right now, and it hopes to send people to Mars in 2023. Known as the Mars One Mission, it will send a crew of four people on a one -way mission to colonize Mars. Those chosen people will have to be ready to say good-bye to the earth forever, as there will not be a return trip. For the people chosen, they will have to learn to do many different things. First of all, they will be living the rest of their lives with just a handful of other people, so they all must have personalities that allow them to get along. Second, the living quarters that they will have won’t be very spacious, so they will have to deal with that condition as well. If they feel homesick, they will only be able to communicate with people back on the earth via e-mail, video and audio sent back and forth. However, there won’t be any real-time communication. Even at the speed of light, communication between the earth and Mars takes about 20 minutes. Whether the Mars One Mission will actually happen is the big question that a lot of people are asking. There is an enormous skepticism in the science community, and Wired magazine gave the mission a miserable score of two out of ten on its probability scale. However, for those who dream of going to Mars, at least they can say there is a possibility that it could happen.

1, Who might like to go on this mission ?

A. People who get along with thers

B. People who get homesick easily

C. People with angry personalities

D. People who don't like to communicate

2, What will NOT happen to the people who go on the Mars One Mission ?

A. They will communicate with people on the earth

B. They will have to live with other people

C. They will live in quarters that don't have a lot of space inside

D. They will return to the earth

4. Which of the following is considered miserable ?

A. A crew on board of the Mars One Mission

B. A score of the programme on the probability scale

C. A personality of people taking part in the programme

D. A mission of astronauts to the ISS

Most people's political activity is limited to voting in an election every few years. Other more committed, people regularly attend demonstrations about particular political issues. Then there are those who enter into correspondence with the politicians who represents them. They may write with reference to some national law which concerns them, with a proposal for a change in party policy or some thing concerned purely with local government anything in fact which they feel deserves the attention of their Member of Parliament. However, waiting for a reply requires a lot of patience and only few people would expect a profound and lengthy analysis of their original letter.

They wanted books because they were expensive and there was something magical about them. Only a few people were able to write, and it took an extremely long time to write a book. Monks and other people who could write said ordinary people could not learn to read.

Part 3: Read the passage below and choose the best answer for each question. (0,5pt)

These days we hear a lot of nonsense about the ‘great classless society’. The idea that the twentieth century is the age of the common man has become one of the great clichés of our time. The same old arguments are put forward in evidence. Here are some of them: monarchy as a system of government has been completely discredited. The monarchies that survive have been deprived of all political power. Inherited wealth has been savagely reduced by taxation and, in time, the great fortunes will disappear altogether. In a number of countries the victory has been complete. The people rule; the great millennium has become a political reality. But has it? Close examination doesn’t bear out the claim.

It is a fallacy to suppose that all men are equal and that society will be leveled out if you provide everybody with the same educational opportunities. (It is debatable whether you can ever provide everyone with the same educational opportunities, but that is another question.) The fact is that nature dispenses brains and ability with a total disregard for the principle of equality. The old rules of the jungle, ‘survival of the fittest’, and ‘might is right’ are still with us. The spread of education has destroyed the old class system and created a new one. Rewards are based on merit. For ‘aristocracy’ read ‘meritocracy’; in other respects, society remains unaltered: the class system is rigidly maintained.

Genuine ability, animal cunning, skill, the knack of seizing opportunities, all bring material rewards. And what is the first thing people do when they become rich? They use their wealth to secure the best possible opportunities for their children, to give them ‘a good start in life’. For all the lip service we pay to the idea of equality, we do not consider this wrong in the western world. Private schools which offer unfair advantages over state schools are not banned because one of the principles in a democracy is that people should be free to choose how they will educate their children. In this way, the new meritocracy can perpetuate itself to a certain extent: an able child from a wealthy home can succeed far more rapidly than his poorer counterpart. Wealth is also used indiscriminately to further political ends. It would be almost impossible to become the leader of a democracy without massive financial backing. Money is as powerful a weapon as ever it was.

In societies wholly dedicated to the principle of social equality, privileged private education is forbidden. But even here people are rewarded according to their abilities. In fact, so great is the need for skilled workers that the least able may be neglected. Bright children are carefully and expensively trained to become future rulers. In the end, all political ideologies boil down to the same thing: class divisions persist whether you are ruled by a feudal king or an educated peasant.

Part 6: Read the text about dreams. Then decide whether the sentences 1 to 7 are Right or Wrong. If there is not enough information in the text tick the column “doesn’t say”. Tick (ü) the ones that you choose. (0,7pt)

What’s in a dream?

Sometimes, after you wake up, you can’t stop thinking about a dream you had. But most of the time you forget your dreams very quickly or feel like you haven’t had any dreams. But you have. Most 15-year-olds have spent 15 months of their lives dreaming. But they only remember a few of their dreams.

Experts aren’t sure why we dream. But a lot of people think dreams show how we feel about things in our lives. All teens have to deal with similar things, like exam stress and hormones. So they often have similar dreams. For example they are flying over mountains and trees and feel very happy. This means that they are in control of their life and feel powerful. But if they find it difficult to fly, they feel powerless in real life and if there are things that get in their way, like trees or aeroplanes, there could be something that won’t let them do what they want.

Right

Wrong

Doesn’t say

1. 1. Very often we do not remember the dreams we have had at night.

2. 2. Sometimes it is better to forget quickly the dreams we have had.

3. 3. Some dreams can stay in our mind for some time.

4. 4. Experts think that dreaming is a way to deal with our daily problems.

5. 5. 15-year-olds dream more often because of their hormones.

6. 6. All 15-year-olds have the same sort of problems which means they often have the same sort of dreams.

7. 7. If you dream that you are flying this means you are very happy.
