Passage One
Most summer school courses in Britain last for two to four weeks. During that time students live either with a British family, or at the school, or in a hotel. They have about 15 hours of lessons every Monday to Friday, usually in the mornings. Each school has a lot of different courses. Some are for beginners and others are for intermediate or advanced students. The lessons are fun; the classes are small and the teachers are all from English-speaking countries. But summer school students don’t just speak English in the classroom. They are in Britain, so they speak and read and hear it outside, too. That’s why they learn so quickly and why a summer school course is really a holiday. Only one third of each course is taught in the classroom. The rest takes place during a busy afternoon and evening timetable of visits, sports and games. These activities help everyone to make new friends, have fun and improve their English.
Questions 11 to 13 are based on the passage you have just heard.
11. What kind of course do summer schools offer?
12. Why do summer schools arrange visits and other activities for the students?
13. Why do students in summer schools learn quickly?
Passage Two
This library is an English language teaching and learning library. Unfortunately our resources are limited and so not everyone can join. Teachers of English, university students and professionals who are in the medical, engineering and management fields can all join the library. Those from other professions are welcome to apply. But your application will not necessarily be approved. You must fill in a library application form and put it in the box on the libranrian’s desk. Because of the high number of applications we receive each week, you must wait one week. Please bring your student or work cards to pick up your library cards. Library application forms which are not picked up within 2 months will be discarded and you will have to reapply. You may borrow one video at a time. The video must be returned in one week. If you can not return it one time, please call. Otherwise your video library card will be cancelled. You may borrow 3 items at one time. That is 3 books or 3 cassettes. Items must be returned within 1 month. You can telephone the library to renew items for another month.
Questions 14 to 16 are based on the passage you have just heard.
14. Why can’t the library issue library cards to everyone who applies?
15. What will the library do if a reader fails to renew the videos when it is due?
16. For how long can a reader keep the book before he renews it?
Passage Three
Can you imagine ice that does not melt and is not wet? Have your ever heard of dry ice? Dry ice is made by freezing a gas. It is quite different from ordinary ice which is simply frozen water. Dry ice was first manufactured in 1925. It has since fulfilled the hopes of its inventor. It can be used for making artificial fog in the movies. When steam is passed over dry ice, a very dense vapor rises. It can also be used for destroying insects in grain supplies. It is more practical than ordinary ice because it takes up less space and it is 142 degrees colder. Since it turns into steam, instead of melting into water, it is cleaner to use. For these reasons, it is extremely popular and many people prefer it to ordinary ice. Dry ice is so cold that if you touch it with your hare fingers, it will burn you.
Questions 17 to 20 are based on the passage you have just heard.
17. What is dry ice made of?
18. How is an artificial fog made in the movies?
19. What is the advantage of dry ice over ordinary ice?
20. When was dry ice first made?
