Part 1. For Questions 1-6, you will hear a conversation between a teenage boy, Josh and his friend, Lucy about learning to drive. Choose True (T) or False (F) for each question. (0.75 point) 1. Josh does not think that parking is the hardest thing to learn. F 2. Lucy thinks that she is too young to learn to drive. T 3. Josh's parents are keen on giving him lifts. F 4. Josh is not confident that he will pass his driving test soon. T 5. Josh's parents have not offered to buy him a car. F 6. Josh and Lucy disagree that driving to college would be expensive. F TRANSCRIPT LUCY: Hi Josh. I just saw you having your driving lesson. How did it go? JOSH: It was okay. I'm getting better on most things anyhow. I had to do some parking at the end and I kept getting that wrong. It must be the most difficult thing to learn. LUCY: I'm sure it's all hard. My sister's just learnt to drive, but I've decided to leave it for another year or two. I don't think I'm old enough really. I don't want the responsibility and I know I'd get nervous. JOSH: I know what you mean. I just don't want to keep asking my parents for lifts. They don't want to drive me everywhere and it would be easier for them if I could drive. LUCY: It would be useful. I realise that. But what about your test? Are you ready to take that soon? JOSH: I'm not so sure. I think I'll need a few more lessons. If I took it next week, I don't think I'd do very
2 well. LUCY: Well, I'm sure you'll be okay when you've had some more lessons. Are you going to get your own car after your test? JOSH: My parents have said they'll get one for me. They know I can't really afford it and they don't mind helping. LUCY: You're very lucky. Are you planning to drive to college each day then? Or is that too expensive? JOSH: I've thought about it, but I think the petrol would cost too much and there's nowhere to park. I think I'll carry on getting a bus. LUCY: Maybe that's best and it would be cheaper. Well, good luck with the lessons. I'm sure you'll be fine. JOSH: Thanks. See you soon. Part 2.

3 Man:   Today I’m talking to Marta Stanston, who runs her own ‘mobile’ restaurant. Marta, how did you get into the restaurant business? Marta:   Well, I learnt to cook at college. I always wanted to open my own restaurant – but had no money. So I got a job as a chef. I had all sorts of ideas for new dishes, which the staff thought would sell, but the guy who owned the place wasn’t interested. That’s when a friend told me about the ‘mobile restaurant’ idea. It sounded great. Man:   Tell us about it. Marta:   Well, it works like this: you decide on a menu – obviously you have to be able to cook – then you advertise it so people can book a meal. The most amazing thing is all the advertising’s done through social- networking websites. People set up tables in their sitting-room, or in a city car park, an empty factory – anywhere in fact. And because you know how many people you’re cooking for, food doesn’t get wasted. Man:   So why was it good for you? Marta:   Well, various reasons. Like, I could buy all the ingredients without risk because you make customers pay in advance. The greatest advantage, though, is by having a maximum of ten customers, I didn’t need to hire a waiter. Then, of course, I could prepare everything at home – just take a camping gas cooker with me, plus some plates, glasses, knives and forks. Man:   Do you never run into problems? Marta:   The whole experience is fun. People watch you cook and the atmosphere’s relaxed. I did one meal on a beach which almost went wrong because I didn’t think about the wind blowing sand into people’s food. Fortunately, I’d brought a large umbrella to protect myself from the sun, so I put it around their table instead! Man:   And you sometimes use your own flat? Marta:   If the weather’s bad, people come to my home instead, but it gets very crowded. Even though I’ve actually got enough chairs and a big table, it’s not ideal. I was worried we might disturb the neighbours, but they’ve been alright about it. I love the temporary feel of the mobile idea, so home’s not really what it’s about. Man:   So, what’s the future of mobile restaurants? Marta:   Well, it’s rather uncertain. Lots of new ones are popping up because it’s become fashionable. I think health inspectors will want to check them out. That doesn’t worry me, because I’m a trained chef. But if someone got ill in a less serious one, we might all get a bad name. So I guess inspections are a good thing. Part 3. For Questions 13-20, you will hear a radio presenter called Jim Dunne talking about local entertainment options. Write NO MORE THAN THREE WORDS for each gap. (1.0 point) Jim recommends Paganini to (13) _____whole family______. Jim saw a Paganini concert last year in (14) ______Mexico_____.
4 As well as classical music, Paganini plays rock, blues and (15) _____country and western______. Jim says the Paganini show has no (16) _____interval______. The first performance of Rhythm of the Dance was in (17) ______1999_____ in Norway. More than (18) ______four million_____ people have seen Rhythm of the Dance live on stage. Jim suggests listeners look at the section entitled (19) ______Photo gallery_____ on the Rhythm of the Dance website. The name of the first show that the Cirque Éloize performed at the Regent Theatre was (20) ______Rain_____. TRANSCRIPT Paganini is actually based in Madrid, but the show tours a lot, and I was lucky enough to see it last year with my wife and our two girls when we were in Mexico. There are really versatile bunch of musicians. At one point, they start using their violins and cellos as guitars, mandalins, and even percussion instruments. And they move away from classical into rock, blues, and country and western. Very impressive, and we're all looking forward to seeing them again. They're on stage for about 90 minutes, but it's a very intense hour and a half, I can tell you. It's exhausting just watching them, and they don't stop for an interval either. Now, for those of you who like Irish dancing, there's rhythm of the dance at the Apollo Theatre. Most of you will know about River Dance, which began way back in 1994, at the Eurovision Song Contest in Dublin, curiously enough. But rhythm of the dance goes back a long way too. It started out just five years later in 1999 in Norway. It's a similar kind of thing, the traditional music, the step dancing and so on, but there's a theme running through it. It's a kind of history of the Irish Celts. I haven't seen it yet, but I certainly will do. They're clearly very popular. It says here in the publicity that rhythm of the dance has played to live audiences totalling well over four million, in no fewer than 44 countries. And if you want to find out more about the show, go to their website. There isn't any reviews section to look at there, but if you click on where it says Photo gallery, you get a pretty good idea of what to expect. Now, the circus is back in town. Not just any circus, but the hugely talented Siak Elwas from Canada. They're at the Regent Theatre again. The show's called ID, and it promises to be every bit as good as the one they put on the first time they were there. That one was called Rain, as in the wet stuff that falls from the sky. And there was plenty of water on stage, as you'll remember if you had to see it. ---THIS IS THE END OF LISTENING SECTION--- SECTION 2: USE OF ENGLISH (2.5 points) Part 1.
