LISTENING (50 POINTS) Part 1. You will hear an interview in which two filmmakers, Tilly Woodford and Lee Davies, are talking about a documentary they have made about animals. For questions 1-5, select the best answer A, B, C or D. Read the questions carefully before playing the audio. In the exam, you will have the opportunity to listen to each recording TWICE. 1. Tilly says the initial inspiration for the documentary came from: A. experiencing an intense emotional bond with an animal B. wanting to encourage her own children to appreciate C. realising her understanding of animals was quite limited D. thinking about her childhood memories of keeping animals 2. How did Lee originally feel about working on the documentary? A. Curious about whether he would work with Tilly B. Guilty about having to abandon his other project C. Anxious about working in a different way D. Doubtful about the level of interest in the subject 3. What does Tilly suggest about the man she interviewed? A. He found it hard to take care of his pets B. He didn’t take his pets’ needs into consideration C. He disagreed with Tilly’s suggestions about pet nutrition D. He only focused on the fun sides of pet ownership 4. What discovery surprised Lee and Tilly most during their research? A. How far some people go to project wild animals B. How little is known about animal communication C. How much society’s attitudes to pets have changed D. How important the pet sector is to the economy 5. When reflecting on the documentary, they express regrets that: A. they had to cut several stories from the final version B. the documentary contained few of their own insights

3 LEE: At the risk of showing off, I'd say the documentary covers all these issues well. When you're dealing with individuals' personal experiences, it can easily become far too sentimental. Balancing it with factual content is important, especially subjects that provoke debate. Considering we had such tight financial constraints, I'm incredibly proud of what we achieved. I just wish we could have kept in all the content we originally filmed. But it just wasn't feasible. TILLY: Well, I'm just glad we didn't let our personal views or prejudices influence the documentary too much. That would have been a mistake. But like you say, I'll always wonder whether we should have kept in some of the parts we removed. I suspect all documentary makers hate the editing process. INTERVIEWER: Lee, Tilly, thanks. Part 2. For questions 6-10, listen to the recording and decide whether the following statements are True (T) or False (F). 6. In the past, science fiction fans imagined that jetpack would become a part of everyday life. T 7. The Rocket Belt developed by Wendell Moore was too slow. F 8. The thing which causes most difficulty for a pilot of a jetpack is the terrible heat. F 9. The main advantage of the EFV over a jetpack is flying much further. T 10. The company that makes the EFV also makes a type of helicopter. F TRANSCRIPT Thirty or forty years ago, fans of science fiction used to watch films about the future and dream of the kind of life we would all be living by the year 2000 - holidays to the moon, colonies in space, robots in the home. And weren’t jetpacks going to be one of the most thrilling parts of our future? After eating a protein pill for breakfast, we would then strap on our personal rocket packs and fly ourselves to our hi-tech offices in no time. But we’re now several years into the 21st century and so far, only 17 people have flown a jetpack. Apart from the occasional appearance as a novelty at sporting events or motor shows, it appears that jetpacks are permanently grounded. The idea of the jetpack originated way back in the 1920s in a science fiction comic called Buck Rogers, which later became a popular radio show and then a TV programme. The concept became a reality when Wendell Moore, an engineer at Bell Aerospace in the USA, developed the Rocket Belt, which had its first successful flight in 1961. Perhaps ‘flight’ is the wrong word. Even though the Rocket Belt could accelerate faster than a Formula 1 car, it only had a maximum time in the air of 30 seconds. With such a limited range, the U.S. military lost interest and NASA, who had thought about using them on their moon missions, did not invest money in the project. Jetpacks have failed to get off the ground ever since. However, a dedicated group of amateur engineers has continued to build, and attempt to fly, their own homemade jetpacks. The designs haven’t altered much since the first Bell Rocket Belt. In fact, they’re not
