Task 1
Questions 1-12

You are going to read an article in which people talk about shopping.
For questions 1-12, choose from the people A-F.
Mark your answer on the answer sheet.
There is an example at the beginning (0).
Anyone for Shopping?

Alex

Bruno

I simply adore those enormous shopping

malls that theyve recently built in the
centre of the city. I always try to take
advantage of any price reductions that
they might have, especially on jeans or
shoes. Occasionally, I dont even get
anything, but it doesnt bother me. I just
love the places and the atmosphere there.
Everythings so shiny and attractive. Some
people say that they are impersonal. But
do you really want to get to know the shop
assistant?

Those big malls on the outskirts are

absolutely great places to hang out in.
However, I must confess though that I
actually cant stand the stores themselves.
In fact, I cant bear any kind of store. If you
ask me, people are always wasting their
money on things that arent necessary.
Thats why I steer clear of them. But the
cafs and bars are totally cool. You can
also get something to eat like a burger or
slice of pizza. Theyve got a really decent
range.

Chris

For me shopping is something much more

than a necessity. I get a real pleasure out
of it. Everyone needs to escape from the
pressures and demands of everyday life,
and a bit of retail therapy is the way that
I handle stress. However, if you ask me,
it should be a solitary activity without the
distraction of friends. I also never come
back without purchasing something to
wear. My friends think that its terribly
extravagant, but thats the kind of
person I am.

Diana

After weve finished doing the weekly

shopping, we sometimes take the kids
to see the latest blockbuster. They love
the look of these big, bright malls where
we shop. Its one of the highlights of the
week for them both. The only thing is that
everywhere is so packed these days.
Sometimes you can barely move. You
also spend so much money but you feel
like you havent actually bought anything.
I suppose thats just part of modern life. At
the end of the day, its worth it though.

Of course, supermarkets might very

well be cheaper, but it takes absolutely
ages to get there and then you have to
hang around with masses of people in
enormous queues all day. Its simply
unbearable. In my local shop, I get
everything done quickly. I always have a
little chat with the owner too. Weve known
each other for years. You dont get that in
a huge store. Theyre so cold. I hate them
all. I swear that youll never catch me in
one again as long as I live.

Fran

It really gets me down when we have to go

shopping with the kids. Its not waiting in
a line with them. I can handle that. Its just
that theyre always asking for something.
Sometimes, I feel like Im going to explode.
We end up getting useless stuff that wasnt
even on the list. Sometimes I really wonder
if they think that were made of money. Its
completely different when we go alone and
leave the children at home. I quite enjoy it
then.

Task 2
Questions 13-18

Read the article about a celebrity chef. For questions 13-18, choose the correct answer
(A, B, C or D). Mark your answer on the answer sheet.

Adam Walker Celebrity Chef

My first contact with the restaurant trade came when I was about fourteen. I was looking for a
weekend job to earn a bit of money, so I asked my uncle if I could help out at his restaurant. I just
used to peel the potatoes and wash the dishes, but I absolutely loved the place, especially the
kitchen. It was full of noise and there were people running around everywhere. I was fascinated
by it all, and I actually got paid for it! Even the occasional celebrity would come into the restaurant.
Everyone was really friendly too.
I found school hard and did poorly in my final exams, so I decided to leave at sixteen to train to
become a chef. My friends laughed about it and joked that cooking was for girls. That didnt bother
me, though.
It was exhausting at college and I had to get used to getting up earlier than when I was at school.
The really tough bit was the practical part of the course. This was when we had to go and work in a
kitchen. Some of the chefs could get really angry if you made a mistake. I nearly ended up in tears
on more than one occasion, although I can laugh about it now. Nevertheless, I learnt a lot about the
profession during this time. It didnt seem to matter that I had no social life.
After college, I worked for a couple of years in London. However, I realised that there were so
many graduates that if I really wanted to succeed, I had to do something different. Thats why I
got a job in Italy. It was great learning to cook in another culture, although I struggled a bit with the
language at first. I could have spent more time there, but a year seemed about right, especially when
you consider the long shifts I was working. Italys an amazing place. I wish I had travelled round
more. Maybe Ill buy a holiday home in Tuscany one day.
When I got back home to Britain, I opened up my own restaurant. We do all sorts of fish dishes
from tuna steaks to squid and octopus. Im on my feet all day, but Ive got no regrets.
Im very passionate about cooking, and one day someone suggested that I should write a book.
Living abroad makes you appreciate your own culture more, so I decided Id do something on our
national cuisine. After all, youve got books on everything from low-fat diets and vegetarianism to
how to cook on a small budget. I knew there was a market for books on cooking, and I was right. The
book became an enormous success.
I often get asked how the TV programme about me started. A lot of people assume we just wanted
to copy the cooking programmes that were already on television. What actually happened is that one
day a friend who works in TV turned up to interview me about my book for the local news. When she
arrived, I was having this furious argument with one of the waiters. Hed been rude to a customer and
I was really angry. I even smashed a plate on the floor. The camera crew thought that this was great
TV and thats how the series about my restaurant was born.

There are two letters which you do not need.

Shark Attack!
Itwas summer 2006 and Iwas swimming off Sunrise Beach in Cape Town. Sightings of
sharks in that area had been increasing, although they werent something I ever worried about. I
I Two guys stayed in a

boat nearer theshore while Stan and I swam alittle farther out. Then something caught my eye
I looked around and saw a large shark fin darting towards my brother. I screamed tothe guys
in the boat to get Stan out. (19) ___. It worked. But now the fin turned and came towards me,
beforedisappearing.
I felt relieved that Stan was safe,but scared because I was now the only person in the water.
Seconds later, ahuge black shape rose up beside me. I was face to face with a 15ft great
white. Itouched the shark with my feet totry to push myself away andit swung its body round,
making acolossal splash. I tried desperately to push myself up, but for some reason my right
leg wouldnt move. I looked down and saw why: everything below my knee was in the sharks
mouth. (20) ___. I thought about not being able to say goodbye to my parents, that this was the
end.
I shouted to the guys in the boat. There hadnt been time for them to reach me or call for
help theyd only just picked up my brother. (21) ___. By now I was dangling against theside of
thesharks body, out of breath and in shock. Then it took me underwater, shaking me with my
leg in its mouth. (22) ___. Im not going down without a fight, I thought. I started attacking the
shark with all my remaining strength, grabbing its eye and punching its nose.
I gave one last enormous push and heard a great snapping sound. Suddenly, I was free.
(23) ___. The boat was nearer now, and Stan saw me floating in the water. He grabbed my hand
and started pulling me out. I didnt know it, but halfway downmy shin there was nothing left.
At the hospital, they did two amputations, the first to tidy up the wound, the second one
to enable me to use a prosthesis. I certainly had my dark times, and at first was angry about
what had happened to me. I even thought about ending it all. (24) ___. So I set my sights
on makingthe national swimming team, and in2008 I represented South Africa at the
BeijingParalympics.
I know it sounds strange, but Im very happy with how things turned out. I was just in the
wrong place at the wrong time.
