 Jann Mardenborough
Jann Mardenborough has loved cars since he was given a toy one as a baby. He loved
them so much that when he was eight, his father took him to a place where children race
small cars called karts. Staff at the kart centre told Jann he drove so well, he might one
day become a racing driver. Unfortunately, the kart centre closed soon afterwards, and
there wasn't another one near enough to his home that he could get to.
As he couldn't race karts any more, Jann decided to try computer racing games. After
lots of practice, he became very good. However, he never told his parents what he was
doing. Then, one day, when he was 18, he told them that he was one of the top ten
winners of a computer racing competition. They were very surprised. His prize was to
drive a real car in a race against the other nine top players.

It was Jann's first time in a racing car, but, amazingly, he won the race! The prize this
time was a free course to learn to be a racing driver. He did really well, and has found a
job driving in a racing team.

(B), choose ‘Doesn’t say’ (C).
For questions 21-27, click on the correct letter A, B or C.

An Amazing Adventure
Erden Erug is Turkish but now lives in Seattle, USA, with his wife Nancy. In July 2012,
he completed an amazing 5-year journey, becoming the first person ever to travel all the
way around the world with no help from engines or sails. All he used were his own arms
and legs, to cycle, row, and walk around the world.
His plan before beginning the trip was to climb the highest mountain on each of the six
continents that he went through. Unfortunately, he was only able to climb three of them
because of the bad weather and money problems.
Erden spent a lot of his time on the trip rowing his boat. His journey across the Pacific
Ocean took 312 days. Being alone for that much time was not at all easy, but he kept
busy by listening to music and studying Spanish. He took dried food with him and had a
water machine to make fresh water out of seawater. However, it only worked on sunny
days.
Erden is sure he will have more adventures one day. But at the moment all he wants to
do is rest, think about his trip and spend time with Nancy.

 Chloe Hanslip

Chloe Hanslip was born in England. Her father works with computers and her mother teaches
dance. Chloe began playing the violin when she was two. Her parents bought her a special
violin which was small enough for her to use. Her sister played the piano and after Chloe heard
her play something, she tried to play it on her violin. From the age of four, she played at
concerts in Britain and America and in 1999, she was a child violinist in the Hollywood film
Onegin.
Many teachers offered to give Chloe lessons but when she was seven she met Professor Zakhar
Bron, she was certain that he was the right teacher for her. His work takes him around the world
and each year she flies thousands of kilometres to his classes.

Chloe was only fourteen when she made her first CD, but she says she is just like any other
teenager. “I have lots of friends and I love pop music. Getting better on the violin is important,
but I also make sure I have time for other things”

Vitamins that boosted student’s brain power

A secondary school has claimed to have improved their students' reading and writing
skills by giving the children vitamins.

Children took the vitamins and had three extra lessons during the three months
experiment. The children who took the vitamins could read and write better than those who
didn't. The children were also able to concentrate better on their homework.

The children were tested on their reading and writing skills before and after the
experiment. Teachers found that after the experiment 58% of the children had improved their
reading skills and 38% had improved their spelling and writing skills.

Teachers believe that the experiment shows how a poor diet with not many vitamins
affects children's learning. The school now has lessons teaching the children how to eat healthy.

EXAMPLE ANSWER: B
