Part 2: The passage below contains 10 mistakes. Underline the mistakes and write their correct forms in
the space provided in the column on the right. An example has been done for you. Feminine – feminist
A feminine is a person, usually a woman, who believes that women should be regarded as equally to men.
She, or he, deplores discrimination against women in the home, place of work or anywhere, and her principle
enemy is the male chauvinist, who believes that men are naturally super. Tired of being referred to as “the
weaker sex”, women are becoming more and more militancy and are winning the age-old battle of the sexes.
They are sick to death of sexy jokes which poke fun at women. They are no longer content to be regarded as
second-class citizens in terms of economic, political and social status. They criticize beauty contests and the
use of glamour female models in advertisements which they describe as the exploit of female beauty, since
women in these situations were represented as mere sex objects. We no longer live in the male-dominate
societies of the past. Let us hope, moreover, that the revolution stops before we have a boring world in
which sex doesn’t make much difference. We already have unisex hairdressers and fashions. What next?

Part 3: Read the following passage and choose the the correct answer to each of the questions. Write the
correct answer (A, B, C or D) in the box given.(20p)
While many nineteenth–century reformers hoped to bring about reform through education or by
eliminating specific social evils, some thinkers wanted to start over and remark society by founding ideal,
cooperative communities. The United States seemed to them a spacious and unencumbered country where
models of a perfect society could succeed. These communitarian thinkers hoped their success would lead to
imitation, until communities free of crime, poverty, and other social ills would cover the land. A number of
religious groups, notably the Shakers, practiced communal living, but the main impetus to found model
communities came from nonreligious, rationalistic thinkers.
Among the communitarian philosophers, three of the most influential were Robert Owen, Charles
Fourier, and John Humphrey Noyes. Owen, famous for his humanitarian policies as owner of several
thriving textile mills in Scotland, believed that faulty environment was to blame for human problems and
that these problems could be eliminated in a rationally planned society. In 1825, he put his principles into
practice at New Harmony, Indiana. The community failed economically after a few years but not before
achieving a number of social successes. Fourier, a commercial employee in France, never visited the United
States. However, his theories of cooperative living influenced many American through the writings of
Albert Brisbane, whose Social Destiny of Man explained Fourierism and its self-sufficient associations or
“phalanxes”. One or more of these phalanxes was organized in very Northern state. The most famous were
Red Bank, New Jersey, and Brook Farm, Massachusetts. An early member of the latter was the author
Nathaniel Hawthorne. Noyes founded the most enduring and probably the oddest of the utopian
communities, the Oneida Community of upstate New York. Needless to say, none of these experiments had
any lasting effects on the patterns of American society.
26. The main topic of the passage is________
A. nineteen-century schools. B. American reformers
C. the philosophy of Fourierism D. model communities in the nineteenth.
27. Which of the following is not given in the passage as one of the general goals of communitarian
philosophers?
A. To remake society
B. To spread their ideas throughout the United State
 C. To establish ideal communities
D. To create opportunities through education.
28. The Shakers are mentioned in paragraph 1 as an example of _______
A. a communal religious group B. radical reformers
C. rationalistic thinkers D. an influential group of writers.
29. Which of the following is closest in meaning to the word impetus in paragraph 1?
A. Stimulus B. commitment C. Drawback D. Foundation.
30. The “phalanxes” described in paragraph 2 were an idea originally conceived by _______
A. Albert Brisbane B. Robert Owen
C. Charles Fourier D. John Humphrey Noyes
31. Why does the author mention Nathaniel Hawthorne in paragraph two?
A. He founded Brook Farm in Massachusetts.
B. He was a critic of Charles Fourier.
C. He wrote a book that led to the establishment of model communities.
D. He was at one time a member of the Brook Farm community.
32. Which of the following communities lasted longest?
A. New Harmony B. The Oneida Community C. Red Bank D. Brook Farm
33. The word oddest in paragraph 2 is closest meaning to which of the following?
A. Earliest B. Most independent C. Largest D. Most unusual
34. The author implies that, for readers, the conclusion of the paragraph is ________
A. obvious B. surprising C. absurd D. practical
35. Why did the author probably divide the passage into two paragraphs?
A. To compare nineteenth-century reforms with twentieth-century reforms.
B. To present an overview of a concept in the first paragraph and specific examples in the second.
C. To contrast the work of utopian thinkers with that of practical reforms.
D. To give the causes for a phenomenon in the first paragraph and its consequences in the second

Part 4: You are going to read a magazine article in which people talk about their favourite London
theatres. For questions 36 – 50, choose from the theatres (A-E) The theatres may be chosen more than
once. When more than one answer is required, these may be given in any order.(15p)

London Theatreland
A. The Lyceum Theatre
David Bateman is a huge fan of this theatre. “You cannot find a theatre with a more varied past,” he argues.
So is he right ? Well, initially a venue for musicals, the Lyceum soon began to host a variety of different
events, such as the very first Madam Tussard’s exhibition in 1802. After this came many successful
theatrical productions but it wasn’t long before there were more changes and the theatre was used a music
hall before once again becoming a theatre. And it was during this period, in 1934, that Queen Elizabeth II
saw her very first pantomime here! Today it is the proud home of the stage musical version of the massively
successful Disney animation The lion King.

B. The Savoy Theatre

The Savoy Theatre is built in a style called “Art Deco”, which is what first caught the attention of Mark
Ford. “It is incredibly beautiful,” he explains, “and the first place in the world ever to be lit entirely by
electricity”
The Savoy was built specificially for performances of Gilbert and Sullivan operettas, but other performances
have also graced its stage over the years. Now it puts on Gilbert and Sullivan musical productions again. “It
was recently bought by the Savoy Hotel, which added another storey to the top of the building”, says Mark.
“So now it has a health club and even a swimming pool, which I think is absolutely wonderful !”

C. The London Palladium

Felix Knight would be surprised if you hadn’t heard of this very famous theatre in the West End. “It’s very
dear to me”, says Felix, who has fond memories of the Palladium.
In the 1950s Felix, along with millions of other viewers across Britain, would watch Saturday Night at the
Palladium, a weekly variety show televised live from the theatre. Stars from all over the world appeared on
the show, including Felix’s idol, Frank Sinatra. “I was so familiar with the Palladium, but I had never
actually been there!” laughs Felix
Nowadays, the theatre hosts musicals, currently The Sound of Music, but it also maintains its glamorous
image, hosting a number of important events such as the British film awards in 2007

D. The Globe Theatre

“ People tend to overlook the Globe Theatre because it’s not in the West End, but this theatre is a jewel !”
says Jane Campbell.
The theatre is a replica of the Elizabethan playhouse that was built there in 1599 and where Shakespeare’s
plays were written and performed. Every last inch of the rebuilt Globe is authentic, even the fact that it is an
open-air theatre (so consider choosing a dry day to go there !). The only difference is that four hundred years
ago plays by different playwrights were performed there, whereas now the Globe is strictly for Shakespeare
only.
Jane has enjoyed many plays at the Globe, but also appreciates other respects of the theatre. “The theatre
hosts many interesting exhibitions. Plus, it’s only minutes away from other great attractions such as St Paul’s
Cathedral”.

E. The Piccadilly Theatre

For Mariella Clark, this theatre is her number one choice. Opened in 1928, it may not be the oldest theatre in
the West End, but it is one of the biggest and has definitely made its mark- during its time as a cinema it
actually showed the first talking movie ever! For a while it went back to functioning as a theatre again before
its reinvention as a cabaret venue, The London Casino. Now it’s a theatre once again.
“I’d always assumed that theatres put on plays or musicals from day one,” Mariella says, “so I was quite
surprised when I first began to realise that they often have quite interesing histories.”
 Which theatre(s) …..?
- is very convenient for sightseeing? 36………
- have help make history? 37………… 38……… 39………
- recently acquired a new owner ? 40……….
- was the venue of a first experience for an 41…………
important person?

shows and events on stage?
- at one time made it possible for its performances 44……………
