You are going to read an article about a London tour guide. For questions 1-8, choose the answer
(A, B, C or D) which you think fits best according to the text.
Mark your answers on the separate answer sheet.
The best kind of know-it-all
There is an art to being a good tour guide and Martin Priestly knows what it is.
It’s obvious that the best way to explore a city
is with a friend who is courteous, humorous,
intelligent and – this is essential – extremely
well-informed. Failing that, and if it is London you
are visiting, then the next best thing may well be
Martin Priestly, former university lecturer, now a
guide, who seems to bring together most of the
necessary virtues and who will probably become
a friend as well.
Last spring, I took a trip around London with
him, along with a party of Indian journalists.
Accustomed to guides who are occasionally
excellent but who often turn out to be arrogant,
repetitive and sometimes bossy, I was so struck
by Priestly’s performance that I sought him out
again to see, if I could, just how the trick was done.
This time the tour was for a party of foreign
students, aged anything between 20 and 60, who
were here to improve their English, which was
already more than passable. As the ‘tourists’

gathered, Martin welcomed them with a kind of
dazzled pleasure, as if he had been waiting for
them with excitement and a touch of anxiety, now
thankfully relieved. I have to say, all this seemed
absolutely genuine.
Then we got on the coach and we were off. Martin
sat in front, not in the low-level guide’s seat,
but up with the group, constantly turning round
to make eye contact, to see if they understood
him. Soon we’re in a place called Bloomsbury,
famous among writers in the early 20th century.
‘Bloomsbury is famous for brains,’ says Martin,
getting into his stride. ‘It’s a very clever place.
It’s not very fashionable but it’s
very clever.’ Soon
after, we pass the British Museum and Bedford
Square, ‘a great architectural showpiece’, advises
Martin. The comment prompted questions which
led to a conversation about building, the part
played by wealthy people and how big chunks of
London still belonged to them – an issue which
was to re-emerge later. This was how he liked to
work: themes, introduced as if spontaneously,
were laid down for subsequent discussion.
Suddenly the coach stopped and it was over, two
and a half hours of non-stop performance, with
information, observation and humour. Martin
says encouragingly, ‘I do hope you enjoy London.’
We go to a nearby cafe to talk. Why, I asked, had
he become a guide? ‘Well, I used to organise a lot

of courses at the university I worked for. It was line 50
quite stressful. But I had shown students around
London and I enjoyed that. It seemed an obvious
move to make. I did the London Tourist Board’s
Blue Badge course – two evenings a week for
two years. That was tough, especially the exam
in what is known as “coaching”. You’re taught to
smile but everybody had difficulty with that in
the exam, when you have other things to worry
about. You have to do it backwards in the coach,
desperately casting your eyes about to see what is
coming next, and you’re facing the tutors and the
other trainees.
‘And you have to know so much to guide well,
different places, all kinds of architecture,
agriculture. What if somebody asks a question
about a crop beside the road? But some of it line 66
sticks, you know. .. eventually.’ He also tells me
he keeps himself up to date with radio, TV and
newspapers.
There are several hundred other guides out there,
all looking for a share of the work. I think, as we
talk, that I am starting to understand why good
guides are so rare. It’s a great deal harder than it
looks, and it demands, for every stretch of road,
an even longer stretch of study and forethought.

Test 1
You are going to read an article about a cookery course for children. Seven sentences have been
removed from the article. Choose from the sentences A-H the one which fits each gap (9-15).
There is one extra sentence which you do not need to use.
Mark your answers on the separate answer sheet.
Part 2
The little chefs
Hilary Rose travels to Dorset, in the south of England, to investigate a
cookery course for children.
There must be something in the air in Dorset,
because the last place you’d expect to find children
during the summer holidays is in the kitchen. Yet
in a farmhouse, deep in the English countryside,
that’s exactly where they are – on a cookery course
designed especially for children.
It’s all the idea of Anna Wilson, who wants to
educate young children about cooking and eating
in a healthy way. ‘I’m very keen to plant the idea in
their heads that food doesn’t grow on supermarket
shelves,’ she explains. The course is all about
making food fun and enjoyable.’ She thinks that

eight is the perfect age to start teaching children to
cook, because at that age they are always hungry.
These children are certainly all smiles as they
arrive at the country farmhouse. Three girls and
four boys aged from ten to thirteen make up the
group. They are immediately given a tour of what
will be ‘home’ for the next 48 hours. ~
But one thing is quite clear – they all have a
genuine interest in food and learning how to cook.
Anna has worked as a chef in all sorts of situations
and has even cooked for the crew of a racing yacht,
in limited space and difficult weather conditions.
‘Kids are easy to teach,’ she insists,
‘because they’re naturally curious and if you treat
them like adults they listen to you.’
Back in the kitchen, Anna is giving the introductory
talk, including advice on keeping hands clean,
and being careful around hot ovens. 12
Judging by the eager looks on their young faces as
they watch Anna’s demonstration, they are just
keen to start cooking.
The children learn the simplest way, by watching
and then doing it themselves. They gather round
as Anna chops an onion for the first evening
meal. Then the boys compete with each other
to chop their onions as fast as possible, while
the girls work carefully, concentrating on being
When they learn to make
neat.
bread, the girls knead the dough with their hands

competently, while the boys punch it into the
board, cheerfully hitting the table with their fists.
The following morning, four boys with dark
shadows under their eyes stumble into the
kitchen at 8.30 a.m. to learn how to make breakfast
(sausages and eggs, and fruit drinks made with
yoghurt and honey). We learn later that they didn’t
Ignoring

this, Anna brightly continues trying to persuade
everyone that fruit drinks are just as interesting as
sausages and eggs.
Anna has great plans for the courses and is
reluctant to lower her standards in any way, even
though her students are so young.
‘And I like to keep the course fees down,’ Anna
adds, ‘because if the children enjoy it and go on to
teach their own children to cook, I feel it’s worth
it.’ If this course doesn’t inspire them to cook,
nothing will.
10
Paper 1 Reading
A This is followed by a session on ‘knife
skills’, which will be important later on.
B She always uses top-quality ingredients,
such as the best cuts of meat and the
finest cheeses, so there’s clearly no profit
motive in this operation.
C As they wander round, they argue light-
heartedly about who has had the most

experience in the kitchen.
D In the garden, they learn about the herbs
that they will use in their cooking.
E Their obvious tiredness may explain
why one of them goes about the task so
carelessly that the ingredients end up on
the floor.
F This is particularly true of young boys,
who are happy to do anything that will
end in a meal.
G As a result, she has a very relaxed attitude
to cooking, constantly encouraging the
children and never talking down to them.
H This contrast will become something of a
theme during the course.

Paper 1 Reading
A short cut to Hollywood
We meet the most successful young makers of short films in Britain. These short films
usually last no more than ten minutes and are often shown before the main films in cinemas.
g p a S W ^ r a n d Nicky T
^ M o ^ l& k e Please
Anyone who saw T ogether, the surprise arthouse
hit, will have been as charmed by Jum ping
G erald, the short film which ran before it, as
they were by the main feature film itself. Yet
Gerald’s creators faced financial difficulties
from the start, and the final version wasn’t
even finished until the eve of its first screening.
As they sat in the cinema watching it for the
first time, it dawned on Teller and O’Brien
just what they had achieved. ‘The way people

were laughing,’ Teller remembers, ‘we knew we
were on to a good thing.’ Jum ping G erald was
nominated for Best Short Film at the British Film
Festival; although it missed out on the award, it
was thought by many to have deserved it. The
two men are presently involved in their second
production. ‘We make a good team,’ Teller says,
‘and we’ll continue to work as one. Unless, of
course, one of us gets an offer he can’t refuse.’
Tim and Mark Collins first fell in love with the
art of film-making when they were young boys.
Their father was often abroad on business, and
his two sons would send him video diaries to
inform him of the goings-on at home. Several
years later, their first short film was lucky ever
to get made. At the time, Tim was writing a
novel between takes, and Mark was preparing
to get married. Oh Jo s ep h in e! was made with a
cast of hundreds for just £500, but it went on
to win several video awards nevertheless. The
film really began to get the brothers noticed,
and several others followed, all exceptionally
well received. The brothers now feel ready to
move into full-length feature films, and are busy
writing a screenplay. The only disadvantage of
having had such a perfect start to their careers
is the weight of expectations: they have to keep
coming up with the goods.
Radley and Tomlinson’s very first short
film, M ore C ake P lea se, was nominated for a

prestigious award at the Cannes Film Festival.
Tomlinson says, ‘We couldn’t believe it when
we found ourselves on a red carpet at Cannes.
No one knew who on earth we were, but that
couldn’t have mattered less.’ Although More
C ake P lease didn’t win, Radley and Tomlinson
were sufficiently encouraged by the nominations
to enter the film into Channel Four’s short
film competition at the British Film Festival.
To their surprise it won, and their film-making
career began to look even better with Channel
Four’s promise to fund their next project. The
duo had chosen university courses – in media
and drama – with a film-making future in mind
but, disenchanted with the theoretical rather
than practical experience of the industry that
was provided, both men left university before
completing their courses and went to work for
production companies in London. They place
enormous value on the hands-on experience
that their work on film sets provided them with.
‘We’ve seen so many directors get it wrong, that
we kind of know how to get it right,’ says Radley.
Hiroko Katsue and Mica Stevlovsky
ne ‘ A ‘ i •_ : ■ ,s£i.
Katsue and Stevlovsky speak fondly of the
days when every feature film at the cinema
was preceded by a short film. Katsue and
Stevlovsky’s short-film-making debut,
The Big

One, was rather unusual, as it became the
cinema advertisement for B ig Issue magazine.
It won award after award. ‘Winning a festival
is great in that it raises your profile, but it
doesn’t mean you can rest on your laurels,’
says Stevlovsky. ‘Right, you can’t just expect
things to happen for you,’ echoes Katsue. ‘You
could spend years going around festivals with
the same old film, but we’re not into that. We’re
always looking for different sorts of projects,
never standing still. Even when we’re lying
on a beach on holiday, we both have ideas
churning around in our heads.’

Test 1
Paper 5 SPEAKING (14 minutes)
You take the Speaking test with another candidate (possibly two candidates), referred to here as
your partner. There are two examiners. One will speak to you and your partner and the other will
be listening. Both examiners will award marks.
Part 1 (3 minutes)
The examiner asks you and your partner questions about yourselves. You may be asked about
things like ‘your home town’, ‘your interests’, ‘your career plans’, etc.
Part 2 (a one-minute ‘long turn’ for each candidate, plus 20-second response from the
second candidate)
The examiner gives you two photographs and asks you to talk about them for one minute. The
examiner then asks your partner a question about your photographs and your partner responds
briefly.
Then the examiner gives your partner two different photographs. Your partner talks about these
photographs for one minute. This time the examiner asks you a question about your partner’s
photographs and you respond briefly.
Part 3 (approximately 3 minutes)
The examiner asks you and your partner to talk together. You may be asked to solve a problem
or try to come to a decision about something. For example, you might be asked to decide the
best way to use some rooms in a language school. The examiner gives you a picture to help you
but does not join in the conversation.
Part 4 (approximately 4 minutes)
The examiner asks some further questions, which leads to a more general discussion of what
you have talked about in Part 3. You may comment on your partner’s answers if you wish.

For questions 1-8, choose the answer ( A, B, C or D ) which you think fits best according to the text. Mark your answers on the separate answer sheet. The best kind of know-it-allThere is an art to being a good tour guide and Martin Priestly knows what it is. It’s obvious that the best way to explore a cityis with a friend who is courteous, humorous, intelligent and – this is essential – extremelywell-informed. Failing that, and if it is London youare visiting, then the next best thing may well beMartin Priestly, former university lecturer, now aguide, who seems to bring together most of thenecessary virtues and who will probably becomea friend as well. Last spring, I took a trip around London withhim, along with a party of Indian journalists. Accustomed to guides who are occasionallyexcellent but who often turn out to be arrogant, repetitive and sometimes bossy, I was so struckby Priestly’s performance that I sought him outagain to see, if I could, just how the trick was done. This time the tour was for a party of foreignstudents, aged anything between 20 and 60, whowere here to improve their English, which wasalready more than passable. As the ‘ tourists’gathered, Martin welcomed them with a kind ofdazzled pleasure, as if he had been waiting forthem with excitement and a touch of anxiety, nowthankfully relieved. I have to say, all this seemedabsolutely genuine. Then we got on the coach and we were off. Martinsat in front, not in the low-level guide’s seat, but up with the group, constantly turning roundto make eye contact, to see if they understoodhim. Soon we’re in a place called Bloomsbury, famous among writers in the early 20 th century. ‘ Bloomsbury is famous for brains, ’ says Martin, getting into his stride. ‘ It’s a very clever place. It’s not very fashionable but it’svery clever. ’ Soonafter, we pass the British Museum and BedfordSquare, ‘ a great architectural showpiece ’, advisesMartin. The comment prompted questions whichled to a conversation about building, the partplayed by wealthy people and how big chunks ofLondon still belonged to them – an issue whichwas to re-emerge later. This was how he liked towork : themes, introduced as if spontaneously, were laid down for subsequent discussion. Suddenly the coach stopped and it was over, twoand a half hours of non-stop performance, withinformation, observation and humour. Martinsays encouragingly, ‘ I do hope you enjoy London. ’ We go to a nearby cafe to talk. Why, I asked, hadhe become a guide ? ‘ Well, I used to organise a lotof courses at the university I worked for. It was line 50 quite stressful. But I had shown students aroundLondon and I enjoyed that. It seemed an obviousmove to make. I did the London Tourist Board’sBlue Badge course – two evenings a week fortwo years. That was tough, especially the examin what is known as “ coaching ”. You’re taught tosmile but everybody had difficulty with that inthe exam, when you have other things to worryabout. You have to do it backwards in the coach, desperately casting your eyes about to see what iscoming next, and you’re facing the tutors and theother trainees. ‘ And you have to know so much to guide well, different places, all kinds of architecture, agriculture. What if somebody asks a questionabout a crop beside the road ? But some of it line 66 sticks, you know. .. eventually. ’ He also tells mehe keeps himself up to date with radio, TV andnewspapers. There are several hundred other guides out there, all looking for a share of the work. I think, as wetalk, that I am starting to understand why goodguides are so rare. It’s a great khuyến mãi harder than itlooks, and it demands, for every stretch of road, an even longer stretch of study and forethought. Paper 1 ReadingWhat do we learn about Martin in the first paragraph ? A He has two educational roles. B He is a colleague of the writer. C His job is an extension of his hobby. D His job suits his personality. The writer decided to meet Martin again to find out how he managed toA win custom from other tour guides. B entertain large and varied tour groups. C avoid the failings of many other tour guides. D encourage people to go back to him for another tour. The writer notes that on meeting the tour group, MartinA greeted everyone warmly. B seemed as nervous as everyone else. C praised everyone for their prompt arrival. D checked that everyone could understand him. Martin’s approach to guiding is toA begin with the oldest buildings. B encourage tourist participation. C move around the coach as he talks. D find out how much visitors know first. What does ‘ It ’ in line 50 refer to ? A showing students around LondonB performing in front of a groupC becoming a guideD arranging coursesMartin says that the ‘ coaching ’ exam is difficult becauseA there is so much to think about. B you have to smile in different ways. C it has so many sections. D you have to cover different routes. In lines 66-67, what does ‘ some of it sticks ’ mean ? A Some facts are up to date. B Some information is remembered. C Some questions are answered. D Some lessons are revised. In the last paragraph, the writer says he is impressed byA the distances Martin covers on his tours. B the quantity of work available for tour guides. C the amount of preparation involved in Martin’s job. 0 the variety of approaches taken to guiding. Test 1Y ou are going to read an article about a cookery course for children. Seven sentences have beenremoved from the article. Choose from the sentences A-H the one which fits each gap ( 9-15 ). There is one extra sentence which you do not need to use. Mark your answers on the separate answer sheet. Part 2T he little chefsHilary Rose travels to Dorset, in the south of England, to investigate acookery course for children. There must be something in the air in Dorset, because the last place you’d expect to find childrenduring the summer holidays is in the kitchen. Yetin a farmhouse, deep in the English countryside, that’s exactly where they are – on a cookery coursedesigned especially for children. It’s all the idea of Anna Wilson, who wants toeducate young children about cooking and eatingin a healthy way. ‘ I’m very keen to plant the idea intheir heads that food doesn’t grow on supermarketshelves, ’ she explains. The course is all aboutmaking food fun and enjoyable. ’ She thinks thateight is the perfect age to start teaching children tocook, because at that age they are always hungry. Thes e children are certainly all smiles as theyarrive at the country farmhouse. Three girls andfour boys aged from ten to thirteen make up thegroup. They are immediately given a tour of whatwill be ‘ home ’ for the next 48 hours. ~ But one thing is quite clear – they all have agenuine interest in food and learning how to cook. Anna has worked as a chef in all sorts of situationsand has even cooked for the crew of a racing yacht, in limited space and difficult weather conditions. ‘ Kids are easy to teach, ’ she insists, ‘ because they’re naturally curious and if you treatthem like adults they listen to you. ’ Back in the kitchen, Anna is giving the introductorytalk, including advice on keeping hands clean, and being careful around hot ovens. 12J udging by the eager looks on their young faces asthey watch Anna’s demonstration, they are justkeen to start cooking. The children learn the simplest way, by watchingand then doing it themselves. They gather roundas Anna chops an onion for the first eveningmeal. Then the boys compete with each otherto chop their onions as fast as possible, whilethe girls work carefully, concentrating on beingWhen they learn to makeneat.bread, the girls knead the dough with their handscompetently, while the boys punch it into theboard, cheerfully hitting the table with their fists. The following morning, four boys with darkshadows under their eyes stumble into thekitchen at 8.30 a. m. to learn how to make breakfast ( sausages and eggs, and fruit drinks made withyoghurt and honey ). We learn later that they didn’tIgnoring 14 stop talking until 4.30 a.m.this, Anna brightly continues trying to persuadeeveryone that fruit drinks are just as interesting assausages and eggs. Anna has great plans for the courses and isreluctant to lower her standards in any way, eventhough her students are so young. ‘ And I like to keep the course fees down, ’ Annaadds, ‘ because if the children enjoy it and go on toteach their own children to cook, I feel it’s worthit. ’ If this course doesn’t inspire them to cook, nothing will. 10P aper 1 ReadingA This is followed by a session on ‘ knifeskills ’, which will be important later on. B She always uses top-quality ingredients, such as the best cuts of meat and thefinest cheeses, so there’s clearly no profitmotive in this operation. C As they wander round, they argue light-heartedly about who has had the mostexperience in the kitchen. D In the garden, they learn about the herbsthat they will use in their cooking. E Their obvious tiredness may explainwhy one of them goes about the task socarelessly that the ingredients end up onthe floor. F This is particularly true of young boys, who are happy to do anything that willend in a meal. G As a result, she has a very relaxed attitudeto cooking, constantly encouraging thechildren and never talking down to them. H This contrast will become something of atheme during the course. 11T est 1Y ou are going to read a ’ magazine article about people who make short films. For questions16-30, choose from the options ( A-D ). The options may be chosen more than once. Mark your answers on the separate answer sheet. Part 3W hich film-makersproduced a short film at a very busy time in their lives ? are realistic about their future together ? mention the need to keep on working hard at producing short films ? made early career decisions that would lead them towards film-making ? gained financial assistance after impressing an organisation in the film world ? like variety in their working lives ? have benefited from observing professional film-makers at work ? were not concerned by the fact that nobody recognised them ? suddenly realised the great potential of their film ? felt their studies were not providing them with what they wanted ? now have a reputation for excellence which can put pressure on them ? Which filmwas considered unlucky not to receive a prize ? was used for a different purpose from most short films ? has a lot of people acting in it ? was completed only at the very last minute ? 19M 293012P aper 1 ReadingA short cut to HollywoodWe meet the most successful young makers of short films in Britain. Thes e short filmsusually last no more than ten minutes and are often shown before the main films in cinemas. g p a S W ^ r a n d Nicky T ^ M o ^ l và k e PleaseAnyone who saw T ogether, the surprise arthousehit, will have been as charmed by Jum pingG erald, the short film which ran before it, asthey were by the main feature film itself. YetGerald’s creators faced financial difficultiesfrom the start, and the final version wasn’teven finished until the eve of its first screening. As they sat in the cinema watching it for thefirst time, it dawned on Teller and O’Brienjust what they had achieved. ‘ The way peoplewere laughing, ’ Teller remembers, ‘ we knew wewere on to a good thing. ’ Jum ping G erald wasnominated for Best Short Film at the British FilmFestival ; although it missed out on the award, itwas thought by many to have deserved it. Thetwo men are presently involved in their secondproduction. ‘ We make a good team, ’ Teller says, ‘ and we’ll continue to work as one. Unless, ofcourse, one of us gets an offer he can’t refuse. ’ Tim and Mark Collins first fell in love with theart of film-making when they were young boys. Their father was often abroad on business, andhis two sons would send him video diaries toinform him of the goings-on at home. Severalyears later, their first short film was lucky everto get made. At the time, Tim was writing anovel between takes, and Mark was preparingto get married. Oh Jo s ep h in e ! was made with acast of hundreds for just £ 500, but it went onto win several video awards nevertheless. Thefilm really began to get the brothers noticed, and several others followed, all exceptionallywell received. The brothers now feel ready tomove into full-length feature films, and are busywriting a screenplay. The only disadvantage ofhaving had such a perfect start to their careersis the weight of expectations : they have to keepcoming up with the goods. Radley and Tomlinson’s very first shortfilm, M ore C ake P. lea se, was nominated for aprestigious award at the Cannes Film Festival. Tomlinson says, ‘ We couldn’t believe it whenwe found ourselves on a red carpet at Cannes. No one knew who on earth we were, but thatcouldn’t have mattered less. ’ Although MoreC ake P lease didn’t win, Radley and Tomlinsonwere sufficiently encouraged by the nominationsto enter the film into Channel Four’s shortfilm competition at the British Film Festival. To their surprise it won, and their film-makingcareer began to look even better with ChannelFour’s promise to fund their next project. Theduo had chosen university courses – in mediaand drama – with a film-making future in mindbut, disenchanted with the theoretical ratherthan practical experience of the industry thatwas provided, both men left university beforecompleting their courses and went to work forproduction companies in London. They placeenormous value on the hands-on experiencethat their work on film sets provided them with. ‘ We’ve seen so many directors get it wrong, thatwe kind of know how to get it right, ’ says Radley. Hiroko Katsue and Mica Stevlovskyne ‘ A ‘ i • _ : ■, s £ i. Katsue and Stevlovsky speak fondly of thedays when every feature film at the cinemawas preceded by a short film. Katsue andStevlovsky’s short-film-making debut, The BigOne, was rather unusual, as it became thecinema advertisement for B ig Issue magazine. It won award after award. ‘ Winning a festivalis great in that it raises your profile, but itdoesn’t mean you can rest on your laurels, ’ says Stevlovsky. ‘ Right, you can’t just expectthings to happen for you, ’ echoes Katsue. ‘ Youcould spend years going around festivals withthe same old film, but we’re not into that. We’realways looking for different sorts of projects, never standing still. Even when we’re lyingon a beach on holiday, we both have ideaschurning around in our heads. ’ 13P artiYou must answer this question.
