    • At a travel agent's

    • At a music school

    • At a restaurant

    Correct Answer
    A. At a music school
    Explanation
    The given answer "At a music school" is correct because the statement "Lessons start again on the 8th January" indicates that the establishment mentioned is related to education or learning. Since the other options, a travel agent's and a restaurant, do not involve lessons or education, the most suitable option is a music school where lessons are likely to be offered.

    • Outside a theatre

    • Outside a supermarket

    • Outside a restaurant

    Correct Answer
    A. Outside a theatre
    Explanation
    The correct answer is outside a theatre because the statement mentions that the "AFTERNOON SHOW BEGINS AT 2PM." This implies that there is a show happening in the afternoon, which is typically associated with theatres. The other options, outside a supermarket and outside a restaurant, do not provide any information about a show starting at 2PM.

    • In a taxi

    Correct Answer
    A. In a hotel
    Explanation
    This statement is most likely found in a hotel because it mentions leaving a room key at reception. In a shop or a taxi, customers do not typically have room keys, so it is unlikely that this statement would be applicable in those contexts.

    • Behind

    • Over

    Correct Answer
    A. Over
    Explanation
    Alice Guy Blaché was the first female film director and she played a significant role in the early days of cinema.

However, when Hollywood became the center of the film industry, the independent New York film companies, including Alice's own company, started to decline. Eventually, Alice's name was forgotten and hardly anybody remembered her contributions to the film industry. Therefore, the word "over" best fits the space in the sentence as it implies the end or decline of something.
