A Dale - Breadmaker I can’t remember how many times our breadmaker has been used since Mum got it at Christmas, but it’s a lot. I was a bit worried because I read in a magazine that breadmakers are one of those gadgets that people are often given as presents, but then they never use them. I don’t know why that is because it looks really easy to use. You just put all the ingredients in, press a button, and a couple of hours later you have a fresh loaf of bread. It beeps once when it’s ready! I love waking up to the smell of fresh bread each morning and Mum says she’ll never buy a loaf of bread again, so I think it was a really successful present. Which gadget does the writer say ...

Sample Question
When another old cave is discovered in the south of France, it is not usually news. Rather, it is an ordinary event. Such discoveries are so frequent these days that hardly anybody pays heed to them. However, when the Lascaux cave complex was discovered in 1940, the world was amazed. Painted directly on its walls were hundreds of scenes showing how people lived thousands of years ago. The scenes show people hunting animals, such as bison or wild cats. Other images depict birds and, most noticeably, horses, which appear in more than 300 wall images, by far outnumbering all other animals. Early artists drawing these animals accomplished a monumental and difficult task. They did not limit themselves to the easily accessible walls but carried their painting materials to spaces that required climbing steep walls or crawling into narrow passages in the Lascaux complex. Unfortunately, the paintings have been exposed to the destructive action of water and temperature changes, which easily wear the images away. Because the Lascaux caves have many entrances, air movement has also damaged the images inside. Although they are not out in the open air, where natural light would have destroyed them long ago, many of the images have deteriorated and are barely recognizable. To prevent further damage, the site was closed to tourists in 1963, 23 years after it was discovered. .. Q1) Which title best summarizes the main idea of the passage?

Wild Animals in Art

Hidden Prehistoric Paintings

Exploring Caves Respectfully

Determining the Age of French Caves

The family you choose yourself Recently, I heard my sister say, ‘Friends are the family you choose yourself.’ __________ Since she said it, I’ve seen it written on T-shirts, notebooks and pencil cases.

Sometimes we even celebrate special occasions like birthdays with them instead of our families.

When families started to live in different cities and even countries, friends became more important.

I hadn’t heard people say that before, but it’s a very common phrase.

The last type was the ‘soul mate’.

If you want to learn a language, you can find people in different countries to practise with.

Nowadays, we have bigger circles of friends but they are the same types that the Ancient Greeks talked about.
