For questions 1-15, read the passages (A - F) about holiday courses in different languages. Some of the languages may be chosen more than once (in any order).
REST & LEARN
French | A |
If you want to combine a little tuition with a self-catering holiday, you could stay at a gite in Provence with lessons nearby. From near-beginners to advanced. The emphasis is on conversation and topical French. Teenagers can study French and learn to windsurf at Montpellier on the Mediterranean. The three-week summer trip includes 12 hours of lessons per week, with an optional 15 hours of windsurfing for an extra 105 pounds. Pupils must be able to swim. In Switzerland, you can learn French in Lausanne and ski at a nearby resort. Courses are from 2-13 weeks.
‘Headwater Holidays’ has seven nights of language lessons and Nordic skiing in the village of Artemare in the Bugey region of France. The emphasis here is on skiing, with French lessons as an option. For a real taste of the French countryside, teenagers can stay on a farm in Perigord near Armagnac. There are no formal lessons so you must have a reasonable grounding in the language, and your hosts encourage you to help out on the farm. The three-week trip is open to 15-20-year-olds. You can soak up some sunshine between lessons at Arachon, north of Bordeaux, with optional coaching in tennis and sailing. Age range from 14-18. Summer courses are also available at Toulouse university.
Italian | B |
Exercise both mind and body on a cycling-and-studying trip based at Cagli in the Marche region of Italy. The two-week course includes language lessons in the mornings and 10 bike routes, graded for difficulty, in the surrounding countryside. Accommodation is in shared self-catering apartments. In Florence, you can study Italian and can take optional courses in Tuscan cookery or art history. At Siena, you can attend your lessons in a 17th century palace, or combine language tuition with courses in cinema, music or Italian politics.
Spanish | C |
The most intensive option is to live and study in the home of a qualified teacher. You can do this in Seville where your host will give you 20 lessons per week, all in the mornings, and arrange weekend excursions. The minimum stay is a week. There are also courses for retired people in Malaga during spring, autumn and winter. In Latin America tuition fees tend to be cheaper. One of the best places to learn is Antigua, capital of Guatemala and one of the most beautiful towns in Central America. Antigua sits in the shadows of two volcanoes, has a temperate climate, and is just 45 minutes by bus from the airport.
German | D |
Youngsters who do not mind early mornings can stay with a German family in Frankfurt or Berlin. However, the company warns that offices and schools often open for business at 7am, so late nights should be avoided. If you don’t trust your little angels to behave, you can pack them off to Vienna, where they will be supervised for 24 hours a day, given 20 German lessons a week and have opportunities for riding and tennis.
Japanese | E |
You can study Japanese in the historic town of Kanazawa, 200 km north of Tokyo. The package includes excursions to gardens and samurai houses. Minimum age 18.
Portuguese | F |
There are Portuguese courses at Lisbon, Faro, and Oporto on the Costa Verde, with options including business, computing and law.

Task 1.
For questions 1-10, fill in the gaps in the text choosing only ONE appropriate word from the box below.
Tramps
(бродяги)
It has been said that (1) ___ lives by selling something - teachers live by selling knowledge, philosophers by selling wisdom. Though it may be possible to measure the value of material goods in terms of money it is difficult to estimate the true value of the services which people perform for us. There are times when we would (2) ___ give everything we possess to save our lives, yet we might grudge paying a surgeon a high fee for offering us quality service. The conditions of society are such that (3) ___ are to be paid for. Everyone has something to sell. Tramps seem to be the (4) ___ exception to this rule. Beggars almost sell (5) ___ as human beings to arouse the pity of passers-by. But real tramps are not beggars. A tramp may ask you for money but he will never ask you to feel sorry for him. He is free from the thousands of anxieties which other people can experience. | 1

His (6) ___ material possessions make it possible for him to move from place to place with ease. By (7) ___ to sleep in the open, he gets (8) ___ closer to the world of nature than most of us do. He may steal occasionally; he may even in times of real need do (9) ___ work; but he will never sacrifice his freedom.

Task 2.
For questions 11-24, read the text below and look carefully at each line. If the line is correct, put a tick (v).
If the line has a word which should not be there, write it down.
OPINIONS DIFFER
A musician friend of mine once went on an English course during his summer | 11 | |
holidays. What he really wanted to do was to improve with his ability to think | 12 | |
and react quickly and correctly in spoken English. He said speaking in a foreign | 13 | |
language always made him nervous, even if after three years of study. | 14 | |
It turned out so that one of the teachers on the course had very strong views on | 15 | |
music, and was not afraid to express them in class. He claimed that music it | 16 | |
was a drug, just like alcohol, and people who could not live through their lives | 17 | |
without it were to be pitied. You can imagine that my friend was not pleasantly | 18 | |
impressed. In the end, he has lost his temper and spent most of the remaining | 19 | |
lessons for arguing about music and its role in people’s lives. When his course | 20 | |
finished, he came home being still angry about the experience. However, whether | 21 | |
he enjoyed the course or did not, my friend had to admit that the teacher’s | 22 | |
technique had worked since his nervousness in English had been completely | 23 | |
disappeared and he was speaking far more fluently than before. | 24 |
Task 3.
For questions 25 - 30, read the sentences and form new ones with a similar meaning.
Do not change the word given.
25. Paul insisted on his friends’ singing in chorus.
MADE
Paul ……………………………………………………………………………….. in chorus.
26. Pamela enjoys playing the violin more than Helen.
AS.
Helen doesn’t enjoy ……………………………………………………………….…. Pamela.
27. I’m sorry we can’t invite Mark to the party.
WISH
I ………………………………………………………………………….…. Mark to the party.
28. The father let Victor tell the truth.
WAS
Victor…………………………………………………………………………….…. his father.
29. I’m trying to find someone with experience of looking after children.
USED
I’m trying to find someone ……………………………………………………..after children.
30. If Sara is not busy tomorrow she can help us in the garden.
