Today, more people than ever rare choosing to go under the knife in order to enhance tlleir appearance From cheek implants to liposuction, men and women of all ages are flocking to surgeons who promise they can forestall the ravages (27) time or make them look more beautiful .(28) subjects are as controversial as the escalating use of cosmetic surgery to reshape perfectly functioning body parts towards some subjective aesthetic ideal Many vehemently oppose the whole idea, denouncing it (29) an expression of society's worst impulses Others embrace it, citing its ablity to change lives No (30) what one's stance, it cannot be denied that cosmetic surgery (not to be confused with plastic surgery, the surgical speciality dedicated to repairing body defects (31) to birth disorders, trauma, burns and disease) is a story of continual expansion, increased consumer demand, and growing social acceptability What was once the province of celeblities and the rich has trickled down the

perfect marketing concept is its elusiveness .(32) when you have it, you're constantly at risk of losing it, or at least being jostled aside by someone with more of it Cosmetic surgery success is built on the powerful emotions of denial and envy, not just vanity It thrives on our refusal to accept the body we were (33) with, and our collective denial of aging It feeds our envy of those who embody nature's most powerful but fleeting charms: youth, strength and beauty [Source: CPE USE OF ENGLISH, Virginia Evans, 2013] Question 27:A by B of C in D at Question 28:A Few B Such C A lot D No

indicate the correct answer to each of the questions from 42 to 48 There are many different types of places to eat One important question is who uses different places and how often they go As sociologists we are initially very interested in the social and cultural characteristics of people who behave differently Such characteristics indicate the financial, social, practical and cultural forces systematically distributed across the population, which constrain or encourage people to engage in particular ways of eating out We asked respondents how often they ate out under different circumstances Excluding holidays and eating at the workplace, on average the respondents to the survey ate a main meal out on commercial premises about once every three weeks Twentyone per cent ate out at least once a week, a further forty-four per cent at least monthly and only seven per cent claimed never to eat out Mean frequency of eating at someone else's home was about the same, but a much larger proportion (twenty per cent) never did so Twenty per cent of respondents claimed never to eat in the home of other family members, and about onethird never at the home of friends Very regular eating out with either kin or friends was not very prevalent, but being a guest at a main meal in someone else's home is part of the life experience of a large majority of the population There is a strong positive association between being a guest of friends, guest of family and commercial eating out Opportunities to eat out are cumulative, particularly eating out commercially and with friends To be seen in the right places and in attractive company, or at least to let others know that we are familiar with the most exciting or rewarding of experiences, is part of a process of display and performance which contributes to reputation Early sociologists examining consumption were particularly interested in the claiming and attributing of status through exhibitions of a prestigious style of life They were particularly concerned with the ways in which individuals established reputations for refinement, superiority and distinction Consumption patterns reflected social standing, and particularly class position Eating out is a potential means for such display through the use and avoidance of different venues [Source: Objective CAE, Felicity O’Dell &…, Cambridge, 2010] Question 42:

Sarah is seventeen but she looks younger than her age and she also wears clothes with cartoon characters on them that make her look even younger, when people were asked to judge from her appearance how old she was, the general opinion was around thirteen! She admits herself that she hides behind scruffy, baggy outfits that are not really suitable for her age She hardly ever goes out with her friends and stays at home most evenings Her essential problem then, is that she feels worried about the fact that she is crowing up and by the responsibilities that come with being an adult Now, however, she realises that it’s time to look and behave her age Sarah’s makeover concentrates not only on her appearance but also on how she feels about herself and her life She has to make some hard decisions about what changes she wants to make and what goals she’s aiming at This process isn’t easy but with some advice and guidance, she’s able to it Hannah, a stylist, then helps Sarah to choose some sets of clothes that suit her age Together, they throw out most of the childish clothes she had! Now she likes her new image and she doesn’t hide behind her clothes any more Her friends think she’s quite a different person, both inside and out! Alex, also seventeen, is trying to find a job in the music industry but to this, he has to give the impression that he is serious-m inded and can hold down a responsible job Unfortunately, the clothes he wears and the way he speaks give a different picture Alex is a rapper and every other word he says is cheers’, ‘mate’ or cool’ - not the type of language you would normally use to an employer! Alex’s makeover consists mainly of choosing the right outfits for job interviews Hannah replaces his previous look with a more classic, formal style Alex also needs practice in how to communicate with people in formal situations so, as part of the makeover, he spends some time on the perfume counter of a large store Here he learns more about what employers look for when they interview young people for jobs Finally, in a class on interview techniques, Alex is taught how to prepare properly for an interview by doing research beforehand He is then interviewed for a place on a music production course at college and he gets in! He still dresses as he likes though - in his spare time - and still ‘raps’ with his mates! [Source: ACTIVATE! B1, Workbook, Pearson, 2012] Question 45: What was Sarah's main problem?
