IV Reading
John Fisher, a builder, and his wife Elizabeth wanted more living space, so they left their small flat for an old 40-metre-high castle tower They have spent five years turning it into a beautiful home with six floors, winning three architectural prizes
‘I love the space, and being private,' Elizabeth says 'You feel separated from the world If I'm in the kitchen, which is 25 metres above the ground floor, and the doorbell rings, I don't have to answer it because visitors can't see I'm in!'
'There are 142 steps to the top, so I go up and down five or six times a day, it's very good exercise! But having to carry heavy things to the top is terrible, so I never buy two bags of shopping from the supermarket at a time Apart from that, it's a brilliant place to live.'
'When we first saw the place, I asked my father's advice about buying it, because we couldn't decide After paying for it, we were a bit worried because it looked awful But we really loved it, and knew how we wanted it to look.'
'Living here can be difficult - yesterday I climbed a four-metre ladder to clean the windows But when you stand on the roof you can see all the way out to sea on a clear day, and that's a wonderful experience I'm really glad we moved.'

Most young couples have meals regularly in their parents’ home with little or no pay, and give their children to the care of old couple free of charge Investigations have shown that parents of many couples don’t mind providing meals and caring for their children However, this practice shouldn’t become an accepted social custom
The old couples’ expense on food has already increased while young couples spend more on clothing and furnishing and less on food If this trend continues, many young couples might take these privileges for granted and become more dependent
It is not the right for young peoples to make the use of the old couples’ love, not only because our nation is well – known for its special respect paid to the elderly , but also because the young must become independent What young people should is to become more considerate towards their old parents
After years of hard work, they are worthy of such consideration 31 Most married young couples _
A live in with their parents
B have meals regularly in their parents’ home for they have little or no fee
C have not become independent completely D pay no respect to the elderly
32 The writer thinks it is for old couples to provide meals or care for their married children

A What troubles young people most is that no one will look after their children except their own parents
B The reason why young couples depend on their parents to different degree is that their home is smaller

Read the two passages carefully and choose the correct answer
Many people believe that watching television has resulted in lower reading standards in schools However, the link between television and printed books is not as simple as that In many cases, television actually encourages people to read: for example, when a book is turned into a TV series, its sales often go up
One study of this link examined six-year-old children who were viewing a special series of 15-minute programs at school The series was designed to encourage love of books, as well as to develop the basic mechanical skills of reading Each program is an animated film of a children’s book The story is read aloud and certain key phrases from the book appear on the screen, beneath the picture Whenever a word is read, it is also highlighted on the TV screen
One finding was that watching these programs was very important to the children If anything prevented them from seeing a program, they were very disappointed What’s more, they wanted to read the books which the different parts of the series were based on
The programs also gave the children more confidence when looking at these books As a result of their familiarity with the stories, they would sit in pairs and read the stories aloud to each other On each occasion, the children showed great sympathy when discussing a character in a book because they themselves had been moved when watching the character on television
46 What is the main idea of the hook?
A The simple link between television and books B The influence of television on reading books
C The advantage of books over television D The ways of children reading books and watching TV
47 When does television encourage people to read?
A When there are no interesting programs on TV B When children are watching an animated film on TV
C When a book is made into a TV series D When a book appears on the screen 48 How did children feel when viewing a special series of 15-minute program at school?
A They felt excited B They felt bored C They felt disappointed D They felt confident 49 What kind of film is each program?
A A story film of a children’s book B A documentary film of children’s life C An educational film D An animated film of a children’s book 50 What advantage did children have from this program?
A They read books with more interest and confidence B They became more sympathetic
C They made more friends D They became more interested in watching TV
