Part VIII You are going to read an extract from a writer's journal For Questions 1-8, choose the correct answer A, B, C or D.
(5)diary and of course I forgot all about it I don’t know if you’ve noticed this but time has a habit of speeding along faster than a police car chasing a robber and, before I knew it, the day was dawning
I arrived at the youth centre that morning feeling full of trepidation There was a gang of 12 helpers including me and each pair had been allocated a particular age group Mine was the 10 to 11 year olds Even with the planning meeting I had attended the week before, I worried about whether I was up to the task Why hadn’t I read through the copious lesson plans we were given beforehand? And wasn’t the average 10-year-old more interested in the latest Play Station game than making things with paper and glue?
All too quickly the children began arriving The look of relief on parents’ faces as they handed their offspring over to us was quite comical A handful of the children were already members of the club but the other forty five or so were from the local primary schools Again I asked myself why I had elected to spend a day with all these ‘little monsters’ especially when I have two all of my own to contend with!
I needn’t have worried of course as it turned out to be a marvelous day We watched entertaining DVD clips, learned ‘action’ songs, made clay pyramids, decorated biscuits, played memory games and spent some time in quiet reflection I say ‘we’ because I rediscovered my inner child and joined in all the activities
The particular highlight for me was the final rendition of “He’s got the whole world in his hands” in the closing part of the day The children knew the words and actions off by heart and sang so loudly it was almost enough to bring the roof down It’s difficult to explain those moments; only that the body tingles with the pleasure of having witnessed something so magical
Of course there were also moments of great poignancy I found it difficult to stop thinking of one little girl, who mentioned oh-so-casually that her mum was in hospital and would be there for a long time It’s easy for us adults to idealise childhood and forget that some children have their own burden of anxieties and concerns When I got home utterly exhausted, still with modelling clay under my fingernails, I reflected on what a privilege it had been
There was one disappointment for the children and that was that the playscheme was only running for a day, and not the whole week As I said farewell to my group, one of the children turned and said “Can we it again in the next holiday, Miss?” My response was, “Sure, why not?”
1 When the offer of the job was made the writer
A felt she had made a mistake to agree B thought she had appropriate experience for the job
C believed she shouldn't have been asked D gave the impression she wasn't sure about accepting the job When the day arrived the writer was surprised _
A that the day had come round so quickly B because she witnessed a car chase on the way C because she'd forgotten to write down the date D that she woke up at dawn
3 When the writer arrived to start her job she A put the children into pairs
B realised she should have done more preparation C felt confident she could deal with 10 and 11 year olds
D saw the children had brought their own electronic games to play with According to the writer, the parents were
A happy to stay with their children all day B glad to leave their children
C worried about children from the other schools D nervous that their children might not behave themselves The writer needn't have worried because
A the children were quiet during the day B the children weren't doing messy activities
C she had fun herself D the time passed quickly
6 The writer's best moment
A occurred in the middle of the day B took her by surprise
C was hard to put into words D was when the day was over According to the writer, adults _
A think that being a child is a privilege B are usually exhausted by bringing up their children C don't have a stressful life D sometimes forget that children have worries too What is the writer's attitude by the end of the day?
