The Entry test.
Task 1. Read the passage and put your questions on
the selected words and phrases.
“A” Level ambitions.
Ann goes to a state secondary school
in Oxford. She lives with her parents in a village called Witney near Oxford.
Her father drives her to school every morning on his way to work.
In England both primary and secondary schools start at
nine o’clock in the morning and continue until half past three in the
afternoon. Julia doesn’t go home for lunch because the school has its own
dining-room and so she can buy food and drinks at school.
At the moment Ann is studying for her
“A” level examinations. She has three “A” levels in History, Biology and
Chemistry at the end of the year. She is interested in horse riding
and on Saturday mornings she usually finds time to ride her horse. But Julia
doesn’t have much time for her favourite activity during the week because
she is under pressure to study at school.
Ann hopes to get good grades in her “A” levels so
that when she leaves school she can go to university. Julia is very ambitious.
She wants to be a doctor. She knows that it isn’t easy to study Medicine but
she is a good student and works hard.
