Task 1. Read the texts below. Match choices (A-H) to (1-5). There are three choices you do not need to use.

1   [A, B, C, D, E, F, G, H] In the earliest days of computers, the only computer education was about computers. We, and computers, have come a long way since those days. Now computers have invaded every aspect of modern life. Education is no exception. Students can use word processors for writing, spreadsheets for mathematics and science, and databases for organizing information. Lately, the Internet has become a recognized way of getting information.

2   [A, B, C, D, E, F, G, H]There are many advantages to distance learning. For homeschoolers, it's a great way to safely get a head start on college before completing high school. In addition, many students don't have the ability to leave home for maybe family or work obligations. Another huge advantage is the cost savings. Through distance learning, you avoid room and board fees that will have to be paid by a traditional student.

3   [A, B, C, D, E, F, G, H] In Great Britain many children go to boarding schools. A good boarding school can be an excellent placement for an orphaned child, because everyone is treated equally and fairly there. Many parents with non-traditional careers or those undergoing difficult transition like divorce find boarding schools excellent alternatives. Boarding school can help children grow in independence, and friendships formed in boarding school often last a lifetime.

4   [A, B, C, D, E, F, G, H]Considered by many to be a diamond in the rough of the Parkside area, the school boasts a curriculum that encourages technological literacy. The 170 local 9^th grade students don't carry any books or pencils. The school supplies every student with their own laptop. They create multimedia presentations with Microsoft PowerPoint, receive assignments via e-mail, and conduct research online. So far, the unique programme has had positive results.

5   [A, B, C, D, E, F, G, H] Chorister’s schools are educational establishments which have a special emphasis on religious choir singing. These schools are usually attached to a cathedral, church or chapel, where the school choir sings. Choir schools do not exclusively educate choristers: about 15,000 pupils are taught at chorister schools in the UK, but only around 1,000 of those are choristers. Tony Blair, for example, attended The Chorister School but was not himself a chorister.

Task 3. Read the text below. Choose from (A-H) the one which best fits each space (1-6). There are two choices you do not need to use.

On the whole, Cambridge is much quieter than Oxford, although what really sets it apart from its scholarly rival is 'the Backs, providing exquisite views over the backs of the old colleges. At the front, the handsome facades of these same colleges dominate the layout of the town centre, lining up along the main streets. Most of the colleges date back to the late thirteenth and early fourteenth centuries. Many of the buildings are extraordinarily beautiful, but the most famous is King's College, (1)   [A, B, C, D, E, F, G, H] of late Gothic architecture.

There are thirty-one university colleges in total. Each one is an independent, self-governing body, proud of its achievements and attracting a close loyalty from its students, (2)   [A, B, C, D, E, F, G, H].

During the nineteenth century, the university finally lost its ancient privileges over the town, (3)   [A, B, C, D, E, F, G, H].

The university expanded too, with the number of students increasing dramatically. More recently, change has been much slower, (4)   [A, B, C, D, E, F, G, H]. The first two women's colleges were founded in the 1870s, but it was only in 1947 that women were actually awarded degrees. In the meantime, the city and university had been acquiring a reputation as a high-tech centre of excellence. Cambridge has always been in the vanguard of scientific research, (5)   [A, B, C, D, E, F, G, H].

Cambridge is an extremely compact place, and you can walk round the centre, visiting the most interesting colleges, in an afternoon. A more thorough exploration covering more of the colleges and a leisurely afternoon on a punt will, however, take at least a couple of days. If possible you should avoid coming in high summer, (6)   [A, B, C, D, E, F, G, H]. Faced with such crowds, the more popular colleges have restricted their opening times and have introduced admission charges.

A whose alumni have garnered no less than ninety Nobel prizes.

B amongst whom privately educated boys remain over-represented

C because of the development of industry

D whose magnificent chapel is one of the greatest statements

E which was expanding rapidly thanks to the arrival of the railway

F particularly when it comes to equality of sexes

G when the students are replaced by crowds of sightseers

H particularly when you watch the sporting events
