Their parents were on a weekend trip with some friends in the brothers dads car. Tom was bored and wanted to have an adventure. He wanted Harry to drive their mums car to the city. Harry wasnt happy about it, but he was bored too, so in the end, he agreed. The boys arrived in the city centre and decided to go to the cinema first. Harry parked the car outside the cinema. They watched a great film. Then they were hungry. Harry was happier now, so he stopped at a caf, and they ordered a big pizza. After that, Harry wanted to go home, but Tom wanted to go to a night club. Harry wasnt sure, but again he agreed in the end. He parked the car carefully outside the biggest nightclub in town. Tom and harry stayed in the night club for a long time. It was very late when they walked back to the car. Then they noticed something terrible. There was a big dent in the back of the car. They hurried home, and waited until 6 am. Then they phoned a garage and explained the situation. A mechanic repaired the car and the boys parked it outside the house just in time. A few minutes later their parents returned home. The boys were too scared to say anything about the accident. But later that day, their mother checked the car. Hey, look at that car she shouted. The boys waited nervously. Their mother continued. I cant believe it. A van bumped into my car last Thursday, but now you cant even see the dent. 17. Whats the text about? a. a big dent car b. terrible weekend c. scared boys adventure experience d. ANSWER A (as the story revolves around the car having a dent that disappeared after the boys paid a mechanic to fix it) the sentence shouldve been a big dent in the back of the car 18. When did the car get a big dent? a. before going to the city b. after going out of the city c. before going to the nightclub d. after going out of the nightclub

Lets throw it into the fire The cooks wife said No, I dont want to waste my firewood. Drop a big rock on the monster to crush it. An old said Push him into the sea. There will be storms and it will surely down (most probably it was dRown) When the turtle heard this. It shouted You can burn me or crush me with a rock. But, please dont throw me into the sea. Im so afraid of drowning in a storm. The king said the monster is more afraid of the sea than anything else. Throw it into the sea. The servant threw the turtle into the sea. The clever turtle swam away happily 21. What does the text tell us about? a. the clever turtle b. the green monster c. the king and the turtle d. the king and the monster ANSWER C as it wasnt a monster but a turtle. A is also correct but the turtle wasnt really in the story until near the end. So C is more appropriate 22. Whats the fourth paragraph about? a. the monsters dislike b. the way to save the monster c. the solution to throw the turtle d. the kings opinion about the turtle ANSWER C ; in the paragraph the king decided to throw the turtle into the sea 23. why did the king want to kill the turtle? a. the king was a cruel man b. it looked like a green monster

This product is sold not to add more pain, but to make you better so Release is the most appropriate ANSWER A hurricane is a big tropical storm in Atlantic Ocean. (there are tropical storms in the Pacific and Indian Oceans, too but here theyre called typhoons or cyclones). Hurricanes start over the ocean, and they happen in late summer when the water is warm When a hurricane is photographed by a satellite, it looks like a giant doughnut. The centre of hurricane is called the eye. There is no wind here. The strong winds are pulled round the eye by rotation of the earth. A hurricane is formed over the ocean, but then its blown towards the islands of the Caribbean and the coasts of Central and North America. The winds can reach over 220 km/hr, so hurricanes can be very dangerous. Buildings are damaged. Trees, bridges and power lines are blown down. Every year hundreds of people are killed by hurricanes. Most damage is done on islands and along the coast. A lot of damage is caused by the sea because huge waves are created by the strong winds. The waves are blown onto the land, and cities, villages and fields are flooded. However, hurricanes and typhoons also do some good things. Over half the rain in Japan is brought by typhoons. Hurricanes are caused by heat. Scientists believe that if global warming increase, we will see many more hurricanes each year. 32.

Based on the text we can say that a. hurricanes happen in a certain area b. hurricane is the same as typhoons c. hurricane happens when the water is warm d. mostly hurricanes give positive effect for people ANSWER B (from the text a hurricane is formed over the ocean, but then its. America.), A (There are tropical storms called typhoons or cyclones) are correct & C (they happen in summer warm) are correct. The only one thats wrong is D Most probably the question should have been based on the text we caNT say that)
