READING
Read the following passage and decide whether the statements are true (T) or false (F).
Who are the best drivers? According to a recent survey, young and inexperienced drivers are the most
likely to have an accident. Older drivers are more careful. Young men have the worst accident record of all.
They often drive faster cars with bigger engines. One of the most interesting findings in the survey is that
passengers can affect the driver. When young male drivers drive their friends, their driving becomes worse.
When their wives or girlfriends are in the car; however, their driving improves. But this is not true for
women. Their driving is more dangerous when their husbands or boyfriends are in the car. However, if
their children are riding in the car, they drive more slowly and safely.

Read the following passage and choose the best option A, B, C, or D to indicate the correct answer.
CYCLING IN THE COUNTRYSIDE
This spring my older brother and I left the busy city and spent a long weekend cycling in the countryside.
Our average speed was only around 14 kph, but that didn't matter. We hadn't come to break any speed
records, or to get lit and healthy. All we wanted was some fresh air and a break from schoolwork. My bike
only once went more than 30 kph, and that was when I raced my brother down the only hill on our route.
We really enjoyed cycling along flat, traffic-free country paths. There was plenty of spring sunshine, but it
was quite cold, especially in the mornings. We didn't mind, though - and we soon warmed up as we rode
along. Our only problem was when my brakes started making a terrible noise, but I didn't mind as it gave us
an excuse to visit a café while a helpful bike mechanic had a look at it. That was one of the best things
about our route: every few kilometers there was a village where we could find everything we needed. All
the local people were really friendly, too. However, most places we stopped at served chips with all the
meals, which soon got fairly boring. One night we were woken at 4 a.m. by a group of rugby fans singing
loudly in the hotel corridor. We were tired and bad-tempered when we set off the next morning and very
nearly got lost, but soon felt more cheerful when the sun came out. That's what I like about cycling - it's
simple and it's fun. If you're looking for a short break that’s active and cheap, then cycling is a great choice!
