SAMPLE EXAM QUESTIONS FROM THE BOOK!
Read the conversation between these British students who are discussing what they like to do in their free time. Answer the questions below by circling either TRUE, FALSE or NOT MENTIONED.
Archie: Mi tiempo libre siempre ha estado ocupado por el deporte y la música. Soy miembro de un equipo de baloncesto, y competimos a nivel nacional. Así que dedico muchas horas de la semana a entrenar, y también me paso casi todo el fin de semana entrenando. Aparte del baloncesto, la música también es muy importante para mí. Gracias a ella, puedo desconectarme del mundo y relajarme.
Thomas: Paso al menos dos horas al día en el skatepark de mi ciudad. A mí nunca me gustó el fútbol – el skate es mi pasión. Pero antes de que construyeran el skatepark el año pasado, mis compañeros y yo no teníamos ningún sitio donde hacer lo que nos gusta – teníamos que patinar en la calle. No hace falta decir que la gente del barrio estaba muy enfadada con nosotros. Pero ahora todo va bien.
Sophie: Estoy muy interesada en los videojuegos, y dedico una gran parte de mi tiempo libre a jugar con mi consola. ¿Mi género favorito? Son los juegos de tiro o los puzzles, pero me gusta probarlo todo. Con mi PlayStation me conecto a internet para encontrarme con mis amigos. Podemos charlar y jugar juntos, ¡es genial!
Max: En cuanto a mí, soy un lector asiduo. Fuera del colegio, devoro un libro por semana – normalmente, elijo una novela americana o algo de Federico García Lorca. Por otro lado, nunca veo la televisión; lo considero una pérdida de tiempo. Pero me encanta visitar museos y paso cada fin de semana en una galería de arte. Empaparme de cultura de calidad es mi vida.
