6. Reading • Part 3 Questions 11–20 Look at the sentences below about a girl called anna and her new school building. read the text on the next page to decide if each sentence is correct or incorrect. if it is correct, mark a on your answer sheet. if it is not correct, mark B on your answer sheet. 11 anna’s school is the first one in her country to be made completely of wood. 12 anna had mixed feelings about seeing the space cleared ready for building the school. 13 builders managed to carry on with work on the school despite the weather. 14 there is one room that is kept just for local people to use for meetings. 15 the children find the new changing rooms convenient when they do sports on their field. 16 the inside of anna’s school depends on the people and machines in it to be warm. 17 the new school building has great benefits for people who like to sing. 18 the builders wanted to do something traditional for the school when they’d finished the roof. 19 Pictures of the wind turbine behind the school can now be seen online. 20 the pupils are busy preparing to do a performance for their parents in their new school building.

7. Anna’s new school It’s been a very exciting week, as we’ve just moved into our new school building! It’s an amazing place, as the builders have used wood for the whole thing, just like in our old school, but it’s also one of the first in my country designed to be really environmentally friendly. The school took months to build, so we saw it all happening. It was really exciting seeing the builders clear the space where it would be, although it also meant that some lovely open land disappeared. And the noise of the building machines was really loud, although the builders often had to stop work because it rained so hard. We all began to think the building would never be finished. We have five classrooms now, which are enormous – much bigger than in our previous school next door, which was very old. We share one room with people in the town when they want to have meetings and so on. There’s a nursery too, a lovely dining room, and really big changing rooms which we’re looking forward to using as soon as our new sports field is ready. When you come into the school, one of the first things you notice is that there aren’t any heaters in the building! Instead, the heat for the school comes from all of us inside it – the children, the teachers and the computers we use. The building is so well designed that it holds all the heat inside – and all the sound too, so if we sing inside our classrooms, we can almost believe we’re inside a concert hall! Another thing you’ll notice is that the school roof has a tree on top of it! It was put there by the builders once they’d finished the roof, because they said it was the custom in Austria, the country where the roof was made. The electricity for lights and computers comes from a wind turbine on a hill behind the school. We went with our teacher to look at it yesterday, and it goes round really fast. It’s so big, it can be seen for miles! We took some pictures which we’re planning to put on the website. Even though we’re already using the school building, there are still some parts to be added to it – for example, at the moment we’re putting on a play for parents to come and see, but we still have to walk back to our old school hall to do it. The replacement will be ready by next year, though. We’re so pleased with our new school, and our teachers say we’ll all learn much faster now we’re in it!

8. Reading • Part 4 Questions 21–25 read the text and questions below. For each question, mark the correct letter a, B, C or D on your answer sheet. JAZZ By Katie Atkins, aged 14 I play the trumpet in my school jazz band. Last month we held a jazz competition with bands from local high schools – and our band won! Each band had their own costumes, ranging from black school uniforms like my band wore, to brightly-coloured T-shirts. We didn’t look much like adult professional bands, but all of us were used to performing in competitions, so the quality of playing was amazing, especially considering everyone was so young. Players from each band even created new tunes right there on stage. It was exciting to watch – but even better when my band played on stage! We have a great jazz band at my school, but not everyone who wants to play in it gets accepted – only about half, in fact. But anyone who’s keen to play goes to jazz practice before school, and we often spend time together after school, listening to jazz and learning its language. There are also trips to jazz summer camps across the country – I’ve been to a couple and learnt a lot. Adults are often surprised that young people are getting interested in jazz. My music teacher thinks it’s because pop music isn’t challenging enough for people like me who are serious about music. But I find it exciting because it’s both new and old at the same time – you can create your own music, but you also feel you’re part of its history, as you’re playing on stage in the same way as great jazz performers before you. My school’s really lucky because we have great teachers, and parents who’ve supported us all the way. Without them, we’d never get anywhere with our music!

D were dressed to look like professional jazz bands. 23 most people at Katie’s school who are interested in jazz a attend early jazz sessions at school. B join the school jazz band. C learn about jazz in after-school classes. D go to jazz summer camps at the school. 24 Why does Katie enjoy playing jazz so much? a she finds it easier to learn than other forms of music. B she thinks it is more serious than pop music. C she likes the chance to perform with others on stage. D she feels in touch with jazz players of the past. 25 Which of the following would Katie write to a friend? a the competition was great, but B my mum and dad always do all they i think i preferred being in the can to help with my trumpet playing audience to playing – i was nervous! – i couldn’t do this successfully without their help.
