II. Read the extract from a travel book. Choose A, B, or C.

I arranged to stay in a farmhouse outside a village in southern Italy. My schedule
said that the plane arrived in Italy at five o’clock in the afternoon and it was a thirty-
minute drive from the airport to the village. I wanted to get to my destination before it
got dark, so I could have a drink, watch the sunset, and enjoy an evening meal!
The problems began at Heathrow airport. My plane was three hours late. I walked
around the airport, looked in the shops, and drank coffee in the cafés. I didn’t eat
anything. That was a mistake! When the plane finally took off, they gave me a cold,
tasteless meal which I couldn’t eat. We arrived in Italy in the early evening. The sun was
setting as I was collecting my bags! I missed it completely! I went to the desk to find my
hire car and that’s when I discovered the next problem. The receptionist couldn’t find
my name on the computer and there were no more cars.
There were no buses or trains to the village, and the taxis were on strike. The
receptionist felt sorry for me. She phoned her brother, Alessandro, who agreed to take
me to the village. Alessandro arrived in a very old car and we set off. Fifteen minutes
later … we broke down. I was tired, depressed, and very, very hungry. Luckily,
Alessandro was a mechanic. After an hour, he fixed the car and we started driving again.
It was nearly midnight when we arrived at the farmhouse. A man opened the door
and smiled. ‘Come in,’ he said. ‘We waited for you.’ I sat with a group of the friendliest
people I’ve ever met and had an absolutely wonderful meal.

7. The receptionist asked a relative to help the writer.
8. Alessandro was a taxi driver.
9. When the car broke down, Alessandro phoned a mechanic.
10. There was no food for the writer at the farmhouse.

The Best Shopping Cities
Which are the best cities to shop in? Writer, Ellie Clare, has been to five cities
around the world to find out. This week, she writes about Paris.
I went to Paris in June. It’s a lovely city for sightseeing at that time of year, but
it’s also a great place to find high-quality fashion. I started in the boutiques and visited
all the top names, including Cartier, Chanel, Christian Dior, and Yves Saint Laurent.
I’ve never seen such beautiful things, but they are, of course, expensive. I bought some
perfume and moved on to the huge department stores of Paris. Two of the most famous
are Printemps and Galeries Lafayette and they are definitely good places to visit. One
place I found disappointing was The Champs-Elysées. In the old days, it was a great
place for fashion, but now there are too many fast-food restaurants, banks, airline
offices, shopping centres, and cinemas aimed at tourists. Don’t waste your time there!
After the shops, I tried the markets. One of the most famous places to find
treasures in Paris is the flea market. There are three main flea markets and they are
situated around the old gates of the city. I spent hours walking around these fascinating
places and while I was there, I discovered the meaning of the name flea market.
Hundreds of years ago, the royal family gave away their old clothes, but they were full
of little insects – fleas, of course! One stall holder told me that the best time to find
treasures at the market is before the crowds arrive, usually between 5. a.m. and 6. a.m.
But that was a bit early for me. I was enjoying Paris night life too much! There are also
open-air markets all around the city where you can buy flowers, clothes, pets, food, and
many other things. And if you want to buy a book, visit the rows of bookstalls along the
River Seine. You can find some great bargains there, or you can spend hours just
looking.
If you want to buy half of Paris or if you just want to walk around and look, you’ll
love the experience. Paris is a great place to shop!
1. Ellie went sightseeing in Paris.
2. She didn’t buy anything in the boutiques.
3. She went to some department stores in the city.
4. She recommends the department stores.
5. She thinks the Champs-Elysées isn’t as good as it was.
6. She had something to eat on the Champs-Elysées.
7. She bought something near the old gates of the city.
8. You can buy flowers at the flea market.
9. Ellie visited the flea markets early in the morning.
10. It’s possible to spend a lot of time looking at books.

Do You Have a Phobia?
Are you terrified at the thought of getting on an aeroplane? Do you worry about
spiders every time you go into the bathroom? Would you rather walk up 100 steps than
get into a lift? If the answer is ‘yes’ to any of these or similar questions, you may have a
phobia!
If you have a phobia, don’t worry. You’re not alone. It’s estimated that about 10
% of the world’s population have a phobia about something. The fear of flying, the fear
of heights, the fear of being in closed spaces or being in open spaces are some of the
most common phobias people have. However, there are hundreds of other unusual
phobias too, which are just as bad. Did you know that some people have a fear of
clowns? Can you believe that some people are afraid of fish and that others are scared of
garlic? Then there’s the fear of falling in love, the fear of rain, the fear of the moon, and
the fear of the stars! The list is endless.
For most people who don’t have phobias, these ideas are difficult to understand.
Even people with phobias usually know that there’s no real danger. However, they
cannot control their fears. When some people think about the object of their phobia, their
heart starts beating very quickly and they find it difficult to breathe. This is a natural
reaction to fear, but it can make life difficult if it happens all the time.
So if you have a phobia, what can you do about it? In some cases, you can simply
avoid the situation. If you have a fear of heights, don’t climb a mountain! However, in
other cases, it’s not so easy. What can you do if you’re terrified of vegetables? Some
people try relaxation techniques such as yoga or meditation. Some find that physical
exercise can help. Others change their diet and stop having alcohol, coffee, and other
unhealthy things.
Many people find writing about their phobia helps them understand what is
happening to them. But if none of these ideas help you, go and see your doctor. He or
she may suggest psychotherapy, or even hypnosis.
