Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, or D on your answer sheet to indicate the
correct answer to each of the questions from 31 to 35.
In the nineteenth century railways were built from the big industrial cities like Leeds and Manchester
to seaside towns like Blackpool and Scarborough. For the first time, ordinary working people could visit
the seaside. They used to take day trips on Sundays and special days like Bank holidays. Traditionally,
people sat in deckchairs on the beach, swam in the sea, and ate fish and chips. Children could watch Punch
and Judy shows, build sandcastles and ride donkeys on the beach. In the 1950s, the first package holidays
were launched.
Throughout the 60s and 70s, the British increasingly began to abandon the traditional seaside holiday
in favour of sunshine and warmer seas in countries like Spain and Greece. Caravan and camping holidays
also became popular in the 60s and 70s as car ownership increased. In the 1990s, budget airlines like
easyJet slashed the cost of air tickets to many European destinations. Long-haul flights also came down
in price, so holidays to exotic destinations in Australia and Asia became affordable to ordinary families.
A growing number of people began to book their own flights and accommodation, and as a result, the
package holiday market declined.
The holiday habits of the British continued to change into the new millennium. The internet changed
the way people booked holidays by allowing them to find the best deals online. City breaks grew in
popularity and many families were able to afford a second foreign holiday-often a winter skiing holiday.
However, the travel industry has suffered a serious setback in recent years because people are more aware
that flying causes serious damage to the environment. More people are choosing not to fly nowadays, and
many airlines are struggling to survive in the new economic climate.
(Adapted from Aim High by Tim Falla and Paul A Davies)

Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, or D on your answer sheet to indicate the
correct answer to each of the questions from 36 to 42.
In many countries, a growing number of people in their twenties are turning to social media in the hope
of finding work. Services like the social networking site Twitter and the professional networking site
Linkedln offer the chance for more direct contact with would-be employers than has previously been the
case. But with greater access comes a greater chance to make mistakes.
Take the case of a young jobseeker in the US who contacted a senior marketing executive via Linkedln.
The marketing executive in question had an impressive list of influential people in her contact list; people
whom the young jobseeker felt could help him land a job. The marketing executive, however, had other
ideas. Indignant at the suggestion that she would willingly share a list of contacts painstakingly built up
over many years with a complete stranger who'd done nothing to deserve such an opportunity, she not
only rejected his contact request, but sent a vicious and heavily sarcastic rejection note that has since gone
viral. But if the incident makes young people think more carefully about how they use social media in a
professional capacity, she may have actually ended up doing them a favour. She has drawn attention to
an unfortunate truth. Social media is a potentially dangerous tool for job hunters who don't know how to
use it. And a worrying number are getting it wrong.
There's a horrible irony here, because in many countries social networking sites like Facebook and
Twitter have been the bread and butter of twenty-somethings' social lives for years. When my generation
were teenagers, social media was our escape from the prying eyes of parents and teachers. It was a cyber
extension of the playground pecking order - a place to impress, to embellish and experiment. However,
when it comes to using social media for professional networking, our very knowledge and experience of
sites like Facebook may actually be a hindrance. Using social media in a professional capacity is a
completely different ball game, but for some twenty-somethings, the division is not clear cut. We first

earned our online presence by being bold and over-confident, which could explain why some of us still
come across like this. Just because a lot of people 'liked' your posts on Facebook, it doesn't mean you'll
be able to use Linkedln to show potential employers that you're someone worth employing. We need to
realise that what we learned about social networking as teenagers no longer applies, and we must live up
to employers' standards if we want to get on in the world of work.
(Adapted from Cambridge English Advanced by Cambridge University Press)
