Questions 19 to 26 are based on the following passage.
Read the passage carefully and choose the best answer A, B, C or D.
For each question, mark your answer on the answer sheet.
Around 11 a.m., Wayne Barrett was
waiting for his son, Spencer to come home
from school. A yellow bus loaded with school
kids from the rural Winn Elementary School
near Michigan, arrived at his place. With a
wave to his friends, Spencer jumped into his
father’s arms.
Several metres away from the road
stood a 50-foot-tall utility pole and hidden in
the knee-deep at its base was a metal wire that
supported the old wooden structure. The bus
started backing out of the road towards the
pole to turn around. Then it stopped, and for
several seconds 65-year-old driver Richard
Henry checked to see which child would be
dropped off next. “Is Kory Kenny here?” he
asked. “Yes,” replied the kids, referring to the
freckled-nosed boy in the first seat across from
Henry. There were 11 kids in all.
As the bus slowly moved again, the
sound of shattering wood ripped the air. Barrett
looked up to see the bus’s bumper pushing at
the metal wire. The wooden pole was broken.
One of the power lines hung off to the side.
The other was over the bus’s emergency hatch
on the roof. It carried 46,000 volts. Henry
wanted to continue driving. “Stop!” Barrett
shouted, frantically waving his hands to Henry.
“There’s a live wire. Don’t get off the bus. I’ll
call 911.”
Barrett was a fireman before. He knew
the kids should be fine as long as they stayed
put and didn’t touch the bus and the ground at
the same time. But any child stepping off the
bus risked getting electric shock. The rear tires
were smoking. Inside the bus, the frightened
faces of the children were pressed against the
windows. Barrett quickly explained the
situation to Henry. Nobody could safely touch
the vehicle and ground at the same time, he
said.
But as they talked, Henry noticed smoke

building in the air and flowing into the bus. The
current began damaging the bus with a loud
noise. Firefighters were on the way. The children
saw smoke rising in the back of the bus. The seat
frames were getting hot. Electricity had flowed
through the bus. The smoke was building up
inside and the kids were coughing more. Henry
opened the bus door. “We’ve got to get the kids
off,” he called to Barrett. “Yes,” Barrett yelled
back. “Right now.” Their eyes locked. The men
feared that death by smoke or fire could be just
minutes away. They decided they had only one
option – but it involved a deadly mission. Henry
would throw each kid through the narrow bus
door towards Barrett.
“Get up,” Henry told the schoolkids.
“Line up behind me.” He instructed them on the
importance of not touching anything. They had to
go out face first with their arms tucked in, not
brushing the door on the way out. If a child fell to
the ground, then reached back to grab the door or
another child on the bus, he could be getting
electric shock. Henry wanted to make sure each
kid landed on the ground at least five feet from
the front door. “You’ll all be safe,” Henry
promised. Barrett would quickly collect each
child. Then, he did it.
Not long after, a blue Michigan State
Police car and two fire engines arrived at the
scene. They could see flames and thick black
smoke, while the electricity from the hot wire
caused bright blue-white fire. Still worried that
he might have missed someone, Henry searched
the bus, calling out for children. He found no
one. Returning to the front door, he planted his
work boots and pushed hard off the top step. He
then landed on the ground near Barrett. Within
several minutes, the electricity power was shut
off. The fires were put out before anyone was
hurt.

Part 4
Questions 27 to 32 are based on an article about plastic waste.
Six sentences have been removed from the article. Choose from the sentences A to H the one which
fits each gap (27 to 32). There are two extra sentences which you do not need to use. Mark your
answers on the answer sheet.

A Plastic Ocean – A Film Review

A Plastic Ocean is a film that makes us think and act. Since the 1940s, massive quantities of
plastics have been produced. Bottles, shopping bags, toiletries and even shoes are made with plastic.
27 What happens to all the rest? This is the question the film A Plastic Ocean answers. It is a
documentary that looks at the effect that plastic waste has on the environment and it is shocking.
The film begins as a journey to film the largest animal on the planet, the blue whale.
However, during the journey, the filmmakers, Craig Leeson and Tanya Streeter, make the shocking
discovery of a huge, thick layer of plastic floating in the middle of the Indian Ocean. 28 In
total, they visited 20 locations around the world during the four years it took them to make the film.
This film was premiered in 2016, and is now on streaming services such as Netflix.
It’s very obvious that a lot of research went into the film. There are beautiful shots of the seas

and marine life. 29 We see how marine species are being killed by all the plastic we are
dumping in the ocean. The message about our use of plastic is severely clear.

30 In the second half, the filmmakers look at what we can do to reverse the tide of
plastic flowing around the world. They present short-term and long-term solutions. These include
avoiding plastic containers and ‘single-use’ plastic products as much as possible. 31 The
filmmakers also stress the need for governments to work more on recycling programs, and look at
how technology is developing that can convert plastic into fuel.
We make a surprising amount of plastic. In terms of plastic bags alone, we use five
hundred billion worldwide annually. Over 300 million tons of plastic are produced every year, and
at least 8 million of those are dumped into the oceans. 32 Once you’ve seen A Plastic
Ocean, you’ll realize the time is now and we all have a role to play.

Part 5

Questions 33 to 40 are based on the following texts.

Janet and Peter, a young couple with a baby, are interested to buy a house. Below are six different
houses they have viewed and the descriptions of each house. Read the texts below and answer the
questions that follow.

A – SINGLE-STOREY TERRACE HOUSE

This house is located in the middle of the town where both Janet and Peter work. They need to
take only about 7 minutes to go to their workplace. However, it needs to be repaired a lot and that
could cost a bomb. The house has three medium-sized bedrooms with two bathrooms, a living
room, a kitchen and a small garden beside a porch. The asking price is within budget.

B – STUDIO APARTMENT
This apartment is right in the town and has everything Janet and Peter need. It is a compact, partly
furnished and priced within their budget. However as in future, it is not suitable for a growing
family as they have a baby and need more space later on.

C - BUNGALOW
This twelve-year-old bungalow is located in the outskirts of town. Janet and Peter will take about
50 minutes to travel from home to work. The house is partly equipped with five bedrooms, a
dining room, a living room, a kitchen, three bathrooms and a large basement. The back yard is
also huge. However, the asking price is a little over their budget.

D - APARTMENT
The couple viewed an apartment on the 12 th floor of a nice well-maintained building. It is in the
middle of the city, which is quite busy and noisy. The apartment has two bedrooms and one
bathroom, a kitchen, a living room and a parking space in the basement. This price is quite
expensive. It is because of the location and accessibility.

E – DOUBLE-STOREY HOUSE
This place is about 15 minutes away from their office. The house is fully furnished and well-
maintained. It has four bedrooms, three bathrooms, a kitchen, a living room, a dining space, and a
nice back yard. This property also suited their budget.

F - TOWNHOUSE
This place is about two blocks away from their workplace. It is not furnished but it has three
spacious bedrooms, two bathrooms, a kitchen and a living room. The price is in their budget.
However, there is only a small porch and no garden or back yard.
