Janet wants to be an artist and enjoys documentaries

and films about real life, especially those with a
message. She only goes to the cinema at the weekend.

Jody is going to the cinema with her mother for her

birthday and loves nothing better than an emotional
film with a happy ending.

Dave has a very stressfull life and goes to the cinema

to disconnect. He loves comedies.

Mark has a young son who loves exciting films. As a

treat they are going to the cinema.

The lewis family doesn´t go to the cinema very often,

but when they do, they prefer detecive films. The
actors aren´t important, they like the plot.
 Films
A- The Take-away Man
This is supposed to be a comedy
but someone forgot to bring the
laughs. Some good acting but
the story line is very predictable.
A bit too long at over two hours.
C- One step too far.
This film is based on a true story
about the lessons you can learn
from an expedition to the South
Pole, and has some spectacular
photography. Try not to miss it if
you can.
F- School
School life in America from the
inside. Life as it is for young kids
in a New York school, with
dysfunctional teachers and
parents. There is some romance
to save it.
H- The Shearing
A riotous tale of a sheep and a
butcher, with the help of the
local village. You will laugh till
you cry. Good acting and a great
script.
B- No Escape
Police films don´t come any better
than this. A detective gone bad is
hunted by the force, and you
never know what is around the
corner. No big stars, but a lot of
big performances, and a great
story line.
D- Fire In The Sky
When an island volcano erupts, it
is a thrilling race against time to
save the villagers, and the sharks
are coming to dinner. You won´t
fall asleep with this action
packed adventure.
E- Love In The Distance
Love overcomes all in this
romantic film as a young boy and
girl from very different
backgrounds manage to say their
vows, eventually! You will need a
big box of tissues for this one.
G- Get Micky
The big stars come out to pick up
their paychecks but forget to
bring their acting skills. This film
is just a farce to get you into the
cinema. The plot is weak and the
actingnon-existent.
C) READING PART 3

For each question, choose the correct answer A, B, C or D. (5 x 2 = 10 pts)

Underwater research
Fourteen-year-old Miguel Diaz talks about an exciting science project

Last month I got the chance to take part in an underwater research project in an area of the Gulf of Mexico
called the Flower Gardens. A team of professional researchers, led by the scientist Dr. Matt Phillips, was
trying to learn more about the fish and various creatures that live in this part of the sea. The Flower
Gardens are a long way from the shore and we spent three days on a boat.

The team used a piece of underwater equipment called a Remotely Operated Vehicle (ROV) to collect
information. The ROV could measure water depth and temperature and it also had a camera that sent live
film back to the boat. The ROV was great fun. It was controlled by a computer on the boat, and I was
allowed to operate it a few times.

However, the thing I enjoyed most was diving into the water. At first, I was quite frightened – mainly
because I couldn’t see land in any direction. But as soon as I jumped into the water, I wasn’t afraid
anymore. It was amazing to see the colourful fish swimming around and I could see all the way to the
Flower Gardens, which are almost 30 metres down.

I will never forget the Flower Gardens. The trip was like a holiday but I also learnt new things about
science and research projects. The team was very friendly and everyone was happy to explain what they
knew about the sea. It was a great opportunity and it has made me think about my goals in life. The
experience will definitely help me work harder to become a scientist.
