I. A new report into teenagers’ leisure time has some surprising results. Read it and fill in each blank
with the correct figure from the report.
In this digital age, many people think that young adults spend all their time on the computer. And a
new government survey of how young adults spend their leisure time says that 87 percent of people in the
UK between the ages of 13 to 19 use the Internet every day. But it’s still important for young people to go
out with friends. And the most popular evening out is going to the cinema: 42 percent say it’s their favorite
way to spend an evening.
For people who don’t go out, not surprisingly, television is more popular than radio. 82 percent say
that they watch television for more than ten hours a week – mainly for films and news programmers – but
only 23 percent listen to radio.
Music is always a favorite topic, but it seems that many people listen to music than can play a
musical instrument. The survey reveals that 38 percent watch live music, but 30 percent of people between
13 and 19 can play a musical instrument.
Only 32 percent of young adults play sports; with football, swimming, and cycling as the most
popular activities. But that means that more than two-thirds don’t play any sport!

Paragraph 3
Read the passage. Fill in the statements with a suitable word/phrase from the passage.
A favourite winter activity is skating. But before you go skating on a pond or lake, there
are a few safety tips you should know. The ice should be at least 6 inches thick. Never skate alone.
Never assume the ice is safe, and do not go out onto the ice after an animal or toy. Always be familiar
with the area where you want to skate and be sure it is well-lit if you go skating at night. The safest
place to go skating is on a skating rink. Some cities have outdoor skating rinks. And most cities have an
indoor skating rink you can use for a small fee.
When you go skating for the first time, make sure you wear warm socks, a warm hat, and
lots of layers of clothing. Most rinks have hot drinks and snacks, but you can also bring your own
snacks. Weekends are usually the busiest time of the week to go skating. Weekday nights are usually
less crowded. Evening skating can be a lot of fun for the whole family. Most rinks have floodlights. At
night, the rink is lit up and bright.
1. The thickness of the ice should be _________________ as minimum.
2. When you go for night skating, it is essential that the skating area is _________________.
3. To be safest, you shouldn’t go out of the _________________.
4. You need to pay a _________________ to use indoor skating rink.
5. You should wear _________________ clothes when going skating.
6. If you forget to bring foods and drinks, you may get _________________ at the rinks.
7. If you don’t like having many people at the rink, you can go at _________________.

Paragraph 4
THE OLYMPIC GAMES
Every four years people all over the world watch the Olympic Games. It is a time for all kinds of people
to unite in peace. Some of them join to compete for gold medals. Millions of other people watch them
on television.
Why do we have the Olympics? How did they begin? The first Olympic Games were in Greece in 776
B.C. There was only one event. People ran a race the length of the stadium. The Games lasted one day.
Slowly people added more events. The Games were only for men, and women could not even watch
them. Only Greeks competed. They came from all parts of the Greek world. The time of the Games was
a time of peace, and the government let everyone travel safely. Kings competed against common people.
The winners became national heroes.
The first modern Games were in 1896 in Athens. The Greeks built a new stadium for the competition.
Athletes from several countries competed. Then there were Olympics every four years in different cities
in Europe and the United States until 1952. After that they were held in Melbourne, Tokyo, Mexico
City, and Montreal besides in European cities. Each year there were athletes from more nations. The
first Winter Olympics were in 1924. The athletes compete in skiing and other winter sports.
Today there must be Olympic Games every four years. The Games must have at least fifteen events, and
they cannot last more than sixteen days. There are no age limit people of any age can compete.
The competitors must not be professionals. They must be amateurs. The athletes compete for gold
medals. The winners are still national heroes, as they were in the early Olympic Games in Greece.
In 1956, Egypt, Iraq, and Lebanon boycotted the Games. They did not compete in the Games because
several countries took the Suez Canal from Egypt that year. Other countries boycotted the Games in
1964 and 1976. In 1980, the United States and other countries boycotted the Games in Moscow. In
1984, the Soviet Union and other countries boycotted the Games in Los Angeles. How can the nations
of the world solve this problem? Maybe the Games should be in Greece every year, where they began.
Then athletes from all over the world could compete without any boycotts.

I. A new report into teenagers’ leisure time has some surprising results. Read it and fill in each
blank with the correct figure from the report.
In this digital age, many people think that young adults spend all their time on the computer. And a new
government survey of how young adults spend their leisure time says that 87 percent of people in the UK
between the ages of 13 to 19 use the Internet every day. But it’s still important for young people to go out
with friends. And the most popular evening out is going to the cinema: 42 percent say it’s their favorite way
to spend an evening.
For people who don’t go out, not surprisingly, television is more popular than radio. 82 percent say
that they watch television for more than ten hours a week – mainly for films and news programmers – but
only 23 percent listen to radio.
Music is always a favorite topic, but it seems that many people listen to music than can play a
musical instrument. The survey reveals that 38 percent watch live music, but 30 percent of people between
13 and 19 can play a musical instrument.
Only 32 percent of young adults play sports; with football, swimming, and cycling as the most
popular activities. But that means that more than two-thirds don’t play any sport!

Paragraph 3
Read the passage. Fill in the statements with a suitable word/phrase from the passage.
A favourite winter activity is skating. But before you go skating on a pond or lake, there
are a few safety tips you should know. The ice should be at least 6 inches thick. Never skate alone.
Never assume the ice is safe, and do not go out onto the ice after an animal or toy. Always be familiar
with the area where you want to skate and be sure it is well-lit if you go skating at night. The safest
place to go skating is on a skating rink. Some cities have outdoor skating rinks. And most cities have
an indoor skating rink you can use for a small fee.
When you go skating for the first time, make sure you wear warm socks, a warm hat,
and lots of layers of clothing. Most rinks have hot drinks and snacks, but you can also bring your own
snacks. Weekends are usually the busiest time of the week to go skating. Weekday nights are usually
less crowded. Evening skating can be a lot of fun for the whole family. Most rinks have floodlights. At
night, the rink is lit up and bright.
1. The thickness of the ice should be 6 inches as minimum.
2. When you go for night skating, it is essential that the skating area is well-lit.
3. To be safest, you shouldn’t go out of the skating rink.
4. You need to pay a small fee to use indoor skating rink.
5. You should wear warm clothes when going skating.
6. If you forget to bring foods and drinks, you may get drinks and snacks at the rinks.
7. If you don’t like having many people at the rink, you can go at weekday nights.
8.Evening skating can be a good activity for the whole family.

Paragraph 4
THE OLYMPIC GAMES
Every four years people all over the world watch the Olympic Games. It is a time for all kinds of people
to unite in peace. Some of them join to compete for gold medals. Millions of other people watch them
on television.
Why do we have the Olympics? How did they begin? The first Olympic Games were in Greece in 776
B.C. There was only one event. People ran a race the length of the stadium. The Games lasted one day.
Slowly people added more events. The Games were only for men, and women could not even watch
them. Only Greeks competed. They came from all parts of the Greek world. The time of the Games was
a time of peace, and the government let everyone travel safely. Kings competed against common people.
The winners became national heroes.
The first modern Games were in 1896 in Athens. The Greeks built a new stadium for the competition.
Athletes from several countries competed. Then there were Olympics every four years in different cities
in Europe and the United States until 1952. After that they were held in Melbourne, Tokyo, Mexico
City, and Montreal besides in European cities. Each year there were
athletes from more nations. The first Winter Olympics were in 1924. The athletes compete in skiing and
other winter sports.
Today there must be Olympic Games every four years. The Games must have at least fifteen events, and
they cannot last more than sixteen days. There is no age limit people of any age can compete.
The competitors must not be professionals. They must be amateurs. The athletes compete for gold
medals. The winners are still national heroes, as they were in the early Olympic Games in Greece.
In 1956, Egypt, Iraq, and Lebanon boycotted the Games. They did not compete in the Games because
several countries took the Suez Canal from Egypt that year. Other countries boycotted the Games in
1964 and 1976. In 1980, the United States and other countries boycotted the Games in Moscow. In
1984, the Soviet Union and other countries boycotted the Games in Los Angeles. How can the nations
of the world solve this problem? Maybe the Games should be in Greece every year, where they began.
Then athletes from all over the world could compete without any boycotts.
Questions
1. What was the only event in the first Olympic Games?
→ People ran a race the length of the stadium.
2. How many nations played in the first Games?
→ Only Greeks played in the first Games.
3. What is the age limit?
→ There is no age limit. People of any age can compete.
4. Are the competitors professionals or amateurs?
→ They must be amateurs.
5. Where and when is the next Olympic Games?
→ The next Olympic Games is four years after the last one. (in London, England in 2012)
