Task 2
The people below all want to watch a television programme. On the opposite page there are descriptions of eight television programmes. Decide which programme would be the most suitable for the following people. For questions 6-10, mark the correct letter (A-H) on your answershit.


A. Below stairs
New comedy series about Ray and Jen, who work in the IT section of a big company. Their office is in the basement while their bosses work in luxury upstairs. Reviews so far have been mixed. There are plenty of laughs, though some people may find the situations rather silly.

B. Whiteout
All the latest action from the slopes, including men’s and women’s downhill racing, jumping, ice dance and ice hockey. Presented from the mountains by former footballer Neville Gray, with expert reports on speeds and distances. Figure skater Jayne Wilton comments on the dance performances.

C. Top Team
A return of the jokey quiz show, in which teams of famous sports personalities and comedians have to give amusing answers to questions on a range of popular sports, not just football and tennis but winter sports too. Light-hearted entertainment for everyone!

D. Quicksteps
Each week, well-known faces from the world of television team up with a professional partner to perform a range of classical and modern dances. You, the viewer, can vote for the best performance and the best costume, and each week’s winners will take part in the grand final later in the year.

E. Taskmaster
Can you beat the four members of the public who answer general knowledge and specialist questions in the final of this year’s completion? Tonight’s specialist subjects include the history of winter sports, Latin American dances, detective novels and French history. There will be information about how to enter next year’s competition.

F. The Two Dancers
Set in late 18th-century France, this drama tells of the relationship between two beautiful dancers who both love the same man. Although the ending is not unexpected, this drama is thoroughly entertaining all the way through. Worth watching just for the beautiful costumes and scenery.

G. Inspector Blake
A first-division football player has a beautiful wife, a big house and a bright future. When he’s found dead in his car near a local park, Blake discovers that he was less popular than it seemed. Set in the 1970s, this nail-biting drama will keep you guessing right until the end.

H. Madison
The little-known musical is based on the true story of an American ice hockey team in the 1930s. The facts are historically accurate, even though the show is advertised as a musical comedy-thriller. Really only of interest to experts in the history of musicals or ice hockey fans.

Task 3
Read the text and questions below. For each question, mark the correct letter A, B, C or D on your answer sheet.

Open-air Theatre


In Britain, the ancient tradition of open-air performances is still alive and well. Cornwall has some of Britain’s oldest working theatres, with one open-air theatre actually built into a cliff, a project only recently completed.

Two actors, Dave James and Muriel Thomas, came from London theatres to join a theatre company called Coastline. They now regularly perform in just such a theatre, by the sea. ‘One thing about performing outside is we never know what’ll happen. For example, if a bird lands on stage, we can’t act as if it’s not there – the audience are all watching it. So we just bring the bird into the play, too. Once, about 30 dolphins came past, jumping out of the water and showing off. The audience were all chatting about them instead of watching the play, so the actors just gave up for a while and watched the dolphins, too.’

The weather can also be difficult. ‘Sometimes it’s been so bad,’ says Muriel, ‘that we’ve asked the audience if they really want to stay. But usually they sit with their coats and umbrellas and say, “Yes, please carry on!” they must feel it isn’t much fun, but no one’s returned their ticket so far!’

Coastline’s director, John Barnack, works hard to introduce people to theatre. ‘Many people think of theatres as clubs where they don’t belong and are not welcome,’ he explains. ‘Sitting in the open air changes that feeling. The audience are far more involved – they aren’t sitting in the dark, at a distance like in normal theatres, and that improves the actors’ performances, too. I’m very proud of the work they’ve done so far.’
