The big majority of students who make well in the

Cambridge Proficiency Examination have learnt to use a

Good monolingual dictionary effectively. Such

Dictionaries provide informations, not just about the

Missings for the words but about their pronunciation and

grammar as well. A student who studies how to use a

dictionary effectively will be able to work independently

for much of the time, and will gain considerable insight

to the workings of the English language. He or she will

be able to confirm to the meanings for the words in a text

where contextual clues are insufficient, pronounce words

accurately by studying the phonological transcriptions,

And use words accurately both when speaking and

Writing. Make sure you make the room for at least one

Good monolingual dictionary on your bookshelf- and

then make sure you use it at a regular basis!

II. READING

Part 1: Read the passage and choose the correct answer for the following questions:

All at once Hazel was coming in through the French windows, pulling off gardening gloves, and Bill was entering through the door, both at once. So I only had time to take one quick look at her before I turned to face him. All very confusing. What that first glimpse showed me was that time had thickened her figure but didn't seem to have made much difference to her face. It still had good skin and youthful outlines. She was holding a bunch of roses – must have been cutting them in the garden while waiting for me. The gardening gloves lent a delightfully informal touch. It was quite an entrance, though Bill spoilt it a bit by making his at the same time.

Bill seemed longer and thinner. His tightly massed hair had a tinge of grey. Apart from that, twenty years had done nothing to him, except deepen the lines of thoughtfulness that had already, when I knew him, begun to spread across his face. Or was that all? I looked at him again, more carefully, as he looked away from me at Hazel. Weren't his eyes different somehow? More inward looking than ever? Gazing in not merely at his thoughts, but at something else, something he was keeping hidden or perhaps protecting.

Then we were chattering and taking glasses in our hands, and I came back to earth. For the first ten minutes we were all so defensive, so carefully probing, that nobody learnt anything. Bill had forgotten me altogether, that much was clear. He was engaged in getting to know me from scratch, very cautiously so as not to hit a wrong note, with the object of getting me to contribute a big subscription to his African project. I kept trying to absorb details about Hazel, but Bill was talking earnestly about African education, and the strain of appearing to concentrate while actually thinking about his wife proved so great that I decided it would be easier just to concentrate. So I did. I let him hammer away for about ten more minutes, and then the daughter, who seemed to be acting as parlourmaid, showed in another visitor. Evidently we were to be four at lunch.

1. What effect had time had on Hazel and Bill?

A. They had both lost weight. B. They were more withdrawn.

C. They hadn't changed at all. D. They had changed in subtle ways.

2. When they all started talking, the writer

A. relaxed at last. B. stopped dreaming.

C. spoke most to Hazel. D. began to remember things.

3. The writer found the first part of their conversation

A. sentimental. B. irritating. C. uninformative. D. trivial.

4. Why did Bill speak seriously?

A. He wanted some money from the writer. B. He did not remember the writer.

C. His wife was present. D. He was talking about the past.

5. In the end the writer found Bill's conversation

A. monotonous B. convincing C. thought-provoking D. instructive

Part 2: Read the following passage and choose the most suitable word for each space.

According to a magazine article I read recently, we (1) ......... live in an age of increasing leisure. Not only are more and more people reaching (2) ......... age with their taste for enjoyment and even adventure relatively (3) ......... but the working week is becoming shorter and the opportunities for (4) ......... are becoming greater and greater all the time. Not to mention the fact that people (5) .........to spend less time travelling to work or may even be working from home. What I can't understand, however, is who these people are.

1. A. presently B. at the moment C. now D. at this time
