Question 6 -10
Read the text and questions below. For each question, circle the correct letter A, B, C, or D.
There is only one correct answer per question.
Liam Killeen Liam Killeen is a rising star in cross-country mountain biking. He has raced since he
was 12 and has had both successes and disappointments in that time. His worst moment so far was
during a recent World Championship. His front tire started to lose air in the last part of the race and
he finished fourth. This was not the first time he’d been unlucky. In a previous race, it was raining
heavily and he crashed his bike just minutes after the start. He often gets nervous before a race but
thinks that this is a good thing. “Nervous energy makes you go faster and on the day, it’s all about

winning. The important thing is to stay positive.” Liam likes a hard race with steep climbs. “They
make all the difference. You have to be really fit to get ahead.” He also enjoys entering competitions
at top levels as there are fewer riders in the race and this makes the start easier. “You can get into
the front group more quickly.” Liam has been chosen to go to the Olympic Games and one day he
would like to win a medal. “I’m still quite young and expect to be riding until my mid-thirties so
I’ve got enough time to achieve my dream. I know the Olympics are hard and I’ll have to produce
my best performance yet. But I feel confident.” Liam trains for 30 hours a week – always outside –
and he reaches speeds of 65 kmh. He thinks that cycling professionally is the best job in the world
and would recommend it to anyone. His advice to people starting to race is, “Be prepared for some
hard work. If the training was easy, it wouldn’t make you faster.”
6. What is the writer trying to do?
A. encourage people to cycle as a hobby

B. give details of Liam’s cycling career

C. compare cycling with other sports

D. explain why Liam became a cyclist

7. What happened towards the end of one of Liam’s races?
A. He fell off his bike.

B. The weather got really bad.

C. He was involved in an accident.

D. There was a problem with his bike.

8. Liam prefers a race that
A. includes some hilly ground.

B. has a lot of riders taking part.

C. attracts less experienced riders.

D. allows him to get ahead at the end.

9. What does Liam say about the Olympics?
A. He thinks he will perform badly.

B. Most riders will be younger than him.

C. The race is longer than he is used to.

D. He is looking forward to the challenge.

10. Which of the following would Liam say about cycling?
A. “I think everyone should start cycling. You don’t need to train very hard to get good at the
sport and it’s great fun.”
B. “I often get nervous before a race and I think that makes me perform badly but I don’t
intend to give up.”
C. “I know it’s not possible to win every race but I love cycling. I plan to continue the sport
for quite a few more years.”
D. “I have to cycle at least 4 hours a day. To get faster I’ll have to do even more and I don’t
know if I have enough time for that.”

Question 11 - 20
Look at the sentences below about advice for new students at a university. Read the text and
decide if each sentence is True or False.
As a new student, you’ve arrived two days before term starts to look around and get settled in
before your course begins and the place fills up. Here is some information to make all that a bit
easier (we hope!). The Student Welfare Office is normally open from 4 p.m. till 8p.m, Monday to
Friday. Today and tomorrow it will be open all day, from about 9 a.m. This is the place to come if
you have any problems, for example about money or accommodation (we have a list of rental
agencies and also advertise any rooms which become available in the university hostels at the end
of term). We also give out the university identity cards which you need to join the library and
which allow you to get discounts at a number of local shops (including bookshops) and places of
entertainment, such as clubs and cinemas. On Monday and Tuesday of next week, second-year
students will be running a book sale in the canteen from 10-3. Many of the books on your firstyear reading list will be available, and we suggest you should look here first before spending too
much on new books. The university canteen (open from 7.30 a.m. till 7.30 p.m.) sells hot meals
fairly cheaply, as well as snacks and drinks, but it'll save you money to cook at least some of your
own meals. There is a basic cookery course starting next week (run by students for students, so it's
really practical). If you don't know how to boil an egg, this is for you. It's always full, so get your
name on the list in the Welfare Office NOW! The sports centre is open from today. Look on the
Faculty of English- DNU

noticeboards there for information about athletics, swimming, team games and so on. It is also
possible to join some local city clubs, such as golf or squash, at a discount (show them your card)
if you can play at a reasonable level. Addresses in the sports-centre office. The Music School
welcomes all members of the university, whatever their main subject of study, for part- time
courses. Why not take the opportunity to start learning the guitar, violin or piano while you're
here? Many advanced students offer really cheap lessons. There are also open evenings when

anyone can take the chance to perform in front of an audience. Look out for notices advertising
times and dates.
11. This information is to help students who have arrived after the start of the university term. F
