<b>B. Choose the best answer :</b>

Every day many road accidents happen in Hong Kong. Everyone, especially children must learn
how to cross the road. A simple code to remember is “STOP, LOOK and LISTEN BEFORE YOU
CROSS”.

The Transport Department organized road safety campaigns every year in order to reduce traffic
accidents. Parents and teachers should educate children on road safety. Most schools have their
own School Road Safety Patrols. The School Road Safety Patrols is a uniformed group. It recruits
secondary school students as members. Students in senior forms help fellow students cross the road
correctly and safely on their way to and from school.

When you go out alone, however, what is the best way to cross the road? First, you must find a safe
place to cross. Of course, it is safest to be directed by a policeman or a traffic warden.

Roads are dangerous. However, if everyone takes care when crossing the road, there will be fewer
traffic accidents. Our transport system will then become safer and more efficient.

6. Who must learn how to cross the road safely?

A. Children and their parents. B. Everyone, especially teachers.
C. Those injured in road accidents. D. Everyone who uses the road.

9. What should you do first if you want to cross a road?

A. Look around for traffic. B. Ask a policeman or traffic warden for help.
C. Find a safe place to cross. D. Stand at the kerb.

10. According to the writer, what will happen if everyone is more careful in using the road?

C. There will be no more traffic accidents. D. The roads will be widen.

<b>C. Read the passage, then decide whether the following statements are True or False:</b>
I’m in a favour of English- speaking contests in school. Such contests encourage students to
practise speaking English in their classes and help them improve their speaking skills. Besides, while
preparing themselves for the contest, students have a chance to review their lesson thoroughly.
Contests among classes provide students with opportunities to work with team spirit, thus enabling
them to learn how to cooperate with other people. Some students may think that their preparation for
the speaking contests are time- consuming. However, in my opinion, such preparations are worth
spending time on. My classmates and I have found that we speak English better after each contest. In

sum, English-speaking contests in school are useful to students.

11. English- speaking contests give students opportunities to practise speaking English.
12. English- speaking contests provide students with a lot of useful skills.

13. English- speaking contests ask for a thoroughly review.
14. English- speaking contests take a lot of time to prepare.
15. The writer is an English teacher.
