英语考试分为两部分——理解和你自己的作文。每个部分大约花半个小时。

SECTION ONE: COMPREHENSION‐ 30 Minutes

This extract is from Tunnels by Roderick Gordon and Brian Williams. In this passage, Will and Chester are exploring a strange, underground city they have discovered when they are captured by strangers.

Read the passage carefully all the way through and then answer the questions that follow in the answer booklet.

1. Put the following events in the order in which they occur in the extract. Number them from one to five, where one happens first and five happens last.

2. Look at lines 1­8. In your own words, explain how the boys feel as they explore the underground city.

3. The writer describes Chester’s feelings about the place in line 8: ‘All his instincts were screaming that they should turn back.’ What kind of picture does this line create in your mind?

4. What do you think the writer means in line 3 when he says that the boys were ‘soaking up the strangeness of the ancient shops’?

5. Circle the word or phrase which has the closest meaning to ‘repugnance’ (line 1)

Disgust Confusion Bitterness Pity Hatred

6. Carefully read lines 10­14. Explain how the writer creates an atmosphere of shock and confusion here. Include two quotes from these lines in your answer.

7. Explain in your own words how Will and Chester are captured.

8. Think of two words that, in your opinion, best describe the attack on the boys. Give credit for any two sensible suggestions

9. Look back at the whole passage. Find three points in the text where the writer creates a sinister or frightening atmosphere for the reader. For each example, give the line(s) you have chosen and explain how the writer makes it a scary moment.

SECTION 2: Composition – 30 Minutes

Write in full sentences and organise your work into paragraphs. Marks are available for accurate spelling and punctuation. You should spend time planning and checking your work. Choose one of the following ideas:

Either:

1) What happens next?

Carry on from where the Tunnels extract finishes. Start with the line, ‘His whole being emanated evil and his dark eyes never left Will’s, who felt a wave of dread wash over him’ and continue the story. You don’t have to end the story? write 3­4 detailed paragraphs in which you describe what happens next.

Or:

2) An interesting or unusual place I have visited. Write an article for your school magazine about an interesting place you have visited recently. You might like to explain what you found different or unusual about the place, what kinds of things you saw and experienced and the impact the place had on you. Remember that you are writing for people of your own age.

Or:

3) An Encounter with a Villain. Write an account in which you encounter a villainous character. You should make up details about his/her appearance, their character, and what they say and do. Try to use description to entertain and excite the reader.

Or:

4) A Mysterious Discovery. You discovered something very strange on your way home from school yesterday. Write a letter to your friend in which you explain what you found in detail: where you were, what happened, how you felt and what you did.
