Exam Behavior Strategy: Analysis of Answers from Previous Years

The test tests all language skills. That is why, before taking the test, it is better for you to determine which skill should be improved: listening, speaking, writing, reading. It is likely that you have a good passive vocabulary, which means that you understand information well by ear, and there is not enough active vocabulary in the dictionary. This can complicate the task of running some tests. And yet, there are several universal tips that will help prevent at least elementary mistakes in the test:

Don't leave questions unanswered. Try to answer at least something.
Learn to recognize and perceive words in context. This will not only save you time, but it will also help you answer a question that you, at first glance, did not fully understand.
Read the questions carefully. Sometimes the answer may be hidden in the text of the question. The main thing to remember: not always the same words are used in questions as in the answers, synonyms can be used.

The test reviews from previous years will help you prepare for the exam:
It is also worth repeating idioms and phraseological units. They can be used in text and it will be good if you don't start translating them verbatim. Also, you can always use the exclusion method: discard options that definitely do not fit.

The main condition for success is to read the assignments carefully, especially if they are long, long texts. The last part is the writing, the examiners check it by hand, so try to write legibly, divide the text into paragraphs and do not use overly complex sentences. Make mistakes in complex sentence it is possible on native language not even worth talking about english. The easier and clearer you are to express your thoughts, the more likely you are to get good points for your writing.

Going Green!
By Julie Cameron

When I told my mother I was going to be a vegetarian she didn’t try to discourage me, she simply said, “Fine, but I’m not making two dinners”. She thought it was a phase, something that I would grow out of. After all, who can live their entire life without eating a hamburger, or the traditional turkey at Thanksgiving? Turns out, lots of people can.

Much to my mother’s dismay, I turned out to be one of thousands of vegetarians in Canada who were under voting age. Some people thought I did it to be cool, some people (like my mother) thought I did it for shock value. But I was always asked the one-word question: WHY?

Lots of reasons. I was never a big steak fan, loved animals, and when I was little I had a friend who lived on a dairy farm. If you have ever named a cow, you will understand how difficult it is to sit down to a hamburger. But there was, of course, one fateful encounter that pushed me to my dinner of destiny.

My mother had a friend named Jen. Jen had long brown hair down to her calves. I'm not exaggerating, it was down to her calves. She insisted we go to a natural food store in our town so she could get organic vegetables and soymilk. I had never even known what soy was, or that there was a difference between vegetables from the grocery store and vegetables from a natural food store. And I was amazed. Not only did she have hair down to her calves, but she also knew about foods I had never even heard of. My decision was made.

I feel very fortunate to be a vegetarian in an age where there are so many meat alternatives. My friends and family appreciate that I don’t try to force my food choices on them.

If you are thinking about becoming a vegetarian, it’s important to do a little research first and make sure you maintain a healthy diet. I have met so many junk-food vegetarians (a self-proclaimed vegetarian who doesn't eat meat, but doesn't eat anything healthy or remotely close to a vegetable), that I'm not surprised most people think eating vegetarian isn ' t healthy.

6. According to paragraph 1, how did Julie’s mother react to her daughter’s decision to become a vegetarian?

7. What finally persuaded Julie to try vegetarianism?

8. According to the text, which of the following is the most essential to be a vegetarian?

9. According to the text, all of the following statements about vegetarians are true EXCEPT ______.

10. It is stated in the text that Julie _____.
