RAINFOREST WORLD MUSIC FESTIVAL

The 20th Rainforest World Music Festival will be taking place on 14-16 July. The
event was planned to take place in Sibu but was then changed to Kuching
because many foreigners are expected to come. Last year, the festival had 16,000
people and it is expecting about 20,000 of visitors this year.

The Rainforest World Music Festival is a special festival that brings together
famous world musicians from all continents and local musicians from the hearts
of the island of Borneo. What makes it more special is that we have Belgium
Acoustic Band making their first appearance this year.

The festival has three afternoons of interesting and fun workshops and mini
concerts, followed by evening live performances on the main stage. These
performances have proven to be a hit with the audience, who come from near and
far. On the final night, there will also be a sing-together session that will be led by
an international superstar.
The festival site is set up with a variety of food and drink stalls. We are no longer
serving free juices for visitors but you will be served an ice tea when you enter.
Independent singers will also set up an arts area to offer their latest music at a
cheap price.

The Rainforest World Music Festival is a not-to-be-missed occasion. This will give
everyone a great time in the heart of the Borneo Jungle.

Read the text below and answer questions 25 - 34.

My best friend

Friends are important to us. We do not need too many friends but a
few great friends makes a huge difference in our lives. I have such a good
friend in my life. Her name is Lily and we go to the same school. Although we
are the same age, we do not learn in the same class. Her class is one floor
below mine because we have different interests in studies. I love science and
she loves history.

Lily has a good sense of humour. She always makes me smile when I am
down. She sometimes makes jokes that I can laugh so hard my stomach hurts.
She is the most hardworking person I know and she is never selfish in sharing
what she knows. Her knowledge in world history is amazing. She dreams to
become a history journalist one day.

Lily and I live in the same neighbourhood. Every morning, we take the
school bus together to go to school. Sometimes, my mother would make two
packed meals to give one to Lily. We would eat together during the school
break. I can eat a lot. So when Lily cannot finish her meal I would be the first
to take her food. She always jokes that I might become a teddy bear if I
keep eating so much.

Another reason Lily and I become so close is because we share the

same love for netball. We both play for the school netball team and we train
three times a week after school. Lily is recently chosen as the team captain.
Coach likes that she is a fair person. One time I was late for training, she
made me run five rounds around the court as punishment even though we are
close friends. Besides, she trains hard and always communicate with us during
games.

I am grateful because I have a good friend. Lily has been like a sister
to me. I cannot imagine my life without her.

My school had a new volleyball coach and I attended their training recently.

On my first day of training, our coach talked about the sport and its rules. We were divided into two

teams. 35| Between us, there was a net about a few metres high. Each team tried to score points

by trying to get the ball to touch the floor in the opponents’ court. We played hard but it was obvious we

needed more training.

I enjoyed the first day of training and it was great working out with other team members. Coach Jackson

even spoke to me personally. 36| He also said that my height would definitely be an advantage in

this sport. He wanted me to give it a shot in the school volleyball team. 37|

I have talked to my parents about this and they encourage me to go for it. My mother thinks this could

be a great opportunity to gain new experience and make new friends. 38| I want to see how far I can

go with this. Plus, I have always been a fan of sports. 39| I might not have enough time for my

homework and revision once I start training with the group.

Instead of giving up, I spent some time doing research on how to manage my time better. I found out

my answers. 40| And if I follow my timetable and do things the right way, I will be fine. I think this will

be a good experience for me.

A. He invited me train with them for the rest of the year.

B. I think my mother is right.
C. Mother was worried about me.
D. Six players on one side and six on the other side.
E. I need a timetable.
F. He thought I had the talent to be a great volleyball player.
G. He does not like me.
H. However, I wonder what would happen to my education.
