 IV. READING - GUIDED CLOZE

From question 11 to question 20

Music is universal – it is produced by all cultures. Some scientists believe that music came before
speech and (11) as a development of mating calls. In fact, there is one theory that the (12)
languages were chanted or sung rather than spoken. Indeed, in some cultures, music is a
form of (13) history. The Aboriginal Australians, for example, use music as a means to (14) on
stories of the land and spirits to the next (15) .

New evidence suggests that music does not just satisfy the feel-good factor, but it is also good for the
brain. A study of intellectually (16) children showed that they could recall more information after it
was given to them in a song than after it was read to them as a story.

Researchers also report that people (17) better on a standard intelligence test after listening to
Mozart. The so-called ‘Mozart effect’, has also been (18) by findings that rats brought up on Mozart
run faster through a complex network of paths or passages, (19) as a maze. Overall, it seems that in
most instances people who suffer from any form of mental (20) benefit from listening to music.

V. READING COMPREHENSION
From question 21 to question 28

A. Bristol balloons invite you to fulfill the ambition of a lifetime. Experience a bird’s-eye view of
the countryside, while slowly drifting across the landscape, enjoying the magnificent sport of hot-
air ballooning.

B. For a unique birthday present, an anniversary gift or a celebration, a flight in a balloon provides the
perfect answer. You can even use our gift vouchers as an unusual and exciting present. Entertaining
your clients or staff in a balloon provides something completely different.

C. Our aim is to give everyone a pleasant and enjoyable flight. Flights are available throughout the year
and last for at least one hour. Allow four hours for the whole adventure. We lift off before sunset or
soon after dawn because the winds are usually light at these times. We do not fly if it is raining or very
windy.

D. Ballooning is the art of making pleasant and unexpected discoveries. We are dependent on the
wind, so no two flights are ever exactly the same. The average distance we travel is ten miles, affording
you views of the city and the surrounding scenery.

E. Many of our passengers are happy just to relax and enjoy the view and the incredible sense of peace
that being aloft in a balloon provides. A balloon is a brilliant platform for photography. You might like
to bring a camera or a camcorder!

F. For your safety and comfort, we suggest you wear long trousers and long sleeves, and preferably
natural fibers, like wool or cotton, which will keep you warmer than artificial ones. The weather can
change very quickly, so even on a warm, sunny day bring a waterproof jacket. Something like a sailing
jacket or a skiing jacket is ideal. Wear warm, waterproof footwear, and bring a hat if your hair is a bit
thin on top. It will protect you from the heat of the burners.

G. Chilled champagne or orange juice is served with our compliments. Each passenger receives a
commemorative flight certificate. Our ground crew who are in radio contact with the balloon meet us
on landing and will return you to the departure point if required.

H.We have experience in operating advertising balloons in over fourteen different countries. If you
have enjoyed your flight so much that you want to take up a sport yourself, we can sell you the latest
equipment and we can even train you to fly your own balloon.
