For 3,000 years, Mongolians have lived in the rural areas, adopting a pastoral way of life, moving in the
search of new pastures. They depend largely on their livestock for a living and sustain themselves with what
they can get from the land. Today, approximately half of Mongolia’s population is still roaming the vast plains
living in the ger and moving their campings several timesa year. Nomadic life thrives in summer and survives
in winter. When temperatures are warm, they work hard on their farms to get milk and make airag, consuming
meat from their sheeps and goats. Once winter comes, temperatures dip extremely low and they stay indoors
and survive on horse meat.
With the rise of technology, changes in the Mongolian nomadic lifestyle are almost inevitable. While they
still lead their lifestyle as pastoral herders, many use motorbikes to herd cattle and horses. To move their
homes, trucks have taken the place of ox carts. Solar panels are also becoming an addition to the ger, giving
them access to electricity without being confined to one place. The nomads use solar energy to power television
sets and mobile phones.

Read the text carefully, then answer the questions.
Many people enjoy living in a big city because they think life is more exciting there. However, I come from
a small village and in my view, there are lots of benefits. The main reason I prefer village life is because it’s
very quiet, so I always feel calm when I’m here. Another reason is that the air is so fresh and clean. We have
more green spaces and bigger gardens, too. In addition, I think the people here are friendlier. Personally, I’m
interested in wildlife photography, so the countryside is perfect for me.
The only downside is transport. I have an early start for a long Journey to school in Faro and the school bus
is always stopping to pick up more people. Also, it’s boring sometimes, but I enjoy chatting to my friends.
Fortunately, I’m learning to ride a moped. On balance, I disagree that city life is better, as I think my village
lifestyle is healthier and more relaxing. In spite of that, some of my friends couldn’t cope with life in the
country, so it comes down to personal opinion.

Read the essay then choose the correct answers. A Harvest Scene . It was the middle of April. I had a chance to go to my village. The fields for miles around were full of yellow ripened crop of wheat. The fields waved in the gentle breeze. The air was full of peculiar scent. The scenery all round was most picturesque. The farmer's joy knew no bounds. He sang and danced with joy at the sight of a bumper crop . The next day was the harvesting day. There was bustle and activity on all sides. The farmers with sickles and scythes in their hands set out to reap the ripe crop. They sang and danced to the beating of drums. They were mad with joy. They sat in a line at one end of the field. They reaped and reaped till it was noon. The drummers went on beating the drums. At noon they stopped. They rested for a while and had their lunch. It consisted of chapattis with glassfuls of clarified butter and country-sugar. After a little nap, they again set to work. They vied with one another in the output of their work. They were so happy at the prospect of a rich harvest that they knew no fatigue. They toiled from morn till night yet never felt bored. As the sun set, the harvested crop was bound into sheaves. They were carried and stored in a safe place. The harvesting went on for a number of days. The farmers were very generous of hand. They gave freely to all who came to them for a handful of stalks. They were intensely happy at the fruit of their honest and diligent labour. They did not send away anybody empty-handed. They obliged one and all whether watermen, labourers, menials or beggars. The harvesting time is a hectic time for the farmers They are busy day and night. They know no rest. All hands are required. All young, and old men and women, are put to the job. There is a race against time. The harvest must be brought home in the shortest possible time for who knows the rains may come and spoil the whole show. The farmers bend all their energies to the task to avoid all risks. A harvesting scene is a rare scene. It is indeed a sight to see the farmers singing dancing out of spontaneous joy. The time that wheat is yellow ripened is A. in the late April B. in the middle of April C. in May D. in the early April
