Read the text about an artist. Choose the correct answer: A, B, or C.

          You can’t buy a drawing by Julian Beever and you can’t see his work in a gallery or museum. Julian makes his amazing pictures on the pavements of city streets. People have called him “the Pavement Picasso” and perhaps you have seen his pictures on the Internet.

          Julian has made hundreds of pieces of “pavement art” in different countries - in many parts of Europe and also in the USA, Australia, Japan, Argentina, and Brazil.

          His drawings can take three or four days to finish. But because he draws with chalk, the drawings only stay for a short time. When people walk on them or when it rains, they quickly disappear. For Julian, this isn’t a problem. The drawings survive in the photos he has taken, and this is the most important thing for him.

          Julian’s fame hasn’t come from experts in the art world, but from the Internet. “The reason why my work has become well known is because people like it and they’ve sent it to each other on the Internet,” he says. “So I know that what I do is popular.”

          Julian Beever is from Leicestershire in England, but he now lives in Belgium.

The Internet allows businesses to communicate with customers and workers in any part of the world for the cost of a local telephone call. Email allows users to send documents, pictures and other data from one part of the world to another in at least 5 minutes. The Internet is providing a lot of new business opportunities. Some businesses are advertising their products on the Internet. People can use the Internet to do shopping. This saves a lot of time. It is possible to use the Internet for education-students may connect with their teachers from home to send or receive email or talk their problems through ‘on-line’ rather than attend a class.

When we feel anxious, we often give ourselves negative messages like: “I can’t do this”,

When you are in Hong Kong, you can go about by taxi, by tram, by bus, or by underground. I myself prefer the underground because it is fast, easy and cheap. There are many trams and buses in Hong Kong, and one cannot drive along the road quickly and without many stops. The underground is therefore usually quicker than taxis or buses. If you do not know Hong Kong very well, it is very difficult to find the bus you want. You can take a taxi, but it is more expensive than the underground or a bus. On the underground you find good maps that tell you the names of the stations and show you how to get to them, so that it is easy to find your way.
