MEETING A FRIEND
Last year I had a most enjoyable experience when I met somebody I had been writing to
(26)
over seven years. When I was about twelve years old one of the teachers at
school asked (27)
anyone wanted to have an English pen-friend. I had recently
begun learning English and as I was (28)
it rather difficult I thought this might
help me. A few weeks (29)
the teacher gave me the address of a boy who lived in
Leeds. We began to write to (30)
straight away and usually exchanged
letters about (31)
a month. We often wrote that we would like (32)
but, unfortunately,
this was never possible. (33)
, last year I was sent on a two-week course in London by
my firm. There was a great deal of work to do and I did not have (34)
time free but
on the second weekend my friend came to see me. I wondered if we would really like each other
when we met. Fortunately, there was absolutely nothing to worry (35)
, we had
been writing for so long that it was like meeting an old friend. We had a meal together and spent
the whole of the day talking about our shared interests. I hope we will be able to meet again
soon.

2. Read the passage and choose the best answer A, B, C or D to each of the following
questions. In many old cities in Europe, there are narrow twisting roads with many shops
huddling together along the two sides. These commercial places are not so modern and
convenient as those called shopping centers in modern cities, especially in the suburbs of the big
cities in the United States.
Shopping centers have developed rapidly because of the shift of the population to the
suburbs, the growing use of and dependence upon the automobile and the heavy traffic in
downtown areas.
A shopping center is a large group of stores facing a huge central enclosed mall which
may be covered, heated and air-conditioned. A shopping center is also surrounded by a parking
area with space for thousands of cars.
We can buy all kinds of food and get anything we need in a shopping center. Unlike a
supermarket, where groceries are chiefly sold, a shopping center provides us with all services
besides food. We can get our heir cut, eyes examined, clothes washed; we can book our tickets
for a world tour and even enroll in special classes.
Shopping centers are, therefore, very convenient for customers, but they lack the 'sense
of closeness' as felt in older commercial center.

.
A. the fast-growing prosperity of suburban people.
B. the increased use of the automobile.
C. the growing use of heavy cars in bug cities.
D. the shift of the population to downtown areas.
37. A shopping center is a large group of stores facing a huge central mall which is
.
A. narrow and winding.
B. very crowded with automobiles.
C. used as a store-house for heaters and conditioners.
D. shaded and comfortable.
38. American shopping centers are especially established in the suburbs because
.
A. the customers want to avoid the heavy traffic in downtown areas.
B. the traffic is heavier in the suburbs than in the downtown areas.
C. there are few people moving from the downtown areas to the neighboring regions.

D. the streets in the downtown areas are so narrow and twisting.
39. Customers can't find the 'sense of closeness' in a modern shopping center because
.
A. all the items in the stores are very expensive.
B. the shopkeepers are not very cordial.
C. it is too modern and conventional.
D. they worry too much about the safety of their cars.

Disney World was constructed a decade ago on 27,400 acres of partially swamp land in

The park opens at 9 a.m. and shuts down at various hours, depending upon the time of
year- six, nine, or midnight. On a busy day as many as 90,000 visitors may be in the park, but
