KEYS – ENGLISH 7
TEST 1

Audio for question 1-4:
My name is Mark and my hobby is reading comics. I enjoy reading comics because the
stories are easy to understand and entertaining. I don't have much free time, so I only read a few
pages before I go to bed. Sometimes, I go to the bookstore near my house with my best friend, Leo,
to buy new comics. I have a collection of comics in my bedroom. My sister, Katy doesn't like
reading. Photography is her favorite hobby. She usually takes photos in our back garden or in the
park opposite our house. She loves taking photos of birds and animals.
Audio for question 5-8:
Hello, everyone. I'm Doctor Brown and today I want to talk to you about how to prepare yourself
for a good night's sleep. It's important to get at least eight hours of sleep each night, but lots of
teenagers find it difficult to fall asleep before eleven o'clock at night. One study found that only
fifteen percent of teenagers get enough sleep. So, what can you do to get more sleep? Well, you
shouldn't eat or exercise for a few hours before bed. You should also do something to relax before
you go to bed, like reading a book. If you read a book before going to sleep, then you will sleep
better than if you watch TV or play online games.
