IX. Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, or D to indicate the correct answer to each of the questions.
 One way of training for your future occupation in Germany is by pursuing a dual vocational training programme. Such programmes offer plenty of opportunity for on-the-job training and work experience. Programmes usually last between two and three and a half years and comprise theoretical as well as practical elements. You will spend one or two days a week, or several weeks at once, at a vocational school where you will acquire the theoretical knowledge that you will need in your future occupation. The rest of the time will be spent at a company. There you get to apply your newly acquired knowledge in practice, for example by learning to operate machinery. You will get to know what your company does, learn how it operates and find out if you can see yourself working there after completing your training.
 This combination of theory and practice gives you a real head start into your job: by the time you have completed your training, you will not only have the required technical knowledge, but you will also have hands-on experience in your job. There are around 350 officially recognised training programmes in Germany, so chances are good that one of them will suit your interests and talents. You can find out which one that might be by visiting one of the jobs and vocational training fairs which are organised in many German cities at different times in the year.
 Employment prospects for students who have completed a dual vocational training programme are very good. This is one of the reasons why this kind of training is very popular with young Germans: around two thirds of all students leaving school go on to start a vocational training programme.

D. These programmes provide you with both theoretical knowledge and practical working experience. 
4. The word "hands-on” in the second paragraph is closest in meaning to.......

C. less than a third 	D. about 70%
X. Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, or D to indicate the correct answer to each of the questions.
 Do you think education is better now than it was in your grandparents' time? Many older people in the UK believe the opposite. "Schools were better in our day,” they complain.
 "There isn't enough discipline these days. Kids don't work as hard as we did, either. The syllabus isn't as challenging, so clever students aren't being stretched enough. They need to study things in greater depth. Exams are much, much easier now as well."
 Were schools better years ago? Some British teenagers travelled back in time to a 1950s boarding school. They got a big surprise! The first shock came when the teenagers met their new teachers. Dressed in traditional black gowns, they look so frosty and uncaring! They were really authoritarian, too, so anyone caught breaking the rules - talking in classes, mucking about in the playground or playing truant - was in big trouble! Punishments included writing 'lines' or staying after class to do detention. The naughtiest kids were expelled. 
 Things were just as bad after class. At meal times the students had to endure a diet of plain, no-nonsense, healthy food. Homework was obligatory and it took ages! Copying essays off the Internet wasn't an option, as personal computers didn't exist in the 1950s!
 At the end of 'term' everyone sat 1950s-style exams. The old exams were much longer than their twenty-first century equivalents and involved learning huge amounts of facts by heart. History papers were all dates and battles. Maths papers were trickier, too; calculators weren't around in the 1950s, so the students had to memorise multiplication tables and master long division. Our candidates found this really difficult.
 The exam results surprised a lot of people. Students predicted to do well in their real-life, twenty-first century exams often got low grades in the 1950s exams. Does this prove modern exams are too easy? Do twenty-first century kids rely too much on modern technology, like calculators and computers?
 The TV series of That'll teach 'em! focused on a 1960s vocational school. UK school-kids study a range of academic subjects these days. But in the 1960s, children judged to be less 'able' went to vocational schools. These helped them learn job skills. Boys studied subjects like metalwork, woodwork or gardening. In some classes, they even learned how to milk goats! The girls' timetables included secretarial skills. They also learned to cook, clean and sew - probably not much fun for most girls.
111. What criticism is sometimes made about modern education in the first paragraph?
A. Teachers are strict enough. 	B . The syllabus is out of date.
C. There's too much stress on exams. 	D. The teaching methods are not good enough.
112. The word "authoritarian” in the second paragraph is closest in meaning to.......
A. inexperienced 	B. impolite C. unreasonable D. strict
113. Which of the following statements is TRUE about the food the students ate at school?
A. It wasn't cooked properly. 	B. It wasn't delicious.
C. It wasn't nutritious. 	D. There wasn't much of it.
114. The word "obligatory" in the third paragraph is closest in meaning to.......
A. compulsory 	B. difficult 	C. long D. complicated
115. According to the passage, how did exams in the 1950s differ from those in the twenty-first century?
A They covered more subjects. 	B. It took students less time to do them.
C. There was more to remember. 	D. They were less difficult.
116. What was surprising about the students' results after taking the 1950s-style exams?
