TEST 16

Man:   As you all know, Mr. Snow is leaving next month, at the end of the spring term. Unfortunately he decided not to stay until next year. (6) He is now 60 years old and he would like to stop teaching before he is 65.

We know that he is popular with our students and we would like to buy him a leaving present. If we collect enough money, we can buy him something really nice. (7) We have already collected £60, but we need at least £40 more to make a total of £100. Someone suggested buying a clock, and someone else suggested a watch. But (8) we decided to buy him a nice DVD player instead, because he loves watching films! Your teachers will collect money for Mr. Snow in the school cafeteria after lessons, next Friday.

We finish lessons at midday, on Friday 15th April. (9) On Saturday 16th we will meet at school at around 5.30 pm to prepare for the party. (10) The party starts at 7 in the evening. Then a student will give him the present. I hope all our teachers and some parents will be there and of course, all of you!

8 Thursday   9 Pink   10 cycling

Man:   (6) We have changed the day of our sports day this year. This is because we want to include swimming events and our new swimming pool won’t be ready until June 4th. (6) The new date will be Friday, June 14th. I think this will be much better for everybody.

I hope that all of you will be interested in doing something for our sports day. (7) Please put your name on the events list, if you would like to take part. (7) The list will be put on the wall beside the library (8) until Thursday. (9) If you have any questions, Miss Pink, that’s P I N K, our sports teacher, will be available to answer them during lunch break, on Monday. We will have many of our usual events, such as a volleyball match and, of course, a football match. However, (10) this year we will also have one more new event. This is a cycling race in which teachers can take part. It will be at the end of the day, before prizes are given to the winners of each race.

Man:   Welcome to the Museum of the Natural World. I know most of you are interested in the new dinosaur exhibition, so I will take you there first. The tour will take 1 hour. Afterwards, you can look at the rainforest and countryside exhibitions by yourselves. (6) Don’t forget that your coach leaves at 11 am, so you have 3 hours, in total, for your visit. (7) There are guidebooks for sale at the information desk. (8) Please remember, you cannot take photographs in the museum. Of course, you may write down information in your notebooks if you like.

Next year we will have a new exhibition on technology and the natural world. We were hoping to have it ready by March 13th. Unfortunately, it will now open a month later, on April 12th, (9) a week before the school holidays, which start on April 20th. We hope you can visit us again, then! When you leave the museum today, (10) please remember to collect your coats from the entrance hall.
