ANGOL ÍRÁSBELI ÉRETTSÉGI-FELVÉTELI FELADATSOR 1995. A vizsga időbeosztása: A) Feleletválasztós teszt (segédeszköz nem használható): 110 perc B) Fogalmazás (szótár használható): 70 perc A vizsgázó a következő anyagokat kapja kézhez: Tesztfüzet (a jelen füzet) – nem kell beadni! Ezen vannak a tesztkérdések és az olvasás-megértés szövegei. A 41-60 kérdésekben a változatok közül a helytelent kell kiválasztani: ez azért fontos, mert méri a jelölt nyelvi tudatosságát, a nyelvi alternatívák ismeretét. 1. A tesztfüzet végére tájékoztatásul odamásoltuk a fogalmazáshoz adott válaszlevelet, hogy a vizsga után a vizsgázónak módja legyen megoldásán elgondolkodni. A tesztfüzetre a vizsgázó szabadon jegyzetelhet, s a vizsga végezetével hazaviheti. Ezt tehát nem kell beadni 2. Fogalmazási feladat (nagy alakú, dupla ív) – be kell adni! Ezen adjuk meg a fogalmazási feladatot, a válaszlevelet, mely “elé” Önnek az eredeti

levelet kell megírnia. Ugyanitt helyet biztosítottunk a piszkozat számára. (Ha szükséges, kérhet még külön piszkozatpapírt) 3. Válaszlapok – be kell adni! – “Tesztválaszlap” (hálórács a tesztmegoldásokhoz). Aki e vizsgával érettségizik is, tesztmegoldását másolja rá egy másik “Tesztválaszlap”-ra, mely a középiskolához kerül. – Fogalmazástisztázat: erre írja fogalmazásának tisztázatát. Aki e vizsgával érettségizik is, használja az indigós lapokat. Ügyeljen az indigó helyes állására! Az eredetit a felsőoktatási intézmény, a másolatot a középiskola kapja.

finally gave (12) the inevitable and a charming little kitten moved into my life. I called him Fred, and he has lived with me ever since. At about seven o’clock every morning, (13) my flat and set off to go to work, I can see Fred, now a large, handsome and rather plump cat, gazing at me through the window. He never looks worried or unhappy, but I always feel a bit guilty, because I don’t usually get back until six or seven in the evening, sometimes even later, and he has to spend the whole day on his own. Poor Fred, I’m afraid he must (14) . I often wonder what he does all day I imagine him sitting in the window, wondering if (15) back. Then he probably jumps down from the window sill and gives the kitchen a thorough going over, to see whether I’ve left (16) for him to eat. Then he checks out the rest of the flat, looking for something interesting to play with. He’s very good

(17) games and has distinct artistic tendencies: last week he found (18) toilet paper and decorated the whole flat with it. It took me hours to clear up the mess, and I still keep finding scraps of pink paper in unexpected places. When he’s tired of playing, he probably sits down and has (19) and then, I think, he probably sleeps for most of the day. When I get home in the evening I can sometimes see him through the window, fast asleep in my armchair.

Mark your answers on the Answer Sheet in the following way: (A) = TRUE (B) = NOT STATED (C) FALSE A teacher has been awarded almost Ł160 000 compensation for injuries and trauma caused in an assault by a teenage pupil. The size of the award reflects the premature ending by 12 years of the teacher’s career because of the effects of the attack. The incident happened four years ago

when the master, now 52, went to the aid of a woman colleague who was being assaulted by a teenager in her class at a young offenders’ institute on Tyneside. The mathematics teacher, who has not been named, was injured when the pupil turned on him during the scuffle. Gerry Bartlett, legal officer for the National Association of Schoolmasters and Union of Women Teachers, said: “He’s a very angry, bitter man. He was walking along the corridor when he saw a 16-year-old male physically and verbally harassing a female colleague and he intervened to prevent injury being caused. During that intervention his arm was very severely injured, requiring surgery and he lost the use of it. There was also a degree of post-traumatic stress which made it very difficult for him to return to the classroom.’ 81. A mathematics teacher was severely injured while trying to rescue a colleague who was being assaulted 82. The size of the award reflects the number of years he has spent teaching in the

school 83. He gave up his job for physical and psychological reasons 84. He lost his arm in the incident 85. The attacker suffered no injuries 2. Read the text and do the same as above A hill walker who went missing in Glencoe on Friday in appalling weather was believed to be spending a third night out in the open last night. About 100 mountain rescuers braved blizzards and avalanches for nine hours yesterday but failed to find him. Allan Sands, 24, from Shawlands, Glasgow, had been walking in White Corries, near Glencoe. Experienced mountaineers said no one should have been walking in the Scottish hills at the weekend after warnings were given of severe avalanche activity. Dozens ignored the alert and took to the hills, giving mountain rescue teams one of their busiest weekends of the year. 86. Allan Sands seems to have disappeared four days ago 87. A large search party looked for him in severe weather conditions 88. Experienced climbers denied that Mr Sands went to the Scottish

Hills at the weekend 89. Some climbers set off at the weekend in spite of the warning 90. This is the longest time anybody has been missing in the area 3. Read the text below, then answer questions about it My hotel was called the Hotel des Trois Moineaux. It was a dark, rickety warren of five storeys, cut up by wooden partitions into forty rooms. The rooms were small and dirty, for there was no maid, and Madame F, the patronne, had no time to do any sweeping. The walls were as thin as matchwood, and to hide the cracks they had been covered with layer after layer of pink paper, which had come loose and housed innumerable bugs. Near the ceiling long lines of bugs marched all day like columns of soldiers, and at night came down ravenously hungry, so that one had to get up every few hours and kill them in hecatombs. Sometimes when the bugs got too bad one used to burn sulphur and drive them into the next room; whereupon the lodger next door would retort by having his room sulphured, and

drive the bugs back. It was a dirty place, but homelike, for Madame F. and her husband were good sorts The rent of the rooms varied between thirty and fifty francs a week. The lodgers were a floating population, largely foreigners, who used to turn up without luggage, stay a week and then disappear again. They were of every trade – cobblers, bricklayers, stonemasons, navies, students, prostitutes, rag-pickers. Some of them were fantastically poor In one of the attics there was a Bulgarian student who made fancy shoes for the American market. From six to twelve he sat on his bed, making a dozen pairs of shoes and earning thirty-five francs; the rest of the day he attended lectures at the Sorbonne. In another room lived a Russian woman and her son, who called himself an artist. The mother worked sixteen hours a day, darning socks at twenty-five centimes a sock, while the son, decently dressed, loafed in the Montparnasse cafés. One room was let to two different lodgers, one a day

worker and the other a night worker. In another room a widower shared the same bed with his two grown-up daughters, both suffering from tuberculosis. There were eccentric characters at the hotel. The Rougiers, for instance, were an old ragged, dwarfish couple who plied an extraordinary trade. They used to sell postcards on the Boulevard St Michel The curious thing was that the postcards were sold in sealed packets as pornographic ones, but were actually photographs of castles on the Loire; the buyers didn’t discover this till too late, and of course never complained. The Rougiers earned about a hundred francs a week and by strict economy managed to be always half starved and half drunk. The filth of their room was such that one could smell it on the floor below. According to Madame F, neither of the Rougiers had taken off their clothes for four years. Answer the following questions by marking which of the four answers (A, B, C or D) is TRUE ACCORDING TO THE TEXT. There is only one

PART B – COMPOSITION (70 minutes; dictionaries may be used) Imagine you are Bobo, a young Hungarian person – male or female, as you prefer – writing to a friend, Sally. Sally’s answer is printed on

the next page. Write Bobo’s original letter, using a similar style and making sure you mention all the information contained in her answer. Ideally, your letter should be between 300-450 words long. Please note that in your original letter you probably describe something, tell her about an event and propose something. You also make a request You may write your draft and notes the space provided below and on the facing page. However, you must write your FINAL SOLUTION on the separate sheets provided. REMEMBER THAT YOU ARE NOT ANSERING SALL’S LETTER!! ., Baross u 105 30 March 1995 Dear Sally, HERE IS THE PLACE OF YOUR LETTER And here is Sally’s answer: 221B, Baker Street London 30 April 1995 Dear Bobo, I’m sorry – I should have written some time ago. I too have been working hard for my examinations, staying up late at night and hardly ever going out for walks. But it’s over now, and I can finally enjoy a bit of a rest, and think of writing letters. Well, I’m sorry to

hear about how you lost the championship. After all that hard training it must have been a disappointment. And in the very last minute of the last game! But I’m sure your team did its best and you can really be proud of yourselves. Here’s some news to cheer you up. Your English is improving from letter to letter! You send me excellent reports on current affairs in Hungary, and in very good English. I did enjoy your description of changes to the changes to your home town. Yes, it is a pity that there is so much litter about, but I wonder if your proposals on how to clean up the city are very practical. Of course your brother can stay with us for a few days when he comes over in summer. In fact, any member of your family is welcome, at almost any time, provided you tell me the dates so that I can arrange everything. Please let me know as soon as possible. Just in case, since I might be away for some time in August, my sister’s phone number is 987 23 16 10. Give my regards to

everyone I know. Best wishes, Sally, ANGOL ÍRÁSBELI ÉRETTSÉGI-FELVÉTELI FELADATSOR MEGOLDÁSOK 1995.

Minden kérdésnek csak egy helyes megoldása van; ha a vizsgázó egynél több X-et tett ugyanahhoz a kérdéshez, az mindenképpen rossz megoldásnak számít. Ilyenkor az illető kérdés sorát piros vonallal húzzuk át Azok

a vizsgázók, akik a válaszlapjukon jelezték, hogy “non-Hugnarian speaker”, a 71-80. kérdések átugorhatják, ilyen esetekben a 61-70. kérdésekre kapott pontszámukat megduplázzuk Ezeknek a dolgozatoknak az 1. oldalán feltűnően jelezzük, hogy “non-Hungarian speaker” A szóbeli vizsgán az elnök feladata meggyőződni, hogy a felmentés indokolt. Csak olyan jelölteknél fogadható el felmentés, akik nem magyarnyelvű gimnáziumban érettségiztek. PART B – Fogalmazás (30 pont) A fogalmazásban megadott szempontok alapján kell levelet írni. A feladatban a vizsgázó egy válaszlevelet talál, mely “elé” neki az eredeti levelet kell megírnia úgy, hogy abban felvesse mindazokat a témákat, melyre a válasz utal. A fogalmazás ideálisan 300-450 szavas, de ennél hosszabb vagy rövidebb is lehet jó ill. rossz megoldás: a lényeg nem a terjedelem, hanem a feladat kielégítő teljesítése (azaz a sikeres kommunikáció), valamint a nyelvtani,

szókincsbeli és helyesírási pontosság. Magyarán: ha valaki ügyesen kerüli a számára nehéz nyelvtani szerkezeteket vagy szókincset, és egyszerűen, de kevés hibával “végiglavíroz” a szövegen, azt ebben a feladatban jobban díjazzuk, mint ha valaki folyton a számára túl nehéz szerkezetekkel, szavakkal próbálkozik, melyekbe rendre beletörik a bicskája. A fogalmazás javítási útmutatóját lásd mellékelve. Marking instructions This part of the test is marked according to the set of criteria below. The criteria comprise 11 questions which specify the requirements in terms of – style/vocabulary, – structures/spelling, and – content. In order to ensure that all candidates are treated fairly and as objectively as possible, markers are advised not to give global marks, but to consider each criterion separately and add up the total afterwards.

EGY 27 VIZSGAPONTOS FOGALMAZÁS Budapest, Baross u. 105 30 March 1995 Dear Sally I haven’t heard from you for quite a while, I hope there’s nothing the matter with you. I have been

studying very hard lately as I am talking university entrance exams this week. I’ve been also busy working so I find that I have hardly any free time nowadays. Imagine! We’ve lost the basketball championship. We were so disappointed because we had trained really hard and were full of expectations. For two years us had been having three hours of training every day and matches every weekend. Our coach (had) told us that he had never had a better team and that we were sure to win the championship. At first we thought we was right because we were in the lead for the first five days of the competition. But on the last day two of our best players ere hurt in a car accident and of course the couldn’t play. We had only one game to play and thought we would be alright but our opponents were so skilled that they managed to defeat us by scoring hole points in the very last minute of the game. I’m sure you can imagine our disappointment. Everybody is so depressed that we haven’t been

training since Well, I suppose that’s enough of bad news, so I’ll write about something nice now. I’m sure you remember that I told you how awful the state of roads in my home town was. Well, it’s all history now The new mayor commissioned a company called Dodi & Cini Road Repairs to build new roads throughout the town. Now it all looks beautiful. The old roads were all cracked, they were just horrid The only other thing that I think needs sorting out now is our bitter problem. There’s so much rubbish lying around everywhere. I wish we could clean it up somehow I thought that organizing rubbish collecting competitions right solve the problem. What do you think? By the way, my brother is going to England for 2 weeks in the summer. He’s very keen to meet you, so I wonder if he could stay with you for a couple of days. I wish I could go with him Maybe next year I look forward to hearing from you. Lots of love, Ildikó ANSWER SHEET A B 1. D X 2. X 3. 4. C X X

After reading the text below, decide whether the statements that follow are, according to the text, TRUE, FALSE or NOT STATED (that is, the text gives no information about the statement). Mark your answer on the Answer Sheet in the following way: (A) = TRUE (B) = FALSE (C) = NOT STATED A man was arrested after driving 14 miles the wrong way along a motorway with only three wheels on his car. The 65-year-old ignored drivers flashing their lights and

police cars as he travelled along the M4 early yesterday with sparks flying from the front wheel hub. The Volkswagen Jetta was finally halted outside Reading when police laid spikes across the motorway to puncture the other three tyres. The driver, from Neasden, northwest London, then crashed into the back of a police car. He was arrested on suspicion of being unfit to drive through drink or drugs and taken to Maidenhead police station. 81. The driver was arrested near Neasden 82. He didnt realise that one of his wheels was missing 83. Other drivers tried to warn him that he was on the wrong side of the motorway 84. Police cars tried to stop him by firing sparks from their front wheel hubs 85. It is unlikely that he had been drinking or taking drugs Text 2. Read the text and do the same as above The father of a French girl feared abducted by a lorry driver has travelled to Britain to help detective hunt for his daughter amid growing concern that she may have been murdered. Bernard

Figard, a farmer, has helped police draw up a profile of his daughter Celine, 19, who disappeared last week in New Forest, Hampshire, after hitching a lift. 86. Bernard Figard had no reason to worry about his daughter 87. Celine left home without her fathers knowledge 88. Celine was probably given a lift by a lorry driver 89. People think it unlikely that she has been murdered 90. Bernard Figard went to England to give information about his daughter Text 3. Read the text below, then answer questions about it I work for cats. That was how Mrs Bond introduced herself on my first visit, gripping my hand firmly and thrusting out her jaw defiantly. She was a big woman with a strong face and a commanding presence and I wouldnt have argued with her anyway, so I nodded gravely as though I fully understood and agreed, and allowed her to lead me into the house. I saw at once what she meant. The big kitchen-living-room had been completely given over to cats There were cats on the sofas and chairs

and spilling in cascades on to the floor, cats sitting in rows along the window sills and right in the middle of it all, little Mr Bond, pallid, wispy-moustached, in his shirt sleeves reading as newspaper. It was a scene which was going to become very familiar. Some of the cats were obviously uncastrated Toms because the atmosphere was vibrant with their distinctive smell - a fierce pungency which overwhelmed even the sickly wisps from the big saucepans of cat food bubbling on the stove. And Mr Bond was always there, always in his shirt sleeves and reading his paper, a lonely little island in a sea of cats. I was never able to find out his attitude to cats - come to think of it he hardly ever said anything - but I had the impression he could take them or leave them. I had heard of the Bonds, of course. They were Londoners who for some obscure reason had picked on North Yorkshire for their retirement. They had bought an old house on the outskirts of Darrowby where they kept themselves

to themselves - and the cats. I had heard that Mrs Bond was in the habit of taking in strays and feeding them and giving them a home if they wanted it and this had predisposed me in her favour, because in my experience the unfortunate animals seemed to be fair game for every kind of cruelty and neglect. They shot cats, threw things at them, starved them and set their dogs on them for fun. It was good to see somebody taking their side. Now answer these questions by marking which of the four answers is (A, B, C or D) TRUE according to the text. There is only one right answer! 91. From the extract we learn that (A) the author had been to the Bonds before. (B) this was the only time the author had visited the Bonds. (C) this was the first of the authors numerous visits to the Bonds. (D) the author didnt intend to visit the Bonds again. 92. Mrs Bond seems to be (A) a self-assured person. (B) a fragile woman. (C) an agreeable person. (D) fond of arguments. 93. When she said "I

work for cats" Mrs Bond probably meant that she (A) did a meaningless job. (B) worked for a cat food company. (C) spent her time looking after cats. (D) officially looked after homeless animals. 94. On hearing the above sentence, the author (A) understood immediately what Mrs Bond meant. (B) was somewhat puzzled. (C) agreed with Mrs Bond (D) felt like arguing with Mrs Bond 95. The downstairs area of the house (A) was not used by the Bonds any more. (B) smelled strongly of male cats. (C) made the author feel at home. (D) was in a mess because the cats had spilled and upset things. 96. The Bonds (A) spent most of the year in London. (B) disliked North Yorkshire for some unknown reason. (C) had no social life. (D) didnt talk to each other. 97. " but I had the impression he could take them or leave them" This refers to the authors opinion that Mr Bond (A) was the real driving force behind his wifes decisions. (B) found it easy to get used to the cats. (C) didnt have

much say about the number of cats in the house. (D) wasnt bothered by the house being full of cats. 98. Mr Bond seems to be (A) more significant-looking than his wife. (B) hostile to the author. (C) unemployed. (D) living in a world of his own. 99. The Bonds (A) also kept other animals. (B) didnt look after their cats properly. (C) were sometimes cruel to animals. (D) took in cats from the street. 100. On the whole, the author seems to (A) appreciate Mrs Bonds attitude. (B) be appalled by the Bonds way of life. (C) be indifferent towards Mrs Bond and her cats. (D) take sides with the cat-chasers. PART B - COMPOSITION (65 minutes; dictionaries may be used) Below is a readers letter from an imaginary newspaper. As you read it, you may find some details inaccurate Write a polite letter (of about 300 to 350 words) to the editor, explaining what you find inaccurate and offering more information. Here is the letter you decide to answer: Sir, Having read your enthusiastic article about

Hungary in your Sunday issue, I decided to offer some more realistic advice to the would-be visitor. Here it is If you insist on driving, be prepared for chaos on the roads. There is no speed limit in Hungary and most drivers are constantly drunk. (Some refuse to set out before drinking half a litre of vodka) As for Lake Balaton, its water is incredibly dirty and I found it unfit for swimming. They tell me that last year there were dead fish rotting all over the place, in the water and among the reeds, and the stench drove all foreign visitors away. You might hope to be consoled by food, but there again disappointment will await you. Hungarians use nothing but red pepper to flavour all their dishes. Beware of anything labelled a national dish which they recommend with great warmth, so that they can watch you choke and bring up whatever youve managed to force down. My advice, then, is this. Go by air or rail (if you must), take your own food and stay as briefly as possible By the

way, Budapest is a nice city, offering some interesting shows even in summer. Yours sincerely, Dr Frank Illwilled ANGOL ÍRÁSBELI ÉRETTSÉGI-FELVÉTELI FELADATSOR MEGOLDÁSOK 1996.

megjelent másik olvasói levélre reagál. A válaszlevelet a vizsgázónak úgy kell megírnia, hogy a másik levélben felvetett témák közül a legfontosabbakra (legalább háromra) reagáljon. A fogalmazás ideálisan 300-350 szavas, de ennél hosszabb vagy rövidebb is lehet jó, ill. rossz megoldás: a lényeg nem a terjedelem, hanem a feladat kielégítő teljesítése (azaz a sikeres kommunikáció), valamint a nyelvtani, szókincsbeli és helyesírási pontosság. A nyelvtani és lexikai pontosságot ebben a feladatban jobban díjazzuk, mint ha valaki folyton a számára túl nehéz szerkezetekkel, szavakkal próbálkozik, melyekbe rendre beletörik a bicskája.

Franks last letter, or rather his wife Veronicas last letter, for she did all the writing except at Christmas, had arrived in March. How did she explain five months silence? She hadnt been ill. She hadnt been what you could

call busy Nothing had happened to write to Australia about, that was the trouble. Shed been invited so many times to go and meet Franks family. Every year for the last ten years since had started making money out of his farm, Frank had invited her to visit them in Australia, all expenses paid, for as long as she chose to stay. Always she had replied "Well see But it never went further Sometimes she wondered if the people in the coloured photographs they kept sending existed at all. Was that Frank, now quite a lot heavier than that confident-looking boy of nineteen who had gone out to Australia so long ago? And his wife, Veronica, who had long red hair and a permanent smile - who was she? Mrs Doe had studied her photographs extremely closely and she still could get no idea. Her letters were warm and friendly enough but they were only words on paper. You couldnt tell from letters At least, Mrs Doe hoped you couldnt Heaven forbid that anyone should judge her by her painful letters.

Only her grandchildrens little messages had any real value. Surprisingly, the girl Carol, who was fourteen, did not write well and never had much to say, but the boy Paul, who was ten, was a good writer.

Frank and his family? (A) She doubted if they were as happy as they seemed. (B) She felt that they were all strangers to her (C) She wondered if the photographs were genuine. (D) She could no longer feel much interest in them. 94. What did Mrs Doe feel about her own letters to Frank and his family? (A) They were not as interesting as her grandchildrens to her. (B) They would have been better with some photographs. (C) They could not express what she really felt. (D) They sounded full of complaints. 95. Pauls letters to Mrs Doe (A) disappointed her because they were so short. (B) were not as interesting as his mothers. (C) made her more dissatisfied with her own letters. (D) were just a waste of time. 96. The reason why Mrs Doe "studied her photographs extremely closely" was that (A) she was suspicious that Carol had her hair dyed. (B) she hoped to find out more about Veronicas personality. (C) she could not believe her eyes. (D) looking at pictures was easier than writing

letters. 97. Frank went to Australia (A) at the age of fifteen. (B) and became a farmer. (C) to be able to pay for his mothers expenses. (D) to satisfy his adventurous spirit. 98. The sentence in the last paragraph Heaven forbid that anyone should judge her by her painful letters refers to (A) her granddaughter Carols letters. (B) the letters that Mrs. Doe herself had written (C) the letters of her daughter-in-law, whom Mrs. Doe met only once (D) the letters of her daughter-in-law, whom Mrs. Doe knew only from her letters 99.

PART A/II - READING COMPREHENSION

On reading the following passage (A/II.1) carefully, choose ONE of the four answers (A), (B), C and (D) to each of the questions or unfinished statements. Choose the answer which fits the text best A/II. 1 I was greeted by a doorman, perhaps hired for the occasion, then Birdwood and his wife said their tense hellos. The others were shiny and dressed up and alert. I was handed a card Four circles on it represented tables A red dot indicated my place. There was an intense watchfulness, guests listening hard but too nervous to hear clearly A mostly American gathering, it was first names and fixed smiles and bright, anxious eyes. In the mirror of the reception room I saw that I did not look the way I felt, and that I could pass for a guest at a dinner party. Apart from Laird Birdwood and Charmian, there was no one in the room whom I recognized A man standing next to me smiled. I spoke to him Deaf with anxiety, he did not hear me Another man began talking as I approached him, possessed by

an almost hysterical talkativeness. I could imagine all these reactions in passengers in a jammed elevator - claustrophobia, insecurity, fear. No one mentioned the Queen "What are you working on?" a man asked. I began to give him my tentative answer and was relieved to see that he was not listening. Birdwood was saying, "Actually very unexpected," to a woman who replied, "Perhaps better not to speculate." Were they talking about the royal visit? If so, there was nothing more, and yet I was sure this was on every guests mind. We were participants in a seance that was about to begin, too nervous anticipating what was to come to mention anything so obvious as the object of the seance. The drama of the moment made for the most frenetic and banal chit-chat. The English guests were the most talkative "I think the sun was trying to come out today." "Weve been extraordinarily lucky this winter." Drinks were brought around by servants who, less

nervous and better dressed than the guests, seemed slightly superior and almost mocking in the way they offered wine. "I say, what are you working on?" I was asked again by someone else. We stood, the men in black, the women in pretty gowns under the chandeliers, as the time of the seance drew on, and we were helpless, waiting for any sign that something definite was stirring. Our eyes were averted from the large door that was the entrance to the room: no one wanted to be caught peeking. "Not much," I said. No one listened, no one heard me. A man was saying, "Its always that way, isnt it?" and I had no idea what he was talking about. He was faced in my direction, still talking obscurely, still making no sense to me, nor was he looking at me. The room had gone very quiet. 51. According to the text, when the writer arrived most guests were (A) relaxed and chatting to one another. (B) ignoring each other. (C) very hungry. (D) uncomfortable and expectant. 52.

From the card the writer could tell that the dinner tables were (A) probably four in number. (B) for four people each. (C) arranged in groups of four. (D) arranged in a circle. 53. What the writer saw in the mirror (A) shocked him. (B) made him laugh. (C) made him feel different from the others. (D) made him feel better than before. 54. The writer talked to someone (A) who turned out to be deaf. (B) who he had met in the lift earlier. (C) who was too nervous to listen. (D) who didnt speak the same language. 55. Most of the people at the gathering were (A) English guests who were chatting excitedly. (B) Americans on first name terms who were enjoying themselves. (C) Americans on first name terms who looked stiff and uncomfortable. (D) English guests who were very well dressed. 56. Most of the conversation that the writer overheard was about (A) important matters. (B) trivial matters. (C) the person they were waiting for. (D) people who were not there. 57. The servants (A) looked

smarter than the guests. (B) made fun of the guests. (C) seemed less relaxed than the guests. (D) behaved in a modest way. 58. Most of the guests were (A) sitting down and chatting.

(C) a medium-sized, over-furnished room. (D) a medium-sized dining room. 60. `Nobody wanted to be caught peeking means that nobody wanted (A) to look at anybody else. (B) others to think they were looking to see if the visitor had arrived. (C) others to think they were looking to see if dinner was ready. (D) others to think they were being stared at. 61.

(D) dinner was about to begin. 62. Overall, this reception is

described by the author as (A) quite ordinary. (B) rather pleasant. (C) quite relaxing. (D) seemingly boring.

A/II. 2 The thumping heart, damp and sticky palms and strangled voice that come from acute shyness are a common accompaniment to self conscious adolescence. Most people have left

the extreme version behind by their mid20s But for those who do not, shyness can influence every area of life Dr Fred Orr is the author of a new self help book on how to conquer shyness. "I have spent thousands of hours working with people who are so self doubting, so self concerned that they dont do anything," he says. "They avoid job opportunities Social occasions and situations which they have to attend can be absolute agony." Dr Orrs book takes a practical approach but, like losing weight, conquering shyness cannot be achieved overnight. "Many people hope for a magical solution," he says "But having shaken hands, they then find they have nothing to say. Im saying - be prepared At the most basic level, reading the papers and seeing movies give you something to talk about." Judi James, 46, is a former model, now a corporate trainer and writer living in London. She describes herself as having been terminally shy. Ms James says her shyness

developed in childhood, as a way of getting away from the attention lavished on her. "I was an only child," she says "Every time I spoke, everybody listened Most kids have to fight for attention, but only children shy away from it. I was always at the back of the class, and not particularly good socially. Then you hear people describing you as shy, so it makes it difficult to get out of it." She has overcome her shyness, through ongoing hard work "Its a bit like a muscle You dont need to be born with it, but youve got to work it every day." 63. An increased heartbeat can be one of the physical signs of shyness 64. Most young adults become able to control their shyness to a manageable extent 65. People who are really shy never leave the house 66. At parties nobody wants to talk to a shy person 67. Judi James was ignored as a child 68. To defeat shyness one needs to make a continuous effort 69. According to Judi James, the more other people pointed out her

shyness, the easier it was for her to overcome it.

On reading the following passage (A/II. 3) carefully, decide, according to the text, whether statement (A) or (B) is true, or both of them are equally true (C), or neither of them is true (D). A/II. 3 The package tour to Ibiza left from Gatwick. When Pietro had gone to Italy with his mother they had flown from Heathrow, so this was the first time he had seen the thronging families of uncertain Britons preparing for abroad. He liked it much better than Heathrow There were pretty girls of about his age, slightly over-made-up, peering out from beneath the wings of their harassed families. Their fathers gave orders in loud voices to show they werent nervous and their mothers talked about the price of

refreshments, the whereabouts of toilets and tickets, the closeness of the hand baggage. The girls tried by their looks to disown their parents as they would later on the beach and in the discotheques; Pietro felt at an advantage having only a father to shrug off. They were in an apartment in a new block about two hundred yards back from the beach. Pietro was sharing a room with his father, which had its drawbacks for both of them. The old mans idea of a good morning was to go to the beach early to get a favourable spot, erect a sunshade and read a book on etymology. Pietro found getting up before ten was a torture. He liked to go to the beach about eleven with a book recommended by Mr Maxwell at the US Collegiate, sunbathe for an hour, swim vigorously, open the book and close his eyes. 70. Pietro and his father travelled to Ibiza (A) on a holiday they had booked in advance. (B) with a group of people they knew. (C) both A and B are true (D) neither A nor B is true 71. (A) Pietro

The girls at the airport pretended not to belong to their families because (A) they wanted to seem older and more independent. (B) their parents were quarrelling. (C) both A and B are true (D) neither A nor B is true 73. Pietro had an advantage over the girls as (A) his father was looking after their luggage. (B) he wasnt hungry. (C) both A and B are true (D) neither A nor B is true 74. Pietro and his fathers holiday accommodation was unsatisfactory for both of them (A) as it was too far from the beach. (B) because the room was too small. (C) both A and B are true (D) neither A nor B is true 75. Pietro and his father had different ideas about (A) how to spend time on the beach.

The three paragraphs in the letter deal with separate topics You are expected to write about the topics in paragraphs 2 and 3 in greater length than about the one in paragraph 1. 5, Green Lane Burndale DH3 5JK England 12 May 1998 Dear Reni, I have just received your letter. As I have some free time this afternoon I thought I would write to you now Im too tired anyway to do any serious work at the moment, because I was watching television late last night. The TV is a real problem for me, I find it rather difficult to switch it off. Sometimes I can be glued to the box for hours on end. Do people in Hungary also watch a lot of TV? It

must be tempting with all the channels that are available to you nowadays. There must be quite a bit of channel-hopping going on, but of course not everybody can understand as many foreign languages as you do! I didnt only go to bed late last night, but I also got up at five this morning! You know, this is the time I go swimming. I only go three times a week, but there are some kids who take their swimming really seriously, dreaming of gold medals and all the championships they are going to win. That reminds me: how did your little sisters last tennis championship shape up? If she goes on like that shell soon be a top-seeded superstar making a fortune. I have always wondered though if in professional sports the moneys worth all the effort that goes into it. What do you think about this? Speaking of money, that reminds me: theres a lot more petty crime around nowadays than there used to be. For example, the Smiths flat down the street was burgled last night. The burglars must have

guessed that the Smiths were away on holiday, as their letterbox was jammed with all the junkmail that we get delivered around here. This consumer society we live in can be a real nuisance at times I expect things in Hungary must also be going the same way. What is it really like in Hungary now? Have peoples values and attitudes to money changed in the recent past? Have the changes affected you in any way? Even though Hungary is not that far away from here, we dont really get to know what s happening there. Time to stop now. Im meeting some friends in half an hour I hope youre fine Do write Let me know your news. Cheers, Bernie ANGOL ÍRÁSBELI FELADATSOR MEGOLDÁSOK 1998.

Choose the answer which fits the text best A/II. 1 The room was, by now, growing steadily more familiar to me. The triangular clock on the wall, the cream foam sofa, the three-tiered hi-fi cabinet; I found object after object, as my gaze fell on it, bringing with it a sad feeling of recognition. However, as I continued to peer into the room, I gained the strong

impression that the whole of the rear section - which adjoined the main portion to form an L - had not previously been there at all, that it was a very recent addition. Nevertheless, as 1 continued to look at it, this same rear section seemed in itself strongly reminiscent, and after a moment 1 realised this was because it resembled exactly the back part of the sitting-room in the house my parents and I had Lived in for several months in Manchester. "You wont find anyone in there," a mans voice said behind me. Straightening, I saw that the speaker had emerged from the neighbouring apartment. He was standing in front of his door, at the top of a stairway parallel to the one I was standing on. The man was around fifty, with heavy, bulldog-like features He was shabbilydressed; in a T -shirt Tract ~ damp patch around the chest "Ah," I said, "so this apartment is empty?" The man shrugged. "Maybe theyre coming back My wife and I dont like an empty apartment

next to us, but after all that trouble, were relieved, I can tell you. Were not unfriendly people But after all of that, well, wed much sooner have it the way it is now. Empty" "Ah.

Were not unfriendly people And weve been through difficult times ourselves But when it goes on like that, well, you just want them to go. Wed rather have it empty" "I see. A lot of trouble" "Oh, yes. To be fair, I dont think there was physical violence But still, when you had to listen to them shouting late at night, it was very upsetting. My wife didnt like it one bit Whenever it started, she used to bury her head in the pillow. Even in the kitchen once I came in and there she was, cooking with a pillow around her head But whenever we saw him, he was sober. Hed give us a quick salute and be

A/II.2 Almost three fifths of rail commuters suffer delayed journeys at least twice a week, often arriving late for work or incurring extra costs, according to a passenger survey published today. The study, by the Consumers Association, said the rising number of complaints reflected "not the occasional bad experience, but a daily ordeal of poor services and late, unreliable and overcrowded trains." One in seven passengers said their trains had been late at least five times in the week of the survey, which took place during mild weather last September. Replicated on a national scale, this would

suggest that more than 200,000 commuters faced hold-ups every journey. More than 40 per cent of travellers said unpunctual services made them late for work at least once during the week, and a slightly higher proportion experienced delays on the way home. Poor timekeeping also led to additional financial burdens for many passengers in the form of higher childcare fees, extra parking charges or taxi fares. Overcrowded carriages were a further problem, with four in 10 rail users saying they had to stand at least once a week, and one in l0 reporting that their usual train had been so congested that they had to wait for the next one. The Railway Forum, which represents all the industrys main companies, accepted that some points in the study were "well- founded" and that passengers had a right to expect efficient services. Investment was higher than for many years, though the benefits would take time to become evident. A spokesman added: "More people are travelling by rail

and more services are in operation, indicating that all is not bad and that the industry is moving in the right direction." 63. According to the survey, one fifth of rail commuters have no problem with trains on their way to work 64. Unreliable and overcrowded trains are quite typical of train services 65. The survey was conducted on a national scale 66. Roughly, half of the rail commuters who took part in the survey had to put up with unpunctual trains once or twice a week. 67. Because of the delays some travelers could not reach their destinations 68 Finding a Beat caused a serious problem for the majority of passengers. 69. In spite of passengers complaints, the spokesman of the Railway Forum is optimistic about the future of train services.

A/II.3 On December 31st, l999, Christian nations all around the world will be in the grip of the biggest celebration in history. The best party will be in London, where the British taxpayer is putting on a dazzling display of fireworks and entertainment centered on the very spot where the millennium will start: the international time line at Greenwich. It was here that the British, with a theatrical sense of empire, decided that the zero line of longitude should be struck. In Rome, the more quiet-minded could join the Popes prayer vigil at St Peters Basilica, to contemplate the horrors of the past 1,000 years and the hopes of the next. Both London and Rome will spend much of 1999 on public works in preparation for celebrations throughout 2000. There will be

"silence audible" throughout the West from Friday, December 24th until Sunday, January 2nd. Britain has a special holiday on both December 31st and January 3rd to keep people away from their offices. Every airport in the world will be at a standstill on January 1st, as no one will want to ride on a day when computers might fail. Spare a thought for those to whom this event has less significance: to Muslims for whom it will be the year 1420, to Jews for whom it will be 5760 and for 1.1 billion Chinese for whom it will be the year of the Rabbit There will be no excuse for any of them to have a party. 70.

On reading the following passage carefully, choose ONE of the four answers (A), (B), (C) and (D) to each of the questions or unfinished statements. Choose the answer which fits the text best Some fifteen years ago I had been offered the job of selling off an estate of paintings. One of my friends in the art business had recommended me. Why me? My friend was a busy dealer who had neither the time, space, nor inclination to sell off a large but undistinguished lot of paintings. I was hired to rent a gallery for one year, advertise the works of art, sell as many as possible for their appraised value and at the end of the year hand over tha remainder to public auction. One of my first customers was an

elderly lady who bought a bowl of flowers by Luis Valtat. While I was wrapping her purchase she asked if I knew a portrait painter who could work from a photograph. As I was about to reply, an old man, who had been inspecting the collection, stepped forward and assured my customer he was the best portrait painter around. He was one of those people who was never made to wear human clothing. His long hairy arms extended some two feet below his side pockets He introduced himself as Novak Ratkovitch. His eyes popped from furlined sockets as he awaited our approval From head to ankles he was a fashion disaster but he was wearing the finest grade Johnson and Murphy shoes. Taken aback by this apparition in hand-crafted footwear, the woman gave Ratkovitch a wrinkled photograph of her late husband. "Paint a good likeness and Ill pay you five hundred dollars," she said About a week later the artist returned with the painting and I called the lady. At her request I agreed to delover

both artist and portrait to her Park Avenue Residence the next evening. To our surprise, upon arrival we found three other artists with similar portraits awaiting the patroness. The lady appeared with a very old spaniel "Laddie was my husbands dog. I will buy the painting he likes best He loved my Edgar so," she said Upon seeing a commission turn into a competition Ratkovitch picked up his painting and asked for directions to the washroom, leaving me to control my irritation at being so neatly swindled. He returned, just as the angry artists were propping up their paintings for Laddies inspection. Ratkovitch placed his portrait with the others The dog immediately limped over to Ratkovitchs painting and began licking the face of his departed master, totally ignoring the other works. Ratkovitch accepted the five hundred dollars He winked knowingly at me, and we made our way outside. Trying to contain myself after the miracle Id just witnessed, I waited for Ratkovitch to speak,

He finally admitted that hed gone to the kitchen, were hed smeared bacon grease on his portrait: hence the dogs reaction. 51.

Yestedays technological marvels improved life by producing quantum leaps in manufacturing efficiency, helping to shorten the workweek in industrial societies. The marvels of today, concentrated in telecommunications, are supposed to be having the same impact in the post-industrial world. According to statistics, U. S productivity has risen substantially faster in the last six years than in the preceding 20, and similar improvements have been detected elsewhere. Many workers say that modern-day, labour saving devices are actually driving an expansion of work time and an intrusion of the office into home. Roy McCloughry, an economist-turned-writer on social ethics in Nottingham, says: "There is great tension at the moment between standard of living and quality of life, and technology is on the side of standard of living. Were being sold technological devices all the time and told

theyre convenient. Its only when youve got them that you realise that lives have been changed by them, and maybe for the worse." An indicator that things might change is the degree of stress people are suffering. McCloughry says: "We are accommodating to machines rather than machines accommodating to us. Its almost as if the convenience of technology has led us to adapting to ways that cause human beings stress." Terence Gourvish, a professor of business at the London School of Economics, says that a notion that "the simplest is often the best" could take hold and "provide a check on the gadgetry revolution". "People who filter coffee through paper are not mad, and I dont think people particularly want to watch TV on their wrist, " he says. "If it doesnt add significantly to peoples lives and enjoyment, the consumer in the end will say, We dont need this. " 63. It is believed that improvements in telecommunications have helped to

reduce the workweek in the postindustrial world 64. The recent increase in US productivity due to an intrusion of ones work into ones home life 65. According to McCloughry, modern technology always helps to change peoples lives for the better 66. Modern technology adapts to how people live 67. McCloughry says that people are willing to tolerate stress for the sake of the convenience technology offers to them. 68. Gourvishs view is that modern technological devices are not the best means to help us live a better life 69. According to Gourvish, consumers will buy new technological devices only if they are really likely to improve the quality of peoples lives. Part A/II.3 Olvassa el figyelmesen az alábbi szöveget, majd döntse el a szöveginformáció alapján, hogy a szöveg alatti (A) vagy (B) állítás igaz-e, vagy mind a két előbbi állítás egyformán igaz (C), vagy mind a kettő egyformán hamis (D)! On reading the following passage carefully, decide, according to the

text, whether statement (A) is true, or (B) is true, or both of them are equally true (C), or neither of them is true (D). Bike sheds and buses were unveiled yesterday as the answer to the traffic jams caused by the school rush. A Government panel called for cheap bus travel for all schoolchildren and better, more secure bicycle facilities at schools. The School Travel Adisory Group (STAG) also wants local authorities to introduce school buses for children not entitled to free fares and wants the Highway Code and driving tests to include sections on school travel. Within ten years the committee would like to double the number of children travelling to school by means other than individual cars. This would take school traffic back to levels recorded in the mid-1980s Ultimately the panel hopes to "make it possible for every child to walk, cycle or take the bus or train to school". It claims that this will bring long-term health benefits to the children and clear up congested

roads. The plans were criticised for not going far enough and for failing to tackle the issue of safety. Many parents fear their children will be run over or attacked by perverts if left to make their own way to school. Carey Newson of Transport 2000, wich wants 20mph limits around schools, said: "The report fails to show how roads will be made safer. It puts too much responsibility on schools to solve the traffic problems" In the past ten years the proportion of journeys to school by car has nearly doubled, from 16 to 29 percent. At 8.50 in the morning during the school year, one in five cars on urban roads is taking children to school 70. A. Traffic jams around schools are partly due to the fact that few children choose to cycle to school B. The problem could be solved by introducing special bus services for all schoolchildren C. both A and B are true D. neither A nor B is true 71. A. The School Travel Advisory Group (STAG) intends to change the Highway Code B. Learner

drivers might be instructed on how to drive near schools C. both A and B are true D. neither A nor B is true 72. A. Fifteen years ago twice as many children went to school by bus, by bike or on foot B. Over the last ten years almost twice as many children have come to school by car C. both A and B are true D. neither A nor B is true 73. A. According to the panel, schoolchildrens health will be unaffected by the proposal if it is accepted B. If children walk or cycle to school, road accidents or crime against them may increase C. both A and B are true D. neither A nor B is true 74. A. Road safety will be improved according to the proposal of the STAG B. The STAG wants to put 20 mph limits around schools to prevent road accidents C. both A and B are true D. neither A nor B is true 75. A. If the proposal is accepted, schools wont have to worry about traffic jams B. At the moment, one fifth of parents in urban areas prefer to drive their children to school C. both A and B are true D.

Pine Cottage 30, Hedge Street Westlake England 21 May 2000 Dear Reni, Thanks for your letter. It was so nice of you to write with all the studying you have to do My situation is pretty much the same: studying day in, day out. Im taking a short break at the moment, so Ive decided to drop you a few lines. Now that Im in the middle of the exam period I can hardly afford any time off with a clear conscience. Its rather hard to cope with the strains of having to learn this great amount of material within such tight time limits. All this trees has even affected my sleep How can you manage the pressures of studying? I would really appreciate some good advice! Sitting by my desk over my books is really getting me down. Imagine, in the past three weeks I have only been to the cinema once. In a sense, even that had to do with my studies You know, Ive got an exam

on Renaissance literature, so I went to see this modern adaptation of a A Midsummer Nights Dream. Its always interesting to see to what extent the film version of a play /novel is different from the original book version. I found this new interpretation of Shakespeare rather intriguing. I do suggest you go and see it We could then compare our views. Anyway, what do you think of modern film adptations of such literary classics in general? My friend and I went to the Odeon, which is a very comfortable cinema, also superbly equipped technically, but I was annoyed by the amount of rubbish scattered on the floor. I just dont see why cant be a bit more conscious of their environment. After all, it is the world we all live in In this respect, though, the good news is that the local authorities have recently launched an experimental project of recycling domestic waste. Its good to know that they are trying to do something at least. Is there greater enviromental awareness in your country or are

people just the same there too? In what ways are Hungarian people encouraged to pay more attention to their environment? It would be interesting to know if the situation is any different in your part of the world. I think Id better get back to studying now. I hope youre OK Do find some time to write Cheers, Dan ANGOL ÍRÁSBELI ÉRETTSÉGI-FELVÉTELI FELADATOK (2000) MEGOLDÁS JAVÍTÁSI ÚTMUTATÓ A vizsgát érettségiként is író tanulók a középiskola számára másolatot készítenek a tesztválaszlapból, illetve a fogalmazást indigóval, 2 példányban írják.

On reading the following passage (A/II.1) carefully, choose ONE of the four

answers (A), (B), (C) and (D) to each of the questions or unfinished statements. Choose the answer which fits the text best A/II.1 When I moved to an apartment in New York and discovered that my new neighbours included a colony of pigeons, my first reaction was: exterminate the brutes! I was disturbed by their morning mating calls, and agreed with my wife, Dana, when she cursed them as winged rodents that soil the city. I attacked them with broom and water pistol. It was hard for me to believe that the traditional symbol of peace, a dove with an olive branch, is actually a white pigeon. Then last December, after scaring away a grey pigeon sitting on the sill of our bathroom window, I found a nest there with an egg in it. "Revenge is ours!" I shouted to Dana, triumphantly holding the egg high up in the air. "Should I smash it right away or save it for an omelette?" But Dana was looking in horror at the window-sill behind me. The pigeon had swooped back to the empty

nest and was beating its wings against the window frame. "You put that back this second!" Dana said, with the same look on her face that I swear the parent pigeon had. "How can a rational human want to save a baby pigeon?" I asked as I returned the egg. And then it came to me. Here was a chance to answer the mystery that puzzled generations of city dwellers: why doesnt anyone ever see a baby pigeon? Let others search Loch Ness for its monster or climb the Himalayas in order to track down the Yeti. I would be the first human to see a baby pigeon in the wild The bird roosted outside the bathroom for a week, and then one morning the nest was empty - no mother, no baby, no egg. Soon another nest appeared with two eggs, but they, too, vanished I reported the parenting troubles to a friend of mine in the Cornell Laboratory of Ornithology. "Eggs normally hatch after 18 days," she said, "but sometimes pigeons are frightened off the nest, and sometimes eggs

never hatch because the parents arent getting the proper diet to make sturdy eggshells." "And why," I asked, "do we never see a baby pigeon?" "They stay in the nest for the first month," my friend told me, "and grow so rapidly theyre nearly full size when they emerge." 51. According to the text, the authors new home was (A) on the outskirts of the city. (B) near a big green park. (C) in a block of flats. (D) near a bird reservation. 52.

(D) give a sweet mating sound. 53. The author took the egg from the nest on the sill of the bathroom window because (A) he was short of eggs to make an omelette. (B) the nest had been abandoned and the egg was left there. (C) his hobby was to collect different size eggs. (D) he wanted to give a final blow to the pigeons. 54. The authors

wife, Dana, asked her husband to put the egg back in the nest because (A) she felt sorry for the future generations of pigeons. (B) her husband was going to make a mess in the bathroom. (C) she didnt want to have her window broken. (D) she realised that the parent pigeon felt desperate for her "baby". 55. The author put back the egg in the nest because (A) he felt guilty of wanting to break the egg. (B) he was puzzled by his wifes sudden reaction. (C) he was frightened by the parent pigeons attack. (D) he was relieved that he didnt have to destroy the egg. 56. Having saved the egg with the baby pigeon inside, the author (A) suddenly realised that baby pigeons hadnt been seen for years.

marked with D on the Answer Sheet. A/II.2 Youre halfway through another magazine; another blizzard of words, and fake statistics confirmed by society gurus with Hollywood names. Whats truly important? Whats true even? The main shortcoming of our information culture is not the availability of "facts", but their quality and relevance to you. Information overload, also known as the now medically recognised "information fatigue syndrome", is the new flu. Were bombarded by news faxes, phone-calls, emails, and the junk equivalent of all these, until the information we need to operate evades us. Heres some information about information: The script for a 30-minute broadcast by CNN would barely fill the front page of a newspaper. A weekday edition of a newspaper contains as much information as the average person in the 17th century would be exposed to in their entire lifetime. In 1971 the average American encountered 560 advertising messages a day; by 1997 that had grown

to 3,000. Dr David Lewis, a psychologist who has recently published a book, Information Overload, recognises that the "sheer volume of information we have to deal with daily means that work stress spills out into home life, and our heads become so full of data that we find it hard to sleep". Dr Lewis says: "As deadlines get tighter due to the speed of information, people are always inclined to feel the information they have is out of date." He refers to one financial director who installed a new system as it gave him a 100th of a second on his competitors. So surely theres a solution? He isnt optimistic: "There isnt one," says Lewis. The information overload isnt going away, so its vital that we become better at managing it. 63. The most important problem with information today is the very amount one is exposed to 64. We seem to be flooded with lots of information, but even so sometimes what we are really after fails to reach us. 65. You can find as much

information in a daily newspaper today as people were likely to get during their whole life a few hundred years ago. 66. The overall information load the average American gets daily has increased more than five times over the last three decades. 67. Work stress caused by the amount of information we have to cope with may prevent us from getting enough sleep. 68. People think that the speed of information today helps us to keep up-to-date and meet deadlines 69. Dr David Lewis book gives advice on how to manage the information load better A/II.3 The tram started up again as the three of us made our way down the central aisle. The carriage was crowded, making it impossible for us to sit near one another. I squeezed myself into a seat towards the back of the carriage, between a small elderly man and a matronly mother with a toddler on her lap. The seat was surprisingly comfortable and after a few moments I began to rather enjoy the journey. Opposite me were three old men reading one

newspaper, held open by the man in the middle. The jogging of the tram seemed to give them difficulties and at times they argued for the command of a particular page. We had been travelling for a while when I became aware of activity around me and saw that a ticket inspector was making her way down the aisle. It occurred to me then that my companions must have purchased my ticket for me - I certainly had not acquired one on boarding. All around me, people were producing their tickets and passes. Suppressing a sense of panic, I set about formulating something to say that would sound at once dignified and convincing. When the ticket inspector was towering above us and my neighbours all offered their tickets for clipping, I announced firmly, "Im without a ticket, but in my case there are special circumstances which, if youll allow me, Ill explain to you." 70. (A) The author of the text found a seat next to his companions. (B) All of them were sitting in the front of the tram.

(C) both A and B are true (D) neither A nor B is true 74. (A) The author believed his companions had his ticket with them. (B) The author managed to hide his nervousness. (C) both A and B are true (D) neither A nor B is true 75. (A) The authors excuse sounded impolite. (B) The authors explanation was incomplete.

What exactly happened to you? Süni didnt seem to know the details. I remember how uncomfortable I felt when I had to spend three days in hospital when I was having my tonsils out. I hope it was a less upsetting experience for you! As you know, I write articles for the school magazine and my editor has just asked me to write one with the title The New Man and the New Woman of the Third Millennium. I am supposed to collect ideas on what young people think male and female ideals of the future will be like and also the reasons for their preferences. I would appreciate it if you would share your ideas with me on this subject - I need to hear views from as many people as possible and I have very little contact with your part of the world, unfortunately. You wont believe it, but Ive started to

learn Spanish! Ive been going to Spain on holiday with my parents for the past four years and now, at last, Ive decided Im fed up with just being the strong silent type when it comes to communicating with the locals. The problem is I seem to be making slow progress, or is it that Im just too impatient? As you are such an experienced foreign language learner yourself, could you give me a few tips on how I could become as proficient in Spanish as you are in English? Ive got to finish now. Well have a poetry-reading session at school at 5pm Do write soon Im really looking forward to hearing from you. Cheers, Les Angol közös érettségi-felvételi feladatok MEGOLDÓKULCS 2001. A B C D 1.

5 10 15 20 25 Her name was Connie. She was fifteen and she had a quick nervous giggling habit of craning her neck to glance into mirrors or checking other peoples faces to make sure her own was all right. Her mother, who noticed everything and knew everything and who hadnt much reason any longer to look at her own face, always scolded Connie about it. "Stop gawking at yourself, who are you? You think youre so pretty?" she would say. Connie would raise her eyebrows at these familiar complaints and look right through her mother, into a shadowy vision of herself as she was right at that moment: she knew she was pretty and that was everything. Her mother had been pretty once too, if you could believe those old snapshots in the album, but now her looks were gone and that was why she was after Connie. "Why dont you keep your room clean like your sister? How have you got your hair fixed - what the hell stinks? Hair spray? You dont see your sister using that junk." Her

sister Jane was twenty-four and still lived at home. She was a secretary in the high school Connie attended, and if that wasnt bad enough - with her in the same building - she was so plain and chunky and steady that Connie had to hear her praised all the time by her mother and her mothers sisters. Jane did this, Jane did that, she saved money and helped clean the house and cooked and Connie couldnt do a thing, her mind was all filled with trashy daydreams. Their father was away at work most of the time and when he came home he wanted supper and he read the newspaper at supper and after supper he went to bed. He didnt bother talking much to them, but around his bent head Connies mother kept picking at her until Connie wished her mother were dead and she herself were dead and it were all over. There was one good thing: Jane went places with girlfriends of hers, girls who were just as plain and 30 35 steady as she, and so when Connie wanted to do that her mother had no objections.

The father of Connies best girlfriend drove the girls the three miles to town and left them off at a shopping plaza, so that they could walk through the stores or go to a movie, and when he came to pick them up again at eleven he never bothered to ask what they had done. They must have been familiar sights, walking around that shopping plaza in their shorts and flat ballerina slippers that always scuffed the sidewalk, with charm bracelets jingling on their thin wrists; they would lean together to whisper and laugh secretly if someone passed by who amused or interested them. 51. Connie had the habit of (A) not looking into other peoples faces. (B) checking that she looked her best. (C) staring at her own reflection everywhere. (D) laughing at people nervously all the time. 52. Connies mother thought (A) Connie was too busy with herself. (B) Connie could be prettier. (C) she was as pretty as Connie. (D) she didnt have time to check her looks in the mirror. 53. Connie used to listen to

her mothers complaints (A) not daring to look into her eyes. (B) feeling ashamed of herself. (C) that took her by surprise each time. (D) caring about nothing else but her own beauty. 54. Connies mother (A) was unhappy that Jane didnt use hair spray. (B) didnt want Connie to follow her sisters example. (C) thought that Connie should clean her sisters room as well. (D) was envious of Connies beauty. 55. Jane was often praised in front of Connie because Jane (A) had a good job. (B) was older than Connie. (C) was more practical than Connie. (D) was attractive. 56. Connie and her sister (A) spent the day at the same school. (B) were similar in their appearance. (C) both had bad manners. (D) had a similar taste. 57. Connies father (A) understood Connie without words. (B) was always on her daughters side. (C) wasnt interested in family matters. (D) was too terrified to start a fight with his wife. 58. Connie tried to escape from her mothers picking at her by (A) wishing she was older, like

her sister. (B) dreaming about living with her mothers sister. (C) cleaning the house and doing the cooking as she was told. (D) thinking of all kinds of things that took her mind off her mother. 59. In line 25, what does "it" refer to? (A) Connies life. (B) Her fathers silence. (C) The quarrelling. (D) Her mothers life. 60. Connie was allowed to go out because (A) the father of Connies best friend accompanied them. (B) her sister also liked going out with her friends. (C) there was a shopping plaza three miles away from them. (D) Connies mother thought her friends were like Janes. 61. Connie and her best friend (A) went to the shopping plaza on a regular basis. (B) always dressed up when they went out together. (C) were asked to tell their parents what they had done in the plaza. (D) used to ridicule people and laugh loudly at their looks. 62. Connie felt that (A) her mother was proud of both of her daughters. (B) she didnt get the support she needed from her family. (C)

she should behave more like her sister, Jane. (D) she could always do what she wanted.

A/II.2 The Royal Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals (RSPCA) re-homes 26,000 unwanted or abandoned dogs a year, but around 10% of these come back

because their new owners are not able to cope or do not like their new pet. This can be very upsetting for a dog and each time it happens, the dog is likely to become increasingly disturbed and therefore difficult. The RSPCA wanted to reduce the number of dogs being brought back and asked an animal behavourist, Rebecca Ledger, to find out why it was happening. Rebeccas research showed that the problem is with mismatches; people adopting dogs unsuitable for their personality. She realised that even though a dog might be a problem dog, somewhere there was a new owner who would be able to cope, it was just a matter of identifying the right person. Rebecca came up with a novel way of identifying the perfect human-canine match - a seven-step personality test for the dog, combined with psychometric testing for the humans. The dog tests are carried out by the RSPCA kennel staff and designed to find out how confident the dog is, whether it likes being left alone, and how well it plays with

other dogs and people. The human test aims to find out what the owners expect from their new pets. The tests were used in trials last year and one of the resounding successes of the scheme has been Tizer - a sheep dog who found a new home with the Leach family from Camberley. Tizer was definitely a problem dog naughty and a bit wild - but the RSPCA was able to identify the Leach family as one that would not give up when things get tough. Tizer is still with them a year later, calmer, quieter and much, much happier! 63. Every year the RSPCA has to find a second new home for about 2,600 dogs because the dogs cannot get along with their previous owners. 64. Few dogs become really stressed when their owners fail to get to like them 65. Some pet owners personality is unsuitable for keeping dogs 66. According to Rebecca Ledger, problem dogs cannot have an owner who is ideal for them 67. The RSPCA checks, for example, how much dogs like peoples company 68. The RSPCA asks any future dog

owners to take a personality test 69. The Leach family managed to provide a new home for a problem dog because the test by RSPCA was very effective. Olvassa el figyelmesen az alábbi szöveget (A/II.3), majd döntse el a szöveginformáció alapján, hogy a szöveg alatti (A) vagy (B) állítás igaz-e, vagy mind a két előbbi állítás egyformán igaz (C), vagy mind a kettő egyformán hamis (D)!

A/II.3 The United States now has food wrap for the 21st century. Like any other cling film it forms an air barrier to stop food going off. The big difference, however, is that these food wraps are edible and tasty Made from 100% fruit or vegetable with no additives, they come in pear, peach, strawberry, apricot and apple flavours. Or there is carrot and broccoli in the vegetable range. So whats the point

of the new wrapping material? Not only is it environmentally friendly since it is totally biodegradable, but also, believe it or not, it is the latest way for the US government to encourage the nation to eat more fruit and vegetables. Apparently we should all eat five or more portions of them every day but most Americans are not eating enough. Lets see how it works. Say you have a half-eaten apple you want to keep fresh Then wrap it in the cling film say a strawberry flavoured one - and just pop it in the fridge When you want to eat it, simply take it out and eat the whole lot. Not only do you get a strawberry-flavoured apple, but you also get a double whammy of vitamins. It is not intended that this replace food packaging - just that it adds a bit of extra flavour and goodness to your kitchen. 70. 71. 72. 73. 74. 75. (A) The new cling film works quite similarly to the old ones. (B) It does not have to be thrown out as rubbish. (C) both A and B are true (D) neither A nor B is

true (A) You can flavour the new food wrap to suit your taste. (B) The different flavours are completely natural. (C) both A and B are true (D) neither A nor B is true (A) The new cling film has a double advantage over the old one. (B) Fruit and vegetables are not very popular with Americans. (C) both A and B are true (D) neither A nor B is true (A) Vitamin intake will increase if households use the new food wrap. (B)The new cling film is not recommended for health-conscious people. (C) both A and B are true (D) neither A nor B is true (A) The new product has to be stored in the fridge. (B) The new product will come out in mixed flavours. (C) both A and B are true (D) neither A nor B is true (A) Food manufacturers will introduce the new cling film soon. (B) Food wrapped in this cling film will increase variety in food flavours.

Its good to know that youre well and it was only the usual lack of time Congratulations on your parents 20th wedding anniversary. It was a good idea of you to organise a surprise party for them. I hope everything went well but Id really like to know the details Well, speaking about celebrations, we also had something to celebrate. My sister turned 16 last Sunday She didnt want to have a birthday party at home, so we went to a restaurant. We didnt go to the pub round the corner, as food isnt very interesting there. You know the usual (and frankly, quite boring) fish and chips and pies. As my sister fancies Italian food, we chose a small Italian restaurant instead I can say it was an excellent choice. We had a really wonderful time with delicious food and nice live music It was a great evening In fact, when we go out

we like to have international food. I think it beats British food any day Not that I dont like it but I love experimenting with something new. What about you? Maybe its not a big issue in a country like Hungary where cuisine is world famous. My younger brother enjoyed this evening too, especially as he didnt go home empty-handed. He added a new menu to his collection. Gosh, his room is like a storehouse He started with pebbles and shells but hardly a month passes without him finding something worth collecting. My parents had hoped he would grow out of this habit soon but they had to realise that some people never do. I know quite a lot of grown-ups here who still have a passion for collecting things. And what about Hungary? What do people collect over there these days? Well, I must go now. My brother is nagging me to go and have a look at his latest treasures Please, write soon Love, Pat Angol felvételi feladatok javítási útmutató (2002) (május 23. de) A vizsgát

Choose the answer which fits the text best A/II.1 5 In July, I went up to the Bracketts house to collect the money they owed to our bakery. Mrs Brackett was married to a racing motorist known in the town as Noisy Brackett; it was she who ‘had the money. Noisy was given a couple of cars and his pocket money, but, having done that, Mrs. Brackett paid as little as she could, as slowly as she could, to everyone else 10 I drove up to their house. I was working out a sentence to say to Mrs Brackett, when I saw her kneeling by a goldfish pond, at the far side of the great lawn. She turned

and saw me I did not know whether to go over the lawn to her or to wait where I was. I decided to go over, and she got up and walked to me. I do not know why it was - whether it was because I was standing on the grass as she 15 was walking over, whether it was my anxiety about how to begin the conversation, or whether it was because of her bare white arms, and the inquisitiveness of her eyes - but I thought I was going to faint. When she was two yards away, my heart jumped, my throat closed, and my head was swimming. Although I had often seen her driving through the town, I had never really looked at her before. She stopped, but I had the feeling that she had not stopped, but was invisibly walking on until she walked clean through me. My arms went weak She was amused by the effect she had on me 20 "I know who you are," she said. "You are Mr Frasers son Do you want to speak to me?" I did, but I couldnt. I forgot all the sentences I had prepared "Ive come

about our check, "I said at last. I shouted it Mrs Brackett was as startled by my shout as I was She walked up and down a yard or two, thinking. Then she walked away to the house 25 "Youd better come inside," she called back in an offhand way. You could have put our house into the hall and sitting-room of Heading Mount. I had been in that room when I was a boy, helping the waitress when my father was there doing the catering for a party. I do not know what youd have to pay for the furniture there - thousands, I suppose 30 "Wheres the bill?" she muttered, not looking at me. "Ive got it here," I said, taking the bill out of my pocket. She took it from me and looked at it "Ive paid this," she said, giving the bill a mannish slap. "I pay every quarter Anyway, this isnt a bill. Its a statement" 35 "Yes," I said.

A/II.2 Cutty Sark, the world famous sailing ship

that in the heyday of the wool trade regularly recorded the fastest time for the voyage from Australia to Britain, is rotting away and may have to be sold abroad. The London landmark, which exchanged the seven seas for a concrete dry dock in Greenwich on the banks of the River Thames more than 50 years ago, has been given just four years before the rot and rust becomes so bad that the ship disintegrates. "We need to raise a minimum of eight million pounds ($12.6 million) for the preservation work or we will have to put her up for sale," says the Cutty Sark Trust chief executive, Richard Doughty. According to him, the ship is virtually unique. She is part of a World Heritage site and classed as a Grade I listed building. It would be a shame to lose her, but if the money cannot be raised, she may have to be sold The ship was launched in 1869 on Scotlands River Clyde to make the run to China for the tea trade but switched to fetching wool from Australia to feed Englands mills.

She was sold in 1895 to a Portuguese company when the wool trade was much less profitable, and spent the next three decades running cargoes between Oporto, Rio de Janeiro, New Orleans and Lisbon. Acquired by an English sailing fanatic in the 1920s, she was bequeathed to the nation in 1938 and finally put out to grass in Greenwich in 1951. The trust, formed to preserve the elegant sailing ship, will be putting in a bid for funds to the Heritage Lottery Fund, which uses money from the National Lottery to support local, regional and national projects to preserve Britains historical buildings and landmarks. 63. Cutty Sark used to be the quickest cargo ship 64. Cutty Sark made its last journey half a century ago 65. A foreign investor is willing to pay 8 million pounds for the ship 66. Cutty Sark stopped transporting wool in the 19th century because a Portuguese company bought her 67. The previous owner of the ship sold her to the state 68. The Cutty Sark Trust is hoping to win the lottery

to restore the ship 69.

A/II.3 According to the federal government, harvesting tuna fish in the Pacific Ocean using a large net does not significantly affect nearby dolphin populations, but animal and environmental groups refuse to accept the findings. A study by the National Marine Fisheries Service found that using mile-long nets to capture tuna in the eastern tropical Pacific Ocean will not threaten the dolphin species. The findings mean tuna from countries such as Mexico can be exported to

the United States and labeled as ‘Dolphin Safe if no dolphins were injured or killed when the fish were removed. In the past, countries that used dolphins to target tuna could not post the ‘Dolphin Safe label on products shipped to the United States. Dolphins are often a good indicator of tuna habitats and are used by fishermen to determine where to place their nets. Earlier methods of using fishing nets killed hundreds of thousands of dolphins, but deaths have dropped to 2,000 per year according to the government – still too many for environmental groups. The new rule requires that tuna associated with the death of one or more dolphins must be separated from that considered dolphin safe. "The whole point of the Dolphin Safe label is to give consumers a choice of tuna that wasnt caught by netting dolphins," said William Snape, Vice President with the Defenders of Wildlife. 70. (A) The study shows that dolphins are not in danger (B) Environmental groups believe that tuna

fishing threatens dolphins. (C) both A and B are true (D) neither A nor B is true 71. (A) Tuna fish can only be caught by killing other fishes (B) ‘Dolphin Safe means that no dolphins are captured by fishing nets. (C) both A and B are true (D) neither A nor B is true 72. (A) Tuna cannot be sold in the USA without the ‘Dolphin Safe label (B) Mexico can sell tuna in the USA labeled as ‘Dolphin Safe. (C) both A and B are true (D) neither A nor B is true 73. (A) Dolphins and tuna fish often live side by side (B) Fishermen look out for dolphins to locate tuna. (C) both A and B are true (D) neither A nor B is true 74.

After four days of unsuccessful house hunting, I decided to move into a new house that Im going to share with two other students. When I first met them I was a little shocked because they looked somewhat weird to me. The guy had big tattoos on his arms and the girl had a small ring in her nose and a lot of makeup on her face. Since I liked the place a lot and because I try not to judge people by their appearances, I decided to move in. Maybe I was wrong Do you think that appearances should matter so much? It feels so good to be living on my own, away from my parents. Theres no one to tell me now when to get back home, and I can have dinner whenever I wish. Honestly, I can

hardly imagine myself living together with my family again. Ive heard that in some countries its not unusual to find even three generations living together in one house under the same roof. Is that true for Hungary? What do you think about living together with grandparents? Can you imagine that? Besides moving, the other thing that has happened to me recently is that Ive taken up studying Italian. I bought a self-study book a month ago and now I spend an hour almost every evening doing the exercises and memorizing the unfamiliar words. The grammar is not always easy to understand but I hope I will manage to learn the language eventually. I cant really afford to have a private tutor, and at the moment I have no time to attend a language course. As a language learner yourself do you think its possible to learn a language like that? What would you recommend I should do to pick up Italian fast without having to go to Italy of course? Sorry I must stop now. My flatmates have just popped

in to ask me to join them for dinner I said yes Lets see how it goes. I would love to hear from you soon Love, Pat Angol írásbeli felvételi feladatsor 2003 (közös érettségi-felvételi) megoldások 2003. május 21, délelőtt A/I rész - Nyelvtan és nyelvhasználat Part A/I - Grammar and usage Megoldókulcs Key A 1 B C D X A X 52 3 X 28 29 X 6 X 31 7 X 32 9 X X 35 X X X 39 15 X 40 X X 18 X 19 X 20 21 X X X 23 24 25 X X X X X X X X X X X X X X 58 X 59 X X 61 X 62 X 63 X 64 X 65 X 41 X 66 X 42 X 67 X 68 X X 43 X 44 X 69 45 X 70 X 48 49 X X 50 B rész - Fogalmazási feladat Part B - Composition X 72 X 73 74 X X 71 X 75 D X 60 X 47 X 57 X 46 22 55 C X 56 X 38 14 17 X 37 13 B 54 36 X 16 X 34 10 12 53 33 X 11 X 30 8 A 51 27 5 D X X X C 26 2 4 B X X X Marking instructions This part of the test is marked according to the set of criteria below. In order to

ensure that all candidates are treated fairly and as objectively as possible, markers are advised not to give global marks, but to consider each criterion separately and add up the total afterwards. Please use the marking grid printed on the reverse side of “Értékelõlap”. Write the marks into the grid and check the appropriate boxes. 1. Purpose, audience and style (0-2 points) Has the candidate used a suitable style matching the purpose and the audience of the letter? 0 Inappropriately formal style and/or a bad mixture of formal and informal elements.

There are max 3 spelling errors. 3 Good vocabulary, used efficiently to

communicate ideas in at least two of the topic areas of the whole letter and a satisfactory vocabulary in the third; sufficient variety and accuracy, only occasional lapses, circumlocutions and generalities; some degree of idiomaticity; the text reads well. There are max 3 spelling errors. 4 Good vocabulary, used efficiently to communicate ideas in all the three topic areas of the whole letter; sufficient variety and accuracy, only occasional lapses, circumlocutions and generalities; some degree of idiomaticity; the text reads well. There are max 2 spelling errors 5 Excellent vocabulary throughout the letter; a high degree of lexical sophistication; accurate use of a wide range of vocabulary items; practically no inaccuracies; fully idiomatic. Spelling is accurate and error-free 3. Structures (0-5 points) Are the sentences in the letter structurally accurate and varied? 0 Structural inaccuracies disrupt sense throughout the whole letter; 5 or more ‘severe errors (no plural, no

subject-verb agreement, ill-formed past tense, undecipherable word order, etc.) No sentence structure variety 1 Structural inaccuracies disrupt sense in a great part of the whole letter, but at least 60 per cent of the letter is still readable; max. 4 ‘severe errors No sentence structure variety 2 Max. 3 severe errors; structural inaccuracies do not impair sense; number of less severe errors (incorrect preposition, misuse of articles, some inaccuracies in verb tenses) not disproportionately high. Some sentence structure variety, but not sufficient. 3 Max. 2 severe errors; structural inaccuracies do not impair sense; number of less severe errors limited (not exceeding 5). Attempt at sentence structure variety partly successful 4 No severe errors; number of less severe inaccuracies low (not exceeding 4). Sentence structure variety acceptable. 5 Practically error-free; max. 3 minor inaccuracies Consistent and appropriate variety of sentence structure; short and long, simple and

complex sentences as appropriate for the informal style of the letter. 4. Organisation, layout and punctuation (0-5 points) Is coherence achieved by an adequate sequencing of ideas? Is there a smooth transition from one topic to the next? Is coherence supported by the use of cohesive devices? Is the division of subject matter reflected in the paragraph structuring of the whole letter? 0 Coherence is inadequate, it is difficult to follow the writers train of thought. No paragraphs, no/hardly any linking words, pronoun references unclear, text falls apart, the conventional layout of the letter format is not observed; severe punctuation errors (punctuation disrupts sense) or lack of punctuation. 1 Some coherence and organisation present, paragraphs used, but link between the various sentences/paragraphs often unclear, pronoun reference inadequate or inaccurate; an attempt has been made to observe the conventional layout of the letter format, 3-4 severe punctuation errors. 2 Text is

coherent enough for effortless understanding of the writers train of thought with some occasional inconsistencies.

text; correct use of paragraphs, linking words and pronouns; no inaccuracies; accurate punctuation. 5. Content and task achievement - Topic 1: judging by appearances (0-2 points) Does the letter include discussion of the topic raised in the first paragraph of the input letter? 0 Topic ignored or dealt with in a single sentence, rather simplistically. 1 Topic described in some detail but with not enough sophistication. 2 Topic dealt with fully. 6.

Choose the answer which fits the text best A/II.1 5 When Mrs. Watt opened the gate she saw a fair-haired young man watching her out of the window. Wading up the path, she was aware of him watching her every step. The road from the bus-stop had been uphill, and the sweat was trickling down her forehead and fat cheeks. She wiped her face, and as she drew her fingers across her brow, she saw that the young man was still standing at the window, gazing at her. As if he were staring at something in the zoo, she thought She went to the back door, and as she was raising her hand to knock, the young man opened the door suddenly. She stood with her upraised hand in the air, feeling foolish Youll be the new charwoman? he said. She nodded and shuffled past him 10 My mothers not up yet, he said. But you can just begin She put her bag on the chair in the

scullery* and as she unpinned her hat she took stock of him. He was a very pale young man with hollow cheeks He had pale blue, watery eyes that stared persistently at her from between his almost white lashes. She felt vaguely uncomfortable under his stare as she took her apron out of 15 her bag and tied it around her fat stomach. What do you want me to do first? she said. You can do the fires, he said. He showed her the box with black-lead and brushes. You know how to clean a fire, dont you? he said. You rake out the ashes and you take away the 20 fender and -- Mrs. Watt laughed Bless me, laddie! she said I cleaned fireplaces long before you were born. He stood and watched her as she set to work. She was conscious of his watchful pale eyes, and she began to be annoyed at his continued scrutiny. He had 25 to step aside when she took out the ashes to the bin, and she said: Youre just like my first joker, he was always getting in the way. But the young man did not take the hint. He

hovered about the room, moving restlessly from one chair to another. He kept up a persistent breathing through his half-open mouth. It was neither a whistle nor a tune and it began to get 30 on Mrs. Watts nerves Whatll I do next? she said. The dishes. He went before her into the scullery and pointed to a pile of dirty dishes on the board by the sink. You know how to do them, dont you? he said You drip 35 them on this tray. Mrs. Watt laughed, but she did not say anything The laddies surely sort of simple, she said to herself. But she knitted her brows irritably when he lounged against the boiler and watched her. He was behind her, but all the time she was aware of the thin, tuneless whistling. She rattled the dishes noisily, trying to vent 40 her irritation on them. She was relieved when Mrs Laurie came in *scullery = mosogatóhelyiség 51.

A/II.2 Hundreds of wild elephants are the latest refugees from violence and disorder in Zimbabwe. The animals are fleeing the country by wading across the Zambezi river to escape being shot or trapped by so-called war veterans and illegal hunters. Game wardens* in Zambia say record numbers of

elephants are crossing the Zambezi, which forms the border between the two countries, to avoid being poached by armed gangs in Zimbabwe. "Elephants are quite intelligent and can communicate. They know they are safer on this side of the river," said one game warden The exodus is an indication of the devastation facing wildlife in Zimbabwe. With the breakdown of law and order, animals of all kinds are reportedly being poached on a massive scale for ivory and even for food. At Mosi-o-Tunya National Park, elephants are crossing the river daily. Wildlife experts say the movement is much larger than the normal seasonal migration and is causing a serious problem for Zambian authorities. There are so many elephants trapped in a small area that serious damage is being caused to the environment. The Zambia representative of the UK-based David Shepherd Wildlife Foundation said: "Until recently Zimbabwe had an excellent record for wildlife conservation and some of the best game

parks in the world. But with land redistribution, some of the best game parks have been settled or invaded by people with no experience of wildlife management at all." The head of the Zambian Wildlife Authority said he had been assured that Zimbabwean wildlife authorities were implementing appropriate wildlife management and providing good leadership in conservation issues. He blamed the exodus on drought and overpopulation. *game warden = vadőr 63. Lots of wild elephants in Zambia are crossing the Zambezi to find a new home 64. The elephants are leaving their homeland as a result of the breakdown of law and order 65. Animals of all kinds are fleeing from illegal hunters 66. The Mosi-o-Tunya National Park is the largest wild-life reserve in the region 67. According to the Zambia representative, the best game parks in Zimbabwe are being destroyed 68. Zimbabwean officials admit that wildlife management is no longer in good hands in their country 69. Some Zambian officials claim

that the movement of the wild elephants is partly due to bad weather conditions.

A/II.3 The futures red. English Heritage and Royal Mail yesterday promised to preserve all 85,000 of Englands remaining pillar boxes, describing them as national icons. "They are wonderful things, universally and properly regarded with great affection," English Heritages chief executive, Sir Neil Cossons, said yesterday. "They have every quality of good design" The project marks the 150th anniversary of the first pillar boxes, brainchild of the

novelist Anthony Trollope, then a General Post Office employee, who was sent to the Channel Islands to report on ways of improving the postal service. The first public pillar boxes were not red but green. They were installed, on trial, in St Helier, Jersey, on November 23 1852. Instantly popular, within 10 years they were being installed all over Britain Their cheerful pillar box red colour was introduced in 1874 for visibility. English Heritage has already listed 198 boxes, including a small wall box outside the old home of Charles Dickens in Kent, which was installed in 1859 and is still in daily use. The oldest mainland pillar box in use is in Dorset, and dates from 1853. Listed examples include rare octagonal and fluted* designs. Some from the 1930s, including one outside Windsor Castle, were painted air force blue and designed for air mail; some were topped with oval enamel plaques which pointed the way towards the nearest post office. English Heritage and Royal Mail agree they

must devise a preservation policy for the boxes. "People are protective of them, we get heaps of letters if a truck runs into one," Sir Neil said. *fluted = bordázott 70.

Elm Cottage 25, Castle Road Longwood LA4 7JK England 9 May 2004 Dear Gabi, Ive decided to write you a couple of lines, as studying is impossible. The neighbours kids are playing rather noisily in the street and their dog is barking his head off in the front garden. Ones neighbours can be a real bit of a nuisance sometimes, dont you think? Have you got any bad experiences with your neighbours or are your next door folks all nice guys? The neighbours kids are twins, but, funnily enough, they look completely different. One looks quite like their mother, while the other takes after their horrible father, I think. As I am an only child, I

have always wanted to have some siblings. Imagine what fun twins can have throughout their lives playing various practical jokes on the people they come across. Im sure theres no end to all the mischief they can get away with! Would you like to be one of identical twins? What do you think it would be like? Mums just come home from one of her usual shopping sprees with a handful of carrier bags and parcels again! She is a real shopaholic if ever theres been one! Im sure dad will make a big fuss of how much mum is spending on all that rubbish. Dad keeps saying that if mum carries on cruising the nearby shops and shopping centres like this, shell spend all the household budget on those real snippets, which are mostly useless, anyway. Is shopaholism a problem in Hungary too? Do you know anyone who simply cant resist a good bargain? I think Ill go for a walk now down by the canal to have some peace. Do write soon Take care, Pat ANGOL ÍRÁSBELI ÉRETTSÉGI-FELVÉTELI FELADATSOR 2004.

Is the division of subject matter reflected in the paragraph structuring of the whole letter? 0 Coherence is inadequate, it is difficult to follow the writers train of thought. No paragraphs, no/hardly any linking words, pronoun references unclear, text falls apart, the conventional layout of the letter format is not observed; severe punctuation errors (punctuation disrupts sense) or lack of punctuation. 1 Some coherence and organisation present, paragraphs used, but link between the various sentences/paragraphs often unclear, pronoun reference inadequate or inaccurate; an

attempt has been made to observe the conventional layout of the letter format, 3-4 severe punctuation errors. 2 Text is coherent enough for effortless understanding of the writers train of thought with some occasional inconsistencies. Paragraphs used, but link between the various sentences/paragraphs sometimes inappropriate; pronoun references accurate; the conventional layout of the letter format is observed with a few (2-3) less severe inaccuracies; 1-2 severe punctuation errors. 3 Fully coherent; there is a smooth flow to the text with occasional (max. 2) lapses; appropriate paragraph use; cohesive devices are mostly used appropriately with occasional minor inaccuracies, but all the pronoun references are clear; only minor punctuation errors (punctuation does not impair sense). 4 Fully coherent; there is a smooth flow to the text with max. 1 lapse; appropriate paragraph use Cohesive devices are mostly used appropriately with hardly any minor inaccuracies: all the pronoun references

are clear; very few (max. 2) minor punctuation errors 5 Fully coherent; well-organised; there is a smooth flow to the text; correct use of paragraphs, linking words and pronouns; no inaccuracies; accurate punctuation. 5.
