According to recent research, nearly three-quarters of workers spend 4 to 8 hours sitting during office hours. Worryingly, 73% have had health problems such as back, neck and shoulder pain, which may all be caused by long periods without moving. Evie Scott experienced just that after she had changed job. 'I used to work in a department store, where I was on my feet talking to customers all day,' she says, 'but I needed a higher salary so I got an office job instead. Although the challenge of the new job was quite exciting and I quickly made friends there, for a while I wondered whether I'd made a big mistake.' So Evie, who travels into town by rail every day, decided to do something about her fitness level. She explains: 'I didn't want to move house and it took far too long by bike, but what's really helped is getting off several stations before the city centre and then walking. I'm also thinking of going to the gym opposite work, and I might also take up squash after work, too.' She's made some small changes at work, too. 'I avoid sitting still for too long, for instance by making phone calls standing up, walking over to colleagues' desks rather than emailing them and simply standing up every ten minutes. I've even moved things like my printer so that I have to get up to use it. Over a working day all this adds up to a fair amount of extra exercise, which I'm convinced helps me work more efficiently - and happily! Question 32. Which of the following would be the best title for the passage? A. An Unusual Office Job B. Exercise at Work C. A Passive Lifestyle at Home D. Fitness and Health Problems Question 33. According to the passage, Evie stopped working in a department store to A. take part in physical activities B. have more time to take up squash C. go to the gym more regularly D. find a new job with a higher salary Question 34. The word exciting in paragraph 2 is closest in meaning to A. difficult B. boring C. normal D. interesting Question 35. The word them in paragraph 4 refers to A. colleagues B. changes C. phone calls D. desks Question 36. All of the following are mentioned in the passage as a way Evie has done to improve her fitness level EXCEPT A. standing up for every ten minutes C. taking up squash after work B. doing shorter train journeys D. moving her printer to get up to use it Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, or D on your answer sheet to indicate the correct answer to each of the questions from 37 to 43. The first day at school can be quite scary for any pupil but imagine being one among 50,000 or more! That is the total number of students at the City Montessori School in Lucknow, India. The school, better known as CMS, employs 4,500 staff including teachers, support staff, and others such as cleaners and gardeners. The school was set up by husband and wife team Dr Jagdish Gandhi and

Bharti Gandhi in 1959. The first pupils were the children of family members - and there were only five of them. As time went by, more people started to hear about the school and they wanted their children to attend. Slowly, the numbers rose. The school educates students between the ages of 3 and 17.They all wear a uniform and each class has about 45 pupils. But due to the size of the school, it is never possible for everyone to meet as there is no place that is big enough for everyone to fit in. One of the school's heads, Dr Gandhi's daughter Geeta Kingdon, said in an interview that, 'The whole of Lucknow would be jammed if we tried because one bus holds 50 children, so we'd need 1,000 buses to bring everyone together. The school doesn't receive any money from the government and the children's parents are only charged a small amount for their children to attend. For each pupil, there is also one teacher responsible for his or her health and life outside the classroom. In this way, the staff believe that no one is forgotten. Besides the traditional subjects such as maths, English and geography, the students also learn about world peace. CMS is the only school in the world to be awarded a UNESCO Peace Prize for Education for its efforts in this field. Today, the school is famous for its exam results and its international exchange programmes. The school has some well-respected past students, who have gone on to work in international organisations. However, within the school, and especially with everyone wearing the same uniform, it can be difficult to get noticed, so the students have to work especially hard. Dr Gandhi believes that the children receive not only an education, but also a love of the world. Question 37. Which best serves as the title for the passage? A. Inside the World's Friendliest School B. Students Learn about World Peace C. The Largest School in the World D. A Frightening Experience at School Question 38. The word they in paragraph 1 refers to A. pupils B. family members C. staff D. people Question 39. According to paragraph 1, what is indicated about the City Montessori School? A. It employs more than 4,000 staff from other countries. B. It provides both scary and exciting learning experiences. C. Its first five students were relatives of Dr Gandhi. D. The number of its students has begun to decline slightly Question 40. The word jammed in paragraph 2 is closest in meaning to A. serious B. crowded C. different D. narrow Question 41. The word efforts in paragraph 3 is closest in meaning to A. opportunities B. purposes C. attempts D. failures Question 42. Which of the following is NOT true about CMS according to the passage? A. It is too difficult to organise a meeting of all the students because of the school's size. B. The school's tuition fees are expensive and difficult to afford for low-income parents.
