Three problems actually, and they蒺re called Charlie, Ella and Jack. Ranging in age from eleven down to three, they蒺re irresistible when they蒺re asleep. But when they蒺re awake they蒺re relentless. Individually they蒺re hard-working; in twos they蒺re a handful; all together, they蒺re a nightmare. More often than not, they蒺re disobedient and seem to have endless competitions to see who can behave in the most devilish way. On top of that, they all want my undivided attention at the same time. Under these stressful circumstances, you may think that it would be foolish of me to even consider travelling alone with my children. Well, I know now that it wasn蒺t just foolish, but downright irresponsible. I wanted to visit my parents. My husband couldn蒺t come, so I set off on the five-hour train journey with a bagful of toys, a pocketful of sweets and a headful of songs, stories and games. But regardless of my careful preparations, the journey was hellish: it was one of the worst experiences of my life. The final straw was when I arrived, exhausted and tearless, at my parents蒺 house. Instead of being sympathetic, they took great delight in telling me how awful I had been as a child. Thank, Mum and Dad. That was really helpful! Section D (10 marks) In this section, you will hear a short passage. There are 10 missing words or phrases. Fill in the blanks with the exact words or phrases you hear.

A Day In My Very Wealthy Life The first thing I did just as I woke up in my favorite house this morning was to admire the fabulous view from my bedroom window. Then I did an hour蒺s exercise with my personal fitness trainer while my housekeeper prepared my breakfast. After a luxurious bath, I spent some time with my secretary and told her to send cheques to all the charities I support. By the time I was leaving the house, a special delivery arrived. It was a present from my secret admirer. I didn蒺t get to the airport until midday, so I instructed the pilot to use our fastest plane and take me to my favorite city. During the flight, I had a light lunch and looked at photographs of my last holiday. As soon as we landed, I contacted a dear friend of mine who has just finished her latest film and arranged to meet her for dinner later. I spent the afternoon doing what I love doing most. When I met my friend at the restaurant, I was starving, so I ordered all my favorite things on the menu. As we were leaving the restaurant, I spotted somebody I蒺d always wanted to meet. It was the perfect end to a perfect day. - 6 -
