Circle your answers “The best age to start learning the violin is between three and six,” says Margaret Porter, a violinist and music teacher. “It’s the time when you are learning about the world.” Margaret, who lives in London, prefers to take pupils at three and four, although she had made lots of exception for keen five-year-olds. When she started teaching the violin in 1972, her first class consisted of her children’s five-year-olds school friends. Margaret’s pupils have group lessons. Each group has about a dozen pupils and each lesson last an hour, once a fortnight. In addition, each pupil has one individual lesson a week her. Parents also have to attend the classes. It is important that the parents take an active interest in the lessons. From the earliest lessons pupils learn to play by car. They do not even try to read music until they have playing for several years, and for a long time there is a big difference between their playing and reading of music. Margaret says that her method is not supposed to produce great violists, and always suggests that pupils who perform particularly well should leave and study the violin using more traditional methods. 1.

He had never harder than seen them before, so he began: “My name is Stone, and I’m even harder than stone, so do what I tell you or there’ll be trouble. Don’t try any tricks with me, and then we’ll get on well together” Then he went to each soldier one after the other and asked him his name. “Speak loudly so that everyone can hear you clearly” he said. And don’t forget to call me “sir”.” Each soldier told him his name, until he came to the last one. This man remained silent, and so Captain Stone should at him: “When I ask you a question, answer it! I’ll ask you again: What’s your name, soldier? The soldier was very unhappy, but at last he replied: “My name’s Stonebreaker, sir”, he said nervously. II.

There was a wire fence between the gardens, but it was very old, and the chickens often found holes in it and went through Now Mick wanted a new fence between his garden and his neighbour’s, so Mr. Brown came to build it. Mick said to him, “Please make the fence out of strong wood. And I want a hole in it. Make it big enough for chickens to get into my neighbour’s garden and eat his vegetables, but too small for his to get into mine and eat mine.” III. Listen and fill in the blanks (2 times) A few years ago, there were a lot of hijacking on aero planes, so now people always search passengers and their luggage at airports before they let them get into dangerous things on to the plane with them 6 Đáp án Gợi ý Bài Ôn tập Trình độ B - Số 1: PAPER 1: 30 marks Section A: 20 marks (1x20) 1.B 11.B 2.A 12.C 3.D 13.B 4.C 14.C 5.A 15.A 6.A 16.D 7.A 17.C 8.D 18.B 9.D 19.A 10.D 20.A Section B: 10 marks (2x5) 1 .
