Questions 26-30 [3 point
for the correct answer]
26. According to the text find
the worst mistake for a visitor
"Unwritten Rules" of Great
Britain Good and bad manners make up the social rules of a country.
They are not always easy to learn because they are often not
written down in books. For example, British women did not go into
pubs at the beginning of this century because it was not considered
respectable behaviour for a woman. Now both women and men drink
freely in pubs and women are fully integrated into public life.
Visitors to Britain are often surprised by the strange behaviour of
the inhabitants. One of the worst mistakes is to get on a bus
without waiting your turn in the queue. The other people in the
queue will probably complain loudly! Queuing is a national habit
and it is considered polite or good manners to wait for your
turn.
A)
eating in the street at lunch time.
B)
complaining loudly in the bus.
C)
smoking in public places.
D)
entering the bus without waiting
your
turn.
E)
queuing in the shops.
27.
According to the text find the meaning of the word
“ban”
In some
countries it is considered bad manners to eat in the street,
whereas in Britain it is common to see people having a snack whilst
walking down the road, especially at lunchtime. Britons may be
surprised to see young children in restaurants in the evening
because children are not usually taken out to restaurants late at
night. In recent years smoking has received a lot of bad publicity,
and fewer British people now smoke. Many companies have banned
smoking from their offices and canteens. Smoking is now banned on
the London Underground, in cinemas and theaters and most
buses.

do
something.
B) to say something is illegal
or not
allowed.

Traditionally English people have three meals a day: breakfast,
lunch and dinner. Breakfast is served in the morning. It used to be
a large meal with cereal, eggs and bacon, sausages, tomatoes. But

healthy. Nowadays, Britain's most popular breakfast consists of
cereal, toast with marmalade, juice and yogurt with a cup of tea or
coffee. Lunch is a light
meal. Most people have no time to go back home for lunch so they
eat at school, cafes, pubs or
restaurants.

English breakfast big?
A)
because they are foodie
B)
because they don’t like restaurants
C)
because they are busy the whole day
D)

E)
because they want to save money
29. At
the beginning of this century medical scientists made a surprising
discovery: that we are built not just of flesh blood. They were
able to demonstrate that we all have an internal "body clock" which
regulates the rise and fall of our body energies, making us
different from one day to the next. The idea of an internal "body
clock" should not be surprising, since the lives of most living
things are dominated by the 24-hour night-and day
cycle.
What
does ‘‘body clock’’ mean?
A) the
reaction to the body changes
B) the
clock trademark
C) the
new clock trademark
D) the
fitness program
E) the
alarm clock
30. The
most obvious feature of this cycle is the way we feel tired and
fall asleep at night and become awake during the day. If the
24-hour rhythm is interrupted, most people experience unpleasant
side effects. As well as the daily rhythm of sleeping and waking
weal so have other rhythms which last longer that one day and which
influence widely as of our lives.
What
problems can people have if their 24-hour rhythm is
interrupted?
A)
because of bad mood
B) be
happy and healthy
C) to
work during the day
D) have
health disorder
E) feel
emotional problems
