Part I. Listening (14 points-max)
Tapescript
Task 1. Listen to the tape about girl’s life and answer if these statements are true or false.
My name is Ann. I'm in the eighth form at school, where I'm studying Eng¬lish, French and many other interesting subjects. My elder sister, Betty, is studying History at one of the univer¬sities. Betty can organize her time wisely, when I do not know what order I should do things in. I find it hard to get up on time, and usu¬ally I do not get enough sleep. It’s not useful for my health. I have to wind two alarm-clocks to make sure I do not oversleep.
My sister, an early riser, is awake by 7 o'clock, refreshed and full of energy. While I'm wandering round the kitchen, fighting the urge to go back to bed, my sister man¬ages to have a quick shower, make her bed, put on make-up, do her hair, eat a full breakfast and set off to the university. It takes me an hour and a half to get ready. I have a hasty bite and rush out of the house. Even if I catch a bus at once I still arrive at school 15 minutes late, which always makes me feel guilty. I know that my lifestyle is dangerously chaotic. I should change it as soon as possible. My mother says that regularity in life will help promote my health. And I agree with her. It could change my life to the best.
