    SECTION 2. Reading (30 minutes) 
    Part 1. 
    Read a teenager called Jim’s blog about moving away from the city to live in 
    the countryside. Write ‘T’ for True, and ‘F’ for False. 
    A year ago, just before the summer holidays, my parents announced that they were 
    planning to move out of the city to live in the countryside. They said they were tired 
    of their stressful lives in the city, and the high prices. My mother’s a writer, so if 
    there’s an internet connection, she can work wherever she is. My father’s a musician, 
    so it isn’t that simple for him, but he explained that he hoped he could find work 
    locally, teaching children to play the piano and the guitar. 
    Well, the news was completely unexpected, and of course my sister and I weren’t 
    interested in hearing about all the advantages of being out of the city – the open 
    spaces, the wildlife, enjoying the changing seasons, no pollution, all that sort of 
    thing. We didn’t want to leave our friends, or all the facilities available to us. My 


    63 
    sister’s mad about skateboarding, and we both suddenly realised that our school 
    wasn’t too bad, despite all the homework! 
    Instead of listening to us and changing their minds, my parents insisted that it was a 
    great idea. According to them, we were young enough to handle such a big change 
    in our lives fairly easily, and they said they had dreamed of doing this for years. 
    Even worse, they told us they had found a big house in a small village, and that they 
    were selling the flat we lived in so they could buy it. My sister and I imagined it 
    must be a ruin. After all, how could we possibly afford a big house? But actually, 
    we could, because houses are reasonably cheap in the countryside compared to those 
    in the city, and when they showed us pictures of it online, we saw that, in fact, it 
    looked pretty nice. 
    A month later, here we all are, in a tiny village thirty kilometres from the nearest 
    town. We’ll have to get up early to catch a bus to school when the new term starts, 
    which I’m definitely not looking forward to. My sister’s taken up mountain biking 
    with some of the local kids, so she’s happy. I still miss my friends, but some of them 
    are coming to stay next week, and I’ve made some new ones, too. One of them’s 
    into making animated films, and I’ve discovered that’s really interesting. Who 
    knows, maybe I’ll be a famous film-maker one day! 
    1. The narrator's parents decided to move to the countryside due to the low cost of 
    living and their desire for a less stressful life. ____ 
    2. Both of the narrator's parents work remotely, which makes it easier for them to 
    relocate.
    ____ 
    3. Houses in the countryside are generally more expensive compared to those in the 
    city.
    ____ 
    4. The narrator's sister has started mountain biking with some local kids and is 
    enjoying it.
    ____ 
    5. The narrator's friends are not interested in visiting them in the countryside.
    ____
