11. Read the article and choose the most suitable title.

a. What makes a memorable TV commercial or marketing campaign? Why do you listen to

or watch certain people like pop stars, and become bored with others? Why is it that you
fear opening certain e-mails, but open others straight away?
b. It’s all about messaging. When a piece of communication is to the point, relevant, and
worthwhile, it moves you, the listener or reader, to action.
c. Moving people is not magic. It’s all about effective communication. Anyone can achieve
it by using a simple tool, the ability to pinpoint why any message works or doesn’t work
and how to improve it. It’s called the 4Cs model, which stands for Comprehension,
Connection, Credibility, and Contagiousness.
d. The 4Cs model was originally developed as an assessment tool for evaluating the impact
of advertising and marketing materials. It has since been used effectively by many famous
brands in order to develop marketing campaigns that really speak to people and build a
connection with consumers.

17. Read the article and select the most suitable title.

a. Have you ever stopped to think about the effect that TV commercials have on kids?
The average child in the United States watches over 40,000 TV commercials every single
year, that’s about 110 a day.
b. For children, what the TV shows is true and real. Their minds don’t understand that
monsters don’t exist, since they’ve just seen one! Likewise, when a TV commercial shows a
breakfast cereal turning kids into champion soccer players, they assume that the cereal
really has those powers.
c. But why is this such a terrible thing? Well, children are actually one of the main factors in
shopping decisions. They put pressure on their parents to buy a particular brand or
product. Unfortunately, many ads sell junk food, like candies and sodas, which contributes
to increasing child obesity.
d. In the United States, TV advertisement is considered the most effective form of mass
marketing. TV networks charge fortunes for commercial broadcasting during popular TV
events. The annual American football game, the Super Bowl is known as much for its
 commercial advertisements as for the game itself. The average cost of a single 30 second
TV spot during this game (seen by 90 million viewers) has reached millions.

a. I always loved Christmas when I was a child. I was the oldest of four children. My sister
and I were the first to stop believing in Santa, but we always used to pretend we did, so we

uncle Bert’s because he had the biggest house in the family. Bert was quite rich, and I was
always jealous of my cousins' presents.
b. I remember my grandmother Mary, sitting in her comfy chair beside the fire. She would

28. Rubric: Read the article and choose the most suitable title.

I used to love going camping when I was a child. We used to go every year, and always to
the same place. Often, other family friends would come with us, and my brother, Laurence
would always invite a friend. After picking a spot on the edge of the forest, we would set up
our tents in a circle with a bonfire in the middle where everyone would tell scary ghost
stories at night. While the others were telling stories, my uncle Michael would always run
and hide in the bushes, and just when the story was ending he would come running out,
scaring the life out of me and my sister Ruth.
I also remember we were always very unlucky with the weather. Even if it had been hot
and sunny for weeks before, as soon as we put up our tent, it would start raining. But it
didn’t used to matter. I remember once, it was raining so hard, all the grown-ups had
retreated to their tents to play cards, but my friend Hannah and I decided to tour the
 campsite on our bikes. When we finally came back, we were soaked from head to toe! Our
parents weren’t very happy.

33. Read the article and choose the most suitable title.

a. Several years ago, Robert Zimmerman made the long trip from his American home to
Scotland. He was on his way to receive an honorary doctorate award by the University of
St. Andrew’s, for his contribution to world literature. The surprising thing was that Mr.
Zimmerman was not a novelist or poet, but a world-famous singer-songwriter better
known as Bob Dylan.
b. Dylan has brought philosophical reflection and critical observation into the folk music
repertoire. The errors of his writing (Ain’t no use to sit and wonder why, babe, if you don't
know by now) reflects the idiom of everyday language and helps his listeners identify with
him on a personal level. In the opinion of the St. Andrew’s academics, there is no
contradiction between thought-provoking lyrics and the failure to respect formal linguistic
conventions.
c. We might hesitate to describe Bob Dylan as a great guitarist, harmonica player, or even
a good singer, but we must congratulate him on his literary achievement and express our
gratitude for his songwriting and his enormous contribution to the folk music tradition.

a. Ernest Henry Shackleton was a primary figure during the Heroic Age of Antarctic
Exploration. In 1898, at the age of 16, he joined the merchant navy and qualified as a
master mariner. Shackleton traveled to the Antarctic several times. His first expedition was
in 1901 on the ship “Discovery,” and then again in 1907 and 1914.
b. During the expedition, his team made many important scientific discoveries and set a
record by coming closer to the South Pole than ever before. Shackleton returned to England
as a hero and was knighted by King Edward VII. He became Sir Ernest Henry Shackleton.
In 1914, Shackleton made his third trip to the Antarctic with the ship “Endurance”. After
their ship was crushed in pack ice, the aim became merely to survive. Over two years,
Shackleton led the crew across Antarctica to a camp on Elephant Island. Months later,
Shackleton took only five crew members to South Georgia Island in search of help. He
finally found help, but it took three more months to rescue the remaining crew on Elephant
Island in August 1916. Everyone survived. Shackleton’s expedition failed, but his crew
would win honor and respect for their ability to survive against the odds.
