Trang 4International Women’s Day takes place every year on 8 March to celebrate the achievements
of women worldwide It started with a protest that took place in New York City in 1908
where women went out onto the streets to demand the right to vote, shorter working hours
and better pay Nowadays, it is a global event that is supported by many charities, NGOs,
governments and academic institutions
In today’s world, it may appear that women have all the same opportunities as men If you
watch the news, you will see women astronauts, women prime ministers and women leaders
in business However, if you look at the statistics you will realise that there’s still a long way
to go A report by BBC a few years ago showed that in the UK, women occupied only
30.9% of the most senior positions in areas like politics and business What is more, latest
figures suggest that British women still earn on average 20% less than men So, although
progress has been made since 1908, there is still a lot to do before we see an equal number of men and women in the top jobs and receiving equal pay
To celebrate International Women’s Day, a lot of special events take place in towns and
cities all over the UK There are exhibitions, theatre shows, talks, walking tours, films,
workshops and so much more All the events are designed not only to celebrate the role of
women in society but also to encourage efforts to achieve gender equality
(Adapted from International Women’s Day by British Council)
Decide whether the following statements are true (T) or false (F).
31 Women protested in New York City in 1908 for some women’s rights
32 The word “it” refers to a protest.
33 In reality, more men are top leaders in politics and business than women
34 The second paragraph mainly discusses the reasons why we need to continue
promoting gender equality
35 International Women’s Day is celebrated in few places in Britain
36 In the UK, special activities are organized for International Women’s Day to achieve
gender equality

Alhambra in Granada It's an amazing old town with Muslim palaces

Task 2: There are six questions in this part For each question, decide whether the statement is True or False You will listen to the recording twice.
I’ve learned several foreign languages as an adult I was able to learn French to make
conversations fluently in 17 days using the following techniques
I set up a routine where I did the same things every day
In the morning, I woke up and wrote out the regular and irregular verb tables for 1.5-2 hours
I managed to get through an entire pad of paper in two weeks I still believe that writing things out by hand is the best way to memorise things
I would run for 45 to 60 minutes in the early afternoon in the French countryside listening to catchy French music Music is a great way to learn the intonation of a language and train your facial muscles as you sing along
In the afternoon, I read “Charlie and the Chocolate Factory” in French Reading children’s
Trang 7books is a great way to learn new languages
I spent at least an hour a day writing basic essays about myself which I had my French friend check for errors
Another good tip is to learn the filler words These are the words and phrases people say all the time between sentences but have no real meanings like alors, en fait, etc These allow you to buy time in a conversation and increase your confidence
After 17 days I left the small town and went to Paris I met a girl in a coffee shop and we started talking After a few minutes, she asked how long I had lived in France When I told her I had been learning French for 17 days, she swore that I had lived in France for at least a year
Hopefully there are some useful tips you can use in your learning Let me know and bonne
chance!
