Questions 11-15
For each question, choose the correct answer.
Ana Ronson
Singer-songwriter
Singer-songwriter Ana Ronson grew up in Ireland. Although her parents weren’t
musicians, there was always music in the house. Her grandfather played the guitar,
and taught Ana and her brother to play.
The first time Ana tried singing in front of an audience was at school - she was so
nervous that her teacher had to lead her off the stage. This teacher suggested that
joining the school theatre club might make her more confident. After attending the
club for a while, she happily sang with 0 other students at an end-of-term concert.
A year later, her brother, who was in a band, asked her to write a song for them, and
so she wrote her first ever song, Falling Stars. Writing it took just three days and she
enjoyed it so much that she enrolled on a songwriting course run by a professional
songwriter. Despite being the youngest student, she already knew more about
music than many of the others. But Ana says the teacher didn’t listen to anything
she said, and she wrote Something to Say about how annoyed this made her feel.
She posted this song online, and it became a huge success. She was delighted
when people left comments saying that they loved it and found new meanings
in the words each time they heard them. Joss Alton, the owner of a recording
company called Isotope Music, flew from his office on the other side of Ireland to
ask her to join Isotope. At first she wasn’t sure; she didn’t know anything about
the company, and didn’t want someone telling her what to sing. However, Joss
persuaded her this wouldn’t happen, and a short time later she performed at a
concert in Dublin arranged by Isotope. They sold all the tickets very quickly and
it was an amazing evening.
Ana says she’s less interested in writing songs about when life's good; when it's not,
there's more for her to say. One of her favourite songs is Decision, written about why
her brother stopped singing for a while, and how unhappy it made him. While she
hopes that fans will like her songs, her aim is to write about personal experiences
that matter to her.

Steve Dalway’s cycle ride
Steve Dalway has recently completed an amazing bike ride between the US
cities of Los Angeles and Boston, a distance of nearly 5,500 km. He and
ten other cyclists took part in a trip organised by a company that provided a
mechanic, planned the accommodation and route, and carried the cyclists’ bags.
| se Even with these, the ride involved a huge amount of effort.
Steve had already completed another long cycle ride in Europe. [#7
For example, he knew that on any ride, eating properly is important. When you
don’t eat enough, your ability to recover after hard exercise is reduced. For this
reason, he always made sure he had a large breakfast before setting off every
morning. [78 The sight of the hotel at the end of the day was still very
welcome, however!
One of the toughest times for the riders in the US was when the route climbed
high into the Rocky Mountains. By the end of that part of the ride, Steve had
climbed an amazing 28,000 m in total.
19 An early section of the ride, for instance, took the group of cyclists
through the Mojave desert, where the high temperatures made them feel as if
they were in an oven. In the desert, Steve had to drink four litres of liquid every
40 km in order to keep going.
The cyclists used paper maps and had electronic devices to record the distances
they travelled. So that everyone knew what they'd be facing the next day, a big
map was displayed every evening in the hotel where the group were staying.
20 | At first the cyclists were disappointed when the black line drawn
on the map by the organisers only moved forward by small amounts, despite
all the day's work. At the end of the ride, however, they felt very proud of what
| they'd achieved.
50Reading
He therefore had an idea of what to expect on this one.
It also allowed them to see the progress they had made.
He was surprised that he had gone so fast.
Doing that gave him the energy he needed to keep going.
It also arranged stops every 50 km for snacks and drinks.
This ride would be 1,000 km longer.
As a result, Steve's family knew how he was feeling each day.
There were other challenges, too.
