5. Administration rules
During the Assessment cover all visual materials like, diagram, schemes, posters and maps
that can serve as prompts for the learners.
At the beginning of the Assessment read out the instructions and inform the learners about
the assessment duration. Remind learners that they are not allowed to talk with each other during
the Summative Assessment. After the instructions, make sure they have understood given
instructions and ask if they have any questions before the start of the assessment.
Ensure that the learners are working individually and not helping each other. During the
Summative Assessment learners should not have any access to additional resources that can help
them, for example, dictionaries (excluding the cases when it is allowed in specification).
Recommend learners to cross the wrong answers instead of using an eraser.
During the assessment you can answer learners’ questions, regarding the instructions and the
assessment duration. You should not spell, paraphrase or provide any information that could give
the learner an advantage.
Always tell the learners that they have 5 minutes left before the end of the Summative
Assessment.
Tell the learners to stop writing and put down their pens/pencils on the desks at the end of
the Summative Assessment.
6. Moderation and marking
All teachers use the same version of the mark scheme. During the moderation process it is
necessary to check learner sample papers with the marks awarded to ensure there are no deviations
from the standardized mark scheme.

They can be expensive and are possibly bad for us. You can spend a lot of money if you use
your mobile a lot. According to some scientists, if we go on using mobiles, we’ll cook our brains.
Some people even say that radiation from mobiles causes cancer.
Teenagers are among the biggest users of mobiles, and ‘texting’ is creating a new language
full of abbreviations such as ‘How RU?’ in Japan, Surveys show teenagers are reading less and
mobile use is affecting the marks of secondary school learners. A big problem in Britain is crime.
Last year half a million British teenagers were victims of mobile phone theft.
As technology improves, mobiles can do more and more. If you have one of the new
multimedia mobiles, you can log on the net, pay for things, play games, interact with TV programs
and take photos to send to your friends.

Task. Read the article.
Holidays in Space
The World Tourism Organization says that space will soon be a popular place to go on
holiday – possibly by 2020. One Japanese company is getting ready. They are planning a space
holiday centre. It will look like a bicycle wheel and have a hotel for 100 people and a theme park. It
will travel round the Earth at a height of 300 km. The company hopes the centre will be ready in
2017. The company chairman says that flying to the centre will probably be quicker than flying
from Hong Kong to Singapore. When they are on board of the centre, the tourists will take short
trips to the Moon or go for walks in space.
An American hotel group is also thinking of building a hotel, called the Lunar Hotel. This
will be on the Ьoon. Most of the hotel will be under the ground so it won’t become too hot or too
cold. The rooms will look just like they do on Earth. The guests will eat normal food for lunch. The
cooks will just push a button to mix dried food with water to become an instant meal!

Task. Read the text carefully and answer the questions.
Hurricanes
Have you ever been to a hurricane? Hurricanes are serious weather storms. They can do a
lot of damage. But what is a hurricane? Another name for a hurricane is a tropical cyclone. A
hurricane consists of thunderstorms, torrential rains, and waves with winds up to 75 mph or higher.
A hurricane is a tropical storm that starts out in the ocean and gathers speed and strength as it
travels.
When the winds inside these storms reach 39 mph, they are given names. An international
committee developed the list of names. Hurricanes alternate back and forth between male and
female names. Giving the hurricanes names makes it easier for meteorologists to identify and track
certain storms. This makes it easier to announce hurricane warnings, as well.
The best place to be during a hurricane is indoors and away from windows and doors. If the
hurricane is very bad, you will probably be asked to evacuate and move to safer ground. It is
important to keep a bag ready that contains fresh water, long-lasting food, first aid kit, flashlight,
rain gear, and other items that would be useful if you had to leave your home for a few days.
Part 1. Choose the correct answer.
Example: 0. According to the author the waves to form a hurricane should be..
A) less than 75 mph
B) less than 39 mph
C) up to 75 mph or higher
D) up to 39 mph
34
1. According to the author how fast does a tropical storm need to be moving in order to receive a
name?
A) 25 mph
B) Over 39 mph
C) 100 mph
D) Over 76 mph [1]
2. Where does the author write this informationto the question above?
A) Second paragraph

Task. You will be given a card which asks you to retell a short story about a particular situation.
You should include your ideas while telling it. You will be given 1 minute to prepare your talk and
then 1-2 minutes to speak. Your classmates prepare the questions to ask you on the topic.
Learners take turns in retelling the stories from the cards.
Card 1
Romanian Avalanche
In 2003, a British politics student named Ken Jones
took a holiday from his studies and traveled to
Romania, where he wanted to scale Moldoveanu
Peak. He almost made it to the summit when the earth
shook and a pair of avalanches dumped tons of snow on
top of him, trapping him helpless on the mountain. He
managed to walk ten miles through the freezing cold
over the next three days to a remote Transylvanian
village, where a local doctor saved his leg and his life.
Card 2
Indonesian Tsunami
The massive tsunami that was in Indonesia on the
day after Christmas in 2004 still stands as one of
the most devastating natural disasters in recorded
history. In all of the chaos as waves up to 100 feet
high covered the Indian Ocean coastline, some
interesting stories came to light. One story was
about a small boy named Martunis, who was
washed away while playing soccer in Indonesia
and spent the next 18 days floating in the ocean.
He was finally rescued and taken to a hospital.
Card 3
Frankenstein
Radical scientist Victor Frankenstein and his equally brilliant protegee Igor
Strausman share a noble vision of aiding humanity through their
groundbreaking research into immortality. But Victor's experiments go too far,
and his obsession has horrifying consequences. Only Igor can bring his friend
back from the brink of madness and save him from his monstrous creation.

Card 4
Lion King
A young lion prince is born in Africa, thus making his uncle Scar the
second in line to the throne. Scar plots with the hyenas to kill King
Mufasa and Prince Simba, thus making himself King. The King is
killed and Simba is led to believe by Scar that it was his fault, and so
flees the kingdom in shame. After years of exile he is persuaded to
return home to overthrow the usurper and claim the kingdom as his
own thus completing the "Circle of Life".

Reading
Task. Read the text and fill in the table below with necessary information.
There are five main types of nutrients we need from our food. These are carbohydrates,
proteins, fats, minerals and vitamins. A sixth important part of our diet is roughage or fibre.
Carbohydrates
Carbohydrates are mainly used by the body as fuel. Digestion breaks them into a simple sugar
called glucose. This is carried in the blood to provide energy for all our body parts.
Proteins
Proteins perform many important jobs in the body. Your body needs them to grow, and to make
repairs when it is damaged.
Fats
The body needs some fat to build its parts and keep them working properly. Fat can also be used as
fuel, for energy.
Fibre
Fibre does not provide nutrition, but it helps bulk up waste so that it passes easily through the body.
People who do not consume enough roughage are more likely to suffer from constipation, which
can sometimes lead to more serious diseases of the intestines.
Minerals
Minerals are simple substances such as calcium, iron and salt. You need to eat a lot of mineral-rich
food when your body is growing.
Vitamins
Vitamins are special substances that your body needs in tiny amounts but cannot make itself.

Transcript for term 4
Have you ever thought how strange fashion is? People tell us what clothes to wear. That’s
weird. Fashion stores tell us what is “in” this summer or this winter. People then buy the same
clothes and look like everyone else because they want to feel trendy. The thing is, fashion is about
being an individual, but then we all wear clothes that are the same as everyone else’s! Keeping up
with fashion is expensive these days. Everyone is into brand fashion. Have you seen how much the
most fashionable sneakers are? How can kids afford those? The craziest fashion is the luxury
brands. People spend a month’s salary, or more, on a handbag or watch. That’s crazy. I’m happy
with an unknown brand at half the price. I don’t mind being unfashionable.
