LISTENING
Listening comprehension. For items 1 to 10, listen to a talk by Ian Gerard, a photographer, and decide whether the statements 1 to 10 are true or false according to the text you hear. You will hear the text twice. You have 20 seconds to study the statements. Now we begin. Good evening everyone. My name is Ian Gerard and I'm a photographer. I'm here to tell you about my career so far and also about my new book. I often get asked if I studied photography at university and people are sometimes surprised that I didn't. I wanted to, but my parents wouldn't let me, so I had to choose something else. I loved history, but my marks weren't very good, but I was keen on geography too, so that is what I did in the end. I actually think it's made me a better photographer and has given my work a broader context. On my degree course in my final year, we studied all aspects of the development of cities, and we had to do a presentation. We could do what we wanted. I chose street markets for mine, but a friend did his on the growth of urban transport networks. On graduation, I went to the USA. I knew I wanted to work as a photographer, so I'd sent pictures to news organizations and advertising agencies, hoping I might get something in a brochure or even a newspaper. In fact, it was a magazine that noticed my pictures, and I worked for it for a year. I learned a huge amount, but what I really wanted to do was see the USA for myself. It was an amazing six months. I started in the baking heat of summer on the east coast and finished my journey in the mountains. Anyway, I came back to Britain at the beginning of spring and published my US photos in a small book. I earned just enough to finance my next trip, round the UK. I wanted to explore the relationship between people and place. Interestingly, in the last few decades, many photographers from the UK haven't done much on fishing communities here, so that's what I did. They've tended to focus on family life and inner city communities instead. The resulting photos I'm putting together for my new book. My book won't be in the shops until March, though there's an exhibition of my pictures touring the UK from January. It's funny, I really wanted to call my new book Visions, but apparently there's already one called that, so my publisher suggested the title In Focus, which I thought was horrible. In the end, we settled for Images. Now I'm planning my next tour. I wasn't sure which theme to choose this time. I initially thought I would look at lakes and mountains, but then I saw a tractor in a field and I knew I'd do farming. I've decided to use a special camera to create very large photos, which I'm hoping to exhibit next year. You have 20 seconds to check your answers. Now listen to the text again.

Choose the correct answer to answer questions 2-6. You will hear the text only once. You now have 25 seconds to study the questions. Now we begin. Bless you. Are you okay? It's just a cold. I had a bad headache this morning, but I feel better now. Listen, I'm really sorry about last night. What do you mean? At the party, I got kind of angry at Brad. He was really annoying me. Oh, I think he's very nice. Yeah, women always think so. Don't worry, Mark. Brad's not my type. Okay listen, tomorrow's your last day in San Francisco. I want to do something special. What would you like to do? I don't mind, you choose. How about a boat trip around the bay? We could do that in the morning and then have a nice dinner in the evening. That sounds fantastic. It's too bad you can't stay longer. Yes, it's a pity. This week has gone so quickly. I feel I've just arrived and now I'm going home. Well, I'm going to make sure tomorrow is a really special day. You have 20 seconds to check your answers. This is the end of the listening comprehension part. You have one minute to complete your answer. This is the end of the listening comprehension part.

Reading TASK 1
How owls helped me conquer my fear of the dark Polly Atkins was able to conquer her fears and leant to love darkness and the night As a child I was afraid of the dark, as so many children are. Not the dark in and of itself, but what I was certain it contained: bad spirits, bad people, monsters with ill intent. The dark hid creatures with talons and teeth, it let curses slip out of buildings or hedges and attach to a child walking past. I always stayed close any circle of light at home, imagining it as a kind of shield. At night, I fell asleep with the soft amber glow of a small lamp, the hallway light still on and my door slightly open. I needed to see things and that gave a sense of safety and security. I borrowed Jill Tomlinson’s book The Owl Who Was Afraid of the Dark from the library and fell in love with the baby barn owl, Plop. He thinks “dark is nasty” and won’t go hunting with his parents. He learns through others who love the dark that it can be exciting, kind, fun, necessary, beautiful and super. I identified with Plop, but I wasn’t convinced about the wonderfulness of the dark. At the same time, I read and reread Phyllis Arkle’s Magic at Midnight, in which all the animals depicted on all the signs of a village’s many pubs climb down from their frames as the clock strikes 12. These stories reframed night-time as a magical space where anything could happen. I began to see the possibilities of the dark, but I still preferred to meet it with a safety cordon of light. For a long time I lived in east London, where atmospheric light pollution meant that night was never even close to dark. I used to love how the streetlight threw its orange glow into my room, like a city-wide nightlight. All this changed radically for me when I moved to the Lake District. Now I love our skies and soft and golden sunsets without unnatural illumination. There I had to face and live with real dark for the first time in my life. I spent more time outdoors and more time at night. I learned the wonder of a starful sky, how the longer you look up the more appear and the deeper you can see into the fabric of the universe. On frosty evenings I would wrap myself up in my granny’s sheepskin coat and lie in back yard to the soundtrack of owls calling from the woods. I learned to love the dark and everything that lives in it and needs it. Learning to love the dark changed my relationship with night-time. I always struggled to fall asleep, even as a small child. I would read or listen to music to lull myself into the kind of space where sleep might enter, but it was never guaranteed. In my teens, I was diagnosed with a serious genetic condition. It caused a host of symptoms, including fatigue and widespread pain. I found myself needing more and more sleep to feel even slightly rested, but was less and less able to slip into it. Night became a space of a new kind of fear: fear of never being able to sleep, of being too exhausted to move or think the next day. I tried every strategy I could to shut myself down. I found it helped if I accepted wakefulness and gave up trying to sleep. I would circle the garden when everyone else was sleeping. I would moonbathe. I would write. And eventually, this extreme insomnia retreated. I soon learned to see the owls as companions. Tawny owls had been a feature of my life in the Lake District since the beginning, coming down from the woods at night hooting and calling around our cottage. But during the lockdown of 2020, they took on a deeper significance. My husband and I took the same walk regularly in the evening, and most days met a tawny owl, sunbathing on a low branch. I determined to find out more about tawny owls, to be a better neighbour. In the spring of 2021, we were rewarded by seeing owlets for the first time. In the midst of fear and despair they brought us great joy. Sitting in the woods at twilight as the owlets leapt around in the treetops, I thought of how I used to take it as a slight and snub when people said I reminded them of an owl, with my sharp nose and big eyes. I did not want to be owlish, but I do have a lot in common with an owl. We are both at our best in the night-time; enjoy a good bath; are hypersensitive to sound and light. Our ears are asymmetrical on our heads and our stomachs will get blocked by indigestible food. As a result of this affinity with the beautiful bird I wrote a book The Company of Owls, which I myself call a nocturnal love song to the owls that surround my Lake District home. I do hope this book brings the love of owls right from my heart to yours.

Reading TASK 1
Discovering your ancestral roots: a path to truly feel like yourself Greta Solomon, a writer, gained a richer sense of self when she discovered her ancestors were gifted storytellers too. I’ve always been proud of my identity as a person of Black Caribbean origin. My mother had left Jamaica aged 10 to join her father and stepmother in England. Similarly, my father left the tiny Caribbean island of Nevis as a teenager, to study maths and engineering. They met, married and settled in a suburb of London, where I was born and raised. I knew the stories of my paternal great-grandfather who was born at the tail end of slavery in St Kitts, the twin island to Nevis. He grew up to be a successful entrepreneur in the construction industry and was instrumental in setting up the first trade union in St Kitts. That was all well documented. But I knew nothing of my African ancestry before the transatlantic slave trade until I decided to take a DNA test that enables you to discover the specific ethnicity of your mother’s maternal line, up to 2,000 years ago. Three weeks later, I found out that I’m descended from the Fang and Tikar people of Cameroon and Gabon. So much of popular psychology focuses on the need to individuate and self-actualise. But the need to belong to a race, culture and community is an integral part of our sense of self. So, how is identity formed? “Identity development is an extremely complex process,” explains Dr Sarah Gaither. “These include where you’re living, messages your parents, peers or teachers give you, and encounters and experiences where someone may question you or notice something different about you. Usually, these encounters cause someone to go and learn about whatever that identity or difference may be. They either accept that part of themselves by learning to internalise it, or decide that the identity doesn’t match their sense of self.” Since the age of six, I’d known I was a writer, after a teacher praised a story I wrote. My mother had taught me the alphabet before I went to school and I quickly started reading. She helped nurture my love of literature by taking me to the library every week. By the age I knew I wanted to be a journalist. I was also fascinated by the mechanics of songwriting, and would listen to Madonna songs on repeat, pulling apart the lyrics to understand how to construct my own songs. I’ve been a working journalist for eight years, but I don’t think my Mum has ever read a single article I’ve written – she’s always showed zero interest in this core part of me. Discovering that the Tikar people of Cameroon were known for their artistry and storytelling made me realise my deep-rooted love of writing was grounded in something bigger than me. According to the Roots Revealed blog, many Tikar people were gifted in writing, acting, dancing and music. Despite my mother’s lack of interest I could believe there was a set of ancestors who would have embraced my writerly self and encouraged me to share my stories. Surely, finding and discovering your ancestral roots can bring a new way of thinking about your identities, and past and present belonging. But I was surprised to learn that from the point of view of science there is no such thing as race – it’s a social construct. A research carried out by Dr Keon West suggests that generally, people are good at the things they practise, regardless of their ancestry. He writes, “That said, it can be helpful to remember that the world is full of a large variety of diverse people, and that what is considered weird in one culture is perfectly normal in another. British men, according to stereotypes, notoriously hate dancing. A British man who can’t resist the call of dance might take comfort in discovering that he is part Cuban, Trinidadian or Russian, as this can remind him that there are places in the world where dancing is a normal, valued trait in men. This would transform him, in his own mind, from an odd Brit, to a dancer from a line of dancers.” After leaving her homeland, my mother never returned to Jamaica. She said the circumstances of her leaving were too sad to ever return. Shortly after taking that DNA test, I visited Jamaica for the first time, finally able to piece together some parts of my and my mother’s history. Of her life, I have fragments – photos, stories, hearsay – and events forever etched in my consciousness that remain largely unspoken. I think I will be able to put them all together and learn more about her. Knowing her genetic beginning (and mine) gives me something else I can grasp on to.
