Question 3 : Read the passage below then pick out ONE best option ( A,B,C or D ) to complete each sentence :
RED KERCHIEFS IN THE COUNTRY OF THE DOLLAR
The story of the Young Pioneer Movement in the United States was written by one of the former American Young
Pioneers, Harry Eisman who lived in the USSR from 1931. In1974 he visited New York, where he went to see his old
school and other places of his childhood.
Young Pioneer detachments were first formed in Chicago in 1923. In the beginning they were young pioneer clubs,
where children learnt revolutionary songs, studied the history of the workers’ movement, went in for sports and games. But
life in the United States was very hard in those days for the workers’ families and the young pioneers took an active part in
the workers’ struggle for their rights.
One of the most important events of those days was the strike of the textile workers in New Jersey, which went on for
eleven months. The owners of the textile mills did everything to break the strike. They engaged strike-breakers to work in
the mills, sent the police to arrest the workers’ pickets around the mills, but the workers did not stop the strike. They were
supported by progressive people all over the country. A powerful national campaign of solidarity was begun. Everywhere
people collected money, clothes and food. The pioneers also took an active part in this struggle. They organized children’s
clubs with kitchens to feed the children of the striking workers.
Young pioneers also visited many flats and collected money and warm clothes.
One day, they decided to visit Passaic and meet the children of the striking workers. Louis Obgiler had a small Ford
wagon. He loved children and decided to help them. On Saturday morning his wagon, all decorated with calls to support the
strike, stood ready to receive the pioneers. It was too small to take all those who wished to go, so some had to remain in New York.
They arrived in Passaic on Sunday and went at once to the strike committee where the children were already waiting for
their New York guests. The New York pioneers had collected enough money to open a kitchen where the children whose
fathers or mothers were on strike could get a hot meal. After the meal the children remained to play, sing songs and listen to
stories about the workers struggling against the capitalists.
In those years in sixty-three cities and towns of the United States there were young pioneer detachments. Pioneers were
given membership cards and before receiving them they took the Young Pioneer Oath: “ I promise to be true to the
Workers’ Red Banner and to the cause it serves. We have one aim in our life- to liberate the working class.”
Every young pioneer meeting began with these words. The young pioneers had red kerchiefs but they could not wear
them in school because pioneer activity was forbidden in schools, they wore them only on the First of May, at the workers’
meeting or in the pioneer camp. 1. Harry Eisman

Eight paragraphs ( 1 – 8 ) : 1.
Vegetables are good for us. They have a lot of vitamins which we need to grow up strong and healthy. There are
many types of vegetables. I love tomatoes, spinach, cucumbers, cabbages and lettuce. Mother always buys vegetables
when she goes to the market. I eat at least one type of vegetables daily. I refuse to eat my meals when I do not see any
vegetable dish on the table. However, that seldom happens as Mother knows that I love vegetables. 2.
The children are excited. Their parents are taking them to the circus today. There will be many exciting acts at the
circus. However, the children are looking forward to the magic show very much. They have heard that the performing
magician is very good. They cannot wait to watch all his magic tricks. They hope that the magician will ask for
volunteers during the show. They want to get a chance to go on stage and watch the magician perform up close. 3.
The examination is coming soon. I have been studying hard every day for the past three weeks. My teacher says that
she is pleased with my hard work. She believes that I can pass the examination with flying colors. I am happy to hear
that my teacher has confidence in me. I shall try to pass my examination well to show her that I have really prepared
myself well. I also want to pass my examination so that I can get promoted to a good class next year. 4.
Two teams of seven people each will play against each other and try to score as many goals as possible. A goal is
scored when a player throws the ball over and through the net that is guarded by a player from the other team. With
all the excitement, the rules are sometimes broken but there are always two umpires at each match to see that the game is play in a fair manner. 5.
Telephones are useful and convenient for many reasons. People who like to talk with their families, friends and
business associates cannot possibly carry on their activities without fast communication. However, it is in
emergencies that the telephone really proves its usefulness. When there is a fire, or when someone is suddenly taken
ill, the first thing one thinks of is, “ Where is the nearest telephone?” so that help can be summoned. 6.
The doctor then proceeds to examine the patient. He may take the patient’s temperature, check his blood pressure,
listen to his heart and lungs, and examine whatever affected parts of his body. Often he is able to make a diagnosis
right away and prescribe the necessary treatment. 7.
No one goes through life without handling money. Millions of people work hard year in and year out to earn money.
Some people are born into money, some marry into money, others inherit money. Millions buy lottery tickets hoping
to win money. Some people even break the law in order to get money. Everybody wants to have money because it makes life easy. 8.
For many years in the United Kingdom, it was hard to find a school in some urban areas where children were not
