Mark your answers on the separate answer sheet. line 16 line 33 Many trees in the Brackham area were brought down in the terrible storms that March. The town itself lost two great lime trees from the former market square. The disappearance of such prominent features had altered the appearance of the town centre entirely, to the annoyance of its more conservative inhabitants. Among the annoyed, under more normal circumstances, would have been Chief Inspector Douglas Pelham, head of the local police force. But at the height of that week’s storm, when the wind brought down even the mature walnut tree in his garden, Pelham had in fact been in no fit state to notice. A large and healthy man, he had for the first time in his life been seriously ill with an attack of bronchitis. When he first complained of an aching head and tightness in his chest, his wife, Molly, had tried to persuade him to go to the doctor. Convinced that the police force could not do without him, he had, as usual, ignored her and attempted to carry on working. Predictably, though he wouldn't have listened to anyone who tried to tell him so, this had the effect of fogging his memory and shortening his temper. It was only when his colleague, Sergeant Lloyd, took the initiative and drove him to the doctor's door that he finally gave in. By that time, he didn’t have the strength left to argue with her. In no time at all, she was taking him along to the chemist’s to get his prescribed antibiotics and then home to his unsurprised wife who sent him straight to bed. When Molly told him, on the Thursday morning, that the walnut tree had been brought down during the night, Pelham hadn't been able to take it in. On Thursday evening, he had asked weakly about damage to the house, groaned thankfully when he heard there was none, and pulled the sheets over his head. It wasn't until Saturday, when the antibiotics took effect, his temperature dropped and he got up, that he realised with a shock that the loss of the walnut tree had made a permanent difference to the appearance of the living-room. The Pelhams’ large house stood in a sizeable garden. It had not come cheap, but even so Pelham had no regrets about buying it. The leafy garden had created an impression of privacy. Now, though, the storm had changed his outlook. Previously, the view from the living-room had featured the handsome walnut tree. This had not darkened the room because there was also a window on the opposite wall, but it had. provided interesting patterns of light and shade that disguised the true state of the worn furniture that the family had brought with them from their previous house. With the tree gone, the room seemed cruelly bright, its worn furnishings exposed in all their shabbiness. And the view from the window didn’t bear looking at. The tall house next door, previously hidden by the tree, was now there, dominating the outlook with its unattractive purple bricks and external pipes. It seemed to have a great many upstairs windows, all of them watching the Pelhams’ every movement. ‘Doesn't it look terrible?’ Pelham croaked to his wife. But Molly, standing in the doorway, sounded more pleased than dismayed. ‘That's what I've been telling you ever since we came here. We have to buy a new sofa, whatever it costs.”Paper 1 Reading Why were some people in Brackham annoyed after the storm? A The town looked different.

When I met her, she'd had a typical day for the weeks leading up to next month’s World Championships: a day's teaching at a local schoo! followed by a training session in the local supermarket car park. was surprised to hear about her training venue. “Don’t you get strange looks?’ I asked her. ‘I'm too involved in what I'm doing ~ concentrating on my movements and my feet — to see anything else,’ she said. ‘I might notice cars slow down out of the corner of my eye, but that's all.” “My whole life now is all about making sure I’m at my absolute best for the Championships,’ says Kendra. B } These fourth World Championships and they are guaranteed to be the biggest ever, with 27 nations taking part. “We'll have home support behind us, which is so special,’ she says. ‘And it’s important that the reputation of netball in this country should be improved.

People will expect us to start the tournament with a good game.” ‘Their first game is against Barbados and it comes immediately after the opening ceremony. cr They have lots of ability.” are her ‘The England team are currently ranked fourth in the world. But, as Kendra points out, the World Championships will be tough. “You have to push yourself to play each day, there's no rest between games as in a series. And you can still win an international series if you lose the first game. [JH2) In the fifteen years since she has been playing at top level, the sport has become harder, faster. On court, players are more aggressive. “You don't do all that training not to come out a winner,’ says Kendra. ‘Gs |We're all friendlier after the gam Netball is also taking a far more scientific approach to fitness testing. “Ttis essential that we all think and train like world- class players,’ says Kendra. Sirs I see my role as supporting and encouraging the rest of the team.” ‘From the very beginning, my netball career hhas_always been carefully planned,’ she says ‘(a5 Doubtless she will coach young players in the future, but at the moment her eyes are firmly set on her last big event.

Jo Foley provides a taste of the trends for this year’s followers of fashion. EY Ned Ingham: Dress Designer Ned Ingham makes dreamy, romantic wedding dresses. ‘People would do well to avoid the traditional, rather stiff dresses and the ‘filly’ look in favour of much simpler styles,” he explains, Ingham hhas been drawing and designing wedding dresses since he was a schoolboy. Then, at the age of 16, he enrolled at fashion school, where he gained the technical skills to cut and construct clothes. But you do not have to be a bride to own an Ingham dress: he also designs long, classic evening dresses, given a fresh touch by up-to-the-minute colours and fabrics. For the less adventurous, Ingham’s designs include a classic summer navy-blue suit, the centrepiece of the Englishwoman’s wardrobe for most of the 20th century. But in his hands, it looks as new as tomorrow. GF] Satty Quail: Jeweller Although she once worked for an art dealer, Sally ‘Quail has had no formal training in jewellery. It was ‘only when she could not find an engagement ring she liked that she decided to design her own. The resulting enquiries encouraged her to set up as @ designer in 1990, Now her pieces are sought out by many stars of stage and screen. Her signature style is large semi-precious stones set in gold to make ‘magnificent necklaces, bracelets and rings fashioned after those worn in the 18th century. However, she has recently begun to use the most precious stone of all ~ diamonds. ‘It must reflect my age,” says 36- year-old Quail. ‘I reached that moment in every woman's life when she wants a diamond and that is when I began working with them.” Lily Grimson: Handbag Designer Just four years after setting up in the fiercely competitive fashion business, Lily Grimson, with only an introductory course in art and design behind her, has had two of her creations selected for a major design exhibition. Whatever the shape and form of her designs, they are never ignored. All of Grimson’s fashion bags are handmade in the UK. ‘The Grimson handbag is not simply a container ~ the bags are full of glamour, whether fashioned from the finest calfskin or the heaviest silk. A combination of chic and care makes a Grimson bag something special D) Peter Little: Hairdresser For over 20 years, Peter Little has taken his scissors to some of the world’s top heads. Everyone who is anyone has had their hair styled by this man. ‘Most ‘women want real-looking hair and a style they can manage at home,’ he says. So his approach is a novel one ~ to ensure that his clients never appear as if they have just walked out of a salon, But this carefree attitude and casual look does not come cheap ~ £250 for the first appointment, and there’s a three-month waiting list. Trading on his celebrity, Peter has produced his own range of hairdryers and other styling equipment. Now, those who can’t make it to his salon can create their own styles back at home. Penny Pratt: Florist In addition to running her tiny shop, Penny Pratt is a flower consultant for a large chain of supermarkets and provides floral ideas to a number of top restaurants. All of this is good going for someone who has no floristry qualifications and gave up her job as a teacher 10 years ago in order to do ‘something different’. And her simple, yet incredibly modern, creations have begun to capture every design prize in the flower business, which has helped her in setting up her own London Flower School. She has recently combined her skills on extremely successful lecture trips to Japan and the USA. She says, ‘Flower arrangements are much simpler these days. Keep them simple but strong and don’t have too many leaves ~ they are too large and architectural. For wedding bouquets, whatever your arrangement, the golden rule remains: the flowers must be of the same species.” 13Test 1 PAPER 2 WRITING (1 hour 20 minutes) Part 1 You must answer this question.
