“Exploring Berlin” 20
With its fascinating history and its currently in-vogue urban scene, Berlin really is a city of
contrasts, and after all those scenic strolls it’s time for some art. Berlin’s “museum for the
present” Hamburger Bahnhof has a variety of work from contemporary European artists as well
as a large collection of works by Andy Warhol. Housed in an impressive 18th-century railway
terminal, the museum is a sleek, clever refit of a classical building. If you think it’s impressive
by day, be sure to stroll by at night when it’s bathed in a striking blue light.

For fantastic shopping, KaDeWe is Europe’s largest shopping centre. It’s also suitably glam
with a Reichstag style glass dome and an entire top floor devoted to gourmet foods, including
over 100 varieties of wurst-sausage heaven! From Dior to Diesel, KaDeWe has a good mix of
the affordable and the sky high.

But if shopping centres leave you cold, the Mitte area might be more your scene. The new face
of the former east, this area hosts the highest density of clubs in the city and is packed with art
galleries, cool shops and bars. The Kreuzberg neighbourhood is especially well-known for
alternative culture blending a hip, too-cool-for-school scene with a cosmopolitan vibe. Head to
the Turkish coffee shops for some serious people watching and don’t forget to take a classic
European novel with you – there are plenty of great second-hand bookstores around if you left
yours at home. Whoever wants to seriously go out in Berlin also does so in Mitte in relaxed and
loungy clubs like “Delicious Donuts” or “Mr Wonka’s”.

Text 1:

Cycling in the countryside

By Chris Jones, aged 14

Have you ever been cycling? This spring my older brother and I left the busy city and spent a long
weekend cycling in the countryside. Our average speed was only around 14 kph, but that didn’t
matter. We hadn’t come to break any speed records, or to get fit and healthy. All we wanted was
some fresh air and a break from schoolwork. My bike only once went more than 30 kph, and that
was when I raced my brother down the only hill on our route.

We really enjoyed cycling along flat, traffic-free country paths. There was plenty of spring
sunshine, but it was quite cold, especially in the mornings. We didn’t mind, though - and we soon
warmed up as we rode along. Our only problem was when my brakes started making a terrible
noise. But I didn’t mind as it gave us an excuse to visit a café while a helpful bike mechanic had a
look at it.

That was one of the best things about our route: every few kilometres there was a village where
we could find everything we needed. All the local people were really friendly, too. However, most
places we stopped at served chips with all the meals, which soon got fairly boring.

One night we were woken at 4 a.m. by a group of rugby fans singing loudly in the hotel corridor.
We were tired and bad-tempered when we set off the next morning and very nearly got lost, but
soon felt more cheerful when the sun came out. That’s what I like about cycling - it’s simple and
it’s fun. If you’re looking for a short break that’s active and cheap, then cycling is a great choice!

21. What is Chris Jones doing in this text?

A. describing the different places he saw while cycling

B. comparing cycling to other forms of exercise

C. suggesting places to stay on a cycling holiday

D. recommending cycling as a good type of holiday

22. What do we find out about Chris’s bike?

A. It wasn’t as good as his brother’s.

B. It was too old to go fast.

C. It needed attention at one point.

D. It had trouble going up hills.

23. Chris was pleased because

A. he and his brother had chosen a good route.

B. he felt much healthier than before he began his trip.

C. he met other people who were keen on cycling.

D. he went away at the best time of year for cycling.

24. What did Chris dislike about his trip?

A. breaking down

B. the food

C. the weather

D. getting lost

25. What might Chris say in a postcard to a friend?
