English Mock revision exam

Read source 1, lifesaving with class, by Rory Stamp, from the RNLI magazine, the lifeboat.
Question 1:- What do you learn about the beach article about the beach to city programme run by the RNLI?

From the article we learn that that the beach to city programme is run by the RNLI (Royal National Lifeboat Institute) and also that they do good work as a charity which very little I known about them in some places. Their aim is to ‘educate children about the dangers of the seaside and how to stay away from trouble.’ They teach these skills to primary school children because it is said that they are highlighted as a ‘higher risk group’ who are most likely to be unaware of what the RNLI are about. The RNLI teach kids about keeping safe in the sun. They advise to ‘slap on a sun hat, slop on sun cream’ and ‘slip on a T-shirt’ to protect themselves from the sun. Furthermore the RNLI aim to make all their lessons memorable as well as enjoyable, they do these things by getting the kids to take part in play-acting and getting grips with equipment. Their sessions also focus on the use of public equipment (PRE), they do this by respecting and using life rings, throwing lines and emergency communication are very important to them in particular. The advice the PRE give is also aimed towards school children in London. They managed to visit 30 schools there. In the Future the RNLI education team aim to add a fourth city to the beach tour and plan to continue their work as well as adding more for the coming years.

Now read source 2, the article and the picture which goes with it is called, Trapped Chilean miners: rescue drill reaches their refuge at last by David Batty.
Question 2:- Explain how the headline and picture are effective and how they link to the text.

    The second strategy is to install a network of paths and barriers to prevent people from shifting the sand dunes. Surfers often check the conditions of the beach by looking over them at the dunes. They run up to the top of them so they can get a view of where there are good waves or not. In summer, an astonishing number of surfers will flock to the beach. The result of those people all running up the dune would cause displacement of the sand and weakening of the dunes. To solve the need for people to travel around the beach, the council has installed walkways to provide a path around the area which doesn’t involve people walking or treading on the sand dunes. The dunes have been fenced off in case any people wonder off and don’t walk on the pathways. On top of that, board and chain stairs have been put put in to protect the sloped areas of the beach which may be vulnerable to deformation. Finally, polymesh has been laid over areas of bare sand to stop sand blowing…

    As the day slowly dawns, young children stumble onto the moist sand, with small buckets and spades in their hands. Damp sand is forced between their toes. Parents haul on the swimming costumes and smother their innocent, pale face with thick white sunscreen. As they run towards the shoreline; their parents struggle onto the sand, loaded like camels with everything they will need for their day. Sandwiches, cold drinks, windbreakers, towels all bagged up and slung over both shoulders. A hot sea breeze rushes through the visitor's hair, as you stand there you can taste the salt in the air; it is forced through your lungs as you inhale. The sound of the waves crashing against the shore, seagulls swooping overhead and the strong scent of sunscreen surrounds the beach.…
