READING COMPREHENSION
Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, or D to indicate the correct answer to each 
of the questions. 
A month ago, I had no idea that on a Saturday afternoon in November I’d be hanging 30 metres above the 
ground and enjoying it. Now I looked down at the river far below me, and realised why people love rock-
climbing.
My friend Matt and I had arrived at the Activity Centre on Friday evening. The accommodation wasn’t 
wonderful, but we had everything we needed (beds, blankets, food), and we were pleased to be out of the 
city and in the fresh air.
On Saturday morning we met the other ten members of our group. Cameron had come along with two 
friends, Kevin, and Simon, while sisters Carole and Lynn had come with Amanda. We had come from 
various places and none of us knew the area.
We knew we were going to spend the weekend outdoors, but none of us was sure exactly how. Half of us 
spent the morning caving while the others went rock- climbing and then we changed at lunchtime. Matt and 
I went to the caves first. Climbing out was harder than going in, but after a good deal of pushing, we were 
out at last – covered in mud but pleased and excited by what we’d done.
