1. Listening
* Activity 1 : True / False or Not Given statements
I went to a village school. In fact, there was only one classroom for 15 students of different ages, both boys and girls, and one teacher who taught everything. The school didn`t have a name, so we just called t ‘our school’. We used to walk to school. Some children went bare-footed.

At school, we learnt to read and to write. We also learnt a little maths and history. There were no science lessons, and we didn`t have exams, either.

Although our school was small, it had strict rules. We had to behave ourselves. We stood up and bowed to greet our teacher at the start of every lesson. We could talk only when we were allowed to. However, I had no homework and no extra classes. I had a lot of time to play outside and to help my parents in the house. I loved my school and those school days.

Sample writing:
It is most likely that students twenty years ago were not able to enjoy the Internet in their studies. That’s why it took them a lot of time, energy, and even money, to do a project that we can now easily complete in one or two days.
For example, when being asked to write an assignment about past habits, the students had to go to the library, look for books on the topic, read the books, and hand-write any information that they thought was useful for their assignment. They would also have to meet with some old people and talk to them about the past. At home, they had to hand-write their assignment, possibly with a lot of erasing and rewriting of the first draft. After finishing the draft, they had to write a clean copy on another piece of paper for submission.
Choose one facility which was not available twenty years ago and write a short description of how students in the past studied without that facility.
