Question VII: Read the passage and choose the best answer (10p):

I was born in Newcastle, a city in the North East of England . Newcastle is on the

bank of the River Tyne . It is quite big, with a population of about 200,000 people. There

is a cathedral and a university. There are five bridges over River Tyne, which link

Newcastle to the next town, Gateshead, where there is one of the biggest shopping centres

in the world. A few years ago, the main industries were shipbuilding and coalmining, But

now the chemical and soap industries are important . I moved to London ten years ago but

I often return to Newcastle. I miss the people, who are very friendly, and I miss the

beautiful countryside near the city, where there are so many hills and streams.
