[00:04.00]For Questions 6-10,you'll hear a monologue 1 about Personal Life.
[00:10.66]While you listen,
[00:13.61]complete the sentences or answer the questions.
[00:18.29]Use not more than 3 words for each answer.
[00:23.04]You now have 25 seconds to read the sentences
[00:28.40]and the questions below.
[00:32.05]W:I was only eight years old when the Second World War ended
[00:38.82]but I can still remember something about the victory 2 celebrations 3
[00:44.70]in the small town where I lived.
[00:48.77]We had not suffered much from the war there,though like most children of my age
[00:55.61]I was used to seeing bombed
[00:59.14]houses in the streets and the enormous 4 army lorries 5 passing through.
[01:05.52]But both at home and at school I had become accustomed 6 to the phrases 7 "before the war"
[01:12.39]and"when the war's over".
[01:15.91]"Before the war", apparently,things had been better,
[01:20.77]though I was too young to understand why,except
[01:25.52]there had been no bombs then,and people had eaten things like ice-cream and bananas,
[01:32.58]which I had only heard of.
[01:36.03]When the war was over,we would go back to London,
[01:40.88]but this meant very little to me.
[01:44.86]I did not remember what London was like.
[01:49.30]What I remember only about Victory Europe Day
[01:54.16]was the afternoon and the evening.
[01:57.81]It was a fine May day.
[02:02.07]I remember coming home about five o'clock.
[02:06.51]My father and mother came in about an hour later.
[02:11.58]After dinner I said I wanted to see bonfire
[02:16.44]so when it got dark my father took me to the end of the street.
[02:22.68]The bonfire was very high,and
[02:26.94]some people had collected some old clothes to dress
[02:31.67]the unmistakable figure with the mustache they had put on top of it.
[02:37.52]Just as we arrived, they set light to it,
[02:41.99]the flames rose and soon covered the "guy"
[02:46.84]Everyone was cheering and shouting,and an old woman came out of her house
[02:52.90]with two chairs and threw them on the fire to keep the fire going.
[02:59.07]I stood beside my father until the fire started to go down,
[03:04.66]not knowing what to say.
[03:08.32]He said nothing either.
[03:11.56]He had fought in the First World War
[03:15.92]may have been remembering the end of that.
[03:20.36]At last he said,"Well, that's it,son.
[03:25.53]Let's hope that this time it really will be the last one."
