Section A: Literacy - Spelling Read the passage below, then write the 12 spelling (wrong) errors.Identify the incorrectly spelt words in the paragraph and enter them into the boxes in the same order they appear. Type the words exactly as they appear in the paragraph, keeping the same spelling and capitalisation. A garuge has 18 cars in for servises. Six of the cars also need body work due to minor collitions that had happened during the recent wet weather. The apprentice had to go to the storerom to retreve the spark plugs that were needed to repair some of the other cars. Meanwhile, the other two mechanics began work on the Ford Focus. The windscreen needed to be replased as it had a major crack through it from the lower right side up through the left side. The vehicle driver had been following a lorry when it kicked up a stone and hit directly on the windscreen. The driver swurved as the stone hit the car and ended up hitting a telegraf pole, then ended up in a ditch. This caused damage along the driver’s side front wheel and panel. Major panel beating and respraying had to be undertaken to bring the car back to its original condision. In addition, the steering needed checking, the radiater needed a complete re-build and the alternater was damaged beyond repair and needed replacing. The head mekanic wanted the work completed by the end of the day so that there was no work to be done over the weekend. 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. 8. 9. 10. 11. 12. MCQ Multiple choice 2.

Comprehension - Short-answer questions Read the following passage and then answer the questions below. It was 5 o’clock in the morning when Clinton left home to go fishing. He had a Renault Megane Scenic that fitted all of their fishing gear, so they took his car. Clinton picked up Daniel and Matthew before heading for the petrol station. As they pulled into the service station, Clinton realized that he needed to check the oil, fill up with petrol and top up the automatic transmission fluid. All hadn’t been checked for a while and it was an hour and a half down the road to their favourite fishing lake. Daniel started filling the petrol tank. It was on empty. The price of unleaded petrol was $1.58 per litre and he filled up with 51 litres. The car also had LPG, so they decided to fill that tank too. It took 33 litres at 68 cent per litre. Meanwhile, Clinton and Matthew checked the engine oil and found that it was down to 3/8 full and so Matthew topped it up. The automatic transmission oil was 3/4 full so Clinton didn’t worry about adding any more. After they had purchased some breakfast, they decided to check the tyre pressures. The two front tyres had 1.2 and 1.6 Bar in them. Both needed inflating to 2.2 Bar. The back two tyre pressures were not too bad and they didn’t require more inflation. It was 6.15 a.m. when they finally left the service station for the fishing lake. The fishing was worth it. At around 2.45 p.m, they packed up as it started to rain and this made it very wet and cold. They arrived home tired and happy at 4.30 p.m. 13. Why did they decide to take Clinton’s car?
