Read the passage below and choose one correct answer for each question:       Recreation is the use of time in a non-profitable way, in many ways also a therapeutic refreshment of one's body or mind. While leisure is more likely a form of entertainment or rest, recreation is active for the participant but in a refreshing and diverting manner. As people in the world's wealthier regions lead increasingly sedentary lifestyles, the need for recreation has grown. The rise of so-called active vacations exemplifies this trend.       Recreation, play, and fun are not the preserve of humans; nearly all creatures indulge in this to some extent. Play is essential for the development of skills, the most basic of which are motor skills in young creatures.      The choice of hours for recreation is, for employees, restricted by the requirements of, and agreements with, the employer (working time), and for students by school hours. For people with their own business it is also restricted by the requirements of the work, such as the opening hours of the business based on wishes of customers, laws, and customs.      The weekend is usually a time for recreation. Holidays are also a common time for recreation, though recreation may take place at virtually any time. Recreation commonly occurs during an individual's discretionary time.      Traditionally Olympics, music and dance serve as recreation in many cultures, as do sports, hobbies, games (playing) and tourism. Watching TV and listening to music are common forms of recreation, or rather leisure.   1. What is the difference between leisure and recreation? A.

Read the passage below and choose one correct answer for each question:                          SOME OF THE WORLD'S SMALLEST COUNTRIES         One of the smallest countries in the world is San Marino, a republic, high in the mountains of Italy. It is also the oldest because it was founded some 1,500 years ago. San Marino covers 61 square kilometres and has over 17 thousand people. San Marino coins and stamps are eagerly bought by collectors.         One of the small countries in the stamp album is Andorra, the mountain state of 11 thousand people which is high, in the Pyrenees, between France and Spain. Anyone who collects the stamps of Andorra soon notices a strange thing about them. Some stamps are printed in Spain and have their values and inscriptions in Spanish. Other stamps are like French stamps. They have values in francs or centimes and their inscription is in French.        The reason for this lies in Andorra’s history. For nearly 700 years the little state has been under the joint protection of France and Spain, and these two countries have separate postal services in Andorra. In the chief village of Andorra, the Spanish and the French post offices stand near each other but sell different stamps.   1. Where is San Marino situated? A. Between France and Spain. B.

Because Andorra has been under the joint protection of France and Spain for nearly 700 years. B. Because Andorra is situated between France and Spain. C.
