Q1) The middle-aged woman startled all her friends. Who gasped in disbelief as she quit her job, broke off her engagement and moved halfway across the country to start a knew life. She had seamed happy with the quite life she lead. Job at the local factory; an established small buisnessman as fiance; an apartment in an unremarkeable neighbourhood. Her fiances reaction is anger John believes she is having a mid life crisis. Certainly Mary appears to be rethinking her life after her recent mothers death. No longer satisfied with security, safety, sameness. She takes risks. Surprisingly perhaps it seems that shes happy.
Q2) Ravi and his friends after graduation decided to take an extended celebration roadtrip. They decided to drive to Montreal and Quebec city. To visit night clubs and partying. It's there last time alltogether before starting at jobs, and settling down. Sharing expenses and driving. They rented a van, and set off on a bright summer day. Things began to go immediately wrong. The van broke down, their hotel reservation was lost, one of the friends got food poisoning. Each one encountered an obstacle they had to overcome. However, sharing these difficulties paradoxically strengthened they're freindship. Everyone returned home a little the worse for wear but they had great memories.

Sample Questions
Q1) Due to the fact that the National Ballet of Canada is preparing to stage its last season at the Hummingbird Centre in Toronto, its founding and history have become the focus of much national attention. The driving force at all times in the early years behind the world-famous company was Celia Franca. Celia Franca's energy and drive was also behind the gaining of a national mandate for the National Ballet. Celia Franca and other ballet enthusiasts began the company by drawing dancers from across the country, touring across the country, and, therefore, furthering the creation of a 'national base' for the company of dancers. Celia Franca and her directors, in point of fact, also insisted on staging the 'classics', and in preforming the 'classics'; they also insisted on the dancers living up to the most demanding, internationally-accepted standards. By virtue of the fact that they had little financial support, they could not tour their stage performances as often as they thought would have been appropriate. Founding of the National Ballet School in 1959, for the purpose of training dancers in order to meet these internationally-accepted standards, and the adoption of the O'Keefe Centre (now known as the Hummingbird Centre) in Toronto, in the final analysis, gave the foundation needed for the company to establish itself fully.
