Read the passages carefully and choose the best answer to each question from the four choices marked A, B, C, and D. Then mark the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet with a single line through the center. Passage One Despite all the glamour and glitz of the Oscars there is a good reason for people to be there, not for the films, but for the dresses. And short of wearing a dazzling dress you can actually win an award, and sometimes people will remember you. If you want to be noticed, and more importantly if you want to be on the front page of the next day's newspapers, you need to give a stunning speech. But the trick is this, you don't really have to sound special, in fact you can be anything you want to be, as long as it's entertaining. Be Political There are many ways in which you can grab attention at the Oscars. But there are some who specifically use the ceremony and all the attention it receives, to make themselves heard. Year 2002 was filled with tension over the Iraq war. The only person that night to get away with discussing the war was Adrien Brody, making his speech for winning Best Actor for The Pianist. Be Emotional Let's face it, the Oscar moments we remember best are the ones when our strong and noble actresses fall foul of their emotions. In 1998, Gwyneth Paltrow picked up a well-deserved Best Actress for Shakespeare in Love. She was universally derided for crying throughout her speech, but considering that her grandfather was on his death bed, the woman should really have been excused for becoming so emotional. Be Over the Top Despite the Academy's attempt at being the most important thing on stage it is always individual performances that steal the show. In 1991, Jack Palance got up on stage to pick up his Oscar for Best Supporting Actor (for City Slicker) and in an effort to show off his physique at the age of 71, he began a set of one armed pushups, much to the delight of the audience. 1. What can make the people attending the Oscar ceremony appear on the front page of the next day's newspaper? A. Sounding special. B. The films they starred C. Their smiles. D. A stunning speech 2. Who made a speech about war when he/she got the award? A. Oscars B. Gwyneth Paltrow C. Adrien Brody D. Jack Palance 3. What did Gwyneth Paltrow do when it was time for her to deliver a speech? A. She refused to go to the stage to accept the award. B. She broke into tears and cried throughout her speech. C. She behaved gracefully without saying a word after she got the award. D. She told the audience with tearful eyes that her grandfather had just died. 4. How did Jack Palance impress the audience at the ceremony? A. He did a set of one armed pushups. B. He danced as a professional ballet dancer. C. He got up on the stage to grab the award. D. He told a joke he invented himself. 5. What is the passage mainly about? A. How to make you heard at the Oscar ceremony. B. How to make a speech at the Oscar ceremony. C. How to be fashionable at the Oscar ceremony. D. How to be noticed at the Oscar ceremony.
