Rob Stone and the school play

Last week, Rob Stone, the famous British actor and star of many Hollywood
films, had a party for his 53rd birthday. Rob invited a lot of other actors to his
beautiful home for his party. After dinner, he stood up and spoke to everyone there.
He told them about something that happened when he was at school 40 years ago. As
a schoolboy, Rob loved the theatre and he was very happy when he had his first part
in a play. It was a very sad play by Shakespeare, the sixteenth-century English writer.
Rob played the part of an old man who had to die on stage. He practised and practised
to become good at the part. He had to lie on a bed, say a few sad words of goodbye to
his sons and then shout in pain and die.
Like all the other parents, Mr and Mrs Stone came to watch their son in the
play. Rob told his guests, “I shall never forget that evening. It was terrible. As I died, I
could hear my father laughing! I still remember now how bad I felt and I have not
asked my father to one of my plays since.”

Section 5 Questions 36-40

Read the text and questions below. Circle the letter next to the best answer to each
question (A, B, C or D).
Being an older student

At 32, I have just finished my first year at university. As well as attending

lectures regularly, I have had to learn to read books quickly and write long essays.
I decided to go to university after fourteen years away from the classroom. As a
secretary, although I was earning a reasonable amount of money, I was bored doing
something where I hardly had to think. I became more and more depressed by the idea
that I was stuck in the job. I was jealous of the students at the local university, who
looked happy, carefree and full of hope, and part of something that I wanted to
explore further.
However, now that I’ve actually become a student I find it hard to mix with
younger colleagues. They are always mistaking me for a lecturer and asking me
questions I can’t answer. I also feel separated from the lecturers because, although we
are the same age, I know so much less than them. But I am glad of this opportunity to
study because I know you need a qualification to get a rewarding job, which is really
important to me. Unlike most eighteen-year-olds, I much prefer a weekend with my
books to one out partying. Then there are the normal student benefits of long holidays
and theatre and cinema discounts. I often have doubts about what I’ll do after
university, but I hope that continuing my education at this late date has been a wise
choice.
