Top Gun: Maverick was awesome! It takes you on an


emotional nostalgia filled with thrill rides that will have you
on the edge of your seat. I was genuinely sweating just

win many cinematography awards. There are plenty of

pure fan service but the structure of the movie is good
enough for complete newcomers to still enjoy.

Questions 27 to 32 are based on a story on how the writer faced a terrible challenge on his
hiking journey. Six sentences have been removed from the story. Choose from the sentences A
to H the one which fits each gap (27 to 32). There are two extra sentences which you do not
need to use. Mark your answer on the answer sheet.

I’m lying in my tent at Everest Base Camp. It’s –2°C. My breath rises from my mouth
like trails of smoke as I try to catch a midday nap. Suddenly and without warning, the ground
I’m lying on moves half a metre to the left. Did that really happen? Did the entire earth just
shift beneath me? Again, I feel the earth move. 27 C . What is happening? I am
lying on a glacier of 100 tons of ice—nothing could move that!
I roll myself up out of my sleeping bag; rip the tent zip open. The snow in front of me,
calm and serene, blissfully unaware of the plans the mountain has in store for it. I half crawl
out and stand upright. I see Donat and Iwan, staring up at the mountain as if hypnotised.
28 . Coming right at us.
The entire sky is filled with a giant, cascading wall of white. A beautiful and deadly
collision of rocks, ice and white dust—and all of it heading straight for me. 29 C
From ground to sky there is nothing else; just this wall of whiteness thundering towards us,
unaware of all in its path, full of heartless violence.
This is it—I’m dead! There’s nothing I can do but accept that I’m about to be swept
away by an avalanche. After all the near misses of my life, after all the lucky escapes from
hospital, I must exit here, thousands of miles from my loved ones. 30 C . Time
seems to be slowing infinitely to allow me to think about them all, one last time.
It feels as if 15 minutes have passed since I emerged from my tent, but it’s actually only
a few seconds. Could I run? I glance over my shoulder. Running is out of the question. The
avalanche is hurtling towards me at 150 kilometres an hour, and the ground is an obstacle
course of rocks, guide ropes and ice. 31 C . Now. I dive headfirst into my tent, and
hit the floor, burrowing my head into the ground. The avalanche is on me, all around and on
top of me. 32 C .

A My daughters, my girlfriend, my family in England drift into my mind.

B The ground lifts me up half a metre, as if something is pushing into my back, before
suddenly shifting to the right.

C I’m not even wearing boots; just socks on my half-frozen feet.

D I am being buried alive in snow.

E Usually, Everest looks so majestically overhead, but right now, racing down the
mountain is the biggest avalanche I have ever seen.

F It rolls, turns, tumbles every which way, as it rushes invincibly on down the

Part 5
Questions 33 to 40 are based on the following texts.
Read the texts carefully and answer the questions that follow.

BEST HIPSTER CAFES

A - 90 DEGREES CAFE
90 Degrees Cafe is a highly Instagrammable setting, perfect for those who love a trendy cafe.
This artsy place resides in a renovated classic grocery store made entirely of wood and has
two floors: cafe and dining downstairs and community event space upstairs, where they host
a monthly art exhibition. Their menu line up is to-die-for, especially the luxurious Truffle
Scramble and their homemade natural ice-cream!

B - NORFA BOOK CAFE


Norfa Book Cafe is a one-of-a-kind book cafe in Kuantan. It was originally a regular
bookstore selling books on Islam and faith, and it was upgraded to include a cafe so that
people can sit and read while having a cup of coffee. You’re also welcome to enjoy their
lunch menu, which ranges from fish and chips to curry noodles!

C - RASA SAYANG CAFE


A unique coffee shop with nostalgic interior decoration. I honestly love the great interior all
over the place. They do not have a variety selection of food and drinks, however the dishes
sold are very delicious. Trust me! You will never be disappointed for sure! This is such a
memorable place to relax and take photos due to its Instagram worthy aesthetic view.

D - THE 92'S
Need some authentic wood-fired pizza while you get your caffeine fix? The 92s Cafe is the
place to go! Just opened a year ago, they’re the first-ever place to serve wood-fired artisan
pizzas in Kuantan. Don’t miss the whimsical charcoal-based of The 92s Signature, which
combines five different seasonal kinds of cheese, and their very own Satay Turkey Ham.
Sound heavenly, don’t they?

E - PULL A SHOT
If you’re looking for a place to relax and read some novels or whatever, this coffee shop
would be the best. They have the best coffee available and even some fresh baked goods as
well. The ambiance of this shop is so relaxing, and the staffs are super friendly. I could not
ask for more because everything that I needed was provided.

F - JAVA FLAVA
Looking for a place with a vintage, cozy and warm ambience for a catch up session with
friends? Get your appetite ready at Java Flava Cafe. Serving delectable Western diner-style
food—mostly made from scratch, Java Flava also specializes in hand-crafted coffee. Don’t
leave without indulging in a delicious cup of cappuccino, or perhaps their popular Rose
Marie Latte, which is a perfect companion to their incredible French pastries.
