Passage 33

Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, or D on your answer sheet to indicate the correct
answer to each of the questions.
Norwich is the capital of East Anglia, an area on the east coast of England which is famous for its natural
beauty and impressive architecture. Norwich is a wonderful city to explore and is popular with tourists all year
round.
Norwich is not a city of luxurious hotels, but it has a good selection of reasonably priced places to stay in,
both in the city centre and further out. The Beeches Hotel, for example, next to the cathedral, has a beautiful
Victorian garden. Comfortable accomodations costs £65 for two nights’ bed and breakfast per person. Norwich is
famous for its magnificent cathedral. The cathedral has a summer programme of music and events which is open
to the general public. One event, “Fire from heaven” , is a drama and musical performance with fireworks, a
laser light show and a carnival with local people dressed in colourful costumes.
Norwich is also home to the Sainsbury Centre for Visual Arts, a world-class collection of international art
in a building at the University of East Anglia. This is well worth a visit and there is a lovely canteen with an
excellent selection of hot and cold snacks. It also specializes in vegetarian food. In addition, the city has a new
professional theatre, the Playhouse, on the River Wensum. The city’ annual international arts festival is from 10
to 20 October.
Finally, if you fancy a complete break from the stresses of everyday life,you could hire a boat and spend a
few days cruising along the river of the famous Norfolk Broads National Park. In our environmentally friendly
age, the emphasis has moved forwards the quiet enjoyment of nature and wildlife. You can buy hire a boat, big or
small, for an hour or two or even up to a week or two. This makes a perfect day out or holiday for people of all
ages.
