XI. Read the passage and statements below carefully, and then say whether the statements are true (T),

HOW ARE BALLET DANCERS TRAINED?
Girls who study ballet generally begin by age eight to ten. Boys often start later. Ballet training is
hard work. Ballet students must develop strength, balance, and flexibility as well as grace. They must learn
a set of movements and gestures. Girls also learn to dance on their toes. They usually begin pointe (tip-of-
the-toes) work after three years of training.
All ballet students practice five basic positions of the feet. These five positions form the basis of
almost all ballet steps. All of these positions are performed with the legs turned outward at the hip. The feet
should be able to form a straight line on the floor.
The turned-out position gives a dancer a more pleasing “line.” Line has to do with the placement of
the dancer’s body, in motion and at rest. All parts of the dancer’s body must be placed in the correct position
to achieve good line. Training can improve a dancer’s line. Good line gives a dancer the greatest stability
and ease of movement. It also makes the dancer’s body seem light in weight.
All dancers take daily classes to keep their bodies flexible and strong. Most classes begin with
warm-up exercises at the barre, a railing that dancers hold onto for support. The second part of the class
consists of slow exercises that develop balance and fluid (flowing, not jerky) motion. After this, dancers
practice quick movements, such as small jumps and leg extensions, and then large steps, turns, and leaps.
1/ ………… Girls who study ballet generally begin later than boys.
2/ ………… Ballet students don’t have to build up might, steadiness, flexibility and elegance.
3/ ………… Boys also learn to dance on their toes.
4/ ………… Only ballet girls practice five basic positions of the feet.
5/ ………… Ballet students perform all of these positions with the legs turned external at the hip.
6/ ………… The turned-out pose gives a performer a more satisfying “line.”
7/ ………… Dancers must place all parts of their body in the correct position to attain good line.
8/ ………… Without training dancers can improve their line.
9/ ………… So as to keep their bodies flexible and strong all dancers take daily classes.
10/ ……… Most classes begin with slow exercises that increase balance and fluid (flowing, not jerky)
motion.
