Make a list of all the sports you can think of in one minute.  \n\n|  |  |\n| --- | --- |\n|  |  |\n|  |  |\n|  |  |\n|  |  |\n|  |  |\n\n2  Work with a partner. Compare your list of sports. Find the‘winners’ in the following categories:  \n● Who has the longest list of sports?  \n● Who has played most of those sports?  \n● Who has the highest number of less traditional sports?  \n10  \n B  READING AND ANALYZING THE TEXT  \nThe first reading task in the ECCE test consists of a short prose text followed by six multiple choice questions. Read the passage and do the activities  \nthat follow.  \nThis passage is about sports.  \n1 What do snowboarding, base jumping,  \n2 skydiving, downhill mountain biking, and hang  \n3 gliding have in common? They are all considered  \n4 “extreme” sports because they involve some  \n5 degree of danger, and lots of excitement.  \n6 Many people choose these alternative sports  \n7 over traditional options like soccer or tennis.  \n8 Patrick, 25, started snowboarding when he was  \n9 eight. He still feels he needs to be constantly  \n10 on the edge. Catherine, 47, started bungee  \n11 jumping a few years ago simply to add some  \n12 variety to her life. Indeed, extreme sports, or  \n13 alternative sports as others prefer to call them, 14 attract people of all ages, including parents with  \n15 their children. Paul, 35, enjoys skateboarding and  \n16 mountain biking with his 10-year-old daughter.  \n17 He says that skateboarding requires as much, if  \n18 not more, training and skill as soccer, basketball, 19 or boxing. Many parents like him feel that some  \n20 of these sports create the perfect opportunity  \n21 to teach children about safety, self-confidence  \n22 and endurance, while engaging in new physical  \n23 activities.  \n24 Undoubtedly, fear is a special component of  \n25 these cool sports that attract young and mature  \n26 audiences alike. However, according to experts, 27 with the development of appropriate equipment  \n28 that enables us to do sports safely, risk of injury  \n29 can be reduced. Unfortunately, in most cases, 30 safety equipment is expensive, raising the cost of  \n31 participating. For example, a 30-second bungee  \n32 jump may cost from $50 to over $300 in different  \n33 parts of the world.  \nB  \n\n|  Reading skills and strategies  Understanding main ideas\u003Cbr>\u003Cbr>|  |\n| --- | --- |\n| All the information in a text relates directly to a main idea, whether it be the main idea of the text as a whole or the main idea in one paragraph. Identifying the main idea is key to good reading comprehension. There are questions that test your ability to recognize the main idea in a passage orin part of a passage.\u003Cbr>For example, look at paragraph 1 – it gives examples of some sports and says that they are considered extreme sports as they may be dangerous and exciting. Therefore, the main idea of paragraph 1 is that extreme sports are dangerous and exciting. |  |\n\n1 Quickly skim the text to have an overall idea of the passage. Can you easily identify the main idea of the rest ofthe paragraphs?  \nParagraph 2:   \nParagraph 3:    \n| \u003Cbr>Identifying keywords\u003Cbr>Identifying key words in the questions will help you find the correct information in the text. Question words like who, when, how long, how old, how many, and how much often ask about information that clearly stands out in the passage. |  |  |  |\n| --- | --- | --- | --- |\n|  | Ifa question\u003Cbr>asks about... | In the passage look for... |  |\n|  | a name | capitalized words until you find the name you need |  |\n|  | a date or a year | numbers, days and months (also capitalized), or years |  |\n|  | time | time-related words like second, minute, hour, month, ago, yesterday, etc. |  |\n|  | price | currency sign (e.g., $, £, €, etc.) |  |\n|  |  |  |  |\n\nReading skills and strategies  \n1  \n2 Quickly go over the passage and look for the information you need to answer the questions below.
