Instruction: Answer questions 31 to 40 based on the following text.
New year, new you, you tell yourself. Again.
- January always feels like the perfect time of year to start something new and learn new
- skills, as_____ people seem to be in the mood to turn their life around. However, it can be
- _____ daunting, especially if college or work gets in the way - where will you find the time?
- To help you along, here are some things you could learn in 2019, no matter how _____
- time you have to spare.
- 1 hour - fold a T-shirt
- If one of your resolutions are to be more tidy, and you’re actually planning on sticking to it
- this year, this might be the skill for you. It’s extremely simple and, once mastered, looks very
- impressive. Show off to your parents, tell your friends!
- 1. Lay your t-shirt out on a table.
- 2. Imagine two lines, one going down the shirt from the left of the collar, and one going
- horizontally through the middle. They meet at point A, the top is point B and bottom is
- point C.
- 3. Pinch point A and B, then cross your arms by bringing point B down to point C.
- 4. Pick the t-shirt up and uncross your arms.
- 5. Use the table to fold the t-shirt away from you once and voila! A perfectly folded t-shirt.
- It may take a couple of tries to nail it, but once you do, you’ll have the most beautifully
- organised drawers in all the land. You’re welcome.
- 1 month - play an instrument (at a very basic level)
- You're unlikely to become an expert at a musical instrument in under 30 days. However,
- with dedication and practice, you can definitely learn the fundamentals, and get a few good
- tunes under your belt.
- To ……… life simple, pick an instrument that’s slightly easier to play, such as the ukulele. It
- has four strings rather than six as on a guitar, and the neck is much smaller, which means there
- are fewer combinations of chords to learn.
- 1 year - learn a language
- Whether it's for an upcoming holiday, to increase your employability or just for fun,
- learning a language is a really good way of enhancing your skills and opening up opportunities.
- Some research suggests that, for English speakers, learning an easier language such as
- French, German or Swahili takes around 480 hours. In context, if you practice one and a half
- hours a day, or roughly ten hours spread across a week, then you could potentially be fluent in
- the language by 2020.
- So… what are you waiting for? Get practising!
