Every autumn, when the vegetables are ready to eat, children pick large
orange pumpkins. Then they cut faces in the pumpkins and put lights inside. It looks like there is a person looking out of the pumpkin!
The children also put on strange masks and frightening clothes every Halloween. Some children paint their faces to look like monsters.

Read the passages carefully, then answer the questions in the fewest possible words (not exceeding 10 words). Remember to write the answers on the Answer Sheet. Questions 61 to 64 are based on the following passage.
London's public transport system is no longer the “sick man” but the “jewel in the crown” of the capital's 2012 Olympic dream, bid chiefs said last night. Transport experts told the International Olympic Committee scrutinizing Britain's chances that London's railways and roads would soon be the envy of the world. Once improvements were in place, athletes would spend time “competing not commuting”, bid leader Lord Coe told the IOC panel on the first day of their visit. The need for an overhaul came after the IOC criticised London's “obsolete” public transport systems in a report last May.
Yesterday the London 2012 bid made a series of promises including:
￡10 billion of investments including a ￡1 billion East London line extension, longer Jubilee line trains and Northern line upgrades.
A train serving the main Olympic Park at Stratford, East London, every 15 seconds, on ten different rail lines.
