Part 3. You are going to read a newspaper article about extreme running. Six paragraphs have been removed
from the article. Choose from the paragraphs A-G the one which fits each gap. There is one extra paragraph
which you do not need to use.
Ultrarunning
Nine hours into the 100km South Coast ultramarathon, I was almost ready to quit. Absolutely every part of me
was in agony and, more than anything, I was desperate to submit to the pain and lie down by the side of the track
for a sleep.
1. ________
G
Eventually, though, I hit ‘the wall’, the famous pain barrier every long-distance runner encounters, and
miraculously I came out the other side feeling refreshed and suddenly full of incredible energy. This marvellous
feeling is still with me days later. Other runners I know have described it as like peeling off the layers of an onion
until you reach the clean, fresh centre.
2. ________
C
There are times, though, when this isn’t enough. At those moments when all I want is an end to the pain or when
I need to find a burst of speed from somewhere, I will resort to conjuring up something dark from my past, some
injustice I still feel, or some frustration that remains unresolved and use that anger to re-fuel me.
3. ________
F
It obviously worked as I passed a number of other runners in the last stages of exhaustion and was astounded to
find myself in third place in a fraction under 10 hours. As someone who regularly puts in 75km plus every week,
I’m pretty familiar with the ups and downs of running, so what is it that makes ultrarunning so much more intense?
4. ________
A
Some researchers have now settled on another substance, endocannabinoids, which is also generated during
physical exercise as the main candidate, but still others cite serotonin and dopamine.
5. ________
E
Personally, I too think most ultramarathon runners compete not for any physical sensation, but because they are
seeking a certain place in their heads, somewhere where all your problems disappear into the far distance and
where everything seems clear and nothing is impossible. The world suddenly seems a much more beautiful place
to be.
6. ________
D
I can see his point. Ultras put you outdoors in all weathers, doing something your body will rebel against and do
all it can to make you stop. If you somehow find the willpower to overcome these voices then you feel nothing
can stop you. There may be some degree of addiction involved, but it is an emotional addiction. It might not
sound like it, but the race was exciting. I don’t know why I felt so high after it, but I plan to recapture the feeling
as soon as I can.

Missing paragraphs:
A. It used to be credited to something called endorphins, a natural chemical produced by the body during exertion,
but new research appears to have ruled this out. Endorphins are apparently too large to pass through the brain.
B. The advice from those who know best is not to overdo it: start slowly and let yourself grow to love the
experience. As you build up your distances slowly, you’ll also learn to appreciate the outdoors more and more.
Soon, nothing can stop you.
C. The motivations for ultrarunning are very different for everyone who does it. I learned very early on that the
way for me to drive myself on was to keep some positive picture in my mind’s eye, something to encourage me
during the blackest moments, of which there are many.
D. Jan Corby, the man behind the South Coast Ultramarathon, seems to agree, saying that taking part in one is an
opportunity to learn something about yourself and your mental capabilities. “The moment you discover this is the
moment you feel free,” he says.
E. Barry Exington, a professor of sports science, claims science has no real idea what is responsible. He also
dismisses claims that ultrarunners are suffering from some form of addiction, although he believes the “hit” is
more pronounced in an ultrarunner. He claims the pain involved is usually so bad that it acts as a barrier to
becoming really hooked.
F. On this occasion, as I willed myself up the final hill at the end of the race and aimed myself in the direction of
the finishing line, I was running alongside my eight-year-old self - enjoying my Saturday afternoon jog around
the local park.
G. As far as ultramarathons are concerned, 100km is nothing special and the flat coastal plain I was struggling
along was certainly an easy alternative to some of the other races I could have entered - some ask runners to
navigate 100km of mountain paths - but it was still by far the furthest I’d ever attempted.

Part 4. Read the following passage and answer the questions that follow.
Why does music move us?
How is it that the combination of sound waves that we know as music can have such a moving effect, asks
Roger Highóeld.
In the most basic terms, sound is merely a pressure wave that ripples through air. So how does the combination
of sound waves that we know as music become, as Tolstoy put it, “the shorthand of emotion”? Or, to put it another
way, how can mechanical vibrations have such a moving effect?
The answer, according to Philip Ball, author of The Music Instinct, lies not in the notes themselves, but in our
brains. Recently, I hosted an event with him at the Royal Institution, at which he explained to a packed audience
why listening to much current pop music was as demanding as listening to Bach or Beethoven.
Whatever your favourite genre of music, your brain has to work hard to make sense of it. Its remarkable skill at
pattern detection will take the extraordinary harmonics-crammed richness of a note played on a piano or flute,
and magically collapse it in your head, so that it is perceived as a single note rather than a forest of overtones.
My companion explained that we are pattern seekers, and that music helps us to find patterns in sound. We come
equipped with all sorts of rules of thumb to make sense of what we hear. Those rules are the brain mechanisms
that we use to organise sound and make sense of music.
Medical scanners have shown that this process is not limited to one part of the brain. Different aspects of music
activate different areas. We use our temporal lobe to process melody and pitch, our hippocampus to recover
musical memories, and what we might call “rhythm-processing circuits” to fire up motor functions. Interestingly,
the brain gives out the same signal of confusion when it encounters sentences that do not make sense as it does
when the syntax of music sounds wrong and when chords do not complement one another. If you study the way
we react to patterns of notes, you find there is something special about a pitch that is double the frequency of
another; the interval better known as an octave.
The biggest question, however, is whether this kind of mental circuitry is designed specifically to handle music,
or if songs and tunes are just “auditory cheesecake”, as Harvard University’s Steven Pinker puts it. He claims that
sounds accidentally generate pleasure via neural systems. The ability to hear them in the first place evolved to
respond to other kinds of stimuli.
The disappointing truth might be that we simply do not know. We do know, however, that the way we learn to
appreciate music is profoundly affected by how we were raised. A few years ago, Philip Ball wrote about the fact
that music seems to have a national character, probably as a result of the rhythms and cadences of the different
language spoken in each case. The English tend to vary the pitch of their speech, and the length of their vowels,
more than the French, and their composers follow suit in the rhythms and intervals they use. On the latter measure,
Elgar is considered by some to be the most “English” of all composers, perhaps explaining why his music is so
frequently the background to important national pageants.
Similarly, concepts of what is harmonious boil down to a matter of convention, not acoustics. The older generation
struggle with modern music and complain that it is dissonant - full of horrible jarring notes that are difficult to
listen to. However, dissonance has always been in music. Beethoven and Chopin are full of it. It is all a matter of
convention. What we regard as consonant now was thought dissonant in the Middle Ages. The augmented fourth
was thought sinister back then, when it was dubbed “diabolus in musica”. We still find it slightly unsettling today,
which might explain why it is so popularly used in heavy metal.
Towards the end of my evening with Philip Ball, I asked whether music's effects on the brain can be harnessed
for good. It was a perfect set-up for him to examine the so-called “Mozart effect” - the belief that playing your
children classical music will make them brainier. He cited an experiment conducted in 1996, which concluded
that playing babies rock music had a more beneficial effect than did playing them Mozart. The essential factor
was not the music per se, but the fact that it put the children in bright spirits.
For Ball, the definition of the “music instinct” is that we are predisposed to make the world a musical place. Apart
from the tiny proportion of the population who really are tone-deaf, it is impossible to say: “I am not musical”,
even if it may seem that way whenever you get dragged along to participate in karaoke.
