Reading Section
In this part of the test you have to choose the best answer to each question from the

The following text is for questions 16 to 18.

I think my first trip to New Zealand was the best experience of my life. I met quite a lot
of nice people there. I made acquaintance with Jenny, Harry, Joseph, Rexi, and Bryan. They
introduced me to their families. We had barbeque times in Rexi’s and Joseph’s houses.
Joseph and Jenny are brother and sister while Rexi and Bryan are twins.
You can find sheep almost everywhere in New Zealand. The tranquil meadow where
the sheep graze always appears in my mind everytime I go to sleep. Jenny’s father has a lot of
sheep and he showed me his wool cutting machinery, which he uses to collect the sheep’s fur
before processing it into wool thread.
For some people touring is a relaxing experience. Yet, for me it is completely the
opposite. I had to spend time more than 24 hours in the same clothes with greasy hair and 3
hours of sleep. I would rather have travelled from Auckland to Milford Sound in more easy
way. We could have spent a night or soin a hotel, not in our vehicle. However, having a
bunch of friends along the way perked me up. It makes me want to come back to New
Zealand again.
