Introduction
Oxford Exchange 4 Higher-level tests 2
This booklet contains a full set of
photocopiable test material for use with
Oxford Exchange 4.
● ten end-of-unit tests
● three end-of-term tests
● one end-of-year-test
Higher-level tests
The higher-level tests evaluate your students’
command of the language covered in Oxford
Exchange through more challenging exercises
than those contained in the test booklet. You
can use them with a whole class where most
students are coping well with the Oxford
Exchange coursework, or to cater for more
able students in mixed-ability groups.
CD-ROM
The higher-level tests are also available on
CD-ROM so that you can copy the files onto
your computer and adapt them to suit the
needs of your students.
End-of-unit tests
There are ten end-of-unit tests designed to
follow the Student’s Book units, and eachof them should take 40 minutes to complete.
The tests all contain a Vocabulary section
(10 marks), and a Grammar section (20
marks), followed by Reading and Writing (5
marks each).
End-of-term and End-of-year tests
The end-of-term and end-of-year tests
should take about one hour and should be
administered at the end of each term. Theyare divided into four sections: Vocabulary,
Grammar, Reading and Writing, and are
marked out of a total of 50.
End-of-term test 1 is designed to be used after
Unit 3, End-of-term test 2 after Unit 7, and
End-of-term test 3 after Unit 10.
The end-of-term tests are cumulative – that is,
End-of-term test 2 covers language from terms
1 and 2, while End-of-term test 3 covers
language from all three terms. You may want
to use End-of-term test 3 as a practice test in
preparation for the final End-of-year test.
Test summary sheet
There is a test summary sheet on page 5 of this
booklet, which can be used to keep a record of
students’ test results during the year.
Suggestions for using the tests
● Warn students in advance that they will be
having a test and tell them what the test will
be covering.● Students need to develop procedures for
revision, so encourage them to look back
through their notebooks and to use the
Grammar and Vocabulary pages at the back
of the Student’s Book. You might also want
to discuss the amount of time students
should spend revising.
● Before students begin a test, spend a few
minutes looking through it with the class
and make sure that everyone understands
how to do each type of activity.● Students may need extra paper to carry out
the writing tasks.

5 Read the text and answer the questions.
My name’s Helen and my best friend is
Nicola. We’re both 16. We met eleven
years ago when we first went to school.We go to the same girls’ school, but
Nicola and I are very different. She is very
sporty – she loves running and doing
athletics, and I’m very musical – I sing in
a group, and I play the piano and the
violin.
We have very different personalities,
too. For example, if we watch a romantic
film, I always cry, and if we watch a
horror film, I’m always terrified. Nicola is
the opposite – she doesn’t show her
feelings. My favourite thing about Nicolais that she is always honest. If I ask her
opinion about a new dress or a boy at a
party, she always tells the truth. She’s
also very patient. She doesn’t mind
waiting for me when I’m late for things.
Nicola is great, but there are some
things about her that drive me mad. She
is too modest. She blushes every time
someone says something nice about her.
She’s also very, very tidy. Everything is in
the correct place in her bedroom. (Mine is
the complete opposite because I hatetidying!) The worst habit she has is
getting up early. She goes running before
school and she never stays in bed late at
weekends. I hate people who are active in
the mornings – I’m sleepy for an hour
after I wake up.
1 How long has Helen known Nicola?
…………….....................................................
2 How are the girls different at school?…………….....................................................
3 Who is more emotional?
…………….....................................................
4 Does Nicola tell lies?

5 Does Nicola get upset when Helen is late?

6 What makes Nicola go red?

6 Read the text and answer the questions.
My friend, Tina, told me about the flat
where she used to live. It was on the first
floor of an old house in a quiet part of town.The flat had big rooms and a view over a
pretty garden. The sitting room was at the
front of the house and it had very big
windows. It was a lovely, light room but it
always felt cold, even when the sun was
shining brightly.
That wasn’t the only unusual thing about
it. Tina said that there were lots of strange
noises in different parts of the flat. She
could hear whispers in the kitchen and a
man humming in the sitting room. Tina is a
very balanced person and she never feltscared when she heard the noises. Then
an incident took place in July last year.
Tina went out on a sunny morning with
her brother, Dave. When they returned, the
flat felt very cold. Dave went to the kitchen
to make some coffee and Tina walked into
the sitting room. She saw the back of a
man’s head on the sofa opposite the
window. ‘I thought you were making coffee,’
Tina said. Then she heard Dave’s voice
from the kitchen and she screamed. Shelooked back at the sofa and the man had
disappeared.
A month later, Tina was preparing to
move to a new flat when she found an
old newspaper. She read an article about
a young man who had died suddenly in
the flat.

YOUR FUTURE IN WORK
It’s important to start planning your
future when you are still at school.
THINK ABOUT YOUR FUTURE
Think about what sort of work you are
interested in and where you can use
your skills. It’s no good training to be a
computer programmer if you hate
computers! Lots of people have dream
jobs like being a singer or racing driver,
but it’s important to be practical. Getting
training and opportunities for these jobs
can be very difficult. Make a list of three
areas of work that interest you and find
out as much as you can about eachone. Then decide which is best for you.
THINK ABOUT QUALIFICATIONS
There are a lot of general qualifications
that are useful in all jobs. A good basic
education is very important, including
Maths, a foreign language, and
computer skills. Courses at universities
or colleges will give more specific
training, but it’s important to choose
something that will help you find a job.
Interviewers are not always interested in
very specialized qualifications.
THINK ABOUT PERSONAL QUALITIES
Think about what type of person you
are and the qualities you need for your
chosen job. It’s a good idea to interview
someone in the same job and find out
what they are like. Make a list of your
good and bad characteristics and try to
work on the bad points. For example, if
you aren’t very organized, keep a diary
and write lists of what you need to do.

2 When should young people start to think
about their future?

Dear Elena
Thanks for your birthday card. I had a lovelyday and lots of nice presents. I hope you are
feeling better now and that your cold has gone.
I've got some interesting news. My exam results
were good and so I decided to look for a
summer job. I saw and advert for an au pair to
look after two children from July to September.
The family wanted someone who is practical,
organized and reliable. (I've spent so long
looking after my little brother and sister that I
think I have those qualities!)
I filled in an application form and sent aphotograph but I haven't had an interview yet.
The father rang me and the family wants to
meet me next week. I'm a bit nervous about it
because the father was a little aggressive over
the phone. I really want to impress the family,
so have you got any tips for the interview.
I saw my ex-boyfriend, James, the other day.
He was with his new gïrlfriend, Anna. She was
staring at me angrily when I hugged James.
She told me about her success at school and in
sports. I think she's quite a competitive person -
just the opposite to James. I haven't because I
hope I'll have a new job soon.
That's all for now. Say hello to your mum and
dad.
Phone or write soon with your news.
Love
Emma

THE FILM INDUSTRYby Clare Harris
In general, films are a very popular form
of entertainment. Dramas can show you
different countries and how people live.
Comedies are great for helping you to
relax and forget your problems. Science
fiction shows you life in the future. In
addition, a lot of jobs are created in the
film industry – actors, camera operators,
make-up, lighting, music, etc.
On the other hand, not all aspects offilms are positive. The international film
industry is dominated by American film-
makers. Most films that are shown in
British cinemas are American and smaller
independent film companies can’t
compete. In addition, US companies use
only very popular actors who attract very
big cinema audiences. This creates
problems for new actors who don’t get
opportunities to appear on screen.
In conclusion, films can give you
information and ideas. They can also helpyou escape from your ordinary life. On the
other hand, there is a danger that all films
will become the same if they are imported
from the USA. People should watch films
made in their own country to help the
local industry.

Emma’s diary page –
Friday 16th November
I went out with Dave again tonight. We’vebeen out lots of time since the middle ofSeptember when we met. He’s really nice –we never have arguments – but he’s a bittoo unemotional for me. He bought mesome flowers once, but he hasn’t been veryromantic since then. My old boyfriendsused to write love letters and poems and Ireally liked that.
I’m not really sure what to do. I don’t wantto split up but I think we need to makesome changes. We’ve seen each otherthree times every week since Septemberand I think that’s too much. I’d prefer to goout at weekends and not meet in the week.I hope that will make the relationship moreinteresting. I’ll also have more time to seemy friends and concentrate on my studies.
I think the problem may be our star signs.I’m Scorpio – very hot-blooded and
sensitive and Dave is Libra – very balancedand logical. But my mum and dad are verydifferent and they have been happilymarried for years. Perhaps I need a lovepotion to make Dave more romantic or Icould give him a book of love stories. It’smy birthday soon, so I hope Daveorganizes something special for me – aromantic dinner for two would be lovely(better than our last meal together in a fast-food café!)

4 Read the text and answer the questions.
I was never very interested in art at school
but I went to an exhibition of local artists last
year. My friend had bought two tickets for
herself and her brother, but he couldn’t go, so
I used his ticket. When my friend and I looked
at a list of the exhibits, we saw that there
were over one hundred. I thought, ‘Oh no!
We are going to be here for hours.’
The exhibits were divided into different
rooms and they included sculptures,
portraits, still lifes, and landscapes. We
walked from room to room for about an
hour and then my friend asked for my
opinion. I was very bored but I didn’t want
to offend her so I said, ‘Oh, it’s fascinating.’My friend then looked at another painting,
so I walked into the next room.
I couldn’t believe my eyes. There was a
mural which filled the whole wall. The style
was abstract, but I could see the main
elements of the picture – mountains, a river,
tall trees and sunlight. The shapes were
simple and the colours were light and
delicate. The best thing about the image was
its effect – it made me feel completely calm
and balanced.
I was still looking at the mural when myfriend appeared. She thought that it was
rather cold and depressing, which I couldn’t
understand. People’s reactions to art are a
very personal thing, but I’ve visited a lot more
exhibitions since I saw my beautiful mural.

5 Read the text and answer the questions.
ANIMALS OF THE WORLD
If you talk to people about the natural world, mostpeople will say they love animals. But a lot of people
don’t realize that many types of animal need
protection. The human race doesn’t respect the
environment and this puts animals in danger. For
example, forests where animals live are being cut
down, the seas are being polluted, and animals are
being killed for their skins.
ANIMALS AT HOME
Many people have animals at home but this does not
mean they look after them well. Parents sometimes
buy cats, dogs, and rabbits for their children without
explaining what to do with them. It is fashionable tobuy exotic pets like snakes and birds, but people
can’t provide the right conditions for them, so they
suffer.
WHAT DO WE DO?
Save The Animals has worked since 1996 to improve
the situation for animals all over the world. We work
with local people to protect animal environments,
boycott companies who pollute the seas, and
campaign against hunting. Last year we sent a
petition to the government to stop the import of exotic
animals for sale in pet shops.
WHAT CAN YOU DO?
We need your help to continue our work. You can
donate money or give us some of your time. We
always need people to organize petitions, collect
money in the street, and join us on demonstrations.

Dear Sir or Madam
I am writing to complain about your news
programme ‘The World Today’, which is
shown every weekday at 6.30 p.m. and 9.30
p.m. The programme that was shown on
Wednesday 19 July at 6.30 was particularly
worrying. I was watching television with my
two young children at that time and images
of war and children suffering from disease
were shown. No warning was given to tell
viewers that the content of the film was
shocking. Both of my children cried and I had
to switch the programme off.

I then watched the later news programme
after my children had gone to bed. I was
expecting to receive more information on
the war situation, but only a brief report
was given. Most of the half-hour
programme was an interview with a pop
star who has recently got engaged to a
footballer. I am not interested in this couple
and their romance, but it would be better to
show these people in your earlier
programme when children are watching.
I understand that the news has to show
images that are moving or frightening.
However, if you don’t inform people of this
before you show the report, I will have to
stop watching your channel.
I look forward to receiving your reply.

We interviewed one hundred teenagers on clothesand image and we got some surprising answers.
Designer clothesEverybody thinks that young people insist onwearing Armani, Gucci and Donna Karan, but onlyhalf of our survey said they would like to have moredesigner labels. Most of them said they had onedesigner item which they loved to wear, e.g. a pairof trainers, a jacket, or a sweater. They thought that
people who wore designer labels from head to toewere unimaginative.
Body shapeThe media is full of models, but only a fewteenagers thought the models had the ‘perfect body’.Most of the teenagers said they were too thin and
that they didn’t look healthy. A few individuals saidthey would like to be taller or slimmer themselves.Everybody in the survey knew about the dangers ofanorexia and bulimia, but nobody said they hadsuffered from these disorders. Only one or twoteenagers would like to have cosmetic surgery toimprove their looks.

There was a mixed response to the questions on body art. Half of the teenagers said they would liketo have a tattoo (this included as many girls as boys).Very few were interested in body piercing in thetongue or nose, as they thought it looked ugly andwould be painful. (Most of the girls said they had
pierced ears, however.) Make-up and contact lenseswere considered acceptable ways of improving yourimage by all teenagers in the survey.

5 Read the text and answer the questions.
Travel and holidays are changing. In the
past, people were happy to spend two
weeks on the beach or in a city sightseeing.
Now people want more from their holiday –
not just relaxation and sunshine, but a real
experience. Activity holidays have become
very popular in recent years. These are
organized for people who want to do an
activity like diving, canoeing or windsurfing,
or learn a new skill like drawing, painting or
speaking a foreign language.
World issues like animal rights and
environmental protection have also had an
effect on travel. People are keen to seeanimals in their natural habitat and not in
zoos, so wildlife holidays have developed
recently. Animal-lovers can choose from a
wide range of wildlife in different continents,
including dolphins, birds and sharks.
Travelling to exotic countries can have a
negative effect on the local environment and
the people. Some organizations now offer
‘green’ holidays which use environmentally-
friendly hotels, and pay local people a fair
wage for the work they do.
Choosing and booking your holiday is nowhi-tech. In the past, people had to go to their
nearest travel agency to get information
about holidays. Now people can also see
adverts for holidays on TV, in newspapers
and in magazines. The Internet is a fast and
efficient way of booking a trip. People who
don’t like planning in advance are fans of the
Internet, because they can get the latest
information at any time of day or night.

NICK’S DIARY – 17 JUNE
This is the fourteenth day of our journey and
things have been quite difficult. We couldn’t find
fresh water or food so we had to walk to the lake
to try to get some fish. I’m also having problems
with some of my companions. I share a tent with
Adam who snores all night and Jim, our guide, is
really getting on my nerves. He’s always
boasting about his adventures – he said that he
walked round the world for charity. That may be
true, but he isn’t a very experienced guide.
We’ve been lost in the forest so many times!
But I mustn’t complain. We’ve seen so many
beautiful sights. Last week was spent in the
desert. It was amazing – I had never seen a
scorpion until now and it was great to ride a
camel again. The forest is incredible too – such
a variety of wildlife and plants that I could never
see at home. If I had more time, I would stay in
this area and explore some more. In two or three
days, we’re moving on to the border, where
there’s a small town.
Jim said he wanted to go nightclubbing in the
town if he could! Why travel to a differentcontinent to do the things you can do at home?
For me, travelling is about meeting local people,
eating local food and trying to understand a
different culture. If there is a club in the town, I
won’t go to it …

Today was my last day at school and I felt
surprisingly emotional. I didn’t cry but
I spent a lot of time hugging my friends and
I even kissed a couple of my teachers! The day
started with my last English lesson, but I’ll be
continuing the subject at university because
I want to be a journalist. We studied a poem about
a young person looking into the future, which was
great fun.
All the lessons that followed were quite relaxed
– we spent most of the time chatting and asking
questions. Some of the teachers gave us advice
and the most important message was to workhard but to have a good time too. One teacher
asked about the first thing we wanted to do when
we left. My reply was to dye my hair, because it
had been completely forbidden at school.
I asked my friends how they felt about the future.
Most of them said they were optimistic and felt
confident about their plans. My best friend, Lucy,
however, said she felt depressed about the
environment and the problems in the world. She is
the only one of my friends who wants to volunteer
to work in the developing world. The rest of us aredivided into two groups – those who want to
continue studying and those who are looking for a
job. One of the boys boasted that he had already
got a job as a computer programmer and that he
would be a millionaire soon.
