Read this practice adaptation based on English for Today, Unit 6, Lesson 1, and answer Questions 1–3. The wording is adapted for this model. Nepal brings natural beauty and cultural heritage together. Kathmandu is its capital. In the Kathmandu Valley, the ancient cities of Patan, Kathmandu and Bhaktapur are known for their architecture and religious monuments. UNESCO has recognised seven monument zones in the valley as World Heritage Sites. Nepal is also important to people of different faiths. Lumbini, in the southern plains, is the birthplace of Gautam Buddha and a destination for Buddhist pilgrims. Hindus visit the Temple of Pashupatinath. Hindu and Buddhist communities have lived alongside one another for centuries. Some temples and shrines are shared, and many people combine practices from both traditions. Such places remind visitors that cultural heritage includes buildings as well as the ways people live together.

Read the following original fictional account for Questions 4–5. On 4 March 2026, Mina, a teacher at fictional Shapla School, started a reading club with twenty-four students. An unused storeroom became their reading room. The students cleaned it, repaired two tables and arranged sixty donated books on a shelf. They met every Saturday at ten in the morning. Each meeting began with ten minutes of silent reading. Members then discussed a story and explained one idea that had surprised them. At first, several students were afraid of speaking. Mina allowed them to practise in pairs before speaking to the whole group. Six weeks later, the club had forty-two members. A local bookseller donated twelve more books. The students kept a borrowing register and returned the books on time. The club did not give prizes for reading the largest number of books. Instead, it encouraged careful reading, respectful discussion and responsible sharing. Complete these information entries with short phrases or numbers.
