AUDIO MATNI (transkript — ustoz yoki sherigingiz ovoz chiqarib o'qiydi) Good morning, everyone, and welcome to the Samarkand Summer Language School. My name is Dilnoza, and I'm the course coordinator. Classes start every weekday at 9 o'clock in the morning and finish at half past one. After lunch, there are optional activities: on Mondays and Wednesdays we have conversation clubs, and on Thursdays there's a film afternoon. Please note that the library is open until 6 p.m., and you'll need your student card to borrow books — you can collect it from reception on your first day. Each student is allowed to borrow up to four books at a time. If you're staying in our residence, breakfast is served from 7 to 8:30 in the dining hall on the ground floor. Finally, our weekend trip this Saturday is to Shahrisabz. The coach leaves at 8 a.m. from the main gate, and the price, including lunch, is 150,000 som. Please register at reception by Thursday evening. 9. Classes finish every weekday at half past ______. Javob: one✔ 10. On Thursdays students can attend a ______ afternoon. Javob: film ✔ 11. Students need a student ______ to borrow books. Javob: card ✔ 12. Each student can borrow up to ______ books at a time. Javob: four ✔ 13. This Saturday's trip is to ______. Javob: Shahrisabz ✔ 14. Students should register for the trip by ______ evening. Javob: Thursday ✔ Part 3 (15–18) You will hear four people talking. Match each speaker (15–18) to the statement A–F. There are two extra statements. Speaker 1 I used to think that working from home would be perfect. No traffic, no dress code... But after a few months I realised I really missed my colleagues. We used to solve problems together over a cup of tea, and now everything happens by email. It's efficient, but it feels lonely. Speaker 2 For me, the best thing about my job is that every day is different. One day I'm visiting a construction site, the next I'm presenting to clients. Yes, it can be stressful, and the hours are long, but I'd be bored in a routine office job. Speaker 3 I changed careers at forty. Everyone said I was crazy to leave a well-paid position in a bank to become a teacher. My salary is lower now, of course, but I've never regretted it. Seeing students make progress gives me a satisfaction money can't buy. Speaker 4 What matters most to me is having enough time for my family. That's why I chose a part-time contract. I earn less, but I can pick my children up from school and help them with homework. I think many people underestimate how important that is. Ingliz tili — multilevel mock-testlar | 4 A) Job satisfaction is more important than salary. B) Variety in work makes up for the pressure. C) Technology has made work more sociable. D) A good work-life balance is a priority. E) Working alone can feel isolating. F) Long holidays are the main benefit of a job. 15. Speaker 1 Javob: E✔ 16. Speaker 2 Javob: B ✔ 17.

AUDIO MATNI (transkript — ustoz yoki sherigingiz ovoz chiqarib o'qiydi) Today I'd like to talk about the history of paper. Although we often think of paper as a European invention, it was actually developed in China around the year 105, and it is traditionally credited to an official called Cai Lun. He made paper from the bark of mulberry trees, old rags and fishing nets. For several centuries the technique remained a closely guarded secret. It reached Central Asia in the eighth century, and Samarkand quickly became one of the most famous paper-making centres in the Islamic world. Samarkand paper was valued for its smooth surface and its strength, and it was exported to Baghdad and beyond. Interestingly, paper-makers in Samarkand used cotton and linen fibres rather than tree bark. From the Middle East, paper travelled to Spain and Italy, and by the fifteenth century, when the printing press appeared, Europe had enough paper to print books in large numbers. Without this long journey along the Silk Road, the printing revolution might have been much slower. 30. Paper was first developed in China around the year ______. Javob: 105 ✔ 31. Cai Lun made paper from the bark of ______ trees. Javob: mulberry ✔ 32. Paper-making reached Central Asia in the ______ century. Javob: eighth ✔ 33.

During deep sleep, the brain sorts the information collected during the day and moves important facts into long-term memory. Students who sleep well after studying remember significantly more the next day. Paragraph 16 Most experts recommend that people aged 13 to 18 sleep between eight and ten hours a night. However, surveys show that the majority get less than seven, especially during exam periods. Paragraph 17 Phones and tablets give off blue light, which tells the brain that it is still daytime. As a result, people who use devices in bed often take longer to fall asleep and wake up feeling tired. Paragraph 18 Many people believe they can repay a 'sleep debt' by sleeping late on Saturday and Sunday. Research suggests this does not fully work: the body clock is disturbed, and Monday mornings become even harder. Paragraph 19 Going to bed and getting up at the same time every day, avoiding heavy meals in the evening and keeping the bedroom cool and dark are small changes that can improve sleep quality within a week. Paragraph 20 In some countries, schools have experimented with starting lessons an hour later. Supporters say pupils are more alert; critics point out that it creates problems for parents and transport. 15. Paragraph 15 Javob: A✔ 16. Paragraph 16 Javob: C ✔ 17. Paragraph 17 Javob: B ✔ 18.

The Return of the Silk Road For more than a thousand years, the Silk Road connected China with the Mediterranean, carrying not only silk but also spices, paper, glass, ideas and religions. Cities such as Samarkand, Bukhara and Khiva grew rich as caravans stopped to rest and trade. However, when European sailors discovered sea routes to Asia in the fifteenth and sixteenth centuries, the overland routes slowly lost their importance, and many caravan cities declined. Today, the Silk Road is enjoying a second life — this time as a tourist route. Uzbekistan, in particular, has invested heavily in tourism. Visa requirements have been simplified for citizens of dozens of countries, high-speed trains now link Tashkent, Samarkand and Bukhara, and hundreds of small family guesthouses have opened in historic centres. In 2019 the number of foreign visitors more than doubled compared Ingliz tili — multilevel mock-testlar | 10 with three years earlier. Not everyone is completely happy with this success. Some residents of old neighbourhoods complain about rising property prices, while conservation experts warn that too many visitors could damage fragile buildings. Local authorities are trying to find a balance by limiting the number of people inside certain monuments and encouraging tourists to visit lesser-known towns. For many young people, though, tourism has created exciting opportunities. Guides who speak foreign languages are in high demand, and craftspeople, from carpet weavers to potters, have found new customers for their work. As one guesthouse owner in Bukhara put it, 'The caravans have come back — they just travel by train now.' 21. Why did many caravan cities decline? A) Trade with China was banned. B) Silk was no longer fashionable. C) Wars destroyed the routes. D) Sea routes to Asia became more important. Javob: D✔ 22. What has NOT been mentioned as a change in Uzbek tourism? A) Simpler visa rules B) Family guesthouses C) New international airports D) Fast trains between cities Javob: C ✔ 23. What are conservation experts worried about? A) Rising hotel prices B) A lack of guides C) Pollution from trains D) Damage to old buildings Javob: D ✔ 24. What does the guesthouse owner mean? A) Trade has returned in a new form. B) Caravans still cross the desert. C) Trains are faster than camels. D) Tourists prefer modern transport. Javob: A ✔ Questions 25–29.

Urban Gardens Across the world, city dwellers are rediscovering the pleasure of growing their own food. Rooftop gardens, community allotments and even vegetables grown on balconies are becoming common sights. Supporters argue that urban gardening reduces the distance food travels, which lowers transport pollution, and that it gives people — especially children — a better understanding of where food comes from. Researchers have also found that spending time gardening reduces stress and encourages neighbours to talk to each other. However, there are challenges. Land in cities is expensive, soil can be contaminated by industrial pollution, and not every building can support the weight of a rooftop garden. Successful projects usually rely on cooperation between residents and local councils, which can offer unused land and expert advice. 30. Urban gardening reduces the ______ that food has to travel. Javob: distance✔ 31. It helps children understand where ______ comes from. Javob: food ✔ 32. Gardening has been shown to reduce ______. Javob: stress ✔ 33. Soil in cities may be contaminated by industrial ______. Javob: pollution ✔ 34. What is one problem with rooftop gardens? A) Some buildings cannot hold the weight. B) Neighbours dislike them. C) They are too noisy. D) Vegetables grow too slowly. Javob: A ✔ 35. What do successful projects depend on? A) Very large plots of land B) Expensive equipment C) Cooperation with local councils D) Private companies Javob: C ✔ Ingliz tili — multilevel mock-testlar | 12 WRITING (yozish) SITUATION You recently attended a weekend festival in your city. Unfortunately, there were several problems: the tickets were more expensive than advertised, there were not enough seats, and the main concert started two hours late. Task 1.1 1.1. Write a letter to your friend who also wanted to go. Tell him/her about the festival and your feelings. Write about 50 words. Namunaviy javob:✔ Hi Aziza, You didn't miss much! The festival was a real disappointment. Tickets cost more than the website said, we had to stand for hours because there weren't enough seats, and the main concert started two hours late. I was so tired and annoyed. Let's find something better next month! Love, Kamola Task 1.2 1.2. Write a letter to the festival organisers. Describe the problems and say what you would like them to do. Write about 120–150 words. Namunaviy javob: ✔ Dear Sir or Madam, I am writing to complain about the City Weekend Festival, which I attended on 12 October. Firstly, the ticket price at the entrance was 50,000 som higher than the price advertised on your website. Secondly, there were far too few seats, so many visitors, including elderly people, had to stand for several hours. Finally, the main concert began two hours later than scheduled, and no explanation or apology was given. As a result, my experience was very disappointing, and I feel that I did not receive the service I paid for. I would therefore like to request a partial refund of the ticket price. I would also suggest that in future you provide more seating and inform visitors promptly about any delays. I look forward to your reply. Yours faithfully, Kamola Rashidova Task 2 2. Some people believe that young people should spend a year working or travelling before they go to university. Others think they should start their studies immediately. Discuss both views and give your own opinion. Write about 180–200 words. Namunaviy javob: ✔ Many school leavers face a difficult choice: should they begin university at once or take a 'gap year'? Both options have clear advantages. On the one hand, a year of work or travel can help young people mature. They learn to manage money, solve problems independently and communicate with people from different backgrounds. Some students also discover what they really want to study, which prevents them from choosing the wrong degree. On the other hand, starting university immediately has its own benefits. Students keep their study habits and academic knowledge fresh, and they graduate earlier, which means they can begin their careers sooner. In addition, a gap year can be expensive, and some young people lose motivation and never return to education. Ingliz tili — multilevel mock-testlar | 13 In my opinion, a gap year is useful only if it is well planned. If a student has a clear goal, such as volunteering, saving money for tuition or improving a foreign language, the experience can be extremely valuable. However, without a plan, it is better to continue studying. In conclusion, the decision should depend on the individual's maturity and goals rather than on fashion. SPEAKING (gapirish) Part 1.1 Answer the questions about yourself (about 30 seconds each). 1. Where are you from, and what do you like about your hometown? 2. What do you usually do at weekends? 3. Do you prefer reading books or watching films? Why? Part 1.2 Look at the two pictures (described below). Compare them and answer the questions. Picture 1 Picture 1: A family having dinner together at home, around a large table with traditional dishes. Picture 2 Picture 2: A group of young friends eating fast food in a busy shopping-centre food court. 4. Compare the two pictures. What are the people doing? 5. Which kind of meal do you prefer and why? 6. How have eating habits changed in your country in recent years? Part 2 You have 1 minute to prepare and up to 2 minutes to speak. CUE CARD Describe a skill you would like to learn in the future. • What is the skill? • Why would you like to learn it? • How would it change your life? Part 3 Read the statement and the arguments. You have 1 minute to prepare and 2 minutes to speak about both sides, then give your opinion. Online learning should replace traditional classroom education. FOR AGAINST It is flexible and saves travel time. Lack of face-to-face interaction. Students can learn at their own pace. Requires strong self-discipline. Access to courses from top universities. Not everyone has a reliable internet connection. Maslahat:✔ Part 2: gapirishdan oldin 1 daqiqa tayyorlaning, har bir savolga 2–3 jumladan javob bering.

Charging at home costs very little, but long trips are still a problem — there simply aren't enough charging stations outside the big cities. Speaker 2 Honestly, I don't see why people need a car in Tashkent at all. The metro is fast and cheap, and taxis are easy to find with an app. I sold my car two years ago and I've saved a fortune on parking and repairs. Speaker 3 I cycle to work every day. It keeps me fit and I never get stuck in traffic. The only thing I'd change is the lack of proper bike lanes — sometimes I feel quite unsafe on busy roads. Speaker 4 For my family, a car is essential. We live outside the city, and with three children and their different schools and clubs, public transport just wouldn't work. I wish it were more environmentally friendly, though. Ingliz tili — multilevel mock-testlar | 16 A) Public transport makes owning a car unnecessary.

AUDIO MATNI (transkript — ustoz yoki sherigingiz ovoz chiqarib o'qiydi) In today's talk I'm going to discuss the Aral Sea, which was once the fourth-largest lake in the world. In the 1960s, large irrigation projects diverted the water of the two rivers that fed the sea — the Amu Darya and the Syr Darya — in order to grow cotton in the desert. As a result, the sea began to shrink rapidly. By the 2010s it had lost about ninety per cent of its volume, and its eastern basin had almost completely dried up. The consequences have been severe. The fishing industry, which once employed tens of thousands of people, collapsed. Dust storms now carry salt and chemicals from the dry seabed, causing health problems for local people. The climate of the region has also become more extreme, with hotter summers and colder winters. However, there is some good news. A dam built in Kazakhstan has helped the northern part of the sea to recover, and fish have returned there. In Uzbekistan, millions of saxaul trees have been planted on the dry seabed to reduce dust storms. 30. The Aral Sea was once the ______-largest lake in the world. Javob: fourth ✔ 31.

It is one of the oldest holidays in the world, celebrated for more than three thousand years. Paragraph 16 Long before the holiday begins, families clean their homes from top to bottom, repair broken things and buy new clothes. It is believed that the new year should start with everything fresh and tidy. Paragraph 17 The most famous Navruz dish in Uzbekistan is sumalak, made from sprouted wheat. Women gather around a huge pot and stir it through the night, singing songs, until it becomes a sweet brown paste by morning. Paragraph 18 Navruz is also a time to forgive old disagreements. People visit relatives and neighbours, apologise for past mistakes and wish each other happiness for the coming year. Paragraph 19 In villages, Navruz is accompanied by traditional sports such as kurash wrestling and kupkari, a horse game in which riders compete for a goat. Children enjoy swings and kite flying.

Learning Languages in the Age of AI When automatic translation apps first appeared, many people predicted that learning foreign languages would soon become unnecessary. Why spend years studying grammar when a phone can translate a conversation in seconds? Yet, more than a decade later, the number of people learning languages has not fallen. In fact, online language courses are more popular than ever. One reason is that translation technology, although impressive, is still far from perfect. It struggles with humour, idioms and cultural references, and it can make serious mistakes in legal or medical texts. Professionals who need precise communication still rely on human translators — and on their own language skills. Ingliz tili — multilevel mock-testlar | 22 Another reason is that language learning offers benefits that technology cannot replace. Studies show that bilingual people are often better at switching between tasks, and some research suggests that speaking two languages may delay memory problems in old age. Moreover, speaking someone's language builds trust in a way that a machine cannot. As one business consultant said, 'If you talk to a man in a language he understands, that goes to his head. If you talk to him in his own language, that goes to his heart.' Interestingly, artificial intelligence is also changing how people learn. Chatbots allow students to practise conversation at any time, and apps adapt exercises to each learner's weaknesses. Rather than replacing language learning, technology may be making it easier and more personal than ever before. 21. What did many people predict about translation apps? A) They would only work for English. B) They would replace all teachers. C) They would make language learning unnecessary. D) They would be too expensive. Javob: C✔ 22.

The Benefits of Volunteering Volunteering is often seen as something people do purely to help others, but research shows that volunteers themselves gain a great deal. Young people who volunteer develop practical skills such as teamwork, organisation and leadership, which employers value highly. Many also report that volunteering helped them decide on a career. For older people, regular volunteering has been linked to lower blood pressure and a reduced risk of loneliness. However, experts warn that volunteering works best when it is a free choice. When schools or companies make volunteering compulsory, participants often feel less motivated and gain fewer benefits. Organisations that want to attract volunteers should therefore offer flexible schedules and meaningful tasks. 30. Young volunteers develop skills such as teamwork, organisation and ______.

Task 1.1 1.1. Write a message to your classmate. Tell him/her about the news and suggest what you could do. Write about 50 words. Namunaviy javob:✔ Hey Sardor, Have you heard? The canteen is closing next month for three months, and there's nowhere else to eat! I think we should ask the student council to talk to the director. Maybe a food truck could come during the renovation. Shall we write a petition together? Aziz Task 1.2 1.2. Write a letter to the college director. Explain why the situation is a problem and suggest possible solutions. Write about 120–150 words. Namunaviy javob: ✔ Dear Director, I am writing on behalf of the second-year students regarding the closure of the canteen for renovation. While we understand that the renovation is necessary, the lack of an alternative food service for three months will cause serious difficulties. Many students attend classes from 8 a.m. until 5 p.m. and live far from the college, so they will have no opportunity to eat a proper meal during the day. This may affect both their health and their concentration in class. We would therefore like to suggest a few solutions. The college could invite a food truck to park near the main entrance, or a classroom could be temporarily equipped with tables and microwave ovens. Alternatively, an agreement with a nearby café could provide students with discounted lunches. We would be grateful if you could consider these proposals. Yours faithfully, Aziz Karimov, student representative Task 2 2. In many cities, the number of private cars is increasing rapidly. What problems does this cause, and what measures could governments take to solve them? Write about 180–200 words. Namunaviy javob: ✔ The rapid growth in the number of private cars is one of the most visible changes in modern cities. While cars offer comfort and freedom, their increasing number creates several serious problems. The most obvious problem is traffic congestion. Long traffic jams waste millions of hours every year and make it difficult for emergency vehicles to move quickly. Secondly, cars are a major source of air pollution, which contributes to respiratory diseases, especially among children and elderly people. Finally, as more space is used for roads and parking, there is less room for parks and pedestrian areas. Governments can take several measures to address these issues. First, they should invest in fast, reliable and affordable public transport, such as metro lines and modern buses, so that people have a real alternative to driving. Second, cities could introduce paid parking in central areas and create safe cycle lanes. Third, governments could encourage electric vehicles through tax reductions and charging infrastructure. In conclusion, the problems caused by private cars are serious, but a combination of better public transport and smart regulations can make cities cleaner and more pleasant to live in.

Bees are responsible for pollinating around one third of the food crops we eat, including apples, almonds and melons. A single colony can contain up to sixty thousand bees, but only one of them, the queen, lays eggs — up to two thousand a day in summer. Worker bees communicate the location of flowers through a remarkable 'waggle dance', which shows both the direction and the distance of the food source. Unfortunately, bee populations have declined in many countries. Scientists point to several causes: the use of pesticides, the loss of wild flowers due to intensive farming, and parasites such as the varroa mite. What can be done? Farmers can plant strips of wild flowers along their fields, cities can create green roofs, and even individuals can help by growing bee-friendly plants like lavender on their balconies. 30.

Many people thought it was a foolish move: she had no business experience, and she used all her savings to rent the premises. Paragraph 17 The first year was hard. A badly chosen location meant few customers, and a supplier delivered poor- quality flour. 'I lost money,' she says, 'but I learned which mistakes never to repeat.' Paragraph 18 Throughout this period her parents and brothers worked in the bakery for free at weekends, and her grandmother shared old family recipes that became bestsellers.

Fast Fashion and Its Hidden Costs Clothes have never been cheaper. Thanks to so-called 'fast fashion', shoppers can buy a new T-shirt for the price of a cup of coffee, and some retailers release new collections every week. The average consumer now buys about sixty per cent more clothing than fifteen years ago, but keeps each item for only half as long. This convenience has a price that is not shown on the label. The fashion industry is one of the largest users of water in the world: producing a single pair of jeans can require several thousand litres, much of it for growing cotton. Dyeing and finishing textiles pollutes rivers in producing countries, and synthetic fabrics such as polyester release tiny plastic fibres every time they are washed. The human cost is also significant. Many garments are made in factories where wages are low and working conditions are poor. Following several tragic factory accidents, international campaigns have pressured brands to check their suppliers more carefully. There are signs of change. Second-hand clothing apps are growing rapidly, some brands now offer repair services, and a number of countries are introducing rules that make producers responsible for collecting Ingliz tili — multilevel mock-testlar | 35 and recycling old clothes. Experts say that the most effective step, however, is the simplest one: buying fewer, better-quality items and wearing them longer. 21.

It requires no equipment, no membership fees and no special skills, yet doctors say that just thirty minutes of brisk walking a day can significantly reduce the risk of heart disease, diabetes and depression. Walking also improves balance, which is particularly important for older people, who are at risk of falls. In cities, walking short distances instead of driving Ingliz tili — multilevel mock-testlar | 36 reduces traffic and air pollution. Some companies now encourage 'walking meetings', in which colleagues discuss ideas while walking outdoors; participants often say they feel more creative. The main obstacle is the design of many modern cities, where wide roads, few pavements and long distances discourage people from walking. 30. Walking needs no equipment, fees or special ______.

Namunaviy javob:✔ Hi Bekzod, Bad news — the sports centre is cancelling all free activities for teenagers because of budget cuts! I'm really upset; football training was the best part of my week. Maybe we could talk to the other players and see if we can do something together? See you, Jamshid Task 1.2 1.2. Write a letter to the manager of the sports centre. Explain why these activities are important and suggest how they could continue. Write about 120–150 words. Namunaviy javob: ✔ Dear Manager, I am writing to express my concern about your decision to stop free activities for teenagers at the sports centre. These activities are extremely important for young people in our neighbourhood. They keep teenagers healthy and active, help them make friends and, most importantly, give them a safe place to spend their free time instead of staying at home with their phones or on the streets. I understand that budget cuts are difficult, but I would like to suggest some alternatives. The centre could ask local businesses to sponsor the programme in exchange for advertising. Alternatively, a small monthly fee could be introduced, with free places for families who cannot afford it. Older students could also volunteer as assistant coaches. I hope you will consider these ideas. Yours faithfully, Jamshid Toshmatov Task 2 2. Nowadays many teenagers spend several hours a day on social media. Is this a positive or negative development? Give reasons and examples. Write about 180–200 words. Namunaviy javob: ✔ Social media has become an essential part of teenagers' lives, and many of them spend several hours a day scrolling through different platforms. In my opinion, this trend has some advantages, but overall its effects are more negative than positive. On the positive side, social media allows young people to stay in touch with friends, share their creativity and find information quickly. Some teenagers use it to learn languages, follow educational channels or even start small online businesses. However, spending too much time online causes serious problems. Firstly, it reduces the time available for studying, sports and face-to-face communication. Secondly, constantly comparing oneself with the 'perfect' lives shown online can lower self-esteem and lead to anxiety. Finally, many teenagers sleep less because they use their phones late at night, which affects their concentration at school. Ingliz tili — multilevel mock-testlar | 38 To sum up, social media itself is not harmful, but excessive use is. Parents and schools should teach teenagers to manage their screen time and use these platforms in a more responsible and productive way.

AUDIO MATNI (transkript — ustoz yoki sherigingiz ovoz chiqarib o'qiydi) In this lecture I'd like to introduce the great scholar Abu Rayhan al-Biruni, who was born in 973 in Kath, in the region of Khorezm. Al-Biruni wrote around one hundred and forty-six works on subjects ranging from astronomy and mathematics to geography, medicine and history. One of his most remarkable achievements was his calculation of the Earth's radius. He used a mountain near the Indus valley and measured the angle to the horizon, obtaining a result that was surprisingly close to the modern value. He also spent many years in India and wrote a detailed book about Indian culture, religion and science, which is still valued by historians today. Unlike many writers of his time, al-Biruni insisted on observation and experiment rather than simply repeating earlier authorities. For this reason, many modern scientists regard him as one of the founders of the scientific method. In 1973, UNESCO celebrated the thousandth anniversary of his birth. 30.

The Science of Habits Why is it so easy to check our phones but so difficult to go to the gym? According to psychologists, the answer lies in how habits are formed. A habit, they explain, is a behaviour that has been repeated so often in the same situation that it becomes automatic. Researchers describe habits as a loop with three parts: a cue, a routine and a reward. The cue triggers the behaviour, the routine is the behaviour itself, and the reward is the pleasant feeling that makes the brain want to repeat it. A well-known study at University College London found that it takes, on average, sixty-six days for a new behaviour to become automatic, although the time varied enormously between participants — from eighteen to more than two hundred days. Missing a single day, the researchers noted, did not significantly affect the process. So how can we build good habits? Experts suggest starting with very small actions — for example, doing two push-ups rather than a full workout — and linking the new behaviour to an existing one, such as reading a page of a book after breakfast. Making the habit easy and visible also helps: putting running shoes next to the door is a simple reminder. Breaking bad habits works the opposite way. If the cue is removed or the behaviour is made more Ingliz tili — multilevel mock-testlar | 47 difficult — for instance, by keeping the phone in another room at night — the habit gradually weakens. 21.

A) Most people never form new habits. B) Every habit takes exactly 66 days. C) Missing a day ruins the process. D) Habit formation time varies greatly. Javob: D ✔ 23. Why do experts recommend starting with small actions? A) They give bigger rewards. B) They are more fun. C) They take less than a week. D) They are easier to make automatic. Javob: D ✔ 24. How can a bad habit be weakened? A) By doing it more often B) By rewarding it C) By ignoring it completely D) By removing the cue or making it harder Javob: D ✔ Questions 25–29.

Libraries in the Digital Age With so much information available online, some people have questioned whether public libraries are still needed. Yet in many countries libraries are reinventing themselves. Modern libraries offer free internet access, which is essential for people who cannot afford it at home, and they run courses in digital skills for older adults. Many have become community centres, hosting language clubs, homework help for children and exhibitions by local artists. Some even lend unusual items such as musical instruments, Ingliz tili — multilevel mock-testlar | 48 sports equipment and tools.

Write about 120–150 words. Namunaviy javob: ✔ Dear Members of the Town Council, I am writing to express my strong opposition to the plan to cut down the old trees in the central park in order to build a car park. These trees are an important part of our town's history and natural environment. They provide shade in the hot summer months, clean the air and are home to many birds. The park is also one of the few green spaces where families and elderly people can relax. I understand that parking in the town centre is a serious problem. However, I believe there are better solutions. The council could build a multi-storey car park on the empty land next to the bus station, or improve public transport so that fewer people need to drive into the centre. I hope you will reconsider your decision. Yours faithfully, Malika Ergasheva Task 2 2. Some people think that children should start learning a foreign language at primary school. Others believe it is better to begin at secondary school. Discuss both views and give your opinion. Write about 180–200 words. Namunaviy javob: ✔ The question of when children should begin learning a foreign language is widely debated by parents and educators. Supporters of an early start argue that young children learn languages naturally and with less anxiety. Their pronunciation is often better, and they are not afraid of making mistakes. Moreover, starting early gives them more years of practice, which can lead to a higher level by the end of school. On the other hand, some people believe that it is better to begin at secondary school. They point out that primary school children first need to develop strong skills in their native language. Older learners also understand grammar rules more easily and can study more efficiently, so they can catch up quickly. In my opinion, the benefits of an early start are greater, provided that lessons are interactive and enjoyable, with songs, games and stories rather than grammar exercises.

AUDIO MATNI (transkript — ustoz yoki sherigingiz ovoz chiqarib o'qiydi) Today we're going to look at the history of the Great Silk Road's most famous product: silk itself. According to Chinese legend, silk was discovered around 2700 BC by the Empress Leizu, when a silkworm cocoon fell into her cup of hot tea and began to unravel. For about three thousand years, the Chinese kept the secret of silk production, and anyone who tried to export silkworms could face the death penalty. Silk was so valuable that it was sometimes used as currency, and in Rome it was considered a luxury worn only by the very rich. The secret eventually spread west. One famous story says that in the sixth century two monks smuggled silkworm eggs to the Byzantine Empire hidden inside hollow walking sticks. In Central Asia, the Fergana Valley became an important centre of silk production, and the town of Margilan is still famous today for its hand-woven atlas and adras fabrics. Producing silk is labour- intensive: thousands of cocoons are needed to make a single silk dress. 30. According to legend, silk was discovered by the Empress ______. Javob: Leizu ✔ 31.

Paragraph 16 After graduating, he was offered a well-paid job in advertising. He accepted it at first, but after two years Ingliz tili — multilevel mock-testlar | 59 he resigned to devote himself entirely to painting, even though it meant living on very little money. Paragraph 17 During this period he became fascinated by Persian miniatures, especially the work of Kamoliddin Behzod. He studied ancient manuscripts in museums and learned traditional techniques for preparing paints. Paragraph 18 Gradually he developed his own approach, combining the delicate details of miniature painting with bright modern colours and large canvases. Critics called it 'neo-miniature'. Paragraph 19 In 2015 his paintings were exhibited in Paris and London, and several were bought by major museums. Newspapers described him as one of the most original artists of Central Asia.

Why Do We Forget? Most of us have had the experience of walking into a room and forgetting why we went there, or failing to remember the name of someone we met only yesterday. Forgetting can be frustrating, but scientists increasingly believe that it is not simply a failure of memory. In many cases, forgetting is a useful process that helps the brain work efficiently. In the nineteenth century, the German psychologist Hermann Ebbinghaus carried out experiments on himself, memorising lists of nonsense syllables and testing how many he could recall after different periods of time. He discovered that we forget most quickly in the first hours after learning: after one day, he had forgotten more than half of what he had learned. This pattern became known as the 'forgetting curve'. Ebbinghaus also discovered how to slow down forgetting. If information is reviewed several times, with increasing intervals between reviews, it stays in memory much longer. This technique, now called 'spaced repetition', is used by many language-learning apps. Modern neuroscientists add that the brain actively removes information it considers unimportant. Without this 'clean-up', our memories would be overloaded with useless details, making it harder to find what really matters. Sleep appears to play a key role in deciding what to keep and what to delete. So, the Ingliz tili — multilevel mock-testlar | 60 next time you forget something small, remember: your brain may simply be doing its job. 21. What is the writer's main point in the first paragraph?

What is 'spaced repetition'? A) Reviewing at increasing intervals B) Learning in a quiet space C) Repeating information aloud D) Studying all night before an exam Javob: A ✔ 24. According to neuroscientists, why does the brain remove information? A) Because people do not use apps B) To make room for important memories C) Because of lack of sleep D) Because of stress Javob: B ✔ Questions 25–29.

Plastic-Free Shopping Every year, millions of tonnes of plastic waste end up in the world's oceans, much of it from single-use packaging. In response, a new type of shop is appearing in many cities: the 'zero-waste' store. In these shops, products such as rice, pasta, nuts, oil and even shampoo are sold without packaging. Customers bring their own jars and bags, which are weighed when empty and then filled with as much as they need. This not only reduces plastic but also cuts food waste, because people buy only the exact amount they Ingliz tili — multilevel mock-testlar | 61 want. Critics point out that zero-waste shops are often more expensive and less convenient than supermarkets. Nevertheless, their popularity is growing, particularly among young people concerned about the environment. 30. Much plastic waste comes from single-use ______. Javob: packaging✔ 31.

We only have one day and not much money, so I need some good ideas. I was thinking of a picnic in the mountains or a visit to Samarkand. What do you think? Text me back! Durdona Task 1.2 1.2. Write a letter to your school director describing your plan for the trip and asking for permission. Write about 120–150 words. Namunaviy javob: ✔ Dear Director, I am writing on behalf of class 11B to ask for permission to organise our end-of-year trip on 25 May. We would like to visit Samarkand by high-speed train. The train leaves Tashkent at 8 a.m. and returns the same evening, so the trip would take only one day. In Samarkand we plan to visit the Registan, the Gur- Emir mausoleum and Ulugh Beg's observatory, which are directly connected to our history lessons. The total cost per student, including train tickets, entrance fees and lunch, would be about 350,000 som, which our parents have agreed to pay. Two teachers and three parents have also agreed to accompany the group to ensure the students' safety. We would be very grateful if you could approve our plan. Yours faithfully, Durdona Alieva, class representative Task 2 2. Some people say that the most important qualities for success are hard work and determination. Others believe that luck and connections play a bigger role. Discuss both views and give your opinion. Write about 180–200 words. Namunaviy javob: ✔ Success is something almost everyone wants, but people disagree about what leads to it. Some believe that hard work and determination are the key, while others think that luck and personal connections matter more. Those who emphasise hard work point out that most successful people have spent years developing their skills. Athletes train every day, scientists conduct countless experiments, and entrepreneurs often fail several times before they succeed. Determination helps people continue despite difficulties. On the other hand, it is true that luck and connections can make a big difference. Being in the right place at the right time, or knowing someone who can offer an opportunity, can open doors that hard work alone cannot. Moreover, people born into wealthy families often have better access to education and networks. In my view, both factors play a role, but hard work is more important because it is the one factor we can control. Luck may create an opportunity, but only a well-prepared and determined person can take advantage of it. In conclusion, connections and luck can help, but lasting success is built on effort and persistence.

AUDIO MATNI (transkript — ustoz yoki sherigingiz ovoz chiqarib o'qiydi) Today I want to talk about the camel — an animal that made long-distance trade across Central Asian deserts possible. There are two main types: the dromedary, which has one hump, and the Bactrian camel, which has two and is native to the cold deserts of Central Asia. Contrary to popular belief, a camel's hump does not contain water. It stores fat, which the animal can use for energy when food is scarce. Camels can survive without drinking for up to two weeks in cool weather, and when they finally find water, they can drink more than one hundred litres in about ten minutes. Their thick eyelashes and ability to close their nostrils protect them from sandstorms. A caravan of camels could travel around forty kilometres a day while carrying heavy loads. Today Bactrian camels are still used in some parts of Mongolia and Kazakhstan, but wild Bactrian camels are critically endangered, with fewer than a thousand remaining. 30.

Inside the Brain of a Teenager Parents and teachers often complain that teenagers take unnecessary risks, sleep late and react emotionally to small problems. For a long time, these behaviours were explained simply as 'bad attitude'. However, research using brain scans has shown that the teenage brain is still under construction. The prefrontal cortex — the area responsible for planning, judging risks and controlling impulses — is one of the last parts of the brain to mature, often not until the mid-twenties. Meanwhile, the areas linked to emotions and rewards are highly active during adolescence. This imbalance helps explain why teenagers are particularly attracted to exciting experiences and are strongly influenced by their friends. The teenage body clock also changes. During puberty, the hormone melatonin, which makes us sleepy, is released later in the evening. As a result, many teenagers genuinely cannot fall asleep before eleven o'clock, yet they have to get up early for school. Chronic lack of sleep can affect mood, memory and academic performance. Scientists stress, however, that the teenage brain is not 'broken'. Its flexibility makes adolescence an excellent time for learning new skills, languages and music. The desire for new experiences, if guided properly, can lead to creativity and independence. Ingliz tili — multilevel mock-testlar | 72 21. What has research using brain scans shown?

The Rise of Electric Scooters Electric scooters have become a common sight in many cities, including Tashkent. Rented through smartphone apps, they offer a quick and cheap way to travel short distances and can reduce the number of cars on the road. Supporters say they are ideal for the 'last mile' — the distance between a metro station and one's home or office. However, scooters have also caused problems. Riders sometimes travel too fast on pavements, putting pedestrians at risk, and scooters left lying around can block walkways. Several cities have introduced rules such as speed limits, compulsory helmets and special parking zones. Experts believe that, with proper regulation, scooters can become a useful part of urban transport. Ingliz tili — multilevel mock-testlar | 73 30. Scooters are rented through smartphone ______.

Some students are excited, but many parents are worried. Task 1.1 1.1. Write a message to your friend from another school telling him/her about the news and your opinion. Write about 50 words. Namunaviy javob:✔ Hi Akmal, Guess what — a fast-food restaurant is opening right next to our school! Most students are happy, but our parents aren't. Personally, I think it's fine to eat there sometimes, but not every day. It's better than nothing, though, because our canteen is terrible! What do you think? Oybek Task 1.2 1.2. Write a letter to the editor of your local newspaper giving your opinion about the new restaurant. Write about 120–150 words. Namunaviy javob: ✔ Dear Editor, I am writing in response to your recent article about the fast-food restaurant that will open next to School No. 45. As a student of this school, I understand both sides of the argument. On the one hand, the restaurant will create jobs and give students a place to meet after lessons. On the other hand, parents are right to worry that regular fast food could lead to unhealthy eating habits and weight problems. In my opinion, the best solution is cooperation. The restaurant could offer a healthier menu for students, including salads, fruit and water instead of sugary drinks. At the same time, the school should improve its canteen so that students have a healthy and affordable alternative. I believe that with these measures everyone would benefit. Yours faithfully, Oybek Nurmatov Task 2 2. In some countries, the number of people who live alone is increasing. Why is this happening, and is it a positive or negative development? Write about 180–200 words. Namunaviy javob: ✔ In many countries, especially in large cities, more and more people are choosing to live alone. There are several reasons for this trend, and its effects are both positive and negative. One important reason is economic independence. Young professionals earn enough to rent their own flats, and many prefer privacy to sharing. In addition, people are marrying later, so they spend more years living independently. Another factor is the ageing population: many elderly people live alone after losing a partner. Living alone has some advantages. It allows people to organise their lives as they wish, develop independence and focus on their careers or hobbies. However, there are also serious disadvantages. People who live alone, particularly the elderly, may suffer from loneliness, which can affect both mental and physical health. Housing costs also increase when each person needs a separate home. Ingliz tili — multilevel mock-testlar | 75 In my opinion, this trend is neither fully positive nor fully negative. Living alone can be a valuable stage of life, but communities should make sure that people who live alone remain socially connected, for example through clubs, volunteering and regular contact with family. In conclusion, the trend reflects modern lifestyles, but its negative effects must not be ignored. SPEAKING (gapirish) Part 1.1 Answer the questions about yourself (about 30 seconds each). 1.

AUDIO MATNI (transkript — ustoz yoki sherigingiz ovoz chiqarib o'qiydi) Today I'll talk about the history of the Registan in Samarkand. The name 'Registan' means 'sandy place', because the area was originally covered with sand from a nearby river. In the time of Amir Temur it was a busy market square. The square as we see it today is formed by three madrasahs. The oldest is the Ulugh Beg Madrasah, completed in 1420, where astronomy and mathematics were taught alongside religion. Opposite it stands the Sher-Dor Madrasah, built in the seventeenth century. Its portal is famous for its images of tigers chasing deer, with human faces inside the sun — an unusual decoration in Islamic architecture. Between them is the Tilla-Kari Madrasah, whose name means 'gilded', because the interior of its mosque is decorated with gold. Over the centuries, earthquakes damaged the buildings, and some minarets began to lean. Restoration work in the twentieth century straightened and repaired them. In 2001, Samarkand, including the Registan, was added to the UNESCO World Heritage List. 30. 'Registan' means '______ place'. Javob: sandy ✔ 31. In Temur's time the area was a busy ______ square.

Water: Central Asia's Most Precious Resource In Central Asia, water has always determined where people could live. Ancient cities grew up along rivers and oases, and complex irrigation systems allowed farmers to grow crops in the desert. Today, the region's two great rivers, the Amu Darya and the Syr Darya, still provide most of the water used for agriculture, industry and households. However, the pressure on these resources is increasing. The population of the region has grown rapidly, and climate change is causing glaciers in the Pamir and Tian Shan mountains to melt faster. In the short term, this may even increase river flow, but scientists warn that in the long term, as the glaciers shrink, less water will be available during the hot summer months. Agriculture uses around ninety per cent of the region's water, and much of it is lost through old, open canals, where water evaporates or leaks into the ground. In recent years, Uzbekistan has started to promote water-saving technologies such as drip irrigation, which delivers water directly to plant roots. Farmers who install these systems can receive financial support from the state. Experts agree that cooperation between the countries of the region is essential, since the rivers cross national borders. Joint management of reservoirs and data sharing can help prevent conflicts and ensure that future generations have enough water. Ingliz tili — multilevel mock-testlar | 84 21.

The Power of Reading Aloud Reading aloud to children is one of the simplest and most effective ways to support their development. Research shows that children who are read to regularly develop larger vocabularies and better listening skills, and they often learn to read more easily themselves. Reading aloud also strengthens the emotional bond between parents and children. Experts recommend starting as early as possible — even babies benefit from hearing the rhythm of language. Importantly, reading aloud should not stop once children can read independently. Older children can enjoy more complex stories when they are read to, and discussing the story together develops critical thinking. Ingliz tili — multilevel mock-testlar | 85 30.

You have been asked to collect ideas. Task 1.1 1.1. Write a note to your classmate asking him/her to join the project and suggest one idea. Write about 50 words. Namunaviy javob:✔ Hi Sanjar, Our teacher wants us to start an English school newspaper, and I'm collecting ideas. Would you like to join? You're great at photography, so maybe you could be our photo editor! I'm also thinking of a section with interviews with teachers. Let me know! Nargiza Task 1.2 1.2. Write a proposal to your school director explaining the idea of the newspaper and what support you need. Write about 120–150 words. Namunaviy javob: ✔ Dear Director, I am writing to propose the creation of an English-language school newspaper, to be produced by students of grades 9–11. The newspaper would be published once a month in both printed and online versions. It would include school news, interviews with teachers and graduates, student stories and poems, and a section on study tips. The project would give students a real reason to use English, develop their writing and teamwork skills, and strengthen school spirit. To make this possible, we would need a small room where the editorial team could meet once a week, access to a computer and printer, and a modest budget for printing about 200 copies per issue. Our English teacher has kindly agreed to supervise the project. Thank you for considering our proposal. Yours faithfully, Nargiza Yusupova Task 2 2. Some people think that museums and historical sites should be free for everyone. Others argue that visitors should pay. Discuss both views and give your opinion. Write about 180–200 words. Namunaviy javob: ✔ Museums and historical sites preserve a nation's cultural heritage, so the question of whether entry should be free is an important one. People who support free entry argue that culture should be accessible to everyone, regardless of income. Free museums encourage families, students and low-income visitors to learn about history and art. In countries such as the United Kingdom, where many national museums are free, visitor numbers increased significantly after fees were removed. On the other hand, maintaining museums and ancient buildings is extremely expensive. Restoration, security and qualified staff all require funding, and ticket income helps to cover these costs. Moreover, charging fees for foreign tourists can provide important revenue without burdening local taxpayers. In my opinion, a balanced approach is best. Entry should be free or very cheap for children, students and local residents, while foreign tourists could pay a reasonable fee. Museums could also offer free days once a month. Ingliz tili — multilevel mock-testlar | 87 In conclusion, cultural heritage should be accessible to all, but some payment, especially from tourists, is necessary to protect it for future generations.

AUDIO MATNI (transkript — ustoz yoki sherigingiz ovoz chiqarib o'qiydi) In today's lecture I'll look at Avicenna, or Ibn Sina, one of the most influential thinkers in history. He was born in 980 in Afshona, a village near Bukhara. As a child he showed extraordinary ability: by the age of ten he had memorised the Quran, and by sixteen he was already treating patients. When he was about eighteen, he cured the ruler of Bukhara, and as a reward he was allowed to use the royal library, which contained rare books on every subject. Ibn Sina wrote more than four hundred works, of which around two hundred and forty have survived. His most famous book, 'The Canon of Medicine', is an encyclopaedia in five volumes. It described the spread of infectious diseases, the importance of quarantine and the testing of new medicines. Translated into Latin in the twelfth century, the Canon was used as a textbook in European universities for about six hundred years. Ibn Sina died in 1037 in Hamadan, in present-day Iran. 30.

Paragraph 16 There are no traditional lessons. Instead, pupils work on projects — building a model town, running a Ingliz tili — multilevel mock-testlar | 95 small garden or writing a newspaper — and learn maths, science and language through these tasks. Paragraph 17 The day begins with a meeting in which children discuss their plans. After two hours of project work there is a long break outdoors, followed by individual study and reading in the afternoon. Paragraph 18 Teachers believe that free play is not a waste of time. Through games, younger children develop creativity, cooperation and problem-solving skills. Paragraph 19 Some educators argue that the approach may leave gaps in basic knowledge and that pupils might struggle when they move to traditional schools.

The Secret Life of Trees For centuries, people saw forests simply as collections of individual trees competing for light and water. However, recent research suggests that trees are far more social than we imagined. Scientists have discovered that many trees are connected underground by vast networks of fungi, which grow around their roots. Through these networks — sometimes called the 'wood wide web' — trees can exchange water, sugar and nutrients. The Canadian forest ecologist Suzanne Simard showed in the 1990s that large, old 'mother trees' can send nutrients to young seedlings growing in their shade, helping them survive. When a tree is attacked by insects, it may also send chemical signals through the network, warning neighbouring trees, which then produce substances to protect themselves. The fungi benefit too: in exchange for the sugar they receive from the trees, they help roots absorb water and minerals from the soil. This partnership has existed for hundreds of millions of years. Not all scientists agree with the more dramatic interpretations of this research. Some argue that terms like 'communication' and 'mother trees' make trees sound too human, and that more evidence is needed. Nevertheless, the discoveries have changed how many foresters work: rather than cutting down all the old trees in an area, they now try to leave some standing to support the next generation.

Learning Through Mistakes Many students are afraid of making mistakes, believing that errors show a lack of ability. However, research in education suggests the opposite: mistakes are a natural and valuable part of learning. When students make an error and then correct it, the brain forms stronger connections than when they simply get the right answer immediately. Teachers who create a classroom atmosphere where mistakes are accepted encourage students to take risks and try difficult tasks. Psychologist Carol Dweck calls this a 'growth mindset' — the belief that abilities can be developed through effort. Students with a growth mindset are more likely to persist when they face difficulties. Ingliz tili — multilevel mock-testlar | 97 30. Many students believe errors show a lack of ______.

When the parcel was delivered on 8 October, I discovered that the screen of the phone was cracked. In addition, the charger, which is listed as part of the package on your website, was missing. The box did not appear damaged, so I believe the problem occurred before shipping. I am very disappointed, as I paid the full price and expected the product to arrive in perfect condition. I would therefore like you to replace the phone with a new one, including the charger, as soon as possible. If this is not possible, I would ask for a full refund. I have attached photographs of the damage. I look forward to your prompt reply. Yours faithfully, Sherzod Aliev Task 2 2. Some people believe that it is better to work for a large international company, while others prefer to work for a small local business. Discuss both options and give your opinion. Write about 180–200 words. Namunaviy javob: ✔ When choosing a career, many young people must decide between working for a large international company and a small local business. Each option has its own advantages. Large international companies usually offer higher salaries, structured training programmes and opportunities to travel or work abroad. Employees can gain experience with modern technologies and build an impressive CV. In addition, such companies often provide greater job security and benefits such as health insurance. On the other hand, small local businesses have their own attractions. Employees often have more varied responsibilities and can see the direct results of their work. Relationships with colleagues and managers tend to be closer, and there may be more flexibility in working hours. Moreover, talented employees can be promoted quickly because there is less competition. Ingliz tili — multilevel mock-testlar | 99 In my opinion, the best choice depends on the stage of a person's career. Young graduates may benefit from the training and experience of a large company, while later in their careers they might prefer the independence and personal atmosphere of a small business, or even start their own. In conclusion, both options can lead to a successful career if they match the individual's goals. SPEAKING (gapirish) Part 1.1 Answer the questions about yourself (about 30 seconds each). 1.

AUDIO MATNI (transkript — ustoz yoki sherigingiz ovoz chiqarib o'qiydi) Today I'm going to talk about sleep and its importance for students. Adults generally need seven to nine hours of sleep a night, but surveys show that many university students sleep less than six. During sleep the brain goes through cycles of about ninety minutes, including deep sleep and REM sleep, the stage in which most dreaming occurs. Deep sleep helps the body recover physically, while REM sleep appears to be important for emotional balance and for connecting new information with what we already know. Studies have shown that students who stay up all night before an exam usually perform worse than those who sleep normally, because tired brains have difficulty retrieving information. Lack of sleep also weakens the immune system, making people more likely to catch infections. My advice is simple: keep a regular schedule, avoid caffeine after about three in the afternoon, and put your phone away at least an hour before bed. 30.

The Return of Board Games In an age of smartphones and online gaming, one might expect traditional board games to have disappeared. Surprisingly, the opposite has happened. Over the past decade, sales of board games have grown steadily in many countries, and board-game cafés — where customers pay a small fee to play from a library of hundreds of games — have opened in cities from Seoul to Tashkent. Why are people returning to cardboard and dice? One explanation is the desire for face-to-face interaction. After spending all day in front of screens, many people want an activity that brings friends and family together around a table. Board games require players to talk, negotiate, laugh and sometimes argue, which creates shared memories. Modern board games are also very different from the classics many of us grew up with. Designers now create complex strategy games, cooperative games in which players work together against the game, and storytelling games that change each time they are played. Crowdfunding platforms have allowed small independent designers to publish games that large companies might have rejected. Educators have noticed the trend too. Teachers use board games to develop mathematics, logic and communication skills, and some therapists use them to help children practise patience and cope with losing. As one café owner put it, 'People don't just come for the games. They come for each other.' Ingliz tili — multilevel mock-testlar | 108 21. What has happened to board games over the past decade?

For a long time, some educators believed that learning two languages at once confused young children. Modern research, however, shows that bilingual children reach language milestones at a similar age to monolingual children. In fact, constantly switching between languages seems to train the brain's ability to focus and ignore distractions. Some studies have found that bilingual adults perform better on tasks requiring attention control. Researchers are careful to add that these advantages are modest and vary between individuals, but they agree that speaking more than one language is certainly not harmful.

My new neighbour plays loud music until two in the morning every night, and I can't sleep or study for my exams. I don't want to start an argument, but I can't continue like this. Should I talk to him or go straight to the building manager? Zarina Task 1.2 1.2. Write a polite letter to your neighbour explaining the problem and suggesting a solution. Write about 120–150 words. Namunaviy javob: ✔ Dear neighbour, I hope you are settling into your new flat. My name is Zarina, and I live in flat 24, directly above you. I am writing to ask for your help with a small problem. Over the past two weeks, music from your flat has often been quite loud late at night, sometimes until two in the morning. Unfortunately, the walls in our building are thin, and I am finding it difficult to sleep. I am also preparing for important university exams and need to get up early. I completely understand that you want to enjoy your music. Would it be possible to turn the volume down after eleven o'clock on weekdays, or perhaps use headphones late at night? I would really appreciate it. Please feel free to knock on my door if you would like to discuss this. Best wishes, Zarina Task 2 2. Some people think that governments should spend more money on public parks and sports facilities, while others believe the money should go to hospitals. Discuss both views and give your opinion. Write about 180–200 words. Namunaviy javob: ✔ Governments have limited budgets, so deciding how to spend public money is always difficult. One common debate is whether funds should be used for parks and sports facilities or for hospitals. Those who support investment in parks and sports argue that prevention is better than cure. When people have access to green spaces, sports grounds and swimming pools, they exercise more, which reduces obesity, heart disease and stress. In the long term, this lowers the pressure on the healthcare system and saves money. On the other hand, many people believe hospitals should be the top priority. Sick people need modern equipment, medicines and well-trained doctors immediately, and lives may depend on these resources. In many regions, hospitals are overcrowded and lack basic facilities. In my opinion, both areas are important, and they should not be seen as competitors. Governments must first ensure that hospitals provide quality care for everyone. However, a reasonable share of the budget should also go to parks and sports facilities, because a healthy lifestyle reduces future medical costs. Ingliz tili — multilevel mock-testlar | 111 In conclusion, a balanced approach that combines treatment and prevention is the most effective way to improve public health.

AUDIO MATNI (transkript — ustoz yoki sherigingiz ovoz chiqarib o'qiydi) My topic today is the history of the Uzbek national dish, plov. Plov, or pilaf, is cooked in a large cast-iron pot called a kazan. Legend says that the dish was first prepared for the army of Alexander the Great, but historians believe its origins are much older and lie in Persia and Central Asia. The basic ingredients are rice, carrots, onions, meat — usually lamb or beef — and oil. In Uzbekistan, the carrots are cut by hand into long thin strips rather than grated. There are dozens of regional varieties: Samarkand plov is cooked in layers that are not mixed, while in Fergana the rice is often mixed with the other ingredients. Traditionally plov is prepared by men, especially for weddings and celebrations, when it can be cooked for hundreds or even thousands of guests. In 2016, the culture and tradition of plov was inscribed on UNESCO's list of the Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity. 30. Plov is cooked in a cast-iron pot called a ______. Javob: kazan ✔ 31.

If so, you are not alone. Retailers use a range of psychological techniques to encourage customers to spend more, and most of us are unaware of them. One common strategy concerns the layout of the store. Essential products such as bread and milk are usually placed at the back of supermarkets, so customers must walk past many other products to reach them. Items placed at eye level sell better than those on the bottom shelves, which is why brands pay extra for the best positions. Prices themselves are also carefully designed. A price of 9,990 som feels significantly lower than 10,000, even though the difference is tiny. Offers such as 'buy two, get one free' encourage people to buy more than they need, and limited-time discounts create a sense of urgency. The atmosphere matters too. Studies have shown that slow background music makes shoppers walk more slowly and spend more, while the smell of fresh bread can make people hungry and more likely to buy food. Consumer experts advise making a shopping list and sticking to it, never shopping when hungry, and asking yourself whether you would buy a product if it were not on sale. Awareness, they say, is the best Ingliz tili — multilevel mock-testlar | 120 protection. 21. Why are bread and milk often at the back of supermarkets? A) They need to be kept cold.

Learning from Nature: Biomimicry Engineers and designers are increasingly looking to nature for solutions to human problems, an approach known as biomimicry. One famous example is Velcro, invented in the 1940s by a Swiss engineer who noticed how burrs from plants stuck to his dog's fur. Japan's high-speed trains were redesigned with a nose shaped like a kingfisher's beak, which reduced noise when entering tunnels and also saved energy. Architects have designed buildings that stay cool without air conditioning by copying the ventilation Ingliz tili — multilevel mock-testlar | 121 systems of termite mounds. Supporters of biomimicry argue that nature has had millions of years to test and improve its designs, so it is a valuable source of sustainable ideas. 30.

The club wants to organise a charity event to raise money for a local children's hospital. Task 1.1 1.1. Write a message to a club member inviting him/her to a planning meeting. Write about 50 words. Namunaviy javob:✔ Hi Jahongir, We're planning a charity event to raise money for the children's hospital, and we need your ideas! Can you come to a meeting on Friday at 4 p.m. in room 205? Bring any suggestions — maybe a concert or a sports day? See you there! Shahnoza Task 1.2 1.2. Write a letter to a local business asking for sponsorship of the event. Write about 120–150 words. Namunaviy javob: ✔ Dear Mr Rakhimov, I am writing on behalf of the Student Volunteers Club of Tashkent State University. We are organising a charity concert on 20 December to raise money for the City Children's Hospital, which urgently needs new medical equipment. The event will take place in the university hall and is expected to attract around 500 guests, including students, parents and local media. Talented students will perform music and dance, and all ticket income will go directly to the hospital. We would be very grateful if your company could support the event, either financially or by providing prizes for a charity raffle. In return, we would be happy to display your company logo on our posters, tickets and social media pages and to thank you publicly during the concert. Thank you for considering our request. I look forward to hearing from you. Yours sincerely, Shahnoza Yuldasheva Task 2 2. Some people believe that technology has made our lives more complicated, while others think it has made life easier. Discuss both views and give your opinion. Write about 180–200 words. Namunaviy javob: ✔ Technology has transformed almost every aspect of modern life, but people disagree about whether it has made our lives easier or more complicated. Those who believe technology simplifies life point to the many tasks it has made faster. We can pay bills, book tickets, study and communicate with people around the world in seconds. Household appliances save hours of work, and medical technology has extended life expectancy. On the other hand, some argue that technology has created new complications. People are expected to be available at all times, which increases stress and blurs the line between work and free time. We must constantly update devices, remember dozens of passwords and protect ourselves from online fraud. In addition, the amount of information available can be overwhelming. In my opinion, technology itself makes life easier, but the way we use it can make life more complicated. If we use digital tools consciously — for example, by limiting notifications and setting boundaries for work — we can enjoy their benefits without being controlled by them. Ingliz tili — multilevel mock-testlar | 123 In conclusion, technology is a powerful tool, and whether it simplifies or complicates our lives depends largely on us.

According to legend, the city grew up around a well dug by Shem, the son of Noah, and the well still exists today. Historically, Khiva was an important stop for caravans before they crossed the desert to Persia. Later it became the capital of the Khanate of Khiva. The old inner city, called Itchan Kala, is surrounded by brick walls about ten metres high and contains more than fifty historic monuments and around two hundred and fifty old houses. One of its most famous landmarks is the Kalta Minor minaret, which is covered in blue and green tiles. It was meant to be the tallest minaret in the Islamic world, but construction stopped when the khan died in 1855, so it remained unfinished — 'kalta' means 'short'. In 1990, Itchan Kala became the first site in Uzbekistan to be added to the UNESCO World Heritage List. 30. Legend says the city grew up around a ______. Javob: well ✔ 31.

Should We Work Four Days a Week? For more than a century, the five-day working week has been the standard in most countries. But in recent years, companies and governments around the world have experimented with a four-day week, without reducing employees' pay. The results have surprised many people. In one of the largest trials, carried out in the United Kingdom in 2022, around sixty companies reduced working time by twenty per cent for six months. At the end of the trial, the vast majority decided to continue with the new schedule. Employees reported less stress and better sleep, and the number of sick days fell. Importantly, most companies said that productivity remained the same or even improved. Supporters argue that people work more efficiently when they know they have less time, and that a longer weekend allows them to rest, spend time with family and pursue hobbies. Some also point out that fewer commuting days reduce traffic and pollution. Critics, however, warn that the model does not suit every industry. Hospitals, schools and shops need staff every day, and reducing hours might require hiring more people, which increases costs. Others fear that employees would simply try to fit five days of work into four, leading to longer and more stressful working days. The debate is likely to continue, but one thing is clear: the way we think about work is changing. Ingliz tili — multilevel mock-testlar | 132 21. What was special about the trials?

The Benefits of Learning a Musical Instrument Learning to play a musical instrument is not only enjoyable but also good for the brain. Studies have shown that children who take music lessons often develop better memory and language skills. Playing an instrument requires the coordination of both hands, the eyes and the ears at the same time, which strengthens connections between different areas of the brain. Music practice also teaches patience and discipline, since progress comes slowly and requires daily effort. For adults, learning an instrument can reduce stress and may even help to keep the mind sharp in old age. Experts say it is never too late to start. Ingliz tili — multilevel mock-testlar | 133 30.

The city wants to close our main street to cars and make it a pedestrian zone with cafés and trees! I think it's a brilliant idea — it'll be quieter and safer. Shop owners are worried, though. What do you think? Madina Task 1.2 1.2. Write a letter to the mayor giving your opinion about the plan and making suggestions. Write about 120–150 words. Namunaviy javob: ✔ Dear Mayor, I am writing to express my support for the plan to turn Navoi Street into a pedestrian zone. In my opinion, this project would greatly improve the quality of life in our city. Without cars, the street would become quieter, cleaner and much safer for children and elderly people. New cafés and green areas would create a pleasant place for families to meet, and they would also attract tourists, which could benefit local businesses. However, I understand that some shop owners are worried about deliveries and customers who come by car. I would therefore suggest allowing deliveries in the early morning, building a car park nearby and improving bus connections to the area. Benches, trees and bicycle parking should also be included in the design. I hope the city will consider these suggestions. Yours faithfully, Madina Sobirova Task 2 2. In many countries, people are living longer than ever before. What are the advantages and disadvantages of an ageing population? Write about 180–200 words. Namunaviy javob: ✔ Thanks to better healthcare, nutrition and living conditions, people in many countries are living much longer than in the past. This ageing of the population brings both opportunities and challenges. One advantage is that older people can share their knowledge and experience with younger generations. Many remain active long after retirement, working part-time, volunteering or helping to raise grandchildren, which supports families and communities. In addition, longer lives mean that people have more time to enjoy hobbies, travel and education. However, there are also significant disadvantages. As the proportion of elderly people grows, governments must spend more on pensions and healthcare, while the number of working-age people paying taxes may decrease. This can put pressure on public finances. Furthermore, many older people suffer from loneliness or chronic illnesses and need long-term care. Ingliz tili — multilevel mock-testlar | 135 In my opinion, an ageing population should not be seen only as a problem. Governments can respond by encouraging flexible retirement, investing in preventive healthcare and creating opportunities for older people to stay socially and economically active. In conclusion, although an ageing population creates challenges, with the right policies society can benefit from the experience and contributions of its older citizens.

AUDIO MATNI (transkript — ustoz yoki sherigingiz ovoz chiqarib o'qiydi) Today I'd like to talk about volcanoes. A volcano is an opening in the Earth's crust through which molten rock, called magma, gases and ash escape. Once magma reaches the surface, it is called lava. There are about one thousand three hundred and fifty potentially active volcanoes on land around the world, and many of them are located along the 'Ring of Fire', which surrounds the Pacific Ocean. Volcanic eruptions can be extremely dangerous. In the year 79, the eruption of Mount Vesuvius buried the Roman city of Pompeii under ash, preserving it so well that archaeologists can still see bread in ovens. However, volcanoes are not only destructive. Volcanic soil is very fertile, which is why many farmers live near volcanoes despite the risk. In countries like Iceland, the heat from volcanic activity is used to produce geothermal energy, which provides electricity and heating for homes. Today, scientists use satellites and sensors to monitor volcanoes and give warnings before eruptions. 30. Molten rock inside the Earth is called ______. Javob: magma ✔ 31.

Hotels, offices and even museums have placed beehives on their roofs, often promoting them as a way to 'save the bees'. Yet some ecologists argue that this trend may actually do more harm than good. The problem, they explain, is the difference between honeybees and wild bees. Honeybees are domesticated insects kept for honey, and their populations are not seriously threatened. Wild bees, on the other hand — including hundreds of species of solitary bees and bumblebees — are declining in many regions. When too many honeybee hives are placed in one city, the honeybees compete with wild bees for limited food, since there are only so many flowers available. A study in Paris found that wild bee numbers were lower in areas with a high density of hives. Honeybees can also spread diseases to wild bee populations. For this reason, some scientists recommend limiting the number of hives in cities. What, then, is the best way to help bees? Experts agree that the answer is to increase the amount of food and shelter available. Planting a variety of native flowers that bloom at different times of the year, leaving some areas of grass uncut and reducing pesticide use are all effective measures. Even a small balcony with a few pots of flowering herbs can make a difference. Ingliz tili — multilevel mock-testlar | 144 21. What is the writer's main point? A) Cities have too many flowers.

Laughter: The Best Medicine? The saying 'laughter is the best medicine' may contain more truth than we think. When we laugh, the body releases endorphins, chemicals that create a feeling of well-being and can even reduce pain temporarily. Laughter also lowers levels of stress hormones and improves blood flow, which benefits the heart. Socially, laughing together strengthens relationships and helps groups cooperate. Interestingly, research shows that people laugh up to thirty times more often when they are with others than when they are alone. Some hospitals now invite 'medical clowns' to visit children, helping to reduce their anxiety before operations. Ingliz tili — multilevel mock-testlar | 145 30.

Some people believe that schools should teach practical skills such as cooking, managing money and repairing things. Others think schools should focus on academic subjects. Discuss both views and give your opinion. Write about 180–200 words. Namunaviy javob: ✔ The purpose of school education has long been debated. While some people believe schools should focus on traditional academic subjects, others argue that practical life skills deserve a place in the curriculum. Supporters of academic education claim that subjects such as mathematics, science and languages develop critical thinking and are essential for entering university and finding professional jobs. They believe that practical skills can be learned at home from parents. On the other hand, many young people leave school without knowing how to plan a budget, cook a healthy meal or fix a simple household problem. As a result, they may face difficulties when they start living independently. Teaching financial literacy, for example, could help prevent debt and poor financial decisions in the future. In my opinion, schools should combine both approaches. Academic subjects should remain the core of education, but a few hours a week could be devoted to practical skills, ideally linked to academic knowledge — for example, using mathematics to manage a budget. In conclusion, a balanced curriculum that prepares students both for further study and for everyday life would be the most beneficial.

AUDIO MATNI (transkript — ustoz yoki sherigingiz ovoz chiqarib o'qiydi) Today's lecture is about the Great Wall of China. Contrary to popular belief, the Great Wall is not a single continuous wall but a series of walls built by different dynasties over about two thousand years. The earliest sections were constructed in the seventh century BC, while most of the wall we see today was built during the Ming dynasty, between the fourteenth and seventeenth centuries. A survey published in 2012 measured the total length of all sections at over twenty-one thousand kilometres. The wall was built to protect against invasions from the north, and soldiers used signal fires on watchtowers to send warnings quickly over long distances. Materials varied according to the location: in the desert, builders used rammed earth, while in the mountains they used stone. Another popular myth is that the wall is visible from space with the naked eye; in fact, astronauts have confirmed that it is very difficult to see. The Great Wall became a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 1987. 30. The Great Wall is a series of walls built over about two ______ years. Javob: thousand ✔ 31.

The Rise of the 'Gig Economy' In the past, most people expected to work for one employer for many years, sometimes for their entire career. Today, an increasing number of people earn their living through short-term, flexible jobs arranged through digital platforms — a model known as the 'gig economy'. Taxi drivers who work through apps, couriers delivering food, and freelance designers who find clients online are all part of this trend. For many workers, the gig economy offers attractive freedom. They can choose when and how much to work, which suits students, parents with young children and people who want a second source of income. For companies, it provides a flexible workforce that can grow or shrink according to demand. However, critics point out that this flexibility often comes at a cost. Gig workers are usually classified as independent contractors rather than employees, which means they may not receive paid holidays, sick pay or pension contributions. Their income can be unpredictable, and some platforms control their work through ratings and algorithms that can reduce their earnings without explanation. In response, some countries have introduced new laws to give gig workers basic protections, such as minimum earnings or access to insurance. Experts believe that finding the right balance between flexibility and security will be one of the most important challenges for labour markets in the coming decades.

Why Breakfast Matters Breakfast is often called the most important meal of the day, although scientists continue to debate this claim. What is clear is that a healthy breakfast provides energy after the night and helps maintain concentration, particularly for children at school. Studies have found that pupils who eat breakfast tend to perform better in tests of attention and memory. However, the quality of breakfast matters. Sugary cereals and pastries cause a quick rise in blood sugar followed by tiredness, while foods containing protein and fibre, such as eggs, porridge and fruit, release energy more slowly. Nutritionists also recommend drinking water, since many people wake up slightly dehydrated. Ingliz tili — multilevel mock-testlar | 157 30. Breakfast helps maintain ______, especially for children.

Task 1.1 1.1. Write a message to your classmate telling him/her about the news and what you think. Write about 50 words. Namunaviy javob:✔ Hi Komila, Have you seen the news? Our homework app is going to charge a monthly fee from next month! I'm really disappointed, because I use it every day. Maybe we could find a free alternative together or ask the school to buy a group subscription. What do you think? Asilbek Task 1.2 1.2. Write a letter to the app company explaining how the change will affect students and suggesting alternatives. Write about 120–150 words. Namunaviy javob: ✔ Dear Sir or Madam, I am writing on behalf of the students of School No. 7 regarding your recent announcement that your homework app will introduce a monthly fee. Your app has become an essential learning tool for many of us. It helps us organise assignments, practise for exams and communicate with teachers. However, many students come from large families or families with limited income, and a monthly fee would make the app unaffordable for them. As a result, the students who need support most would lose access to it. I would like to suggest some alternatives. You could keep a free basic version with essential functions and charge only for additional features. Another option would be to offer discounted subscriptions for schools or free access for students from low-income families. I hope you will consider these suggestions. Yours faithfully, Asilbek Mamatov Task 2 2. Many people believe that it is important to protect old buildings, while others think they should be replaced with modern ones. Discuss both views and give your opinion. Write about 180–200 words. Namunaviy javob: ✔ As cities grow and develop, authorities often have to decide whether to preserve old buildings or replace them with modern constructions. Both positions have reasonable arguments. Those who support protecting old buildings argue that they are part of a nation's history and identity. Historic architecture shows how people lived in the past and connects new generations with their roots. In addition, well-preserved historic districts attract tourists, which brings income and jobs. Cities such as Bukhara and Khiva are good examples of how heritage can benefit the economy. On the other hand, some people believe that old buildings should give way to modern ones. Many historic structures are unsafe, expensive to maintain and unsuitable for modern needs. New buildings can provide better housing, energy efficiency and modern facilities for a growing population. In my opinion, buildings of real historical or architectural value must be protected and carefully restored. However, not every old building is significant, and in such cases replacing them with modern, well- Ingliz tili — multilevel mock-testlar | 159 designed structures may be justified. The key is careful planning that combines respect for the past with the needs of the present. In conclusion, cities should find a balance between preservation and development. SPEAKING (gapirish) Part 1.1 Answer the questions about yourself (about 30 seconds each). 1. What did you study at school that you enjoyed? 2. Do you like spending time in nature? 3. What is something you would like to change about your daily routine? Part 1.2 Look at the two pictures (described below). Compare them and answer the questions. Picture 1 Picture 1: A grandmother teaching her granddaughter to embroider. Picture 2 Picture 2: A teenager learning embroidery from a video on a tablet. 4. Compare the two pictures. 5. What can young people learn from older generations? 6. Is it important to preserve traditional crafts? Why? Part 2 You have 1 minute to prepare and up to 2 minutes to speak. CUE CARD Describe a time when you learned something new outside school. • What did you learn? • How did you learn it? • How has it been useful for you? Part 3 Read the statement and the arguments. You have 1 minute to prepare and 2 minutes to speak about both sides, then give your opinion. Exams are the best way to assess students' abilities. FOR AGAINST Objective and equal for everyone. Cause stress and anxiety. Motivate students to study. Measure memory more than real skills. Easy to compare results. Projects show creativity better.

• Har bir qism 0–75 ball shkalasida baholanadi; umumiy natija to'rt qismning o'rtachasi. Darajalar: B1 — 38–50, B2 — 51–64, C1 — 65–75 ball. 38 balldan past bo'lsa, sertifikat berilmaydi.

• Listening uchun audio o'rniga transkript berilgan: ustoz yoki sherigingiz matnni tabiiy tezlikda ikki marta ovoz chiqarib o'qisin, siz esa matnga qaramasdan javob bering. Part 4 da xarita rasmi berilgan.

• Reading Part 1 da variantlar yo'q — so'zni to'g'ri shakl va imloda yozing. Bir nechta to'g'ri javob bo'lsa, ular «/» bilan ko'rsatilgan.

• Writing va Speaking uchun namunaviy javoblar berilgan. Ularni yod olmang — tuzilish, bog'lovchilar va lug'atni o'rganib, o'zingiz yozing va gapiring.

• Har bir mock-testni imtihon sharoitida (vaqt bilan) bajaring, so'ng hujjat oxiridagi javoblar kaliti bilan tekshiring.

• Muhim: bu rasmiy imtihon materiallari emas, rasmiy formatga mos tuzilgan mashq testlari. Format o'zgarishlarini uzbmb.uz da kuzatib boring.
