Question 12 (5 marks)

        Ciao Teresa. Hai visto l’annuncio per il mercato in centro? Pensavo di
        affittare una bancarella per vendere la marmellata ed il miele di mia nonna.
        Ti ricordi che lei fa questi prodotti alla sua fattoria? Ne ha sempre troppi e
        non sa mai dove metterli. Lei me li darebbe volentieri e così noi faremmo
        un po’di soldi e ci divertiremo un sacco.
        Fammi sapere se vuoi aiutare.
        Maurizio

(a)   What has prompted Maurizio’s idea?                                                                                                1

Question 13 (6 marks)

                           Se hai bisogno di consiglio consulta il Signor Avviso

          Ho appena finito il liceo. Non mi è mai piaciuta la scuola e non andavo
          bene. Adesso voglio trovare un impiego sicuro dove posso guadagnare i
          soldi e non rischiare di essere disoccupato nel futuro. Il tipo di lavoro non
          è importante.
          Mi può dare un consiglio?
          Luca Malstudio

          Sono sicuro che ti posso aiutare. Io ho dieci anni di esperienza in questo
          campo e ho aiutato molti giovani a trovare un lavoro. È vero che nel mondo
          di oggi molti posti di lavoro stanno scomparendo ma ci sono altri dove le
          persone saranno sempre necessarie. Ci sarà sempre bisogno di lavoratori
          per costruire case e riparare luci e bagni. Perché non consideri un mestiere
          di questo tipo? È sempre possibile trovare successo senza una laurea
          universitaria.
          Milo Avviso

                                                 Intervista alla Dottoressa Ranfi
             Di cosa parla il suo ultimo libro “L’eredità culturale oggi”?
             La maggior parte di noi ha un’eredità culturale diversa dalla regione o dal paese
             in cui abita. Questo libro ci dice quanto è importante non dimenticare le nostre
             origini. Conoscere le tradizioni dei nostri genitori o dei nostri nonni e la loro
             storia è un modo per conoscere meglio noi stessi, le nostre radici.
             Secondo Lei, le nuove generazioni lo fanno?
             Moltissimi giovani visitano il paese dei nonni ed imparare la lingua o il dialetto
             e magari anche qualche vecchia ricetta. Durante la visita vogliono vivere come
             i loro antenati per conoscere meglio la loro vita. Capiscono l’importanza di
             questo e non vogliono perdere quest’ opportunità. Si sentono arricchiti da questa
             ricerca.

Question 16 (8 marks)

Read the text, then answer the questions that follow.

                                Cosa stiamo veramente guardando in TV?
        Una volta quando si accendeva la TV la differenza tra realtà e invenzione era
        abbastanza chiara. Da una parte c’erano i film, i cartoni animati e gli episodi
        di telefilm e di telenovele e mentre dall’altra il telegiornale con le notizie del
        giorno e i talk show.
        Oggi, invece, siamo inondati da programmi che sono chiamati reality, ma
        che tanto reality non sono. Guardiamo persone che fanno finta di vivere
        normalmente o di sopravivvere in situazioni molto improbabili! Quale
        celebrità potrebbe sopravivvere su un’isola deserta? Chi non riconosce il
        capo della loro ditta? Si dice che questi programmi riflettono davvero la
        verità.
        Nel cuore, sappiamo che questo non è giusto ma ci commoviamo e ci
        arrabbiamo lo stesso quando lo scapolo affascinante dà la rosa ad una delle
        sue ammiratrici invece che ad un’altra. E le chiamiamo per nome, come dei
        buoni conoscenti, “Hai visto che vestito indossava Luana ieri sera? ”, “Ma
        perché Marco ha scelto quella scema? ” Non vediamo l’ora di sapere cosa
        succederà domani.
        Ma, allora, non sarebbe meglio vedere un bel vecchio film dove gli attori
        sono bravi e la storia è bella dopo avere cenato insieme con la famiglia o
        gli amici?
