Three great campsites to try this summer
Sandy Bay
This campsite is on an excellent beach, and has its own surfing school with special prices forcampers. You can also learn to windsurf and sail there. The sea is safe for swimming, so it’sa great place for families. The large swimming pool is great in summer, and has a wide areaof grass around it. Its small supermarket has long opening hours. It doesn’t matter what size
tent you bring, as the campsite is large and you won’t be too near your neighbours!
High Wood
There are lots of activities you can do at High Wood campsite, from fishing to cycling, andthey’ll lend you any of the equipment you need. It’s not as large as some campsites, but it’sclean and modern. It has a fantastic pool with a roof window which can open and close.
There’s also a special area where you can watch films or dance under the stars to local
bands. For food shopping, try the shop in the nearby village.
Black Lake
The wonderful thing about Black Lake campsite is waking up in the morning and seeing thebeautiful mountains all around you. You don’t have to bring your own tent – there are somealready there you can pay to use. There’s lots to do – you can swim in the lake or walk in theforest. And don’t forget to bring your mountain bike with you! If you want to cook for yourself,
the shop in the next village has a good variety of food.

Test 1PART 3
QUESTIONS 14–18
For each question, choose the correct answer.

Jack CalderViolin player Jack Calder plays in the Australian band, Ocean Blue.
Jack Calder started playing the violin when he was ten. ‘My music teacher played and one
day he asked if anyone wanted to learn. Some girls put up their hands and so did I. I didn’t
have a violin, but my uncle said I could use his. The lessons were really hard at first, but
playing the violin soon became important to me.’After leaving school, Jack moved to Melbourne. For a time, he preferred listening to music
to playing it. The rock music he listened to sounded very different from violin music, so hebought an electric violin, and started putting the things he liked about rock music into themusic he played on his violin.
A year later, Jack met a small group of Melbourne musicians. ‘We all thought about music in
the same way and started Ocean Blue together. A year later, we were playing lots of concerts,
and our music was selling well. But we didn’t want this to make us different people. We didn’t
want to stop being friends.’
Jack meets many people who think playing the violin is an unusual career, but he doesn’t
agree with them. ‘I think it’s the best thing in the world. I guess I’m lucky that way. Theinternet has changed music, but when I walk into a violin shop it’s like entering anotherworld – one where time has stopped. Someone has looked after these beautiful old
instruments that are two or three hundred years old. I think that’s amazing.’
