Directions (1-10): Read the Following Passage Carefully and Answer the Questions Given Below It Directions (1-10): Read the following passage carefully and answer the questions given below it. Certain words are given in bold to help you locate them while answering some of the questions. Britain has always had something of a reputation as home to the world's favourite secret agents and now their popularity in books and films has increased with the action comedy from Universal Pictures. “Johnny English” stars one of Britain's most popular comedians, Rowan Atkinson (Mr. Bean) in the title role as an incompetent MI7 operative. He is “the agent even the Secret Service keep secret”, to quote the film's trailer. VisitBritain (formerly called British Tourist Authority) – aware of the pulling power of film through its popular Movie Map website and recent promotion of Harry Potter and ‘Magical Britain' – is now using Johnny English to entice visitors. Rather than simply suggesting they visit the locations – filmgoers will recognise many landmarks, mainly in London but also outside the capital – VisitBritain is also persuading visitors to become agents themselves. Their mission: to explore Britain, discover its traditions, gadgets and indulgences – and take on some action packed challenges! For example, adventurous types could see the countryside from a parachute go skiing across some of Scotland's mountainous landscapes or try water-skiing, canoeing and kayaking in England's beautiful Lake District. Those with fantasies about becoming a secret agent may feel their dreams coming true at places such as Silverstone, the Grand Prix motor-race track near Northampton, 60 miles north-west of London, where you can power around the track in a classic sports car without any speed limit worries. Or at romantic locations such as the ‘hidden' Italianate village of Portmeirion on the North Wales coast. Built by an eccentric architect, Sir Clough Williams- Ellis, it has often been used as a mysterious film and TV set by camera crews. Britain – for long a shopper's dream destination, where shopping malls are open seven days a week -- even has an appropriate chain of stores called Gadget Shops. Found in many towns and cities, they offer some surprising gifts of interest to amateur agents: from spyscopes and spycams to a £225 working model helicopter. For those interested in getting as close as possible to the world of secret agents, there are other things to see. Among its collection of aircraft, armoured vehicles and guns, London's Imperial War Museum has a permanent “Secret War” exhibition, which studies the factual world of espionage. 'Johnny English' director Peter Howitt, who also made the romantic comedy 'Sliding Doors', chose an impressive list of locations in which to shoot Atkinson and his co-stars, Australian singer Natalie Imbruglia and John Malkovich (who plays the arch-villain Pascal Sauvage). In London, viewers see the Tower of London, from where the priceless Crown Jewels are stolen; 10 Downing Street, home of the Prime Minister; Buckingham Palace (the Queen has been forced to abdicate!); Canary Wharf Tower, Europe's highest building; ornateBrompton Cemetery – and more. Among the rural locations in the film is Hughenden Manor in the Chiltern Hills – home of Prime Minister Benjamin Disraeli from 1847-1881 – and one of many historic places open to the public courtesy of conservation charity the National Trust. Britain boasts a wide range of locations – from heritage attractions and contemporary buildings to haunting moors and rugged hillsides – that have been used for exterior and interior shots in hundreds of films, making it a popular choice for directors from around the world and showcasing it to millions of potential visitors. Q1. What is/ are the endeavor(s) of Britain to attract tourists? (a) Promotion of their movies showcasing their heritage through websites.

Neither the size (a) / nor the colour (b) / of the trousers (c) / were right. (d) / No Error (e) Solution11: D ‘was’ will be used in place of ‘were’ as the subject of the sentence ‘the colour’ is singular. Q12. Everyone of (a) / the officials present here (b) / has given a day’s pay (c) / as their contribution to the fund. (d) / No Error. (e) Solution12: D Use ‘his’ in place of ‘their’ as after ‘everyone, everybody, anyone, anybody’, ‘his’ is used as possessive form. Ex. Everybody should do his duty. Q13. The gentleman (a) / together with his (b) / wife and daughter (c) / were drowned. (d) / No Error (e) Solution13: D Use ‘was’ in place of ‘were’ because if two subjects get connected ‘with, along with, together with’, then verb is used according to the subject close to it. Q14. He had looked upon me (a) / level-eyed for (b) / a few moments (c) / before he spoke. (d) / No Error (e) Solution14: A ‘at’ is the correct use in place of ‘upon’ as ‘look at’ means to glance or gaze in a manner specified. Q15.

    1 CHAPTER I INTRODUCTION 1.1 Background Movie has become a large product of popular literary that entertains from time to time. The production of movie itself is extremely big, and many people enjoy watching a movie. As Rochani Adi (2011:70) says that the movie also one forms of popular cultural product that is produced on a massive scale. In movie also contains so much thing, some movie just make people laugh, some other movie make people think and some other may make people cry. In many comedy movie, the content that make us laugh appears from irony that shown up by the characters in the movie itself. Most people are getting more attracted to the movie as the modern media of literary works. But however, movie has same power as well as the other media of literature, such as Jinks (1974) in Rochani Adi (2011:53) said: “No one would argue that film and literature are the same medium or even the same kind of experience. The primary thrust of literature is linguistic, hence indirect, while the impetus of film is imagistic and immediate. And yet, despite the obvious differences separating these two narrative forms, there are some rather startling resemblances between them” Movie is one of the best alternatives for someone to feel consoled. Particularly comedy movies, and now the genre of comedy movie combines with other genres, such as romantic-comedy, action-comedy, and many more. However, the combining genre, 2 particularly humor genre and other genres could take humor genre as the main genre of the movie, or occasionally it is only just the addition genre of the movie.
