+<th><p><strong>A</strong></p>
+<p>Football is an extremely popular world sport. Young men look up to
+famous footballers as role models. Several football stars began their
+sporting careers as children playing on the streets. However, many of
+them moved on to join football academies, or sports’ schools, to build
+their talent and become professional players.</p>
+<p><strong>B</strong></p>
+<p>A football academy is a school set up to develop young footballers.
+All major football clubs</p>
+<p>such as FC Barcelona, Manchester United and Real Madrid have their
+own academy.</p>
+<p>They scout, or look for, young talent and then teach them to play
+football to meet the club's standards at the academy.</p>
+<p><strong>C</strong></p>
+<p>Football academies provide football education to students who are 21
+years old and below. A student must be at least 9 years old to join an
+academy. However, some football clubs, such us Arsenal, have
+pre-training programmes for even younger players. All the boys at an
+academy continue their normal school education. It is important that
+they are able to get good jobs in case they fail to become professional
+footballers.</p>
+<p><strong>D</strong></p>
+<p>Players between the ages of 9 and 16 have to sign schoolboy forms.
+They sign a new contract every two years. When the player turns 16, the
+academy decides if they are going to offer the player a place on their
+Youth Training Scheme. Each year, the best players receive a
+scholarship. This gives them free football training and an academic
+education.</p>
+<p><strong>E</strong></p>
+<p>In a football academy, players attend training sessions in the
+afternoon on weekdays, and in the morning at weekends. On Sundays, they
+don’t train. They play matches against other academy teams. The football
+academies also encourage their players to take up other sports such as
+gymnastics or basketball.</p>
+<p><strong>F</strong></p>
+<p>FC Barcelona's football academy, La Masia, is one of the best
+football academies in the world. Located in Barcelona, Spain, La Masia
+has over 300 young players. Famous footballers and coaches such as
+Lionel Messi, Pep Guardiola and Ces Fabregas are graduates of La Masia.
+Many people think that Barcelona’s success in the football world is due
+to the excellent training programme provided at La Masia. Today, FC
+Barcelona has academies in other parts of the world including Egypt,
+Japan, America and Dubai.</p>

+<p>Football is an extremely popular world sport. Young men look up to
+famous footballers as role models. Several football stars began their
+sporting careers as children playing on the streets. However, many of
+them moved on to join football academies, or sports’ schools, to build
+their talent and become professional players.</p>
+<p><strong>B</strong></p>
+<p>A football academy is a school set up to develop young footballers.
+All major football clubs</p>
+<p>such as FC Barcelona, Manchester United and Real Madrid have their
+own academy.</p>
+<p>They scout, or look for, young talent and then teach them to play
+football to meet the club's standards at the academy.</p>
+<p><strong>C</strong></p>
+<p>Football academies provide football education to students who are 21
+years old and below. A student must be at least 9 years old to join an
+academy. However, some football clubs, such us Arsenal, have
+pre-training programmes for even younger players. All the boys at an
+academy continue their normal school education. It is important that
+they are able to get good jobs in case they fail to become professional
+footballers.</p>
+<p><strong>D</strong></p>
+<p>Players between the ages of 9 and 16 have to sign schoolboy forms.
+They sign a new contract every two years. When the player turns 16, the
+academy decides if they are going to offer the player a place on their
+Youth Training Scheme. Each year, the best players receive a
+scholarship. This gives them free football training and an academic
+education.</p>
+<p><strong>E</strong></p>
+<p>In a football academy, players attend training sessions in the
+afternoon on weekdays, and in the morning at weekends. On Sundays, they
+don’t train. They play matches against other academy teams. The football
+academies also encourage their players to take up other sports such as
+gymnastics or basketball.</p>
+<p><strong>F</strong></p>
+<p>FC Barcelona's football academy, La Masia, is one of the best
+football academies in the world. Located in Barcelona, Spain, La Masia
+has over 300 young players. Famous footballers and coaches such as
+Lionel Messi, Pep Guardiola and Ces Fabregas are graduates of La Masia.
+Many people think that Barcelona’s success in the football world is due
+to the excellent training programme provided at La Masia. Today, FC
+Barcelona has academies in other parts of the world including Egypt,
+Japan, America and Dubai.</p>
+<p><em><strong>Questions 11 to 15</strong></em></p>

+<th><p><strong>A</strong></p>
+<p>Football is an extremely popular world sport. Young men look up to
+famous footballers as role models. Several football stars began their
+sporting careers as children playing on the streets. However, many of
+them moved on to join football academies, or sports’ schools, to build
+their talent and become professional players.</p>
+<p><strong>B</strong></p>
+<p>A football academy is a school set up to develop young footballers.
+All major football clubs</p>
+<p>such as FC Barcelona, Manchester United and Real Madrid have their
+own academy.</p>
+<p>They scout, or look for, young talent and then teach them to play
+football to meet the club's standards at the academy.</p>
+<p><strong>C</strong></p>
+<p>Football academies provide football education to students who are 21
+years old and below. A student must be at least 9 years old to join an
+academy. However, some football clubs, such us Arsenal, have
+pre-training programmes for even younger players. All the boys at an
+academy continue their normal school education. It is important that
+they are able to get good jobs in case they fail to become professional
+footballers.</p>
+<p><strong>D</strong></p>
+<p>Players between the ages of 9 and 16 have to sign schoolboy forms.
+They sign a new contract every two years. When the player turns 16, the
+academy decides if they are going to offer the player a place on their
+Youth Training Scheme. Each year, the best players receive a
+scholarship. This gives them free football training and an academic
+education.</p>
+<p><strong>E</strong></p>
+<p>In a football academy, players attend training sessions in the
+afternoon on weekdays, and in the morning at weekends. On Sundays, they
+don’t train. They play matches against other academy teams. The football
+academies also encourage their players to take up other sports such as
+gymnastics or basketball.</p>
+<p><strong>F</strong></p>
+<p>FC Barcelona's football academy, La Masia, is one of the best
+football academies in the world. Located in Barcelona, Spain, La Masia
+has over 300 young players. Famous footballers and coaches such as
+Lionel Messi, Pep Guardiola and Ces Fabregas are graduates of La Masia.
+Many people think that Barcelona’s success in the football world is due
+to the excellent training programme provided at La Masia. Today, FC
+Barcelona has academies in other parts of the world including Egypt,
+Japan, America and Dubai.</p>
