 Visitors to London are struck by the proud splendour and glamour of one of the world's 
oldest capitals, admiring iconic sites like Big Ben, the Palace of Westminster and Buckingham 
Palace. However, visitors seeking a glimpse into the city's everyday life should not miss 
Portobello Market, which is the most-visited market in London. 
 This vibrant market has been featured in a number of films, documentaries and best-
selling books, the most famous being the film ''Notting Hill'' starring Hugh Grant and Julia 
Roberts, which brought Portobello Market to the attention of audiences all over the world. 
 Portobello Market is divided into different sections selling second-hand items, clothing, 
jewellery, souvenirs and vegetables. The most sought-after area is devoted to antiques. Visitors 
may feel overwhelmed as there are over 1,000 booths manned by antique dealers from throughout 
England. It's a great fun to browse through antique cameras, watches, pottery and paintings that 
date back 300 years. They are sold at different prices, so it's possible to find a few good bargains. 
It seems that both buyers and sellers look forward to the weekends when they can meet and 
escape the city's fast pace at Portobello Market. 
 When tired from exploring the market, visitors can drop into the nearby food courts to 
savour an Indian curry, Italian pizza or sandwiches from Europe. It's a great pleasure to drink a 
cappuccino while listening to street performers. These represent the lively fun of Portobello 
Market, offering exciting experiences that keep people coming back.

the correct answer to each of the questions from 35 to 42. 
 Cambridge University is considering axing compulsory written exams, allowing students 
to use laptops or iPads instead, after tutors complained that students' handwriting is becoming 
illegible. Academics say the move, which would bring an end to over 800 years of tradition, has 
come about because students rely too heavily on laptops in lectures, and are losing the ability to 
write by hand. 
 Dr Sarah Pearsall, a senior lecturer at Cambridge University, said handwriting is becoming 
a ''lost art'' among the current generation of students. She added, ''It's increasingly hard for our 
examiners to read students' scripts. Those with illegible writing are forced to come back to their 
college during the summer holidays to read their answers aloud in the presence of two university 
administrators. It's extraordinarily commendable that the University is considering reforms to its 
examination practices.''
