I. Reading
Read the texts (A–G) given below. Decide if the sentences (1–8) are T (true) or F (false).
A Dragons can be found in countless stories around the world. The stories usually involvethe slaying of the dragon by a hero. Dragons are symbols of evil, magic and power, perhaps because they often guard a treasure in a cave. Typically described as monstrous, lizardlike creatures that can breathe fire, have big claws, wings and a long spiky tail, it’s no wonder they are storybook favourites.
B The Sphinx is a mysterious creature from Egypt and Greece. It had the body, legs and tail of a lion, a human head (sometimes male, sometimes female) and large, strong wings. The most famous sphinx from Greek legends was in Thebes. It asked travellers a riddle. Those who could answer the riddle were allowed to pass and those who could not were killed.
C The Sirens come from Greek mythology. They were very attractive creatures who were half woman and half bird, with wings and claws. They lived on an island between Italy and Sicily, and their beautiful voices and haunting songs lured sailors to their deaths by making them steer their ships straight towards the island and crash onto the rocks.
D Unicorns were magical mythical creatures that looked like horses. They first appearedin ancient myths from Mesopotamia, China and India. They were strong, wild and fierce, with glossy white coats, blue eyes and a horn projecting from their foreheads. People believed that if they drank from a unicorn’s horn they would be immune to all poisons.
E The Hydra was a huge snake-like monster with nine heads. Each head was attached to a long neck, and if one was cut off, two would grow back in its place. They feature in Greek and African mythology.
F Giants were huge humanlike creatures that appeared mainly in European folklore. They were tall, fat and ugly, and some had only one eye. They were feared and hated because of their cruelty, stupidity and fondness for eating people, although friendly giants were not completely unheard of.
G Griffins were gigantic mythical creatures from the Middle East and the Mediterranean. They had a lion’s body and an eagle’s head and wings, with pointed ears like a horse. With the speed and sight of an eagle and the strength and courage of a lion, griffins often protected vast treasures.
