Reading
Task 1. Read the text. Mark the sentences 1-5 T (True), F (False) or DS (Doesn't Say)
Liam Killeen is a rising star in cross-country mountain biking. He has raced since he was 12 and
has had both successes and disappointments in that time. His worst moment so far was during a
recent World Championship. His front tyre started to lose air in the last part of the race and he
finished fourth. This was not the first time he'd been unlucky. In a previous race, it was raining
heavily and he crashed his bike just minutes after the start.
He often gets nervous before a race but thinks that this is a good thing. "Nervous energy makes
you go faster and on the day, it's all about winning. The important thing is to stay positive.
Liam likes a hard race with steep climbs. They make all the difference. You have to be
really fit to get ahead'. He also enjoys entering competitions at top levels as there are fewer riders
in the race and this makes the start easier. You can get into the front group more quickly."
Liam has been chosen to go to the Olympic Games and one day he would like to win a
medal. 'I'm still quite young and expect to be riding until my mid-thirties so I've got enough time
to achieve my dream. I know the Olympics are hard and I'll have to produce my best performance
yet. But I feel confident.'
Liam trains for 30 hours a week - always outside and he reaches speeds of 65 kph. He thinks
that cycling professionally is the best job in the world and would recommend it to anyone.
His advice to people starting to race is, 'Be prepared for some hard work. If the training was easy
wouldn't make you faster'.
