Use of English Examen First Certificate

TOO MANY BEERS!

Read the text below and look carefully at each line. Some of the lines are correct, and some have a word which should not be there.
If the line is correct, put a tick at the end of the line. If a line has a word which should not be there, write the extra word at the end of the line. There are two examples at the beginning (0 and 00)

Remember to read the text quickly first before you start looking for words. (Time limit – 12-13 minutes)

0	When I had worked in London it was usual for most of the office workers
00	to go to the pub for a drink after work on Friday. We used to finish work	correct
01	about five o’clock and walk to the nearest pub that it was on the corner
02	of the street. English people usually buy rounds of drinks, which
03	means that one person will buy them everyone a drink and when
04	they are being finished, another person will buy a drink for
05	everyone. This continues until people decide to leave the pub, or until
06	they get extremely drunk. I recommend to trying this if you go to
07	England. One day we stayed in the pub until it closed at 11, and went to
08	A night club which was at about 20 kilometres from the pub. We got
09	to there very happy and very drunk. We danced, drank more beer and
10	thoroughly enjoyed ourselves the evening. When we left the club we
11	were all too drunk to drive and so that we decided to leave the car in
12	the car park. We asked of a waiter to call a taxi. While we were waiting,
13	I decided to dance in a water fountain which was outside the club. We
14	did not get back our home until very late. I was wet, tired and very
15	happy, but I had made a big surprise when I looked in my empty wallet!
