Most of us trade money for entertainment.__1__But if you think you can't have a good time without spending lots of money, read on. You can find some new discoveries.

Remember one sentence: the best things in nature are free. If you have the eyes to find fun around you, though you have no money, you can have a great time!

__2__Stroll through busy streets and see what everybody else is doing. You will probably see  people from all over the world; you will certainly see people of every age, size, and shape, and you will get a free fashion show, too.

Check the listings in your neighborhood newspaper. Local colleges or schools often welcome the public to hear an interesting speech or a good debate. __3__Be sure to check commercial advertisements in the newspapers, too. A flea market can provide hours of pleasant browsing. Perhaps you can find a free cooking or crafts demonstration in a department store.

__4__It is always more pleasant not to have people in front of you in a museum or at a zoo. You may save some money, too, for these places often set aside one or two free admission days at slow times.

This is the VOA Special English Education Report. A few weeks ago, we talked about the Test of English as a Foreign Language, or TOEFL. A listener in Cambodia named Thida asks if American colleges and universities also accept the IELTS exam. IELTS is the International English Language Testing System. It was developed by University of Cambridge ESOL Examinations.

Cambridge ESOL says the test measures true－to－life ability to communicate in English for education, immigration or employment. The IELTS tests listening, reading, writing and speaking skills. It uses a mixture of accents and spellings, including British English and American English.

The test is used by government agencies, schools and professional organizations in one hundred twenty countries. __1__ Many American schools that accept the IELTS can be found on the Web at ielts.org.

__2__ But the graduate school at Duke University in Durham, North Carolina, for example, says it prefers the IELTS.

The listening and speaking parts are the same for everyone who takes the IELTS. But people have a choice of reading and writing tests—either academic or general training. The listening test takes thirty minutes. __3__

The reading test takes sixty minutes. Students answer forty questions based on three written passages.

The writing test also takes sixty minutes. Students have to write two essays. One essay has to be at least one hundred fifty words long and the other at least two hundred fifty words. __4__ The longer one has to support an argument.

__5__ The score is based on a recorded talk between the student and a test examiner.

A. IELTS is a comprehensive test of your English proficiency.

B. And, yes, that includes the United States.

C. The shorter one is a description of something.

D. Some schools accept both the TOEFL and the IELTS.

E. These language skills are increasingly demanded by international employers, education institutions and professional associations.

F. There are forty questions based on a recording.

G. The speaking test takes less than fifteen minutes.
