Ah. That looks like "O" Level Eng Lang 1955... "Explain the meaning of
/three/ of the following expressions in your own words."

All very sound stuff, until you realise that in some subjects the
language in the questions was more difficult than the language needed
to write the answers. There's a very interesting little book going the
rounds: /The O Level Book: Genuine Exam questions From Yesteryear/.
