Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, or D on your answer sheet to indicate the best answer to each of the questions.
Members of the royal family have received a wave of tributes from across the globe following the death of Prince Philip, Queen Elizabeth's husband. Buckingham Palace expressed the Queen's 'profound grief' after her husband of 73 years, who had supported her throughout her reign, passed away peacefully at Windsor Castle at the age of 99 on Friday night (Australian time).
Flags at Buckingham Palace and government buildings across the United Kingdom were lowered to half-mast, and within an hour of the announcement the public began to lay flowers outside Windsor Castle and Buckingham Palace. However, mourners have been urged not to gather and leave tributes at royal residences, and the public has been asked to stay away from funeral events because of the coronavirus pandemic. An online book of condolence has been launched on the Royal Family's official website for people to leave messages of sympathy.
The prince died two months short of his 100th birthday. He had recently spent four weeks in hospital with an infection where he was treated for a heart condition before being discharged and returned to Windsor early in March. The Duke of Edinburgh had been by his wife's side throughout her 69-year reign, the longest in British history, and during that time earned a reputation for a tough, no-nonsense attitude, and a propensity for occasional gaffes. A Greek prince, Philip married Elizabeth in 1947, and together they had four children, eight grandchildren, and nine great grandchildren. He played a key role helping the monarchy adapt to a changing world in the post-World War II period, and behind the walls of Buckingham Palace was the one key figure the Queen could trust and turn to, knowing he could tell her exactly what he thought.
