Remember that under the old curriculum the reading was Paper 1.
Have a look at 2013 onward. However, older exams are very similar and good practice, too. You should have a good understanding of grammatical structures and vocabulary. Your notes and workbook cover everything you need.

Paper 2 is based on the five themes: identities, experiences, human ingenuity, social organization, sharing the planet.
This examination is externally set and externally assessed. It is divided into two separate sections: listening (three audio passages) and reading (three written passages) covering different topics drawn from the five themes. The students’ understanding of the six passages is assessed in this examination; it does not test the students’ knowledge of any factual content of a specific topic. All audio and written passages are in the target language and all answers must be provided in the target language.
