READING TEST

Part 1

Read the text. Fill in each gap with ONE word. You must use a word which is somewhere
in the rest of the text.

Scotland Yard

Scotland Yard is the headquarters of the Metropolitan Police in London. To most people, its
name immediately brings to mind the picture of a detective — cool, efficient, ready to track
down any criminal, or a helmeted 1____________ constable — that familiar figure of the
London scene and trusty helper of every traveller from overseas.

Scotland Yard is situated on the Thames Embankment close to the Houses of Parliament
and the familiar clock tower of Big Ben, and its jurisdiction extends over 740 square miles
with the exception of the ancient City of 2____________, which possesses its own separate
police force

One of the most successful developments in Scotland Yard’s crime detection and
emergency service has been the “999 system”. On receipt of a call the 999 Room operator
ascertains by electronic device the position of the nearest available police car, which is
contacted by radio. Almost instantly a message is also sent by teleprinter to the police
station concerned so that within seconds of a 3____________ for assistance being received,
a police 4____________ is on its way to the scene. An old-established section of the
5____________ police is the Mounted Branch, with its strength of about 200 horses stabled
at strategic points. These 6____________ are particularly suited to ceremonial
occasions, for they are accustomed to military bands

An interesting branch of Scotland Yard is the 7____________ of Police Dogs, first used as an
experiment in 1939. Now these 8____________ are an important part of the Force. One
dog, for example, can search a warehouse in ten minutes, whereas the same search would
take six men an hour

There is also the River Police, or Thames Division, which deals with all 9____________s
occurring within its river boundaries.

There are two other departments of Scotland Yard – the Witness Room (known as the
Rogues’ Gallery) where a photographic record of known and suspected criminals is kept,

BENEFICIAL WORK PRACTICES FOR THE KEYBOARD

OPERATOR

A. Sensible work practices are an important factor in the prevention of muscular fatigue;
discomfort or pain in the arms, neck, hands or back; or eye strain which can be
associated with constant or regular work at a keyboard and visual display unit (VDU).
B. It is vital that the employer pays attention to the physical setting such as workplace
design, the office environment, and placement of monitors as well as the organisation

Online course : @EFLtutor7 page 10

 Telegram channel: https://t.me/PROFESSIONALS_cefr

of the work and individual work habits. Operators must be able to recognise work-
related health problems and be given the opportunity to participate in the
management of these. Operators should take note of and follow the preventive
measures outlined below.
C. The typist must be comfortably accommodated in a chair that is adjustable for height
with a back rest that is also easily adjustable both for angle and height. The back rest
and sitting ledge (with a curved edge) should preferably be cloth-covered to avoid
excessive perspiration.
D. When the keyboard operator is working from a paper file or manuscript, it should be at
the same distance from the eyes as the screen. The most convenient position can be
found by using some sort of holder. Individual arrangement will vary according to
whether the operator spends more time looking at the VDU or the paper – whichever
the eyes are focused on for the majority of time should be put directly in front of the
operator.
E. While keying, it is advisable to have frequent but short pauses of around thirty to sixty
seconds to proofread. When doing this, relax your hands. After you have been keying
for sixty minutes, you should have a ten minute change of activity. During this spell it is
important that you do not remain seated but stand up or walk around. This period
could be profitably used to do filing or collect and deliver documents.
F. Generally, the best position for a VDU is at right angles to the window. If this is not
possible then glare from the window can be controlled by blinds, curtains or movable
screens. Keep the face of the VDU vertical to avoid glare from overhead lighting.
G. Unsatisfactory work practices or working conditions may result in aches or pain.
Symptoms should be reported to your supervisor early on so that the cause of the
trouble can be corrected and the operator should seek medical attention

Part 4

Read the following text for questions 22-30

THE POTENTIAL TO SNIFF OUT DISEASE

The fact diseases have a smell comes as no surprise - but finding someone or something that
can detect them at an early stage could hold huge potential for medicine.

Breath, bodily odours and urine are all amazingly revealing about general health. Even the

Online course : @EFLtutor7 page 11

 Telegram channel: https://t.me/PROFESSIONALS_cefr

humble cold can give off an odour, thanks to the thick bacteria-ridden mucus that ends up
in the back of the throat. The signs are not apparent to everyone - but some super-smellers
are very sensitive to the odours. Joy Milne, for example, noticed her husband's smell had
changed shortly before he was diagnosed with Parkinson's disease.

Humans can detect nearly 10,000 different smells. Formed by chemicals in the air, they are
absorbed by little hairs, made of extremely sensitive nerve fibres, hanging from the nose's
olfactory receptors. And the human sense of smell is 10,000 times more sensitive than the
sense of taste. But dogs, as the old joke might have had it, smell even better.

Their ability to detect four times as many odours as humans makes them a potential early
warning system for a range of diseases. Research suggesting dogs' could sniff out cancers,
for example, was first published about 10 years ago. And there have been many tales of
dogs repeatedly sniffing an area of their owner's body, only for it to turn out to be hiding a
tumour.

What they are smelling are the "volatile molecules" given off by cells when they become
cancerous. Some studies suggest dogs can be 93% accurate. Others suggest they can detect
very small tumours before clinical tests can. And yet more studies have produced mixed
results.

Does cancer smell?

At Milton Keynes University Hospital, a small team has recently begun to collect human
urine samples to test dogs' ability to detect the smell of prostate cancer. The patients had
symptoms such as difficulty urinating or a change in flow, which could turn out to be
prostate, bladder or liver cancer.

Rowena Fletcher, head of research and development at the hospital, says the role of the
dogs - which have been trained by Medical Detection Dogs - is to pick out samples that
smell of cancer. Further down the line, a clinical test will show if the dogs' diagnosis is
correct. She says the potential for using dogs in this way is far-reaching - even if it is not
practical to have a dog in every surgery.

"We hope one day that there could be an electronic machine on every GP's desk which
could test a urine sample for diseases by smelling it," she says. "But first we need to pick up
the pattern of what the dogs are smelling."

And that's the key. Dogs can't tell us what their noses are detecting, but scientists believe
that different cancers could produce different smells, although some might also be very

Online course : @EFLtutor7 page 12

 Telegram channel: https://t.me/PROFESSIONALS_cefr

similar.

Electronic noses

Lab tests to understand what these highly-trained dogs are smelling could then inform the
development of 'electronic noses' to detect the same molecules. These might then give rise
to better diagnostic tests in the future. The potential for using smell to test for a wide range
of diseases is huge, Ms Fletcher says.

Bacteria, cancers and chronic diseases could all have their own odour - which may be
imperceptible to only the most sensitive humans, but obvious to dogs. It may be possible in
the future to use disease odours as the basis for a national screening programme or to test
everybody at risk of a certain cancer in a particular age group.

However, there are fewer than 20 dogs in the UK trained to detect cancer at present.
Training more will take more funding and time. On the positive side, all dogs are eligible to
be trained provided they are keen on searching and hunting. Whatever their breed or size,
it's our four-legged friend's astounding sense of smell which could unlock a whole new way
of detecting human diseases.

Trash Talk

Sorting through a mountain of pottery to track the Roman oil trade

A. In the middle of Rome’s trendiest neighborhood, surrounded by sushi restaurants and

nightclubs with names like Rodeo Steakhouse and Love Story, sits the ancient world’s
biggest garbage dump—a 150-foot-tall mountain of discarded Roman amphoras, the
shipping drums of the ancient world. It takes about 20 minutes to walk around Monte
Testaccio, from the Latin testa and Italian cocci, both meaning “potsherd.” But despite
its size—almost a mile in circumference—it’s easy to walk by and not really notice unless
you are headed for some excellent pizza at Velavevodetto, a restaurant literally stuck
into the mountain’s side. Most local residents don’t know what’s underneath the grass,

Online course : @EFLtutor7 page 14

 Telegram channel: https://t.me/PROFESSIONALS_cefr

dust, and scattering of trees. Monte Testaccio looks like a big hill, and in Rome people
are accustomed to hills.
B. Monte Testaccio stands near the Tiber River in what was ancient Rome’s commercial
district. Many types of imported foodstuffs, including oil, were brought into the city and
then stored for later distribution in the large warehouses that lined the river. So,
professor, just how many amphoras are there?” I ask José Remesal of the University of
Barcelona, co-director of the Monte Testaccio excavations. It’s the same question that
must occur to everyone who visits the site when they realize that the crunching sounds
their footfalls make are not from walking on fallen leaves, but on pieces of amphoras.
(Don’t worry, even the small pieces are very sturdy.) Remesal replies in his deep
baritone, “Something like 25 million complete ones. Of course, it’s difficult to be exact,”
he adds with a typical Mediterranean shrug. I, for one, find it hard to believe that the
whole mountain is made of amphoras without any soil or rubble. Seeing the incredulous
look on my face as I peer down into a 10-foot-deep trench, Remesal says, “Yes, it’s really
only amphoras.” I can’t imagine another site in the world where archaeologists find so
much—about a ton of pottery every day. On most Mediterranean excavations, pottery
washing is an activity reserved for blisteringly hot afternoons when digging is impossible.
Here, it is the only activity for most of Remesal’s team, an international group of
specialists and students from Spain and the United States. During each year’s two-week
field season, they wash and sort thousands of amphoras handles, bodies, shoulders,
necks, and tops, counting and cataloguing, and always looking for stamped names,
painted names, and numbers that tell each amphora’s story.
C. Although scholars worked at Monte Testaccio beginning in the late 19th century, it’s
only within the past 30 years that they have embraced the role amphoras can play in
understanding the nature of the Roman imperial economy. According to Remesal, the
main challenge archaeologists and economic historians face is the lack of “serial
documentation,” that is, documents for consecutive years that reflect a true chronology.
This is what makes Monte Testaccio a unique record of Roman commerce and provides
a vast amount of datable evidence in a clear and unambiguous sequence. “There’s no
other place where you can study economic history, food production and distribution,
and how the state controlled the transport of a product,” Remesal says. “It’s really
remarkable.”
