Scientists Create Glue Inspired by Mussels
Topic: Have you ever wondered how those hard-shelled mollusks known as mussels anchor
themselves to rocks on lake and river bottoms? How they stick to sea walls, or resist pounding waves?
Scientists at the University of Chicago have done more than come up with some answers. They've
actually created a synthetic gel that mimics the mussel's sticky, self-healing properties. Their invention
could have far-reaching medical and industrial applications.
Niels Holten-Anderson - a post-doctoral scholar at the University of Chicago - says mussels do
two things really well. They excrete a sticky (1) ……… and they can use that natural glue to repair the anchoring bond.
Niels Holten-Anderson: "And the important thing to remember is that there are no (2) ……….
There is no live or living activity taking place inside these materials. The material is basically a dead
material, just like our hair. So this capacity to re-heal itself is completely (3) ………, and it's not
relying on any sort of energy input from living cells."
Holten-Anderson and colleagues at the University of Chicago, and a team of international
scientists have worked on how to turn what mussels do naturally into a (4) ……… material. They
zeroed in on the chemistry of what the mollusks secrete and discovered metal mixed inside their thin,
hold-fast fibers. Holten-Anderson says iron is a key ingredient that makes the adhesive strong and (5) ……….. .
Niels Holten-Anderson: "The (6) ……… thing is you can pull them apart and if you leave them
be, they can find their (7) ……… again and re-heal, and that's where the re-healing and its original
strength comes from."Holten-Anderson and colleagues set out to (8) ……… that in the laboratory
using a synthetic polymer or a simplified version of a string of mussel protein molecules. They
succeeded when they pre-mixed the polymer with metal (9) ……… at low pH.
Niels Holten-Anderson: "You instantly get an initiation of these self-healing strong gel-like,
sticky materials as soon as you do this basically step-wise process of mixing things, and then increase
the pH potentially (10) ……… what actually happens in the natural case anyway. 1
"Iron is the metal available to mussels in the environment”. Holten-Anderson says scientists can
expand that (11) ……… and experiment with other metals.
Niels Holten-Anderson: "We've shown so far that a metal such as titanium, for example, which
is interesting from the bio-medical side of things with implant materials and so forth, that we can
actually use titanium atoms too to cross in these materials and those materials seem to have even
stronger, or even higher (12) ……… than the iron based materials."
Holten-Anderson expects the (13) ……… material will have practical medical and
(14)………uses. A patent is (15) ……… on how to make the gel, which is described online in the
Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences.

Every Picture Tells a Story
Adapting novels for film almost always involves a process of reduction,
(41) ……… and deletion. This can be very frustrating for the writer, but CONDENSE
also illuminating. Working on a script, I was struck by how much of the
dialogue and narrative description in a (42)……… scene in the novel I GIVE
could (43) ………with, while still getting across the same point. This DISPENSATION
does not necessarily mean that the dialogue and description of the origin
were (44) ……… It is a matter of the type of attention demanded of the SUPERFLUITY
audience by narrative in each medium, and a matter of the type of
redundancy each (45) ……… I do not mean “redundancy” in the usual EMPLOYEE 3
(46)……..sense of material which is unnecessary, but in a technical COLLOQUY
sense. In a novel, such redundancy would include the repeated
(47)……… to certain traits by which characters are identified, as well ALLUDE
as speech tags such as “he said”. Strictly speaking a character trait needs
to be described only once, but it assists comprehension if we are
constantly reminded of it. And usually we can infer who is speaking in a
scene of dialogue from the content and layout on the page, but speech
tags make reading easier. Stage drama, which consists mostly of speech,
imitates and (48) ……… the redundancy of real speech with various PRODUCTION
degrees of (49) ……… . In some modern dramas, this is taken to an STYLIST
extreme, so that the dialogue seems to consist almost entirely of
redundant language, whose function is purely phatic (merely establishing
contact between the two speakers), leaving us in the dark as to what is being ……(50) . COMMUNICATE
Part 3. The passage below contains 10 mistakes. For questions 51- 60, find out and correct them.
It was the human factor that contributes to the absolute majority of road accidents which
involves the tremendous toll of fatalities each year. Other, less decisive, causes are vehicle functions
or road shortcomings. Speeding motorists are notorious about failing to give way at junctions, judging
the situation on the road or being unable to accurately estimate the distance while overtaking the
“snailpacers” ahead. Drinkers who settle behind the wheel after one glass or two may be running the
risk of causing a tragedy through their impairing perception, which is not so rare a case, again.
Unfortunately, it is much simpler to introduce the necessary alterations in the traffic system that
change the behavioural patterns of drivers. There are voices that more severe disciplinary resolutions
ought to put into practice if the vehicle users are to benefit from greater security on the road. The idea
of producing safe road users through pre-school parental instruction or through incorporating the safety
regulations for school curriculum has been widely acclaimed in many communities and are expected to
yield the required results as the first step in bettering the qualifications of the future drivers and
acquaint them with the potential hazards that may arise en route.

SECTION THREE: READING COMPREHENSION (70/ 200 points)
Part 1. For questions 71-84, read the passage and fill in each gap with a suitable word.
Brands now dominate our shopping habits, working lives and leisure activities. Corporate logos
abound, and this ‘brandscape’ in which we live is (71) ………: walk down a street in any city in the
world and there will be enough brands to make you (72) ……… at home. The intrusion is not just (73)
………, it is mental and spiritual. Research and surveys repeatedly (74) ……… that brands generate
more trust than (75) ……… institution. A successful brand offers consistency of quality, a point of
certainty in an uncertain world; insecure, we latch (76) ………to the familiar and predictable. Brands
are no longer simply about the (77) ……… of the product or service they sell, but are promoted as a
(78) ……… of values. (79) ………, we use brands and we decode the use of brands to establish the
status of others. Now, as brands (80)………. on good causes, they are implicitly bidding (81) ………
legitimise the corporation as a morally and socially responsible institution. The aim is that the audience
will (82) ……… the human exploitation and environmental waste invariably (83)……… in the
production of the goods, and believe that the corporation is a good thing. Brands have become a
philosophy, and when consumers buy the brand, they buy into the (84) ……… stance of the corporation.
Part 2. For questions 85-96, read the passage and choose the best answer A, B, C or D. The value of walking
New research reveals that walking just 9,5 kilometers (six miles) a week may make your brain sharper
as you get older. Research published in the October 13 online issue of Neurology (85) ……… that
walking may protect aging brains from growing smaller and, in (86) ………, preserve memory in old age.
‘Brain size shrinks in late adulthood, which can (87) ……… memory problems,' study author Kirk
Erickson of the University of Pittsburgh said in a news release. ‘Our findings should encourage further
well-designed scientific (88) ……… of physical exercise in older adults as a very (89) ………approach
for preventing dementia and Alzheimer's disease.’ For the study, the team asked 299 dementia-free
seniors to record the (90) ……… they walked each week.
Four years later, the participants were tested to see if they had developed (91) ……… of dementia.
Then after nine years had passed, scientists (92) ……… the participants’ brains to measure size. At the
four-year test, researchers discovered subjects who walked the most had (93) ……… their risk of
developing memory problems by 50 per cent. At the nine-year checkpoint, those who walked at least
9.5 kilometers a week, had brains with a larger (94). ……… than those who didn't walk as much. This
is not the first study to (95) ……… the benefits of walking in seniors. For example, last spring,
Harvard University found that women who walked regularly at a (96) ……… pace had an almost 40

SHAPING TOURISM TRENDS
- the commercial perspective
It is the commercial sector which converts tourism trends into reality through availability of
money and response to market needs to make profit. Tourism projects do not occur unless there are
sound commercial results coming from them. Even governments and local authorities are now applying
commercially based techniques to evaluate tourism, and are asking for rates of return on community
investments. Commercial evaluation is commonplace in tourism and the only trends that are going to
emerge in the future are those that make money. The exploitable trend is the one which will survive and
be developed. For example, the demographic trends in Europe show an increase in an ageing population
and adequate market research and an in-depth understanding of the needs of this sector of the
population has given rise to a whole industry based on holidays for the 55-65 age groups.
A. Let's look at the commercial hotel sector's response over 25 years ago to an occupancy problem in
London, UK, at weekends. Hotels were empty. The answer was the weekend-break in London with train
ticket and hotel combined. The mini-break or weekend away in a hotel is now an established part of UK
life and there are non-trends within that - differentiation of mini-weekends into those based on activities,
culture, learning, and so on. A trend created and exploited originally by one hotel company but now part of the UK lifestyle.
Another demographic trend - the larger number of travelling businesswomen - has given rise to the
female executive bedroom now being promoted by hotel companies and quite a changed attitude on the
part of hotel restaurant managers to women dining on their own.
The trend in fitness and health is currently being successfully exploited by tour operators, travel
agents, hotels and restaurants in the form of activity-centred holidays, health food menus and even non-
alcoholic wine fists. The commercial hotel sector has established the trend towards a much more
sophisticated hotel product including clubrooms, 'no smoking' rooms, rapid check out and pre-
registration. And provision of a greater range of facilities in the room is being given a great deal of
attention by many groups and mini-bars. In-house video/films, hair dryers, more sophisticated lighting
controls and bed head panel controls for radio, TV, etc are now quite common.
B. The growth in the ski market - there are now some 600,000 skiers in the UK - is not just the creation
of suitable packages by the travel trade but also has retail backing in ski-wear by firms like Marks and
Spencer. The spin-off of the exploitation of this trend into the sales of thermal underwear is probably as
good a demonstration of the induced tourism multiplier as anyone will need. This is a concerted
commercial effort to increase the business volumes and to develop the trend where the winter holiday
becomes an accepted part of life.
Providing new good-standard hotels in Cairo enhanced that destination's attractiveness and opened it up
to a much wider market where volume travel and volume accommodation could work hand in hand. The
inhibiting factor in developing Istanbul as a much more viable tourist destination is the lack of volume of
good standard accommodation. This is an opportunity waiting to be exploited which will not only benefit
Istanbul but also the southern coast of Turkey as it raises the whole potential of two-destination holidays
- the wealth of history of Istanbul plus the beaches of the southern coast. This example is typical of the 6
potential that exists in tourism just requiring commercialisation. This potential had already been
recognized by the Turkish government who provided the necessary infrastructure, so creating the trend
towards Turkish as opposed to Spanish or Yugoslav or Greek holidays is already under way.
C. Commercial trend shaping does not just happen by accident, it has to be adequately researched,
planned, developed and carefully executed. There are still people with fixed attitudes towards tourism
who think that investment in tourism is suspect - much tourism infrastructure has little alternative use. It
is for that reason that the commercial approach to tourism has to be thorough, based on sound marketing,
and has to show an adequate return on investment. In a number of instances negative attitudes to tourism
investment have meant that in order for the economic benefits of tourism to be realized governments
have had to provide the impetus for that development either in terms of providing the infrastructure or in
the form of grants and loans for tourism purposes. Governments do, however, realize substantial tax and
fiscal income from their tourist industries. There are great cases for governments being able to help
themselves by investing in their own tourist industries. They can obtain an excellent return from any
investment they make in the industry. Also, partnerships between government and commercial interests
can produce excellent benefits for both.
D. Shaping a trend in tourism is concerned with opportunity identification and creating a level of
expectation which then has to be met through product development and providing the customer with
what is promised. The final judge of the received value of the commercial tourism product is the
customer and it is customer reaction that keeps the concern in business. The customer is therefore the
logical starting point in commercial tourism.
Social trends have already shown shifts in age groupings, and people with more disposable income,
more leisure time and fewer children. These are the opportunities for commercial tourism already being
exploited. More customers for tourism are being created daily. The first-time holiday taker has quite
different needs from the experienced traveller and these are the opportunities for new types of budget
accommodation (for example) for these new markets. Identifying these new customers and being aware
of the changing requirements of existing customers represents the commercial opportunity which can be
developed and the way in which a trend can be established.
E. There are of course, a few negative aspects to the commercial approach in tourism. Commercial
exploitation has had a bad name. That attitude, fortunately, is now changing and development these days
tends to go ahead in a much closer and controlled partnership with government local authorities, the local
environment, the people and the commercial sector. The future is bright, but with increasing competition
from new developing destinations and sophisticated attractions, commercial decisions in tourism will
themselves become more sophisticated. The commercial sector can develop a trend, and has produced
many innovations in tourism. It is a wealth and job creator. To continue that role the commercial sector
must be allowed to proceed without interference. Tourism is a success, but it needs to be able to respond
to market circumstances unrestrained.

Up, up and away!
So you think you're inconvenienced by having to put your personal belongings in a clear plastic
bag and arrive at the airport three hours before departure? Imagine how recent security changes are
affecting aviation personnel. You don't need to be a regular viewer of 'Airport' to know that
commercial airport staff are accountable for all sorts of situations both within and outside of their control. 111
Balpa, which has over 9,000 of Britain's airline pilots in membership, wants safety
recommendations from pilots to be taken much more seriously. Many pilots feel that the system is
making their jobs more difficult rather than improving security. And, of course, with the recent increase
in the terrorist threat, a career in aviation might not be the first thing on the mind of the nation's graduates. 112
North, from Cambridge, is a first officer with KLM. Her job involves flying from Amsterdam to
various European destinations, checking flight planning and fuel measures. She has wanted to be a pilot
since she was very young. "I went on holiday with my family and was allowed a flight deck visit," she
says. "When I saw all the screens and dials I thought, wow, I want to do that!” 113
She says one of the best things about being a pilot is "the feeling you get when it's pouring with
rain and freezing cold on the ground, then when you go flying and pop up through the clouds and it's
warm and sunny." She continues: "Sometimes, you have to get up at 2.30 a.m. to get to work and if you
are really unlucky you'll get that scheduled six days in a row. There are rules about how long you can
work, but after 14 hours on day six ... it's exhausting” 114
However, despite the cost of training, competition for training positions at flight schools is
normally fierce. The RAF offers university and sixth form sponsorship for certain RAF careers, and
you can receive up to £4,000 a year as an undergraduate. 115
Thirty-two-year-old Zoe Goldspink is a senior flight attendant for Virgin Airways. She trained for
6 weeks at the Horley Flight Centre near Gatwick, learning safety, security, customer service and
medical training. It's a comprehensive training programme and entry requirements vary from airline to
airline. None require a degree but some prefer a European language, most have minimum GCSE
requirements and some like experience in a custom service role.
A. Training as a pilot can be a pretty pricey exercise. Costs vary but potential flyers need to have
around £60,000 in sponsorship or private wealth. Some airlines offer sponsorship, and some offer
methods for borrowing and repaying this money that may be linked to a starting salary.
B. One of the most annoying things is delays at check-in. In high season these can be
unacceptably long and many people get irate at having to hang around. Terrorist treats have added to
this problem of course and I appreciate that, but I still don't see why it takes quite so long. It drives me 9
mad and so I never fly anywhere unless I really have to. I'm also slightly nervous of flying, so for me it's just a necessary evil.
C. Brunel University is offering a BA and MA in aviation engineering and pilot studies. There are
also several aviation schools, such as Oxford Aviation Training, which offer full flight training as well
as post-qualification selection preparation. All of these courses offer qualifications which are recognized worldwide.
D. North won a flying scholarship with the Air Training Corps (Air Cadets) when she was
seventeen and used it to get her private pilot’s licence. She left the RAF when she won a sponsorship
with civilian commercial flying school, Cabair, before joining KLM as a first officer on the Fokker 50.
E. Goldspink says the benefits are obvious. "One minute you can be in New York and then the
following week in Hong Kong or on a beach in Barbados. It does disrupt your social life and
sometimes it can be a bit tiring, but there are far more pluses to the job. I love being cabin crew. It's the
endless variety that appeals so much to me."
F. But it's not all terrifying, says Kate North. "Exciting, perhaps. Thankfully, confidence in the
industry remains strong and it seems more people are flying than ever before. Obviously, there is
increased security at UK airports but that is necessary for the safety and wellbeing of all passengers. I
think most passengers appreciate that."
G. Other than doctors and nurses, there are few people whose hands we put our lives in so
readily. We are not in control of our fate when we are passengers on a plane. Travelling 30,000 feet in
the air with nothing for company except an in-flight magazine, tensions can run high.
