Carpets

The art of making carpets was probably developed on the plains of Central Asia a thousand years ago. The nomads (people who move from one place to another) needed some protection from the cold winters, something ___________________ (1) easily handled than the sheepskin coverings. ___________________ (2) the same time, they were also making decorations for their tents. The materials they used came from the herds of goats and flock of sheep.

The looms, the simplest form of carpets, were made of two wooden ribs which were secured to the ground and between them warp was fastened. These horizontal looms are still used today by the nomads _________________ (3) the looms can fold easily and can be moved to the next camp ground. The handmade carpets are made of short-time lasting materials and very old discoveries are rare.

B) But I’m worried about rush hours. Don’t you feel stressed? What do you do?

C) Well you know I’ve worked as a chef for the last five years and I work at the Grand Hotel now.

D) But you get lots of time off, don’t you? Look, you’re walking on the beach now at lunchtime.

have lots of servers.

F) What about mornings? Do you serve breakfast, too?

G) In the summer I’ll have to work longer hours. That’s because the hotel is busier.

Chris: Hi Alice. What are you doing walking on the beach? Shouldn’t you be at school?

Alice: Oh, I’ve left school. I’m going to college next month. I’m hoping to train to be a chef.

Chris: Really? (1)……………………………………………………….......................……. In fact I’m head chef there so you need to

talk to me if you want to know what the job is really like.

Alice: Well, what is it really like then? I’d like to work in a hotel like the Grand. I’m sure it’s really exciting and you get

to meet all kinds of rich and famous people.

Chris: Actually no. Chefs have to spend their time in the kitchen. Rich and famous people don’t go there.

Alice:(2)…………………………………………………………………………………..

Chris: Yes, but it’s my day off today. I needn’t think about the hotel kitchen today.

Alice: Well, normally then, what’s it like? You don’t have to work all day, do you?

Chris: (3)…………………………………………………………………………………….

Alice: Mmm, sounds like hard work. How many days off do you get?

Chris: In my last job, I had to work every day except Monday. At least here I have two days off every

week. (4)……………………………………………………….......................……. Listen, I must go now. You must

come to the hotel one day. You can have a look around. I can show you the kitchens and you can see what we do.

Alice: Mmm, thanks. I’m not so sure any more about being a chef.

Chris: Why not? It’s not so bad! You know it’s like a kind of therapy. I forget everything while I cook.

Alice: (5)……………………………………………………………………………….……

Chris: Regular preparation always saves the day!


DIALOGUE COMPLETION 2

B) We still have those rackets in stock. We can do a straight exchange.

for sales items.

E) The stitching around the frame is starting to come undone.

F) I regret to tell you that we don’t sell this brand. You must have bought it elsewhere.

G) I’m sorry sir, but we don’t give cash refunds under any circumstances.

Ray: Good morning. Could you help me please?

Sales person: Good morning. Of course. What can I do for you, sir?

Ray: I bought this badminton racket here a couple of weeks ago. A young lady served me.

Sales person: That would be Katy, sir. She doesn’t work on Tuesdays, but I’m sure I can help. Is there a problem?

Ray: There most certainly is. Just look here. You can see quite clearly what the problem is.

(1)…………………………………………………..………………... This is a reliable brand. I’ve used their rackets before. I expect

better workmanship than this.

Sales person: Was the racket on sale, sir, or did you pay full price?

Ray: It was on sale for half the usual price. But what difference does that make? I don’t expect to buy faulty goods

from you, no matter what I pay.

Sales person: Of course not, sir. Do you have the receipt?

Ray: I do. And the credit card receipt.

Sales person: (2)………………………………………………………..……………

Ray: Ah, yes. That’s right, I remember, I did pay cash. Yes, here’s the receipt. Anyway, I’ve brought the racket back to

you because it’s obviously faulty, and I’d like my money back.

Sales person: (3)…………………………………………..…………………………

Ray: That’s ridiculous. You sold me a faulty item. I am simply asking for my money back. That’s not an unreasonable

request, I think.

Sales person: (4)………………………………………….…………………………….

Ray: No, thank you. I don’t want another racket. I simply want my money back.

Sales person: I can’t help you with that, sir, because (5)………………………………………….………………………

Ray: That’s ludicrous! Is the manager available? I’d like to speak to him or her, please.

Sales person: Our manager will tell you the same thing.

Ray: Nonetheless. I don’t accept what you are saying at all. This is terrible customer service. I am not leaving this shop until you refund me my money.

2.4. READING COMPREHENSION 1

Tornadoes (1) Tornadoes are one of the most severe types of weather phenomena. While many people fear tornadoes and

their destructive power, few people understand their real causes and effects. They are not aware of how to protect

themselves from their devastating force as well. Tornadoes, violently rotating columns of air, occur when a change in

wind direction, coupled with an increase in wind speed, results in a spinning effect in the lower atmosphere.

These whirling movements, which may not be visible to the naked eye, are accelerated when the spinning air

column shifts from a horizontal to a vertical position. As the revolving cloud draws in the warm air that surrounds it

at ground level, its spinning motion begins to accelerate, thereby creating a funnel that extends from the cloud

above it to the ground below. In this way, tornadoes become suspended from low pressure storm clouds.

(2) When a tornado comes into contact with the ground, it produces a strong upward airflow known as a vortex, a

spiralling column of wind that can reach speeds in excess of 200 miles per hour. As the tornado moves through the

countryside, it causes extensive, geographically centralized damage. It is not uncommon for these storms to lift

heavy objects, like cars or large animals, and throw them several miles. Houses that give in to the force of the

tornado seem to explode as the low air pressure inside the vortex crashes with the normal air pressure inside the

buildings.

(3) Tornadoes can occur at any time of the year, but are typically most frequent during the summer months. Equally,

tornadoes can happen at any time during the day, but usually occur between 3:00 in the afternoon and 9:00 in the

evening. While these fierce funnels occur in many parts of the world, they are most common in the United

States. On average, there are 1,200 tornadoes per year in this vast nation, causing 70 fatalities and 1,500 injuries.

(4) Owing to the powerful and destructive nature of these winds, there are, perhaps not surprisingly, a number of

myths surrounding them. For instance, many people mistakenly believe that tornadoes never occur over rivers,

lakes, and oceans. Yet, waterspouts- tornadoes that form over bodies of water- often move onshore and cause

extensive damage to coastal areas. In addition, tornadoes can accompany hurricanes and tropical storms as they

move to land. Another common myth about tornadoes is that damage to built structures, like houses and office

buildings, can be avoided if windows are opened prior to the impact of the storm. Based on the misunderstanding

that open windows might equalize the pressure inside the structure and minimize the damage to it, this action can

instead result in fatal injury. Indeed, the highest number of deaths and injuries are not caused by the winds

themselves, but by flying debris, such as broken glass from open windows.

(5) Because of the profound effects that tornadoes have on communities and their inhabitants, safety measures are

of paramount importance during adverse weather conditions. Drivers often attempt to outrun tornadoes in their

cars, but it is extremely unsafe to do so. Automobiles offer very little protection when twisters strike, so drivers

should abandon their vehicles and seek safe shelter. Mobile homes afford little shelter, so residents of these homes

should go to an underground floor of the sturdiest nearby building. In the case of a building having no underground

area, a person should go to the lowest floor of the building and place him or herself under a piece of heavy furniture.

If no building is available, a person caught in a tornado should lie prostate in a nearby ditch or other depressed area

of land and cover his or her head. (Adapted from: http://demo.toeflibtcourse.com/toefl_R11s)

READING COMPREHENSION 2 (1) Taken together, income, occupation and education are good measures of people's social standing. Using a layered model of status system, most sociologists describe the class system in the US as divided into several classes: upper, upper middle, middle, lower middle and lower classes. Each class is defined by characteristics such as income, occupational prestige, and educational attainment. The different groups are structured along with a continuity with those with the most money, education, and prestige at the top and those with the least at the bottom.

(2) In the US, the upper class owns the major share of corporate and personal wealth: it includes those who have held wealth for generations as well as those who have recently become rich. Only a very small proportion of people actually constitute the upper class, but they control vast amounts of wealth and power in the US. They exercise enormous control throughout society. Most of their wealth is inherited.

(3) Despite social myths to the contrary, the best predictor of future wealth is the family into which you are born. Each year, the business magazine Forbes publishes a list of the "Forbes 400"- the four hundred wealthiest families and individuals in the country. Of all the wealth represented on the Forbes 400 list, more than half is inherited. Those on the list who could be called "self-made" were not typically of modest origins; most inherited significant assets. Those upper class with newly acquired wealth is known as the nouveau riche. Although they may have vast amounts of money, they are often not accepted into "old rich" circles.

(4) The upper middle class includes those with high incomes and high social prestige. They tend to be well-educated professionals or business executives. Their earnings can be quite high, indeed - successful business executives can earn millions of dollars a year. It is difficult to estimate exactly how many people fall into this group because of the difficulty of drawing lines between the upper, upper middle and middle class. Indeed, the upper middle is often thought of as "middle class" because their lifestyle sets the standard to which many aspire, but this lifestyle is simply beyond the means of a majority of people in the US.

(5) The middle class is hard to define; in part, being "middle class" is more than just economic position. By far the majority of Americans identify themselves as middle class even though they vary widely in life style and in resources at their disposal. But the idea that the US is an open -class system leads many to think that the majority have a middle - class lifestyle because, in general, people tend not to want to recognize class distinctions in the US. Thus, the middle class have a tenuous hold on this class position.

(6) In the hierarchy of social class, the lower middle class includes workers in the skilled trades and low- income bureaucratic workers, many of whom may actually define themselves as middle -class. Examples are blue -collar workers (those skilled traders who do manual labour) and many service workers, such as secretaries, hairdressers, waitresses, police, and fire fighters. Medium to low income, education, and occupational prestige define the lower middle class relative to the class groups above it. The term "lower" in this class designation refers to the relative position of the group in the status system, but if it has an overcritical sound to many people, especially to people who are members of this class.

(7) The lower class is composed primarily of the displaced poor. People in this class have little formal education and

are often unemployed or working in minimum-wage jobs. The working poor constitute a large portion of those who

are poor. A forty -percent of the poor works; 10 percent works year round and full time -a proportion that has

generally increased over time. Recently, the concept of the underclass has been added to the lower class. The

underclass includes those who have been left behind by contemporary economic developments. Rejected from

economic system, those in the underclass may become dependent on public assistance or illegal activities.
