from the Lake District National Park to refill reservoirs drained by drought. United Utilities has submitted its proposals to take water from two lakes, Windermere and Ullswater, to public scrutiny because of concerns about the potential damage to wildlife Anglers are concerned that spawning sites for salmon and trout could dry out if water is drained from the rivers that flow from the lakes. But the utilities company insists that removing and treating the extra water will not hurt local flora and fauna. The hearing, headed by the government inspector, Stuart Nixon, is being held in the Cumbrian town of Windermere and will last for two days. A final decision is expected to be taken later this month by Margaret Beckett, the Environment Secretary United Utilities insists that the drought orders are necessary to prevent the further depletion of water from two of its reservoirs in the Lake District, Haweswater and Thirlmere. Because of the unusually dry summer this year, Haweswater has only 53 per cent of its capacity compared with 68 percent at the same time last year. Thirlmere has just 47 percent, whereas last year it had 79 percent If United Utilities is given the goahead, it would be able to take extra water from the Windermere and Ullswater rivers – Leven and Eamont respectively – this winter, rather than having to take emergency measures next year Water from Ullswater would be piped into Haweswater reservoir; water from Windermere would enter the local supply, and prevent further depletion of Thirlmere. Water supplies would reach two million people in Manchester, Lancashire, south Cumbria and parts of Cheshire Cumbria Wildlife Trust said taking extra water could pose problems for wildlife if not properly managed. But a spokesman said it was not opposing United Utilities' plans because it was better for water to be drained in the wet winter months rather than in the summer. ‘If they don’t have to do it now, they will have to do it in April,’ the spokesman said. Dickon Knight, the agent for the landowner Holker Estates, said the proposed minimum flows on the river Leven would harm efforts to protect salmon stocks. Alistair Maltby, the manager of the Eden Rivers Trust, said taking water from the rivers during the winter was the best approach but urged United Utilities to mend leaks in its pipes in the long run. Gary Dixon, customer service manager at United Utilities, said, ‘We can’t predict what supplies will be like over the winter. Normally this is when our reservoirs would refill but if the low rainfall continues we need to start planning ahead for next summer. Taking action now will have a lower impact on the river environment than during the spring.’ The company said the deluge of rain in recent weeks was helping to top up the reservoirs. John Carberry, a spokesman, said, ‘There is no crisis and no panic, but we are looking ahead for next year. There is a potential impact on the environment which is why we are seeking permission to do what we want to do.’ The Environment Agency said it would work with the utility company to ensure any damage to fish stocks was kept to a minimum Page of 11 pages 66. According to the opening paragraph, the controversy arose due to A. a proposed scheme to top up water supplies B. excessive water in local lakes C. civilians protesting over a threat to the environment D. a possibility that reservoirs could be contaminated 67. Who does the outcome of the proposal ultimately rest with? A. the area’s fishermen B. a utilities company C. Margaret Beckett D. Stuart Nixon 68. What have high temperatures resulted in? A. several bodies of water in the Lake District completely drying up B. United Utilities wanting to take certain measures C. two lakes being left with less than 50% of their water D. a large decrease in profits for United Utilities Page of 11 pages 69 The word “go-ahead” in paragraph is closest in meaning to A. leave B. consensus C. authorization D. permit 70. If the plan is implemented, _ A. it will inevitably avert a national crisis B. its impact will be felt nationwide C. it could cause irreversible damage D. it should preferably be done in winter 71. Which of the following statements is NOT true, according to the passage? A. The water depletion rate of all reservoirs is not the same B. Wildlife might be affected by excessive water taking C. It’s inevitable that water should be drained sooner or later D. Water from two rivers would be pumped into the local supply 72. What is Alistair Maltby’s opinion on refilling reservoirs? A. It will be detrimental to certain species of fish B. It’s the best solution as long as a technical problem is sorted out C. It will have a negative effect on the environment if left until spring D.

It’s only the second or third time that you get a feel for the place.’ B Also, her scientific education has taught her the value of in-depth research before she goes anywhere C Despite this, animals have been a lifelong passion for Heather D Since gaining these skills, she has become one of the world’s most respected wildlife photographers E So that’s rule one, and as Heather also remarks ‘Everyone wants to be a wildlife photographer these days but only a few will succeed.’ F Recently, in a week of waiting to photograph wildlife in Alaska, the only moment of visual excitement came when Heather and her team saw some large unidentified tracks in the mud G Aside from being a prolific lecturer, Heather has also been recognized through numerous awards and honours H While these, she also learned a lot about films developing and processing, and wrote articles about marine life which were accepted for magazines SECTION FIVE: WRITING Part Complete each of the following sentences in such a way that it means exactly the same as the sentence printed before it (5pts) 81 I only realized what I had missed when they told me about it later → Only when _ 82 The staff hated Frank’s new policies so intensely that they went on strike → So intense was _ 83 They advise her to eat less meat and fat to keep herself healthy → It is advisable that she 84 His fondness for the game increased with his proficiency → The more 85 All that stood between John and a gold medal was Jim’s greater speed → But for Part Complete the second sentence so that it has a similar meaning to the first sentence, using the word given DO NOT CHANGE THE WORD GIVEN You must use between TWO and FIVE words, including the word given (5pts) 86 ‘The race is going to start in a minute,’ said Rod ABOUT → Rod said that start 87 The effects of the gale were felt mainly along the south coast BRUNT → The south coast _ the gale 88 Thanks to the success of the concert, the singer was offered a recording LED contract → The success of the concert _ offered a recording LENGTHS contract 89 Every student will get good marks to express their gratitude towards teachers → Every student _ to express their gratitude towards teachers Page of 11 pages 90 There are several categories of people who don’t have to pay the tax → There are several categories of people _the tax EXEMPT Part Essay writing (10pts) While some students are content to receive a grade based on the group’s combined effort, others feel that it is unfair to be graded as part of a group.
