LIVING AND LEARNING ON AN ISLAND

Children living on remote islands and in other areas (34) _ the population is very small often end up being educated in very small schools, sometimes with no more than fifty students Herm, (35) , is one of the smallest of Britain's Channel Islands It has a school that has fewer than ten pupils

of primary school age, and a teacher who is (36) to come over from the larger island of Guernsey every day Children over the age of ten ought to live, as well as study, at a secondary school on Guernsey, even though many would prefer to live at home

Small schools such as Herm are often threatened with closure - because compared to bigger schools, they are expensive to (37) When schools close, the teachers lose their jobs and pupils are sent to (38) school which is often far away This often turns out to be disruptive for the pupils’ education

(Adapted from Oxford Exam Trainer Helen Weale)

Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, or D on your answer sheet to indicate the correct answer to each of the questions from 39 to 42

Thomas Edison is famous for inventing the light bulb But not many people know that in the 1920s he

invented the first employment test to recruit staff for his research laboratory It had questions in it like,

‘Who killed President Lincoln?’ and ‘Where is the Sargasso Sea?’ It was difficult to answer the questions and only a few people managed to pass the test Nowadays we would ask: Is it really necessary to know things like this if you want to work for an inventor?

Now, a hundred years later, employment tests are still used by companies, but are very different in what they test The way that companies recruit new staff has also changed One recent trend in recruitment

is ‘gamification’ Gamification, in general, means using characteristics of games (e.g scoring points, competing with others and rules of play) to add some fun to situations that are usually more serious One

of the first companies which has used gamification to recruit new staff is the cosmetics company, L'Oréal

L'Oréal created an online computer game called Reveal, where you try to solve real-life problems in a

virtual environment The best players were invited for an interview

Another company, the international hotel group Marriott, developed a Facebook game, My Marriott Hotel TM to attract young people to a career in the hotel industry In the game, players managed a virtual

hotel kitchen The game could be played in English, Spanish, French, Arabic and Mandarin It was designed to recruit staff in markets outside the USA The game was a great success and brought thousands

of people to the Marriott Facebook career page Experts believe gamification is likely to become so common in recruitment that perhaps we should all train as games designers!

(Adapted from Navigate by Caroline Krantz and Julie Norton)

Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, or D on your answer sheet to indicate the correct answer to each of the questions from 44 to 50

Something the size of a postage stamp, costing just a penny a piece, could be a medical breakthrough that will save millions of lives According to biotechnology scientist Hayat Sindi, this tiny piece of paper has the same power as an entire diagnostic laboratory ‘My mission is to find simple, inexpensive ways

to monitor health,’ Sindi says She believes technology pioneered by a team at Harvard University will

make it possible, and she co-founded the charity ‘Diagnostics For All’ to produce and distribute the

innovation

In the developing world, powerful drugs are used to combat diseases like HIV/AIDS, tuberculosis and hepatitis But these medicines can cause liver damage In developed countries, doctors monitor liver function frequently and change the medication if they detect problems But in isolated, rural corners of the world, health monitoring simply doesn’t exist The tragic result is that millions of people are dying

from the same drugs intended to save them The small piece of paper is a low-tech tool which detects

disease by analysing bodily fluids Positive results, which show up in less than a minute, are indicated by

a change in colour on the paper

Sindi’s determination to solve daunting problems should come as no surprise Despite coming from a

modest background, never travelling outside Saudi Arabia or speaking a word of English, she moved to England to attend university Alone, homesick, and worried that she would fail and dishonour her family, she learned English by watching BBC news She studied up to 20 hours a day for college entrance exams Against the odds, she became the first Saudi woman to study biotechnology at Cambridge University She went on to get a PhD and become a visiting scholar at Harvard University

Sindi’s passion and accomplishments have made her a role model for young women across the Middle East, an inspiration to a new generation ‘I want all women to believe in themselves and know they can transform society When I lecture at schools, the first thing I ask children is to draw a picture of a scientist 99.9% of them draw an old bald man with glasses When I tell them I’m a scientist, they look so surprised.’

A new foundation that she has launched gives guidance and money to encourage young women who attend university abroad to bring their skills back to their homelands

(Adapted from Life by Helen Stephenson, John Hughes, and Paul Dummett)
