Exercise 84
The correct answer was 'A'. I'll try to explain why in a bit more detail:
When choosing the title of a passage, we need to think about the overall purpose or
message of the text. The passage in this case tells us about a 3D replica of a cathedral.
Benefits are mentioned, but only in relation to this building and other similar building /
engineering work. The benefits of 3D printing in general are not given: We don't learn about
any other uses of 3D printing - we only learn about the cathedral replica, and possible
similar applications.
I think it would be strange to have a title that doesn't in some way mention the cathedral
replica or using 3D prinitng to replicate buildings.
The original article was all about 3D printing old buildings, not 3D printing's general
benefits. Here's a link to the article:
Exercise 85
1. (more) liberal values
2. (increasingly) accessible to
3. students
Exercise 86
A = 2
(increase in work-related stress = stress related claims by employees has doubled)
B = 4
(This paragraph is about the effects/symptoms of stress, NOT the causes)
Exercise 87
1. False
(wind speed, not force)
2. Not given
(no information about whether officers demanded the scale)
3. True
(related qualitative wind conditions to effects on the sails)
4. Not given
(no information about whether it is the predominant scale today)
Exercise 88
1. NO
(perform many tasks at once = opposite of = focus on one thing at a time)
2. YES
(exposure to an abundance of data = buries us in data coming at us from every which way)
3. YES
(Multi-taking may reduce human performance = If we want to be more productive... the
science suggests that we should tame the multi-tasking)
