SINGAPORE
(By Gareth Huw Davies, The Mail on Sunday, 30th November 2008)

Practice Test 1
1.

The Singapore Flyer, the world’s tallest observation wheel, is one of Asia’s most conspicuous tourist attractions. From the top,
541ft up, you feel you are looking down from halfway up a mountain, with fine views out over Marina Bay and across to
Malaysia. The wheel, at 492ft in diameter, beats the London Eye by more than 40ft. The Flyer stands atop a three-storey termi-
nal, making it higher still. One stately circuit in a bus-sized capsule - with UV protection in the glass shielding passengers from
the hot sun - takes 30 minutes. At £10.90 a go (children £7.60), it undercuts many other observation wheels.

2.
The Singapore Grand Prix, staged for the first time in September through the city’s streets, is quite unlike any other. It’s run at
night. The 3.1-mile circuit is flooded with powerful lighting to replicate daylight. And this is no urban dawdle - the cars race flat-
out , at 200mph, along Raffles Boulevard and make an impressive zip across the century-old Anderson Bridge. There are seats
for only 80,000 spectators, so you must book early for next year’s race. The second practice and the qualifying session, on the
two previous days, also take place after dark, and there’s a grandstand view from the Singapore Flyer.

3.
There is so much to see in Singapore - temples, wow-factor modern buildings, stately Victorian architecture, the bustling harbour
and the markets - that it’s hard to know where to start. Cabbies will show you around any city the world over, but how do you
tell a dud from the best guides in town? In 2004, Singapore pioneered the Taxi Tourist Guide scheme, guaranteeing a trained
guide who knows his city and can explain it in good English. He will also be a good driver and a safe chaperone. Leave the driver
to create an itinerary or tell him where you want to go. You are free to step out to see what you please. They also do
highlights-only tours for transit passengers with little time, with an airport pick-up and drop-off. Tours cost from £13 an hour.

4.

No hotel on Earth attracts more visitors who aren’t actually staying there than Raffles. Opened in 1887 by the Sarkie brothers
and named after the British colony’s founder, Sir Stamford Raffles, it became the top stop for celebrities travelling out east,
from Kipling and Chaplin to Noel Coward. Now it is back to its best, with its grand arches, moulded ceilings with gently spinning
fans, teak walls and oriental carpets on marble floors refreshed and restored. Dress your best, and call in for that sacred fixture,
high tea in the Tiffin Room (about £20, best to book - ring 00 65 6337 1886). Or launch your evening in the Writers’ Bar or the
Long Bar with a Singapore Sling, the legendary cocktail made with cherry brandy and multiple spirits, invented here in 1915 by
bartender Ngiam Tong Boon. Ask them to mix it for you - don’t accept one ready-made.

5.

Singapore is the unofficial food capital of Asia. It offers a fabulous range of cuisines -Indian, Korean, Japanese, Vietnamese,
Chinese and Malay - that would keep the United Nations catering manager happy. Find some of the most authentic Singapore
street cuisine in the hawker centres, such as Lau Pa Sat Market and the Newton Hawker Centre, with their dizzying choice of
food and drink stalls under one roof. There’s a huge choice of restaurants, many of them in hotels. An up-and-coming dining-out
district is the Rochester Park heritage area, where whitewashed colonial houses have been turned into high-end restaurants,
including Graze, Min Jiang and One Rochester. Take a stroll pre- or post-dinner on tree-lined paths through grassy lawns.

Practice Test 1

South West of England.

Many a good pub and restaurant has been created when pub-restaurant chains locate and buy old houses and buildings with char-
acter and turn them into very pleasant places for eating and partaking of liquid refreshment! “The Bishops Tavern” is such a place.

Built in Victorian times, with stone frontage and high internal ceilings, the owners have tastefully decorated the interior through-
out, and with reasonable prices have provided patrons with warm cosy and indeed elegant meeting place.

No doubt men of the cloth, and certainly Bishops, would be welcome! There are easy parking facilities to be found and the man-
ager and his staff are at your disposal at all times.

“The Bishops Tavern” is a “free house” and boasts a varied selection of famous British real ales plus foreign beers and their “all-
day” English breakfasts are guaranteed to set you up very well indeed whether on the way to the office in the morning or as
the menu says, at any time! The wine list is also extraordinary!

Next time in town, visit the “The Bishops Tavern”.

Read the text below and then answer the questions on the following page.

These days thousands of people own digital cameras. The old type cameras which take film are
still being used of course; it is the classic way. Yes it’s great fun to take photographs using film
of usually 24 or 36 exposures, take out the film, deliver it to your local photographic shop or

Practice Test 1
even to a big chain store and then wait with baked breath for your “snaps”!! You could have
been on holiday, it could have been your birthday party, you could have taken photos at a big
match or a trip to the zoo and so on.

But in this age of technology, with the ever increasing use of personal computers, more and more people are buy-
ing digital cameras. There is a bewildering choice of cameras on the market, offered by famous names in the world
of technology.

The first-time owner of a digital camera will need to understand that a memory card is inserted into the camera
which can hold up to 1000 or more images depending on the gigabytes available. The images can be transferred
into your PC and the card can be used again. It is a very convenient method of taking photos and it is indeed excit-
ing at first for the uninitiated! It then becomes a matter of routine.

But what about Memory cards? How are they used? When installing a memory card in a camera, make sure that
the camera is turned off. You should slide the memory card slot cover in the direction indicated, usually by an arrow,
to open it. You then push the memory card in until it clicks into place. It is usually advised that no metal objects
should touch the terminals on the back of the card. Indeed, the photographer should also not touch these termi-
nals. When you want to take out the card, push it until it clicks and then release it.

Usually a green light indicates that the camera is writing, reading, erasing, or transmitting an image to or from the
memory card. Memory cards are high precision electronic devices. Do not bend them, apply force to them, or sub-
ject them to shocks or vibration. Dirt, water, or foreign objects should not be allowed to contact the terminals on
the back of the card. If you wish to write on the card, use a felt tip pen. Because of the potential to damage mem-
ory cards, which are very sensitive, the creation of back up copies of important data is recommended. Be careful
when changing temperature zones. Condensation can lead to malfunction in the card. Keep in a sealed plastic bag
to avoid any unwelcome surprise! Be careful not to store memory cards in dusty or sandy locations, and in loca-
tions subject to high humidity or temperature.

Enjoy your digital photographs.

56. The text is about 59. According to the text what does it maintain?
A. buying a camera That ….
B. disadvantages of digital cameras A. memory cards are fragile
C. taking digital photographs B. memory cards are difficult to use
D. the technological age C. memory cards are obsolete
