READING
Read the following text and answer T (true) or F (false) for each of
the statements below.
A road safety organization in Australia has created a mock-up of the
perfect body needed to survive a car crash. Australia's Transport Accident
Commission (TAC) has called its human-looking creation 'Graham'. TAC
commissioned a sculpture of Graham and released a video to educate
road users about road safety and how serious some accidents might be.
Although Graham looks like a human, he is somewhat grotesque in parts
and resembles a character from a horror movie. The BBC says: "He has a
head shaped like a rock, feet that look like tree roots and a chest like a
pig." A spokesperson from TAC said Graham was designed to show how
fragile and vulnerable the human body is when involved in a vehicle
collision on the roads, especially when cars go over the speed limits.
TAC commissioned celebrated artist Patricia Piccinini to create the
artwork for Graham. She collaborated with a trauma surgeon and a road
crash investigation expert to get the right look and build for Graham. She
gave Graham a big head, a wider neck, an inflatable chest that acts like
airbags, and hoof-like legs that allow Graham to jump out of dangerous
situations. TAC chief executive Joe Calafiore commented on why his
organization commissioned Graham as an educational tool. He said:
"Cars have evolved a lot faster than humans and Graham helps us
understand why we need to improve every aspect of our roads system to
protect ourselves from our own mistakes."
