The inspector opened the fridge, removed the previous day’s leftovers and flung them into the microwave. Donning a grey suit with a blue shirt and garish tie, he hoped he had succeeded in creating a cross between ‘white collar’ and shady. Afterwards, he sat on the veranda and sipped a coffee while skimming through the newspaper. Inside, his mobile phone started to ring persistently – it was Summers, who simply said, “The beach bar. Let’s meet there.” Before leaving, he looked for a pair of glasses with plain lenses that he thought might add something to his attempts at camouflage. They were nowhere to be found. Complaining to himself about the general state of disorder, he eventually extracted them from a pair of socks. Grammar item Preposition ONE example from text at 36. Phrasal verb 37.

PAPER 2 - LANGUAGE AWARENESS SECTION 6: READING COMPREHENSION _____ / 20 POINTS For each of the texts below, read text and answer the questions which follow. Text 1 Snowboarding Many believe that free style snowboarding owes much to skateboarding but it actually bears a closer resemblance to inline skating. Regardless of this, most agree that equipping yourself appropriately is ‘a must’. A protective kit is highly recommended due to the potentially dangerous nature of the activity. Safety gear should include wrist guards, padded pants and a helmet. Goggles are used by most people and are crucial on bright days to prevent snow blindness. They also prevent temporary vision loss – snow getting in the eyes can cause collisions with obstacles like trees and with other skiers. Padding can be useful on other body parts like the knees and spine. 46.
