Questions 1-5
Suggested approach
• Read the task rubric carefully. You have to
decide which heading best fits each paragraph
in the passage.
• Read paragraph A and look at the example.
• Skim through the list of paragraph headings to
familiarise yourself with them.
• Read paragraph B and underline parts that are
relevant to the main focus of the paragraph.
• Paragraph B begins “On the horizon”
suggesting that it is going to discuss a future
use of glass. It goes on to discuss fibre optics
and how they could be used in the future to
improve optical instruments. Phrases such as
“could function hundreds of times faster” and
“the surge in fibre optic use” all indicate that
this paragraph is about “Exciting innovations in
fibre optics”. So
viii is the heading for
paragraph B.
• Go on to paragraph C.
• If you think there is more than one possible
heading for a paragraph, re-read the paragraph
and try to decide which heading is most
appropriate.
• If you cannot decide go on to the next
paragraph — you can come back to any
questions that you can’t do, later.
