Exmple: z Whether suh fers eome relity, there is no denying tht there hs een drmti inrese in the numer of people ehind rs. Mrk your nswer on the Answer Sheet S d z d e f g h Conditions in prison re lwys n issue. It my e tht ourts elieve these people hve run out of rod nd prison is now inevitle for them. On loser look, it is possile to identify speifi events, whih hve resulted in hrdened ttitude to rime. Responding to the Prison Reform Trust report, the government hs lunhed five yer review of British jils. Suh groups, like the Prison Reform Trust, rgue tht prison is eing used too redily. The numer of people found guilty y the ourts hs remined omprtively stti over the pst thirteen yers. Whih egs the question: just wht hve these people done to lnd in prison? With pledge to e tough on rime, tough on the uses of rime, the entre left hs ensured tht the prison popultion ontinues to rise. tel English C Mok Exmintion

7 Reding Comprehension UK Prison Reform Trust ritiises British penl system Suh is the ntionl propensity for sending people to jil, tht the British prison system ould e entirely full y the summer, the UK Prison Reform Trust wrns. 0 In Jnury 993 when the prison popultion egn rising there were,56 in jil in Englnd nd Wles. The urrent popultion is 77,00: n inrese of 5%. Written Exmintion A lerly importnt spet is the wy rime is pereived. Aording to reserh undertken y the Interntionl Centre for Prison Studies in London, politil nd medi dete out how to del with rime hs eome lot less tolernt nd more punitive in reent yers. And this, sys the study, hs led to key hnges in legisltion nd prtie. The murder of the toddler Jmes Bulger y two older oys in Ferury 993 ws followed y steep rise in the numer of prison inmtes. Similrly, studies suggest tht the existing reord popultion of 77,77, rehed in Otoer 005, ws prtly the result of hrsher sentening fter the 7 July omings. When you get high-profile nd very disturing ses of tht kind you n get distorted retion nd punishment levels n rise, sys Juliet Lyon, diretor of the Prison Reform Trust. Politil events hve lso plyed key prt in the hnges. While the ruling Conservtives entered 993 with the slogn Prison Works, the new Lour leder, Tony Blir, ws keen to reposition his prty s trditionlly soft pproh to rime. By the time Lour me to power four yers lter, the prison popultion hd inresed to more thn 60,000 rise of out 5% in four yers. 3 By 007 ten yers fter their first eletion vitory the popultion is expeted to reh 0,00. Aording to the Prison Reform Trust the tougher line on rime is not linked to n inrese in offenes. It lso reports tht there hs not een n inrese in the numer of serious rimes. Wht hs hppened, the hrity suggests, is tht mny people whose offenes would not hve ttrted ustodil sentene in the pst re now eing sent to prison. And for those onvited of serious offenes, sentenes re getting longer. Despite the stle rime levels, ftor other thn the politil limte whih my hve ontriuted is hnge in the pttern of offending, prtiulrly where drugs re involved. There re now more people ppering efore the ourts with long strings of onvitions who hve filed to omply with non-ustodil sentenes. 5 The immedite question is wht hppens next should more prisons e uilt, or the wy they re used hnged? 6 This hs een welomed y mpigners, ut for the moment the prison popultion ontinues to rise. tel English C Mok Exmintion

8 6 Written Exmintion Reding Comprehension (Prt ) Reding Comprehension Red the following text. In whih prt of the text n you find the informtion 7 6? There is only one orret nswer for eh item. Eh prt of the text my ontin more thn one of the piees of informtion. Mrk your nswers on the Answer Sheet S3 items 7 6. Exmple: 0 Ides nnot e onsidered properly. Mrk your nswer on the Answer Sheet S3: 0 d e f 0 In whih prt of the text does it sy tht? I hve no fith in the shool system. I m frid shools might destroy trditionl vlues. Pedgogil priniples re losing out. Tehers nd prents often prevent progress in shool development. Tehers re often more interested in themselves thn in the pupils. The British seem to prefer less demorti ledership in shools. Motivtion for development n hnge within one shool t different times. The edution system delegtes responsiility for lerning. The legisltion relting to shools needs modifitions. The size of the shool n lso hve n effet on how well hildren lern. tel English C Mok Exmintion

9 Reding Comprehension Hs our Edution System Filed? Different voies on the issue We hope to home-shool our hildren. There is too muh wrong with shooling in the stte nd privte edution system to onsider using shools unless they eome solutely neessry for ysitting purposes. Aprt from the usul good shools (i.e. ones with white pupils from good homes) these would e my resons: The whole system is onerned with pssing meningless exms, whih re not intended to test demi exellene, ut to enle ivil servnt to tik off some oxes to show stndrds re improving. All shools re osessed with exm results to the detriment of ny enjoyment of lerning. Privte shools seem like susge ftories. A syllus tht in sujets suh s history nd soil understnding (i.e. rism nd the like) is positively nti-british indeed hs the im of derinting nd indotrinting our hildren. I wnt my hildren to know out who they re nd how they me to e wht they re; not exerises in white guilt suh s slvery. Wht is needed is reful mpign to onvine first tehers, nd don t underestimte the resistne you would find here, nd prents other thn those trying to further the interest of their own hildren t the shool. I tully tried this t my lst shool nd mde it the top priority for the shool following suessful OFSTED inspetion ut the pthy nd resistne I met ws onsiderly greter thn you would hve predited in shool with good reltionships etween it nd the ommunity. Development plns nnot ever work if they revel to interested prties nything whih thretens the urrent sttus. Quite frnkly if you tke heed of development plnning you ve either got no mition, or like most shools you ll onstntly e updting the loody thing to keep up with exellent ides produed y the ommunity of tehers, prents nd lerners. One teher t our shool sserted in stff meeting tht he didn t wnt to e onsulted out the wy forwrd ut just told wht to do. Wht I would dvote is to ply to the strengths of the stff who hve ides for improvement nd the energy to implement them. In some yers there ren t mny of those nd other yers they nd their ides ome in numers. You n hve development pln for the shool ut my test is not whether you hve development pln ut whether your shool is developing or not. And whether ll the tehers re with you usully depends on wht is in the pln. For instne suppose prt of the pln ws to mlgmte two deprtments nd eventully hnge the struture would you expet to e le to win over the stff involved neessrily? People rrely vote for their own demise. Suppose you deided tht you ould perfetly well omplish wht ws needed y employing fewer tehers nd more lssroom ssistnts, would you expet to reeive pprovl from tehers not to mention their unions? d The rel diffiulty lies in the nture of our essentilly non-ollortive strutures whih re imposed on our shools y lw. Suppose new shool is reted. All is possile, isn t it? A ollortive proess of development nd ownership suh s you desrie ould e dopted y ll the edution professionls involved, ouldn t it? No, it ouldn t (in Englnd), euse the first ppointment is lwys the hed teher who is given, y lw, speil ledership nd responsiility position whih n t e shred. It doesn t hve to e tht wy of ourse ut for ollortive style to develop in shool hed teher in Englnd hs first to gree it will hppen. Wht the government would hve to do is mke it possile for the ollortive development of shool to run hnd-in-hnd with shred responsiility. Tht would e revolutionry nd need hnges to the lw whih proly wouldn t get populr pprovl. We tully prefer dittoril Churhillin styles of ledership in this ountry even when they ren t effetive. e As someone who hs tried to persude her prents to edute her t home (nd filed), I n sy for ertin tht the urrent stte edution system hs filed me. Br few deent tehers perhps 3 or out of out sujets, I find it ll too esy nd tht I m just wsting my time. They tully do set us tests t my high shool, ut it s still insuffiient s the mjority of the tehers fil to disipline. Being honest, I mostly teh myself the stuff I need to know deent ooks tht ren t just for your syllus nd perseverne re ruil. English I find instntly esy so I just hve to red lot nd gin more knowledge tht wy; mths nd siene my dd goes through with me s he finds the tehing insuffiient nd my mum helps me with history nd things t home. I m in yer 0 now. Yer ws OK in some respets, ut still mostly lern it yourself yer... nd yer 7, I my s well hve een on holidy! One of the min prolems I found is tht I me from relly good, smll stte primry shool to huge, quite wful high shool. Yer 9 merely reiterted wht I d lredy een tught, nd it ws huge shok for me to relise how little some people knew. 7 Written Exmintion tel English C Mok Exmintion

Mrk your nswers on the Answer Sheet S3 items 7. Exmple: 0 The writer drinks lot of te. Mrk your nswer on the Answer Sheet S3: Te ws first onsumed minly for helth resons.

But it ws not lwys so; te ws one luxury produt tht only the rih ould fford nd t one time ws even elieved to e d for your helth. It ws over the ourse of severl hundred yers tht te gined its ple s our ntionl drink, nd only reltively reently tht its potentil helth enefits hve een reognised. 9 Written Exmintion Te first eme estlished in Britin through the influene of foreign priness, Ctherine of Brgnz, the wife of King Chrles II. A lover of te sine her hildhood in Portugl, she rought te-drinking to the English ourt, nd set trend for the everge mong the ristory of Englnd in the seventeenth entury. The fshion soon spred to the middle lsses, nd it eme populr drink t the London offee houses where welthy men met to do usiness nd disuss the events of the dy. However, the te eing drunk in these estlishments would proly e onsidered undrinkle now. Between 660 nd 69, te sold in offee houses ws txed in liquid form. The whole of the dy s te would therefore e rewed in the morning, txed y visiting tx offier, nd then kept in rrels nd reheted s neessry throughout the rest of the dy. So visitor to the offee house in the lte fternoon would e drinking te tht hd een mde hours efore in the erly morning: something unthinkle to ny self-respeting fé owner tody! Fortuntely, the system of txtion ws ltered in 69, so tht te egn to e txed y the lef rther thn s liquid. Some offee houses lso sold te in loose lef form so tht it ould e rewed t home. This ment tht it ould lso e enjoyed y women, who were not welome visitors to offee houses. As it ws reltively expensive, tedrinking in the home ws lrgely onfined to welthier households, where women would gther for te prties. Suh prty ws refined soil osion, involving the use of delite hin pots nd ups, silver te kettles nd elegntly rved te jrs nd te tles. All the equipment would e set up y the servnts, ut it ws the hostess who rewed the te. She ws ided y servnt witing on hnd to ring hot wter when needed. She then served the te to her guests in pretty, little ups. Both green nd lk tes were populr, oth of whih were preferred without milk. Sugr, though, despite its high ost t the time, ws frequently dded. We n imgine then tht while seventeenth entury men were t the offee houses drinking te nd exhnging gossip, their wives gthered t one nother s homes to do extly the sme thing just in more sophistited tmosphere! tel English C Mok Exmintion

12 0 Written Exmintion Reding Comprehension (Prt ) Reding Comprehension Red the following text. On the following pge you will find four summries d. Whih is the est summry of the text? There is only one orret nswer. Mrk your nswer on the Answer Sheet S3 item 5. The truth, the whole truth nd nothing ut the truth Applying for jo? When you write up your CV, e reful. Be very reful. Employers re eginning to use omputers to sn CVs to ensure they tell the truth, the whole truth nd nothing ut the truth. The prolem is tht employers rrely hve the time or the resoures to hek every detil of every pplint s CV, espeilly if they re reruiting lrge numers of stff for prtiulr projet. Lying on CVs is eoming lrmingly ommon, ording to Jo Bukinghm, the diretor of pre-employment sreening for Control Risks Group. One in four CVs tells lies, some distort dtes to hide reer gps or provide flse identity informtion to hide previous (nd emrrssing) redit history, she sys. To dd to the prolem, there re people operting on the high street tody who will gldly teh ny pplint how to lie in n interview nd how to dotor CV. Hedhunters re the worst offenders. 3 The onsequenes of employing someone who hs lied on their CV n e grievous, Jo Bukinghm sys. Nerly three qurters of fruds re ommitted y employees who work for the vitimised firms, Jo Bukinghm sys. Every employer must keep rememering tht person who hs suessfully lied one to get jo will often indeed, proly lie gin. A dishonest reruit is more suseptile to riery or orruption. Ft-heking genies re now exploiting dvned omputer tehnology to help, prtly to redue the ost ut lso euse omputers do not skip heks euse they re ored or wnt to go home erly. GUS susidiry Experin, for exmple, uses the We to perform the si heks. The Cndidte Verifier system, ville t llows employers to enter n pplint s detils, whereupon it utomtilly mkes vrious finnil heks. More omplex heks, suh s tking up referenes from former employers, olleges nd so on, re done y experts t Experin s lrge ontt entre, who lso reeive phone inquiries. 5 The system n then utomtilly run heks vi the Internet on the eletorl register nd ourt reords to verify whether the pplint hs een sued, is n undishrged nkrupt or hs een disqulified from eing diretor. If the employer is memer of the Credit Aount Informtion Shring servie (CAIS), the pplint s redit rting n e found s well. A simple finnil hek on osts round 6, the ost rising to out 30 for the full servie. 6 The next logil step is to get the omputer to sn inoming CVs for those simplifitions, omissions nd rzen fis. Amerin dt softwre ompny SAS hs just lunhed Text Miner, system tht n extrt mny sttements from free text suh s CVs nd hek them out. After some trining, the system is limed to e le to distinguish ngry text or omplints y ompring with historil informtion. 7 The tone of e-mils nd the ptterns of lnguge hnge when lie is eing inserted, explins Peter Dorrington, the usiness solutions mnger t SAS: If someone is trying to over up short period or periods of unemployment (euse they were sked), they will tend to drop months nd only desrie periods in jo s yers. Of ourse, it my just e tht the pplint is too lzy to look up the ext dtes. This is not neessrily frudulent, Peter Dorrington sys. tel English C Mok Exmintion

13 Reding Comprehension Hving extrted the milestones of the pplint s pprently glittering demi nd orporte reer, the system n then utomtilly hek it out. The system will lso orrelte si fts suh s whether the university ws offering tht prtiulr ourse t the time limed, nd hek up pulily ville dt suh s professionl memership lists nd whether the MBA omes from reputle usiness shool, Peter Dorrington sys. It is t this point tht mny frudulent CVs slip through the net, Peter Dorrington lims: Cheking tends to e done only t the senior levels it tends not to e done t the ol fe euse of the osts involved. Written Exmintion 9 Aprt from eletronilly yelling lir, lir, pnts on fire t pplints, the Text Miner system is ple of identifying potentilly rillint employees. The system looks t possily hundreds of CVs, so it lerns to look for ndidtes with the ttriutes of suess. There is n element of eing le to mth ndidtes ginst the jo desription, sed y ttriute nd y nlysing ptterns of skill rther thn simply extrting keywords, Peter Dorrington sys. Sy you re looking for n IT diretor. Some of the things tht ome out of previous CVs just qulify them for the jo, ut we n look for ttriutes of suess. For exmple, mngement skills. 0 Where employers regulrly ssess mngers, they ould ompre CVs with the results of pst ssessments to look for people with the skills sets nd tlents of previously suessful employees. Government deprtments ould very esily hold the results of the pprisl proess to get piture of wht mkes suessful employee, he sys. If you find the ide of omputer oming your CV for fis diststeful, try this one: mny firms re seriously ontemplting putting pplints through lie-detetor tests. The fmilir moving pens of the polygrph produe meningless sriles tht must e interpreted y highly skilled nd expensive tehniins, whih rules it out for most employers outside the seurity servies. The Myo Clini in the US hs reently nnouned new method whih it lims is urte enough to detet ltnt lies. Aording to reserhers there, when telling porky pie the stress on the rin uses smll ut detetle flow of wrm lood to the skin round the eyes. This fint lush of shme nnot e seen y the nked eye ut n e piked up y therml imging mer. Unfortuntely, the method is sid to pik up only 5 per ent of lies, nd to unfirly point the finger t 0 per ent of entirely truthful sttements. 3 Even if the method is effetive, it is lerly not good enough to rejet jo pplint on its own. But the rsenl of omputer equipment ville to employers is going to mke lying to get jo muh more diffiult in the future. tel English C Mok Exmintion

14 Written Exmintion Summries: Reding Comprehension As result of inresing inuries nd omissions in CVs, employers, who re often under time pressure, re strting to hek douments with the id of omputers, espeilly s pplints n now enlist the help of speilist dvisors. To prevent the potentil risk in hiring suh pplints, firms now ommission genies whih use sophistited IT to hek finnil, legl nd demi dt. Computer tehnology n hek CVs for inurte or inomplete dt on the sis of the lnguge used in pplitions. This lso hs the dvntge tht every pplition n e heked regrdless of the level of the post. In ddition, the omputer lso highlights positive fetures in CV nd n identify suessful employees. Suh new fetures of sreening equipment re however less ttrtive s they re designed to hek people s physil ehviour. Although these systems re not ompletely fool-proof, future jo pplints will e sreened more refully. d More nd more jo pplints go to professionl genies to lern how to produe perfet CVs nd so ompnies re heking pplitions more refully s people who get jo on suh sis re more likely to dmge the ompny y riery or orruption. 5% of ll pplints flsify their CV y, for exmple, hnging dtes or y using flse informtion euse they hve hd prolems with nks. Firms would like to rry out omprehensive heks ut it is rrely possile. Softwre ville on the internet n e used to hek for numer of inuries suh s omissions of informtion out dismissls. This is done, for exmple, y sifting through ftul informtion offered pulily on the net y edutionl institutions or professionl ssoitions. They lso nlyse the lnguge used y pplints when putting the CV together. More dvned tehnology even uses physil retion tehniques ut these re not ompletely relile. Nevertheless pplints should e inresingly reful. Computers hve mny uses nowdys ut one inresing pplition is in onnetion with filtering out inurte CVs. Wheres personnel offiers my miss signifint omissions whether through lk of time or simply euse they deide not to hek pplitions, omputer is effiient nd relile. Computers hek for wrong informtion, missing informtion or personl prolems the pplints prefer not to mention y heking ll kinds of reords on the internet. In prtiulr they hek the kind of lnguge used in the CV, s pplints with wrong or missing informtion tend to use typil kind of indiret lnguge. In view of these new tehnil developments people pplying for jos must e wre of the risks. There is now wide rnge of tehnology ville on the mrket to help employers del with one of the iggest prolems in the humn resoures setor: how to filter out jo pplints who re eonomil with the truth out reers or redit when sumitting CVs. Mny ompnies like SAS hve developed numer of tehniques suh s internet heks on finnil, legl nd ollege reords or lnguge nlyses for ll new ppointments. They re lso onsidering the use of more sensitive proedures suh s physil response tehniques using therml imging, even though these re not yet 00% urte. The im of ll these endevours is to ensure tht ll pplints re properly pprised thus voiding the potentil risks involved in employing potentilly untruthful people suh s frud or riery.
