3 Lösungen Lesen E (AHS) HT 2012/13 3 Task 1: A Story from the Annals of Zan Key 0 Q1 Q2 Q3 Q4 Q5 Q6 Q7 D B A D B C C A Justifications 0/D According to the text: All inhabitants of our galaxy had long before signed the Peace Pact, which committed us to non-confrontational relations with all creatures in time and space. Conflict, therefore, did not come naturally to our peoples. The correct answer is D (had agreed not to fight). A is not correct because they already had an anti-war agreement, the Peace Pact, and there is no indication that they were planning another one. B is not correct because the text does not say they did not like war, only that they were committed to not fighting. C is not correct because the text does not say anything about their ability to solve problems in other ways. Q1/B According to the text: [ ] the Velerians threatened invasion of Planet Heg justified recourse to the paragraph in the Pact that permitted aggression in the cause of self-defence if the well-being or freedom of the inhabitants of the planets in our galaxy is endangered. The correct answer is B (to protect independence). A is not correct because the text does not say anything about the possibility of the Peace Pact being changed. C is not correct because the text does not say anything about a unanimous decision being necessary if the decision to fight were taken. D is not correct because the text says that the Peace Pact permitted the Hegs and Zans to fight under certain circumstances (e.g. if their freedom were endangered). Q2/A According to the text: [ ] PlanetF [ ] had already come under Velerian rule. PlanetF s attempts to resist had proved futile in the face of the sophisticated Velerian warfare technology [ ]. As Zalot, the clever young Zan leader explained, if the Hegs proved unable to defend themselves against the Velerians, Planet Zan would be the next planet, the first of many, to come under attack. Zalot spoke at length about the necessity of supporting the Hegs: no Zans who considered themselves protectors of peace could stand by and watch as the Velerians attacked planet after planet. If Planet Heg fell to the Velerians, their rampage would proceed unhindered. The correct answer is A (other planets would suffer the same fate as PlanetF). B is not correct because PlanetF had already been invaded and taken over by the Velerians. C is not correct because there is no indication that some parts of the galaxy would be affected worse than others. The implication is that all parts would be equally badly affected. D is not correct because there is no indication that the Hegs might attack Planet Zan if the Zans did not help them.

4 Lösungen Lesen E (AHS) HT 2012/13 4 Q3/D According to the text: There was no hope of the Hegs and Zans ever being able to match the warfare technology of the Velerians, even when they combined forces. Their flightcraft and weaponry dated from the era before the Peace Pact negotiations [ ]. The correct answer is D (the Velerian army was much better equipped). A is not correct because the text says there were some Zans who had the expertise to operate the warfare technology. B is not correct because there is no indication that the Velerians knew nothing about the Peace Pact. C is not correct because the text does not say that they had been forbidden to produce weaponry. The implication is that some Zans had always been in favour of keeping their weaponry up to date as there was always the possibility of having to fight in self-defence. Q4/B According to the text: Many were sceptical, and justifiably so. At that time virtual force fields existed in theory only; they had never been put to the test and it seemed a huge risk to take [ ]. The correct answer is B (success could not be guaranteed). A is not correct because the text says that virtual force fields had never been tested before, therefore they did not know whether there was such a thing as a safe force field, let alone how long it took to make a safe one. C is not correct because they had no experience of force fields in practice and therefore could not know how likely they were to succeed or fail. D is not correct because the text says the dangers for the Hegs and Zans themselves were far from negligible, which implies that the force field presented more than a slight risk for all Hegs and Zans, not only a slight risk for those working on the force field. Q5/C According to the text: When the first Velerian flightcraft to advance on Planet Heg hit the force field, their instruments were sent spinning out of control, which gave the Hegs and Zans the opportunity to intercept and disable them, eliminating the Velerian Chief-in-Command in the process. A long and fierce battle followed [ ]. The correct answer is C (gave the Hegs and Zans an advantage). A is not correct because a long battle followed, therefore the Velerians continued attacking. B is not correct because it was not the force field that killed the leader but the subsequent action taken by the Hegs and Zans. D is not correct because there is no indication that the Hegs equipment was damaged. The Velerians equipment was damaged. Q6/C According to the text: [ ] it seemed more than once that the Velerians with their superior equipment would gain the upper hand after all. However, deprived of their leader, their morale weakened and they proved no match for the combined forces of the Hegs and Zans. Eventually they turned tail and fled. The correct answer is C (had lost the will to continue fighting). A is not correct because the text says it seemed more than once in the course of the battle that the Velerians might win. B is not correct because the text does not say anything about problems with their weapons being the reason for the Velerians fleeing. D is not correct because there is no indication that the Velerian leader was brave, nor is there any indication that the Velerians were not as brave as their leader, only that without their leader their morale weakened.

5 Lösungen Lesen E (AHS) HT 2012/13 5 Q7/A According to the text: Losses among the ranks of the Hegs and Zans were minimal and Zalot was hailed as a hero. The correct answer is A (not many Hegs and Zans had been killed). B is not correct because there is no indication that Zalot thought the victory was entirely due to him. There is an implication that Zalot s people and/or the narrator were perhaps of this opinion as the text says he was hailed as a hero. C is not correct because the text does not say whether any Hegs and Zans went missing or that their bodies were not found, only that losses were minimal. D is not correct because there is no indication that Zalot would never go to war again. Task 2: Equal pay has its price Key 0 Q8 Q9 Q10 Q11 Q12 Q13 Q14 Q15 Q16 Q17 G B L E I M A K D F H Justifications 0/G The first sentence in paragraph 1 mentions a historic turning point in the struggle for equal pay and the next sentence starts with The latest statistics [ ], thus [ ] earn 2.1 per cent more than a man of the same age is the only answer that fits the gap contextually. Therefore the correct answer is G (earn 2.1 per cent more than a man of the same age). Q8/B The first part of the sentence describes what women have achieved in terms of education and qualifications, and finishes with the idea that employers are recognizing this, hence [ ] proved that they are highly motivated, reliable and ambitious is the only option that fits the gap contextually. Therefore the correct answer is B (proved that they are highly motivated, reliable and ambitious). Q9/L The wording Women are carrying more responsibility, rising up to executive level right across a whole range of sectors implies that a consequence must follow, thus [ ] reflected in their pay packets is the only answer that fits the gap contextually. Therefore the correct answer is L (reflected in their pay packets). Q10/E The second part of the paragraph gives the example of the author who sacrificed having children for a career and then quotes statistics [ ] reveals another historic first: more women than ever in their forties one in five [ ] which indicates that the continuation must be a statistic fact, therefore are childless is the only answer that fits the gap contextually. Options A, B and H would fit the gap grammatically, but the word sadly in the preceding sentence indicates that the information in the gap must be negatively connotated. Therefore the correct answer is E (are childless).

6 Lösungen Lesen E (AHS) HT 2012/13 6 Q11/I The wording [ ] recognised that pausing to breed implies that an effect must follow. Moreover, the next sentence describes what happens when you interrupt your career for a child. Hence [ ] would stop or slow down their tortuous ascent up the career ladder is the only option that fits the gap contextually. Therefore the correct answer is I (would stop or slow down their tortuous ascent up the career ladder). Q12/M The first part of the sentence says that there are women who claim that family and career can exist alongside each other and then refers to the statistics, which implies that a contrast must follow. Thus [ ] are proof that for most female workers this remains an optimistic dream is the only option that fits the gap contextually. Therefore the correct answer is M (are proof that for most female workers this remains an optimistic dream). Q13/A The sentence begins with a small number of women who are an exception regarding their personal background and then says [ ] they are lucky enough to [ ] and ends with [ ] who accommodate their flexible working hours [ ]. This implies that a person connected with the world of work has to come before the relative pronoun. Thus have understanding bosses is the only option that fits contextually and semantically. Therefore the correct answer is A (have understanding bosses). Q14/K The preceding sentence says that the majority of bosses is still male and uninterested in women s life outside work. The next sentence then gives the consequence of this: Women must fit in, and [ ], thus [ ] get on with it is the only option that fits the gap contextually. Therefore the correct answer is K (get on with it). Q15/D The first part of the paragraph speaks about the genetic disposition of women to have children and the fact that many women these days either voluntarily or involuntarily choose not to have children, therefore [ ] means something is very wrong in our society is the only option that fits contextually. Therefore the correct answer is D (means something is very wrong in our society). Q16/F The second part of the paragraph says that women pretend they are happy with their success and position. Then it says: Maternal instincts are being [ ], so the only contextually fitting option is [ ] sacrificed for power, a comfy income and material possessions. Therefore the correct answer is F (sacrificed for power, a comfy income and material possessions). Q17/H The paragraph starts with a comparison of women in their 30s and their 20s, claiming that the former still earn less than their male counterparts, while the latter are the first who can truly [ ] have it all. This is the only option that fits the gap contextually. Therefore the correct answer is H (have it all).

This sentence confirms that the pictures provide a good source for researchers. The correct answer is True. Q18/False + one of the accepted first four words from the table above The text says: The Himalaya Changing Landscapes exhibition opened in Bonn this week as delegates gathered for the next round of UN talks aimed at delivering a global deal on tackling global warming. This means that the conference s was set up to find solutions on how to tackle global warming and not in order to promote the exhibition. The correct answer is False. Q19/True + the accepted first four words from the table above The text says: Some have formed huge glacial lakes at the foot of the glacier, threatening downstream communities in case of an outburst." This sentence confirms that some villages are at risk if lakes overflow. The correct answer is True. Q20/False + the accepted first four words from the table above The text says: But what is certain is that by promoting the conservation and restoration of mountain watersheds we can counter many of the impacts of warming trends, by creating cooler environments, saving biodiversity and protecting water supplies." This means that Mr. Byers is convinced that there are ways to tackle the effects of global warming. The correct answer is False. Q21/False + the accepted first four words from the table above The text says: The effects of climate change are dramatically illustrated at the world's third pole, socalled because the mountain range locks away the highest volume of frozen water after the north and south poles. This means that the third pole does not provide as big a water supply as the other poles. The correct answer is False. Q22/True + the accepted first four words from the table above The text says: Today, the Imja glacier, which is just 6km from Everest, continues to recede at a rate of 74m a year - the fastest rate of all the Himalayan glaciers. This sentence confirms that the Imja glacier is decreasing more rapidly than any other Himalayan glacier. The correct answer is True.

8 Lösungen Lesen E (AHS) HT 2012/13 8 Q23/False + the accepted first four words from the table above The text says: A major UN Environment Programme report last year warned that at current rates of global warming, the Himalayan glaciers could shrink from 500,000 square kilometres to 100,000 square kilometres by the 2030s - a prediction supported by the rate of retreat seen in Byers' pictures. This means that the account stated Himalayan glaciers are shrinking as rapidly as Byers pictures suggested. The correct answer is False. Q24/True + the accepted first four words from the table above The text says: If glacial meltwaters turn to a trickle, widespread droughts will threaten the 1.3 billion people that depend on water flowing in those rivers. This sentence confirms that people living along those streams could suffer from water shortage. The correct answer is True. Task 4: Antony Gormley Key 0 Q25 Q26 Q27 Q28 Q29 Q30 Q31 Q32 Q33 B D A C B A D C C B Justifications 0/B The text says: [ ] in an operation so complex that it required the involvement of the Austrian army, 15 mountain rescue teams, dozens of helicopter flights and five years of planning. The correct answer is B (needed a lot of careful preparation). A is not correct because the Austrian army was involved, but the text does not say who commissioned the installation. C is not correct because it shows Gormley s work. In addition, the text does not say whether volunteers were involved at all. D is not correct because the statues are life-sized. Q25/D The text says: The new installation, titled Horizon Field, will be unveiled later this month. The correct answer is D (will be presented to the public soon). A is not correct because the Alpine project is not over and the text does not say how realistic it is. B is not correct because the sculptures on high-rises were part of a different project in New York. C is not correct because the project by the ocean was the Edinburgh project. Q26/A The text says: The Alps project will mark the last time that Gormley uses casts of his own body in this way, he told the Observer. The correct answer is A (stop using his own image like this). B is not correct because Gormley says that he has covered the urban condition [...]. That ll do, implying that showing city-life is not his immediate concern. C is not correct because Gormley says that he has now covered the chaos of the mountains. That'll do. This implies that he is not planning another project focusing on the Alps. D is not correct because Gormley says that he has covered the endlessness of the sea, [ ]. That'll do.

9 Lösungen Lesen E (AHS) HT 2012/13 9 Q27/C The text says: It involves the figures standing in a horizontal line 2,039m above sea level at intervals ranging from 60 metres to several kilometres, depending on the topography. The correct answer is C (along a straight line across the mountains). A is not correct because the installation spans 150 sq km across the idyllic glacier-topped peaks, so it does not avoid the snow-covered mountains. B is not correct because the figures are standing at intervals ranging from 60 metres to several kilometres. D is not correct because all the figures are standing at exactly 2,039m above sea level. Q28/B The text says: The statues have 17 standing poses, each slightly different from the other. The correct answer is B (are cast in quite similar positions). A is not correct because of the figures some are approachable for skiers in the winter. Others are unapproachable. C is not correct because the figures are placed on particularly remote and steep ridges, though visible from certain vantage points, so you do not have to be close to see them. D is not correct because some figures have been installed in sites accessible to hikers, or skiers in the winter. Q29/A The text says: Henry Moore viewed sculpture as an art of the open air. Gormley talks of wanting to liberate it from the ghetto of galleries [ ], which indicates that he also wants to put his figures in the open air. The correct answer is A (is similar to that of Henry Moore s). B is not correct because Gormley likens the bareness of his figures to man's vulnerability showing man, not nature. C is not correct because the text does not refer to Gormley s relationship with art dealers, but as he calls galleries ghettoes his opinion cannot be too favorable. D is not correct because the text does not refer to social disadvantages. Q30/D The text says: I simply stand there, mould it, and the result is cast in iron. The correct answer is D (shows a person s realistic place and posture). A is not correct because there is no reference to Gormley s opinion about whether he considers his body beautiful or not. However, the expression They're almost forensic indicates that beauty is not a major concern. B is not correct because there is no expression in his figures so they cannot express emotions. C is not correct because Gormley says: There is a distinction between my work and Rodin's. A Rodin [sculpture] is made, manipulating skilfully modelling clay. None of that pertains to my work. Q31/C The text says: [It] asks basic questions who are we, what are we, where do we come from and to where are we headed? The correct answer is C (reflect mankind s past, present, and future). A is not correct because the figures are to change the feeling about where you are not reflect emotional development. B is not correct because the figures are silent witnesses, not the nature around them. D is not correct the figures are neither representations nor symbols.

10 Lösungen Lesen E (AHS) HT 2012/13 10 Q32/C The text says: He wanted the statues to look in all directions without ever facing each other. The correct answer is C (look past one another). A is not correct because they never face each other and so cannot have eye-contact. B is not correct because Gormley says: It's important there's no drama. This means he does not want the arrangement of the figures to be exciting. D is not correct because the figures look in all directions. Q33/B The text says: When he asked members of the public to become a work of art for an hour on an empty plinth in Trafalgar Square, there were 35,000 applicants [ ]. The correct answer is B (were willing to take part in a live performance). A is not correct because the website received at least 7m hits across the world but the timeframe is not given. C is not correct because when he asked for volunteers to be moulded for the ghostly, steel figures in his Domain Field installation, more than 15,000 people came forward. How many were actually chosen is not referred to. D is not correct because the text does not say how many viewers saw the statue.
