Part II: Banked Cloze
Questions 31 to 40 are based on the following passage.
Sheila (31)recently took a class trip to a bubble gum factory. While she was there, her class took a tour and saw how the (32)manufacturer makes thousands of sticks of gum each and every day! While many fads come and go, the (33)popularity of bubble gum has remained constant for many years.
On the tour, Sheila's class learned that gum is made from many different ingredients that are initially (34)melted together into a warm, sticky mixture. Sugar, syrup, and flavouring are then added to the mix. The factory was making grape gum, which is Sheila's favorite (35)flavour, while her class was visiting.
Once the mixture is complete, (36)enormous machines blend and smooth the gum so that it can be flattened and cut into sticks. Some of the gum mixture is also squeezed into a(n) (37)mould and made into gumballs or other fun shapes. After the gum cools, more machines wrap each individual piece. The gum is then packaged and sent to stores.
Learning how bubble gum is (38)manufactured really gave Sheila a sense of appreciation for how difficult it is to make her favourite snack. After the tour, each student was allowed to take one (39)mouthful of gum to chew on the way home. Sheila chose grape; it was so (40)juicy and delicious!

Part III: Reading Comprehension
Questions 41 to 45 are based on the following passage.
Many countries are famous for unique and delicious foods. China, Italy, France, India, and Japan are just some of the countries with famous national cuisines. In the past, people had to travel great distances in order to sample foods from other countries. Today, it has never been easier to try food from a different country every day.
One of the most popular foods around the world is pizza. Though pizza has historical and cultural ties to Italy, many different types of pizza have developed outside of Italy and several have been adopted as signature dishes of the respective region.
Pizza first appeared in Italy as a type of flat bread that was inexpensive and easy to make. By the 18th century, residents around Naples in southern Italy were famous for their baked flat breads covered in tomato sauce. To this day, people still travel to Naples to sample pizza in its birthplace
and Neapolitans (residents of Naples) are proud of this heritage. Indeed, the city continues to be famous for its delicious pizza.
One of the first (and still most popular) varieties of pizza is called the Margherita, named after Queen Margherita of Savoy. This variety was her favourite because the colours of the ingredients matched the Italian flag — red (tomatoes), white (mozzarella cheese), and green (basil leaves).
With increased trade, travel, and immigration throughout the 18th and 19th centuries, cultural traditions and cuisines spread around the world. Today, pizza is very popular in many countries, including the United States. New York City and Chicago are particularly famous for their unique styles of pizza. Pizzas today are also available with nearly every topping imaginable: mushrooms, peppers, sausage, pineapple, and anchovies, to name only a few. If you can think of it, chances are that someone's already tried putting it on a pizza!
