Part II: Banked Cloze

Questions 31 to 40 are based on the following passage.

Sheila (31)

took a class trip to a bubble gum factory. While she was there, her class took a tour

and saw how the (32)

makes thousands of sticks of gum each and every day! While many fads

come and go, the (33)

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)

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) , while her class was

visiting.

Once the mixture is complete, (36)

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)

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)

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)

of gum to

chew on the way home. Sheila chose grape; it was so (40)

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 Y

ork 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!
