II. READING TEST

45 minutes, 20 points

Task 1 (5 points, 1 point per item). Read the text about the history of pizza. For questions 21–25, choose
the correct answer. There is an example (0).

A SHORT HISTORY OF PIZZA

Pizza, the world’s favourite fast food from Italy, is eaten everywhere – at home, in restaurants and on the
streets. Every year, approximately three billion pizzas are bought in the USA alone. Of all the countries in
the world, people in Norway eat the biggest number of pizzas per person, whereas Italians would rather go
for pasta, although everybody knows that Italians are a synonym for pizza lovers.

In ancient times, flatbread with spicy toppings was served to those who could not afford plates or were
busy. The modern pizza appeared in 18th-century Naples, Italy. Workmen liked this cheap and easy-to-eat
food sold by street sellers. The toppings included garlic, cheese, fish and basil. Tomatoes were rare as they
had only recently been brought from the Americas.

Legend holds that on her visit to Naples in 1889, Queen Margherita ate and loved the pizza that now has
her name. Yet Carol Helstosky, a history professor, notes, “Back then, people called pizzas ‘disgusting’
and cookbooks never mentioned them, so it was not an important Italian dish and a meeting between a
queen and a pizza maker is impossible.” The story is based on the official-looking letter from the queen’s
chef hanging in Pizzeria Brandi. The truth is that studies of the wax seal on the letter and the handwriting
show that the letter is not real.

In the 1930s, many Neapolitans moved north and took their cuisine with them. After World War II, travel
got cheaper and tourists became curious about Italian food, therefore, restaurants across the country started
offering more national dishes, including pizza and pasta. New ingredients were added to the pizza to reflect
local flavours and the higher prices that clients were ready to pay.

In the first half of the 20th century, many Italians sailed to America, and pizza quickly spread there. Pizzerias
were cheap to keep and became attractive for immigrant businessmen from various countries who changed
pizzas according to local tastes. In Chicago, large pizzas had a soft bread base and rich toppings – cheese
on the bottom and a mountain of thick tomato sauce. In Colorado, the Rocky Mountain Pie had a wide crust
that was often left uneaten and later enjoyed with honey as a desert; and a Hawaiian pizza was decorated
with pineapple and ham.

In the age of technological development in the US, the pizza transformed even more. As more households
bought freezers, the frozen pizza was produced. Slices of tomatoes were replaced by tomato paste to prevent
the base from drying when cooked in the oven; dairy farms developed new cheeses that froze well; pickled
onions and cucumbers became popular side dishes. Today, the form of the pizza remains standard, but the
toppings vary greatly, and everyone has their own idea of what a pizza should be like.

Task 2 (5 points, 1 point per item). Read the text about electronic books. For questions 26–30, choose from
statements A–F the one which best summarises each paragraph. There is one extra statement which you
do not need to use. There is an example (0).

E-BOOKS OR PRINT BOOKS?

A Digital resources are convenient to share.

B E-books can provide access to extra information.
C E-books may increase the use of information technologies.
D Readers of e-books should be responsible persons.
E The digital content of e-books has to be protected.
F The damage e-books do to human health can be prevented.
G E-books can be available anytime.

Čia rašo
vertintojas

0. G
People can buy, read and share e-books wherever they are and whatever schedules they
have. E-books can be bought online from a digital bookstore and downloaded immediately
to personal devices. Libraries offer digital lending, so readers can borrow e-books without
visiting libraries during opening hours.

26. ___
Convenient access to digital texts creates problems. Unlike print books, electronic books
are easy to copy and post on unofficial websites. To prevent illegal e-book sales, authors
and publishers practise Digital Rights Management (DRM), which is a set of access
control technologies increasingly used worldwide. While this is helpful, there is no way
to fully stop e-book stealing, so online sellers feel responsible for online security means.

27. ___
When readers borrow print books from the library and forget to return them, they are
charged a fine. E-book readers never pay such fines as they do not have to return the digital
content which is protected by the DRM system. When the license for the borrowed e-book
runs out, the book disappears from the electronic device. Many readers find this fair, and
increasingly use e-lending programmes that allow them to exchange e-books and manage
their due return as well as develop their sense of responsibility.

28. ___
E-books contain digital multimedia elements not available with traditional books. If the
writer has permission from the copyright owners, audio and video materials can be
integrated into e-books. Links to related websites can be included to offer additional
content. Some readers find this annoying and tiring, while others greatly enjoy the
convenience of such digital reading, which saves them from spending extra time and
energy.

29. ___
While e-books are easy to use and share, their effect on our life can be quite damaging.
Batteries and screens of smartphones or tablets produce e-waste destroying the atmosphere
and human health. It seems to be the readers’ duty to decide how often they need to buy
the latest model of mobile devices to read e-books and how useful sharing print books can
be to get access to specific information.

30. ___
Some people worry about the bright light that the screens of electronic devices produce.
Modern devices can adjust the brightness of the screen to increase reading comfort. The
font size can be enlarged to help sore eyes, too. Although eyesight cannot be fully
protected in reading, e-book readers can use all the technological benefits that e-books
provide and reduce possible risks.
