Language in use I You are going to read a text about Asians in Britain. Some words are missing from the text. Choose from the list (A–M) the correct word for each gap (1–10) in the text. There are two extra words that you should not use. Write your answers in the boxes provided. The first one (0) has been done for you. 29 TIP Banked gap-filling The testing technique used in this task is known as “Banked gap-filling” because there is a bank (= list) of alternatives (here: A–M) from which you have to choose the appropriate word for a gap. Note, however, that usually the bank of words contains one or two extra words (“distractors”) that will not fit in any of the gaps: leave them out. Proceed as follows: Glance over the whole text to get an idea of what it is about. • Speculate about the meaning of the missing word. Then look at the words in the bank. Which one • comes closest to this meaning? Cross out the word in the bank once you have decided where to insert it in the text. This will make it • easier to search through the remaining words. Pay close attention to the words before • and after the gaps, as they co-determine what words can and can’t be used. A very common mistake is to find a word that fits the text before the gap but not after the gap. Therefore, always look at both sides of the gap. Having completed all the gaps, read the text again for a final check of your choices. • Do not forget to document your choices in the • boxes under the text . DO NOT write the chosen words there. Write the letters (A, B, C,… M) corresponding to these words there. Asians in Britain Indian families were often (0) ..... when they arrived in Britain because people were very (1) ......
