The tasks are of different types including, but not limited to, matching, answering multiple choice questions, and identifying information (True/False/Not Given) . The number of tasks and their sequence in each part may vary.  \nPassage 1  \nYou should spend about 20 minutes on Questions 1-10, which are based on the reading passage below.  \nQuestions 1-6  \nChoose the correct heading for each paragraph (A-F)from the list of headings. There are 2 extra headings.  \nList of headings  \ni Dangers from the past  \nii Getting around the problem  \niii Unforeseen outcomes ofthe study iv Setting up the scene for the study v Preparing for an important occasion vi Adding urgency to uncovering the truth vii Surprisingly unsafe living environment viii Highlighting new perspectives on the issue  \n\n| 1. Paragraph A |  |\n| --- | --- |\n\nAmericans spend roughly 90 percent of their time indoors, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency notes. During that time, people cook. They clean. They chat, read, play, watch TV and do other things. People also bathe and sleep. And throughout it all, they breathe. New studies find that our activities can pollute the air we breathe indoors. And some of those compounds may harm our health. Both indoors and out,“activities can be a main driver of air quality,” observes Marina Vance, the researcher. Scientists have studied outdoor air pollution for decades. Many countries have created laws to limit pollution in outdoor air. But researchers know much less about the pollutants that can be created in reactions between chemicals floating around indoors.  \n\n| 2. Paragraph B |  |\n| --- | --- |\n\nTo learn more, Marina Vance and her team measured how some everyday activities can affect what chemicals end up in indoor air. To do that, they went to a test house at the University of Texas at Austin. This model home is equipped to measure energy use, how much outdoor air comes in to flush out stale air, and other things related to how buildings function. Chief scientists and engineers did all the cooking for a typical U.S. Thanksgiving celebration. They started with a hearty breakfast. Then they prepared a large holiday dinner. Team members roasted a turkey. They baked pies. They stirred up side dishes. Friends came over at dinner time to feast and visit. Then came clean-up time. All along, other team members measured chemicals present in the air.  \n\n| 3. Paragraph C |  |\n| --- | --- |\n\nThe researchers focused on particulates. Particulates are teeny bits of pollution. They can harm the heart, cause breathing problems and mess with some brain functions. The level of particulates would be worse in parts of the world where people still cook indoors on wood stoves. Even the heat from electric and gas stoves could create air currents that can spread chemicals from the food throughout a home’s air. In real homes, people also shower or take baths and use personal-care products. Such products include deodorants, nail polish, rubbing alcohol and shampoos. Joost de Gouw is an atmospheric chemist at the University of Colorado in Boulder. Many home products use chemicals called terpenes to mimic the smell of trees or other plants. And many terpenes are volatile organic compounds. That means they become gases at room temperature.  \n\n| 4.
