LAKE DISTRICT WATER PLAN SCRUTINISED

Trang 3
A public inquiry opened yesterday into plans to pump extra water from the Lake District National Park to
refill reservoirs drained by drought. United Utilities has submitted its proposals to take water from two lakes,
Windermere and Ullswater, to public scrutiny because of concerns about the potential damage to wildlife.
Anglers are concerned that spawning sites for salmon and trout could dry out if water is drained from the
rivers that flow from the lakes. But the utilities company insists that removing and treating the extra water will
not hurt local flora and fauna. The hearing, headed by the government inspector, Stuart Nixon, is being held in
the Cumbrian town of Windermere and will last for two days. A final decision is expected to be taken later this
month by Margaret Beckett, the Environment Secretary.
United Utilities insists that the drought orders are necessary to prevent the further depletion of water from
two of its reservoirs in the Lake District, Haweswater and Thirlmere. Because of the unusually dry summer this
year, Haweswater has only 53 per cent of its capacity compared with 68 percent at the same time last year.
Thirlmere has just 47 percent, whereas last year it had 79 percent.
If United Utilities is given the go-ahead, it would be able to take extra water from the Windermere and
Ullswater rivers – Leven and Eamont respectively – this winter, rather than having to take emergency measures
next year. Water from Ullswater would be piped into Haweswater reservoir; water from Windermere would
enter the local supply, and prevent further depletion of Thirlmere. Water supplies would reach two million
people in Manchester, Lancashire, south Cumbria and parts of Cheshire.
Cumbria Wildlife Trust said taking extra water could pose problems for wildlife if not properly managed.
But a spokesman said it was not opposing United Utilities' plans because it was better for water to be drained in
the wet winter months rather than in the summer. ‘If they don’t have to do it now, they will have to do it in
April,’ the spokesman said.
Dickon Knight, the agent for the landowner Holker Estates, said the proposed minimum flows on the river
Leven would harm efforts to protect salmon stocks. Alistair Maltby, the manager of the Eden Rivers Trust, said
taking water from the rivers during the winter was the best approach but urged United Utilities to mend leaks in
its pipes in the long run. Gary Dixon, customer service manager at United Utilities, said, ‘We can’t predict what
supplies will be like over the winter. Normally this is when our reservoirs would refill but if the low rainfall
continues we need to start planning ahead for next summer. Taking action now will have a lower impact on the
river environment than during the spring.’
The company said the deluge of rain in recent weeks was helping to top up the reservoirs. John Carberry,
a spokesman, said, ‘There is no crisis and no panic, but we are looking ahead for next year. There is a potential
impact on the environment which is why we are seeking permission to do what we want to do.’ The
Environment Agency said it would work with the utility company to ensure any damage to fish stocks was kept
to a minimum.
1. According to the opening paragraph, the controversy arose due to ________.
A. a proposed scheme to top up water supplies.
B. excessive water in local lakes.
C. civilians protesting over a threat to the environment.
D. a possibility that reservoirs could be contaminated.
2. The word “hearing” in paragraph 2 is closest in meaning to ________.
A. trial B. legal action C. lawsuit D. official meeting
3. Who does the outcome of the proposal ultimately rest with?
A. the area’s fishermen B. a utilities company
C. Margaret Beckett D. Stuart Nixon
4. What have high temperatures resulted in?
A. several bodies of water in the Lake District completely drying up
B. United Utilities wanting to take certain measures
C. two lakes being left with less than 50% of their water
D. a large decrease in profits for United Utilities
5. The word “go-ahead” in paragraph 2 is closest in meaning to ________.
A. leave B. consensus C. authorization D. permit
6. If the plan is implemented, _______.
A. it will inevitably avert a national crisis.
B. its impact will be felt nationwide.
C. it could cause irreversible damage.
D. it should preferably be done in winter.
7. Which of the following statements is NOT true, according to the passage?.
A. the water depletion rate of all reservoirs is not the same.
B. Wildlife might be affected by excessive water taking
C. It’s inevitable that water should be drained sooner or later.
D. Water from two rivers would be pumped into the local supply
8. What is Alistair Maltby’s opinion on refilling reservoirs?.
A. It will be detrimental to certain species of fish.
B. It’s the best solution as long as a technical problem is sorted out.

Trang 4
C. It will have a negative effect on the environment if left until spring.
D. Its success depends on how well United Utilities manage the project.
9. It can be inferred from the passage that ________.
A. it’s spring at the moment the passage was written
B. salmon stocks are being kept to a minimum
C. there will be an active collaboration for the common good
D. water depletion has reached epidemic proportions
10. What is the overall tone of the passage?

Try it and see
In the social sciences, it is often supposed that there can be no such thing as a controlled
experiment. Think again.
A. In the scientific pecking order, social scientific are usually looked down on by their peers in the nature
sciences. Natural scientists do experiments to test their theories or, if they cannot, they try to look for natural
phenomena that can act in lieu of experiments. Social scientists, it is widely thought, do not subject their own
hypotheses to any such rigorous treatment. Worse, they peddle their untested hypotheses to government and
try to get them turned into policies.
B. Governments require sellers of new medicines to demonstrate their safety and effectiveness. The accepted
gold standard of evidence is a randomized control trial, in which a new drug is compared with the best existing
therapy (or with a placebo, if no treatment is available). Patients are assigned to one arm or the other of such a
study at random, ensuring that the only difference between the two groups is the new treatment. The best
studies also ensure that neither patient nor physician knows which patient is allocated to which therapy. Drug
trials must also include enough patients to make it unlikely that chance alone may determine the result.
C. But few education programmes or social initiatives are evaluated in carefully conducted studies prior to
their introduction. A case in point is the ‘whole-language’ approach to reading, which swept much of the
English-speaking world in the 1970s and 1980s. The whole-language theory holds that children learn to read
best by absorbing contextual clues from texts, not by breaking individual words into their component parts and
reassembling them (a method known as phonics). Unfortunately, the educational theorists who pushed the
whole-language notion so successfully did not wait for evidence from controlled randomized trials before
advancing their claims. Had they done so, they might have concluded, as did an analysis of 52 randomized
studies carried out by the US National Reading Panel in 2000, that effective reading instruction requires
phonics.
D. To avoid the widespread adoption of misguided ideas, the sensible thing is to experiment first and make
policy later. This is the idea behind a trial of restorative justice which is taking place in the English courts. The
experiment will include criminals who plead guilty to robbery. Those who agree to participate will be assigned
randomly either to sentencing as normal or to participation in a conference in which the offender comes face-

Trang 5
to-face with his victim and discusses how he may make emotional and material restitution. The purpose of the
trial is to assess whether such restorative justice limits re-offending. If it does, it might be adopted more widely.
E. The idea of experimental evidence is not quite new to the social science as sneering natural scientists
might believe. In fact, randomized trials and systematic reviews of evidence were introduced into the social
sciences long before they became common in medicine. An apparent example of random allocations is a study
carried out in 1927 of how to persuade people to vote in elections. And randomized trials in social work were
begun in the 1930s and 1940s. But enthusiasm later waned. This loss of interest can be attributed, at least in
part, to the fact that early experiments produced little evidence of positive outcomes. Others suggest that much
of the opposition to experimental evaluation stems from a common philosophical malaise among social
scientists, who doubt the validity of the natural sciences, and therefore reject the potential of knowledge
derived from controlled experiments. A more pragmatic factor limiting the growth of evidence-based education
and social services may be limitations on the funds available for research.
F. Nevertheless, some 11,000 experimental studies are known in the social sciences
(compared with over 250,000 in the medical literature). Randomised trials have been used to evaluate the
effectiveness of driver-education programmes, job-training schemes, classroom size, psychological counseling
for post-traumatic stress disorder and increased investment in public housing. And where they are carried out,
they seem to have a health dampening effect on otherwise rosy interpretations of the observations.
G. The problem for policymakers is often not too few data, but what to make of multiple and conflicting
studies. This is where a body called the Campbell Collaboration comes into its own. This independent non-profit
organization is designed to evaluate existing studies, in a process known as a systematic review. This means
attempting to identify every relevant trial of a give question (including studies that have never been published
choosing the best ones using clearly defined criteria for quality, and combining the results in a statistically valid
way. An equivalent body, the Cochrane Collaboration, has produced more than 1,000 such reviews in medical
fields. The hope is that rigorous review standards will allow Campbell, like Cochrane, to become a trusted and
authoritative source of information.
For question 7-10, choose NO MORE THAN TWO WORDS from the passage for each answer.
Fighting Crime
Some criminals in England are agreeing to take part in a trial designed to help reduce their chance of
7.________. The idea is that while one group of randomly selected criminals undergoes the usual

A. Kerry:
Sundance by Teresa Wilson

I really don't know why this book is so popular. I mean, I suppose it is going to appeal to young girls who want
danger and romance, but I found this book really tedious. For a start, the characters were really unconvincing.
The author went out of her way to add lots of details about the characters, but I found these details really
pointless. I thought that some of the facts she presented about the main characters would become significant
in some way later in the novel, but they didn't. They were just worthless bits of information. I also was
disappointed that, although this book is meant to be about kids at high school, the writer seems to have no
recollection at all about what it's like to be 17. The main character thought and acted like a 32-year old. It just
wasn't believable. I'm not saying Teresa Wilson is a bad writer. She can obviously string words together and
come up with a story that is appealing to a large number of people, but she lacks anything original. There is no
flair. It just uses the same sort of language as you can see in many other mediocre novels.

B. Liz:
Wild Ways by Margery Emerson

I have to say that I won't forget this book for a long time. I was hooked from the very first chapter. The
devastating story affected me so much that I don't know if I'll ever feel the same again. I was close to tears on
several occasions. I've got images in my brain now that I don't think will ever leave me. It's incredibly well-
researched and, although it is fiction, is based on shocking real-life events. I learned an awful lot about things
that went on that I never knew before. Margaret Emerson has a brilliant way with words and I really felt real

Trang 6
empathy towards the characters, although I was sometimes irritated by the choices they made. However, the
parallel story, the part that is set in the present, is not quite so good. I found myself just flicking through that
part so that I could get back to 1940s Paris. 

C. Imogen:
Orchid by Henry Rathbone

This is a delightful novel full of wonderful imagery, a paints a remarkable picture of life in a distant time and a
far-away place. If you're looking to learn about Eastern culture in great detail, then this is probably not the
book for you, as the writer skims over most of the more complicated aspects of the country's etiquette. The
historical aspects are also not covered in much depth. However, I wonder whether this was the writer's
intention. By doing this, he symbolise the superficiality of the girl's life. She, like the book, is beautiful and
eager to please, but remains too distant from us, the readers, to teach us much. Although I loved the book and
read it in one sitting, the ending was a bit of a disappointment. A story which involves so much turmoil, in a
place where the future is uncertain, should not have a happy-ever-after fairy-tale ending.

D. Hannah:
High Hills by Mary Holland

I read this book for a literature class. I know it's a classic, and I did try to like it, but I just didn't get into it. I
kept persevering, hoping that I'd start to enjoy it, but no such luck. The famous scene out on the moors was
definitely the best bit of the book, but even that I found ridiculous when it is clearly supposed to be passionate.
As I approached the end of the book, I figured there must be some kind of moral to the story, something that I
would learn from the experience of trudging through seven hundred long pages, but there was nothing
worthwhile. I don't know why the literary world sees this book as such a masterpiece. The characters are
portrayed as being intelligent, but they do such stupid things! And as for it being a love story - marrying
someone you don't love and then being abused by them - that doesn't spell love to me.
