    CAE Reading and Use of English

    Part 7
    Exam Technique
    This is an example of a part 7 task. There are 12 points available in this part, 2 for each correct
    answer. Depending on how difficult you find this part decide how much time to give yourself
    15/20 minutes.
    Text Preparation
    Text preparation involves looking for “anchors” in the text
    either side of the gaps and in the missing paragraphs.
    Anchors are words that give us information about their
    location in a text, they could be:
    • Pronouns: he / she / it / this / that etc.
    • Possessive adjectives: his / her / its etc.
    • Linkers: So, however, but, then, afterwards etc.
    • Other reference words / parts of structures: too / either /
    parts of conditionals / comparisons.
    Let’s look at some examples. Look at the text around the
    first gap. Underline any anchors you find.
    Underline the anchors. Now look at the paragraphs for the
    corresponding information.
    In this one we have loads of anchors!
    Now in pairs look for anchors in the text
    next to the rest of the gaps.
    Sometimes there aren’t any anchors in the
    text, as we see in gap 12. However, by finding
    anchors for all the other gaps it makes it easier
    to eliminate other paragraphs.

    Now do the same for the paragraphs.

    Here is an example:
    Answer Key
    7-g
    8-f
    9-b
    10-e
    11-c
    12-a
