Questions 11-14
Complete the sentences below.

Write NO MORE THAN THREE WORDS AND/OR A NUMBER for each answer.

The Dinosaur Trail lasts around (11) and it is suitable for people (12).

Disabled visitors can borrow wheelchairs at the (13).

There is a lift available to access (14) in the Blue, Green and Red zones.

The answer is B. The script says, "the Dinosaur Trail is a fantastic introduction for those who are big on museums, but short on time." This shows the tour is designed for visitors who don't have much time available, which is choice (B). There is no evidence the trail is only for young people (A) or just for people who already know a lot about dinosaurs (C).

Associated Text:
Now, the Dinosaur Trail is a fantastic introduction for those who are big on museums, but short on time.

The answer is C. The guide says, "this dinosaur looks a bit like a modern rhinoceros, because of its instantly recognisable head." This shows the appearance of the Triceratops is similar to a rhinoceros, so (C) is correct. There is no mention of it being similar to larger dinosaurs (A) or Tyrannosaurus (B) in the context of appearance.

Associated Text:
this dinosaur looks a bit like a modern rhinoceros, because of its instantly recognisable head.

The answer is C. The guide says, "scientists now think that it is more likely that the horns were used for identification, for finding a mate, and for showing off strength and power in a group." This means scientists now believe the horns help Triceratops find a mate, which is answer (C). There is no mention that the horns are used to hunt (A) or to fight as the primary purpose (B).

Associated Text:
scientists now think that it is more likely that the horns were used for identification, for finding a mate, and for showing off strength and power in a group.

The answer is B. The guide says the Mantellisaurus is “a 129-million-year-old Mantellisaurus.” This confirms its age, so (B) is correct. The script also mentions it was previously mistaken for an Iguanodon, but now it has its own identity, so it is not an Iguanodon (A). Although the Mantellisaurus is a fossil, the question focuses on distinguishing features, and age is directly stated.

Associated Text:
a 129-million-year-old Mantellisaurus.

21. The café is

The answer is B. The script states that in the Fossil Gallery, "Here you will find a Jurassic crocodile that lived in the sea and hundreds of fossils that inspired stories of sea dragons." This directly supports answer (B): a kind of crocodile. There is no mention of an actual sea dragon (A) or a land dinosaur (C) as an exhibit here.

Associated Text:
Here you will find a Jurassic crocodile that lived in the sea and hundreds of fossils that inspired stories of sea dragons.

The answer is A. The text says, "We don't know the dinosaur's exact age, but we do know that it wasn't an adult." This means the Stegosaurus skeleton belonged to a young animal, not an adult, confirming answer (A). There is no evidence that it lived exactly 150 million years ago (B), and the script describes it as the world's most complete Stegosaurus skeleton, so it is not incomplete (C).

Associated Text:
We don't know the dinosaur's exact age, but we do know that it wasn't an adult.

The answer is C. According to the script, "you can then visit the café, which is located next to the Marine Life Gallery in the Red Zone." This means the café is in the Red Zone (C). There is no support for answers (A) or (B) in the script.

Associated Text:
you can then visit the café, which is located next to the Marine Life Gallery in the Red Zone.
