Part 1 Reading
Task 1
Read the article about ‘ad-wrapping’, and sentences 1–10 below.
For each sentence 1–10 mark one letter (A, B or C).


In 1993 Pepsi paid for six of Seattle’s city buses to carry their advertisements. The original plan was for the buses to be painted, but then someone came up with the idea of wrapping them in vinyl instead. Helicopters, planes, speedboats and racing cars were the next vehicles to be ad-wrapped in the quest for adverts to be carried far, fast and wide. But because these ‘mobile billboards’ were intended to be seen by as many people as possible in one day, companies started to realise that fast vehicles in the air and on the water were not the best ones for the job. A much better idea would be to wrap the vehicles which drove the busiest routes on a daily basis. And so the process of wrapping personal cars in vinyl ads began. Researchers have calculated that one ad-wrapped car or truck is seen by around 70,000 pedestrians and motorists every day, making it an incredibly efficient and effective form of advertising.

Many drivers wishing to supplement their income are happily agreeing to have their cars wrapped. Some companies provide a free wrapped vehicle for the driver, others pay the driver to have their own personal car wrapped in ads. As long as the car is big enough and new enough it qualifies to be wrapped. Some people also get paid more to distribute free samples and leaflets or to drive to promotional events or the opening of a new store.


Considerable restrictions are imposed on a driver who chooses to have their car


ad-wrapped. While some companies check the driver’s normal routes to see that their ads will reach the right kind of audience, others request the car owner to drive specific routes. Jess Finlay drove an ad-wrapped car for two years. She says, ‘It’s a good way to make some extra money, but you have to be quite careful what you do. You have to park the car outside wherever possible. When you are behind the wheel you mustn’t drink alcohol or exceed the speed limit, of course, but also you mustn’t drop litter, mustn’t smoke at all and mustn’t swear. Most importantly of all – you mustn’t be seen using a rival company’s products! In the end I decided to stop when I was told by the company that I should stay in the slow lane during the rush hour whenever possible, as they wanted the ads to be seen by more people. I know I was being paid quite good money, but I felt my freedom was limited too much.’
