Test 2.

Listening.

Section 4.

S…
Speaker 2 (18_Track_18)
Now listen and answer questions 35 to
0:08
S…
Speaker 1 (18_Track_18)
40.
0:08
S…
Speaker 1 (18_Track_18)
If its use in trousers was
0:12
S…
Speaker 1 (18_Track_18)
a major factor in establishing the zip as a fashion icon,
0:15
S…
Speaker 1 (18_Track_18)
despite its occasional tendency to trap parts of the wearer's anatomy,
0:19
S…
Speaker 1 (18_Track_18)
another major breakthrough came with the separable zip,
0:22
S…
Speaker 1 (18_Track_18)
the kind that opens at both ends.
0:24
S…
Speaker 1 (18_Track_18)
This type,
0:26
S…
Speaker 1 (18_Track_18)
still widely used in a range of items,
0:28
S…
Speaker 1 (18_Track_18)
from jackets to tents,
0:29
S…
Speaker 1 (18_Track_18)
is shown in the diagram.
0:31
S…
Speaker 1 (18_Track_18)
Let's look first at the right -hand side of the illustration,
0:34
S…
Speaker 1 (18_Track_18)
at the material attached to the item of clothing,
0:38
S…
Speaker 1 (18_Track_18)
the bag,
0:39
S…
Speaker 1 (18_Track_18)
or whatever.
0:39
S…
Speaker 1 (18_Track_18)
This is the tape,
0:41
S…
Speaker 1 (18_Track_18)
which is usually made of fairly tough fabric.
0:44
S…
Speaker 1 (18_Track_18)
At the end of that,
0:46
S…
Speaker 1 (18_Track_18)
there's what is known as the heat seal patch,
0:48
S…
Speaker 1 (18_Track_18)
the cotton and nylon laminated material used to reinforce the tape.
0:52
S…
Speaker 1 (18_Track_18)
Now,
0:53
S…
Speaker 1 (18_Track_18)
alongside the heat seal patch is a small piece of metal used
0:57
S…
Speaker 1 (18_Track_18)
only on a separating zip.
0:59
S…
Speaker 1 (18_Track_18)
whose function is to enable the two halves of the zip to join.
1:02
S…
Speaker 1 (18_Track_18)
This is known as the pin.
1:04
S…
Speaker 1 (18_Track_18)
Opposite that,
1:06
S…
Speaker 1 (18_Track_18)
on the other half of the zip in the diagram,
1:07
S…
Speaker 1 (18_Track_18)
is a device which correctly aligns the pin.
1:10
S…
Speaker 1 (18_Track_18)
The box,
1:12
S…
Speaker 1 (18_Track_18)
as it's called,
1:13
S…
Speaker 1 (18_Track_18)
begins the joining of the zip halves.
1:15
S…
Speaker 1 (18_Track_18)
Running up the inside edge of each half are dozens,
1:18
S…
Speaker 1 (18_Track_18)
possibly hundreds,
1:19
S…
Speaker 1 (18_Track_18)
of metal teeth,
1:20
S…
Speaker 1 (18_Track_18)
each of which has a small hook and an equally tiny hollow.
1:25
S…
Speaker 1 (18_Track_18)
Moving up and down the teeth to open and close the zip is a piece of metal
1:29
S…
Speaker 1 (18_Track_18)
called the slider.
1:30
S…
Speaker 1 (18_Track_18)
This is operated by means of a pull tab,
1:33
S…
Speaker 1 (18_Track_18)
so called,
1:34
S…
Speaker 1 (18_Track_18)
because logically enough,
1:36
S…
Speaker 1 (18_Track_18)
the wearer or user pulls it in one direction or the other.
1:39
S…
Speaker 1 (18_Track_18)
To close the zip,
1:41
S…
Speaker 1 (18_Track_18)
a wedge inside the slider pushes the hook of each tooth on one side
1:45
S…
Speaker 1 (18_Track_18)
into the hollow of each offset tooth on the other.
1:48
S…
Speaker 1 (18_Track_18)
To open it,
1:50
S…
Speaker 1 (18_Track_18)
the wedge forces them apart.
1:52
S…
Speaker 1 (18_Track_18)
To prevent the slider coming off the teeth at the other end,
1:55
S…
Speaker 1 (18_Track_18)
there is a top stop on both sides of the zip.
1:58
S…
Speaker 1 (18_Track_18)
This basic design has changed little in the many years since it
2:02
S…
Speaker 1 (18_Track_18)
was first introduced,
2:03
S…
Speaker 1 (18_Track_18)
although nowadays,
2:04
S…
Speaker 1 (18_Track_18)
of course, zips,
2:05
S…
Speaker 1 (18_Track_18)
zippers,
2:06
S…
Speaker 1 (18_Track_18)
are available in a whole range of shapes,
2:09
S…
Speaker 1 (18_Track_18)
sizes,
2:09
S…
Speaker 1 (18_Track_18)
and materials.
2:10
S…
Speaker 2 (18_Track_18)
That
2:14
S…
Speaker 2 (18_Track_18)
is the end of test two.
