问题 How to approach Reading Test Part Six
• This part of the Reading Test tests your ability to identify additional or unnecessary words in a text.
• Most lines contain one extra word that makes the sentence incorrect.
• Read the whole text quickly to find out what it is about. As you read, try to identify the words that are incorrect.
• Then read the text again, and write down the extra words. Remember there will be only one extra word in a line, and some lines are correct.
•   Read the article below about a chain of cafes.
•   In most lines there is one unnecessary word. It is either grammatically incorrect or does not fit in with the sense of the text. Some lines are correct.
•   For each numbered line 41 - 52, find the unnecessary word and then write the word in CAPITAL LETTERS on your Answer Sheet.
                                         Hard times for caf6 chain
     It has been a terrible year for cafe operator called Dawkin. Less than 12  months ago it took over the Cafeza chain, with its 16 sites, but it is rumoured
41. that half of those are yet to be closed in the next few months, because of falling
42. turnover. What’s more, the company is still recovering from the sudden
43. resignation of its Managing Director in April. While Dawkin operates 84 cafes,
44. and had plans to reach up 150 by the end of next year. This is looking less and
45. less achievable, given that the company’s poor financial position and limits on
46. its short-term debt facilities. Worst of all news, perhaps, Dawkin has just
47. announced that its rival Highway has built it up a shareholding of just over 5%,
48. redoubling speculation that Dawkin’s days as an independent operator are being
49. numbered. Roughly equal in size, the two have long been competing for the
50. number five slot in the overcrowded caf6 market. There are now rumours of a
51. deal between the two, which would provide them complementary coverage,
52. Dawkin being strong in London and other big cities, and unlike Highway concentrating its efforts outside the major population centres.
