Consumer Advice<\/strong><\/span><\/h3>

If something you\u2019ve ordered hasn\u2019t arrived, you should contact the seller to find out where it is. It\u2019s their legal responsibility to make sure the item is delivered to you. They should chase the delivery company and let you know what\u2019s happened to your item. If your item wasn\u2019t delivered to the location you agreed (e.g., if it was left with your neighbour without your consent), it\u2019s the seller\u2019s legal responsibility to sort out the issue.<\/span><\/p>

If the item doesn\u2019t turn up, you\u2019re legally entitled to a replacement or refund. You can ask for your money back if you don\u2019t receive the item within 30 days of buying it. If the seller refuses, you should put your complaint in writing. If that doesn\u2019t work, you could contact their trade association \u2013 look on their website for this information, or contact them to ask.<\/span><\/p>

You might also be able to get your money back through your bank or payment provider \u2013 this depends on how you paid.<\/span><\/p>

\u2022 If you paid by debit card, contact your bank and say you want to use the \u2018chargeback\u2019 scheme. If the bank agrees, they can ask the seller\u2019s bank to refund the money to your account. Many bank staff don\u2019t know about the scheme, so you might need to speak to a supervisor or manager. You should do this within 120 days of when you paid.<\/span><\/p>

\u2022 If you paid by credit card and the item cost less than \u00a3100, you should contact your credit card company and say you want to use the \u2018chargeback\u2019 scheme. There\u2019s no time limit for when you need to do this. If the item cost more than \u00a3100 but less than \u00a330,000, contact your credit card company and say that you want to make a \u2018section 75\u2019claim.<\/span><\/p>

\u2022 If you paid using PayPal, use PayPal\u2019s online resolution centre to report your dispute. You must do this within 180 days of paying.<\/span><\/p>

Rice Cookers<\/strong><\/span><\/h3>

A.<\/strong> Ezy Rice Cooker<\/span>
This has a 1.8 litre pot and a stainless steel exterior. It has a separate glass lid, and the handle on the lid stays cool. It produces perfectly cooked white rice, but tends to spit when cooking brown rice. There are slight dirt traps around the rim of the lid, and neither the pot nor the lid is dishwasher safe.<\/span><\/p>

B.<\/strong> Family Rice Cooker<\/span>
This has a plastic exterior and a flip-top lid. The lid locks when closed and becomes a secure handle to carry the cooker. The aluminium interior pot is quite difficult to clean, and it can\u2019t be put in a dishwasher. It\u2019s programmed to adjust the temperature once the rice is done so that it stops cooking but doesn\u2019t get cold.<\/span><\/p>

C.<\/strong> Mini Rice Cooker<\/span>
This has a flip-top lid and a 0.3 litre capacity. The interior pot is made of non-stick aluminium and is dishwasher safe. This rice cooker is ideal when cooking for one. However, it does not have any handles at the side, and water sometimes overflows when cooking brown rice.<\/span><\/p>

D.<\/strong> VPN Rice Cooker<\/span>
This has a painted steel exterior with a handle on each side and a steel inner pot. It has a lift-off lid and comes with a booklet including a range of ideas for rice dishes. However, the keep-warm setting must be manually selected and the handles are tricky to grip.<\/span><\/p>

E.<\/strong> S16 Rice cooker<\/span>
This is simple to use, not spitting or boiling over even when cooking brown rice. The exterior stays cool when in use, so there\u2019s no danger of burning your hand. However, the lack of handles is a nuisance, and a recipe book would have been useful.<\/span><\/p>

Questions 7-14<\/strong><\/span>
Look at the five reviews of rice cookers, A-E. For which rice cooker are the following statements true? Write the correct letter; A-E, in boxes 7-14 sheet. NB You may use any letter more than once.<\/span><\/p>

7.<\/strong> The handles at the side are hard to use.<\/span>
8.<\/strong> It cooks brown rice without making a mess.<\/span>
9.<\/strong> It automatically switches setting to keep the rice warm when cooked.<\/span>
10.<\/strong> It\u2019s difficult to get the removable top really clean.<\/span>
11.<\/strong> A selection of recipes is provided with the cooker.<\/span>
12.<\/strong> It has a handle at the top for carrying the cooker safely.<\/span>
13.<\/strong> The outside of the cooker doesn\u2019t get too hot.<\/span>
14.<\/strong> You can put the pot in the dishwasher.<\/span><\/p>

Safety when working on roofs<\/strong><\/span><\/h3>

A fall from height is the most serious hazard associated with roof work. Preventing falls from roofs is a priority for WorkSafe New Zealand. Investigations by WorkSafe into falls that occur while working at height show that more than 50 percent of falls are from under three metres, and most of these are from ladders and roofs. The cost of these falls is estimated to be $24 million a year \u2013 to say nothing of the human costs that result from these falls. More injuries happen on residential building sites than any other workplace in the construction sector.<\/span><\/p>

In order to prevent such injuries, a hazard assessment should be carried out for all work on roofs to assess potential dangers. It is essential that the hazards are identified before the work starts, and that the necessary equipment, appropriate precautions and systems of work are provided and implemented. Hazard identification should be repeated periodically or when there is a change in conditions, for example, the weather or numbers of staff onsite.<\/span><\/p>

The first thing to be considered is whether it is possible to eliminate this hazard completely, so that workers are not exposed to the danger of falling. This can sometimes be done at the design, construction planning, and tendering stage. If the possibility of a fail cannot be eliminated, some form of edge protection should be used to prevent workers from falling. It may be possible to use the existing scaffolding as edge protection. If this is not practicable, then temporary work platforms should be used. In cases where such protection is not possible, then steps should be taken to minimise the likelihood of any harm resulting. This means considering the use of safety nets and other similar systems to make it less likely that injury will be caused if a fall does occur.<\/span><\/p>

Ladders should only be employed for short-duration maintenance work such as touching up paint. People using ladders should be trained and instructed in the selection and safe use of ladders. There should be inspection of all ladders on a regular basis to ensure they are safe to use.<\/span><\/p>

Section 3<\/strong><\/span><\/h1>

The California Gold Rush of 1849<\/strong><\/span><\/h3>

A.<\/strong> On January 24, 1848, James Wilson Marshal!, a carpenter, found small flakes of gold in the American River near Coloma, California. At the time, Marshall was working to build a water-powered sawmill for businessman John Sutter. As it happens, just days after Marshall\u2019s discovery, the Treaty of Guadalupe Hidalgo was signed, ending the Mexican-American War and transferring California, with its mineral deposits, into the ownership of the United States. At the time, the population of the territory consisted of 6,500 Californios {people of Spanish or Mexican descent); 700 foreigners (primarily Americans); and 150,000 Native Americans.<\/span><\/p>

B.<\/strong> Though Marshall and Sutter tried to keep news of the discovery quiet, word got out, and by mid-March 1848 at least one newspaper was reporting that large quantities of gold were being found. Though the initial reaction in San Francisco was disbelief, storekeeper Sam Brannan set off a frenzy when he paraded through town displaying a small bottle containing gold from Sutter\u2019s Creek. By mid-June, some three-quarters of the male population of San Francisco had left town for the gold mines, and the number of miners in the area reached 4,000 by August.<\/span><\/p>

C.<\/strong> As news spread of the fortunes being made in California, the first migrants to arrive were those from lands accessible by boat, such as Oregon, the Sandwich Islands {now Hawaii), Mexico, Chile, Peru and even China. Only later would the news reach the East Coast, where press reports were initially skeptical. Throughout 1849, thousands of people around the United States (mostly men) borrowed money, mortgaged their property or spent their life savings to make the arduous journey to California. In pursuit of the kind of wealth they had never dreamed of, they left their families and local areas; in turn, their wives had no option but to shoulder different responsibilities such as running farms or businesses, and many made a real success of them.<\/span><\/p>

By the end of the year, the non-native population of California was estimated at 100,000 {as compared with 20,000 at the end of 1848 and around 800 in March 1848). To accommodate the needs of the \u201949ers, as the gold miners were known, towns had sprung up all over the region, complete with shops and other businesses seeking to make their own Gold Rush fortune. The overcrowded chaos of the mining camps and towns grew ever more lawless. San Francisco, for its part, developed a bustling economy and became the central metropolis of the new frontier.<\/span><\/p>

D.<\/strong> How did all these would-be miners search for gold? Panning was the oldest way. The basic procedure was to place some gold-bearing materials, such as river gravel, into a shallow pan, add some water, and then carefully swirl the mixture around so the water and light material spilled over the side. If all went well, the heavier gold nuggets or gold dust would settle to the bottom of the pan. Gold panning was slow even for the most skillful miner. On a good day, one miner could wash about 50 pans in the usual 12-hour workday.<\/span><\/p>

E.<\/strong> Another way was to use what was called a \u2018rocker\u2019. Isaac Humphrey is said to have introduced it to the California gold fields. It was simply a rectangular wooden box, set at a downward angle and mounted on a rocking mechanism. The dirt and rock was dumped into the top, followed by a bucket of water. The box was rocked by hand to agitate the mixture. The big rocks were caught in a sieve at the top, the waste exited the lower end with the water, and the heavy gold fell to the bottom of the box.<\/span><\/p>

The rocker had advantages and disadvantages. The advantages were that it was easily transportable; it did not require a constant source of water; and, most importantly, a miner could process more dirt and rock than with a pan. The primary disadvantage was that the rocker had difficulty in trapping the smallest particles of gold, commonly known as \u2018flour\u2019. Some miners added small amounts of mercury to the bottom of the rocker. Due to its chemical composition, it had a facility to trap fine gold. Periodically, the miners would remove and heat it. As it vaporized, it would leave gold behind.<\/span><\/p>

F.<\/strong> After 1850, the surface gold in California had largely disappeared, even as miners continued to reach the gold fields. Mining had always been difficult and dangerous labor, and striking it rich required good luck as much as skill and hard work. Moreover, the average daily pay for an independent miner had by then dropped sharply from what it had been in 1848. As gold became more and more difficult to reach, the growing industrialization of mining drove more and more miners from independence into wage labor. The new technique of hydraulic mining, developed in 1853, brought enormous profits, but destroyed much of the region\u2019s landscape.<\/span><\/p>

G.<\/strong> Though gold mining continued throughout the 1850s, it had reached its peak by 1852, when gold worth some $81 million was pulled from the ground. After that year, the total take declined gradually, leveling off to around $45 million per year by 1857. Settlement in California continued, however, and by the end of the decade the state\u2019s population was 380,000.<\/span><\/p>

Basic techniques for extracting gold<\/strong><\/span><\/h5>

The most basic method used by many miners began with digging some (37<\/strong>) __________ out of a river and hoping it might contain gold. Small amounts were put in a pan with water. The pan was spun round, causing the liquid and less heavy contents of the pan to come out. Gold dust, which weighed more, remained in the pan or, if the miners were very lucky, there might even be some (38<\/strong>) __________ too. It was, however, a very laborious method.<\/span><\/p>

The rocker was also used. A miner would put some earth and rock into the higher end, together with some water. He would then shake the rocker. Larger stones stuck in the (39<\/strong>) __________, while gold dropped to the bottom. Unfortunately, the rocker was not designed to catch what was called flour. However, a process was introduced involving (40<\/strong>) __________ to ensure no gold was washed out in the water.<\/span><\/p>
