Read the following passage and choose the correct word or phrase that best fits each of the blanks.
THE HISTORY OF SHOES
In the past, importance was not given to shoes being comfortable or fashionable. These early foot coverings were probably animal skins, people tied around their ankles during cold weather. We still use leather today, but other materials such as silk, plastic, or cotton are also popular, on what is in fashion.
It was only one hundred and fifty years that people began to wear a different shoe on each foot. Formerly, the two shoes had been straight instead of shaped and be worn on the left or the right foot. All shoes used to be made by hand, but now, although there are shoemakers still using their skills, most shoes are now machine-made in large factories. The introduction of sewing machines allowed the shoe industry to produce large quantities of cheaper shoes for a wider range of buyers.
Read the following passage and to the task below.
We have all had bad experiences with restaurants, stores, or hotels. Maybe you have gone to a restaurant that served terrible food. Perhaps you have gone to a store that had high prices or bad service. Or maybe you have booked a hotel and found out later that the room was nothing like the advertisement.
These days, we have a better chance of preventing these unpleasant suprises. We can do this by using apps. "App" is short for "application". An app is a computer programme on a smartphone. You can use apps to do almost anything. Apps can help you play games, get directions, talk to friends, and so on.
If you want to find information about a store or a hotel, you can use a review app. Review apps help us evaluate services and products before we hand over our money. The idea is very simple. After you go to a restaurant or stay in a hotel, you can post a review with one of your apps. You can say anything you want. If you like a hotel you stayed in, you can tell people that it was wonderful. If you think that the food in a certain restaurant was bad, then you tell people not to eat there. Other people can use their apps to read your reviews.
Plenty of people prefer not to use these review apps. Many of these people prefer to go out and decide for themselves whether or not a service is good. However, review apps are getting more and more popular everyday. Some apps are for specific services. For example, Tripadvisor focuses on travel, and Goodreads focuses on books. There are also other, larger apps that provide information for just about every service that you can think of.
