Question 1 of 15
1. Question
Read the following passage and answer the questions that follow:
The approach to the University is being restructured to ease the flow of traffic, give better security, and provide an appropriate introduction to the seat of higher learning. The Works and Services complex is also under construction, and we intend to move into the completed (major) part of it within the next few weeks. All these projects are being executed with an eye to aesthetics for we recognize the important influence of a beautiful and healthy environment on its inhabitants and feel the cluster of building on a small space such as we have, should be so well designed as to have beneficial psychological and sociological effect on all members of the community. I have gone to these lengths to itemize these examples of current development for two main reasons. Firstly to advise you that the road diversion and other physical inconveniences currently being experienced will be on increase because of intense development activities. We, therefore, appeal to you bear with us in full knowledge and consolation that such inconveniences are temporary and will soon yield final tangible results. Secondly, demonstrate our capacity for executing approved projects with dispatch, and to assure Government that we are up to the task. Indeed, I can assure Government that its ability to disburse funds to us will be more than matched by our capacity to collect and expend them on various worthy projects in record time.
