Question 184

Question
575. According to the reading below. Is the following statement true or false?. The police believe the fire started by chance. Fire devastates Cutty Sark The Cutty Sark ship, one of London's most popular tourist attractions has been devasted by a fire, which police think may have been started on purpose. More than 40 fire fighters were called to the 138-year-old tea clipper ship in Greenwich early on Monday morning. The ship had recently been closed to visitors so improvements costing £25 million could be carried out. A spokesman for the London fire service said the whole ship was affected by the massive fire but nobody was hurt. Police don't know what caused the fire yet, but said they were treating it as suspicious. That means the fire may have been started on purpose rather than by accident. Chris Livett, from the group which looks after the ship, said the fire was a significant setback but they were determined to put the ship back together again. He said the decks could not be saved but the damage didn't appear as bad as first feared. Half the planking, as well as all the old artefacts on board, escaped damage as they had been removed while the refurbishment work was under way. He added: ""She's been through storms and hurricanes. She's been battling all her life. She's not dead yet, far from it."" The Cutty Sark was used to carry tea around the world in the 19th century. It now sits at a dry dock at Greenwich as a living museum."

Chris Livett, from the group which looks after the ship, said the fire was a significant setback but they were determined to put the ship back together again. He said the decks could not be saved but the damage didn't appear as bad as first feared. Half the planking, as well as all the old artefacts on board, escaped damage as they had been removed while the refurbishment work was under way. He added: ""She's been through storms and hurricanes. She's been battling all her life. She's not dead yet, far from it."" The Cutty Sark was used to carry tea around the world in the 19th century. It now sits at a dry dock at Greenwich as a living museum."

Question 187

Question
578. According to the reading below. Is the following statement true or false? The police are not sure whether someone set fire to the ship deliberately. Fire devastates Cutty Sark The Cutty Sark ship, one of London's most popular tourist attractions has been devasted by a fire, which police think may have been started on purpose. More than 40 fire fighters were called to the 138-year-old tea clipper ship in Greenwich early on Monday morning. The ship had recently been closed to visitors so improvements costing £25 million could be carried out. A spokesman for the London fire service said the whole ship was affected by the massive fire but nobody was hurt. Police don't know what caused the fire yet, but said they were treating it as suspicious. That means the fire may have been started on purpose rather than by accident.
