The diagram highlights the changes which took place on an island through the installation of tourist

infrastructure.

Overall, the island, which measures 1.5km across, was transformed from an uninhabited and featureless
location into a holiday resort with many facilities.

In terms of building developments, one significant change was the construction of two zones of
accommodation, which flank a new reception to the east and west. In the western zone, there are a few
trees, which had also been present prior to the development. In addition, a restaurant was built to the
north of the reception.

Regarding transport, a pier was introduced off the south coast, and a vehicle track was laid to link the
main attractions. Specifically, this track connects the pier, the reception, and the restaurant, as well as a
newly built western footpath. This footpath not only links the western accommodation but also leads to
the beach, which now offers a swimming area. Although the eastern huts are also connected by a
footpath, this is not linked with the vehicle track.

The diagrams illustrate the current setup of a university’s sports complex and the way it will appear
following a planned expansion.

Overall, the sports centre is set to become an entirely indoor facility since extensions are due to be built
to the east and west, which will supplant the centre’s outdoor courts.

At present, the sports facility houses an entrance area with a reception, to the east and west of which
are doorways which lead into the seating area and changing rooms respectively. These flank a 25m pool,
and north of this is a gym. Outdoor courts lie to the east and west of the building.

After the redevelopment, the entrance area will accommodate a sports shop in its southwestern corner
and a cafe in its southeastern corner, and these will back onto new changing rooms. While the western
outdoor court will have been replaced by a leisure pool, the eastern court will have been turned into a
sports hall west of two new dance studios. Finally, the gym will have been extended eastward toward
these dance studios.

The map shows a town of 65,000 people called Garlsdon. Indicated on the map are two potential
locations for a new supermarket in the town.

In general, it can be seen that the first site, S1, is in a more rural area on the outskirts of town, while the
second location, S2, occupies a more urban and central position in the town.

Focusing on S1, if the supermarket were placed here, it would be positioned in the north-west of the
countryside between the railway line and the main road to Hindon, a town 12km away with a
population of 10,000.
If built on the S2 site, however, the supermarket would be just south of the railway track within the
pedestrianised town centre, which itself is encircled by a residential area. To the west and east of the
supermarket would be the roads to Bransdon and Cransdon respectively. Whereas the former is 16km
southwest and holds 15,000 people, the latter is 25km southeast and is home to 29,000 inhabitants.
