Questions 33 40 are based on the following passage. The ancient Greeks called these dazzling stones the tears of the gods while the Romans believed them to be splinters of fallen stars. Diamonds have dazzled the imagination of people. Assessing a diamonds true value is a complicated business. There are four universal factors, so called 4Cs of the diamond trade: carat, colour, clarity and cut. These criteria provide an invaluable benchmark for determining a diamonds true worth and the basic knowledge when buying a diamond. Carat The carat is actually the measure of a diamonds weight. One carat is equivalent to 200 milligrams of weight. The word carat is derived from the word carob as traditionally, diamond traders used carob seeds to measure their diamonds. The seeds are similar in weight to the most common size of diamonds. Colour The most valuable diamonds are exceptionally white or colourless. Diamond colour is graded from D to Z. A true D diamond is exceptionally white or colourless while a Z grade is almost grey. Intriguingly, some diamonds do contain colour. Vibrant diamonds of beautiful pinks, blues and greens are called fancies.The rarest fancies of all are red diamonds. A diamonds colour grading is usually assessed against a set of master diamonds under controlled lighting conditions. Clarity A truly magnificent diamond is one that reflects light perfectly without any flaws. Anything within the diamond that disrupts the flow of light is called an inclusion. Inclusions are not usually visible to the naked eye. Inclusions are usually detected under controlled conditions. The range of clarity starts with F grade which indicates a flawless stone and concludes with I grade depending on the number of tiny clouds or mist in the stone. Cut The cut of the diamond is the only grade that is dependent on mans intervention. It is directly influenced by skilled craftsmanship of the individual diamond cutter. The art of transforming a rough stone into a polished sparkling diamond requires training and experience. A well- cut diamond must reflect light to create a magnificent and sparkling dazzle. Adapted from Just English, 2008
