English term or phrase: reading crush
I am translating a multiple choice quiz for prospective lairage operatives.
One of the items reads as follows:
''1. When moving cattle into the reception pens how should animals be held?
A) Within their own peer grouping in a pen that has the correct capacity
B) In a pen that is near to the reading crush
C) In any pen as long as it is clean''


What kind of crush is a ‘’reading’’ crush?

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

It is knowingly put as "reading crush" for wrong answer option B


Explanation:
A cattle crush is a strongly built stall or cage for holding cattle, horses, or other livestock safely while they are examined, marked, or given veterinary treatment.

Now see, either A or C is the correct answer.
B is definitely not the correct answer. So, B is wrong. How do you make an answer incorrect/wrong? by inserting wrong words. So,B is the wrong answer, since "reading crush"does not mean anything.

This strategy is often used in multiple choice questions and quizzes. So, translate it VERBATIM!

Example sentence(s):
  • Many cattle producers managed herds with nothing more than a race (alley) and a headgate (or a rope) until tagging requirements and disease control necessitated the installation of crushes.[15][16]
