"sight reading"

What exactly is sight reading for a professional orchestral audition? The NY Phil. audition list from a few years ago states the sight reading may be asked "from the standard orchestral repertoire." Therefore you can prepare ahead of time and show your ability and knowledge of the repertoire not asked on the list.

Has anyone ever taken a professional audition where literal "sight reading" (something you have never seen before) has been asked?

Also are ensemble repertoire lists posted on websites or repertoire from upcoming concerts good indicators of possible sight reading examples (of the first category)?

I have never taken a professional audition before and am planning for a community orchestra audition next year. Thanks in advance.
