VII. Read the passage carefully, then choose the correct answer.
Carbon dioxide in the atmosphere, which is primarily a result of mankind's burning of fuels, is thought to act
like the glass of a greenhouse. It absorbs heat radiation from the earth and its atmosphere, heats that otherwise would
dissipate into space. The possibility that the greenhouse effect could alter the earth's temperature has been debated for
many years. Scientists have agreed that carbon dioxide is increasing but there has been uncertainty about whether
temperatures are also increasing. The major difficulty in accepting the greenhouse effect has been the absence of
observed warming coincident with the historic carbon dioxide increase.

D. the building of greenhouse.
VIII. Read the passage carefully, then choose the correct answer.
Telecommunicating is a form of computer communication between employees homes and offices. For
employees whose jobs involve sitting at a terminal or word processor entering data or typing reports, the location
of the computer is of no consequence. If the machine can communicate over telephone lines, when the work is
completed, employees can dial the office computer from a distant site and transmit the material to their employers.
A recent survey in USA Today estimates that there are appoximately 8.7 million telecommuters. But although the
numbers are rising annually, the trend does not appear to be as significant as predicted when Business Week
published "The Portable Executive" as its cover story a few years ago. Why hasn't telecommuting become more
popular?
Clearly, change simply takes time. But in addition, there has been active resistance on the part of many
managers. These executives claim that supervising the telecommuters in a large work force scattered across the
country would be too difficult, or, at least, systems for managing them are not yet developed, thereby complicating
the manager's responsibilities.
It is also true that employees who are given the option of telecommuting are often reluctant to accept the
opportunity. Most people feel that they need regular interaction with a group, and many are concerned that they will not
have the same consideration for advancement if they are not more visible in the office setting. Some people feel
that even when a space in their homes is set aside as a work area, they never really get away from the office.
Cu 66: The author mentions all of the following as concerns of telecommuters EXCEPT_______ .
A. the lack of interaction with a group
B. the different system of supervision
C. the fact that the work space is in the home
D. the oportunities for advancement
Cu 67: How many American workers are involved in telecommuting?
A. More than predicted in Business Week
B. Fewer than estimated in USA Today
C. More than 8 million
D. Fewer than last year
Cu 68: It can be inferred from the passage that the author is _______ .
A. a statistician
B. a telecommuter
C. the manager of a group of telecommuters
D. a reporter
Cu 69: The word "resistance" could best be replaced by_______ .
A. alteration
B. consideration
C. participation
D. opposition
Cu 70: Which of the following is the main topic of the passage?
A. The failure of telecommuting
B. The advantages of telecommuting
C. A definition of telecommuting
D. An overview of telecommuting
IX. Choose the word or phrase (A, B, C or D) that best fits the blank space in the following passage.
Face-to-face conversation is a two-way process: You speak to me, I reply to you and __(71)__. Two-way
