_____(1)_______. (I) As a rule, these organisms are confined to the area near the entrance, but some
species penetrate to the darkest reaches of the cave. (II) Properly, cave life may be divided into those
forms living exclusively in caves and those that live in caves part of the time but forage in the open. The
cave cricket and some cave fish are examples of animals modified for continuous life in caves.
______(2)______. (III) Animals that live completely in caves commonly have as their diet the edible
matter, such as micro-organisms and decaying organic material, carried into the caves by streams. (IV)
Bats exemplify animals that utilize caves for resting and hibernating purposes but forage in the open for
their food. Rich deposits of guano, or bat droppings, have accumulated over the centuries in caves where
bats gather together in large group. Such detritus deposits support a variety of insects and simpler
organisms. The guano is sometimes marketed as fertilizer. The number of bats inhabiting a large cave
may be astoundingly large. _____(3)_______. (V) Because lack of sunlight prevents green-plant growth,
fungi make up the only plant life that can grow in caves. Ground waters containing dissolved organic
substances frequently provide nutrients for the fungi. In past ages people often took shelter in caves,
notably in Western Europe, the Mediterranean regions, China, southern Africa, and Chile.
_____(4)_______. Actually, during the Ice Age, people, like other animals, sought refuge in caves from
time to time. Many artefacts of Palaeolithic and Neolithic peoples have been found in refuse heaps near
the entrances of caves. Primitive paintings have been found on the walls of some caves, notably in France
and Spain. _____(5)_______.

a) Although such species are blind, as is usual among animal forms completely adapted to cave
life, their organs of touch are highly developed
b) These early cave inhabitants popularly have been called cavemen, but the term is
misleading, for it implies that a race of people at one time dwelt exclusively in caves
c) Modern critics acclaim the artistic beauty of these paintings, attributed to the Cro-Magnon, a
race of the late Palaeolithic period

living in caves

There was a land where the summers were short and chilly. The sun was situated (1) low on the sky and
the shadows of the trees were long. Once each summer a huge flock of butterflies settled in the forests of
this land. On the first mild day they were sitting on all branches of the trees,  looking for the first flowers to
unfold (2). And so it happened (3), and the butterflies sucked the honey and made themselves ready for
mating, knowing that the summer was so short, and that they only had this one day to finish their divine
decision. But in the flock of butterflies there was one who did not like its way of life  and had troubles with it,
because it knew it was not as it was meant to (4) be. The butterfly was different and was not let into the
flock – it was too different. Lonely and painful it was. Therefore, the butterfly took a decision and flew away
from the flock. It heard the flock blow the whistle: “Look, he is leaving, because he is not like us.  Good
heavens, what a weird (5) being! Happy we, that we are all alike!” But the little butterfly flew south,
pondering (6) about its difference. Warmer and warmer it grew, and higher and higher the sun shone from
the sky. The heat warmed his wings and he felt more and more melancholic without knowing why. But
suddenly its eyes caught sight of (7) a forest far below. There were flowers on the trees, and the air was
warm and humid (8). He flew down and rested on a beautiful tree filled up with (9) flowers and hundreds of
butterflies. But they all had other colours on their wings, and he felt lonely again. But all of a sudden he
saw a butterfly, who looked a little like himself. It looked lonely too, and she told him that she had flown
astray(10), and that she had quite another origin. “Loneliness,” she said. “Oh, I know it, but it helps you  to
know yourself better.” He fell in love with this beauty and they decided to stay together. “We will  stay in the
rain forest,” they said. “Although we do not belong there.” Two different butterflies – two different souls –
two different origins. And they created a new world together. A new butterfly was born, so loneliness  and
difference can lead to (11) happiness and holiness.

TV viewers around the world watched in horror last January as hundreds of thousands of Africans fled
rivers of fiery lava that spewed down the slopes of Congo's Mount Nyiragongo and flooded the streets of
Goma. ______(1)_______. Researchers have estimated that more than one billion people—approximately
20 percent of the world's population—are living in volcanic hazard zones. Experts expect the number to
rise. The rapid growth of population, urbanization, and economic development are driving more and more
people to settle around volcanoes, significantly increasing the potential loss of life and property in the
event of eruptions, said Robert Tilling, a senior volcanologist with the U.S. Geological Survey's Volcano
Hazards Program. ______(2)_______. "In the last 20 years there have been at least 80 encounters
between airliners and ash clouds, causing hundreds of millions of dollars in damage and lost revenue,"
said Tilling. Every day, tens of thousands of passengers fly over volcanically active regions such as the
North Pacific, which has more than 100 active volcanoes, and four to five ash-producing eruptions each
year. ______(3)_______. On December 15, 1989, a KLM flight carrying 231 passengers flew into a cloud
of ash that had erupted from Alaska's Redoubt volcano and drifted 150 miles away. ______(4)_______.
The plane sustained $80 million in damages. In 1995, an international network of Volcanic Ash Advisory
Centres was established to counter the increasing threat.

a) In this age of international air travel, even people not living in the vicinity of a volcano are at risk, he
noted
b) All four of the engines lost power and the plane dropped nearly two miles in altitude before the crew
could restart the engines
c) The vivid horror of that eruption, which killed about 75 people, was a stark reminder of the powerful—
and often deadly—forces that lie beneath the surface of Earth's majestic volcanoes
d) A near-fatal accident in 1989 involving a 747 jetliner alerted authorities to the increasing dangers of
drifting clouds of volcanic ash

A tramp was sitting on a park bench, feeling very tired. So, he decided to ____(1)____ and go to sleep. He
had been sleeping for about 5 minutes when a couple walked by. The man stopped, ___(2)___the tramp
______, and asked him, "Excuse me. Do you know what the time is?" The tramp replied, "I'm sorry - I don't
have a watch, so I don't know the time." The man apologised for waking the tramp and the couple walked

was a little annoyed at being ___(5)___ again, but he politely told the woman that he didn't have a watch
and didn't know the time. After the woman had gone, the tramp had an idea. He opened the bag that

Dave's a funny chap! He never wants to ___(1)___ in the evenings, but when he does, he never wants to
go home again! Last Thursday was a typical example. I phoned him and asked if he wanted to go out to
our local pub for a quick drink. At first, he said that he didn't want to - he would rather ___(2)___ and watch
the telly. But after about 10 minutes, I managed to persuade him to come to the pub. Well, we had a nice
evening, and the 'quick drink' turned into a longer drink; the more Dave and I drank, the more we wanted
to drink. The pub closed at 11 o'clock, so we had to ___(3)___then, but Dave wanted to ___(4)___and
persuaded me that we should go to the nightclub in town to continue our 'conversation'. There weren't
many people in the nightclub, but that didn't stop us from having a good time! I finally ___(5)___ home at 5

Last week I telephoned a computer company to complain about a computer that I had bought. I had had
the computer for just 2 days when it stopped working. I thought it would be a short dialogue where they
would agree to replace it or fix it but I was wrong. They kept me waiting for over half an hour while they
played me some awful music. Every 2 minutes a voice interrupted the music and said, "Please hold. All our
operatives are busy at the moment", and then the music continued. This always___(1)___ me______, both
because I hate the music they play, and because I know that I'm paying to listen to it. Anyway, eventually
someone answered the phone and took all my details, then put me through to the technical support
department. I then had to give all my details again. The person asked me something about the 'BIOS
Settings', and I told him that I didn't understand what he meant. Then he started talking to me as if I was 6
years old - he even asked me to check to see if I had plugged the computer in! I hate being patronised like
that so I told him that he didn't need to___(2)___to me. That was a mistake because he became even less
friendly and tried to___(3)___me______ saying that the problem was caused by the software I had
installed. He___(4)___about how the software must be causing the problem, using lots of technical
language, and tried to persuade me that it wasn't the company's problem. Eventually I interrupted him and
told him that I hadn't installed any software, and the only software on the computer had been installed by
his company before I received the computer. When he heard this, he just said "Oh" and then put me on
hold again, so I had to listen to that awful music for another 10 minutes. Finally, someone from the
marketing department spoke to me and told me that he was very sorry that my computer didn't work, but
they were very busy and wouldn't be able to send an engineer to fix it for another 2 weeks! But the thing
that really___(5)___me______ was that he said that if it was urgent I could pay £50 and the engineer
would come the next day!

the point that she started shaking. I tried my best to ___(5)___it______, and even offered to help her with
some of the work, but I don't think she'll be able to relax again until the project is complete.

Recently, there have been a number of programmes on British TV concerning archaeology, and I must say
that I’ve been fascinated by them. The other day I saw a programme that followed an archaeological dig in
London. In the introduction to the programme, the presenter told us that the name ‘London’ was ______the
old Roman name for the settlement – ‘Londinium’. Anyway, they had ______an old, rusty piece of metal,
but when they cleaned it the experts discovered that it was, in fact, a sword. They had already ______the
history of the site, and thought that the sword might ______to the Roman period. In order to be sure, they
had to ______ it ______to a university for ‘Carbon dating’, which enables scientists to tell exactly how old
something is. At the end of the programme they told us that the sword was, indeed, Roman. I was amazed
by the idea that a Roman soldier had lost his sword so long ago, and now I could see it on the screen in
front of me in 2001.

Bob: Are you OK, Jane?

Bob: Oh! I'm sorry to hear that. What happened?
Jane: Well, we were in a bar and I was chatting to another friend about clothes and jewellery and that sort
of thing, when Jackie suddenly ___(2)___at me, saying that it was alright for me because I always had
good clothes and that I didn't understand what it was like for people who couldn't afford to buy the latest
fashions.
Bob: Wow! It sounds like she might be a bit jealous or resentful. Did you know she felt like that?
Jane: No! I didn't have a clue until she___(3)___at me. She must have been ___(4)___it______. She'd
been really friendly towards me until then.
Bob: I suppose it all came out because she'd had a couple of drinks.
Jane: Yes. I guess so. I wanted to talk about it with her but she just stormed off - I haven't seen her since,
and she won't return my calls.
Bob: Perhaps she's embarrassed about it - maybe Sue could help - she and Jackie have been friends for
years.
Jane: Mmm. Good idea ...
Jane: Sorry to___(5)___Sue; I can see you're busy, but I wondered if I could have a word with you later.

Last Saturday, Dr. Grammar decided to go to the beach with his girlfriend. As you probably know, Britain is
not famous for its sunny, dry weather, so Dr. Grammar wanted to use this opportunity to ___(1)___some
sunshine, and improve his suntan. Dr. Grammar has very pale skin because he lives in Britain, and
because he spends most of his time indoors reading grammar books. Luckily, his girlfriend is a very
practical woman and she brought some suntan lotion with her, to prevent them both from getting sun burnt.
After she had ___(2)___some of the lotion__(3)____ Dr. Grammar's back, he ___(4)___and started to
read his grammar books (he's obsessed!). But after a while he got very hot and decided to go for a swim to
cool down. However, he forgot to reapply more suntan lotion, which had been ___(5)___by the sea. It only
took about 20 minutes for his back to get very burnt. He ___(6)___a T-shirt ___(7)___and sat on his towel,
watching the other people on the beach. Just as a couple of rather attractive women were walking past,
Dr. Grammar's girlfriend opened her eyes. Although she is practical, she is also rather jealous, so she
slapped Dr. Grammar on the back and told him to stop ___(8)___the women___(9)___. She was surprised
when Dr. Grammar screamed, until (after he stopped crying) he showed her how burnt his back was.
Despite seeing his very red back, which had a white hand-print in the middle of it, she was not sympathetic
- as she said, it would teach him either to remember to use suntan lotion, or to avoid ___(10)___women!

lie down / soak up / put on / wash off / eye up

At this time of year, more people feel depressed than at other times of year. Although people have been
getting depressed for thousands of years, it is not something that we fully understand. Some people say
that depression is caused by events in your past that make you feel bad or guilty, and that these
feelings____(1)____ at you until you deal with them, but psychologists say that this is more likely to lead to
other types of behaviour such as aggression or obsession. Some people say that it is because we see
other people having a good time with their friends and families over Christmas and New Year, and it
reminds us that our relationships are not so good, which ___(2)___us______. Others say, perhaps
jokingly, that it is the stress of shopping and organising Christmas and New Year celebrations that
___(3)___ us ______. I wouldn’t disagree with this, but being ___(4)___is not the same as being
depressed. When you are depressed, you do not see it as a temporary situation, even if it is. You also lack
energy, so even if friends invite you to parties, you often don’t ___(5)___ going to them. Depression can
be difficult to overcome; telling someone who is depressed to ___(6)___will not help, but being with them
and listening to them might. Another explanation is not connected to psychology; it’s biological. Apparently,
when we don’t get enough sunshine, we become depressed and behave in less friendly ways. If this is
true, then perhaps the solution for some people might be to have a holiday in a hot country – it certainly
wouldn’t do any harm!

Did you see the match last night? Ramsgate and Margate were ____(1)_____ to see who would win the
South East Region League Cup. It was exciting from the moment they ____(2)_____ to the moment the
referee blew the final whistle. By the end of the first half, the score was 2 all and Ramsgate's best striker
had been carried off the field after being injured. During the half time interval, the only discussion you
could hear was about which of the 2 substitutes, Smith or Cole, the Ramsgate manager would send on to
replace the injured striker. When the second half started and the players ran onto the pitch, it was clear
that the manager had ____(3)_____ the new player on the team; Cole. The crowd started chanting,
"____(4)_____ Cole, we need another goal!" Although there were lots of chances and a few shots that hit
the goal posts, after 30 minutes the score was still the same. Then the crowd noticed that Smith was
____(5)_____ at the side of the pitch. The manager made another substitution and sent on Smith to
replace Cole. With 5 minutes to go, Smith got the ball from Jones and fired it at the goal. What a shot! It hit
the back of the goal before the keeper realised it had been kicked, and the crowd went wild. 5 minutes
later it was all over; Ramsgate became the new League Cup holders, and Smith became the town's new
hero.

If you are in a country where English is not commonly spoken, finding opportunities to practise your
spoken English, and receive help with pronunciation, can be difficult. However, wherever you are in the
world, you will nearly always be able to find examples of written English. I can't think of a country where
you can't buy or borrow novels, newspapers or magazines, or get access to the WWW. It's important to
choose a text that you are interested in, not only because it will provide you with the type of vocabulary
and structures that you are likely to need, but also because your interest will provide you with the
necessary motivation to actively study. It's also important to choose a text that is at about the right level for
you - you'll know how difficult it is by reading the first few lines. When you are reading, you should
____(1)_____words, phrases and structures that you can use in your own English later. It's a good idea to
carry a small notebook with you so that you can ____(2)_____ any examples that you think might be
useful. The first time you read a text, it's usually best not to stop and reach for your dictionary or notebook.
If you read the text quickly and don't worry about the bits you are not sure about, you will get an
understanding of the general meaning of the text, and you'll probably be surprised at how much you
understand. However, when you have finished reading the text, you should ____(3)_____ the parts that
you weren't sure about. By studying these parts, you are not just practising your English but learning
something new. If the problem is an unknown word, you can ____(4)_____it _______ in a dictionary.
Translation dictionaries are very useful, but you should also use a monolingual English dictionary. Collins,
Oxford, Cambridge and Longman all publish good dictionaries for students of English. They provide the
meaning and pronunciation of words and phrases, and help you to use them correctly. A grammar book
will be able to help you with the general structure of the sentence. If you can photocopy the text, or save it
on a computer, you can also create your own exercises. Remove the examples you want to practise (i.e.
items of vocabulary, or particular grammatical features such as articles, verb forms or prepositions). Then,
later in the week, you can try to fill in the gaps, just like you are doing in this test exercise. Finally, you
should keep another notebook where you can ____(5)_____ the notes you have made in your small
notebook. You can also include information you have found in grammar books, and lists of useful words.
However, you must promise yourself that you will open, read and use this notebook at least once a week
because the real key to learning English, or anything else for that matter, is to practise, practise, practise!

The damage caused by sunburn is well known - most people have experienced sore or painful skin as a
result of spending too much time in the sun. But this is not the only effect - scientists tell us that sunburn
can also increase your chances of getting skin cancer.
This is becoming a serious problem in Britain. Many people here think that it isn't hot enough to get burnt
(which is not true), and others are so happy to see the sun that they forget about protection in their
desperation to turn their white skin brown.
So, if you're thinking of ____(1)_____ the beach, don't just ____(2)_____and ____(3)_____on your towel;
make sure that you ____(4)_____some sun cream. Even if you're not intending to sunbathe - perhaps you
just want to explore the shoreline to see what has been ____(5)_____- you still need protection, so make
sure you ____(6)_____sun cream or a T-shirt. Spending time in the sun is great, but not so great that you
should risk your life to do it!

John was fed up with the rat race. He had spent his life working hard and striving to achieve his ambitions.
When some of his college friends had ____(1)_____of university and ____(2)_____to India to ‘find
themselves’, he had thought that they were just lazy and self-obsessed. So, after graduating he had found
a good job with a large multi-national company, and worked his way up the career ladder. He had happily
____(3)_____people____(4)_____to get to his current position, but now he was at the top, he realised
what it was like to have it done to himself as his juniors tried to develop their own careers. He began to
consider his options, and wondered if he would be able to ____(5)_____without his salary, company car,
and expensive flat in the centre of the city. He began to think how nice it would be to live a peaceful life
and not treat everyone he met as a potentially useful contact. Would he really be happier without the
hustle and bustle of city life? He knew that his doctor would be happier – he had told John on many
occasions that it was his lifestyle that was causing his stomach ulcers. But his doctor had recommended
____(6)_____somewhere for a couple of weeks, not the rest of his life. With no wife or children to
consider, the decision to____(7)_____and go was his alone. What should he do? He certainly couldn’t
continue as he was.

Of course, though the winter is dark and cold there is Christmas to look forward to, especially for children.
In Britain children wait for Christmas day morning, when they find their gifts from Father Christmas either at
the bottom of their beds or by the fireplace. It is customary to leave a glass of brandy and a mince pie for
Father Christmas, which ____(3)_____the cold. Of course, after drinking so much brandy you would think
that Father Christmas would ____(4)_____in the snow and lie there all night until his fingers and toes have
completely ____(5)_____! I’ve never heard of this happening though, and children all over the world
continue to get their gifts on time.

stop little problems from getting you down and will ensure that you get rich and successful with the

remedy to get rid of depression
E) has got the title which is about the anxiety of being discriminated from the society; what’s more, the
depression at work, at home and in need of money

With William Shakespeare, English drama reaches its greatest heights. Despite many stories
surrounding him, facts about his life are few. He was born in Stratford-on-Avon, where his birthplace has
become one of the most popular tourist attractions in Britain. In 1582, he married Ann Hathaway, by
whom he had three children. Of the next ten years of his life we know very little. For reasons unknown to
us, he set off for London to become an actor and try his hand at play-writing. His attempts, apparently,

During the second half of the 18 th century, the stability of the Augustan Age was gradually lost in a
period of social change and growing unrest. The Industrial Revolution was turning England from an
agricultural nation into an industrial one, and large numbers of farm workers were forced to seek
employment in the new factories in the towns, which often resulted in long hours and miserable working
conditions for those who were lucky enough to find a job there and poverty and wretchedness for those
who were not. The period of industrialisation brought wealth and prosperity to the country at large, but
the enthusiasm with which it was received by some people was not shared by all.

___________.

A) the farmers didn’t have any trouble adapting to the conditions of industrial age

D) not everybody was satisfied with the conditions of Industrial Age
E) a large number of people were made redundant in the late Industrial Age

It started out to be a simple exploratory operation. Then, suddenly, the patient’s heart stopped. Her
brain waves started levelling off. The medical team immediately began emergency treatment to try to
start the heart again. At last the chief surgeon announced that the patient had died. Minutes later, much
to almost everyone’s amazement, the “dead” patient came back to life. Her heart started, and her brain
waves began to assume normal patterns. Later she told the doctors that she had been fully aware of
everything that had happened while “dead”. She believed that she came back to life because she
wanted so badly to live longer. She said death was not frightening, but she wasn’t ready to go yet. The

Perhaps you think of Pinocchio's Blue Fairy, the Good Witch of the West from “The Wizard of Oz”, or
Peter Pan's “Tinkerbell” when you imagine a fairy. But in fact, fairies don't like to be seen by people at

The environment is something you are very familiar with. It's everything that makes up our surroundings
and affects our ability to live on the earth—the air we breathe, the water that covers most of the earth's
surface, the plants and animals around us, and much more. In recent years, scientists have been
carefully examining the ways that people affect the environment. They have found that we are causing
air pollution, deforestation, acid rain, and other problems that are dangerous both to the earth and to
ourselves. These days, when you hear people talk about “the environment”, they are often referring to

It’s easy to understand how a bird can fly – it’s lightweight and has wings. But how does a huge airplane
get off the ground? The plane’s engine pushes the plane forward. As it moves, air flowing around the

enough lift to overtake gravity. When the plane is in the air, thrust from the engines incessantly pushes
the plane forward.

Early in the morning on October 12, 1492, a sailor looked out to the horizon from the bow of his sailing
ship, the Pinta, and saw land. After 10 long weeks at sea, from the port of Palos, Spain, Columbus and
his crews saw the New World. The following day, 90 crew members from Columbus's three-ship fleet
set foot on the island of Guanahani in the Bahamas and planted the flag of their sponsors, King
Ferdinand and Queen Isabella of Spain. Columbus continued his exploration, discovering other lands.
The first Columbus Day celebration in the United States took place on October 12, 1792 – 300 years
after his first discovery – but it still wasn't an official holiday for another 100 years. Days commemorating
special events like Columbus Day or birthdays of famous leaders, like Martin Luther King Jr., become
national holidays and help us remember the important contributions these individuals made to our
country.

22) According to the passage, it is wrong to say that ____________.

A) Columbus and his crew had a voyage lasting seventy days before they reached the land
B) Columbus could reach the land of America soon after he saw it
C) King Ferdinand and Queen Isabella of Spain supported Columbus in his researches
D) Columbus decided to direct his ships to the New World after he saw the land
E) Columbus found the other islands after he set foot on the island of Guanahani

23) The underlined word in the passage is closest in meaning to __________.

A) reminding
B) remembering
C) rewarding
D) recollecting
E) discussing
24) One can understand from the passage that the Columbus Day _________.

A) has been celebrated by the American people for approximately 300 years
B) has brought more benefit to America than the things that Martin Luther made

Eschatology is a doctrine concerning life after death and the final stage of the world. The origin of this
doctrine is almost as old as humanity; archaeological evidence of customs in the Old Stone Age
indicates a basic concept of immortality. Even in early stages of religious development, speculation
about things to come is not wholly limited to the fate of the individual. Such devastating natural
phenomena as floods, conflagrations, cyclones, earthquakes, and volcanic eruptions have always
suggested the possibility of the end of the world. Higher forms of eschatological thought are the product
of a complex social organism and an increased knowledge of natural science. Often myths of
astrological origin, the concept of retribution, or the hope of deliverance from present oppressions
provided the material or motive for highly developed eschatologies.

25) As it is clear in the passage, Eschatology ____.

A) provided the early human beings with the way of continuing life forever
B) has recently been approved by the scientists as a field of study
C) is derived from the idea of immortality according to the archaeological studies
D) contributed much to the development of new ideas in both astrology and science
E) is entirely confined to natural science

26) It can be easily understood from the passage that the natural phenomena which demolish the
surrounding ______.

A) were tried to be explained with the field of Eschatology, but failed


B) are going to cause the human being to become extinct according to Eschatology
C) do not have any relationship with the field of Eschatology
D) are not religious themes but natural problems
E) were thought to bring life on the earth to end

27) According to the paragraph, the more people know about the natural science, ______.

A) the more they are interested in the varieties of Eschatology


B) the less they are enthusiastic about the concept of Eschatology
C) the higher they reach the rank in the society
D) the more certain they have become about the accurate existence of Eschatology
E) the more accurate results they have in Eschatology
"Why is My Loyalty Questioned?" has been asked by people at different times during America's history.
They're surprised that others might wonder if they are loyal to the country that they choose to live in and
have always loved and supported. After the attack on Pearl Harbour during World War II, Japanese
Americans were discriminated against as they were put into relocation camps simply because of their
ethnic background. Later, they proved their loyalty by volunteering to defend America, the very country
that mistreated them. It's hard to imagine that it could still happen today. Since September 11th, 2001
lots of people question Arab Americans just because some terrorists are Arabs. We learned that good
people are good people no matter what their cultural background is.

28) It is stated in the passage that people who have somehow chosen to live in America ____.

A) have tried to give many harms to the country


B) think that the quality of being loyal to the country is of great importance
C) have been constantly questioned by the government about their loyalty for many years
D) cannot understand why they are asked whether they are faithful in the country or not
E) share the same opinion about being loyal to the country with the ones who have just moved in

29)We learn from the passage that Japanese Americans _____________.

A) refused to defend America since they were treated badly by the citizen there
B) have never had the opportunity to prove their loyalty to America
C) had to battle against the Arabs in order to show their loyalty to America
D) have always been singled out just like the Arabs throughout the history of America
E) were sent to relocation camps after the attack on Pearl Harbour during World War II

30) This passage is mainly concerned with ______.

A) the fact that the foreigners in America have been asked about their loyalty
B) the event that Arab Americans betrayed the United States of America
C) the fact that Japanese Americans were treated wrongly throughout the history of America
D) the difference between Arab Americans and Japanese Americans
E) the reason why Japanese Americans were discriminated in America

William Blake is the English poet, painter, and engraver, who created a unique form of illustrated verse;
his poetry, inspired by mystical vision, is among the most original in the language. Blake, the son of a
hosier, was born in London, where he lived most of his life. Largely self-taught, he was, however, widely
read. As a child, Blake wanted to become a painter. He was sent to drawing school and at the age of 14
was apprenticed to James Basire, an engraver. After his 7-year term was over, he studied briefly at the
Royal Academy, but he rebelled against the aesthetic doctrines of its president, Sir Joshua Reynolds.
Blake did, however, later establish friendships with Henry Fuseli, whose works may have influenced
him. In 1784 he set up a print shop; although it failed after a few years, for the rest of his life Blake
hardly earned his living as an engraver and illustrator.

31) ) As it is mentioned in the passage, William Blake ________.


A) intended to become a painter, but had to abandon his purpose in 1784
B) is chiefly famous for his career as an engraver and painter
C) almost completely gained the knowledge by himself
D) created a new style in the structure of painting
E) was taught nothing by the people around him

32) It can be inferred from the passage that at the age of 21, William Blake _________.

A) succeeded in opening a print shop and made great profit from it


B) started to lead his life on his own by selling his masterpieces in poems
C) could become very rich only when he started to sell his poems
D) had to work for James Basire, an engraver for seven years
E) attended the Royal Academy for a short time

33) According to the writer of the passage, Henry Fuseli’s works ______.

A) are likely to have made changes in the way Blake thought and behaved in those days
B) are the main reason why William Blake quit going to the Royal Academy
C) were the source of inspiration for Blake to create new poems
D) caused Blake to yell against the aesthetic doctrines of the Royal Academy’s president, Sir
Joshua Reynolds
E) certainly affected William Blake in any way

Bibliography is stemming from “the writing of books”, originally, the writing or copying of books; since
the mid-18th century, the word has come to mean a list of books or other forms of written material on a
subject, or the technique of compiling such a list. Certain kinds of information are supplied in a
bibliography: authors, titles, editions, and dates and places of publication; style of type, book size, and
other physical characteristics may also be included. Frequently, bibliographies are annotated, that is,
brief notes indicating the subject treated or commenting on the usefulness of a book are appended.
Bibliographies, essential to scholars and those involved professionally with books—collectors,
librarians, and dealers—can be useful sources of information for all serious readers.

34) According to the paragraph, it is obvious that “the writing of books” ____.

A) has lost its basic meaning and merged into a new form of content
B) has been converted a little with the addition of the interpretation “list”
C) towards the first half of the 18th century, shaped into a new form
D) has uniquely included extra meanings such as “list, copy and other forms”
E) has gained great significance after the second half of the 18 th century

35) It is implied in the passage that Bibliographies, rarely, _____________.


A) comprise of the rendering of the information and benefit about the books noted down in the major
book
B) give purely the names of the book, authors, titles, editions, and dates and places of publication;
style of type, book size, and other physical characteristics
C) are in lack of the sufficient explanation about the biography of the authors whose book has been
held as an example
D) find it sufficient to mention the essential information on the resources by which the readers can
easily reach at those books
E) do not refer to the origin of the resource because of the fact that it covers much place at the back of
the trace

36) One can easily understand from the passage that the main benefit of the bibliographies
________.

A) is to lead all the expert readers to the resource of finding the biography of the authors of the trace
B) is to arouse all the people absorbed in reading these traces to make more crucial study on the
subject they are interested in
C) is to shuffle all the documents related with the substantial theme of the subject, which is obligatory
for the writer
D) is to convey the real intention of the writer; by the way, he can easily get through his aim
E) is to provide the readers to help themselves to have a pause in this life and think about the subject
they are reading on

What we dream at night is not as important as whom we dream about. More precisely, the number of
people in our dreams is the important element. The more people in our dreams, the happier we will be.

How long may a man lie in the ground before he rots? The answer is, “it depends on how deep you bury
him”. Bury a corpse less than a meter and you leave it accessible to insects and worms, which will
reduce it to a skeleton in less than a year. Bury it two meters deep and it will retain some flesh for at
least a decade. The only way to remain completely undamaged is to be frozen or mummified. The
Russian horsemen found in the tombs of the Ukok plateau owe their preservation to the water that
seeped into them and were then frozen by permafrost. Most mummies are created by very warm or cold
dry air drying them soon after death.

The question of who the American Indians are and how they came to live in North America has long
puzzled scientists. The most popular modern theory says that the Indians came from Siberia to Alaska
when the Bering Strait was not underwater. At that time there was a land bridge between Asia and
America. This “land bridge” was a result of the fact that much of the water that used to cover the region
became frozen in glaciers during the Ice Age. This left the land dry and bare. With the water gone,
wandering bands of Siberian tribes simply walked over from what is now modern Russia to what is now
the modern United States.

__________. water thoroughly

The 50-million-year-old fossils of an ancient whale found in the Himalayan foothills of Pakistan give
strong evidence that modern whales are descended from a four-legged land-dwelling animal. The fossils
consist of part of the skull, some teeth, and the well-preserved middle ear of an animal that was 6 to 8
feet long, weighed 350 pounds, had a wolf-like snout, and had two foot-long jaws with sharp, triangular
teeth. It is the middle ear which suggests that the ancient whale lived on land. Analysis indicated that

retained that far.

People have been concerned with their hair since ancient times. In 1500 B.C., the Assyrians, inhabiting
the area known today as Northern Iraq, were the world's first true hairstylists. Their skills at cutting,
curling, layering and dyeing hair were known throughout the Middle East. In fact, they were obsessed
with their hair, which was oiled, perfumed, and tinted. A fashionable courtier wore his hair cut in neat
geometric layers. Kings, soldiers, and noblewomen had their hair curled with a fire-heated iron bar,
probably the world's first curling iron. So important was hair styling in Assyria that law dictated certain
types of hairstyles according to a person's position and employment. Facial hair was also important.
Men grew beards down to their chests and had them clipped in layers. High-ranking women in both
Egypt and Assyria wore fake beards during official court business to show their equal authority with
men.

Every year in late December, a southward-moving current warms the water along the Pacific coast of
Peru. Because the warm current arrives around Christmas, the Peruvians named it El Nino, "boy-child."
Until the mid-1970s, El Nino was an unrecognized local phenomenon, until scientists began to realize
that El Nino, later named El Nino Southern Oscillation (ENSO), is part of a huge ocean and atmosphere
that is felt as far away as Australia and Indonesia. Every few years the El Nino current is warmer than
normal, causing greater ocean warming and consequently changes in the normal patterns of sea and
surface temperatures.

are called falling stars. As meteors travel through space, they sometimes fall into the Earth’s
gravitational pull and the friction between these rocks and the atmosphere causes most of them to burn
up before they reach the surface of the earth. At times, however, very pieces of meteors fall to Earth
and although they are burned up to a large extent, some pieces do reach the surface. These are then
called meteorites. The largest meteorite to have been found is the Hoba meteorite. It was found in

Cosmetics have been used for thousands of years to improve the appearances of people and also to
help keep them clean and healthy. We know that cosmetics were often used in ancient Egypt. Many
beautiful jars and bottles which held oils and perfumes, have been found, and can be seen in museums.
Men, in some primitive tribes and societies, also paint their faces and bodies. This is usually done to

The technology with the most potential to reshape the world energy economy in the century ahead (38)
may be the fuel cell. The principle behind fuel cells was first discovered in 1829, nearly (39) 50 years
before the first internal-combustion engine. Fuel cells are electrochemical devices that (40) combine
hydrogen and oxygen in an electrolyte fluid (a solution of ions that conducts (41) an electric current),
creating an electrical charge across a membrane. The reaction produces a steady (42) flow of electricity.
Unlike most power plants, which use mechanically spinning generators, fuel cells have no moving parts

Answer the questions according to the passage below;

Flu - the short name for influenza - is a highly contagious infection that causes fever, chills, dry cough,
sore throat, runny or stuffy nose, as well as headache, muscle aches, and often extreme fatigue. Flu
usually is a mild disease in healthy children, young adults, and middle-aged people. However, it can
be life threatening in older adults. Flu viruses change all the time. For this reason, you need to get a flu
shot every year. To give your body time to build the proper defense, it's important to get a flu shot

Answer the following questions according to the paragraph below.

Energy is essential for all life. Life is based upon the conversion, utilisation, storage, and transfer of
energy. Through photosynthesis, plants convert solar energy into chemical energy used in growth and
propagation. Some plants are eaten by animals, which may themselves be eaten by carnivorous animals.
At each stage of this process, some of the chemical energy stored in plant or animal tissue is used for
growth and propagation, while most of it (more than 90% of it, in fact) is dissipated as heat. Human
beings, like no other species, have learnt how to convert energy from one form into other, more useful
forms, for warmth and transportation. Although some of this energy comes from renewable resources,
most today is obtained by burning fossil fuels. Unfortunately, burning fossil fuels releases by-products as
well as useful energy, many of which are harmful to the surface biosphere, through air pollution and
climate change

12) It is stated in the passage that for it to be used by living beings ________.

A) energy must come out in various forms


B) energy has to be put through several processes

D) energy has to be stored in human body
E) humans must be equipped with certain organs

13) After the process of photosynthesis by plants ________.

A) chemical energy takes the form of solar energy


B) growth is achieved by plants
C) solar energy loses much of its utility
D) no other thing is required by plants for growth
E) all the energy converted into chemical energy is used by the plant involved

14) According to the passage, not all energy ________.

A) can be converted into chemical energy


B) leads to growth and propagation to the plant
C) is used for growth and propagation by plants
D) can be said to be useful for plants
E) seems to hasten the process of growth

15) The passage says that humans are unique ________.

A) in that they can change the solar energy into chemical energy
B) as they have many talents which animals lack in
C) as a result of their ability to construct and destroy
D) and this aspect can be observed in their lives
E) because they can utilize solar energy for warmth and transportation

16) The basic source of energy today, according to the passage, ________.

A) is made up of renewable resources

46) excluded actions directly related to survival and reproduction. Yet, there is wide
47) disagreement what constitutes art, and here is none single definition that is widely agreed
48) upon. A common view is that art requires a creative and unique perception of both the
49) artist and audience. For example, a commonly contemporary critic of most
50) modern painting must be, "my five-year old could have painted that"-implying whether the
51) work is somehow less worthy the title "art," both because the viewer fails to find meaning

pastoral future, filled with/of happy, simple folk who call themselves the Eloi. This appearance turns
out/into to be deceptive. The Traveller soon discovers that the class structure of his own time has in fact
persisted, and the human race has diverged from/into two branches. The wealthy, leisure classes appear
to have evolved into the ineffectual, not very bright Eloi he has already seen; but the once-downtrodden
working classes have evolved into the bestial Morlocks-- cannibal hominids resembling albino apes
(Homo sapiens), who toil underground maintaining the machinery that keep the Eloi--their flocks--docile
and plentiful. Both species, having adapted to/towards their routines, are of distinctly sub-human
intelligence. Soon after/when his arrival he rescues Weena, a female Eloi he found drowning in a river.
Much for/to his surprise she is grateful to him and insists on following him. After some adventures and the
eventual death of Weena at/in the hands of the Morlocks, the narrator returns to his machine and travels
into the far future. There he sees the last few living things on/in a dying Earth, before returning to his time
to tell his story to friends. Then he attempts to time travel again and disappears forever onto/into time.
The story reflects Wells' political views; he was a committed communist, and the narrator reasons that
the state he sees is the outcome on/of capitalist class structures. The novel may also have influenced the
movie Metropolis.

(I) A play is anything written for performance by actors

(II) The Tragedy developed as a performance associated with religious and civic festivals, typically
enacting or developing upon well-known themes in history or mythology

A play is a classical literary form that has continued to evolve over the years, comprised chiefly of dialog
between characters, usually intended for dramatic / theatrical performance rather than reading. During
the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries opera developed as a combination of poetry, drama, and music.
Nearly all drama was in verse form until comparatively recently._____(92)____. Tragedies were generally
very serious in theme and treated important conflicts in human nature, but were not necessarily "tragic"

theatre does not in general adhere to any of these restrictions of form or theme.___(93)_____. Many
contemporary writers have taken advantage of the dialogue-centred character of plays as a way of
presenting literary work that is intended simply to be read, not performed.

Turkey's dynamic economy is a complex mix of modern industry and ___along with a traditional
agriculture sector that in 2001 still accounted for 40% of employment. It has a strong and rapidly growing
private sector, yet the state still plays a ___ role in basic industry, banking, transport, and communication.
The most important industry - and largest export - is textiles and clothing, which is almost ___ in private
hands. In recent years the economic situation has been marked by erratic economic growth and serious
imbalances. Real GNP growth has exceeded 6% in many years, but this strong expansion has been ___
by sharp declines in output in 1994, 1999, and 2001. Meanwhile, the public sector fiscal deficit has
regularly exceeded 10% of GDP - due in large part to the huge ___ of interest payments, which in 2001
___ more than 50% of central government spending - while inflation has remained in the high double digit
range. Perhaps because of these problems, foreign direct investment in Turkey remains low - less than
USD 1 billion ___. In late 2000 and early 2001 a growing trade deficit and serious weaknesses in the
banking sector plunged the economy into crisis - forcing Ankara to float the lira and pushing the country
into recession. Results in 2002 were much better, because of strong financial support from the IMF and
tighter fiscal policy. Continued slow global growth and serious political ___ in the Middle East cast a
shadow over growth prospects in the future.

41) Find the sentence which summarizes the paragraph below best;

Everyone is part of today's environmental problems. We all consume energy and material goods to make
our standard of living better, but such consumption produces pollution which gives rise to poorer air
quality, acid rain, ozone depletion and very probably global warming. However, we can all equally be part
of the solution. Sustainable development requires people to share their responsibility for this Earth, and
empowers people to take action to overcome some of the difficulties society as a whole faces in trying to
secure a cleaner future whilst maintaining a stable economy. Sustainable development encourages a
sense of responsible citizenship - a world citizenship - through which we can all learn to do our bit.

A) Environmental resources aren’t infinite enough to sustain humans indefinitely.


B) Pollution is increasing day by day because of lack of concern for environment.
C) Humans must undertake the responsibility of dealing with the problems arising out of using the

Lakes are one of the planet's most important freshwater resources providing water for domestic,

The Icehotel in Jukkasjärvi, Sweden, is the world's largest hotel made entirely (61) of ice. The hotel's size
changes every year, because each spring the hotel melts. Each fall (62) workers have to build it again.
Construction on the hotel begins every October, when workers use cannons to blast 30,000 tons of snow
onto a special frame. Then, they cover the snow with thousands of tons of ice from the nearby Torne
River. After it's finished (63), the hotel has about 60 rooms, an ice church, an ice art exhibition, and an ice
theater—but no skating rink. The hotel's tables, chairs, and even beds are made of ice! But what is it like
actually staying in the hotel? Inside the hotel the temperature is about 23 degrees Fahrenheit (-5 degrees
Celsius). The cold doesn't seem to stop (64) people from flocking to the hotel, though. In 2002 it had
more than 14,000 overnight (65) guests! The hotel workers suggest that guests wear at least three layers
of clothing. And at night, guests sleep "in very warm sleeping bags," Icehotel spokesperson Helen
Sjöholm said. The floors do get slippery. To keep guests from sliding around, "our staff puts fresh white
snow on [the floor] and rubs it everyday," explained Sjöholm. The Icehotel may be cold, but the village of
Oymyakon in eastern Siberia, Russia, is colder. Named the world's coldest inhabited village by Guinness
World Records, Oymyakon's temperature can fall as low as -94 degrees Fahrenheit (-70 degrees
Celsius). But even that temperature falls short of (66) the Boomerang Nebula, the coldest place in the

Narcissism is the pattern of traits(68) and behaviors which involve obsession with(69) one's self to the
exclusion of others and the egotistic and ruthless(70) pursuit of one's gratification, dominance and
ambition. Psychologists and psychiatrists believe all individuals have, out of need for survival, a certain
amount of egoism, which ideally takes the form of healthy self-esteem and self-confidence. However,
individuals who have excessive(71), unhealthy amounts of these traits are considered narcissistic. In
addition to(72) exaggerated self-esteem, narcissists are also characterized by a lack of empathy, that is,
a lack of sensitivity to the feelings of others. The term narcissism was coined(73) by Sigmund Freud who
named the phenomenon after the figure of Narcissus. Narcissus was a handsome Greek youth who
rejected(74) the desperate advances of the nymph Echo. As a punishment, he was doomed(75) to fall in
love with his own reflection in a pool of water. Unable to consummate his love, Narcissus pined away and
changed into the flower that bears his name.

Answer the question according to the passage below;

The first zoos were private menageries, usually belonging to kings. After the French Revolution, the
Paris zoo was opened to the public. Over time, the mission of zoos has shifted from simply displaying
exotic animals, to scientific study (London Zoo was the world's first scientific zoo in 1828), and, latterly, to
breeding them, and in particular maintaining populations of animals that are endangered or even extinct in
the wild.

B) the animals extinct in the wild can be seen in all zoos
C) zoos have undergone radical change both in ownership and in purpose
D) the French Revolution aroused a new interest in animals
E) zoos have helped certain animals become popular

Most modern zoos keep animals in naturalistic enclosures. These are large enough for the animals to
exercise in, and to have some privacy. Zoo visitors occasionally find this frustrating, but overall the
experience is improved both for the animals and for the people who come to see them. Recent clever
designs encourage the animals to prefer locations where they can be observed without being aware of it,
for instance by having a darkened viewing window at the back of a shelter where the animals go to
escape mid-day heat.

10) The paragraph above gives information mainly about___________.


A) how nutritional needs of zoo animals are met
B) what the visitors of zoos must and mustn’t do in zoos
C) the living conditions of animals in their natural habitats

Answer the questions according to the passage below;

Aristotle (384-322 B.C.) was born in the city of Stagira in Macedonia. His father, Nichomacus, was the
King Amyntas of Macedonia's personal physician. In 367, at the age of 17, Aristotle went to Athens to
attend the Academy founded by Plato, where he stayed until the founder's death in 347. Then Aristotle
left Athens, traveling around until 343 when he became tutor for Amyntas' grandson, Alexander. In 336
Philip of Macedonia was assassinated. Aristotle returned to Athens in 335. Upon his return to Athens,
Aristotle lectured for twelve years in a place that came to be known as the Lyceum. Aristotle's style of
lecturing involved walking around in a covered walkway, for which reason Aristotle was called

Answer the question according to the passage;

Relationships between humans and dogs are often characterized by strong emotional bonds, which run
both ways. Consequently, dogs are popular as pets and companions, independent of any utilitarian
considerations. Dogs are quite dependent on human companionship and may suffer poor health without

Don Quixote by Cervantes is often nominated as the best work of fiction ever._________. The former
were mostly disconnected stories with little exploration of the inner life of even the main character.
The latter, of course, is focused almost always on the psychological evolution of a single character. In
Part I, Quixote imposes himself on his environment. By Part II, he is no longer physically capable, but
people know about him, "having read his adventures", and so, he needs to do less to maintain his
image. By his deathbed, he has begun to assume a new identity, including a nickname, "the Good",

The term "civil disobedience" characterizes the active refusal to/of obey certain laws, demands and
commands of a government or of an occupying power without resorting with/to physical violence.
Civil disobedience was practised in India in the fight for/against British colonisation. The American
author Henry David Thoreau pioneered the modern theory before/behind this practice in his 1849
essay, originally titled "Resistance to Civil Government", and later retitled "Civil Disobedience". The
driving idea behind the essay was that/those of self-reliance, and how one is in morally good
standing as long as they "get on/off another man's back"; so you don't have to physically fight the
government, but you must not support it or have it support you (if you are against it). This essay has
had a wide influence on many later practitioners of civil disobedience. In the essay, Thoreau
explained his reasons for/of having refused to pay his taxes in/as an act of protest against slavery
and against the Mexican War. Civil Disobedience served as a major tactic of nationalist movements
in former colonies in Africa and Asia prior to their gaining independence. Most notably Mohandas
Gandhi developed civil disobedience as/for an anti-colonialist tool. Martin Luther King, a leader of the
US civil rights movement in the United States in the 1960s also adopted civil disobedience
techniques, and antiwar activists both during and after the Vietnam War did likewise. More recently,
in the 2000s, people have used civil disobedience to protest the war on Iraq.

Find the correct meaning of the words in bold;

Until well into the nineteenth century, it was common for both male and female writers to publish under a
pseudonym(44). For women, the cloak of anonymity was doubly important(45). Female assertion and
self-revelation(46) were viewed as unwomanly. Hence, writing under a man’s name could protect a
woman from criticism for unladylike thoughts, and could increase her chances for an impartial(47) review.
Jane Austen is one of the most widely(48) read and revered(49) novelists in the English language, and
her novels have become both literary and popular classics. Yet as a woman negotiating(50) her culture’s
censorship of female ambition, Austen was secretive about her writing and expressed a genuine(51)
aversion to acquiring a public character. The title page of her first published novel, Sense and Sensibility,
states that it was "By A Lady," and her relations who knew of her authorship were enjoined to keep the
secret. The title page of her next novel, Pride and Prejudice, attributed the work to "The Author of ‘Sense
and Sensibility,’" and this practice continued with each successive(52) novel.

Michel Eyquem de Montaigne (1533-1592) was a French writer of the 16th century, generally considered
to be the inventor(63) of the personal essay. His work was unprecedented(64) in its candidness and
personal flavor, and his influence(65) on both French and world literature is unquestionable. He writes
with utter frankness(66) in a non-technical style, sometimes moving in a stream-of-thought fashion(67)
from topic to topic. His arguments are often supported with quotes from classical Greek and Roman texts.
Montaigne's stated goal(68) in his book is to describe man, and especially his own self. He finds the great
variety and volatility of human nature to be its most basic features(69). A typical quote is "I have never
seen a greater monster or miracle than myself." He describes his poor(70) memory, his ability to solve
problems and mediate conflicts without truly getting emotionally involved, his disgust for man's pursuit of
lasting(71) fame, and his attempts to detach(72) himself from worldly things to prepare for death.
Montaigne is disgusted with the violent and barbaric conflicts(73) between Catholics and Protestants of
his time, and his writings show a pessimism and skepticism quite uncharacteristic for the Renaissance as
an example; he believes that humans cannot attain certainty, and he rejects general and absolute
statements.

Answer the questions according to the passage;

The Iliad by Homer, a Greek author who is also known for The Odysseus, contains everything about war:
real courage, real cowardice, real command failures, real command genius, real self-seeking, real self-
sacrifice, real equipment malfunction, real logistical mistakes, real supply shortages, real bad luck, real
good luck, real love of family, real love of friends, real love of brothers in arms, real love of country, real
hatred, real sorrow, real pity, real wisdom, real folly, real enemies, real death, real ugliness, real beauty,
real fog and real clarity. The Iliad is real, and it taught Greeks, young and old, what they needed to know
about war. It helped them to understand what it is like to attack in an army and to be attacked. Because
they knew the Iliad, Greeks who were coming of age for obligatory military service knew what war was.
War was a grim necessity. War could confer honor and glory and make a man a hero, a woman a

Answer the questions according to the passage;


What is behind the phenomenon of Japanese life expectancy? Most theories have centred on the low-fat
diet of fish, rice and soy products such as tofu. But diet is just one of the factors that make for a longer,
healthier life. While few studies offer definite explanations for Japan's long-living population, there is no
shortage of possibilities. Universal health insurance, achieved in the early 1960s, undoubtedly has an
impact, as does the generous state pension scheme. In Japan, poverty in old age is rare. Education also
plays a role. "There is no illiteracy, even among people aged 70 and over," says Takao Suzuki, from the
Tokyo Metropolitan Institute of Gerontology. "They are very sensitive about information on health
problems, so I would say education is one of the important factors." Suzuki says that the benefits of the
traditional Japanese diet have been made possible by economic development. Before the Second World
War, the average intake of animal protein was less than seven grams a day, but has risen to a near-ideal
40 grams, along with a similar level of vegetable protein. While cholesterol intake is rising, it has not
reached the levels in the West, where there are unprecedented levels of obesity.

96) It is said that the reason for longevity among the Japanese ___________.

A) is that they give priority to physical activity


B) has nothing to do with their eating habits
C) seems impossible to explain
D) is partly the low fat content of their diet
E) is only related to a diet of fish, rice and soy products

97) With the expression ‘there is no shortage of possibilities’, the writer means that ___________.

A) several complementary explanations exist about life expectancy


B) possibilities are not very short at all
C) eating habits among the Japanese aren’t probably short-lived
D) many methods of living long don’t work
E) there are a lot of possibilities in this regard

98) From what Takao Suzuki says in the passage, we learn that ___________.

A) the Japanese wish to imitate the eating habits of Western nations


B) Japanese government generously support research into nutrition
C) there are no people in Japan who don’t know how to read and write
D) certain information is required by law on food containers
E) traditional diet has been wholly abandoned in Japan

Answer the questions according to the passage;


"When I visit London one of my favourite things to do is shopping! I really enjoy hunting around for a
bargain in the sales, buying something new to wear out on a Saturday night. Or alternatively, a bit of
window-shopping - it doesn't cost a penny. Sometimes I'll spend hours just wandering around a
market having a chat with my friends. Some people like shopping in department stores; the most
famous one in London is 'Harrods' in Knightsbridge, but for me, it's not modern enough, and too
expensive, the sort of place your parents shop. But just down the road is 'Harvey Nics', much more
'up-to-the-minute', but not cheap. The best of all the big department stores is 'Selfridges' in Oxford
Street, it's a shoppers' paradise, nice clothes, and the prices. Well I can look, can't I? "For that 'day
out wandering around a marke' experience, try 'Camden', it's busy, exciting, trendy, and there are lots
of bargains! You can buy cheap jeans and cool second hand clothes in the morning and then get a
tattoo and a body piercing later on! If all that shopping is too tiring, you can get some Chinese or Thai
food for £2 or £3, sit by the canal and drink a beer. What could be better?

106) The author gives an exemplary picture of shopping in London ________.


A) although he hasn’t been there personally
B) which will be of invaluable use for strangers who will do shopping in London

SECTION FIVE

Answer the questions according to the passage;

Most people think that the majority of victims of crime in Central London are tourists. In fact, this is not the
case. In official police crime profile reports of incidents in Oxford Street, of 3404 victims of pickpockets,
only 128 were visitors to London. By far the biggest crime is pickpocketing; the criminals are now very
professional in their approach. The key to being a successful pickpocket, it would seem, is to distract the
victim away from what he or she is doing in order to allow the pickpocket to steal without anyone realising
a theft has taken place. One pickpocket’s tactic was to have a woman fasten her stockings and
suspenders in the middle of a shop; this obviously attracts a lot of attention, thus allowing the thief to go
about his business. Another diversion tactic was to squirt sauce on people’s clothes, the thief then starts
to try to ‘help’ while his accomplice moves in and steals the victims’ bag or wallet.

1) It is evident from the passage that ________________.


A) crime rate in Central London is relatively low on the contrary to what is thought
B) Londoners aren’t bothered by pickpocketing because the victims are visitors
C) the visitors to London constitute minority among victims of pickpocketting
D) London has the highest rate of pickpocketting among the other English cities
E) London is relatively safer than the other British cities for visitors

2)The passage draws attention to _________________.


A) what time of the day pickpockets are usually at work
B) how petty crimes are prevented in such cities as London
C) why pickpockets are obliged to steal so as to get by
D) what methods of self-defense are more effective in case of a theft
E) being careful when a distractive event takes place in public places

3)The main point in being successful as a pickpocket ____________.


A) is to know how to evade being caught by the police
B) is to collaborate with other pickpockets
C) is to help those badly in need of help
D) is to put off victims and steal what is to be stolen
E) is know how people will react in certain situations

Mark Twain's Huckleberry Finn


In every generation, writers joke about writing the "great American novel." But Mark Twain really did. The
Adventures of Huckleberry Finn, published in 1884, is considered by most to be Twain's ____. The story
follows Huck Finn as he helps Jim, a runaway slave, to escape ____ the Mississippi River. The novel is
filled with rich ____ of the river and the colorful people who lived along it. He also ____ humor to involve
his readers in issues of justice and morality. What ____ helped make this book so well loved? Twain
used accents and ____ words to bring his characters to life. Huckleberry Finn was different from anything
most Americans had ever read. Twain wrote dialogue for his characters that made them sound like real
people. He didn't make all his characters sound the same; instead they each had a unique ____. Here is
how Chapter One of The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn begins: "You don't know about me without you
have read a book by the name of The Adventures of Tom Sawyer; but that ain't no matter. That book was
made by Mr. Mark Twain, and he told the truth, mainly. There were things which he stretched, but mainly
he told the truth. ..." Can you see how this ____ the way someone speaks? This style of writing ____
influenced American literature, and The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn is now considered a classic
novel, a work of excellence that is read long after it is written.

table once had twelve legs, has a diameter of 18 feet (5.4 metres) and weighs nearly one and a half tons,

daggers in case they had to fight neighboring tribespeople--some of whom were cannibals. Manus kids'
lives were not that different from those of their distant ancestors. By the 1960s, life had changed for kids
in Pennsylvania, as well as for kids in places like Manus. But, according to Mead, life had actually
become more similar in certain ways for kids all over the globe. Mead believed that, after World War II,
the world was changing much faster than ever before. _________(33)_______, but Mead thought that
kids could easily adapt to rapid technological change. She called children the "natives" and adults the
"immigrants" of the modern world. Mead used social science techniques to research her ideas about
change. In the 1950s and '60s she talked to kids in the United States, Canada, Bali, and Manus about

The Library of Congress


During the War of 1812 the British invaded Washington and burned the Capitol building in 1814. They
also burned the 3,000 ____ in the Library of Congress, which was then housed in the Capitol. While
Jefferson was president from 1801 until 1809, he _____ a strong interest in the Library of Congress and
its collection, personally recommending books and _____ the first two Librarians of Congress. In fact, he
said, "I cannot live without books." By the time the war happened, Jefferson was retired and living at his
home in Monticello. There he had his own private library, known as the largest and finest in the country.
What do you think Jefferson decided to do for Congress? Jefferson offered to sell Congress his private
collection of 6,487 volumes for $23,950 to help restart the Library. Jefferson's collection included many
topics that the Library never had before. Until this time, the Library's collection had been ____ to legal,
economic, and historical works. Jefferson's collection included works on architecture, the arts, science,
literature, and geography. It also had books in French, Spanish, German, Latin, Greek, and Russian.
Jefferson believed that all subjects could be ____ to members of Congress, and deserved to be in the
collection. So now they had the books, where did they put them? The Library collection was kept in the
Congressional Reading Room in the Capitol, but in 1871 the Librarian of Congress at the time, Ainsworth
Rand Spofford, suggested that they ____ a separate building for the Library. In 1886, Congress approved
the project. Spofford wanted a "domed reading room at the Library's center, surrounded by ____ space
for the Library's various departments." When it was finished, it was the largest and ____ library building in
the world. In 1980, the building was renamed the Thomas Jefferson Building in honor of the man whose
personal collection helped rebuild the Library. You can imagine that this would have made Jefferson very
happy.

(I)Doing so, the researchers found, activated a region of the brain known as the dorsal striatum

(II)The team scanned the brain activity of male volunteers participating in a game of exchanging
money back and forth

(III)In order to prove this, Fehr and his colleagues applied a test called PET, which stands for
positron emission tomography

(IV)Individuals with stronger activations were more willing to incur greater costs in order to punish
someone else
"A person who has been cheated is left in a bad situation—with bad feelings," said study co-author Ernst
Fehr, director of the Institute for Empirical Research in Economics at the University of Zurich in
Switzerland. "The person would feel even worse if the cheater does not get her or his just punishment."

then scanned the person's brain when the water, carried via blood, reached the brain. ____(65)_____. If
one player made a selfish choice instead of a mutually beneficial one, another player could penalize him.
The majority of players chose to impose a penalty even when it cost them some of their own money.

Brain scans during the experiment also showed a correlation between a person's brain activity and how
much punishment they choose to mete out at their own personal cost: ____(67)_____. "The nice feature
of our study is that the variation in the dorsal striatum predicts these differences in behavior quite well,"
Fehr said. "Subjects with lower activation in the dorsal striatum punish less."

Answer the questions according to the passage;

1 Penelope is another of those mythic heroines whose beauties were rather those of
character and conduct than of person. She was the daughter of Icarius, a Spartan prince.
Odysseus, king of Ithaca, sought her in marriage, and won her, over all competitors. When
the moment came for the bride to leave her father's house, Icarius, unable to bear the
5 thoughts of parting with his daughter, tried to persuade her to remain with him, and not
accompany her husband to Ithaca. Odysseus gave Penelope her choice, to stay or go with
him. Penelope made no reply, but dropped her veil over her face. Icarius urged her no
further, but when she was gone erected a statue to Modesty on the spot where they
parted. Odysseus and Penelope had not enjoyed their union more than a year when it was
10 interrupted by the events which called Odysseus to the Trojan war. During his long
absence, and when it was doubtful whether he still lived, and highly improbable that he
would ever return, Penelope was importuned by numerous suitors, from whom there
seemed no refuge but in choosing one of them for her husband. Penelope, however,
employed every art to gain time, still hoping for Odysseus's return. One of her arts of delay
15 was engaging in the preparation of a robe for the funeral canopy of Laertes, her husband's
father. She pledged herself to make her choice among the suitors when the robe was
17 finished. During the day she worked at the robe, but in the night she undid the work of the
day. This is the famous Penelope's web, which is used as a proverbial expression for
anything which is perpetually doing but never done.

The Cookies
At an airport one night, with several long hours before her flight, she hunted for a book in an airport shop,
bought a bag of cookies and found a place to drop. She was engrossed in(79) her book but happened to
see(80) that the man sitting beside(81) her as bold as could be, grabbed a cookie or two from the bag in
between them, which she tried to ignore(82) so as to avoid a scene. So she munched the cookies and
watched the clock, as the gutsy cookie thief diminished(83) her stock. She was getting more irritated(84)
as the minutes ticked by, thinking, "If I wasn't so nice, I would blacken his eye." With each cookie she
took, he took one too. When only one was left, she wondered what he would do. With a smile on his face,
and a nervous laugh he took the last cookie and broke it in half. He offered her half as he ate the other.
She snatched it from him and thought....ooh, brother! This guy had some nerve and he was also rude.
Why he didn't even show any gratitude(85)! She had never known when she been so galled. She sighed
with relief when her flight was called. She gathered her belongings(86) and headed to(87) the gate,
refusing to look back at the thieving ingrate. She boarded(88) the plane and sank in her seat, then she
sought her book. As she reached in her baggage she gasped with surprise. There was her bag of
cookies in front of her eyes. If mine are here, she moaned in despair, the others were his. And he tried to
share. Too late to apologize, she realized with grief, that she was the rude one, the ingrate, the thief! How
many times have we absolutely known that something was a certain way, only to discover later that what
we believed to be true....was not? Always Keep An Open Mind And An Open Heart, Because..... You

Leicester Square is 'The Prince Charles'.______(1)______ , so if you don’t mind being a bit behind the
times and want to save a couple of quid this could be the place for you. Leicester Square is also the

Answer the questions according to the passage below;

French doctors were taken aback when they discovered the reason for a patient's sore, swollen belly:
He had swallowed around 350 coins - worth about $860 - along with assorted necklaces and needles.
The 62-year-old man came to the emergency room of Cholet General Hospital in western France in
2002. He had a history of major psychiatric illness, was suffering from stomach pain and could not eat
or move his bowels. His family warned doctors that he sometimes swallowed coins, and a few had been
removed from his stomach in past hospital visits. Still, doctors were awed when they took an X-ray.
They discovered an enormous opaque mass in his stomach that turned out to weigh 5.4 kilograms, as
much as some bowling balls. It was so heavy it had forced his stomach down between his hips. Five
days after his arrival, doctors cut him open and removed his badly damaged stomach with its contents.
He died 12 days later from complications. One of his doctors, intensive care specialist Dr. Bruno
Francois, said the patient had swallowed the coins - both French currency and euros - over about a
decade.

Fairy tale master Hans Christian Andersen was born on this date in 1805. The man who began many a
story with the enchanting(7) words "Once upon a time" also gave adults a few allusive phrases to carry
into adulthood. The Ugly Duckling tells the now-classic story of the duckling scorned(8) by everyone
(except his mother) because of his odd(9) and unpromising appearance. Eventually(10) he turns into
"the most beautiful swan of all," but the ugly duckling never forgets "how it felt to be despised and
teased(11)," and he is never cruel(12) to creatures that are different from those around them. Since the
late 1800s, the term ugly duckling has been a byword for someone despised or neglected because of
unpromising qualities but who has great potential. In Andersen's tale The Emperor's New Clothes, the
clothes-loving emperor is sold a new set of clothes by a pair of scoundrels who assure(13) him the
clothes are invisible to simpletons and to people unfit(14) for their office. Because no one wants to be
thought a fool, the clothes are extravagantly praised and the emperor parades around naked until an
innocent child pipes up with the truth—that the emperor is wearing no clothes. Nowadays, the
emperor's new clothes is a metaphor for something meaningless, nonsensical, or wrong that is
automatically, uncritically(15) agreed with.

POPULATION OF LONDON

London's ethnic populations are not a new phenomenon. London has seen wave after wave of
successive migrant populations arrive in the capital and settle in one area, thus creating a mini-
homeland. ______(21)_______. One such area that has seen different peoples come and go is Brick
Lane in east London, an area which gets its name from, you guessed it - making bricks! Situated in one

established themselves in Spitalfields, the area that now contains Brick Lane. ____(22)______. Jews
followed in the early part of the 20th century as they fled Russia, and again during the Second World
War as they left other parts of Eastern Europe. But it was more recently that Brick Lane acquired its
current inhabitants as later, in the 1960s and 1970s, a large influx of immigrants from Bangladesh
established the current 'Banglatown'. ____(23)________. Of course these restaurants are not Indian at
all. It is Bangladeshis who run them, the customers either do not know, or do not care that the food is
not authentic. ______(24)_______. So, with this huge Bengali community, it must be a good place to
get a curry? You might think so, but in fact, these restaurants offer huge menus. The sauces are often
bought in large catering packs, they are made for Western tastes.______(25)______. If you want to find
more authentic food, look for the restaurants that are not full of people in suits drinking pints of lager

Answer the question according to the passage;

There is much disagreement on both what the word 'Yeti' means, and where the name 'Abominable
Snowman' -- the common Western and European name for the beasts -- came from (there doesn't
appear to be any explanation of the word 'Alma' yet). According to Sir Edmund Hillary in his article in the
1961 World Book Encyclopedia, 'Yeti' is believed to have originally meant "all-devouring creature";
however, according to Jenny Randles in her book Strange & Unexplained Mysteries of the 20th
Century, the word is from the Sherpa Yeh-teh meaning 'rock thing.' As for the title 'Abominable
Snowman', in Stranger Than Science Frank Edwards asserts that it is said to either be from a
translation of the word 'Yeti', or a translation of the Tibetan name for the creatures, metoh kangmi; but
the authors of the Webster's Third New International Dictionary feel the phrase is a mistranslation of the
Tibetan 'mi-te', or 'man-bear'. While Jenny Randles states that it comes from a mistranslation of a
Tibetan phrase that actually translates as 'manlike creature that is not a man.'

26) The passage reveals ____________.


A) all about where the words ‘yeti’ and ‘abominable snowman’ came from
B) that Edmund Hillary claimed that ‘yeti’ means ‘rock thing’
C) where the most accurate meaning of the discussed words can be found
D) that the meanings of ‘yeti’ and ‘abominable snowman’ have been the subject of
scientific research
E) that there isn’t a consensus over the meaning of not only ‘yeti’ but ‘abominable
snowman’ as well

Answer the questions according to the passage;

1 For the long centuries of the Middle Ages (500-1350 AD) the basis of scientific knowledge
had experienced little change, and the Catholic Church had preserved acceptance of a
system of beliefs based on the teachings of the ancient Greeks and Romans which it had
incorporated into religious doctrine. During this period there was little scientific inquiry and
5 experimentation. Rather, students of the sciences simply read the works of the alleged
authorities and accepted their word as truth. However, during the Renaissance this doctrinal
passivity began to change. The quest to understand the natural world led to the revival of
botany and anatomy by thinkers such as Andreas Vesalius during the later sixteenth
century. These scientific observers were surprised to find that their conclusions did not
10 always match up with the accepted truths, and this finding inspired others to delve further
into the study of the world around them. Scientific study extended from the earth to the
heavens, and Nicolas Copernicus, upon examining the records of the motions of heavenly
bodies, soon discarded the old geocentric theory that placed the Earth at the center of the
solar system and replaced it with a heliocentric theory in which the Earth was simply one of
15 a number of planets orbiting the sun. Though this scheme seemed to comply better with the
astronomical records of the time, Copernicus had little direct evidence to support his claims.
17 Not being ready to abandon traditional beliefs kept the heliocentric theory from achieving full
acceptance. The theory awaited the advancement of mathematics and physics to support its
claims.

B) understanding of the natural world was enriched through botany and anatomy
C) the search into botany and anatomy caused new ideas to emerge as regards the natural
world
D) botany and anatomy changed the face of the natural world
E) botany and anatomy became again a field of study as a result of the search to
understand the natural world

31) The bold section in line 10 and 11 means that __________.

A) the earth was no longer the subject of scientific studies


B) science started to engage in the paradise as well as in the earth
C) the heavens had now become the main focus of scientific study
D) science enlarged its focus from studying the world we live in to the sky
E) the circle of scientists became more interested in the heavens than in the earth

32) The bold section in line 16 and 17means __________.

A) ‘hindered complete recognition of heliocentric theory’


B) ‘caused no deviation from heliocentric theory’
C) ‘preserved heliocentric theory intact’

The European Union knows the precise number of cows grazing its fields, but not the number of
citizens in the 25 member states, its chief statistician was quoted as saying yesterday. Michel Vanden
Abeele, director-general of statistics agency Eurostat, told Belgian newspaper L'Echo that the EU's

Answer the question according to the passage;

It was not until divorce papers landed in her mailbox that a 22-year-old Norwegian woman discovered
that she had been married to a Pakistani stranger for a year, the Norwegian tabloid VG reported. The
woman, whose wallet had been snatched several years earlier, had no idea that her identification cards
had been used during a ceremony at the Islamic Cultural Centre in Oslo to unite her and the stranger in
holy matrimony. "I was shocked. I have never got married, and had no idea what had happened," the
woman, whose name was not disclosed, told the paper. She suspected that another woman had used
her ID to impersonate her during the ceremony. The centre's Imam Maulana Mehboob-ur-Rehman told
VG that his congregation very carefully checked that people getting married had their papers in order,
adding that the man must have duped both the congregation and the "wife". The woman whose wallet
was stolen now wants the marriage annulled and has reported the fraud to the police.

the Key West Citizen newspaper that a young man, who also had hooks embedded in his heavily pierced

Answer the question according to the passage;

A series of fires in the southern Egyptian province of Sohag has destroyed about 160 houses, giving rise

Answer the question according to the passage;

A storm is brewing in China as drought-stricken regions accuse each other of stealing clouds for rain-
seeding. With the help of modern technology, scientists can fire rockets filled with various substances
into light, fluffy clouds to make them rain. "But the practice has caused considerable controversy in recent
days, with some saying that one area's success with rain has meant taking moisture meant for one place
and giving it to another," the China Daily said today. The row over rain clouds was particularly heated in
several cities in central Henan province. "Meteorological officials in Zhoukou were soon accusing their
counterparts in Pingdingshan of overusing available natural resources by intercepting clouds that would
have likely drifted to other places, say, like Zhoukou," the newspaper said. Much of China is short of

The dead could soon be speaking from the grave if an American inventor's plan becomes reality.
Californian Robert Barrows has filed a patent application for a video-equipped(99) tombstone that will
display a video message from the grave's occupant(100). "If his patent is granted, Barrows hopes that
when people make out their will(101), they also leave a parting(102) video with their lawyer," New
Scientist magazine said. The hollow(103), talking tombstone will include a flat touch screen and will
house a computer with a microchip memory or hard disc. It will be powered by electricity from the
cemetery's lighting system. The plan will not be the first electronically enhanced tombstone - an American
company already has a patent on a gravestone that can display photographs of the deceased(104) and
tributes from friends, the magazine said. But the Barrows’ plan will go on further by including actual
contributions from the deceased.

A Saudi man sentenced to six months in jail and 300 lashes for battering__(105)__ his TV-presenter wife
has been released as she pardoned__(106)__ him. Rania al-Baz decided to forfeit her private right under
sharia (Islamic law) for compensation from her husband, Mohammed Bakar Yunus al-Fallatta, and
requested his release after he served a little more than half his sentence __(107)__, Arab News said.
She told the English-language newspaper that the case was settled__(108)__ "in a way satisfactory to
both sides". Baz declined __(109)__ to give details of the settlement, which allowed Fallatta to walk free
on Saturday, saying only "she did not want to drag the case out any longer given the massive publicity
__(110)__ it has received", the paper reported. Fallatta had been sentenced to six months in jail and 300
lashes in May after he repeatedly smashed his wife's head into the walls and tiled floor and dumped her
unconscious at hospital on April 4. He initially faced an attempted murder charge, later reduced to severe
battering. Baz, who suffered 13 facial fractures and is still having reconstructive surgery__(111)__,
agreed to have photographs of her injuries published in the press in a bid to raise __(112)__ awareness

Fallatta signed an agreement regarding their two children that "protects the rights of both
parties"__(113)__, Arab News reported. Under sharia, Baz has a private claim against her husband
independently of the public case, it said. "If Rania had insisted on compensation for her suffering the
sentence would have either been monetary compensation or, in theory, a beating similar in severity and
kind to the one she suffered from her husband," the paper added.
