Wave power
Engineers are building machinery to harness the power of ocean waves. As an abundant source of clean
energy, wave power can be categorised along with (26) sustainable energy sources, such as wind and
solar power.
Wave power is extracted by wave energy converters, or WECs, which are placed along the ocean (27)
that produce strong waves. The first wave farm, (28) comprises three WECs, was built off the
coast of Portugal in 2008. It was set to produce over two megawatts of energy – enough to power 2,000 homes.
Sadly the project hit a (29) block two months into operation and has remained offline ever since,
demonstrating the high probability of technical difficulties that can still arise.
Engineers are continuing to build wave farms worldwide, (30) it is worth cultivating the extraction
of wave power. The amount of power that could potentially be extracted is three terawatts – enough for
billions of homes and businesses.

Fort Collins certainly does its part to uphold Colorado’s reputation as one of the country’s most physically
active states. Recreational activities in Fort Collins range from biking and hiking to snowboarding and
kayaking. Thanks to its location at the foothills of the Rocky Mountains and the banks of the Poudre River,
and a robust lineup of city-run indoor exercise facilities, Fort Collins residents have plenty of opportunities to
get their hearts pumping. The city’s vibrant craft brewing scene serves as a hard-earned reward for Fort
Collins’ active locals.
Fort Collins has long prioritized the performance of its public school system, with efforts that have paid off
in spades and made the city one of the country's best places to live. Fort Collins' 41,680 students perform 3 to
19 percent higher than the statewide average in all subjects; and on a national scale, Fort Collins pupils
consistently are ahead of the game when it comes to ACT and SAT college entrance exam averages.

Fort Collins has invested extensively in its local library system, cultural offerings, and public learning
opportunities. The city’s Fort Collins Museum of Discovery is a gorgeous hands-on learning space featuring
an array of traditional and pop-science exhibits that fascinate the young and old. The museum’s marquee
attraction, the OtterBox Digital Dome Theatre, screens a variety of nationally and internationally release
science and nature films on a 35-foot dome screen.
Rounding out the city’s cultural, academic, and natural attractions is Fort Collins’ notable slate of industry
because it’s regarded as an engine of economic growth and stability for northern Colorado. Fort Collins
enjoys the presence and job provision of Fortune 500 luminaries. Businesses in Fort Collins find strong
support from local residents and city leaders.

each of the questions from 36 to 42
Photographic evidence suggests that liquid water once existed in great quantity on the surface of Mars.
Two types of flow features are seen: runoff channels and outflow channels. Runoff channels are found in the
southern highlands. These flow features are extensive systems of interconnecting, twisting channels that
seem to merge into larger, wider channels. They bear a strong resemblance to river systems on Earth, and
geologists think that they are dried-up beds of long-gone rivers that once carried rainfall on Mars from the
mountains down into the valleys. Runoff channels on Mars speak of a time 4 billion years ago, when the
atmosphere was thicker, the surface warmer, and liquid water widespread.
Outflow channels are probably relics of catastrophic flooding on Mars long ago. They appear only in
equatorial regions and generally do not form extensive interconnected networks. Instead, they are probably
the paths taken by huge volumes of water draining from the southern highlands into the northern plains. The
onrushing water arising from these flash floods likely also formed the odd teardrop-shaped "islands" that have
been found on the plains close to the ends of the outflow channels. Judging from the width and depth of the
channels, the flow rates must have been truly enormous – perhaps as much as a hundred times greater than the
105 tons per second carried by the great Amazon River. Flooding shaped the outflow channels approximately
3 billion years ago, about the same time as the northern volcanic plains formed.
Some scientists speculate that Mars may have enjoyed an extended early period during which rivers, lakes,
and perhaps even oceans adorned its surface. A 2003 Mars Global Surveyor image shows what mission
specialists think may be a delta – a fan-shaped network of channels and sediments where a river once flowed
into a larger body of water, in this case a lake filling a crater in the southern highlands. Other researchers go
even further, suggesting that the data provide evidence for large open expanses of water on the early Martian
surface. A computer-generated view of the Martian north polar region shows the extent of what may have
been an ancient ocean covering much of the northern lowlands. The Hellas Basin, which measures some
3,000 kilometers across and has a floor that lies nearly 9 kilometers below the basin's rim, is another
candidate for an ancient Martian sea.

Question 37. The word “they” in paragraph 1 refers to .
A. channels B. geologists C. systems D. Mars
Question 38. In paragraph 2, why does the author include the information that 105 tons of water flow through
the Amazon River per second?
A. To emphasize the great size of the volume of water that seems to have flowed through Mars’ outflow
channels
B. To indicate data used by scientists to estimate how long ago Mars’ outflow channels were formed
C. To argue that flash floods on Mars may have been powerful enough to cause tear-shaped "islands" to form
D. To argue that the force of flood waters on Mars was powerful enough to shape the northern volcanic plains
Question 39. The word "relics" in paragraph 2 is closest in meaning to
A. remains B. sites C. requirements D. sources
Question 40. The word "adorned" in the last paragraph is closest in meaning to
A. attached B. ornament C. embellished D. bedecked
Question 41. Which of the following questions about geological features on Mars is NOT answered in
paragraph 3?
A. What are some regions of Mars that may have once been covered with an ocean?
B. Where do mission scientists believe that the river forming the delta emptied?
C. Approximately how many craters on Mars do mission scientists believe may once have been lakes filled
with water?
D. During what period of Mars' history do some scientists think it may have had large bodies of water?
Question 42. What can be inferred from paragraph 3 about liquid water on Mars?
A. If ancient oceans ever existed on Mars' surface, it is likely that the water in them has evaporated by now.
B. If there is any liquid water at all on Mars' surface today, its quantity is much smaller than the amount that
likely existed there in the past.
C. Small-scale gullies on Mars provide convincing evidence that liquid water existed on Mars in the recent past.
D. The small amount of water vapor in the Martian atmosphere suggests that there has never been liquid water
on Mars.

the look they want — when they have the money, that is!
Feeling confident is the most important factor when it comes to buying clothes. (27) interesting piece
of information coming out of the study is that German teenagers go for clothes that are practical and
comfortable, while British and French teenagers are more concerned about appearance, (28) they all
agreed that the clothes should fit them properly. All the girls (29) were interviewed shop for clothes
regularly, half of them buying something from a department store or a large clothes shop at least once a
month. They also see it as a social (30) and going round the shops with their friends is the main way they
learn what the latest trends are.

When we accept the evidence of our unaided eyes and describe the Sun as a yellow star, we have summed
up the most important single fact about it-at this moment in time.
It appears probably, however, that sunlight will be the color we know for only a negligibly small part of
the Sun's history. Stars, like individuals, age and change. As we look out into space, we see around us stars at
all stages of evolution. There are faint blood-red dwarfs so cool that their surface temperature is a mere 4,000
degrees Fahrenheit, there are searing ghosts blazing at 100,000 degrees Fahrenheit and almost too hot to be
seen, for the great part of their radiation is in the invisible ultraviolet range. Obviously, the "daylight"
produced by any star depends on its temperature; today(and for ages to come) our Sun is at about 10,000
degrees Fahrenheit, and this means that most of the Sun's light is concentrated in the yellow band of the
spectrum, falling slowly in intensity toward both the longer and shorter light waves.

That yellow "hump" will shift as the Sun evolves, and the light of day will change accordingly. It is natural
to assume that as the Sun grows older, and uses up its hydrogen fuel-which it is now doing at the spanking
rate of half a billion tons a second- it will become steadily colder and redder.

Modern civilization is heavily dependent on energy. Without reliable power sources, we couldn’t operate
machines, use transportation, communicate via the Internet, or do many other things. Although everyone
recognizes the importance of energy, deciding what kind of energy the world should use in the future is not a
simple task. The two leading candidates for this role are green energy and nuclear energy.
Currently, most of the energy we use is derived from fossil fuels. Although this energy source has got us
this far, there are several problems with it. For starters, it is a finite resource which is quickly running out.
Some analysts have even estimated that the Earth could run out of coal and oil within the next 50 years.
Burning fossil fuels also creates large amount of pollution, which is harmful to the environment. Although
fossil fuels still provide the majority of our power, governments are seeking better energy sources to use
going forward.
Green energy is one option that is becoming increasingly attractive. It includes technologies such as solar,
wind, and hydro power. These are seen as clean sources of energy because they cause very little pollution. In
addition, they are completely renewable, so there is no danger that it will run out. The major disadvantage
with green energy sources is that they are not cheap.
The other alternative is nuclear power. Like green energy, it is also a renewable source of power that will
not run out, and it also doesn’t produce air pollution. In addition, nuclear power is more reliable than green
energy, as it doesn’t depend on sunshine, rain, or wind to operate. The major issues with nuclear power are
safety concerns and nuclear waste. Nuclear power plants create a considerable amount of nuclear waste which
is extremely hazardous to people’s health. If they happen to have a meltdown, this could destroy the
surrounding area for years to come.
The recent nuclear disaster in Fukushima, Japan brought this reality into the spotlight once again. In
response, Germany announced it would close down eight of its nuclear plants immediately, and close the rest
by 2022. Meanwhile, other nations refuse to give up on nuclear power, stating that these disasters are rare.
The debate of whether to use green or nuclear power will likely continue for some time. In the end, it is quite
possible that both energy sources will be used to fuel our planet.

National parks
You realise how truly incredible the natural environment is when you take a trip to one of the world’s
national parks. To be eligible for national park (26) , a place must possess a unique natural, cultural or
recreational resource and be considered in need of protection. Fortunately, a considerable number of natural
gems have been designated (27) national parks and some are also World Heritage sites.
From hot springs to snowy peaks, these postcard-worthy destinations could definitely be
on your list of places to visit. Many are also home to (28) pretty amazing flora and fauna. The parks
are extremely popular with outdoor enthusiasts, who can indulge in their favourite activities like hiking or
rafting, surrounded by nature. The largest national park in the world isn’t easily (29) , being in a
remote area of Greenland and boasting a permanent population of zero. It’s also not used to receiving visitors
(around 500 a year). This is a long way from the estimated 11 million tourists (30) flock to the Great
Smoky Mountains of North Carolina and Tennessee in the United States

The modern age is an age of electricity. People are so used to electric lights, radio, televisions, and
telephones that it is hard to imagine what life would be like without them. When there is a power failure,
people grope about in flickering candlelight. Cars hesitate in the streets because there are no traffic lights to
guide them, and food spoils in silent refrigerators.
Yet, people began to understand how electricity works only a little more than two centuries ago. Nature
has apparently been experimenting in this field for millions of years. Scientists are discovering more and more
that the living world may hold many interesting secrets of electricity that could benefit humanity.
All living cells sent out tiny pulses of electricity. As the heart beats, it sends out pulses of recorded
electricity; they form an electrocardiogram, which a doctor can study to determine how well the heart is
working. The brain, too, sends out brain waves of electricity, which can be recorded in an
electroencephalogram. The electric currents generated by most living cells are extremely small-of-ten so small
that sensitive instruments are needed to record them. But in some animals, certain muscle cells have become
so specialized as electrical generators that they do not work as muscle cells at all. When large numbers of
these cells are linked together, the effects can be astonishing.

The electric eel is an amazing storage battery. It can send a jolt of as much as eight hundred volts of
electricity through the water in which it lives. An electric house current is only one hundred twenty volts.) As
many as four fifths of all the cells in the electric eel’s body are specialized for generating electricity, and the
strength of the shock it can deliver corresponds roughly to the length of its body.
Question 31. What is the main idea of the passage?
A. Electric eels are potentially dangerous
B. Biology and electricity appear to be closely related
C. People would be at a loss without electricity
D. Scientists still have much to discover about electricity
Question 32. It can be inferred from the passage that the longer an eel is the .

Throughout history, various people have demonstrated a high degree of confidence in the ability of certain
animals to predict the weather. It may seem surprising today in view of the complex equipment now involved
in weather forecasting to understand that in certain cases, the behavior of animals does indeed provide an
indication of inclement weather. Sensitivity of certain animals to falling air pressure or to low-frequency
sound waves that humans cannot hear, which are indicators of approaching storms, causes behaviors in
animals that certain societies have come to recognize as predictors of storms.
A number of animals are remarkably sensitive to variations in air pressure, and some of these animals
show consistent, noticeable, and predictable behaviors as air pressure drops before a storm hits. When the air
pressure drops before a storm, some animals move closer to the ground to equalize the pressure in their ears:
some birds such as swallows tend to stay on the ground or roost in trees instead of soaring in the skies when a
storm is imminent because of the decreasing air pressure. Other animals make more noise than usual as air
pressure drops: an unusual amount of quacking by ducks and a high volume of croaking by frogs are both
indicators that are believed to occur because of the high degree of sensitivity of ducks and frogs to the change
in pressure. Finally, still other animals become more active before storms as a reaction to the falling air
pressure: dolphins and porpoises seem to be taking part in a frenzied sort of play, and bees and ants become
more active prior to storms, most likely because of their sensitivity to lower pressure.
There is good reason to believe that the fact that these animal behaviors seem to occur regularly prior to
storms may have a scientific basis and that the animals demonstrating these behaviors may actually be good
short-range weather forecasters. However, their ability to predict long-range weather patterns is rather
suspect. Certain proverbs, for example, are based on what is most likely the idea that squirrels are good
indicators of long-range weather patterns. One proverb indicates that, if a squirrel seems busier than usual in
gathering nuts, then a long and cold winter is on its way; however, this behavior in squirrels is more likely
due to a large supply of nuts available for gathering, which occurs because of earlier good weather, and is not
an indicator of cold weather to come. Another proverb about squirrels indicates that if a squirrel grows a long
and bushy tail in the fall, then a particularly harsh winter is on its way; in this case too, the squirrel develops a
long and bushy tail because of earlier good weather and not as a warning of bad weather to come.

The mobile phone
People have been dreaming of having a personal means of communication for a long time. In the late
1960s, the idea seemed so far in the future that it was included in the science fiction series, Star Trek. Since
the 1980s, however, mobile have become a part of everyday life. (26) they were initially seen as a status
symbol for successful business people, mobile use has spread to include practically everyone in the developed
world, old and young alike. The (27) on social life has been enormous. We have got used to the idea of
having constantly changing social plans, (28) a quick phone call is all takes to rearrange things. Before this
was possible, there were (29) occasions when friends who had arranged to meet completely
missed each other because of a slight misunderstanding. People would often have to (30) very careful
arrangements to be sure of meeting up. As mobiles have become more popular, so they have become more
powerful. The large, unreliable mobile phone of the 1980s has evolved into the small stylish phone of today.

The term “virus” is derived from the Latin word for poison. or slime. It was originally applied to the
noxious stench emanating from swamps that was thought to cause a variety of diseases in the centuries before
microbes were discovered and specifically linked to illness. But it was not until almost the end of the
nineteenth century that a true virus was proven to be the cause of a disease.
The nature of viruses made them impossible to detect for many years even after bacteria had been
discovered and studied. Not only are viruses too small to be seen with a light microscope, they also cannot be
detected through their biological activity, except as it occurs in conjunction with other organisms. In fact,
viruses show no traces of biological activity by themselves. Unlike bacteria, they are not living agents in the
strictest sense Viruses are very simple pieces of organic material composed only of nucleic acid, either DNA
or RNA, enclosed in a coat of protein made up of simple structural units.(Some viruses also contain
carbohydrates and lipids.)
They are parasites, requiring human, animal, or plant cells to live. The virus replicates by attaching to a
cell and injecting its nucleic acid.' Once inside the cell, the DNA or RNA that contains the virus' genetic
information takes over the cell's biological machinery, and the cell begins to manufacture viral proteins rather
than its own.

Three scales of temperature, each of which permits a precise measurement, are in current use: the
Fahrenheit, Celsius, and Kelvin scales. These three different temperature scales were each developed by
different people and have come to be used in different situations.
The scale that is most widely used by the general public in the United States is the Fahrenheit scale. In
1714, Daniel Gabriel Fahrenheit, a German physicist who was living in Holland and operating an instrument
business, developed a thermometer and the temperature scale that still carries his name. His original scale had
two fixed points: 0º was the lowest temperature and 96º was what he believed was the normal temperature of
the human body. Based on this scale, he calculated that the freezing point of water was 32º; in later studies, it
was determined that the boiling point of water was 212º. The Fahrenheit scale came to be accepted as the
standard measure of temperature in a number of countries. Today, however, the United States is the only
major country in the world that still uses the Fahrenheit scale.
The scale that is in use in many other countries is the Celsius scale. Anders Celsius, a Swedish astronomer,
developed a thermometer in 1741 that based temperatures on the freezing and boiling temperatures of water.
On the thermometer that Celsius developed, however, 0º was used to indicate the boiling temperature of
water, and 100º was used to indicate the freezing temperature of water. After his death, the scale was reversed
by a friend, the biologist Carl von Linne. On the new scale after the reversal by von Linne, 0º indicated the
freezing temperature of water, and 100º indicated the boiling temperature of water. At around the same time, a
similar thermometer was being developed in France. After the French Revolution, the scale developed in
France was adopted as part of the metric system in that country under the name centigrade, which means "a
hundred units," and from there it spread worldwide. In 1948, an international agreement was made to rename
the centigrade scale the Celsius scale in honor of the scientist who was first known to use a 100-degree scale,
though it should be remembered that the scale that Celsius actually used himself was the reverse of today's
scale.
A third scale, the Kelvin scale, is generally used today for scientific purposes. This scale was first
suggested in 1854 by two English physicists: William Thomson, Lord Kelvin and James Prescott Joule. The
Kelvin scale defines 0º as absolute zero, the temperature at which all atomic and molecular motion
theoretically stops, and 100º separates the freezing point and boiling point of water, just as it does on the
Celsius scale. On the Kelvin scale, with 0º equal to absolute zero, water freezes at 273º, and water boils at a
temperature 100º higher. The Kelvin scale is well suited to some areas of scientific study because it does not
have any negative values, yet it still maintains the 100º difference between the freezing point and boiling
point of water that the Celsius scale has and can thus easily be converted to the Celsius scale by merely
subtracting 273º from the temperature on the Kelvin scale.

Very few people in the modern world obtain their food supply by hunting and gathering in the natural
environment surrounding their homes. This method of harvesting from nature’s provision is the oldest known
subsistence strategy and has been practiced for at least the last two million years. It was, indeed, the only way
to obtain food until rudimentary farming and the domestication of wild animals were introduced about
10,000 years ago.
Because hunter-gatherers have fared poorly in comparison with the agricultural cousins, their numbers
have dwindled, and they have been forced to live in marginal environments, such as deserts and arctic
wastelands. In higher latitudes, the shorter growing seasons have restricted the availability of plant life. Such
conditions have caused a greater dependence on hunting, and on fishing along the coasts and waterways. The
abundance of vegetation in the lower latitudes of the tropics, on the other hand, has provided a greater
opportunity for gathering a variety of plants. In short, the environmental differences have restricted the diet
and have limited possibilities for the development of subsistence societies.
Contemporary hunter-gatherers may help us understand our prehistoric ancestors. We know from the
observation of modem hunter-gatherers in both Africa and Alaska that a society based on hunting and
gathering must be very mobile. While the entire community camps in a central location, a smaller party
harvests the food within a reasonable distance from the camp, when the food in the area has become
exhausted, the community moves on to exploit another site. We also notice seasonal migration patterns
evolving for most hunter-gatherers, along with a strict division of labor between the sexes. These patterns of
behavior may be similar to those practiced by mankind during the Paleolithic Period.

OLYMPIC TORCH RELAY STARTS IN JAPAN
The torch relay for the Tokyo Olympics is finally underway. The 2020 Summer Games were postponed due
to the coronavirus pandemic but organizers have been determined to (31) they go ahead in July. It
began in Fukushima Prefecture, (32) was devastated by the triple disasters of the 2011 earthquake,
tsunami and nuclear meltdown. Fukushima was chosen as the start of the relay to show the area has recovered,
although (33) people say claims of recovery are a little premature.
The head of Japan's Olympic organizing committee, Seiko Hashimoto, said in her opening address: “The
flame will embark on a 121-day journey and will carry the hopes of the Japanese people and wishes for
peace.” Japanese people are being encouraged to look at live broadcasts of the relay and refrain from
travelling to watch it amid fears of a spike in COVID 19 cases. (34) must wear face masks, and are being
urged to clap rather than cheer. Japan's Prime Minister Yoshihide Suga reiterated his commitment to stage a
“safe and secure” Olympics (35) the pandemic. He said: “We will do our utmost on
coronavirus measures”.

Members of the royal family have led an outpouring of tributes from around the world at the death of
Prince Philip, the husband of Queen Elizabeth. Buckingham Palace has spoken of the Queen’s “deep sorrow”
after her husband of 73 years, who had been by her side throughout her reign, died peacefully at Windsor
Castle aged 99 on Friday night (Australian time).
Flags at Buckingham Palace and government buildings across the United Kingdom were lowered to half-
mast, and within an hour of the announcement the public began to lay flowers outside Windsor Castle and
Buckingham Palace. However, mourners have been urged not to gather and leave tributes at royal residences,
and the public has been asked to stay away from funeral events because of the coronavirus pandemic. An
online book of condolence has been launched on the Royal Family’s official website for people to leave
messages of sympathy.
The prince died two months short of his 100th birthday. He had recently spent four weeks in hospital with
an infection where he was treated for a heart condition before being discharged and returned to Windsor
early in March. The Duke of Edinburgh had been by his wife’s side throughout her 69-year reign, the longest
in British history, and during that time earned a reputation for a tough, no-nonsense attitude, and a propensity
for occasional gaffes. A Greek prince, Philip married Elizabeth in 1947, and together they had four children,
eight grandchildren, and nine great grandchildren. He played a key role helping the monarchy adapt to a
changing world in the post-World War II period, and behind the walls of Buckingham Palace was the one key
figure the Queen could trust and turn to, knowing he could tell her exactly what he thought.
The death of the Duke comes in the midst of the worst public health crisis for generations as Britain and
countries around the globe reel from the devastating impact of the coronavirus pandemic. Philip will not have
a state funeral nor lie in state for the public to pay their respects ahead of the funeral, the College of Arms
said, with arrangements revised to meet coronavirus restrictions.

ELECTRIC-CAR BATTERY CHARGES IN FIVE MINUTES
Car makers are spending a lot of money on electric cars. In the future, electric cars will replace petrol cars.
Environmentalists believe this will reduce the amount of CO2 (26) into the atmosphere. A big problem
for electric cars is charging the battery. Some batteries in today's electric cars can take up to 12 hours to
charge fully. (27) , a company in Israel says it has created a lithium-ion battery that people can charge in just
five minutes. This is the same amount of time it takes to fill a tank of gas with petrol. The new lithium-ion
batteries (28) were developed by the Israeli company StoreDot are being manufactured by a Chinese
company called Eve Energy.
The new batteries could totally transform driving. They would mean electric cars would be able to travel as
far as petrol cars. (29) people with electric cars today suffer from "range anxiety". This is stress caused
by worrying about the battery running out of electricity. The new batteries would end this anxiety. A StoreDot
spokesperson said: "We're at the point of (30) a revolution in the electric vehicle charging experience".

The food we eat seems to have profound effects on our health. Although science has made enormous steps
in making food more fit to eat, it has, at the same time, made many foods unfit to eat. Some research has
shown that perhaps eighty percent of all human illnesses are related to diet and forty percent of cancer is
related to the diet as well, especially cancer of the colon. People of different cultures are more prone to
contract certain illnesses because of the characteristic foods they consume.
That food is related to illness is not a new discovery. In 1945, government researchers realized that nitrates
and nitrites (commonly used to preserve color in meat) as well as other food additives caused cancer. Yet,
these carcinogenic additives remain in our food, and it becomes more difficult all the time to know which
ingredients on the packaging labels of processed food are helpful or harmful.
The additives that we eat are not all so direct. Farmers often give penicillin to cattle and poultry, and
because of this, penicillin has been found in the milk of treated cows.
Sometimes similar drugs are administered to animals not for medicinal purposes, but for financial reasons.
The farmers are simply trying to fatten the animals in order to obtain a higher price on the market. Although
the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has tried repeatedly to control these procedures, the practices
continue.
A healthy diet is directly related to good health. Often we are unaware of detrimental substances we ingest.
Sometimes well-meaning farmers or others who do not realize the consequences add these substances to food
without our knowledge.

Marine experts estimate about 40,000 humpback whales are now migrating through Australian waters
annually, up from about 1,500 half a century ago. The humpbacks’ annual journey from Antarctica to
subtropical waters along Australia’s east and west coasts is one of nature’s great migrations. It is a journey of
up to 10,000 kilometers and is undertaken between April and November. Scientists have estimated 40,000
humpback whales have been in Australian waters to mate and breed. It is a remarkable recovery from the
height of commercial whaling in the early 1960s when it was estimated there were fewer than 1,500
humpbacks. They were slaughtered mainly for their oil and baleen, or “whalebone.”
Australia’s environment department says no other whale species has recovered as strongly as the
humpback since the end of commercial hunting, which ceased in Australia in 1978. Australia is now
considering removing humpback whales from the endangered species list because of their growing numbers.
The acrobatic humpbacks that can grow to 16 meters would still be protected in Australia. Conservationists,
though, argue that they need more, not fewer, environmental safeguards to monitor the impact of climate
change on krill – their main source of food. Krill are affected by the absorption of more carbon dioxide into
the ocean.
Olaf Meynecke, a research fellow in Marine Science at Queensland’s Griffith University, says vigilance is
needed to ensure the whales continue to thrive. “Generally speaking, yes, it is a great success story that
humpback whales have come back. But obviously we also need to ask questions as to how will this continue
in the future, how are present threats already impacting the population, and how we are going to detect
changes in the future,” Meynecke said. Scientists say humpbacks face a combination of other threats
including the overharvesting of krill, pollution, habitat degradation, and entanglement in fishing nets. Calves
also face attack by killer whales or sharks.
The recovery of the humpback has helped the rapid growth of Australia’s whale-watching industry. As
their numbers have grown, much about the humpback, a species famous for its song, remains a mystery.
Scientists do not know exactly, for example, where on Australia’s Great Barrier Reef they mate and calve.
Humpback whales live in all the world’s oceans. They take their common name from a distinctive hump on
the whale’s back.

Many people drink diet sodas as part of their diet. They believe these drinks are healthier than fizzy drinks.
(26) , according to a new study, "diet" versions of sugary drinks can be as bad for our heart as fizzy
drinks that are loaded with sugar. The researchers (27) conducted the study said people should avoid
diet sodas and other artificially sweetened beverages if they want to look after their health. Dr Guy Mintz, a
heart specialist, said: "The belief that artificial sweeteners are a safe substitute for sugar is fake news.
Artificial sweeteners have also been associated with weight gain, insulin (28) , and diabetes."
Researchers looked at health data from over 100,000 people in France. Participants in the study recorded
their diet, activity level, and health status every six months. The researchers said: "Higher intakes
of...artificially sweetened beverages were associated with a higher risk of cardiovascular disease, suggesting
that artificially
sweetened beverages might not be a healthy (29) for sugary drinks. Also, water, water, and more water
should be the beverage of choice. Given childhood obesity, (30) sweetened or artificially sweetened
beverage should be a staple in children's diets."

Martin Luther King, Jr., is well known for his work in civil rights and for his many famous speeches,
among them is his moving “I Have A Dream'' speech. But fewer people know much about King’s childhood.
M.L., as he was called, was born in 1929 in Atlanta, Georgia, at the home of his maternal grandfather. M.L.’s
grandfather, the Reverend
A.D. Williams, purchased their home on Auburn Avenue in 1909, twenty years before M.L. was born. The
Reverend Williams, an eloquent speaker, played an important role in the community since so many people’s
lives centered round the church. He allowed his church and his home to be used as a meeting place for a
number of organizations dedicated to the education and social advancement of blacks. M.L. grew up in this
atmosphere, with his home being used as a community gathering place, and was no doubt influenced by it.
M.L.’s childhood was not especially eventful. His father was a minister and his mother was a musician. He
was the second of three children, and he attended all- black schools in a black neighborhood. The
neighborhood was not poor, however. Auburn Avenue was the main artery through a prosperous
neighborhood that had come to symbolize achievement for Atlanta’s black people. It was an area of banks,
insurance companies, builders,
jewelers, tailors, doctors, lawyers, and other black-owner black-operated businesses and services. Even in the
face of Atlanta’s segregation, the district thrived. Dr. King never forgot the community spirit he had known as
a child, nor did he forget the racial prejudice that was a seemingly insurmountable barrier that kept black
Atlantans from mingling with whites.

For hundreds of years, giving flowers has been a social means of communication. In the United States,
flowers are often given during rites of passage, for commemorating special occasions or as a heartfelt gift
between loved ones and friends. Flower gifting also occurs in most countries around the world. However, the
meanings and traditions often vary.
While students traditionally gave their favorite teacher an apple in past years, in China, teachers are given
flowers. Peonies are by far the flower most often given in China. They are also quite popularly used for
weddings. Strangely, potted plants are not considered a pleasant gift among Asian cultures. The people
believe that like a plant confined by a pot, the gift symbolizes a binding or restriction.
In Russia, in lieu of giving birthday presents, the guest of honor receives a single flower or an unwrapped
bouquet. Floral arrangements or baskets are not given. Russians celebrate a holiday known as Woman’s Day.
Traditional gifts include red roses, hyacinths or tulips. When there is a funeral or other occasion where
someone wishes to express sympathy, carnations, lilies or roses are given in circular configurations, which
signify the transition of birth, life and death to rebirth. In this instance, the color of choice is commonly
yellow. For joyous occasions, arrangements and bouquets generally contain an odd number of flowers.
In the times of ancient Rome, brides carried flowers to scare away evil spirits and encourage fertility. The
Dutch believed that flowers were food for the soul. When invited to someone’s home in Great Britain, it is
tradition to bring a gift of flowers. All types are acceptable except white lilies, which are usually seen at
funerals. Not unlike the United States, red roses are a symbol of love. Flowers are generally gifted in odd
numbered increments regardless of the occasion. However, the Brits also have superstitions regarding the
number 13, so the number is avoided.
In the southern region of the continent, flowers are traditionally given during Christmas. Egyptians are
much more conservative and restrict flower gifting to funerals and weddings. While certain flowers may have
significant meanings for some, flowers in Las Vegas and across the United States are an accepted gift for any
reason desired.

Living things like plants, animals, and people need energy to survive and grow. People eat food for energy,
but most plants use energy that they get from sunlight. When you look at plants such as a tree, flower, or grass,
what do you see? You might notice their stems, trunks, branches, leaves, roots, or flowers, but how do they
grow? What are they made from? How did the plant make those parts?
Different environments could be oceans, forests, deserts, or cities. Each environment also has its own
climate, which is partially based on how much sun and rain an area receives every year.
Since only certain plants grow in hot, cool, wet, or dry climates, each environment is made up of different
types of plant life. A desert may grow palm trees and cacti, while a forest may grow tall pines or oak trees. In
order for a plant to grow, it needs three very important puzzle pieces: water, carbon dioxide, and light. Plants
use their roots to take in water from the ground. They use their leaves to take in sunlight and carbon dioxide
from the air.
Plants use these three puzzle pieces to make their own food in a process called photosynthesis. Using the
energy from the sun, plants convert water and carbon dioxide into sugar. This sugar feeds the plant’s growth
from a seedling into an adult. In the process, the plant releases oxygen into the air. Another important piece to
the growth of many plants is soil. Using their roots, plants take in nutrients from the soil that helps them grow.
Giving a plant a spot in clean soil is important to make sure it doesn’t absorb anything harmful from the dirt.
Plants make their food from carbon dioxide, water and light. They use this food to grow stems, trunks,
roots, branches, leaves, and flowers. Now when you look at a tree, flower, or even a blade of grass, you can
see all the pieces of the plant and how the entire puzzle fits together.

If you go back far enough, everything lived in the sea. At various points in evolutionary history,
enterprising individuals within many different animal groups moved out onto the land, sometimes even to the
most parched deserts, taking their own private seawater with them in blood and cellular fluids. In addition to
the reptiles, birds, mammals and insects which we see all around us, other groups that have succeeded out of
water include scorpions, snails, crustaceans such as woodlice and land crabs, millipedes and centipedes,
spiders and various worms. And we mustn’t forget the plants, without whose prior invasion of the land, none
of the other migrations could have happened.
Moving from water to land involved a major redesign of every aspect of life, including breathing and
reproduction. Nevertheless, a good number of thoroughgoing land animals later turned around, abandoned
their hard-earned terrestrial re-tooling, and returned to the water again. Seals have only gone part way back.
They show us what the intermediates might have been like, on the way to extreme cases such as whales and
dugongs. Whales (including the small whales we call dolphins) and dugongs, with their close cousins, the
manatees, ceased to be land creatures altogether and reverted to the full marine habits of their remote
ancestors. They don’t even come ashore to breed. They do, however, still breathe air, having never developed
anything equivalent to the gills of their earlier marine incarnation. Turtles went back to the sea a very long
time ago and, like all vertebrate returnees to the water, they breathe air. However, they are, in one respect, less
fully given back to the water than whales or dugongs, for turtles still lay their eggs on beaches.
There is evidence that all modern turtles are descended from a terrestrial ancestor which lived before most
of the dinosaurs. There are two key fossils called Proganochelys quenstedti and Palaeochersis talampayensis
dating from early dinosaur times, which appear to be close to the ancestry of all modern turtles and tortoises.
You might wonder how we can tell whether fossil animals lived in land or in water, especially if only
fragments are found. Sometimes it’s obvious. Ichthyosaurs were reptilian contemporaries of the dinosaurs,
with fins and
streamlined bodies. The fossils look like dolphins and they surely lived like dolphins, in the water. With turtles
it is a little less obvious. One way to tell is by measuring the bones of their forelimbs.

Although many students are sick and tired of putting on their school uniform day after day, a uniform does
have its advantages. For a start, students have no need to worry about what to put on when they get up in the
morning. Students know that in uniform they look more or less the same as their classmates. As a result, their
parents don't feel under pressure to provide a huge wardrobe of clothes for them to wear. (26) , it seems
that children wearing the same colours and styles of clothing gain a sense of belonging, something (27)
improves morale at school and reduces levels of violence.
This theory has been supported by a study at a school in Long Beach, California. Staff members there have
noticed that since school uniform became compulsory, the number of arguments amongst pupils has dropped
by as much as 91%. This suggests that students who are all dressed in the same simple school shirts and
trousers are less likely to disagree with one (28) . On the other hand, Cozette Buckley, an Education Officer
from Chicago, holds a rather different view, based on experience in her schools. In her opinion, school
uniforms are not a permanent solution but only a (29) aid to playground problems
because they do not address the real source of conflict between children. It seems, therefore, (30) by these
conflicting findings, that the school uniform debate isn't closed yet!

Currently, the biggest threat to Australia sea lion colonies are gillnets, which are invisible, thin mesh nets
suspended in the water. Gillnets are used by commercial fisheries to capture sharks. However, Australian sea
lions also get snagged in the mesh of gillnets and drown. The only solution to accidental gillnet deaths and
other fishery-related deaths of sea lions is to close the areas where sea lions forage for food out at sea and
prevent fishing with gillnets in those areas.
Australian Marine Conservation Society (AMCS) worked with the government, scientists and the fishing
industry to come up with a solution to ensure sea lion colonies were protected, only brought about by the
support of the Australian public.
The distribution of Australia sea lion colonies in South Australia overlaps with a fishery managed by the
Federal Government agency, the Australian Fisheries Management Authority (AFMA). Due to the proximity
between the fishery and sea lion colonies, fishing was killing a high number of sea lions.
The areas of sea directly around sea lion breeding colonies are closed to gillnet fishing, and now, every
fishing boat that fishes anywhere near sea lion colonies has to have cameras on board to monitor what is
being
Page 42 of

Page 43 of

caught. This means that if a sea lion gets killed, it now gets reported to AFMA. And when a sea lion does get
killed, further areas are closed to all gillnet fishing to ensure sea lion colonies do not decline even further.
This means that through the activity of AMCS, our wonderful supporters and other environmental
organisations, potentially hundreds of vulnerable Australian sea lions have been protected from drowning in
this fishery.
Question 31. Which of the following best serves as the title for the article? (Adapted from https://amcs.org.au/)
A. Australia Sea Lion Colonies and Gillnets B. How to Use Gillnets to Catch Sea Lions
C. Threats to Australian Sea Lions D. Australian Fishing Industry
Question 32. How to solve the problem of accidental gillnet deaths of sea lions, according to the passage?
A. Allow commercial fisheries to capture sharks only
B. Use gillnets to take care of sea lions when they are weak
C. Close the areas where sea lions forage for food and stop using gillnets
D. Increase the distance between the fishery and sea lion colonies
Question 33. The word “breeding” in paragraph 4 is closest in meaning to .
A. offspring B. fishing C. fishery D. sea
Question 34. According to the passage, which of the following is NOT mentioned as someone who protects
Australian sea lions?
A. AMCS B. fishers

Question 35. The word “that” in paragraph 5 refers to .

The recession has brought about an abrupt change of mood on university campuses up and down the
country. A five-year boom in the graduate job market has been stopped in its tracks and salary expectations.
No wonder only one in five of 16,000 final year students questioned for a survey by High Flyers Research
said that they expected to get a job for which they are qualified by the time they graduate.
Despite the gloom, the financial case for going to university remains compelling. International surveys
continue to show the salary premium enjoyed by UK graduates over those who choose not to go to university
as among the highest in the world. In the post-recession world, a university degree is likely to be even more of
an advantage to job-seekers than before.
But choosing the right degree course and the right university will also be more important than ever. This
does not necessarily mean that students should go only for job-related degrees, but it will put a premium on
marketable skills. And it may mean that more universities can be expected to follow the lead of Liverpool
John Moores University, which puts all of its undergraduates through a World of Work (WoW) course
designed to give them the problem-solving and communication skills they’ll need at work.
The Times Good University Guide 2010, published by HarperCollins, offers a wealth of essential
information to help candidates to navigate the maze of university choice, as well as advice on students’ life. It
is the most authoritative guide to universities in the UK and is an essential and comprehensive tool for
students and parents.
The online version of the Guide allows students and parents to create their own individual university
rankings and to compare the strengths and weaknesses of different institutions by sorting universities
according to one of the eight criteria - from student satisfaction to research quality and degree results. The
table sees Oxford maintain its leadership, despite coming below Cambridge in most of the subject tables.
Cambridge has the better record on student satisfaction, research, entry standards, completion and graduate
destinations, but Oxford’s lead in staffing levels, degree classifications and particularly in spending on
libraries and other student facilities makes the difference.
(Adapted from “Reading for IELTS” by Els Van Geyte)
Question 36. What does the passage mainly discuss?
A. The guidelines for students and parents to choose the right university
B. High possibilities for UK undergraduates to get a job for which they are qualified
C. The relationship between the current economic situation and university campuses
D. The comparison of UK graduates’ salaries with those of people without qualifications

Question 38. More universities can be expected .

C. to increase their marketable skills D. to teach some skills necessary at the workplace
Question 39. The word “compelling” in paragraph 2 is closest in meaning to .
A. inevitable B. fascinating C. impossible D. pessimistic
Question 40. The word “It” in paragraph 4 refers to .
A. the maze of university choice B. essential information
C. HarperCollins D. the Times Good University Guide 2010
Question 41. Which of the following is NOT true, according to the passage?

Healthy mind, healthy body
“A healthy mind lives in a healthy body” is a saying (26) is believed to have often been used by the
ancient Greeks. Thousands of years later, the same idea still applies. According to health experts, it’s
advisable to drink eight to ten glasses of water every day. (27) , water itself is not enough; a balanced
diet is essential, too.
A healthy body naturally is the result of doing exercise. Many people, however, do not like gyms and
object to going there for different reasons. Some, for instance, say that aerobic sessions are too difficult to
follow while (28) claim that gyms are just too expensive. Many people also claim that
they have difficulty in finding time to exercise due to their (29) lifestyle, but the truth is that everyone
can make a little time every now and then. Regardless of the way people choose to exercise, it is important to
remember that there’s no point in doing it only for a short period of time.
Last but not least, having a positive attitude and doing away with negative (30) contributes to one’s
well-being. In short, following this simple advice surely helps in having a healthy mind and body.

While experts can estimate what the economic fallout from a pandemic such as the coronavirus will be, the
precise impact will vary based on how many people are affected, how severely it hits, and which societal
interventions are necessary to contain its spread.
Financial projections for COVID-19 run the gamut. The Organization for Economic Cooperation and
Development, an entity with 36 member countries, estimated earlier this month that a long-lasting and severe
coronavirus pandemic that spreads throughout Asia, Europe and North America could cut the global growth
rate to 1.5% in 2020. That is roughly half the growth the world economy would otherwise achieve.
A separate analysis by the consulting firm McKinsey & Company offers a similar outlook. Its research
suggests that a more severe COVID-19 pandemic, in which city and suburban residents would have to
significantly change their work habits and otherwise distance themselves socially for six to eight weeks,
could cut global GDP in half, to between 1% and 1.5%.
Increasingly, those projections look too rosy for the situation that is now unfolding. Already, roughly 1 in
3 Americans are being ordered to stay indoors, creating a huge drag on consumer demand and worker
productivity. Goldman Sachs estimates that as many as 2.25 million Americans will make their initial filing
for unemployment benefits this week, a roughly eight-fold increase from last week.

The chief U.S. economist for Oxford Economics, Greg Daco, told the New York Times last week that a
recession is all but inevitable. He estimates that GDP will sink 0.4% in the first quarter before plunging 12%
in the second quarter. Goldman Sachs offered an even more dire estimate, suggesting a second-quarter decline
of 24%.
(Adapted from https://www.investopedia.com/)
Question 31. Which of the following best serves as the title for the article?
A. Experts’ estimation of COVID-19 B. Global GDP cut due to COVID-19
C. COVID-19 in comparison with Spanish Flu D. The assessment of Coronavirus’ impact

Question 33. According to the passage, which of the following is NOT mentioned as the continent affected by

We all know about the pleasure and fun that you can get from playing video games. There’s the
satisfaction of finally reaching the last level of a game after months of trying, or the thrill of beating your best
friend in a game for the first time. But some experts now say that as well as offering fantastic entertainment,
video games might also be good for you.
It seems that when you play video games, you might be acquiring some very important skills. For a start,
games are great for your concentration. Being able to focus on a task for an extended period of time is
definitely a skill you can use at school or later, in a job. Because you have to think incredibly quickly, video
games can also stimulate your brain and improve the speed at which you react. Fitness games, which are very
popular, allow you to practise sports techniques like balancing or hitting balls from the comfort of your living
room. A lot of games also teach decision-making skills. For example, when you have to choose the best way
to escape from a burning building in a game, you’re learning how to solve problems and use your judgment
quickly, and under pressure - skills that will be very useful later in life. Gaming teaches you about success and
failure too. The fact that a lot of games are difficult, and you have to work hard to reach that top level, teaches
you that in life you can succeed if you keep on trying. On the other hand, games teach you that if you fail, you
don’t give up – you have a break, and then try again!
Some psychologists believe that role-playing games are particularly valuable. In the virtual environment,
young people can take on roles that are often not available to them in real life. You can become a leader, and
have to deal with people who lie to you, hide things from you or want to destroy you. By dealing with these
situations, you can develop social skills that might help you in the real world when you’re older.
Gaming does have its downsides, of course. Playing for a while is great, but people who play for hours on
end can have problems. Physically, it can stop you from getting enough exercise, which is unhealthy.
Psychologically, there is evidence that some players can become addicted to their games and begin to prefer
their ‘virtual’ lives, where they are always in control. It is sometimes claimed that very violent games can
have a negative effect on players and lead to violence in real life. Although there isn’t much evidence to
support this, it is an argument that will go on and on.
But overall, the message is that playing video games is not harmful, unless you spend too much time on
them. And while you’re building your city, looking after your farm, defeating your enemies or making your
fortune in a game, you’re also developing skills that will stay with you for the rest of your life.
(Adapted from “Prepare 6” by James Styring and Nicholas Tims)
Question 36. What does the passage mainly discuss?
