It is true that keeping fit will benefit a person’s health in many ways. It has become clear in recent years,
that a large number of people are doing less and less exercise and this is now causing many serious illnesses,
putting a strain on doctors and hospitals. However, some experts believe that too much exercise can do just
as much (25) _______ .
Although it is true that moderate exercise such as walking can be very beneficial to a person’s health, it is
not the only one factor (26) _______ keeps us healthy. Diet is also extremely important and I would argue
that it is probably even more important than exercise, although the ideal is for both of these factors to work
together. It seems to me that many people are unwilling to put in the effort required to become fitter.
(27) ________, too much exercise can also cause problems. So people are urged to take moderate
exercise and eat moderately healthily rather than embarking on extreme diets and training. In too many
instances, ultra–fit people have had heart attacks or dropped down dead.
In all, governments need to find ways of (28) ________ people to take responsibility for their own
health. People need to realize that eating healthy food does not have to cost a (29) _______, nor is it
difficult to prepare healthy meals themselves. People need to be better educated about their health.

Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C or D on your answer sheet to indicate the correct
answer to each of the questions from 30 to 34.
What is meant by the term economic resources? In general, these are all the natural, man–made, and
human resources that go into the production of goods and services. This obviously covers a lot of ground:
factories and farms, tools and machines, transportation and communication facilities, all types of natural

2
resources, and labor. Economic resources can be broken down into two general categories: proper resources–
land and capital– and human resources– labor and entrepreneurial skills.
What do economists mean by land? Much more than the non–economist. Land refers to all natural
resources that are usable in the production process: arable land, forests, mineral and oil deposits, and so on.
What about capital? Capital goods are all the man–made aids to producing, storing, transporting, and
distributing goods and services. Capital goods differ from consumer goods in that the latter satisfy wants
directly, while the former do so indirectly by facilitating the production of consumer goods. It should be
noted that capital as defined here does not refer to money. Money, as such, produces nothing.
The term labor refers to the physical and mental talents of humans used to produce goods or services
(with the exception of a certain set of human talents, entrepreneurial skills, which will be considered
separately because of their special significance). Thus the services of a factory worker or an office worker, a
ballet dancer or an astronaut all fall under the general heading of labor.
Question 30: What is the author's main purpose in writing this passage?
A. To explain the concept of labor. B. To criticize certain uses of capital.
C. To contrast capital goods and consumer goods. D. To define economic resources.
Question 31: The phrase “the latter” refers to .
A. non–economists B. consumer goods C. capital goods D. economist
Question 32: When non–economists use the term "land", its definition .
A. is much more restrictive than when economists use it
B. is much more general than when economists use it
C. includes all types of natural resources
D. changes from place to place
Question 33: Which of the following could be considered a capital good as defined in the passage?
A. A railroad B. A coal deposit C. Human skills D. Money
Question 34: The word “arable” is closer in meaning to .
A. dry B. open C. developed D. fertile
answer to each of the following questions from 35 to 42.
No sooner had the first intrepid male aviators safely returned to Earth than it seemed that women, too, had
been smitten by an urge to fly. From mere spectators, they became willing passengers and finally pilots in
their own right, plotting their skills and daring line against the hazards of the air and the skepticism of their
male counterparts. In doing so they enlarged the traditional bounds of a women's world, won for their sex a
new sense of competence and achievement, and contributed handsomely to the progress of aviation.
But recognition of their abilities did not come easily. "Men do not believe us capable." The famed aviator
Amelia Earhart once remarked to a friend. "Because we are women, seldom are we trusted to do an efficient
job." Indeed old attitudes died hard: when Charles Lindbergh visited the Soviet Union in 1938 with his wife,
Anne–herself a pilot and gifted proponent of aviation – he was astonished to discover both men and women
flying in the Soviet Air Force.
Such conventional wisdom made it difficult for women to raise money for the up – to – date equipment
they needed to compete on an equal basis with men. Yet they did compete, and often they triumphed finally
despite the odds.
Ruth Law, whose 590 – mile flight from Chicago to Hornell, New York, set a new nonstop distance
record in 1916, exemplified the resourcefulness and grit demanded of any woman who wanted to fly. And
when she addressed the Aero Club of America after completing her historic journey, her plainspoken
wordstestified to a universal human motivation that was unaffected by gender: "My flight was done with no
expectation of reward," she declared, "just purely for the love of accomplishment."
Question 35: Which of the following is the best title for this passage?
A. A Long Flight B. Women in Aviation History
C. Dangers Faced by Pilots D. Women Spectators
Question 36: According to the passage, women pilots were successful in all of the following EXCEPT
________.
A. challenging the conventional role of women B. contributing to the science of aviation
C. winning universal recognition from men D. building the confidence of women
Question 37: What can be inferred from the passage about the United States Air Force in 1938?
A. It had no women pilots. B. It gave pilots handsome salaries.
C. It had old planes that were in need of repair. D. It could not be trusted to do an efficient job.
3
Question 38: In their efforts to compete with men, early women pilots had difficulty in ________.
A. addressing clubs B. flying nonstop C. setting records D. raising money
Question 39: According to the passage, who said that flying was done with no expectation of reward?
A. Amelia Earhart B. Charles Lindbergh C. Anne Lindbergh D. Ruth Law
Question 40: The word “skepticism” is closest in meaning to ____________.
A. hatred B. doubt C. support D. surprise
Question 41: The word “addressed” can be best replaced by ___________ .
A. mailed B. came back to C. spoke to D. consulted

A. passengers B. pilots C. skills D. hazards

Newspapers and television news programs always seem to report about the bad things happening in
society. However, there is a place where readers can find some good news. That place is the website called
HappyNews. The man behind HappyNews is Byron Reese. Reese set up HappyNews because he thought
other news sources were giving people an unbalanced view of the world. Reese said about
HappyNews, “The news media gives you a distorted view of the world by exaggerating bad news, misery,
and despair. We’re trying to balance out the scale.”
Not everyone agrees with Reese’s view, though. Many people think that news sources have a
responsibility to provide news that is helpful to people. People need to know about issues or problems in
today’s society. Then they are better able to make informed decisions about things that affect their daily
6
lives. Reese said that HappyNews is not trying to stop people from learning about issues or problems.
HappyNews is just trying to provide a balanced picture of today’s world.
By the end of its first month online, HappyNews had more than 70,000 unique readers. About 60 percent
of those readers were women. Something else unique makes HappyNews different from any of the other
news or information websites that are on the Internet. Unlike many other websites, HappyNews gets fan mail
from its readers on a daily basis.

A. “Byron Reese Tells People How to Be Happy” B. “Good News for a Change”

answer to each of the following questions from 35 to 42.
In the history of technology, computers and calculators were innovative developments. They are
essentially different from all other machines because they have a memory. This memory stores instructions
and information. In a calculator, the instructions are the various functions of arithmetic, which are
permanently remembered by the machine and cannot be altered or added to. The information consists of the
numbers which are keyed in.
An electronic pocket calculator can perform almost instant arithmetic. A calculator requires an input unit
to feed in numbers, a processing unit to make the calculation, a memory unit, and an output unit to display
the result. The calculator is powered by a small battery or by a panel of solar cells. Inside is a microchip that
contains the memory and processing units and also controls the input unit, which is the keyboard, and the
output unit, which is the display.
The input unit has keys for numbers and operations. Beneath the key is a printed circuit board containing
a set of contacts for each key. Pressing a key closes the contacts and sends a signal along a pair of lines in
the circuit board to the processing unit, in which the binary code for that key is stored in the memory. The
processing unit also sends the code to the display. Each key is connected by a different pair of lines to the
processing unit, which repeatedly checks the lines to find out when a pair is linked by a key.
The memory unit stores the arithmetic instructions for the processing unit and holds the temporary results
that occur during calculation. Storage cells in the memory unit hold the binary codes for the keys that have
been pressed. The number codes, together with the operation code for the plus key, are held in temporary
cells until the processing unit requires them.
When the equals key is pressed, it sends a signal to the processing unit. This takes the operation code - for
example, addition - and the two numbers being held in the memory unit and performs the operation on the
two numbers. After the addition is done, the result goes to the decoder in the calculator's microchip. This
code is then sent to the liquid crystal display unit, which shows the result, or output, of the calculation.
Question 35: What is the main purpose of the passage?
A. To summarize the history of technology
B. To explain how a calculator works

bread and pasta. As well as being packed (28) ______ vitamins and minerals, they are delicious too.
Secondly, it’s important to fit exercise into your daily (29) _______ . This can be done by simply walking as
much as possible and climbing stairs instead of taking the lift. Exercise is necessary to maintain a healthy body,
as well as increasing energy levels and making you feel generally fitter and happier. Finally, staying relaxed is

answer to each of the questions.
Right now, the biggest source of energy in the world is fossil fuel. Fossil fuels are oil, gas, and coal. More
than 80 percent of the world's energy comes from fossil fuel. There are many problems with fossil fuel. One
problem is that when fossil fuel is burned, it pollutes the air. Also, when we take fossil fuel from the Earth, we
often cause a lot of damage. Another problem is that we are running out of it. That is why we need new sources
of energy. A big source of energy for many countries is nuclear power. Thirty-one countries use nuclear power.
Many ships also use it.
Nuclear power has some advantages. First of all, we can't run out of nuclear power. Nuclear power does not
make the air dirty. Also, if a country has nuclear power, it doesn't need to buy as much as oil from other
countries.
However, there are also a lot of problems that come with nuclear power. For example, nuclear accidents are
very serious. In 1986, there was a nuclear accident in Ukraine. In the next 20 years, about 4,000 people got sick
and died. In 2011, there was another very serious nuclear accident in Japan. Japan is still trying to clean up the
nuclear waste from the accident.
Many people don't want nuclear power in their countries. They say that it is not safe. A lot of people want
their countries to use safer and cleaner ways to get electricity. There have been protests against nuclear energy
in the United States, Russia, France, Taiwan, Japan, India, and many other countries.
Although many people hate nuclear energy, more and more countries are using it. One reason for this is that
the world is using more and more energy. We just don't have enough fossil fuel. However, if we use nuclear
power, then we may have more serious problems in the future.
31. Which of the following is NOT true about fossil fuel?
A. It can pollute the air. B. We don't use much of it.
C. Its sources are limited. D. Mining fossil fuel can bring harm to the environment.
32. All of the following are true about nuclear accidents EXCEPT that ___________ .
A. they have been very serious B. their effects can last many years
12
C. it doesn't take us much time to clean up the nuclear waste from the accident
D. there were serious nuclear accidents in Ukraine in 1986 and in Japan in 2011
33. The phrase "clean up" in paragraph 3 is closest in meaning to _______.
A. block B. evacuate C. disappear D. remove
34. What does the word "They" in paragraph 4 refer to?
A. countries B. protesters C. officials D. supporters
35. Which of the following statements would the author of the passage support most?
A. Some governments are wrong when they are using nuclear energy.
B. We should consider seriously the nuclear power because it has both advantages and disadvantages.
C. We can continue using nuclear energy until there is an accident.
D. Many people don't want nuclear power in their countries and governments should follow their people.
LIFE IN THE FAST LANE
Henrietta Lake talks to a remarkable 14-year-old entrepreneur who is certainly going places. Between
studying for nine GCSEs, including business studies, 14-year-old Dominic McVey has set up his own company,
Scooters UK. The business, which imports motorized scooters and skateboards from the United States, has
already made a profit of over £5,000 on sales of the equipment.
Dominic needed £3,000 to set up his business and pay for the initial stock. He used savings from birthday
and Christmas money and cashed in some investments that his father had made when Dominic was born. The
young entrepreneur had also invested in shares on the stock market. “I had to do the deals in my dad’s name
because I was too young,” he says, “but he doesn’t know anything about the market, so I told him what to buy
and sell.”
“I realized the potential for the business when I noticed that a lot of inner-city streets were being closed to
cars or they were chock-a-block with traffic,” he explains. “I thought there would be a great market for these
scooters and skateboards, particularly now that more restrictions on cars in town centres have been introduced.”
“You can take a smaller one with you on a train in a backpack and then unfold it and use it when you get into
town. Men in suits are riding them up and down Wall Street in the US and it is my aim to get them to do the
same in this country. I approached the American manufacturer and, after doing some research into their
company and the scooters, I was allowed to become their UK distributor.”
The motorized scooters, which sell for £499 and can travel at up to 22 mph, are not classified as motor
vehicles and do not need a license or tax. He also sells unmotorized skateboards for £129. They have special
high-speed wheels and are capable of reaching 10 mph.
“I ride them around town in busy areas and usually end up with a crowd of people running down the street
wanting to know where to buy them, or winding down their car windows at traffic lights,” he says. Recently he
went with his mother on a sales trip to Paris. “The scooters are really popular there because the centre of the city
is pedestrianized at the weekend. I went out with 500 leaflets and came back with none.”
In the early stages Dominic had to overcome one or two obstacles. When he tried to open a business account
at his bank, he made an appointment to see the manager. However, the bank thought it was a joke, and when he
arrived there they had not set up any time for the meeting. “This really upset me,” says Dominic, “but I
managed to get a good rate of interest on the account because they were so embarrassed. I think people should
take children more seriously.”
Now that he has succeeded in setting up the business Dominic wants to expand it. At the moment, the
company is still importing scooters in small numbers. “But business is picking up and so I am ordering a big
container of 106 scooters in the-new year.” Dominic is aiming to sell 500 scooters over the next 12 months. "I
think it is worth taking the risk when you are young: if the worst happens, I have my parents’ support and I am
still at school.”
He also plans to open a showroom for his scooters in the City of London, “right by some traffic lights so
people stop and look”. His idea would then be to sell the business and look for further opportunities to make
money. “I’d like to be able to retire before I’m 40,” he tells me.
36. How did Dominic raise the necessary money to set up his company?
A. He invested all his savings on the stock market. B. He borrowed it from his father.
C. He used money from a variety of sources. D. It was a birthday present.
37. What does Dominic mean when he says that streets were “chock-a-block with traffic” in paragraph 3?
A. Cars were not allowed to enter them. B. They were full of vehicles.
C. Traffic prevented scooters from entering them. D. They had street markets in them.

A. He went shopping with his mother. B. He wanted to see the new pedestrian precinct.

A. prevents him taking himself too seriously. B. means that things are more likely to go wrong.
C. is a good time to be adventurous. D. is a source of concern to his parents.

SCIENTIFIC DISCOVERIES
A satellite is best understood as a projectile, or an object that has only one force acting on
gravity. Technically speaking, anything that crosses the Karman Line at an altitude of
kilometers (62 miles) is considered in space. However, a satellite needs to be going fast — at
least 8 km (5 miles) a second - to stop from falling back down to Earth immediately.
If a satellite is traveling fast enough, it will perpetually "fall" toward Earth, but the Earth's
curvature means that the satellite will fall around our planet instead of crashing back on the
surface. Satellites that travel closer to Earth are at risk of falling because the drag of
atmospheric molecules will slow the satellites down. Those that orbit farther away from Earth
have fewer molecules to contend with.
There are several accepted "zones" of orbits around the Earth. One is called low-Earth-orbit,
which extends from about 160 to 2,000 km (about 100 to 1,250 miles). This is the zone where
the ISS orbits and where the space shuttle used to do its work. In fact, all human missions
except for the Apollo flights to the moon took place in this zone. Most satellites also work in
28
this zone.
Geostationary or geosynchronous orbit is the best spot for communications satellites to use,
however. This is a zone above Earth's equator at an altitude of 35,786 km (22,236 mi). At this
altitude, the rate of "fall" around the Earth is about the same as Earth's rotation, which allows
the satellite to stay above the same spot on Earth almost constantly. The satellite thus keeps a
perpetual connection with a fixed antenna on the ground, allowing for reliable communications.
When geostationary satellites reach the end of their life, protocol dictates they're moved out of
the way for a new satellite to take their place. That's because there is only so much room, or so
many "slots" in that orbit, to allow the satellites to operate without interference.
While some satellites are best used around the equator, others are better suited to more polar
orbits - those that circle the Earth from pole to pole so that their coverage zones include the
north and south poles. Examples of polar-orbiting satellites include weather satellites and
reconnaissance satellites.

Question 8. Which of the following best serves as the title for the passage?
A. Parts of a satellite
B. Moons around other worlds
C. What keeps a satellite from falling to Earth?
D. What stops a satellite from crashing into another satellite?
Question 9. Which of the following best summaries paragraph 5?
A. All satellites circle the Earth from pole to pole.
B. Orbit of satellites depends on their coverage zones and using purpose.
C. Satellites are best used around the equator.
D. Satellites include weather satellites and reconnaissance satellites.
Question 10. Which of the following is mentioned in paragraph 4 as an element that makes a
satellite stay above the same spot on Earth?
A. Geostationary or geosynchronous orbit B. Earth's rotation

a complicated matter because in some situations, being a few minutes early on others means
being exactly on time and in some instances, it is completely acceptable to arrive 10 minutes to
a few hours later than the stated time. This can be a minefield for someone who is new to the
UK, so here are some basic rules that will help you get your timing right whatever the situation.
In formal meetings, such as job interviews, you should arrive at least five minutes before
your meeting. This will give you time to compose yourself before your big meeting. In the UK,
arriving late for a formal meeting is seen as unprofessional and will reflect badly on you. If you
are running late, ring your host to let them know you will be late. On arrival, apologize
30
sincerely and offer a reason for your lateness, such as you got lost or the train was delayed. It
will help you redeem yourself. However, if you are late because you set off later than you
should have, it's wise to keep that to yourself!
If you have been invited to a dinner party, you should arrive exactly on time as the host will
have planned when they will serve the food. You will find that your host will serve their guests
a pre-dinner drink, so that gives you a bit of wiggle room, but if you are running later than 10
minutes, you should ring your host and let them know how late you might be. That way they
can decide whether to go ahead and serve the other guests. When you arrive you should offer
the host and the other guests your apology for being late.
