Australia is a huge country, and the Outback (the
Australian word for the interior of the country) is
desert. Some years it rains only 8 centimetres in the
outback, but other years rainstorms turn the desert
into sandy swamps. Until the eighteenth century,
only aborigines lived in Australia. These are tall,
thin, brown - skinned people, the first people in
Australia. When Europeans went there to live, they
built towns on the coast. However, by the 1850s,
people began thinking more about the interior. In
1860, Robert O'Hara Burke, a police officer from
Ireland, was chosen to lead an expedition across
the continent from south to north. He took with him
William John Wills and 11 other men, camels,
horses, and enough supplies for a year and a half .
They left Melbourne for the gulf of Carpentaria on

authority in Australia

The peninsula of Gibraltar used to present difficulties
for visitors. When its border with. Spain was closed
by General Franco to protest against British
occupation, the accepted route from Spain was a
mixture of ferry, bus and ship via the African
mainland. This was, of course, expensive and time-
consuming, and visitors sometimes preferred to
undertake the trip by private yacht instead. Another
alternative was to arrange your passage on one of
the many illegal freighters which maintained the

mainland.

Angry quarrels often arise in families when
differences in lifestyle come between parents and
their teenage children. Mrs Ashby, an
acknowledged psychologist, recommends talking to
teenagers properly, not like little children. Conflicts
should be discussed in an ordered, unemotional
way. Giving children clear reasons for parents'
demands could defuse a potentially explosive
situation; on the other hand, she suggests that
parents should care for what the adolescent need.
Ashby urges them to try to reach a compromise;
agree on quite an early homecoming time during
the week, but a later one at the weekend, for
instance.
64. One can easily infer from the passage that …….
A) there are no families living without quarrelling
B) many rows in a family result from the
difference in the view of parents and their
teenage children
C) Mrs Ashby is the unique expert to help the
both sides
D) every member of families needs a psychologist
E) almost all fathers and mothers treat their
children as if they're still babies
65. According to the passage the only way to settle
the dispute between teenagers and their
parents is ……...
A) to ignore the differences in lifestyles
B) to provide whatever teenagers need
C) to reach an agreement on what they expect
the other side to do
D) not to tolerate teenagers for their demands
E) to discuss the problems without forgetting that
teenagers aren't adults yet
66. Mrs Ashby advises ............................. .
A) parents to avoid admitting their teenage
children as too little while speaking to them
B) parents to consult a psychologist about the
matters which will probably cause a serious
quarrel
C) parents not to let the adolescent come home
late in the evening
D) children not to be emotional while speaking to
their parents
E) both sides not to be too permissive in a debate

act unconsciously . In this view , behaviour differs
from instinct . Animals behave without thinking
about the action they're doing at that moment.
