answer to each of the questions from 28 to 34.
Stars have been significant features in the design of many United States coins and their number has varied
from one to forty–eight stars. Most of the coins issued from about 1799 to the early years of the twentieth
century bore thirteen stars representing the thirteen original colonies.
Curiously enough, the first American silver coins, issued in 1794, had fifteen stars because by that time
Vermont and Kentucky has joined the Union. At that time it was apparently the intention of mint officials
to add a star for each new state. Following the admission of Tennessee in 1796, for example, some varieties
of half dimes, dimes, and halfdollars were produced with sixteen stars.
As more states were admitted to the Union, however, it quickly became apparent that this scheme would
not prove practical and the coins from A798 on were issued with only thirteen stars–one for each of the
original colonies. Due to an error at the mint, one variety of the A828 half cent was issued with only twelve
stars. There is also a variety of the large cent with only A2 stars, but this is the result of a die break and is
not a true error.

Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, D on your answer sheet to indicate the correct
answer to each of the questions.
Who talks more – men or women? Most people believe that women talk more. However, linguist Deborah
Tannen, who has the studied the communication style of men and women, says that this is a stereotype.
According to Tannen, women are more verbal – talk more – in private situations, where they use
conversation as the “glue” to hold relationship together. But, she says, men talk more in public situations,
where they use conversation to exchange information and gain status. Tannen points out that we can see
these difference even in children. Little girls often play with one ‘best friend’ and their play includes a lot
of conversation. Little boys often play games in groups, their play usually involves more doing than talking.
In school, girls are often better at verbal skills, while boys are often better at mathematics.
A recent study at Emory University helps to shed light on the roots of this difference. Researchers studied
conversation between children aged 3–6 and their parents. They found evidence that parents talk very
differently to their sons than they do to their daughters. The startling conclusion was that parents use more
language with their girls. Specifically, when parents talk with their daughters, they use more descriptive
language and more details. There is also far more talk about emotions, especially with daughters than with
sons.
