The following text is for questions 23 and 24

I think my first trip to New Zealand was the best experience of my life . I met quite a lot of nice
people there. I made acquaintance with Jenny, Harry, Rexi, and Bryan. They introduced me to their
families. We had barbeque times in Rexi’s and Joseph’s houses. Joseph and Jenny are brother and sister
while Rexi and Bryan are twins.
You can find sheep almost everywhere in New Zealand. The tranquil meadow where the sheep
graze always appears in my mind every time I go to sleep. Jenny’s father has a lot of sheep and he
showed me his wool cutting machine, which he uses to collect the sheep’s fur before processing it into
wool thread.
For some people touring is a relaxing experience. Yet, for me it is completely the opposite. I had to
spend time more than 24 hours in the same clothes with greasy hair and 3 hours of sleep. I would rather
have travelled from Auckland to Milford Sound in easier way. We could have spent a night or so in a
hotel, not in our vehicle. However, having a bunch of friends along the way perked me up. It makes me
want to come back to New Zealand again.

Many controversies have sprung around rock music. Those who can not tolerate with this kind of
music consider it a negative influence on young people.
They do not approve of the way rockers dress and behave. Take for example, Ozzy Osbourne, a
famous rock star. He often bit the head of small animals and drank their blood on stage. Such an act is
affiliated with Satanism.

music. I think such cases show that heavy metal music, underground music or rock music is truly bad

raised by the first team fell. Ironically, the first team is still unknown till now.

The following text is for questions 38 and 41

The tone for much discussion, over the last 400 years, of the nature of mind and body was
certainly set by Descartes. Cartesian dualism postulated an apparently unbridgeable gap between minds
and bodies which drove some thinkers to materialism, others to idealism. 20 th century thinkers
have developed sophisticated versions of materialism, aided by recent discoveries about the
nervous systems and the brain.
Some 20thcentury materialists have argued that mental states are identical with states of the
brain, or reducible to them, in a way analogous to the way clouds are “reducible” to water droplets, or
nations to individual citizens. Others have argued for the possibility of eliminating all references to
thoughts and other mental notions in a completed account of the brain.
Yet other thinkers have thought that Descartes was conceptually confused. One of the most
powerful accounts of mental states and acts developed in recent years is functionalism. Perhaps
such mental “things” as thoughts, or fears, or beliefs, are nothing more than names for the way
in which certain purely physical things function. Functionalism is compatible with materialism,
thought it does not entail it in the way that identity theory or eliminative materialism does.

38. The materialist assumed that mental stated brain is a part of ....
A.Body
B. Mental

39. What does the text tell about?

A. There is the relationship between the mental states and the states of the brain.
B. There is no relationship between the mental states and the states of the brain.
C. The mental states are not identical with the states of the brain.
D. There is a connection between the body and the brain.
E. The brain has certain purely physical things function.

41. One of the most powerful accounts of mental states and acts developed in recent years is
functionalism.

The following text is for questions 42 and 46

Avian Influenza is an infection caused by Avian (bird) influenza (flu) viruses. These occur
naturally among birds. Wild birds worldwide carry the viruses in their intestines, but usually do not get
sick from them. However, avian influenza is very contagious among birds and can make some
domesticated birds, including chickens, ducks and turkeys, very sick and kill them.
Infected birds shed influenza virus in their saliva, nasal secretions and feces. Susceptible birds
become infected when they have contact with contaminated secretions or excretions from infected
birds. Domesticated birds may contact with surfaces ( such as dirt or cages) or materials such as water
or food ) that have been contaminated.
Infected with avian influenza viruses in domestic poultry causes two main forms of disease that
are distinguished by low and high extremes of virulence. The low pathogenic form may go un-detected
and usually causes only maid symptoms (such as ruffle feathers and a drop in reproduction. However,
the highly pathogenic form spreads more rapidly through flocks of poultry. This form may cause
