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 from 31 to 35.
People commonly complain that they never have enough time to accomplish tasks. The hours and minutes seem
to slip away before many planned chores get done. According to time management experts, the main reason for this
is that most people fail to set priorities about what to do first. They get tied down by trivial, time-consuming matters
and never complete the important ones.
One simple solution often used by those at the top is to keep lists of tasks to be accomplished daily. These lists
order jobs from most essential to least essential and are checked regularly through the day to access progress. Not
only is this an effective Way to manage time, but also it serves to give individuals a much- deserved sense of
satisfaction over their achievements. People who do not keep lists often face the end of the work day with
uncertainty over the significance of their accomplishments, which over time can contribute to serious problems in
mental and physical health
Question 31: Which of the following is the best title for the passage?
A. Common Complaints About Work B. Accomplishing Trivial Matters
C. Achieving Job Satisfaction D. Learning to Manage Time
Question 32: According to the passage, why do many people never seem to have enough time to accomplish
things?
A.They do not prioritize tasks.
B. They get tied down by one difficult problem
C. They fail to deal with trivial matters
D. They do not seek the advice of time management experts
Question 33: In paragraph 2, the word those refers to .
A. daily lists B. trivial matters C. priorities D. people
Question 34: The passage states that one solution to time management problems is to .
A. consult a time management expert B. accomplish time - consuming matters first
C. keep daily lists of priorities and check them regularly D. spend only a short time on each task
Question 35. The paragraph following the passage most probably discusses .
A. mental and physical health problems B. another solution to time management problems
C. ways to achieve a sense of fulfilment D. different types of lists
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 36 to 42.
Nature has always provided a stimulus for inventive minds. Early flying machines clearly were an attempt
to emulate the freedom of birds. Architects and engineers have often consciously modeled buildings on forms
found in nature. A more recent example of the inspiration given by nature is the invention of Velcro. The
inventor of this now common fastening device noticed that small burrs attached to his dog's coat grasped the
hairs by means of tiny hooks. This led him to invent a synthetic fabric whose surfaces mimic the clasping
properties of this natural seedpod.
Animals and plants have evolved solutions to the kinds of problems that often interest engineers and
designers. Much current research in material science is concerned with actively examining the natural world,
especially at the molecular level, for inspiration to develop materials with novel properties. This relatively new
field of study is sometimes known as biomimetics, since it consciously attempts to mimic nature.
Researchers have investigated several interesting areas. For example, they have studied how the molecular
structure of antler bone contributes to its amazing toughness, how the skin structure of a worm contributes to its
ability to crawl, how the sea cucumber softens its skeleton and changes shape so that it can squeeze through tiny
gaps in rocks, or what gives wood its high resistance to impact. These investigations have led to several
breakthroughs in the development of composite materials with remarkable properties.
Predictions for future inventions that may be developed from these lines of research include so-called smart
structures that design and repair themselves in a similar way to a variety of processes in the natural world. For
example, engineers have envisaged bridges that would detect areas heavily stressed by vehicle movement or
wind. The bridge structure would then automatically add or move material to the weak areas until the stress is
reduced. The same principle might be used to repair damaged buildings. Other new materials that have been
imagined are substances that would copy photosynthesis in green plants in order to create new energy sources.
The potential impact of biomimetic research is so great that the twenty-first century may come to be known as
the "Age of Materials."

Question 40:Which of the following does the word “it” in paragraph 3 refer to?
A. sea cucumber B. skeleton C. shape D. worm
Question 41: According to the passage, what do investigations in biomimetics suggest?
A. Biomimetics is not promising.
B. Biomimetics may lead to the development of new creatures.
C. Biomimetics may lead to useful inventions.
