The following text is for questions 11 to 14.

The Colosseum or Coliseum is an oval amphitheatre in the centre of the city of
Rome, Italy. It is situated just east of the Roman Forum. The construction of the
Colosseum began under the emperor Vespasian in AD 72, and was completed in AD
80 under his successor and heir Titus.
The Colosseum could hold between 50,000 and 80,000 spectators, having an
average audience of some 65,000. It was used for gladiatorial contests and public
spectacles such as mock sea battles, animal hunts, executions, re-enactments of
famous battles, and dramas based on Classical mythology.
The Colosseum is an entirely free-standing structure. It is 189 meters long, and
156 meters wide, with a base area of 24,000 square metres.
 Now, there is a museum dedicated to Eros. It is located on an upper floor of the
outer wall of the building. This part of the arena floor has been re-floored. Beneath the
Colosseum, a network of subterranean passage ways once used to transport wild
animals and gladiators to the arena was opened to the public in the summer of 2010.
The Colosseum today is a major tourist attraction in Rome, with thousands of
tourists each year paying a lot of money to view the interior arena. However, entrance
for citizens of the European Union (EU) is partially subsidized, while entrance for EU
citizens under eighteen or over sixty-five years of age is free.

The following text is for questions 17 to 19.

The 14th century epidemic of the “Black Death,” also called the black plague or
bubonic plague, across Europe and Asia, has become one of the most infamous events
in history. The plague killed 30-60 percent of the entire population of Europe, claiming
a grand total of anywhere between 75 to 200 million lives. Population growth did not
resume until a full century later, and the world population did not recover until the 17th
century. The profound religious, social, and economic upheavals resulting from the
Black Plague were permanent.
The massive death toll caused an extreme labor shortage, which meant higher
wages for the peasants and a greater choice of who they wanted to work for. The land
was plentiful, and lords were forced to try and make conditions more attractive to the
peasants. Serfdom all but disappeared as a result, and this “golden age” of prosperity
would not be soon forgotten. Decades later, when the feudal lords tried to roll back
these benefits and return to the old ways, the result was widespread peasant revolts.
The Black Death also helped break the absolute authority of the Catholic Church.

The following text is for questions 20 to 23.

Very little is known about Icarus’s early life. We know that he was the son of
Daedalus, the master craftsman, and Naucrate, a slave at King Minos’s Palace at
Knossos. Daedalus was under the employ of King Minos and besides crafting tools and
other items for the king, he helped Pasiphae seduce the bull who eventually
impregnated her.
The end result of this deception was the Minotaur, a creature that was half man
and half bull. Enraged, King Minos enlisted Daedalus’s help in creating the Labyrinth,
which became the Minotaur’s prison and ultimate demise.
Even though Daedalus helped the king, Minos still blamed him for helping
Pasiphae seduce the bull. So he trapped Daedalus inside the Labyrinth that he created.
His son, Icarus, became a prisoner with him, too.
While locked inside the Labyrinth, Daedalus knew that he had to find a way for
them escape. Therefore, he created two pairs of wings – one for himself and one for
Icarus. These wings were designed to help them escape from the Labyrinth.
Because Daedalus was a brilliant inventor, he was able to create a pair of wings
that worked. The wings were made up of feathers that were bound together by pieces
of melted wax. Once the wings were completed, Daedalus knew that the wings would
help them fly out of the Labyrinth and away from the island of Crete.
When Daedalus gave wings to his son, Icarus, he cautioned him not to get too
zealous. He knew that flying was a different feeling because humans aren’t typically
able to fly, and he was concerned that Icarus would overdo it and cause himself harm.
His biggest caution was to avoid flying too close to the sun.
As soon as Icarus put on his wings, his father’s warnings were forgotten. He was
so engrossed with flying that he didn’t even notice that he was flying into the sun. Before
long, the sun melted the wax and the wings fell apart. Icarus fell to his death. To this
day, the part of the sea where Icarus fell bears his name. The Icarian Sea is located off
the coast of the island of Ikaria.

20. The story is about ….

A. King Minos’ bad temper
B. the greatness of Daedalus
C. the legend of the Icarian Sea
D. a master of craftmans and his son
E. a half man and half bull creature
 ANSWER: C

21. .How is paragraph 5 different from paragraph 7?

A. Paragraph 5 is Daedalus’ plan to teach Icarus to fly while paragraph 7 is about
how Icarus fell to the sea.
B. Paragraph 5 is about the materials used to make the wings while paragraph 7 is
about the location of the Icarian sea.
C. Paragraph 5 is about Daedalus’ success in making a pair of wings while paragraph
7 is about how Icarus fell to the sea.
D. Paragraph 5 is about the materials used to make the wings while paragraph 7 is
about Daedalus’ success in making a pair of wings
E. Paragraph 5 is about the Labyrinth used to imprison Daedalus while paragraph 7
is about the coast of the island of Ikaria.

The following text is for questions 27 to 30.

Hand sanitizer is a liquid, gel, or foam generally used to decrease infectious

agents on the hands. In most healthcare settings alcohol-based hand sanitizers are
preferable to handwashing with soap and water. However, hand sanitizers come with
certain side effects.
Firstly, hand sanitizer can increase the risk of eczema. Using a hand sanitizer that
contains at least 60% alcohol may increase the risk of hand dermatitis or 'eczema’
because of the "increased contact with irritants and allergens.' This commonly
manifests on the skin with redness, dryness, cracks, and even blisters that cause itch
or pain," Caroline Nelson, M.D. a Yale Medicine dermatologist and instructor at Yale
School of Medicine, says.
Secondly, hand sanitizer can irritate our skin. They are antiseptic products—they
are formulated to disinfect the skin. Vanessa Thomas, a cosmetic chemist, and founder
of Freelance Formulations says "The primary disinfecting ingredient in hand sanitizer
formulas is ethyl or isopropyl alcohol, and they are formulated along with thickeners
softeners and sometimes fragrances to curtail the strong smell of alcohol. Frequent use
of it can cause skin irritation, or dry out the skin. If you have sensitive skin, the effects
can be worse. The drying out is caused by alcohol."
Thirdly, "the overuse of alcohol-based hand sanitizers to safeguard against the
germs and infection-causing pathogens could inversely increase the risk of infection via
skin disorders. Overdoing may remove benign bacteria on the skin that is not good,"
says Dr. Norris.
The final thought from the doctors is that hand sanitizers are a good alternative
to reduce potentially infectious microbial load—such as viruses, bacteria, fungus—on
the hands or skin, if soap and water is not immediately available but it is not as good
as soap. Relying on hand sanitizers to keep hands clean may not be your best strategy.
27. What is the text concerned with?
A. The benefits of hand sanitizer
B. The formulation in hand sanitizer
C. The bad impacts of hand sanitizer
D. The irritation caused by hand sanitizer
E. The doctors’ recommendation related to hand sanitizer

ANSWER: C

28. The main idea of paragraph 2 is ….

A. hand sanitizer contains irritants and allergens
B. hand sanitizer can trigger to hand dermatitis or 'eczema’
C. using hand sanitizer is not recommended by dermatologists
D. the primary ingredient in hand sanitizer is ethyl or isopropyl alcohol
E. skin redness, dryness, cracks, and blisters can cause itch or pain

ANSWER: B

29. Frequent use of hand sanitizer can cause skin irritation … its formula consists of
alcohol, softeners, and fragrances.
A. due to
B. because
C. although
D. because of
E. as long as

ANSWER: B

30. Readers who agree with the writer’s opinion will most probably ….
A. stop using hand sanitizer

The following text is for questions 35 to 38.

No one wants to be left waiting first thing in the morning for that steamy cup of
coffee to kick-start a hectic day with a full schedule. Here are the steps to create the
perfect cup of coffee using your filter coffee machine.
1. Add a coffee filter to the filter basket
There are lots of different types of coffee filters to choose from, but you’ll often
find them branded as either ‘natural’ or ‘bleached’. Most coffee makers come with their
own mesh filter, and this usually the best option because it’s easy to use and you can
clean it when you need to.
2. Measure out your coffee
How much coffee you put in the filter depends on how much coffee you want to
make. It will also depend on your coffee machine and the type of coffee you’re making,
too.
Usually, you’ll need about two tablespoons of coffee for every six ounces of water,
but you should check your coffee maker for its perfect ratio. Some speciality blend
coffees can have different ratios too, but you can check the back of the package for
instructions.
3. Measure out your water
Your coffee pot will have markings on the side to help you measure out how much
water you need. To fill it up, there’s usually an opening behind or above the filter.
While it might be tempting to just pour the water through the filter basket, this
could cause some problems so just fill it up where it’s meant to go.
4. Plug the coffee maker in
Some machines will start brewing the coffee as soon as you turn it on, while others
might need you to press a button to get them going. Some also have a ‘time setting’,
so your coffee is ready when you need it.
5. Wait until the coffee has finished brewing before you pour it
We know, it’s tough to watch that pot take forever to fill, but a little patience will
be worth it in the end. Some machines do have a ‘pause’ option though, for those times
you just need it right away.
6. Throw away the paper filter
 If you’re using a paper filter, you should remove it and throw it away as soon as
you’ve used it, because leaving coffee grounds in the machine will make your next pot
of coffee too bitter.
If you’re using the mesh filter, make sure to throw to used coffee grounds in the
bin and give the filter a rinse.

The following text is for questions 45 to 48.

The ocean is never still. Whether observing from the beach or a boat, we expect
to see waves on the horizon. Waves are created by energy passing through water,
causing it to move in a circular motion. However, water does not actually travel in
waves. Waves transmit energy, not water, across the ocean and if not obstructed by
anything, they have the potential to travel across an entire ocean basin.
Waves are most commonly caused by wind. Wind-driven waves, or surface
waves, are created by the friction between wind and surface water. As the wind blows
across the surface of the ocean or a lake, the continual disturbance creates a wave
crest. These types of waves are found globally across the open ocean and along the
coast.
More potentially hazardous waves can be caused by severe weather, like a
hurricane. The strong winds and pressure from this type of severe storm cause storm
surge, a series of long waves that are created far from shore in deeper water and
intensify as they move closer to land. Other hazardous waves can be caused by
underwater disturbances that displace large amounts of water quickly such as
earthquakes, landslides, or volcanic eruptions. These very long waves are called
tsunamis. Storm surge and tsunamis are not the types of waves you imagine crashing
down on the shore. These waves roll upon the shore like a massive sea level rise and
can reach far distances island.
The gravitational pull of the sun and moon on the earth also causes waves. These
waves are tides or, in other words, tidal waves. It is a common misconception that a
tidal wave is also a tsunami. The cause of tsunamis are not related to tide information
at all but can occur in any tidal state.
