II. Read the following passage then choose the most appropriate answer from A,B,C or D
A UFO (Unidentified Flying Object) is any object flying in the sky, which cannot be
identified by the person who sees it. Sometimes the object is investigated. If people can still not figure
out what the object is after an investigation, it is called a UFO. If they figure out what the object is, it can
no longer be called a UFO because it has been identified.
Even though UFOs can be anything, people often use the word UFO when they are talking about
alien spacecraft. Flying saucer is another word that is often used to describe an unidentified flying object.
Studies estimate that 50% - 90% of all reported UFO sightings are identified later. Usually 10% -
20% are never identified. Studies also show that very few UFO sightings are hoaxes (people trying to
trick other people). Most UFOs are actually natural or manmade objects that looked strange. 80% - 90%
UFOs are identified as one of three different things: astronomical causes (for example: planets, stars, or
meteors); aircraft; balloons, 10% - 20% of UFOs are other causes (such as birds, clouds, mirages,
searchlights, etc.)

I. Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C or D to indicate the correct answer to
each of the questions.
Have you ever had a dream about traveling to another planet in our solar system? If you have,
there It an actual programme that is happening right now, and it hopes to send people to Man in 2023.
Known as the Man One Mission, it will send a crew of four people on a one-way mission to colonize
Man. Those chosen people will have to be ready to say good-bye to the earth forever, as there will not be
a return trip.
For the people chosen, they will have to learn to do many different things. First of all, they will be
living the rest of their lives with just a handful of other people, so they all must have personalities that
allow them to get along. Second, the living quarters that they will have won't be very spacious, so they
will have to deal with that condition as well. If they feel homesick, they will only be able to communicate
with people back on the earth via e-mail and videos and audio sent back and forth. However, there won't
be any real-time communication. Even at the speed of light, communication between the earth and Mars
takes about 20 minutes.
Whether the Mars One Mission will actually happen is the big question that a lot of people are
asking. There is an enormous skepticism in the science community, and Wired magazine gave the mission
a miserable score of two out of ten on its probability scale. However, for those who dream to go to Mars,
at least they can say there is a possibility that it could happen.
1. How long will it take for a message to come back from Mars?
A. Almost immediately B. About an hour

4. Who might like to go on this mission?
A. People with angry personalities
B. People who don't like to communicate
C. People who get along with others
D. People who get homesick easily
5. What will NOT happen to the people who go on the Mars One Mission?

Air pollution is a serious problem in many cities. Motor vehicles, factories and other sources create so
much air pollution that it may hang in the air like dirty fog. Air pollution threatens the health of the
people who live in cities. City wastes cause water pollution when they are poured into the waterways.
These wastes kill fish and make some areas unfit for swimming. In addition, many large cities have
difficulties in disposing of their garbage. The amount of garbage grows each year, but places to put it are
quickly filling up. Citizens, governments, industries, scientists, and business people must work together in
different ways to gradually reduce pollution. For example, most cities have introduced recycling
programmes.
