Questions 19 through 22 refer to the following text.

Dear Grandma and Grandpa,
          Thank you both for the wonderful wedding present. Both Jill and I have always wanted to go to
France and visit the many museums. We were so shocked when we first saw the airplane tickets that we
almost fainted! It was more than we could have hoped to receive airplane tickets to France as a wedding
present! Paris is wonderful! The only trouble is trying to decide where to go. I want to go to the
museums, but Jill wants to see more of the beautiful traditional churches. In the end, we decided to see
the churches in the morning (when the weather is cool), and the museums in the afternoon (because
they’re air-conditioned). This allows us to get the most sight-seeing done during our two-week stay.
There are many coffee shops, too. Jill likes sitting outside and watching people, but I like sitting inside
where I can enjoy the smell of the coffee. French coffees are so much more aromatic and stronger than
the coffee we are used to back home. Thanks again for the lovely trip! We sent you a postcard, but I
think we will arrive back home before you get it. It is a picture of the Eiffel Tower.
Love,

Freddy and Jill

Questions 25 through 29 refer to the following text.

The First Computer Programmer
Ada Lovelace was the daughter of the poet Lord Byron. She was taught by Mary Somerville, a well-
known researcher and scientific author, who introduced her to Charles Babbage in June 1833. Babbage
was an English mathematician, who first had the idea for a programmable computer.
In 1842 and 1843, Ada translated the work of an Italian mathematician, Luigi Menabrea, on
Babbage's Analytical Engine. Though mechanical, this machine was an important step in the history of
computers; it was the design of a mechanical general-purpose computer. Babbage worked on it for many
years until his death in 1871. However, because of financial, political, and legal issues, the engine was
never built. The design of the machine was very modern; it anticipated the first completed general-
purpose computers by about 100 years.
When Ada translated the article, she added a set of notes which specified in complete detail a method
for calculating certain numbers with the Analytical Engine, which have since been recognized by
historians as the world's first computer program. She also saw possibilities in it that Babbage hadn't: she
realized that the machine could compose pieces of music. The computer programming language 'Ada',
used in some aviation and military programs, is named after her.
Question 25: Who is Mary Somerville?
A. A mathematician B. An unknown researcher
C. A scientific author D. The daughter of Lord Byron
Question 26: Who first had the idea for a programmable computer?
A. Lord Byron B. Charles Babbage C. Ada Lovelace D. Mary Somerville
Question 27: What did Ada do when she worked with Baggage?
A. She translated someone’s work. B. She talked to Baggage.
C. She recognized the historians. D. She built the machine.
Question 28: What was Babbage’s machine called?
A. A Modern Calculator B. Mechanical General-purpose Computer
C. Analytical Engine D. Luigi Menabrea

Question 29: What did Ada recognize but Baggage hadn’t?

A. She added a set of notes.
B. Some aviation and military program is named after her.
C. The program was the world's first computer program.
 D. The machine could compose music.
Question 30 refers to the following text
Reading Skill
Students can find out how fast they read by a simple method. First, they should count all of the
words on a page of a book. Then, they read the page as they time themselves. After finishing reading,
they should divide the number of words read by the number of minutes spent reading. That will give their
reading speed in words per minute. It is important that students read accurately even while timing
themselves. If they read too quickly, they might not understand the information. If that happens, their
reading will be of no use. Students must practice reading at a speed at which they can still understand.
Question 30:  According to the passage, what is the first step in determining your reading speed?
A. Timing yourself as you read the page of a book
B. Determining if you need to read faster
C. Dividing the number of words read by the number of minutes used
D. Counting the number of words on a page
