Scientific academies and associations played a key
role in the development of science prior to the 20th
century, providing a way for scientists to meet with
each other and sponsoring publications in journals
and books as a way to disseminate scientific
knowledge so that it could be shared by everyone.
These roles have continued through the 20th century
and into the 21st century. Scientific associations are
usually found organised along national lines or within
scientific disciplines. The Royal Society in the United
Kingdom, founded in 1660, is the premier example of
a national society; it has remained vigorous,
publishing journals, funding research, and electing
distinguished scientists to be fellows of the society.
Other prominent national societies have played more
important roles. The Royal Swedish Academy of
Sciences, for instance, selects the winners of the
scientific Nobel prizes and plays a much stronger role
in promoting research in different fields and
countries. National associations often function as a
method to promote interdisciplinary research, as do
the broader international associations. Today, almost
every scientific discipline has an association that also
engages in media relations, campaigns for funding
and promotion of science as a way to knowledge.
One of the best ways for historians to see that a
scientific subdiscipline has been successfully created
is to look for the founding of the accompanying
association.

international members
C) is like the Royal Society in the UK in many
ways even though it was founded much later
D) is the most important international
association that engages in media relations
E) serves a remarkable function in the
advancement of international research
25. According to the passage, scientific
associations ----.
A) were initially founded for the quick circulation
of innovative interdisciplinary research
B) are a sign of the successful establishment of
a scientific subdiscipline
C) are criticised by scientists unless they
support international and interdisciplinary
research
D) should commit themselves to research to
encourage more Nobel prize winners
E) give priority to fund-raising and receiving
support through media relations

The term 'postmodernism' is often applied to the
literature and art produced in the aftermath of World
War II. It was a time when the effects World War I
were greatly worsened by the experience of Nazi
totalitarianism, the threat of total destruction by the
atomic bomb, the progressive devastation of nature,
and the obvious threat of over-population.
Postmodernism involves not only a continuation of
the counter-traditional experiments of modernism, but
also diverse attempts to break away from modernist
forms. Many works of postmodern literature –by
Jorge Luis Borges, Samuel Beckett, Vladimir
Nabokov, and many others– include such various
genres and styles that they cannot be classified
easily according to traditional literary norms. This is
also true for other art forms such as pop art, and
certain types of music.

totalitarianism

E) was mainly interested in visual arts rather
than literature
24. According to the text, postmodernism can
be considered to be ----.
A) both a continuation of and a break from
modernism and its forms
B) a harsh criticism towards both pop art and
musical composition
C) a blind continuation of modernism and its
literary forms
D) a form of experimentation observed in
contemporary cinema
E) an attack against literature and art as well as
modernism itself
25. According to the text, many postmodern
works of literature are ----.
A) classified as 'pop culture' by ordinary people
B) said to defy the conventional models of
'mass culture'
C) not easily classified as postmodern literature
and art
D) against being defined only as postmodernist
art
E) hard to classify according to conventional
literary norms

Images on coins are not chosen randomly. They
function as emblems of the country that mints them.
The Greek word “Europe” is the name of a mythical
figure, and also defines the geographical and political
entity Europe. The double meaning is not
coincidental. The fortunes of the mythical figure and
the region have been intimately connected from
antiquity, though the precise nature of their
relationship was complex and contested. The coin
suggests a clever play on the word ‘Europa’. It uses
the mythical “Europa” to symbolize modern Europe.
In doing so, it makes a powerful statement about
national (and international) identities and about
modern Europe´s cultural origins. The Euro was
introduced in 2002 to mark a new world order: the
creation of a new Europe or the European Union. At
this moment of great change, the coin provides the
reassurance of continuity; new Europe is also old
Europe, with a long and venerable tradition that goes
back to ancient Greece. Thus, the repetition of the
symbol promotes the European Union.

Iconic individuals such as Steve Jobs, Martha
Stewart and many others have inspired
entrepreneurs and professionals to sharpen their
creative skills. Individuals and companies have
typically used creativity workshops, brainstorming
sessions, training videos and even hypnosis as
vehicles for such improvement. Whether such
practices influence the likelihood of such creative
leaps is unknown. Nonetheless, psychologists have
made some important discoveries that can help us
understand the states of mind that benefit creative
thought. When people consider creativity, they
generally think of the birth of ideas different from
anything known before. Idea generation is indeed the
first important stage of the creative process. To
generate new ideas for achieving a goal, you need an
open mind, that is, one guided by minimal rules.
Experts have proven that creative inspiration might
benefit from a state of lower cognitive control, that is,
fewer restrictions on your thoughts.

The advertising techniques and methods used today
were for the most part devised in Britain, Europe and
America, and as a new technique evolved in one
country it was quickly taken up elsewhere. The
practice continues on a worldwide scale. The
simplification of the words and illustrations in
advertisements has come about as the result of the
skill of copywriters, artists and photographers
combined with the findings of advertising research
workers. Advertisers have found it is often more
effective to concentrate on putting across one aspect
of their product than to go into lengthy descriptions.
They have seized on the truth of the saying that a
picture can be worth a thousand words. Some critics
of advertising have argued that an advertiser should
be content to furnish the public with information about
his product and draw the line at persuasion, but in
practice the dividing line between informing and
persuading is impossible to draw. Persuasion starts
at the point where information is first supplied,
particularly when, as must happen for reasons of
space and time, the information given is selective.
23. As it is pointed out in the passage,
advertising in this age ----.
A) has not grown rapidly more effective in spite
of the increased enthusiasm and skill of
copywriters and artists
B) has tended to give more and more detailed
information
C) tends to concentrate on the arts of
persuasion
D) seems to have forgotten how effective an
illustration can be
E) has grown more selective and simpler
24. According to the passage, as new
techniques in advertising evolve in one part
of the world ----.
A) other parts of the world feel under pressure
to come up with something new
B) they rapidly spread to another
C) the competition for markets is intensified
D) and are copied in another, local differences
disappear
E) copywriters start to look for fresh inspiration
elsewhere

that advertising is generally regarded as
serving the dual functions of informing and
persuading, ----.

A) though the information supplied is not always

reliable
B) persuasion, however, is by far the more
important
C) however, these two functions are actually
inseparable
D) but the amount of information offered is
restricted by lack of space

56. The creation of revolutionary products or
practices has no timetable. Great minds give
birth to innovations as inspiration hits,
necessity requires, or happenstance would
have it. ---- The Renaissance, for instance,
was a period of great intellectual exploration,
an era of innovation in arts, philosophy,
medicine, engineering, and science.
Inventions of the Renaissance include the
printing press and movable type. It was also
at this time that Leonardo da Vinci (1452–
1519) drew the first plans for a flying
machine, a precursor to planes and jets that
would be devised and developed centuries
later.
A) Human progress is now taking place at an
unprecedented pace.
B) Nevertheless, the history of the human race
can conceivably be called the story of
innovation.

evidence at law trials today have been
limited to criminal cases involving multiple

C) The rest of the society can rightly be
sceptical of neuroscience, of which they have
scant knowledge.
D) As neuroscience matures, however, judges
may allow such scans relevant to arguments
about a defendant’s mental state.
E) It is highly unlikely that someday brain scans
and other types of neurological evidence
could transform judicial views of personal
credibility and responsibility.

58. There are more than 600 ethnic or tribal
groups in Africa, and only 53 countries.
Many of today’s national boundaries were

population.

the sights and sounds in a tropical rainforest
– the richest plant and animal habitat in the
world. Rainforests are found near the
Equator where it is wet and warm enough for
plants to grow all year round. Most rainforest
trees are evergreen, and they produce food
and shelter for a vast number of animals. ----
Every year, huge areas are cut down for
timber and to make way for pastures and
crops.
A) Yet, the negative effect of global warming on
this rich fauna can be seen.
B) Therefore, people should try hard to protect
the variety of species living in rainforests.
C) In other words, the tropical rainforest is home
to various plants and animals.
D) However, despite this richness, rainforests
have recently been shrinking.
E) Some trees, on the other hand, are used to
provide shelter for human beings.

It was a road that kicked off the pattern of destruction
in the Amazon forest. During the 1970s, Brazil began
building the Trans-Amazonian Highway from near the
country’s easternmost point to its western border,
where the state of Amazonas meets Peru. The route
opened up the heart of the Amazon to settlement,
causing deforestation rates to increase. During the
1990s and early 2000s, more than 25,000 square
kilometres of rainforest per year were cleared out.
Throughout these years, roads have provided the
means to penetrate the forest and eliminate large
chunks of it. In an unpublished study of the Brazilian
Amazon, researcher Christopher Barber found that
95% of deforestation in the region occurs within 7
kilometres of a road. Once construction begins, road
crews are quickly followed by land speculators,
loggers, farmers, ranchers, gold miners and others
who carve away the forest along the route. This
creates great treeless expanses in the landscape, but
research is now showing that the building of roads
also triggers environmental changes in the remaining
forest that can dry out trees, set the stage for
wildfires, and weaken the ecosystem.
72. Which of the following can be said about the
Amazon forest?
A) The state of Brazil had to build roads through
it for the people who were settled in the
forest.
B) Although it damaged the forest, the new
highway enabled the people of Amazonas to
better travel to Peru.
C) From the 1990s onwards, 25,000 square
kilometres were being cut down every year to
make way for the new highway.
D) The rainforest has been suffering from a
pattern of destruction in a scale it had not
experienced before the 1970s.
E) Deforestation has not only affected Brazil’s
eastern and western borders, but it has also
started to spread through other countries.
39
73. Which of the following best describes the
relationship between road construction and
deforestation?
A) Since the road crews work with a lot of
parties to carve away the forest,
deforestation along the route is not affected
at all.
B) According to research on the Brazilian
Amazon, a very large percentage of
deforestation is a direct consequence of
building the Trans-Amazonian Highway.
C) The highway and its branching roads were
built to provide the necessary means of
penetrating the forest to erase the traces of
deforestation.
D) Contrary to previous beliefs, research is now
showing that road crews also set fires and
dry out the trees during construction work.
E) Although trees were cut down for the
highway resulting in treeless landscapes, this
was limited to an area of within 7 kilometres
of a road.
74. One can conclude from the passage that the
author mainly ----.
A) wants to warn the Brazillian state against the
future consequences of their project of
Trans-Amazonian Highway
B) tries to point that the environmental effects of
building roads are confused with the ones
caused by humans
C) informs the reader on the effects building a
road through the forest has on the local
ecosystem
D) criticises people contributing to the
deforestation process with their work
E) underlines the reasons why the Brazilian
Amazon suffers more than the other parts of

and measured the ruins of classical buildings with
scientific care had published their findings in
textbooks to provide builders and craftsmen with
patterns. The most famous of these books was
written by Andrea Palladio. This book of Palladio's

English is the science language in the world. Nearly

all important scientific journals publish studies in
English, but there is also research from different
countries in various languages. Almost a third of new
scientific reports are published in languages other
than English. One can bear in mind that the
international community can miss important science,
and language prevents new findings reach
practitioners in the field. If science is published only
in one language, the transfer of knowledge across
the world will be more difficult. Researchers ask
scientific journals to publish basic summaries of a
study's findings in various languages, and universities
to translate them in their own languages. We
recognize the importance of a common language,
and the contribution of English to science; however,
the scientific community should not think that all
valuable information is published in English.

78. According to the text, using one single

language for sciences ----.

A) may prevent the spread of knowledge across

the world
B) has made knowledge more accessible for
everyone
C) has made it possible for people to
understand science easily
D) has made English an international language
for researchers
E) prevents most scientists from working in
empirical studies

A) are published in a language other than

English
B) should be translated into English for a
scientific value
C) are not referred to because they are not in
English
D) are available in English for scientists across
the world
E) are not published in English due to lack of
scientific interest

80. According to the scientists, ----.

A) some languages are significant if we want
local perspectives to become widespread
B) science cannot develop up to a desired level
as there is not a common language for it
C) English is not proper as a science language,
so a common language is needed
D) many people can reach science since the

56. Around 1550, the Renaissance in Italy began
to decline. The causes of this decline were
varied. ---- The French King Charles VIII

have borders, other countries, like
Switzerland, are surrounded by them.

Risk is inherent in all business activity. Start-ups, for
example, face the risk of too few customers, and
therefore insufficient revenue to cover costs. There is
also the risk that a competitor will copy the
company's idea, and perhaps offer a better
alternative. When a company has borrowed money
from a bank, there is a risk that interest rates will rise,
and repayments will become too burdensome to
afford. Start-ups that rely on overseas trade are also
exposed to exchange-rate risk. Moreover, new
businesses in particular may be exposed to the risk
of operating in only one market. Whereas large
companies often diversify their operations to spread
risk, the success of small companies is often linked to
the success of one idea (the original genesis for the
start-up) or one geographic region, such as the local
area. A decline in that market or area can lead to
failure. It is essential that new businesses are mindful
of market changes, and position themselves to adapt
to those changes. At its heart, risk is a strategic
issue. Business owners must carefully weigh the
operational risk of a start-up, or the risks of a new
product or project, against potential profits or losses
— in other words, the strategic consequences of
action vs. inaction. Risk must be quantified and
managed, and it poses a constant strategic
challenge. Fortune favours the brave, but with
people's lives and the success of the business at
stake, caution cannot simply be thrown to the wind.
69. Which of the following is not mentioned as a
risk in business activity?
A) Not having enough customers to meet the
costs of operating your business
B) A competitor offering a better version of your
product
C) Not being able to get a bank loan to cover
your start-up costs
D) Exchange-rate risk in overseas trade
E) Challenge of loan repayment if interest rates
increase
70. According to the passage, the success of
small businesses is often associated with ---

A) diversification of risk
B) a specific idea or location
C) operating in several markets
D) their position relative to inherent risks

when the European court ruled that the difference of
treatment of nationals from other EU countries was

Roses are the oldest source of perfume. Ancient
documents mention rose oil, which is the strongest
form of this scent, and in The Iliad Homer relates how
Aphrodite rubbed Hector’s dead body with rose oil.
What was meant by rose oil in these texts was not
what we mean by this term today, since we learn from
Hippocrates that it was obtained by stirring rose
petals into hot olive oil. The method of extracting
essential oil of roses was not discovered until much
later. The most delightful story told of the discovery of
the essential oil relates to the Emperor Jihangir
(1569-1627) who is said to have had distilled
rosewater poured into channels in the extensive
garden of his palace so that the air was filled with this
beautiful scent.
75. We learn from the passage that rose oil ----.
A) as we know it today is the same as that
mentioned in early texts
B) was, according to Hippocrates, made by
mixing rose petals into hot olive oil
C) cannot be extracted with the use of olive oil

People tend to view food in extremes: they are either
obsessed about eating healthy food and feel good, or
eat rich food and feel guilty. In fact, delicious food can
also be healthy food, and people can arrive at a
happy balance between the two. Eating in balance
means not feeling deprived, so if we really want a few
French fries with our meal, so be it. The key is not
making a big deal out of it or rigidly tracking calories.
Of course, it is important to be aware of what we are
eating, but when we start to eat by numbers, we lose
something incredibly valuable, which is enjoyment
and pleasure. Learning about nutrition helps
transform one’s relationship with food in a healthy
way. Another point to remember is setting realistic
goals instead of deciding, for instance, never to eat
bread again. Being overly ambitious backfires, which
can be very painful because you feel you have failed.
78. The writer tells us that we ----.
A) should feel guilty if we eat a lot
B) eat balanced food if we are balanced people
C) are free to consume rich food, since it is
generally healthy
D) should aim only at enjoyment and pleasure in
our nutrition
E) needn’t deprive ourselves of French fries
forever
79. The passage provides us with two
suggestions:----.
A) to eat rich food and feel good
B) to realize the value of food and not eat by
numbers
C) to eat healthy food only and not lose
enjoyment
D) to learn about nutrition and set realistic goals
E) to be ambitious and not allow failure
80. The purpose of the writer is to ----.
A) inform us about how to achieve healthy
nutrition
B) warn us about the dangers of rich food
C) criticize us for our unhealthy eating habits
D) change our attitude to our relationships
E) encourage us to change our diets completely

the nature of costume and culture that are key
to our understanding of Western fashion. (II) Up
until the fifteenth century, the clothing customs
in the West had been determined by tradition,
the availability of certain kinds of fabric and the
skill of the tailor. (III) Several important trends
came together in the late fifteenth century to
mark a real change in costume styles across
Europe. (IV) For example, the long wool
garments worn by Europeans in the sixth
century were not that different from those worn
in the fourteenth century. (V) During the fifteenth
century, however, the nature of European
costume began to emphasise fashion –women
preferred to wear gowns that fit closely across

negative information is weighed more heavily.
(III) That is, a negative trait affects an
impression more than a positive trait, everything
else being equal. (IV) For example, in one study,
students rated 97 percent of their professors in

When George Orwell was asked by a journalist about
his career as a writer, he gave the following account
of himself: “From a very early age, perhaps the age
of five or six, I knew that when I grew up I should be
a writer. Between the ages of about seventeen and
twenty-four I tried to give up this idea, but I knew that
sooner or later I should have to settle down and write
books. I was the middle child of three, but there was
a gap of five years on either side, and I barely saw
my father before I was eight. For this and other
reasons I was somewhat lonely, and I soon
developed disagreeable habits which made me
unpopular throughout my schooldays. I had the lonely
child’s habit of making up stories and holding
conversations with imaginary persons; ambitions
were mixed up with the feeling of being isolated and
undervalued. ”

The last decade has seen notable changes in
disability policy in Europe. Changed assumptions
about the concept of disability have been reflected in
the adoption of new national and pan-European
legislation. As a consequence, the policy which has
sought to separate and segregate people with
disabilities in 'special schools', labour markets,
residential accommodation and transport has, to
some degree, and in some countries, been
reconsidered. Attempts have been made to develop
an integrated approach, opening up jobs, services
and housing to all people irrespective of their ability
or disability. A key element of this new approach has
been the recognition that segregation and exclusion
is not a necessary consequence of a physical or
intellectual impairment, but the result of conscious
policy choices based on false assumptions about the
abilities of the people with disabilities. The new
approach recognizes the role which discrimination
plays in disadvantaging people with disabilities and,
conversely, how legislation seeks to combat elements
of disability discrimination and creates equality of
opportunity for people with disabilities.
72. We understand from the passage that the
new approach to disability ----.
A) maintains the segregational policies common
everywhere in Europe
B) opposes the segregation of the disabled from
society
C) equates physical or intellectual impairment
with inferiority
D) has not sought a legal basis for its activities
E) aims to provide a therapeutic environment for
the disabled by placing them in special
institutions
73. According to the passage, people with
disabilities ----.
A) have failed to appreciate the special care
services made available to them
B) have always been provided with
opportunities to make a good living
C) have long been prevented from enjoying the
same rights as the other members of society
D) would never manage to lead a comfortable
life
E) have for centuries been regarded, throughout
Europe, as a burden to society

74. As the passage indicates, it is now clear that
----.
A) there is a wide gap between the public and
legal views on disability
B) the disabled everywhere in Europe have
been granted extra rights and privileges
C) the disability groups are demanding even
more rights
D) the understanding of disability in Europe has
undergone considerable change
E) Europeans have recently adopted a rather
prejudiced attitude towards the rights of
people with disabilities

In 1911, the Mona Lisa painting in the Louvre
Museum came to global stardom when she became
the victim of one the most recognised art thefts in
history. For two years the whereabouts of the painting
by the great Italian artist Leonardo da Vinci remained
a mystery. Then in November 1913, the thief named
Vincenzo Peruggia contacted an art dealer in Italy
and offered to bring him the painting for a reward of
500,000 lire. Peruggia had moved to Paris in 1908
and had worked at the Louvre for some time.
Dressed in a white smock worn by Louvre
employees, he had hidden inside the gallery until it
closed for the night. He then removed the painting
from its frame and strolled out with it hidden under his
smock when the museum opened as usual the
following morning. The theft was genius in its
simplicity – Peruggia, in his work clothes, had
attracted no notice and had been out of the area by
the time the theft was realised. He was arrested, but
unfortunately served only eight months in prison
thanks to a psychiatrist who testified that he was
‘intellectually deficient’.
75. The underlined word ‘stardom’ in the
passage is closest in meaning to ----.
A) change
B) fame
C) doubt
D) perception
E) search
76. Peruggia did not attract any attention as the
thief of the Mona Lisa painting because ----.
A) no one had any information about where the
painting was for two years after the great
theft
B) he had already moved to Paris in 1908 and
started to look for a job
C) he charged an art dealer 500,000 lire for the
sale of the painting
D) authorities did not believe that he could be
the thief because he was intellectually
deficient
E) he was wearing his work clothes when he
took the painting out of the museum
77. What is the author’s attitude towards
Peruggia’s eight-month prison sentence?
A) Suspicious
B) Sarcastic

fluctuating one, but it probably reached its peak in the
1650s and 1660s. For most of those who emigrated,
the search for employment and a better life was
almost certainly the principal cause of their departure.
For a clear minority, however, freedom from religious
persecution took precedence. Moreover, an
increasing number were forcibly transported as a
punishment for criminal acts. In addition to these
transatlantic emigrants, an unknown number
emigrated to Europe and settled there. The largest
group were probably the sons of Catholic families
making for religious houses in France and elsewhere.
There were also some adventurers who were willing
to fight in any cause if the pay were good.

54. "Art Deco" is the name given by modern
collectors to the decorative style of the
1920s and 1930s. ---- The style of Art Deco is
not austere but gay, elegant and even
frivolous. It is related superficially to
Cubism, using squares, circles and triangles
in interesting combinations for ornament.
A) The main stream of art in the eighteenth
century had been orderly and polished.
B) In recent decades some critics have argued
that art, science and technology should
cooperate to improve the environment of
cities.
C) On the other hand, impressionism ultimately
led to the anti-naturalist movement of Post-
Impressionism.
D) Cubism, for example, with its attention to
form, is classical, whereas Surrealism, with
its attention to content, is romantic.
E) The term is derived from the long official
name of the Paris Exhibition of 1925, which
concentrated on the decorative arts.
55. Efforts to identify a single personality profile
of the “helpful person” have not been very
successful. Rather, it appears that particular
personality traits and abilities dispose
people to help in specific types of situations.
For instance, a study revealed that adults
with a high need for approval were more
likely to donate money to charity than those
individuals who were low in need for social
approval, but only when other people were
watching them. ----
A) In contrast, empathy means feelings of
sympathy and caring for others, in particular,
sharing vicariously or indirectly in the
suffering of others.
B) As expected, the people in the high-empathy
condition experienced significantly greater
empathy, as reflected in self-ratings of
sympathetic and compassionate feelings.
C) Presumably, this shows that people high in a
need for approval are motivated by a desire
to win praise from others and so act in a
helpful manner only when their good deeds
are likely to be noticed.
D) Further insights into personality and
helpfulness come from studies of individuals
who regularly donate their services for the
sake of being more helpful.
E) Finally, women are more likely than men to
be the primary caregivers for the family, thus
making them appear to be more helpful and
empathetic.

56. A new industry model began to emerge in
the 1980s. Lower transport costs were one of
the catalysts. ---- Cheaper communications
allowed firms to manage supply chains over
even greater distances. Companies
discovered they could build plants in cheap
locations, ship components there to be
assembled and export the finished product
around the world.
A) Yet, more important was a new revolution in
information and communications technology.
B) A single large plant could produce goods at a
lower unit cost than lots of smaller factories.
C) They entered global markets with inferior but
cheap products, then slowly improved their
technological competence.
D) As the industrial revolution progressed,
steamships and railways reduced transport
cost.
E) Regional trade agreements are partly
responsible, but time costs may be more
important.
57. With the increase in the number of
advertisers and advertising media over time,
it has become harder for individual
advertisers to get and keep our attention. ----
For example, a 30-second online
advertisement today may consist of a series
of 20 to 30 different images. However, a
television advertisement from the early
1960s generally consisted of exactly one
shot and would seem dull and boring to
viewers today.
A) This is why they are constantly looking for
new ways to get us to buy their products and
services.
B) Moreover, large advertisers typically have
employees who supervise the marketing
functions of the firm.
C) Similarly, all online agencies are supposed to
hire professionals to compete with others.
D) New media also provide new opportunities
for advertisers to identify different segments
of consumers.
E) However, commercial artists design the look
of advertisements and choose the type of
lettering.

58. Children’s furniture stresses the social
position of the child in relation to both the
environment and to adults. ---- The very
existence of children’s furniture promotes
the child’s position because it is the
property of the child and it also physically
occupies space – a choice that excludes
other furniture and reflects a priority,
stressing the child’s social importance. If a
child has a piece of furniture of his or her
own, this acknowledges the status and rank
of the child. The special form of children’s
furniture signals that childhood is
considered an important period.
A) Furniture made especially for children is not
a modern phenomenon but has existed
independent of the ways in which adult views
of children have changed.
B) Having an individual piece of furniture for
children indicates the child's status and the
right to status in society.
C) Children’s furniture has historically been
defined not just by scale but also by
aesthetic purposes.
D) The design of children’s furniture is
influenced by period, material, form, function,
pedagogical views, and children’s games
and status.
E) Of the children’s furniture that has survived
from earlier periods, chairs tend to show the
most variety.
59. For years environmentalists have warned
against imminent food shortages, spreading
pollution, accelerating climate change and
the early exhaustion of the world's oil and
other minerals. ---- Now, however, there are
dire predictions of water shortages in many
countries. Even some experts claim that
wars of the future will be fought over water,
not oil.
A) Certainly, dams will cause more argument
than ever, with China's Three Gorges dam
already filling up.
B) On the other hand, powerful rural farmers
can afford to pump out free groundwater or
to lobby for big dams that will yield irrigation
benefits.
C) But, until recently, they have overlooked the
most essential substance of all: water.
D) Fortunately, there are usually cheaper and
better ways of storing water, delivering
irrigation and protecting against floods.
E) In fact, rich households have access to piped
water from municipal utilities, whereas the
poor have to pay door to-door water vendor.

Japan is likely to continue this practice. Japanese

1595 BCE. However, the series of succession
disputes that followed reduced their dominions. From
the 14th century BCE on, strong Hittite kings
regained previously lost territories, expanded into
western Anatolia, and destroyed the Mitanni Empire
in Syria, thus bringing them into direct territorial
competition with the Egyptians. After the inconclusive
Battle of Qadesh around 1274 BCE, Egypt accepted
Hittite control over Syria. Widespread human and
natural troubles in the eastern Mediterranean around
1200 BCE destroyed the Hittite Empire, but a number
of small Neo-Hittite kingdoms sprang up in southern
Anatolia and Syria, prospering until the Assyrians
conquered them in 700 BCE. Barbarian raiders ever
present to their north and a tradition of armed conflict
made the Hittites invest heavily in defence. Massive
and complex city fortifications included towers, huge
stone gateways with difficult approaches, and long
tunnels under the walls to secret exits. Often a citadel
and inner defensive walls protected the palace and
other key buildings.

Egyptians started as a result of ----.
A) the unification of Anatolian city-states against

spontaneous than evidence-based. In the past
decade, we have heard that they will rewire our
brains, strip us of cognitive abilities and damage our
mental health. In truth, there is no good evidence that
such alarming conditions are caused by our tech
habits. The world Health Organisation, for example,
recommends limiting screen time as a way of tackling
obesity, voicing no health concerns related to screens
in particular. It says that children under 3 should have
no screen time and those aged 3 to 4 should be
limited to an hour a day, but its focus is on curbing
childhood obesity. As the fears grow and the debate
becomes more heated, it is time to separate the
proven health advice from exaggerated facts. Rather
than impose unreasonable limits, we should take a
look at our use of screens and ask how they fit with
the activities and lifestyles we want as individuals and
families.

The greatest feat of civil engineering since Roman

times was the French achievement between 1666
and 1681 of the Langue doc canal to link the
Mediterranean Sea with the Atlantic Ocean. It was
conceived of by King Francis I and discussed by him
with Leonardo da Vinci. It was first surveyed in 1539.
As a result of the civil and religious disorders in
France, however, nothing happened until 1661 when
Pierre Riquet worked out a scheme for supplying
enough water to the summit of the canal. Jean
Colbert secured the interest of the young King Louis
XIV, and in 1666 the work started. The whole canal
was 150 miles long with 102 locks, a tunnel, and 3
aqueducts. It evoked world admiration, and was the
prototype of all future European grand canal design
seven though its usefulness to France was quickly
nullified by the rapidly increasing size of ocean-going
ships.

75. It can be understood from the passage that --

--.
A) the construction of the canal was first started
by Leonardo da Vinci
B) the Languedoc canal was, for more than a
century, no more than a project
C) the earliest proposal for the Languedoc canal
dates back to at least Roman times
D) King Francis I was opposed to Leonardo da
Vinci’s plans for the Languedoc canal
E) by the time the canal was finished, there was
nothing very remarkable about it

76. It is clear from the passage that ----.

A) the upkeep of the canal would be expensive

B) the Languedoc canal would not make those
who build it rich
C) as ocean-going ships increased in size, the
usefulness of the Languedoc canal declined
D) the site of the Languedoc canal was ill-
chosen
E) many supported the building of the canal as
there was such a great need for it

77. According to the passage, once the

Languedoc canal was finished ----.
A) the scope of civil engineering was re-
assessed
B) better systems of construction were put
forward
C) problems connected with the locks began to
emerge
D) plans to build canals in other parts of the

experience in retirement has never been like
mainstream white America. 'Typically', they say, 'we
work until we die'. Researchers have often attributed
the savings gap for African-Americans to lower
wages or to a lower comfort level with the stock
market. Those factors do play a part, but even
educated professional blacks earning six figure
incomes tend to ignore their retirement and follow a
wasteful way of life. Economists say the behaviour

optimisation, and adaptability into a system
capable of answering these two fundamental
questions: "What is likely to happen in the
future?" and "What is the best decision right

60. (I) There is controversy in current linguistics
over formal difference between Old English
poetry and modern English. (II) The history of
Old English poetry is rather different from that of
Old English prose, and also much more difficult
to fully perceive. (III) The major reason for this is
that the vast majority of Old English poetry is to
be found in only four manuscripts, all complied
in the late 10th to early 11th century. (IV) These
manuscripts are: the Vercelli Book, the Exeter
Book, the Beowulf Manuscript and the Junius or
Caedmon Manuscript. (V) There is very little
doubt that these manuscripts were, by and
large, complications of poetry written at different
times during the Old English period.

a very popular form of entertainment. (II) In
many ways it was different from the theatre of
our time. (III) Shakespeare, who was the leading
dramatist of the time, is still regarded as one of
the world’s greatest. (IV) For one thing, the
theatre had no roof, and plays were acted with
no setting. (V) Performances were given in the
afternoons, and had to be cancelled if the
weather was bad.

latest Harry Potter book has had an unexpected
effect on young fans. (III) Some paediatricians

children reading Harry Potter and the Order of
the Phoenix. (IV) They attributed this problem to
the 8-hour reading sessions the young
enthusiasts put in as they worked their way
through the 870-page volume. (V) Fortunately,
the problem clears up of its own accord a day or
two after the reader finishes the book.

64. (I) Groups perform many tasks, of which making
decisions is one of the most important. (II) The
course of our lives is largely determined by
decisions made by groups: for example,
selection committees, juries, parliaments and
groups of friends. (III) In addition, many of us
spend a significant portion of our working lives
making decisions in groups. (IV) Therefore,
social psychologists have long been interested
in the social processes involved in group

decision-making is the ability to recall
information.

The emergence of new processes for
producing goods and services that provide better
quality at lower cost them. Mass production has
transformed the nature of work. This is a fundamental
change in economic life. People perform a much
more central role in the new production system.
There is now more democracy in the workplace. A
reduction of business hierarchies, the creation of
production teams, more worker participation in

We all know that there are beautiful buildings and

scarcely any building in the world which was not built
for a particular purpose. Those who use these
buildings as places of worship or entertainment, or as

Whenever photographer Gabriele Galimberti meets
people on his travels, he asks the same question:
"Can I see that's in your medicine cabinet?" Some
are shy; others proud to do so. He asks this
questions to reveal who the people are. "The
medicines they use tell us about their desires, their
wants, their diseases. It is very intimate," says
Galimberti. What can our medicines say about us?
For one, how affluent we are. Cabinets in developed
countries tend to overflow with pharmaceuticals.
People in less developed countries collect
medications more slowly. People take pills to be
physically stronger and thus more vigorous, to sleep
more (or sometimes less), to age more slowly, or for
other reasons. View the different cabinets' contents,
and cultures start to take shape. In Paris and New
York, Galimberti saw large numbers of
antidepressants and antianxiety pill. Indians people
tended to choose medicines with Indian labels,
independent of quality or potency. African cabinets
had drugs from China, often unlabelled. Yet all the
people photographed had something in common:
None of them were sick.

him their medicine cabinets?
A) To examine diseases common across
different nations

conditions

The Zapotec are a group of American Indians who
live in the state of Oaxaca in southern Mexico. The
Zapotec have lived in what is now known as Oaxaca
since about 1500 BCE. In around 500 BCE, they built
their capital city known as Monte Alban. This city had
flat, step-style pyramids, temples, and very elaborate
and ornate tombs. Like the Zapotec people of today,
the early Zapotec people were farmers. They also
made fine pottery. In addition to this, they carved
writing onto slabs of stone. This was one of the
earliest forms of writing in the Americas. Zapotec
lands once stretched from what is now Puebla – the
state north of Oaxaca – to the Pacific Ocean. But
after around 500 AD, Monte Alban started to fall into
ruin, and a people called the Mixtec took over the
city. The Zapotec started to form a number of small
kingdoms, but these were conquered by the Spanish
when they took over the region in the 1500s.

today?
A) They still carve their writing onto slabs of
stone.

Puebla and Oaxaca looking for fertile land for
farming

studies has recently increased substantially

higher birth-rates than urban societies; their
populations have also tended to be younger. (II)
Marked by a high regard for traditional values,
farming communities were often regulated by
kinship customs and ritual. (III) These were
related: it was to a farmer's advantage to have
many children who could work in the fields and
then would support their parents as they grew
older. (IV) Generally, however, as the children
became older, there was not enough land for all
of them to support their own families, and some
would migrate to the cities. (V) In this way, cities
have absorbed the excess population of the

deteriorates. (IV) The writer should always try
for something that has never been done or that
others have tried to do and failed. (V) This is

As Orson Welles said: “to practise his art, a poet
needs a pen, and a painter a brush. But a film-maker
needs an army of actors, actresses and support
staff”. Orson Welles learned the hard way that all this
costs a fortune. Few film directors are rich enough to
finance their own films, and even fewer have the
desire to take such a risk. Therefore, directors are
dependent on film studios for the financing of their
films. This has caused a certain tension between
directors and film studios because film studios use
their money to try to control the films they finance. If a
film, while it is being made, starts to become too
expensive, the studio has to make a choice: it must
either cancel the making of the film and lose all the
money already invested in it, or go on investing
heavily and hope the film will really be a great
success.
66. It is suggested in the passage that film-
making ----.
A) involves a series of problems, one of which is
the casting of actors and actresses
B) is extremely expensive when compared with
other forms of art
C) is a business which depends more on
finance than on talent
D) is an industry which is almost always
financially successful
E) aims at making a good profit rather than
giving entertainment
67. According to the passage, film studios and
directors often disagree ----.
A) over the choice and number of actors,
actresses and support-staff for each film
B) over whether a film is likely to succeed and
make a profit
C) since each is always dependent upon the
other for success
D) because a studio won’t always allow a
director to do what he wants to do
E) even though there is no financial problem
facing them

68. It is pointed out in the passage that, so long
as there is a chance for a film to be truly

films themselves
C) other studios will gladly pour in more money
in the hope of making very high profits

When you stay as a guest in someone‘s house, you

give up your anonymity. This becomes quite a
challenge if you are the kind of person who cherishes
independence. However, when you and your host are
on the same wavelength, you can have a trip more
special than money can buy. Some years ago when I
went to Auckland, New Zealand, for the first time, my
hosts were a couple, about my age, whom I had met
while travelling in Europe. They had a full programme
lined up for me. They drove me around and showed
me their favourite hot springs and also the beach
where a popular TV series had once been filmed. At
mealtimes, they introduced me to their favourite
restaurants, where I sampled cheeses from south
New Zealand that don‘t get exported, and fruits
grown locally. Normally such a tight schedule would
make me nervous, but I found myself happily
relinquishing control to my hosts, who truly
understood the pleasures of their native country and
enjoyed sharing them. I couldn‘t have encountered
this New Zealand on my own.

narrator ----.
A) was a person who shamelessly exploited the
couple‘s hospitality

of his sightseeing in and around Auckland

Genealogical tourism has been historically
undervalued, but it is now becoming recognized as a
valuable tool for destination promotion. Genealogical
tourists want to travel to the country of their
ancestors' origins and to learn more about their family
history or the contextual and cultural heritage of the
family. In addition to the places and sites where
people used to live and work, visits to graveyards and
churches to see memorials and burial sites, as well
as to inspect historic records are becoming
increasingly popular. Although a worldwide
phenomenon, genealogical tourism is most common
among communities removed from their homelands
or where there has at some time been mass
emigration, e.g., from England to Australia, and from
Ireland to England and the USA. Evidence suggests
that it is a growing sub-sector of tourism, as a result
of the increasing sociological awareness of the post-
industrial society that we currently live in.
75. It is clear from the text that ----.
A) genealogical tourism did not receive the
attention it deserved in the past
B) museums and art galleries are the main
attractions for genealogical tourists
C) genealogical tourists consult historians to
choose their destinations
D) genealogical tourism is becoming more
popular in England than in the USA
E) governments have made enormous
investments in genealogical tourism in recent
years
76. According to the text, genealogical tourism
especially attracts those ----.
A) who are interested in the cultural heritage of
various countries
B) who would like to visit new countries and get
to know different cultures
C) who can spare the time and money to visit
countries with intriguing histories
D) whose families come from small countries
with diverse cultural traditions
E) whose ancestors had to leave their home
country for certain reasons

members.

one’s family.

Consumers purchase products and services to
experience certain emotional states or achieve
emotional goals in a process called emotional
arousal. Emotions can create a feeling of pleasure or
satisfaction, but they can also give the consumer the
perception that their purchase will help them avoid a
feeling of displeasure. No matter what the purchase
is, consumers must somehow associate a positive
emotional connection between a product and
themselves. Positive emotions can include the
fulfillment of a desire or the feelings of safety and
protection. Consumers also have both unexpressed
and expressed emotions. It is important to
understand the difference between these emotions
because if a consumer is purchasing but is not
expressing any emotion toward a product, you may
need to ask more questions in order to reach the
customer on a deeper level. Doing so helps the
consumers feel that they are somehow linked to your
product and that it produces a favorable image of
them. This reaction evokes consumer identification
with your product and motivates them to buy – and
keep buying – your product.
78. How does buying something affect
consumers’ emotions?
A) It gives consumers a feeling of achievement.
B) It causes consumers to have damaging
thoughts.
C) It influences every decision consumers make
before purchasing.
D) It leads to a condition of discomfort and
misery.
E) It results in a feeling of regret for purchasing
too much.
79. It is important to comprehend the difference
between unexpressed and expressed
emotions because ----.
A) emotions are important in understanding why
consumers buy certain products
B) these expressions are evidence of how
consumers can reach emotional goals
C) when consumers identify themselves with a
particular product, they keep buying it
D) consumers need to get rid of any
uncomfortable and unsafe feelings
E) consumers make decisions based on
perceptions rather than reality
www.remzihoca.com
80. Which of the following could be the main
idea of this passage?
A) It is important to evaluate the emotional
needs of customers.
B) Consumers satisfy all of their needs by
purchasing products.
C) The motivational process begins with the
need for a certain product.
D) Consumers are triggered by some specific
emotions when buying a product.
E) It is unclear whether emotions truly have an
impact on consumer behaviour.

The most important idea of the nineteenth century in
Britain was that everyone had the right to personal
freedom, and this became the basis of capitalism.
This idea, which had originated with Adam Smith in
the eighteenth century, spread widely due to the
popularity of his book The Wealth of Nations. After
Adam Smith, several capitalist economists argued
that the government should not interfere in trade and
industry at all. Fewer laws, they claimed, meant more
freedom, and freedom for individuals would lead to
happiness for the greatest number of people. These
ideas were eagerly accepted by the growing middle
class. However, it soon became very clear that the
freedom of factory owners to do as they pleased had
led to slavery and misery for the poor, not to
happiness or freedom. By 1820, more and more
people had begun to accept the idea that the
government must interfere to protect the poor and the
weak. The result was a number of laws to improve
working conditions. For instance, one of the laws,
which went into effect in 1833, limited the number of
hours that women and children were allowed to work.

decades of the nineteenth century in Britain -
---.

the government’s proposals for the
improvement of life for the poor
C) most factory owners introduced a wide range
of measures to improve the working
conditions of women and children
D) the government adopted a new policy which
ultimately led to the abolition of slavery in the
country
E) the government strongly held the view that
new legislative steps had to be taken to
increase the effectiveness of capitalism in
the country

capitalist economy in Britain

had nothing to do with the development of
the capitalist economy in Britain

government policies, had been originally

economic policies in Britain in the eighteenth
century

of Minister of the Interior. To emphasize their civilian
character, they wore as uniform a dark blue high
collared swallow-tail coat and a heavy chimney-pot
hat (not to be superseded by the tunic and helmet
until about 1865), and carried no arms but only a
truncheon. Until 1885 they had no whistle, only a
rattle for summoning assistance. Their earliest
instructions were prefaced with the following words
which still appear in the forefront of their standing
orders: the primary object of an efficient police force

The Mississippi is one of the world's great continental
rivers, like the Amazon in South America, the Congo
in Africa, or the Volga in Europe. Its waters are
gathered from two-thirds of the US and, together with
the Missouri, which is its chief western branch, the
Mississippi flows some 6.400 kilometres from its
northern sources in the Rocky Mountains to the Gulf
of Mexico, which makes it one of the world's longest
waterways. The Mississippi has been called the
father of waters. Through all its lower course, it
wanders along, appearing lazy and harmless. But
people who know the river are not deceived by its
benign appearance, for they have had many bitter
struggles with its floods. They have had to learn that
nothing is to be gained by fighting against the rages
of the mighty stream. To control it, Americans have
had to accept some of the river's own terms and to
undertake the patient work of conserving and
rebuilding soil, grasslands and forests, far back
where the waters begin to gather.
66. It is clear from the passage that the sources
of the Mississippi's waters ----.
A) are so limited that the river seldom causes
flooding along its banks
B) are not as many as those of other continental
rivers in the world
C) need to be conserved to protect the river
from environmental pollution
D) are spread over a great part of the US
E) cannot be ascertained, since the Rocky
Mountains have not been explored fully

although in its lower course the Mississippi
looks quiet and harmless, ----.
A) most people believe that it may one day
overflow its banks
B) the people living along it are not aware of this
C) actually it has caused much devastation
D) people have always been indifferent to the
threats it poses

rivers have been controlled their claims. By the 1970s, many scientists had
become disappointed with the Sapir-Whorf
hypothesis, and it was all but abandoned as a new
set of theories claiming that language and thought
are universal came onto the scene. But now, decades
later, a concrete body of practical evidences showing
how languages shape thinking has finally emerged.
The evidence overturns the long-standing dogma
about universality and yields fascinating insights into
the origins of knowledge and the construction of
reality. The results have important implications for
law, politics and education.

American linguists

The essence of life, wrote Aristotle, is to serve others
and do good. Make this the basis of a New Year's
resolution and you will be doing yourself a favour too.
It turns out that people who volunteer are happier and
healthier on average than those who do not. You can
get these benefits by giving time to a cause you care
about, whether related to the arts, the environment,
politics or whatever. However, the biggest boost
comes by doing work directly focused on helping
others. It may seem counter-intuitive, but taking on
extra responsibilities can reduce stress. Consider, for
example, a study in which researchers took blood
pressure measurements from around 6,700 people
aged over 50, then simply let these people get on
with their lives for four years before taking another
measurement. What the researchers wanted to find
out was whether volunteering would make a
difference and whether more volunteering would
provide even more benefits. The results were
conclusive. Compared with non-volunteers or those
who had done less than 200 hours of voluntary work
in the preceding two years, more active volunteers
were 40 per cent less likely to have developed high
blood pressure.
72. According to Aristotle, helping other people
----.
A) cannot be limited to certain times of the year
B) could mean a number of burdensome extra
responsibilities
C) should be a person's primary goal in life
D) may not always do much good to other
people
E) makes others happier than oneself
73. It is stated in the passage that committing to
a cause one cares about such as the arts or
the environment ----.
A) can both reduce stress levels and also make
people feel less burdened with
responsibilities
B) results in improved health for a specific age
group, particularly for those who are over 50
C) is one of the most researched topics in the
literature
D) may not lead to as many positive effects as
directly helping those in need
E) might only work positively if one commits for
over 200 hours per year

more psychological than physical benefits

Eager to boost orders for his teas, New York tea
merchant Thomas Sullivan devised a new method of
distributing samples of tea to his customers. He put
them into small silk bags, making them easy to ship
and less messy for the recipient to unpack. Some
customers did not bother opening the cloth bag and
simply poured boiling water over them. Sullivan was
overwhelmed with orders for more tea packaged in
this way. Responding to suggestions that the silk
material was very thin, Sullivan used cotton instead
and began to sell the bags commercially. The patent
for the tea bag was registered by Sullivan in 1903. By
1920, tea bags were in wide use by the catering trade
in the US. Later, paper was used instead of cotton,
and a fine string and decorated tag were sometimes
added, making them more convenient for drinkers
making a single cup. The American market for tea
bags was well developed by the time they were
introduced into Britain several decades later by
Joseph Tetley and Company in 1953. It is not clear
whether this delay was a result of wartime shortages
of materials, or of initial resistance to change on the
part of the British tea-drinker. However, once they
were launched, tea bags soon became popular in
Britain, joining the ranks of the many labour-saving
products that emerged in the post-war period,
offering convenience and saving time.
75. It can be understood from the passage that
Thomas Sullivan ----.
A) stole the idea of drinking tea in small cotton
bags from his customers
B) created a new way of making tea taste better
C) used silk bags to carry tea so that it would
last longer
D) was late to apply for the patent of cotton tea
bags
E) paved the way for preparing an instant cup of
tea
76. One of the reasons why people in Britain did
not use tea bags until the middle of the 20th

58. ---- Most of the water-intensive agriculture in
the nation takes place in Punjab, a state in
the northwest that makes up 2% of the
country’s territory. But it provides more than
50% of its grain reserves. Farmers there
currently pump out 45% more groundwater
than is replaced by monsoon rains. The
problem has arisen in part because Punjabi
farmers have turned away from growing
traditional crops that are suited for semi-arid
land, such as wheat and corn, and turned
instead to more profitable, but water-
intensive, rice.
A) Punjab has the best agricultural land in India.
B) The amount of rain water in India is on the

not have to learn; they are referred to as
unconditioned reflexes. An unconditioned reflex is
always an unconscious response, and therefore it is
impossible to suppress it at will. Such a reflex always
requires a stimulus that triggers a certain behaviour.
Many unconditioned reflexes exist in order to protect
the organism, for example coughing, nausea, or the
drawback reflex of the body part that touches a hot
object. Anatomically, a reflex is based on a chain of
stimulus and reaction, which is referred to as a reflex
arc. A well-known example is the knee jerk or patellar
reflex in humans, which is triggered by a light hit to
the patellar tendon in the knee. The knee jerk reflex
is often used in medicine to test the function of the
spinal cord and associated nerves. The real purpose
of this reflex is to protect humans from injury when
tripping.

66. It is understood from the passage that

reflexes ----.
A) can cause damage to an organism if they are
not strictly controlled
B) represent series of behaviours present only

B) it is useful to suppress certain unconditioned
reflexes such as nausea

D) the purpose of some unconditioned reflexes

that interested him with his fellow Athenians and
attempting to inspire them to be virtuous and
honourable. Socrates' followers included not only
Plato, but Alcibiades and Critias as well, both of
whom later undermined the Athenian democracy.
Possibly because of such notorious connections,
Socrates was accused of impiety – showing a lack of
respect for God – and corrupting youth. Different
versions of the speech he made to defend himself
against these accusations still exist today. In his
speech, he described himself as a great benefactor
to the city, and claimed that the Athenians would
harm themselves in killing him. In spite of, or perhaps
to some extent because of, his defence, Socrates
was convicted, sentenced to death, and executed.

Socrates?
A) His initiation of moral reform earned him a
reputation in Athenian society.
B) Socrates earned his living by selling his
ideas to his fellow philosophers.
C) Socrates became a soldier because he
wanted to gain a higher social status.
D) Socrates took up stonecutting in his early
years and practised it until his execution.
E) One can learn minute details of his whole life
because he is a famous philosopher.

70. What could be said about the philosophical

tradition of Socrates?
A) His ideas fiercely competed with those of
Alcibiades and Critias.
B) His philosophical arguments were heartily
welcomed by authorities.
C) His main philosophical point of view was to

We are all involved in the oil business every time we

start our cars, turn on our lights, cook a meal or heat
our homes since we are relying on some form of fuel
to make it happen. Up to now, it has inevitably been a
fossil fuel, part of the carbon chain, and just as
inevitably, that will have to change. Long before we
decide to stop using fossil fuels, costs will have
already made the decision for us: not just the
monetary cost, but the human cost, the cultural cost
and the environmental cost. We will, quite rightly,
demand that our future energy be both sustainable
and renewable. We will expect a lot from the likes of
solar power, wind power, geothermal power and
hydrogen fuel cells, and it will take time.

energy sources from our daily lives
B) we will inevitably go on using only fossil fuels
C) hydrogen fuel cells are one source of energy
we will use in the future
D) fossil fuels are not obtained from carbon

high costs of present-day energy
consumption

When Mozambique and South Africa ended their
internal conflicts in the early 1990s, they enacted
wide scale amnesties, and in both countries the rule
of law quickly improved. In each of them, political
leaders opted to move past the violence and
injustices of the past and to focus on the tasks of
social and political reconstruction. As part of that
reconstruction, each country became a multiparty
democracy in which the accountability of leaders and
other key norms of the rule of law could finally take
root. The restoration of public security, meanwhile,
allowed the provision of basic services. And though
their criminal-justice systems remained woefully
underfunded, both were finally able to start providing
citizens with basic protections. While the legal, social
and political improvements in South Africa between
1994 and 2004 were impressive, in poorer
Mozambique, the improvement was smaller but still

Who is the greatest genius of all time? As a scientist,
I believe that we should first define what genius is to
answer that question. Traditionally, it is the ability to
be more creative and skilled that anyone else, or the
first to glimpse new shores of knowledge. The history
of science and technology is rich with great minds,
but who is the greatest? For me, it is close between
Einstein and Newton, but in Newton’ s time, there
were not many people doing science. However, at the
start of the 20th century, when Einstein was working,
there were lots of other great scientists such as Paul
Dirac, Wener Heisenberg, Niels Bohr and several
others. Even amongst them, Einstein was considered
special. Some people may say this is a lazy choice,
but I have thought long about it, and I feel it is right.
The three theories that he published in four papers
are some of the greatest ideas ever to come out of
the human mind – he proved that atoms exist with his
paper on Brownian motion, discovered the fact that
light is made up of packets of energy, and the whole
field of cosmology and most of modern astronomy
were born from Einstein’ s General Theory of
Relativity. He changed forever the way we
understand our Universe. Even now, when we talk
about the possibility of a big idea changing science,
we say “we need another Einstein”.
75. It is clear from the passage that in order to
be a genius, one needs to ----.
A) have the necessary traits that allow him or

others
B) come up with papers which can lead to
