Jimmy : Hey, Leslie. Look at this. It’s a book about
oneirology. Isn’t it interesting?
Leslie : Huh? What is that? Oneiro.. what?
Jimmy : It is the study of interpreting dreams. Some people
believe that dreams represent your subconscious
mind. Your dreams reveal your deepest desires, fears
and wishes that you might not even be aware of.
Leslie : So you are saying that your dreams can explain
your secret worries and desires?
Jimmy : Sure. It is one of the professional fields in
psychology. You know Sigmund Freud, ‘the father
of psychoanalysis’. He was the master of
interpreting dreams.
Leslie : Of course, I’ve heard of Sigmund Freud. But I know
another master of interpreting dreams.
Jimmy : Oh, yeah? Who is it? Carl Gustav Jung? Jacques
Lacan?
Leslie : Well, I have no idea who they are, but I know my
grandmother is the master of interpreting dreams.
Jimmy : Your grandmother? How is it so? Did she get a
degree in psychology?
Leslie : No, but she is really good. For instance, one day my
cousin came to visit and told us about her worst
nightmare ever. She said she had a strange
encounter with this gigantic snake. The way she
described it made everyone scream with terror, but
my grandma calmly smiled and said that my cousin
was pregnant. And what do you know! My cousin
gave birth to a healthy baby boy 9 months later.
Jimmy : That’s amazing. So you are saying your
grandmother can predict the future?
Leslie : Believe it or not, I think she can. She said she can
somewhat tell what your dream means. I had these
repeated dreams of falling down from a high
building which made me wake up screaming in fear.
My grandmother told me that the dream meant I
was growing up. And I definitely grew out of my
clothes really fast. It was unbelievable.
Jimmy : Hmm... I think I need to consult your grandmother.
I also have these repeated dreams of wetting beds.
I wonder what that means.

Nostradamus is one of the most famous dream interpreters
in history. A dream interpreter is someone who has a dream
about the future and then tells other people what the future
will be. Guessing about the future is called ‘prediction’.
Growing up in France, he allegedly predicted the plague
which was a terrible illness that killed many thousands of
people throughout Europe in the 16th century. He then
became a pharmacist - someone who gives medicine to sick
people. Thus, he gave his best efforts to stop the spread of
the Bubonic plague throughout Europe. Later, he began
publishing books about prophecies full of hundreds of
predictions. Prophecy is the prediction of future events
such as weather, the stars, and political changes.
Nostradamus published his first books in 1555, and they
have remained in print until this day. Many people believe
that he predicted such events as the ‘Great Fire of London’
and the rise of Napoleon and Hitler and the September 11th
attacks on the United States. Others believe that the
wording of his writing is not exact enough to predict these
events and that Nostradamus’ writings could be compared
to many different events in history. Either way, dream
interpreters have remained very popular and interesting to
people around the world.

Anchor : Tonight we have a story about the Illinois State
Lottery winners. Tom Gunman is here to give you a
more detailed story. Tom, what happened?
Reporter : Two people won the Illinois State Lottery last
night, but that isn’t the most unusual thing. Both
winners, Mr. George Smallwood, 45, and Mr.
Richie Black, 46, had similar dreams on the night
before they won.
Anchor : Did they dream about winning the lottery?
Reporter : Not exactly. The night before the purchase, in a
surprising coincidence, both men dreamt about
their dead fathers.
Anchor : Was the dream the same in each case?
Reporter : Mr. Smallwood described that, his dead father
repeatedly talked about a set of numbers. And the
father yelled angrily at his son for not writing
them down. Mr. Smallwood thought his father was
trying to tell him something so he bought a lottery
ticket. And, incredibly, he won.
Anchor : What about Mr. Black?
Reporter : Mr. Black said his dead father actually bought him a
lottery ticket and congratulated him with a big smile
in his dream. When Mr. Black woke up, he made a
6
smart move. He bought a lottery ticket for himself
and he hit the jack pot! So here is the lesson, folks!
“Don’t forget to listen to your parents whether dead
or alive!”
Anchor : What an amazing story! Thank you, Tom. Some
cultures believe that dreams predict the future.
Maybe it does so. Sleep tight, everyone.
A.
Answer : See the script above.
B.
Answer :
1. Two lottery winners had similar dreams the night
before they won.
2. Because Mr. Black understood the meaning of his

Questions 4~5 refer to the following passage. B.

Some people believe that you can tell a person’s future just
by looking at their palm. Everyone’s palm has unique lines
and wrinkles of different lengths. There are four main lines
on a person’s palm, and each have a different meaning. The
line down the center of the palm to the wrist is the lifeline.
A long life line means you will live a long time. Another line
across the center of the palm is the head line. A long head
line means you’re very smart. Professional palm readers are
very popular all over the world, even though many people
say they don’t believe in palm reading. Sometimes it can be
fun just to hear what the palm reader will say about your

Namju : Hey, Cooper! I have a question about the history
class we just had. I missed some parts of the lesson
reason people in the 1500s got married in June?
Cooper : According to Mr. Doodle, most people in the 1500s
got married in June because they took their yearly
bath in May.
Namju : So? What has taking a bath in May got to do with
getting married in June?
Cooper : Think about it. It’s a yearly bath. People might still
smell pretty good in June. However, since people
still started to smell, brides had to carry a bundle
of flowers to hide the bad odor. And that became
the tradition for brides carrying bouquets for the
wedding ceremony.
Namju : How about the origins of old English sayings! I
like “It’s raining cats and dogs,” the best.
Cooper : Yeah, I was laughing until there were tears in my
eyes when Mr. Doodle told the origin of that old
saying. I couldn’t believe people in old times kept
their small animals like dogs and cats on top of
thatched roofs. Those poor animals fell off the

7
 roof because the piled straw would get slippery
in heavy rain. So there goes “It’s raining cats and
dogs.” for heavy raining days.
Namju : Darn, I missed that part. I wondered why
everybody burst out laughing in the middle of the
class. Anyways, I thought the story about a wake
was interesting.
Cooper : Yeah. Wait a minute. Isn’t that something about
heavy drinking?
Namju : Well, yes, kind of. The origin of a wake came from
drinking ale or whisky in lead cups. If you drink ale
or whisky in lead cups, the combination could
sometimes make you unconscious even for a
couple of days. So in those days, before the actual
burial, people lay the unconscious person on the
kitchen table for a couple of days for observation.
Then the family would gather around and eat and
drink and wait and see if the person would wake
up. That’s how the tradition of a wake started. I
think it’s pretty barbaric.
Cooper : Yeah, tell me about it! But I guess that’s how it all
started.
what they did, or whose children they were. A man named
Tom who lived near the Town Green or park, would be called
Tom of the Green, or Tom Green. Place names such as
London, Hamilton or Sutton were also used as last names. A
man could have different family names according to the job
he had. William who was a blacksmith would be called
William Smith. If he were a baker or a fisherman his name
would be William Baker or William Fisher. Some people had
last names that originated from their father’s name. If a man
named James had a father named Anders, he might be called
James, Anders’ son, or James Anderson. In other cases,
family names would describe personality and
characteristics. For example, Short, Brown and Whitehead,
are all last names that give clues about a person’s
appearance. Another example would be Arthur; ‘Ar’,
meaning ‘man’ and ‘thor’ meaning ‘strong’ combined and
became Arthur, strong man. But not everyone began using
family names so early. In some parts of the world, people
didn’t start using family names until the 19th century.

Anchor : Fashions change every year, it seems. What is
popular today will be in the garbage cans
tomorrow, and then back as ‘retro’ two days later.
But have you ever wondered what fashions were
like in Shakespeare’s time? With a special report
from the world of fashion, here’s Russ Dortman.
Reporter : Thank you, Alice. I’m here at the Museum of Fashion
in Bristol, England. Behind me, you can see some of
the most popular fashions of the time. Ms. Mila
Trask, the curator of the museum, will help us to
understand about fashion back in time. Now, I
notice on these pictures that the women don’t have
eyebrows. Why is that?
Trask : Well, in the 1400s, a pale complexion was
popular. Women used to shave their foreheads
and eyebrows to give themselves a paler
complexion. They also used ceruse to whiten
their faces.
Reporter : What is ceruse?
Trask : Ceruse is a mixture of vinegar and lead powder.
Reporter : Lead powder? Isn’t that dangerous?
Trask : Yes it is. Ceruse actually ate the woman’s skin and
the lead poisoned them.
Reporter : Some people will do anything to be fashionable.
What are these?
Trask : Believe it or not, these are early platform shoes.
They were very popular in the 1400s. Women used
to wear them over their smaller shoes to protect
them from getting dirty.

Questions 4~5 refer to the following passage.
A recent study found that the average marrying age for
Korean women is 27.3 years. That’s older than the average
age of 2003. It seems that Korean women are waiting longer
to get married than before. There are a number of reasons for
this. Many women are choosing to focus on their education
rather than getting married early. Also, women are becoming
more independent and more interested in controlling their
own lives. They are choosing careers instead of husbands.
This trend will probably continue for many generations.

Internet Shopping Mall

The fastest growing shopping malls these days are online
shopping malls. Convenience, bargain prices and immense
information are why more and more people opt for online
shopping over physically going to built shopping centers or
stores. Many people prefer internet shopping because costs
are lower. The lower price of products is based on how online
shopping mall companies operate. For instance, an internet
shopping mall company can save rent or the labor cost since
the business is operated online. This enables online
shopping malls to provide products at cheaper prices for
online shoppers. Another reason behind the growth of online
shopping is that it saves time, which is an attractive benefit
in the hectic modern world. Online shoppers can go shopping
wherever there is a computer with Internet access and
whenever it is convenient for them, 24 hours a day 7 days a
week. Instead of spending time traveling to shopping malls,
the shoppers can browse over the many products offered
online. Online shoppers have easy access to various types of
information; such as professional reviews, a list of best
selling items, a table of price comparisons, and much more.
Up-to-date information regularly sent through emails keep
the customers up with the trends. Information and opinions
about the product shared between the shoppers also help
them to make more informed choices.

Anchor : Our next story takes us into the world of the
Internet, and a rather surprising development. On
Tuesday, Microsoft hosted a conference to
discuss flaws in their operating system. Who were
the guests? The world’s best hackers. Connie?
Reporter : That’s right, Tim. On Tuesday, Microsoft invited
over 1,000 of the best hackers in the world to test
their skills against Microsoft’s Windows Vista.
Their goal is to expose flaws in the system that
other hackers could exploit. Within minutes,
Microsoft’s engineers were upset at how quickly
the hackers could hack into the operating system.
Anchor : That sounds a little dangerous to me. Is it a good
idea to let hackers try to break into Windows?
Reporter : Well, for years, hackers have been hired by
security software manufacturing companies to
test their security features. And companies often
hire hackers to protect their systems from other
hackers.
Anchor : I guess it makes sense, but it still sounds risky to
me. What if the hackers sell their secrets to other
hackers?
Reporter : I guess it must be more profitable to work with
Microsoft instead of against it. However it’s
probably the most effective way to find the
security flaws in your system. Who else would
know better than the best hackers in the world?

since hackers were considered criminals till not

that many Americans do not budget their money. Credit

people to buy what they want regardless of the financial
condition they are in. People spend impulsively and do not
think of the consequences until they receive their bank
statements. In fact, Americans have an average of seven

Anchor : Now, we look at the world of money. Or the world of
money that matters most to kids: pocket money.
Here to tell us all about the new trends in weekly
allowance for kids, is Dana Weathers. Dana?
Reporter : Thanks, Earl. Well, most kids start getting a
monthly allowance around the age of seven. The
allowance is usually about $5, and parents usually
give all their kids the same amount of pocket
money, even if they are different ages.
Anchor : How have weekly allowances changed over the
years, Dana?
Reporter : Well, there have been increases in how much
money kids receive. The average amount for 15-
year-olds in 1993 was about $9.50, but that went
up to about $15 in 1997 and about $15.60 in 1999.
So, there has been a steady increase in pocket
money.
Anchor : Why do you think that is?
Reporter : Well, many items that teenagers spend their
money on: fast food, clothes, movies and candy,
have also increased their prices over the years.
So, teenagers try to negotiate with their parents
to get more money. I have another interesting
finding for you.
Anchor : What’s that?

allowance with their fathers, they will usually get
a higher allowance!

damaged and not insured, it cannot be purchased again in
Europe. The purchase can only be done outside of Europe.
Travelers who are 26 years of age or older are forced to buy
a first class pass which costs a lot more. Some complained
about this policy because first class doesn’t offer more
comforts for the travelers. It is only a little less crowded and
a bit quieter than other classes. And the pass is made of
paper which is not very durable. Eurailpass users usually
travel a long period of time and the thin-paper pass easily
gets damaged or destroyed. It should be handled with extra
care.

Anchor : Tonight, we’re going to look at a scandal that is
threatening the tourism industry in Europe. Or, at
least, the budget tourism industry. Dale?
Reporter : Many people enjoy taking some time off from
school or work and go backpacking around
Europe. Now that traveling between countries in
Europe is so much easier, budget tourism has
increased tremendously. Last year, over 1 million
backpackers visited Europe. But recently, many
backpackers have canceled their trips. It seems
that youth hostels have been overcharging
backpackers. Although there is a lot of
competition, instead of prices decreasing, they’ve
actually gone up.
Anchor : Do you know why that’s been happening?
Reporter : It seems that the number of tourists has been
increasing at a faster rate than the number of
hostels, so hostels feel freer to overcharge their
customers.
Anchor : Is there anything that travelers can do to protect
themselves from being overcharged?
Reporter : Well, online shopping is probably the best bet.
Check and compare prices online before you go.
Make sure to check the seasonal and group rates.
Anchor : Are there any other precautions people can take?
Reporter : Word of mouth can be very useful. Backpacker
websites and message boards around the world
are great ways to get information about
backpacking around Europe. Backpackers enjoy
helping one another out, and they can get
information that you can’t find in youth hostel
brochures or tourist guides.

Interviewer : Hello, Kelly. Nice to meet you. Could you introduce
yourself to the members of the committee?
Kelly : Yes, of course. First of all, thank you for having me
here today. My name is Kelly Miller. I am in the
10th grade at Holton Public School.
Interviewer : We would like to know the reason you’d like to
transfer to Eaton Royal Boarding School?
Kelly : One of the advantages of attending a boarding
school is the opportunity for academic
excellence. Eaton Royal Boarding School
provides the top most in educational systems for
students. It is also a great preparatory school for
prominent universities.
Interviewer : Yes, I strongly agree with you. Our school faculty
members have advanced degrees which enhance
academic achievement especially for students
who have ambitions for entering Ivy League
universities.
Kelly : I was really impressed that the school provides
various extra curricular programs. My favorite is
Polo. I am very glad to hear there is a Polo Team
here.
Interviewer : We are also glad to hear that. How about our
dormitory? Wouldn’t it be difficult for you to live in
the dorm?
Kelly : I think it will be a great experience for me. I heard
there are students from all over the world at Eaton
Royal Boarding School. Meeting new people and
learning about different cultural backgrounds will
be a big benefit for me. Actually I really look
forward to living in the dorm.
Interviewer : We hope you received enough information about
our dormitory. We have a top rated dormitory
system, but some students do have a difficult
time with some of the rules we have. Most
students find the curfew very difficult to keep. In
addition, all the dorms are supervised by very
strict housemistresses. Are you sure you will be
comfortable with that?
Kelly : A curfew? I am quite shocked to hear that. I didn’t
expect to have a curfew here. I thought I could
manage my time more freely living at a dorm. And
I definitely didn’t expect to have a housemistress.
I am not sure if I could be comfortable with those
rules.

Unlike public schools, going to boarding school isn’t an
easy decision. One will need to adjust to a new
environment and new people. Most boarding schools keep
students under strict supervision with stringent rules. Also
a higher academic demand may be exhausting. The
physical separation from one’s family and friends cause
emotional difficulty. Financial costs will also be a big part in
making the decision. The tuition is quite expensive since
the government does not fund boarding schools. The
schools charge fees ranging between $11,000 and $16,000
a year. One might want to consider if it’s worth all the
effort. However, there are several good reasons to go to
boarding school as well. First of all, they give more
attention to students. Boarding schools generally have
smaller classes, allowing more interaction between the
teachers and the students. Classroom settings are often
designed to help teachers perform their best. This helps the
teachers to achieve higher academic goals with the
students. Secondly, most of the faculty have advanced
degrees, as well as other resources, such as the library or
other facilities, that can often be superior to public schools.
Lastly, diverse extracurricular activities motivate the
students to have higher academic standards. Plenty of
options and a wide range of topics in the school program
encourage students to achieve better academic results. It is
a well-known fact that boarding school students have a
better chance to enter prominent universities.
