Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, or D on your answer sheet to choose the word
or phrase that best fits each of the numbered blanks from 26 to 30.
APPLYING TO MEDICAL SCHOOL
It could be said that there has never been a better time to apply to medical school. Applications were down
by 5% last year, and this year there will be 1,000 new places spread around the various medical schools,
in a(n) (26) _______ to ultimately expand the pool of the UK doctors. (27) _____, there is evidence that
the 5% drop is mostly made up of poorer candidates no longer applying, and competition remains high.
For all that, admissions committees should strive to make entrance to medical school fair to everyone,
and fulfill the responsibility they have to society to choose good prospective doctors.
The most significant academic difference between schools is that (28) _______, such as (famously)
Manchester and Southampton, run more ‘integrated courses”. This means that instead of spending a
couple of years in university doing your pre-clinical training, and attending lectures like a normal
undergraduate, you will be seeing patients from the very first term and (29) ______ your new-found
knowledge to real-life problems.
This system is ideal for those who know they are in medicine because they want to be doctors, and (30)
_______ want to feel they’re learning their trade rather than studying science for its own sake. In this
system, where one really picks up the knowledge and skills to deal with patients is on the wards, and in
that sense it is very much like an apprenticeship.
(Adapted from Upstream Advanced by Virginia Evans and Lynda Edwards)
Question 26. A. move B. aspect C. content D. attempt
Question 27. A. Hence B. However C. Though D. Additionally
Question 28. A. little B. each C. some D. none

Question 30. A. whom B. they C. it D. who

Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, or D on your answer sheet to indicate the
correct answer to each of the questions from 31 to 35
Last Saturday, as my grandfather drove me and my sister home from a dinner to celebrate his birthday,
he got frustrated at not being able to remember the name of the singer of a song he’d just heard on the
radio. Without a second thought, I grabbed my smartphone, searched for the song and found the name,
Bob Dylan. For me and my friends, this is a completely natural course of action, but it totally astonished
my grandfather, who didn’t understand how I had checked the information so quickly. My sister and I
laughed and explained, but afterwards, it made me think about how much I depend on technology.
The list of the ways I use technology is endless: writing, planning, socialising, communicating and
shopping, to name a few. When I reflected on its impact on my education, I saw that, for my fellow
students and I, technology has been significant in many ways.
Not only are we lucky enough to have the same educational benefits as those of previous generations,
we have so many more as well. We still have walk-in libraries available to us, and I can see why some
students choose to find and use resources in these distraction-free locations. However, the only option for
studying used to be sitting in these libraries with as many books from your reading list as you could find,
yet now a single search for your chosen study topic online can immediately provide access to a huge range
of resources.

When we compare the student life of the past and that of the present day, it is tempting to focus on the
obvious differences when it comes to technology. In actual fact, students are doing what they’ve always
done: embracing the resources available and adapting them in ways which allow them to work more
efficiently and to live more enjoyably. The pace of change in technology continuously gathers speed, so
we have to value each innovation as it happens.
(Adapted from Exam Booster by Helen Chilton, Sheila Dignen, Mark Fountain and Frances Treloar)
Question 31. What is the best title for the passage?
A. Students’ heavy reliance on technology
B. The support of technology in the education of students
C. Using technology in searching for songs

the Internet, her grandfather _________
A. was surprised at how the process was so quick
B. was confused at why the author had to use the Internet
C. was astonished at the complicated and lengthy process
D. was delighted at the outcome
Question 33. The word “those” in paragraph 3 refers to _________
A. libraries B. generation C. benefits D. students
Question 34. The word “obvious” in paragraph 4 mostly means that something which is _________

Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, or D on your answer sheet to indicate the
correct answer to each of the questions from 36 to 42
He cuts a dashing figure, this gentleman: nearly seven feet tall and possessed of a pair of striking brown
eyes. With a fondness for Ralph Lauren clothing, rap music and dining out with friends, Rex is, in many
ways, an unexceptional chap. Except that he is, in fact, a real-world bionic man. Housed within a frame
of state-of-the-art prosthetic limbs is a functioning heart-lung system, complete with artificial blood
pumping through a network of pulsating arteries. He even has a degree of artificial intelligence: talk to
him, and he’ll listen (through his cochlear implants), before using a speech generator to respond –
although, like us, he sometimes stumbles over his words.
Created by a TV company, DSP , with the help of robotics experts, the bionic man was conceived
as a response to the question: how close is bionic technology to catching up with, and even exceeding, the
capabilities of the human body? DSP got in touch with Dr Bertolt Meyer, a charismatic young Swiss
researcher, himself the user of an advanced prosthetic hand, and invited him to create a bionic man from
scratch. It’s not the sort of invitation a chap gets every day, so what made Bertolt agree to it? ‘My aim
was to demonstrate that prosthetics can, instead of conveying a sense of loss, pity and awkwardness,
convey a sense of “wow” and amazement – a positive reaction, if you will,’ he tells me.

The engineering behind modern prosthetics is certainly mind-boggling. They function by placing
electrical sensors directly in contact with the skin. These sensors pick up the signals generated by muscular
movements in the residual limb - signals that are then translated by software into natural, intuitive
movement in the prosthetic limb.We all know about prosthetic limbs, even if many of us are not aware of
just how sophisticated they now are.
In this future world, will we blur the boundaries of artificial and natural to an extent that we have to
recalibrate our definition of self and non-self? That’s especially pertinent when we consider the reality of
neural prosthetics, such as the memory chips developed by Dr Theodore Berger. Many of us are
uncomfortable with the idea of brain implants, but should we be? And will broadening our definition of
‘self’ reduce this discomfort? Bertolt is pleased with the increasing normalisation, and even ‘coolness’,
of prosthetics. But he expresses caution about the potential for elective use of such technology. It’s one
thing to use a bionic organ to replace lost function but would we ever choose to remove healthy tissue to
replace it with a stronger, better prosthetic? Elective use would, Bertolt fears, result in market forces
becoming more important than medical need. In essence, those who can afford it could build up super-
bodies, with the risk that manufacturers would then focus on fulfilling those demands, rather than on less
profitable medical need. What’s certain, though, is that artificial body parts can already restore
independence in a way never previously possible.
Rex is a real world example of how much of our bodies could soon be replaceable. As an engineering
project, he is unparalleled, and as a symbol of future humanity, he is startling.
(Adapted from On Screen by Jenny Dooley and Virginia Evans)

B. He felt it would encourage those who have lost limbs.
C. He was keen to see how people would react.
D. He wanted to change people’s perceptions.
Question 39. The word “mind-boggling” in paragraph 3 mostly means _______
A. extremely fascinating B. self-adjusting
C. difficult to understand D. unattainable

B. The idea of implanting brains is slowly becoming more acceptable
C. It takes quite a long time for Dr Bertolt to acclimatize to the bionic technology
