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 1 to 5.
Because deaf people cannot hear, they have special ways of communicating. For example, they can
learn to understand what someone is saying by looking at the mouth of the speaker. This is called
lipreading. Also, speaking is very difficult for the deaf, because they cannot hear their own voices.
However, it is possible with special training. According to many deaf people all around the world, the
most practical and popular way of communicating is with sign language.
In many ways, sign language is similar to spoken language. The words of sign language are made with
signs, which are formed with movements of the hands, face, and body. As with words, each sign has a
different meaning and can be combined to form sentences. Signed languages also have their own
grammar. The alphabet of sign language is special hand signs that stand for letters; they make spelling
possible. The signs combine to form a rich language that can express the same thoughts, feelings, and
ideas as any spoken language. And just as people from different countries speak different languages, most
countries have their own variety of sign language.
There are many ways to learn a few signs. Community colleges often teach introductory classes. For
self-learners, bookstores and libraries have books for learning sign language. There are also instructional
videos on the Internet, with actors demonstrating signs and performing interesting stories and
conversations for you to see. With practice, you'll soon get the hang of this useful method of
communicating!

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 6 to 12.
Think about the last test you took. How much of what you learned for the test do you still remember?
Many people take tests to pass a course or get a promotion, but they often forget the information
afterward! This is especially the case for people taking large international tests like TOEFL or IELTS.
These tests usually involve multiple-choice questions, and people often study to increase their scores, not
to learn important information. In fact, educators are divided on whether these kinds of tests are the most
effective way to assess a person's abilities.
Those who support such tests say they are the only way for educators and employers to compare people
based on their test scores. However, there are people trying to reform this system: They believe that
standard tests aren't the best way to measure a person's ability. These reformers also believe that intelligent
people are not always good at taking tests or memorizing facts. A multiple-choice test cannot always tell
what people have learned, or whether they can apply that knowledge in the future.
Reformers believe that other types of evaluation achieve better results. Tests that contain a mix of
written and spoken questions give a more complete assessment of what the person is capable of. A
portfolio, or a collection of work done throughout a course, can show how much the student has improved
individually. Group interviews, where a group of people are interviewed at the same time, can also be
useful for employers, since they show how people interact with others.
Alternative educational institutions such as Montessori and Waldorf schools don't believe that
education should be focused on testing. At these schools, the classroom is very relaxed and ''free," with
students learning from each other as much as they learn from teachers. Some of these schools even allow
students to choose what they study. Teachers create activities designed to let students show their abilities
or knowledge of a certain subject. In these schools, the focus is on learning by experiencing and doing
things.
The debate on testing continues, and educators have yet to find a perfect method of evaluating learning.
Until that day comes, old test methods will be used and new test methods will continue to develop. But
one thing’s for sure, testing will continue to play an important part in all our lives - so study hard.
