From the guts of a car to the components of an airplane, machining cutting tools craft hunks of
metal into reliable precision parts. Machining cutting tools range from rough cutting equipment,
like chop saw or grinder, to programmable, production oriented machines, like the metal mill. If
you have ever wondered how to turn stairway posts, a lathe is the answer. The lathe of a machinist
functions like a wood-burning table, but gives the power and precision for milling metal. Mount
the material at each end to the lathe, then turn the lathe and press the cutting edges against the
material as it rotates. You can also manually press cutting edges against the material, or program
and operate the cuts via computer input. The drill press bores precision holes, reams openings and
cuts threads. The drill press features an arm that suspends a drill over a stationary base. Put the
material at the base, then activate the drill and lower it through the material. Drill presser lower on
a fixed axis; they cut precisely straight up and down.

Balancing
The reciprocating motion of the piston in an engine cylinder creates out-of-balance forces
acting along with the cylinder, while the centrifugal force associated with the crankpin
rotating about the main bearing centers creates a rotating out-of-balance force. These forces,
if not in themselves necessarily damaging, create objectionable vibration and noise in the
engine foundations, and through them to the ship (or building) in which the engine is
operating. Balancing is a way of controlling vibrations by arranging that the overall
summation of the out-of-balance forces and couples cancels out or is reduced to a more
acceptable amount.

The disturbing elements are in each case forces, each of which acts in its own plane, usually
including the cylinder axis. The essence of balancing is that a force can be exactly replaced
by a parallel force acting in a reference plane (chosen to suit the calculation) and a couple
whose arm is the distance perpendicularly between the planes in which these two forces act.
In as much as the balance is usually considered at and about convenient reference planes, all
balancing involves consideration of forces and couples.

A. a way of decreasing vibrations by arranging that the out-of-balance forces to a more
acceptable amount

acceptable amount
D. a way of constructing vibrations by arranging that the out-of-balance forces to a more
acceptable amount
E. a way of stimulating vibrations by arranging that the out-of-balance forces to a more
acceptable amount

There is evidence that it existed during Ancient times; while under the rule of Caesar, the
Romans participated in it; in our day and age, we are surrounded by it. Gambling has
become an accepted reality of society (France, 1902). Playing the weekly lottery, betting on
horses at the track, and dabbing one’s bingo card at the community hall are just a few of the
many forms of gambling. Although it is considered to be a harmless hobby to some people,
it is an illness to others. Despite the studies that indicate that gambling can have negative
effects on the family, health sector, and the law and enforcement system, it is the attractive
revenue that gambling provides to governments, the influx of tourism it can bring to a city,
or the notion of the state taking control away from the underworld that help to reveal that the
benefits of the legalization of gambling are greater than the costs.

10. What France (1902) said about gambling?

A. Gambling is a fun activity
B. Gambling is a crime through the ages
C. In Roman and Caesar’s rule, gambling is a common activity
D. Gambling is a popular activity in the society
E. Gambling takes part in society
11. What is the topic of the text?
A. Gambling
B. Gambling in the Romans emperor
C. Gambling and the benefit
D. How government take over the gambling
E. Legalization of gambling
12. Why does the gambling become attractive revenue?
A. It takes benefits and dilemma in the same time
B. It takes a tourism and serve people to join in gambling
C. It takes underworld to the main stage of government
D. It takes tourism and changes the problem become the massive income
E. It takes a high risk of taking gambling as a tourism

Belt Drive and Chain Drive

A prime mover is used to generate mechanical energy by converting from other form of
energy. For example, electric motor converts electrical energy to mechanical energy and delivers
the same in the form of shaft rotation. Similarly, hydraulic turbine, steam turbine, wind mill, etc.
can also act as prime mover. Mechanical drives are used to transmit motion, torque and power
from such prime movers (driver shaft) to machine parts (driven shaft). Apart from transmission,
they can also change the direction of rotation and alter the speed according to the requirement in
the machine unit. There are many mechanical drives, namely gear drive, belt drive, chain drive,
and rope drive. Such drives also take help of other power transmission elements (like shaft, key,
coupling, brake, clutch, pulley, sprocket, etc.) for efficient and uninterrupted power transmission.
Each of the four mechanical drives has respective benefits and limitations; and thus are
suitable for specific purposes. These four drives can be classified in several ways on various
basis. One such basis of classification is means of power transmission. In all such drives where
power is transmitted by means of friction force between two mating parts are called friction drive
(for example, belt drive). When power is transmitted by means of engagement, then that type of
drive is termed as engagement drive (for example, gear drive and chain drive). Another factor of
classifying mechanical drives is presence of flexible elements. All such drives where an
intermediate flexible linkage exists between driver and driven shafts are called flexible drive;
whereas, if no such intermediate linkage exist then it is grouped as rigid drive. Belt drive and
chain drive both come under flexible drives; whereas gear drive is one rigid drive.

16. What is mechanical drives for?

A. transfer motion, torque and power to machine part
B. transmit motion, power and decrease to the driven shaft
C. transfer motion, torque and weaken to machine part
D. transmit motion, torque and power to whole part
E. transmit motion, torque and power to the driven shaft
17. Based on the text, how many mechanical drives?
A. Six
B. Five
C. Four
D. Three
E. Two
 18. What is the main idea of the paragraph two?
A. Mechanical drive’s limitations
B. Respective benefits of Mechanical drive

D. Belt drive and chain drive
E. Mechanical Energy
19. What is flexible drive?
A. Presence of flexible elements
B. Changing the direction of rotation
C. Friction and flexible force between two mating parts

Advertisements

There are many reasons for both sides of the question, "Should we have printed
advertisement'?" Many people have strong views and feel that ads are nothing more than
useless junk mail, while other people feel it is important source information.
There are some reasons why we should have advertisement in newspaper and magazines.
One reason is ads give us information about what is available. Looking at ads we can find out
what is on sale and what is new in the market. This is an easy way of shopping. Another
reason is that advertisement promotes business. When shop owners compete against each
other the buyer saves money, more people come to their shops and they sell more goods.
On the other hand, some people argue that ads should not be put in newspapers and
magazines for these various reasons. Firstly, ads cost the shopkeepers a lot of money to print
onto paper. Also some people don't like finding junk mail in their letter boxes. Ads also
influence people to buy items they don't need and can't really afford. Ads use up a lot of
space and a lot of effort has to be made the ads eye-catching.
After looking at both sides of issue, I think we should not have advertisements because they
cost a lot of money and take up a lot of room in the papers. I don't think I find some of them
interesting. I mainly disagree because it's junk mail.

20. Why does the writer present two sides of opinions of advertisements?
A. The writer wants the reader to support her/ his opinion about ads
B. The writer tells the benefit of advertisement
C. The writer gives some instruction to handle the junk mail
D. The writer wants the readers know the opinion about the issue
E. The writer persuades the reader to hate the issue

21. The writer influences the readers by repeatedly saying that ....
A. The ads are only garbage
B. The ads contain unimportant business information
C. The ads promote unnecessary service product
D. The ads inform us tips of easy shopping
E. The ads become the source of information
22. "Ads use up a lot of space and a lot of effort has to be made the ads eye-catching. The
underlined word is closest in meaning to ....
A. Delicate
 B. Plain
C. Subtle
D. Newsworthy
E. Impressive
23. What is the generic structure of the text?
A. Arguments – recommendation – thesis
B. Thesis – arguments – recommendation
