Television lie at the heart of American culture, offer a combination of news and amusement. It is not surprising,
therefore, that daytime talk shows, the ultimate blend of information and entertainment, are earning top rate. Talk show producers
and hosts claim that the purpose of air all sorts of problems on national television 5is to benefit viewers. They say they provide
useful information and have helped to create a more sensitive and educational public. Many of those who have appeared as guests
say doing so changed their lives, and the shows can certainly take the credit for giving a lot of people information they would not
otherwise have had. So do the shows provide a service by allowing people to work through issues that 10would otherwise be swept
under the carpet? Or is there a danger that viewers will regard the self-centered and thoughtful behavior they see in these
programs as a model of how to live their own lives?

For most people, this process ends when they are in their mid-to-late teens. For others, however, it is the beginning of a
lifetime of learning. After they finish school, many (5) to further education where they will learn more useful skills such
as computer literacy or basic business management. (6) will enroll on a program of higher education at a university
where, with hard work, they will have the opportunity to graduate after three or four years with a well-earned degree. After that,
they may work for a while before opting to study for a higher degree- an MA, for example, or a PhD. Alternatively, they may
choose to attend an evening class after work or, if they have a sympathetic employer, (7) day release so that they can
study during the week. And if they live a long way from a college or university, they might follow a (8) course using

TRY IT AND SEE
A. In the scientific pecking order, social scientists are usually looked down on by their peers in the natural sciences. Natural
scientists do experiments to test their theories or, if they cannot, they to look for natural phenomena that can act in lieu of
experiments. Social scientists, it is widely thought, do not subject their own hypotheses to any such rigorous treatment. Worse,
they peddle their untested hypotheses to government and try to get them turned into policies.
B. Governments require sellers of new medicines to demonstrate their safety and effectiveness. The accepted gold standard of
evidence is a randomized control trial, in which a new drug is compared with their best existing therapy (or with a placebo, if no
treatment is available). Patients are assigned to one arm or the other of such a study at random, ensuring that the only difference
between the two groups is the new treatment. The best studies also ensure that neither patient nor physician knows which patient
is allocated to which therapy. Drug trials must also include enough patients to make it unlikely that chance alone may determine
the result.
C. But few education programs or social initiatives are evaluated in carefully conducted studies prior to their introduction. A case
in point is the “whole-language” approach to reading, which swept much of the English speaking world in the 1970s and 1980s.
The whole-language theory holds that children learn to read best by absorbing contextual clues from texts, not by breaking
individual words into their component parts and reassembling them (a method known as phonics). Unfortunately, the educational
theorists who pushed the whole-language notion so successfully did not wait for evidence from controlled randomized trials
before advancing their claims. Had they done so, they might have concluded, as did an analysis of randomized studies carried out
by the US National Reading Panel in 2000, that effective reading instruction requires phonics.
D. To avoid the widespread adoption of misguided ideas, the sensible thing is to experiment first and make policy later. This is the
idea behind a trial of restorative justice which is taking place in the English courts. The experiment will include criminals who
plead guilty to robbery. Those who agree to participate will be assigned randomly either to sentencing as normal or to
participation in a conference in which the offender comes face to face with his victim and discusses how he may make emotional
and material restitution. The purpose of the trial is to assess whether such restorative justice limits reoffending. If it does, it might
be adopted more widely.
E. The idea of experimental evidence is not quite new to the social science as sneering natural scientists might believe. In fact,
randomized trials and systematic reviews of evidence were introduced into the social sciences long before they became common
in medicine. An apparent example of random allocation is a study carried out in 1927 of how to persuade people to vote in
elections. And randomized trials in social work were begun in the 1930s and 1940s. But enthusiasm later waned. This loss of
interest can be attributed, at least in part, to the fact that early experiments produced little evidence of positive outcomes. Others
suggest that much of the opposition to experimental evaluation stems from a common philosophical malaise among social
scientists, who doubt the validity of the natural sciences, and therefore reject the potential of knowledge derived from controlled
experiments. A more pragmatic factor limiting the growth of evidence-based education and social services may be limitations on
the funds available for research.
F. Nevertheless, some 11,000 experimental studies are known in the social sciences (compared with over 250,000 in the medical
literature). Randomized trials have been used to evaluate the effectiveness of driver-education programmes, job-training schemes,
classroom size, psychological counseling for post traumatic stress disorder and increased investment in public housing. And where
they are carried out, they seems to have a healthy dampening effect on otherwise rosy interpretations of the observations.
G. The problem for policymakers is often not too few data, but what to make of multiple and conflicting studies. This is where a
body called the Campbell Collaboration comes into its own. This independent non-profit organization is designed to evaluate
existing studies, in a process known as a systematic review. This means attempting to identify every relevant trial of a given
question (including studies that have never been published), choosing the best ones using clearly defined criteria for quality, and
combining the results in a statistically valid way. An equivalent body, the Cochrane Collaboration, has produced more than 1,000
such reviews in medical fields. The hope is that rigorous review standard will allow Campbell, like Cochrane, to become a trusted
and authoritative source of information.

Part 3. Read the passage and choose the best answers (A, B, C or D) to the questions.
Population ecology is the science that measures changes in population size and composition and identifies the causes of
these fluctuations. Population ecology is not concerned solely with the human population. In ecological terms, a population
consists of the individuals of one species that simultaneously occupy the same general area, rely on the same resources, and are
affected by similar environmental factors. The characteristics of a population are shaped by its size and by the interactions among
individuals and between individuals and their environment.
Population size is a balance between factors that increase numbers and factors that decrease numbers. Some factors that
increase populations are favourable light and temperature, adequate food supply, suitable habitat, ability to compete for resource,
and ability to adapt to environmental change. Factors that decrease populations are insufficient or excessive light and temperature,
inadequate food supply, unsuitable or destroyed habitat, too many competitors for resources, and inability to adapt to
environmental change.
Another important characteristic of any population is its density. Population density is the number of individuals per
units, such as the number of maple trees per square kilometer in a county. Ecologists can rarely determine population size by
actually counting all individuals within geographical boundaries. Instead, they often use a variety of sampling techniques to
estimate densities and total population sizes. For example, they might estimate the number of black bears in a national park by
counting individuals in a few sample plots representative of the whole park. In some cases, they estimate population size through
indirect indicators, such as the number of nests or burrows, or signs such as tracks or droppings.
Another important population characteristic, dispersion, is the pattern of spacious among individuals within the
population’s geographical boundaries. Various species are distributed in their habitats in different ways to take better advantage of
food supplies and shelter, and to avoid predators or find prey. Within a population’s range, densities may vary greatly because not
all areas provide equally suitable habitat, and also because individuals space themselves in relation to other members of the
population.
Three possible patterns of dispersion are clumped, uniform, and random. A clumped dispersion pattern means that
individuals are gathered in patches throughout their habitat. Clumping often results from the irregular distribution of resources
needed for survival and reproduction. For example, fallen trees keep the forest floor moist, and many forest insects are clumped
under logs where the humidity is to their liking. Clumping may also be associated with mating, safety, or other social behavior.
Crane flies, for example, swarm in great numbers, a behavior that increases mating chances, and some fish swim in large schools
so they are less likely to be eaten by predators.
A uniform or evenly spaced distribution results from direct interactions among individuals in the population. For
example, regular spacing of plants may result from shading and competitions for water. In animal populations, uniform
distribution is usually caused by competition for some resource or by social interactions that set up individual territories for
feeding, breeding, or testing.
Random spacing occurs in the absence of strong attraction or repulsion among individuals in a population. Overall,
random pattern are rare in nature, with most populations showing a tendency toward either clumped or uniform distribution.
 Populations change in size, structure, and distribution as they respond to changes in environmental conditions. Four main
variables- births, deaths, immigration and emigration – determine the rate of change in the size of the population over time. A
change in the birth rate or death is the major way that most populations respond to changes in resource availability. Members of
some animal species can avoid or reduce the effects of another with more favorable environmental conditions, thus altering the
population’s dispersion.
1.According to the passage, which factor might cause the population of a species to decrease in size?
A. A favorable amount of light and water
B. An ability to hide from or defend against predators
C. A large number of other species competing for food
D. A greater number of births than deaths

C. The number of births in a given period of time
D. The number of individuals counted in a given area
3. The distribution pattern of individuals within a population’s geographical boundaries is known as
A. population ecology B. population density

more than once.
Is there an architect in the house?
We took three offices, each in dire need of improvement, and paired them with three workplace design experts. Tom
Dyckhoff watched their theories put to the test.
The multimedia company
A. The problem: The reception at Channelfly.com is crammed with “new office” design features: the bashed-up sofas, the table
football, the spike-haired staff, Daff Punk on the stereo. But it’s all front. Behind, it’s crowded and confusing, with strip lighting,
hotch-potch furniture and thirsty spider plants. Not exactly the image of a young multimedia music company.
“We get top musicians like Cerys from Catatonia coming here,” says the Managing Director, Jeremy Ledlin. “We don’t want it to
look like an office.” But it just looks ugly. “Well, we don’t want it to look like that either.” The company has long working hours
and a wide range of activities, so it’s hard to keep coordinated. The claustrophobic, labyrinthine layout doesn’t help either.
B. The solution: Architect Ralph Buschow says, “The office should be like a city. You need ugly areas too. What they need right
now is somewhere to talk, not just the street or the photocopier. Otherwise, people only talk to the same people all the time. There
was another office we went to where we put a bar next to the lift and it immediately became a hotbed of idea-swapping. And they
need signposts. People want easy clues about how everything connects, or they go crazy.
The charity
C. The problem: Dreariness, cramped space, stifling ventilation, nasty lighting, carpet tiles, utilitarian furniture- Jim Devereux
has it all and the deep dissatisfaction that goes with it. The trouble is money: “In a charity, it’s tight.” His office, a housing aid
center combined from two shops in Fleetwood. Lancashire, is a threadbare, with only a clock, clutter, posters on benefit rates and
the like for decor. “But our biggest bother is there’s nowhere to go for a break, so everyone has lunch at their desks, and we’ve got
six new staff starting soon. Mind you, you should have seen where we used to work.”
D. The solution: “Hmm,” sighs architect Mervyn Hill. Sometimes The answer isn’t design, but rethinking how you work, like
how to work flexibly in the space you have: think of computers as workstations, do different jobs in different parts of the office,
and keep mobile: not one person tied to a desk all day.” But what about the ambience? “The people here are so committed, they’d
work in a cellar with two candles. A charity shouldn’t be luxurious, but it needs to be warm. This is Spartan. The bare fluorescent
strip lights have to go. Up lights will lift the ceiling, make it sparkle.”
The call center
E. The problem: Account manager Sally Stapleton insists this isn’t a call center. In fact, she calls where she works in Edinburgh
a contact center. “Compared with other contact center it’s light and airy, with plants, fresh decor.” But a call center’s a call center,
even when it’s a contact center- with similar problems, such as noise, and mundanity. “We need to alleviate the repetitive tasks of
the agents, so they can enjoy what they’re selling. We don’t mind a more casual space. But we’d draw the line at lots of fluffy
animals cluttering up the desks.”
F. The solution: “I’ve seen a lot worse,” says Julian Frost wick. He sounds disappointed. “But there’s lots to get my teeth into.
They need to humanize the space. It’s very bland and anonymous. They can kill a few birds with one stone by putting in a
beautiful new ceiling, a big wave, maybe, and this would break up the space into defined areas. Keep the rest cosmetic, treating
the windows for glare, a few colors. A bit of bright red will make it more exciting.
Changing the lighting will give this office a more spacious appearance. 1
The problem of this office does not provide enough challenge for the architect. 2
This office requires an area where informal discussions can take place. 3
Some problems in this office can be solved by changing the way the work is organized. 4
We would like our staff to benefit from a more varied routine. 5
The atmosphere of this office could be improved by repainting it. 6
The directors do not want the office to be perceived as very formal. 7
This office would work better if each department was clearly labelled. 8
The situation in this office is likely to get worse. 9
These offices may give visitors a false impression when they first arrive. 10
