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.
Who talk more - men or women? Most people believe that women talk more. However,
linguist Deborah Tannen, who has studied the communication style of men and women, says that
this is a stereotype. According to Tannen, women are more verbal - talk more - in private
situations, where they use conversation as the "glue" to hold relationships together. But, she says,
men talk more in public situations, where they use conversation to exchange information and gain
status. Tannen points out that we can see these differences even in children. Little girls often play
with one "best friend", their play includes a lot of conversation. Little boys often play games in
groups; their play usually involves more doing than talking. In school, girls are often better at
verbal skills, boys are often better at mathematics.
A recent study at Emory University helps to shed light on the roots of this difference.
Researchers studied conversation between children age 3-6 and their parents. They found
evidence that parents talk very differently to their son than they do to their daughters. The
startling conclusion was that parents use more language with their girls. Specifically, when
parents talk with their daughters, they use more descriptive language and more details. There is
also far more talk about emotions, especially sadness, with daughters than with sons.

A. men and women B. men C. women D. situations.

C. Parents do not talk much about sadness with their sons.

A. Boys don't like showing their emotions.
B. Parents give more love to their daughters than their sons.
C. Girls are thought to be more talkative than boys.

wrong and oversimplified.

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.
Last week, I went to visit Atlantic College, an excellent private college in Wales. Unusually,
it gives people much needed experience of life outside the classroom, as well as the opportunity
to study for their exams. The students, who are aged between 16 and 18 and come from all over
the word, spend the morning studying. In the afternoon they go out and do a really useful activity,
such as helping on the farm, looking after people with learning difficulties, or checking for
pollution in rivers.
One of the great things about Atlantic College students is that they come from many
different social backgrounds and countries. As few can afford the fees of £20,000 over two years,
grants are available.
A quarter of students are British, and many of those can only attend because they receive
government help. "I really admire the college for trying to encourage international understanding
among young people", as Barbara Molenkamp, a student from the Netherlands, said. ''You learn to
live with people and respect them, even the ones you don't like. During the summer holidays my
mother couldn't believe how much less I argued with my sister."
To sum up, Atlantic College gives its students an excellent education, using methods which
