Tigers are one of the most powerful and graceful animals in the world. The different species
that still exist today, namely the Bengal, Indochina, Siberian, South China and Sumatra tigers are in
danger of becoming extinct. Due to irresponsible hunting, the Bali, Caspian and Java tigers have
already become extinct. This could soon happen to the other species too.
In the past, tigers were considered as pests. With a smaller area to hunt, as man had taken up
more of the land to build upon, the tigers found less area for themselves to hunt. They thus turned to
farms to get their food. Farmers’ livestock were attacked by these tigers. People were then encouraged
to hunt and kill these animals with the promise of rewards. Even after the threat of tigers on livestock
was over, man continued to hunt tigers, this time for recreation. Poachers too hunt tigers for their body
parts knowing that the skin of tigers is much sought after. Bones and other organs are also used as
ingredients in traditional Chinese medicine. Although killing is illegal, it is still being carried out
unless it is stopped, the remaining species of tigers will soon become extinct too.

Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C or D to indicate the correct answer to
each of the questions.
Did you know that on average we forget about 80% of the medical information a doctor might
give us? This fascinating information came to light as a result of a study carried out by Utrecht
University. What is even more interesting is that almost half of what we think we remember is wrong.
Why do you think this is? Well, it’s not as complicated as you may think. You see, going to
the doctor fills most people with anxiety and when we are really nervous and stressed we are more
likely to focus on the diagnosis rather than the treatment. Therefore, we know what is wrong with as
but have no idea what to do about it.
Here are some good tips to keep in mind when seeing a doctor. Always write down any
important information. What would be even better is, if your doctor agreed, to record your
consultation. This way, you can replay the advice at home, where you are more likely to absorb it. If
you believe the situation is serious or you’re really worried, seek the help of a family member. Just ask
them to accompany you to listen in. This way you can be sure about what the doctor has told you and
avoid falling into the same trap that most people do.

B. refer to it later to better understand your condition

Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, or D to indicate the correct answer to
American foods began to affect the rest of the world. American emphasis on convenient and
rapid consumption is best represented in fast foods such as hamburgers, French fries, and soft drinks.
By the 1960s and 1970s fast foods became one of America's strongest exports as franchises for Me
Donald's and Burger King spread through Europe and other parts of the world, including Russia and
China. Traditional meals cooked at home and consumed at a leisurely pace gave way to quick lunches
and dinners eaten on the run as other countries imitated American cultural patterns.

poultry, fish and vegetables, and fewer eggs and less beef. Cooks began to rediscover many world
cuisines in forms closer to their original. In California, chefs combined fresh fruits and vegetables
available with ingredients and spices borrowed from immigrant kitchens to create an innovative
cooking style that was lighter than traditional French, but more interesting and varied than typical
American cuisine. Along with the state's wines, California cuisine took its place among the
acknowledged forms of fine dining.

In the earliest times children got their education directly from parents and other adults. They
learned mainly skills for survival. Adults passed down this knowledge through spoken language.
Eventually cultures around the world began inventing writing. As societies developed they set up
schools to teach reading, writing, maths and other subjects.
The first schools were usually just for boys. Most of the students came from rich and powerful
families. Often the purpose of their education was religious training. In many cultures the religious
leaders formed the highest level of society. Some schools had other purposes as well. Many schools
focused on military training. Sometimes youths attended special schools to learn the art of public
speaking. These skills were meant to help them become future leaders.
Most girls received their education at home. They learned cooking, sewing and other useful
skills. Over time education became available to more people, not just the rich and powerful. The
governments of some countries set up public systems of education in the 1800s. More schools opened
to girls.
During the 1900s marks, or grades, became a new measure of learning. Testing became a
regular part of formal education. As education became more important to people, teachers' colleges
opened. The requirements for becoming a teacher became stricter. Teaching became a highly respected
profession.

The Beatles
In the 1960s, the Beatles were probably the most famous pop group in the whole world. Since
then, there have been a great many groups that have achieved enormous fame, so it is difficult now to
imagine how sensational the Beatles were at that time. They were four boys from the north of England
and none of them had any training in music. They started by performing and recording songs by black
Americans and they had some success with these songs. Then they started writing their own songs and
that was when they became really popular. The Beatles changed pop music. They were the first pop
group to achieve great success from songs they had written themselves. After that it became common
for groups and singers to write their own songs. The Beatles did not have a long career. Their first hit
record was in 1963 and they split up in 1970. They stopped doing live performances in 1966 because it
had become too dangerous for them – their fans were so excited that they surrounded them and tried to
take their clothes as souvenirs! However, today some of their songs remain as famous as they were
when they first came out. Throughout the world, many people can sing part of a Beatles song if you
ask them.

Television and Kids
Television is very popular and even has some benefits for kids. It helps very young children learn
the letters of the alphabet, and helps other kids learn about science, cultures, and world events.
However, researchers show that too much TV is bad for children. For one thing, there is a link
between watching more than four hours of TV a day and being overweight. For another thing, many
TV shows are violent and upsetting. Watching these shows may cause kids to be more fearful. And of
course, more time in front of the TV means less time to study. Too much TV may also be the cause of
lower grades.
Experts do not agree on the solution to these problems. Some say that kids should watch only
educational programs; others say kids should watch no TV at all. And others suggest teaching them to
watch TV as occasional entertainment, not as an everyday hobby.
