    IV. Read the passage below and choose one correct answer for each question.

    Last week I went to visit Atlantic College, an excellent private college in Wale. Unusually, it gives young 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 world, 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 the students are British and many of those can only attend because they receive government’s help.

    “I really admire the college for trying to encourage international understandings 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 really seem to work.

    1. What is the writer trying to do in the text?
    2. give an opinion about a particular student.
    3. give an opinion about a special type of education.
    4. describe his own experience of education.
    5. describe the activities the students do in their free time.
    6. What can a reader find out from this text?
    7. how to become a student at Atlantic College.
    8. what kind of program Atlantic College offers.
    9. what the British education system is like.
    10. how to get along better with other people.
    11. What is the writer’s opinion of Atlantic College?
    12. It doesn’t allow students enough study time.
    13. Its students are taught to like each other.
    14. It doesn’t give good value for money.
    15. Its way of teaching is successful.
    16. How has Barbara changed since being at Atlantic College?
    17. She knows a lot about other countries.
    18. She is more confident than her sister now.
    19. She finds it easier to get on with other people.
    20. She prefers her new friends to her family.
    21. Which advertisement uses correct information about Atlantic College?

    1. Study at Atlantic College.Courses for 16-18 year olds.Morning lessons and afternoon activities. Help with fees available

    Probably the most important factor governing the sererity of forest fires is weather. Hot, dry weather lowers the moisture content of fuels.once a fire has started,wind is extremely critical because it influences the oxygen supply and the rate of spread. Forest type and forest conditions are also important factors. For example, fire is more likely to occur in conifers than in hardwoods; slash-covered or brushy areas are especially hazardous because the rate at which combustion consumes fuels is proportional to fuel volume and surface area.

    Some fies are caused by lightning; others are caused by people. Those caused by people may be accidental or intertional ( incendiary). The causes of fire in the United States show large regional differences. In the Rocky Moutains more than 70 percent of the fires are caused by lightning, whereas incendiary fires amount to only about 1 percent. In contrast, more than 40 percent of the fires in the South are incendiary, whereas lightning causes only 1 percent.

    Almost all the energy on the earth comes from the sun. Heat from the sun makes the earth warm enough for life. Plants use the sun’s energy to live and grow. Plants give off a

    gas called oxygen. Animals eat plants and breathe oxygen. Animals need plants in order to live, and plants need the sun. You use plants to creat heat and energy. You can burn wood

    from  trees.You  can  burn  fossil  called  coal,  gas,  and  oil.  Fossil  fuels  formed  deep underground from plants and animals that died millions of years ago.

    The sun’s energy can also do harm. Too much sunlight can burn your skin, causing sunburn. Harmful rays from the sun can also cause a disease called skin cancer. Looking

    right at the sun can harm your eyes. You need to be careful of the sun. The center of the sun is called the core, which is extremely hot. All the energy of the sun comes from the

    nuclear reactions in its core. It takes a long time for the energy from the core to reach the surface of the earth-about 170,000 years!

    One of the seven wonders of the ancient world. The Great Pyramid of Giza was a monument of wisdom and prophecy built as a tomb for Pharaoh Cheops in 2720 BC. Despite its antiquity, certain aspects of its construction make it one of the truly great wonders of the world. The thirteen- acre structure near the Nile River is a solid mass of stone blocks covered with limestone. Inside are the number of hidden passageways and the burial chamber for the Pharaoh. It is the largest single structure in the world. The four sides of the Pyramid are aligned almost exactly on true North, South, East and West- an incredible engineering feat. The ancient Egyptians were sun worshipers and great astronomers, so computations for the Great Pyramid were based on astronomical observations.

    Explorations and detailed examinations of the base of the structure reveal many interesting lines. Further scientific study indicates that these represent a type of timeline of events- past present and future. Many of the events have been interpreted and found to coincide with known facts of the past. Others are prophesied for future generations and are currently under investigation. Many believe that pyramids have supernatural powers and this one is no exception. Some researchers even associate it with extraterrestrial being of the ancient past. Was this superstructure made by ordinary being, or one built by a race far superior to any known today?

    1. What has the research of the base revealed?
    2. There are cracks in the foundation
    3. Tomb robbers have stolen the pharaoh’s body

    52Extraterrestrial beings are

    1. very strong wonders B. astronomers in the ancient times
    2. research in Egyptology D. living beings from other planets

    1. to allow the weight of the pyramid to settle evenly.
    2. to permit the high priests to pray at night
    3. to enable the pharaoh’s family to bring food for the journey after life.
    4. to keep grave robbers from finding the tomb and the treasure buried with the pharaoh.

    54:  What is the best title for the passage?

    1. Symbolism of the great Pyramid
    2. Problem with the construction of the Great Pyramid
    3. Wonders of the Great Pyramid of Giza .

    3. Astrological computations
    4. Date of the important events taking place throughout time.

    In the modern world, there’s a wealth of leisure activities to choose from. Entertainment industries compete for your leisure time. You can watch TV, listen to music, go to an art gallery or, of course, read a book. Sometimes, it seems that reading is neglected because even if you are a fast reader, it can take a considerable amount of time to finish a novel, for example. But in the modern world, time is something that can be in short supply .

    Book publishers haven’t been slow to realize this and are now selling a product which needn’t take up as much of your time but still tells you an excellent story. The new product is the audio book-cassette recording of shortened novels, often read by well-known personalities or the authors themselves. Audio books are relatively new but people are becoming more aware of them and sales are not increasing all the time.

    One of the attractions of audio books is that they are like listening to the radio, only better. You can listen to what you want when you want and you won’t ever miss anything.

    Read the passage below carefully and choose the correct answer A, B, C, or D.

    Many years ago, people often said  “a woman’s place is in the home ”. But Americans do not feel that way any more. Today, women make up about 43 percent of the America labor force. There are about 45 million working women in the United States, and a large number of them are married women with children. In 1980, for the first time in the nation’s history there were more working wives than household wives. Looking back to 1940, we can see a picture of some very rapid change. In 1940, only 15 percent of married women held jobs.

    Today,  most young women choose to work even when they have young children. Why do they work? The most important reason is that they need to earn money. But another reason is that women today are better educated and they have more opportunities to work in various professions than women had earlier.

    As far back as 700B.C., man has talked about children being cared for by wolves. Romuhts and Remus, the legendary twin founders of-Rome, were purported to have been cared for by wolves. It is believed that when a she-wolf loses ‘her litter, she seeks a human child to take its place.

    This seemingly preposterous idea did not become credible until the late tenth century when a French doctor actually found a naked ten year-old boy wandering in the woods. He did not walk erect, could not speak intelligibly, nor could he relate to people. He only growled and stared at them. Finally the doc­tor won the boy’s confidence and began to work with him.

    A solar eclipse occurs when the Moon moves in front of the Sun and hides at least some part of the Sun from the earth. In a partial eclipse, the Moon covers part of the Sun; in an annual eclipse, the Moon covers the center of the Sun, leaving a bright ring of light around the Moon; in a total eclipse, the Sun is completely covered by the Moon.

    It seems rather improbable that a celestial body size of the Moon could completely block out the tremendously immense Sun, as happens during a total eclipse, but this is exactly what happens. Although the Moon is considerably smaller in size than the Sun, the Moon is able to cover the Sun because of their relative distances from Earth. A total eclipse can last up to 7 minutes, during which time the Moon’s shadow moves across Earth at a rate of about 6 kilometers per second.

    2. describes how long an eclipse will last.

    4. explains how the Sun is able to obscure the Moon.
    5. informs the reader about solar eclipses.

    14. Square b. Cover c. Evaporate d. Shrink
    15. According to the passage, how can the Moon hide the Sun during a total eclipse?
    16. The fact that the Moon is closer to Earth than the Sun makes up for the Moon’s smaller size.
    17. The Moon can only obscure the Sun because of the Moon’s great distance from the Earth.
    18. Because the Sun is relatively close to Earth, the Sun can be eclipsed by the Moon.

    Most people think of deserts as dry, flat areas with little vegetation and little or no rainfall, but this is hardly true. Many deserts have varied geographical formations ranging from soft, rolling hills to stark, jagged cliffs, and most deserts have a permanent source of water. Although deserts do not receive a high amount of rainfall – to be classified as a desert, an area must get less than twenty-five centimeters of rainfall per year – there are many plants that thrive on only small amounts of water, and deserts are often full of such plant life.

    Desert plants have a variety of mechanisms for obtaining the water needed for survival. Some plants, such as cactus, are able to store large amounts of water to last until the next rainfall. Other plants, such as the mesquite, have extraordinarily deep root systems that allow them to obtain water from far below the desert’s arid surface.

    The hippopotamus is the third largest land animal, smaller only than the elephant and the rhinoceros. Its name comes from two Greek words which mean “river horse”. The long name of this animal is often shortened to the easier to handle term “hippo.”

    The hippo has a natural affinity for the water. It does not float on top of the water; instead, it can easily walk along the bottom of a body of water. The hippo commonly remains underwater for three to five minutes and has been known to stay under for up to half an hour before coming up for air.

    In spite of its name, the hippo has relatively little in common with the horse and instead has a number of interesting similarities in common with the whale. When a hippo comes up after a stay at the bottom of a lake or river, it releases air through a blowhole, just like a whale.

    An important part of world history is the story of communication. In prehistoric times, for example, people did not have books. They did not know much about geography. People were limited. They knew only about themselves and their environment (the land around their homes). Their knowledge of geographical things like  mountains and rivers was limited. They did not travel very far. Sometimes they knew about nearby people and communicated with them. They sent messages in simple ways. Early signals  for communication included smoke from fires and the sounds of drums.

    Then people formed towns, and then cities, as safe places to live. Soon they began to develop other ways to communicate, to spread information. People began to buy and sell things to one another. Because of their business, they developed writing systems to keep records and to send messages. Life was changing for many people. Business caused changes, and so did the invention of the printing press. Many more people learned to read then.

    Question 5: Read the passage and choose the best answer.

    It is very important to have healthy teeth. Good teeth help us to chew our food. They also help us to look nice. How does a tooth go bad? The decay begins in a little crack in the enamed covering of the tooth. This happens after germs and bits of food have collected there. Then the decay slowly spreads inside the tooth. Eventually, poison goes into blood, and we may feel quite ill.

    How can we keep our teeth healthy?. Firstly, we ought to visit our dentist twice a year. He can fill the small holes in our teeth before they destroy the teeth. He can examine our teeth to check  that they are growing in the right way. Unfortunately, many people wait until they have toothache before they see a dentist.

    Secondly, we should brush our teeth with a toothbrush and fluoride toothpaste at least twice a day- once after breakfast and once before we go to bed. We can also use wooden toothpicks to clean between our teeth after a meal.

    Thirdly, we should eat food that is good for our teeth and our body: milk, cheese, fish, brown bread, potatoes, red rice, raw vegetables and fresh fruit. Chocolate, sweets, biscuits and cakes are bad, especially when we eat them between meals. They are harmful because they stick to our teeth and cause decay.

    V. Read the following two passages and choose the correct answer for each question.

    Various types of fog are essentially clouds that form at the earth’s surface, produced by temperature differences and moisture in the air.

    A healthful lifestyle leads to a longer, happier, healthier life. Staying healthy means eating a well-balanced diet, getting regular exercise, and avoiding things that are bad for the body and mind.

    Nutrition plays a key role in maintaining good health and preventing many diseases. In spite of all the information available about diets, scientists still believe that good nutrition can be simple. There are several basic rules to follow. Keep fat intake low. Eat foods high in carbo-hydrates, which are the starches in grains, legumes (beans and peas), vegetables, and some fruits. Avoid too much sugar. Limit salt. Eat lots of fruits and vegetables, which are high in vitamins.

    A healthful lifestyle is an active lifestyle. Lack of proper physical exercise can cause tiredness, irritability, and poor general health. Physical fitness requires both aerobic exercise, such as running, bicycle riding, and swimming, and muscle-strengthening exercises, such as weight-lifting.

    Finally, good health is acquired by saying no to bad habits such as smoking, drinking, and overeating and by avoiding situations that are constantly stressful. People can take their lives and happiness into their own hands. Maintaining a healthy lifestyle is the first step.

    1. What is the main idea of the passage? A. How to keep an active lifestyle
    1. How to lead a healthy life C. The importance of nutrition
    1. The importance of physical exercise

    1. Smoking, drinking, excessive eating, and stressful situations
    1. Smoking, drinking, excessive eating, dieting, and stressful situations
    1. What does the word “nutrition” in the first paragraph mean?
