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 following questions As the twentieth century began, the importance of formal education in the US increased The frontier had mostly disappeared and by 1910 most Americans lived in towns and cities Industrialization and the bureaucratization of economic life combined with a new emphasis upon credentials and expertise to make schooling increasingly important for economic and social mobility Increasingly, too, schools were viewed as the most important means of integrating immigrants into American society The arrival of a great wave of southern and eastern European immigrants at the turn of the century coincided with and contributed to an enormous expansion of formal schooling By 1920 schooling to age fourteen or beyond was compulsory in most sates, and the school year was greatly lengthened Kindergartens, vacation schools, extracurricular activities, and vocational education and counseling extended the influence of public schools over the lives of students, many of whom in the larger industrial cities were the children of immigrants Classes for adults immigrants were sponsored by public schools, corporations, unions, churches and other agencies Reformers early in the twentieth century suggested that education programs should suit the needs of specific populations Immigrant women were once such population, School tried to educate young women so they could occupy productive places in the urban industrial economy, and one place many educators considered appropriate for women was the home Although looking after the house and family was familiar to immigrant women American education gave homemaking a new definition In preindustrial economies, homemaking had meant the production as well as the consumption of good, and it commonly included income-producing activities both inside and outside the home, in the highly industrialized early twentieth-century United states, however, overproduction rather than scarcity was becoming a problem Thus, the idea American was viewed as consumer rather than a producer Schools trained women to be consumer homemakers cooking, shopping, decorating and caring for children “ efficiently” in their own homes, or if economic necessity demanded, as employees in the homes of others Subsequent reforms have made these notions seem quite out of date Question 45: The paragraph preceding the passage probably discusses _ A the industrialization the bureaucratization of economic life the US in the nineteen century B the formal schooling in the US in the nineteen century C the urbanization in the US in the nineteen century D the most important means of integrating immigrants into American society in the nineteen century Question 46: It can be inferred from paragraph that one important factor in the increasing importance of education in the US was A the expanding economic problems of schools B the growing number of schools in frontier communities C an increase in the number of trained teachers D the increased urbanization of the entire country Question 47: The word” mean” in line

education was limited B new regulations were imposed on nontraditional education C adults and children studied in the same classes D most places required children to attend school Question 50: “vacation schools, extracurricular activities” are mentioned in line to illustrate _ A activities that competed to attract new immigrants to their programs B alternatives to formal education provided by public school C the importance of educational changes D the increased impact of public schools on students Question 51: According to the passage, early twentieth century education reformers believed that _ A special programs should be set up in frontier communities to modernize them B corporations and other organizations damaged educational progress C different groups needed different kinds of education D more women should be involved in education and industry Question 52: The word “it” in line 19 refers to _ A education B consumption C production D homemaking Question 53: Women

early twentieth-century United States C income-producing activities in the highly industrialized in the early twentieth-century United States D overproduction in the highly industrialized in the early twentieth-century United States Question 54: Which paragraph mentions the importance of formal schooling? A Paragraph Paragraph Paragraph Paragraph Read the passage and choose the best answer to each questions Very few people in the modern world obtain their food supply by hunting and gathering in the natural environment surrounding their homes This method of harvesting from nature’s provision is the oldest subsistence strategy, and has been practiced for at least two million years It was, indeed, the only way to obtain food until rudimentary farming and the domestication of animals were introduced about 10000 years ago Because hunter-gathers have fared poorly in comparison with their agricultural cousins, their numbers have dwindled, and they have been forced to live in marginal environments such as deserts forests or artic wasteland In higher latitudes, the shorter growing season has restricted the availability of plant life Such conditions have caused a greater independence on hunting, and along the coasts and waterways, on fishing The abundance of vegetation in the lower latitudes of the tropics, on the other hand, has provided a greater opportunity for gathering a variety of plants In short, the environmental differences have restricted the diet and have limited and possibilities for the development of subsistence societies Contemporary hunter- gathers may help us understand our prehistoric ancestors We know from from observation of modern hunter- gathers in both Africa and Alaska that society based on hunting and gathering must be very mobile While the entire community camps in a central location, a smaller party harvests the food within a reasonable distance from the camp When the food in the area is exhausted, the community moves on to exploit another site We also notice a seasonal migration on pattern evolving for most hunter gathers, along with a restrict division of labor between sexes These patterns of behavior may be similar to those practiced by mankind during the Paleolithic Period Question 55: With which of the following topics is the passage primarily concerned?

A greater dependence on hunting B more coasts and waterways for fishing C a shorter growing season D a large variety of plant life Question 63: How can we know more about hunter-gathers of prehistoric time? A by studying the remains of their campsites B by studying similar contemporary societies C by studying the prehistoric environment D by practicing hunting and gathering Question 64: Which of the following is not mentioned in the above passage? A More and more people in the modern time live on the food they gather in the natural environment B The more vegetable in the lower latitude in the tropics there is, the greater opportunity for gathering around their homes C Because of the shorter growing season in higher latitude, the availability of plants is limited D The environmental differences result in restricted diet WRITING Part I.Finish each of the following the sentences in such a way that it means the same as the sentence given Question 65: “Why don’t you complain to the company Peter?” said William William suggested………………………………………………………… Question 66: He started to play the guitar five years ago He has …………………………………………………………………… Question 67: I won’t swim in the sea because it is too cold The sea is not……………………………………………………………… Question 68: She hasn’t ridden a horse before It’s………………………………………………………………………… Question 69: Haven’t you got any cheaper televisions?

he is as concerned with the possible misuses of his findings as he is with the basic research in which he is involved This emerging social and political role of the biologist and all other scientists requires a weighing of values that cannot be done with the accuracy or the objectivity of a laboratory balance As a member of society, it is necessary for a biologist now to redefine his social obligations and his functions, particularly in the realm of making judgments about such ethical problems as man’s control of his environment or manipulation of genes to direct further evolution development As a result of recent discoveries concerning hereditary mechanisms, genetic engineering, by which human traits are made to order, may soon be a reality A desirable as it may seem to be, such an accomplishment would entail many value judgments Who would decide, for example, which trails should be elected for change In cases of genetic deficiencies and disease, the desirability of the change is obvious, but the possibilities for social misuse are so numerous that they may far outweigh the benefits Probably the greatest biological problem of the future, as it is of the present, will be to find ways to curb environmental pollution without interfering with man’s constant effort to improve the quality of his life Many scientists believe that underlying the spectre of pollution is the problem of surplus human population A rise in population necessitates an increase in the operations of modern industry, the waste products of which increase the pollution of air, water and soil The question of how many people resources of the earth can support is one of critical importance Although the solutions to these and many other problems are yet to be found, they indicate the need for biologists to work with social scientists and other members of society in order to determine the requirements necessary for maintaining a healthy and productive planet For although many of man’s present and future problems may seem to be essentially social , political, or economic in nature, they have biological ramifications that could affect the very existence of life itself Question 45: According to the passage, a modern scientist should be more concerned about ……… A his basic research B the development of new ideas C his manipulation of genes D the consequences of his discoveries Question 46: The pronoun “it” in paragraph refers to…… A a reality B an accomplishment C genetic engineering D hereditary mechanism Question 47: it is implied in the passage that genetic engineering…… A may us more harm than good B is no longer desirable C is the most desirable in life D will change all human traits Question 48: The pronoun “they” in paragraph refers to…… A discoveries concerning hereditary mechanisms B effects of genetic engineering misuse C cases of genetic deficiencies D possibilities for genetic deficiencies Question 49: What is probably the most important biological problem mentioned in the passage? A social and economic deficiencies B manipulation of genes C genetic engineering misuse D environmental problems Question 50: The word “which” in paragraph refers to…… A activities of an overpopulated society’s industry B the waste products into our environment C activities of surplus human population D serious environmental pollution Question 51: The word “underlying” in paragraph could be replaced by…… A noticing B causing C finding D depriving Question 52: According to the passage, to save our planet, biologist should work A harder and harder B accurately and objectively C on social and political purposes D with other social scientists Question 53: Which of the following is closest in meaning to the word “ ramification” in paragraph 4? A useful experiments B effective techniques C harmful consequences D latest developments Question 54: What is the author’s purpose in this passage? A to conduct a survey of the biologist’s role in society B to urge biologists to solve the problem of surplus human population C to emphasize the biologist’s role in solving the world’s problems D to advise biologists to carry out extensive research into genetic engineering Read the passage and choose the best answer among A, B, C, or D In early civilizations, citizens were educated informally, usually within the family unit Education meant simply learning to live As civilizations became more complex, however, education became more formal structured and comprehensive Initial efforts of the ancient Chinese and Greek societies concentrated solely on the education males The post- Babylonian Jews and Plato were exceptions to this pattern Plato was apparently the first significant advocate of the quality of the sexes Women, in his ideas state, would have the same rights and duties and the same educational opportunities as men This aspect of Platonic philosophy, however, had little or no effect on education for many centuries, and the concept of a liberal education for men only which had been espoused by Aristotle, prevailed In ancient Rome, the availability of an education was gradually extended to women, but they were taught separately from men The early Christians and medieval Europeans continued this trend, and single-sex schools for the privileged classes prevailed through the Reformation period Gradually, however, education for women on a separate but equal basis to that provided for men was becoming a clear responsibility of society Martin Luther appealed for civil support of schools for all children At the Council of Trent in the 16 th century, the Roman Catholic Church encouraged the establishment of free primary schools for children of all classes The concept of universal primary education, regardless of sex, had been born, but it was still in the realm of the single-sex school In the late 19th and early 20th century, co-education became a more widely applied principle of educational philosophy, In Britain, Germany, and the Soviet union the education of boys and girls in the same classes became an accepted practice Since World War II, Japan and the Scandinavian countries have also adopted relatively universal; co- educational systems The greatest negative reaction to co-education has been felt in the teaching, system of the Latin countries, where the sexes have usually been separated at both primary and secondary levels, according to local conditions A number of studies have indicated that girls seem to perform better overall and in science in particular in single-sex classes: during the adolescent years, pressure to conform to stereotypical female gender roles may disadvantage girls in traditionally male subjects, making them reluctant to volunteer for experimental work while taking part in lessons In Britain, academic league tables point to high standards achieved in girls’ schools Some educationalists therefore suggest segregation of the sexes as a good thing, particularly in certain areas, and a number of schools are experimenting with the idea Question 55: ancient education generally focused efforts on…… A male learners B both sexes C female learners D young people only Question 56: education in early times was mostly aimed at……… A teaching skill B learning to live C learning new lifestyle D imparting

When a species is no longer adapted to a change environment, it may perish The exact causes of a species’ death vary from situation to situation Rapid ecological change may render an environment hostile to a species For example, temperatures may change and a species may not be adapt Food resources may be affected by environmental changes, which will then cause problems for a species requiring these resources Other species may become better adapted to an environment, resulting in competition and, ultimately, in the death of a species The fossil record reveals that extinction has occurred throughout the history of Earth Recent analyses have also revealed that on some occasions many species became extinct at the same time - a mass extinction One of the best - known examples of mass extinction occurred 65 million years ago with the demise of dinosaurs and many other forms of life Perhaps the largest mass extinction was the one that occurred 225 million years ago, when approximately 95 percent of all species died Mass extinctions can be caused by a relatively rapid change in the environment and can be worsened by the close interrelationship of many species If, for example, something were to happen to destroy much of the plankton in the oceans, then the oxygen content of Earth would drop, affection even organisms not living in the oceans Such a change would probably lead to a mass extinction One interesting, and controversial, finding is that extinctions during the past 250 million years have tended to be more intense every 26 million years The periodic extinction might be due to intersection of the earth’s orbit with a cloud of comets, but this theory is purely speculative Some researchers have also speculated that extinction may often be random That is, certain species may be eliminated and others may survive for no particular reason A species’ survival may have nothing to with its ability or inability to adapt If so, some of revolutionary history may reflect a sequence of essentially random events Question 45: The word “it” in line refers to: A environment B species C extinction D 99 percent Question 46 : The word “ultimately” in line is closest meaning to A exceptionally B dramatically C eventually D unfortunately Question 47: What does the author say in paragraph regarding most species in Earth’s history?

D on your answer sheet to indicate the correct answer to each of the following questions from45to54 Large animals that inhabit the desert have evolved a number of adaptations for reducing the effects of extreme heat One adaptation is to be light in color, and to reflect rather than absorb the Sun’s rays Desert mammals also depart from the normal mammalian practice of maintaining a constant body temperature Instead of trying to keep down the body temperature deep inside the body, which would involve the expenditure of water and energy, desert mammals allow their temperatures to rise to what would normally be fever height, and temperatures as high as 46 degrees Celsius have been measured in Grant’s gazelles The overheated body then cools down during the cold desert night, and indeed the temperature may fall unusually low by dawn, as low as 34 degrees Celsius in the camel This is an advantage since the heat of the first few hours of daylight is absorbed in warming up the body, and an excessive buildup of heat does not begin until well into the day Another strategy of large desert animals is to tolerate the loss of body water to a point that would be fatal for non-adapted animals The camel can lose up to 30 percent of its body weight as water without harm to itself, whereas human beings die after losing only 12 to 13 percent of their body weight An equally important adaptation is the ability to replenish this water loss at one drink Desert animals can drink prodigious volumes in a short time, and camels have been known to imbibe over 100 liters in a few minutes A very dehydrated person, on the other hand, cannot drink enough water to rehydrate at one session, because the human stomach is not sufficiently big and because a too rapid dilution of the body fluids causes death from water intoxication The tolerance of water loss is of obvious advantage in the desert, as animals not have to remain near a water hole but can obtain food from grazing sparse and far-flung pastures Desert-adapted mammals have the further ability to feed normally when extremely dehydrated, it is a common experience in people that appetite is lost even under conditions of moderate thirst Question 45: What is the main topic of the passage? A Weather variations in the desert B Adaptations of desert animals C Diseased of desert animals D Human use of desert animals Question 46: According to the passage, why is light coloring an advantage to large desert animals? A It helps them hide from predators B It does not absorb sunlight as much as dark colors C It helps them see their young at night D It keeps them cool at night Question 47: The word “maintaining” is closest in meaning to _ A measuring B inheriting C preserving Question 48: The author uses of Grant’s gazelle as an example of A an animal with a low average temperature B an animal that is not as well adapted as the camel D delaying C a desert animal that can withstand high body temperatures D a desert animal with a constant body temperature Question 49: When is the internal temperature of a large desert mammal lower? A Just before sunrise C Just after sunset B In the middle of the day D Just after drinking Question 50: The word “tolerate” is closest in meaning to _ A endure B replace C compensate D reduce Question 51: What causes water intoxication? A Drinking too much water very quickly C Bacteria in water B Drinking polluted water D Lack of water Question 52: Why does the author mention humans in the second paragraph? A To show how they use camels C To give instructions about desert survival B To contrast them to desert mammals D To show how they have adapted to desert life Question 53: The word “obtain” is closest in meaning to _ A digest B carry C save D get Question 54: Which of the following is NOT mentioned as an adaptation of large desert animals? A Variation in body temperatures C Drinking water quickly B Eating while dehydrated D Being active at night 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 following questions from 55to 64 An air pollutant is defined as a compound added directly or indirectly by humans to the atmosphere in such quantities as to affect humans, animals, vegetation, or materials adversely Air pollution requires a very flexible definition that permits continuous change When the first air pollution laws were established in England in the fourteenth century, air pollutants were limited to compounds that could be seen or smelled - a far cry from the extensive list of harmful substances known today As technology has developed and knowledge of the health aspects of various chemicals has increased, the list of air pollutants has lengthened In the future, even water vapor might be considered an air pollutant under certain conditions Many of the more important air pollutants, such as sulfur oxides, carbon monoxide, and nitrogen oxides, are found in nature As the Earth developed, the concentration of these pollutants was altered by various chemical reactions; they became components in biogeochemical cycles These serve as an air purification scheme by allowing the compounds to move from the air to the water or soil On a global basis, nature's output of these compounds dwarfs that resulting from human activities However, human production usually occurs in a localized area, such as a city In such a region, human output may be dominant and may temporarily overload the natural purification scheme of the cycles The result is an increased concentration of noxious chemicals in the air The concentrations at which the adverse effects appear will be greater than the concentrations that the pollutants would have in the absence of human activities The actual concentration need not be large for a substance to be a pollutant; in fact, the numerical value tells us little until we know how much of an increase this represents over the concentration that would occur naturally in the area For example, sulfur dioxide has detectable health effects at 0.08 parts per million (ppm), which is about 400 times its natural level Carbon monoxide, however, has a natural level of 0.1 ppm and is not usually a pollutant until its level reaches about 15 ppm Question 55: What does the passage mainly discuss? A The economic impact of air pollution C How much harm air pollutants can cause B What constitutes an air pollutant D.The effects of compounds added to the atmosphere Question 56: The word "adversely" in the first paragraph is closest in meaning to _ A negatively B quickly C admittedly D considerably Question 57: It can be inferred from the first paragraph that _ A water vapor is an air pollutant in localized areas B most air pollutants today can be seen or smelled C the definition of air pollution will continue to change D a substance becomes an air pollutant only in cities Question 58:The word "These" in the second paragraph is closest in meaning to_ A the various chemical reactions C the compounds moved to the water B the pollutants from the developing Earth D the components in biogeochemical cycles Question 59: For which of the following reasons can natural pollutants play an important role in controlling air pollution? A They function as part of a purification process B They occur in greater quantities than other pollutants C They are less harmful to living beings than other pollutants D They have existed since the Earth developed Question 60: According to the passage, human-generated air pollution in localized regions _ A can be dwarfed by nature's output of pollutants B can overwhelm the natural system that removes pollutants C will damage areas outside of the localized regions D will react harmfully with natural pollutants Question 61: The word "localized" in the third paragraph is closest in meaning to _ A specified B circled C surrounded D encircled Question 62: According to the passage, the numerical value of the concentration level of a substance is only useful if _ A the other substances in the area are known C the natural level is also known B it is in a localized area D it can be calculated quickly Question 63: The word "detectable" in the third paragraph is closest in meaning to _ A beneficial B special C measurable D separable Question 64:Which of the following is best supported by the passage? A To effectively control pollution, local government should regularly review their air pollution laws B One of the most important steps in preserving natural lands is to better enforce air pollution laws C Scientists should be consulted in order to establish uniform limits for all air pollutants D Human activities have been effective in reducing air pollution WRITING PART Finish each of the following sentences in such a way that it means the same as the sentences printed before it Question 65: The only way you can become a good athlete is by training hard Only by…………………………………………………………………………………………… Question 66: “It certainly wasn’t me who took your car! “ said Bob Bob denied ……………………………………………………………………………………… Question 67: I’m sorry that I didn’t finish my homework last night I wish …………………………………………………………………………………………… Question 68: If I have free time, I will help you Unless………………………………………………………………………………………… Question 69: He left quietly so that he wouldn’t disturb the children So as…………………………………………………………………………………………… PART In about 140 words, write a paragraph about one of your most memorable experiences in your life …………………………………………………………………………………………………………………… …………………………………………………………………………………………………………………… …………………………………………………………………………………………………………………… …………………………………………………………………………………………………………………… …………………………………………………………………………………………………………………… …………………………………………………………………………………………………………………… …………………………………………………………………………………………………………………… …………………………………………………………………………………………………………………… …………………………………………………………………………………………………………………… …………………………………………………………………………………………………………………… …………………………………………………………………………………………………………………… ………………………………………………………………………………………………………………… …………………………………………………………………………………………………………………… …………………………………………………………………………………………………………………… …………………………………………………………………………………………………………………… …………………………………………………………………………………………………………………… KEY- TEST 1D 9B 17B 25A 33C 41B 49D 57B 2C 10C 18A 26B 34D 42C 50A 58D 3A 11C 19D 27D 35D 43D 51C 59A 4D 12C 20A 28C 36C 44B 52D 60C 5C 13A 21C 29D 37A 45B 53D 61B 6A 14D 22C 30D 38C 46D 54C 62D 7B 15C 23B 31D 39B 47B 55C 63A 8C 16A 24B 32A 40B 48A 56D 64A 6B 14B 22C 30B 38D 46C 54C 62C 7C 15A 23A 31C 39C 47A 55A 63D 8D 16D 24D 32B 40A 48B 56C 64C 65 William suggested that Peter should complain to the company 66 He has been playing the guitar for years 67 The sea is not warm enough for us to swim in 68 It’s the first time she has ridden a horse 69 Are these the cheapest TVs you have got?
