There may be numerous special sections at the back with (50) _ about famous people and places, lists of dates and scientific names, etc There is usually a section at the front (51) how to use the dictionary, which includes the special abbreviations or signs An Atlas is also a reference book and (52) charts, tables and geographical geographical facts, as well as maps Political maps locate countries and cities, physical maps show the formation of the land with its mountains and valleys, and economic maps show industries and agriculture To find a specific place, you need to look in the (53) at the back of the atlas and the exact position on the map There are numerous map (54) that you need to know in order to be able to read a map-almost like a special language-and these are explained at the front of the atlas 45 A greatly B mainly C widely D largely 46 A speaks B tells C says D gives 47 A evidence B roof C examples D cases 48 A antonyms B closest C opposite D controversies 49 A assists B pays C helps D works 50 A events B stories C facts D materials 51 A explaining B interpreting C suggesting D presenting 52 A composes B includes C consists D contains 53 A foreword B preface C complement D index 54 A marks B signs C signals D symbols Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, D on your answer sheet to indicate the correct answer to each of the questions Iron production was revolutionized in the early eighteenth century when coke was first used instead of charcoal for refining iron ore Previously the poor quality of the iron had restricted its use in architecture to items such as chains and tie bars for supporting arches, vaults, and walls With the improvement in refining ore, it was now possible to make cast-iron beams, columns, and girders During the nineteenth century further advances were made, notably Bessemer's process for converting iron into steel, which made the material more commercially viable Iron was rapidly adopted for the construction of bridges, because its strength was far greater than that of stone or timber, but its use in the architecture of buildings developed more slowly By 1800 a complete internal iron skeleton for buildings had been developed in industrial architecture replacing traditional timber beams, but it generally remained concealed Apart from its low cost, the appeal of iron as a building material lay in its strength, its resistance to fire, and its potential to span vast areas As a result, iron became increasingly popular as a structural material for more traditional styles of architecture during the nineteenth century, but it was invariably concealed Significantly, the use of exposed iron occurred mainly in the new building types spawned by the Industrial Revolution: in factories, warehouses, commercial offices, exhibition hall, and railroad stations, where its practical advantages far outweighed its lack of status Designers of the railroad stations of the new age explored the potential of iron, covering huge areas with spans that surpassed the great vaults of medieval churches and cathedrals Paxton's Crystal Palace, designed to house the Great Exhibition of 1851, covered an area of 1.848 feet by 408 feet in prefabricate units of glass set in iron frames The Paris Exhibition of 1889 included both the widest span and the greatest height achieved so far with the Halle Des Machines, spanning 362 feet, and the Eiffel Tower 1,000 feet high However, these achievements were mocked by the artistic elite of Paris as expensive and ugly follies Iron, despite its structural advantages, had little aesthetic status The use of an exposed iron structure in the more traditional styles of architecture was slower to develop 55 What does the passage mainly discuss? A Advances in iron processing in the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries B The effects of the Industrial Revolution on traditional architectural styles C Advantages of stone and timber over steel as a building material D The evolution of the use of iron in architecture during the 1800's 56 The word "revolutionized" is closest in meaning to A quickly started B gradually opened C dramatically changed D carefully examined 57 According to the passage, iron was NOT used for beams, columns, and girders prior to the early eighteenth century because A all available iron was needed for other purposes B limited mining capability made iron too expensive C iron was considered too valuable for use in public buildings D the use of charcoal for refining ore produced poor quality iron 58 Iron replaced stone and timber in the building of bridges because iron was considered A more beautiful B new and modern C much stronger D easier to transport 59 The word "it" refers to A industrial architecture B internal iron skeleton C stone D strength 60 The word "surpassed" is closest in meaning to A imitated B exceeded C approached D included 61 According to paragraph 3, the architectural significance of the Halle Des Machines was its _ A wide span B great height C unequaled beauty D prefabricated unites of glass 62 How did the artistic elite mentioned in the passage react to the buildings at the Paris Exhibition? A They tried to copy them B They ridiculed them C They praised them D They refused to pay to see them 63 It can be inferred that the delayed use of exposed iron structures in traditional styles of architecture is best explained by the A impracticality of using iron for small, noncommercial buildings B association of iron architecture with the problems of the Industrial Revolution C general belief that iron offered less resistance to fire and harsh weather than traditional materials D general perception that iron structures were not aesthetically pleasing 64 The paragraph following the passage most probably discusses _ A the gradual inclusion of exposed iron in traditional styles of architecture B further improvements in iron processing methods C the return to traditional building materials for use in commercial structures D the decreased use of stone and timber as a building material SECTION B WRITING: Part I Finish each of the following sentences in such a way that it means the same as the sentence printed before it 65 It wasn’t necessary for you to buy so many chips as you did -> You needn’t 66 Much as he tried hard, he didn’t succeed in installing the software -> However 67 He lost his job because he was very lazy -> But 68 It was not until midnight that he could finish his homework -> Not until 69 If only I hadn’t bought the secondhand motorbike -> I regret Part II In about 140 words, write a paragraph about why is it important to protect our environment?
