This is fine if the child shows a real interest but forcing a child could be counter-productive if sheisn't ready. Wise parents will have a (37)_attitude and take the lead from their child. What they should provide is a selection of (38)_toys, books and other activities. Nowadays there is plenty of good (39)_available for young children, and of course, seeing plenty of books in use about the house will also (40)_them to read.Of course, books are no longer the only source of stories and information. There is also a huge range of videos, which can reinforce and extend the pleasure a child finds in a book and are (41)_valuable in helping to increase vocabulary and concentration. Television gets a bad review as far as children are concerned, mainly because too many spend too much time watching programmes not intended for their age (42)_. Too many television programmes induce an incurious, uncritical attitude that is going to make learning much more difficult. However, (43)_ viewing of programmes designed for young children can be useful. Just as adults enjoy reading a book after seeing it serialised on television, so children will pounce on books which (44)_their favourite television characters, and videos can add a new (45)_to a story known from a book.2 Question 36: A. scarcely B. rarely C. slightly D. reallyQuestion 37: A. cheerful B. contented C. relaxed D. hopefulQuestion 38: A. bright B. thrilling C. energetic D. stimulatingQuestion 39: A. material B. sense C. produce D. amusementQuestion 40: A. provoke B. encourage C. provide D. attractQuestion 41: A. properly B. worthily C. perfectly D. equallyQuestion 42: A. set B. band C. group D. limitQuestion 43: A. cautious B. choice C. approved D. discriminatingQuestion 44: A. illustrate B. extend C. feature D. possessQuestion 45: A. revival B. dimension C. option D. existenceRead 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 from 46 to 55.Herman Melville, an American author best known today for his novel Moby Dick, was actually more popular during his lifetime for some of his other works. He traveled extensively and used the knowledge gained during his travels as the basis for his early novels. In 1837, at the age of eighteen, Melville signed as a cabin boy on a merchant ship that was to sail from his Massachusetts home to Liverpool, England. His experiences on this trip served as a basis for the novel Redburn (1849). In 1841, Melville set out on a whaling ship headed for the South Seas. After jumping ship in Tahiti, he wandered around the islands of Tahiti and Moorea. This South Sea island sojourn was a backdrop to the novel Omoo (1847). After three years away from home, Melville joined up with a U.S. naval frigate that was returning to the eastern United States around Cape Horn. The novel White Jacket (1850) describes this lengthy voyage as a navy seaman.With the publication of these early adventure novels, Melville developed a strong and loyal following among readers eager for his tales of exotic places and situations. However, in 1851, with the publication of Moby Dick, Melville's popularity started to diminish. Moby Dick, on one level the saga of the hunt for the great white whale, was also a heavily symbolic allegory of the heroic struggle of humanity against the universe. The public was not ready for Melville's literary metamorphosis from romantic adventure to philosophical symbolism. It is ironic that the novel that served to diminish Melville's popularity during his lifetime is the one for which he is best known today.

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 56: What does the passage mainly discuss?A. The economic impact of air pollution. B. What constitutes an air pollutant.C. How much harm air pollutants can cause. D. The effects of compounds added to the atmosphere. Question 57: The word "adversely" in the first paragraph is closest in meaning to _______.A. negatively B. quickly C. admittedly D. considerably Question 58: It can be inferred from the first paragraph that _______.A. water vapor is an air pollutant in localized areasB. most air pollutants today can be seen or smelledC. the definition of air pollution will continue to changeD. a substance becomes an air pollutant only in cities Question 59: The word "These" in the second paragraph is closest in meaning to_.A. the various chemical reactionsB. the pollutants from the developing EarthC. the compounds moved to the water or soilD. the components in biogeochemical cyclesQuestion 60: 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.4 C. They are less harmful to living beings than other pollutants.D. They have existed since the Earth developed. Question 61: According to the passage, human-generated air pollution in localized regions _______.A. can be dwarfed by nature's output of pollutantsB. can overwhelm the natural system that removes pollutantsC. will damage areas outside of the localized regionsD. will react harmfully with natural pollutantsQuestion 62: The word "localized" in the third paragraph is closest in meaning to _______.A. specified B. circled C. surrounded D. encircled Question 63: 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 B. it is in a localized areaC. the natural level is also known D. it can be calculated quicklyQuestion 64: The word "detectable" in the third paragraph is closest in meaning to_.A. beneficial B. special C. measurable D. separableQuestion 65: Which of the following is best supported by the passage?A.
