The human brain, remember, is programmed to slip into alarm mode when danger looms Danger looms for someone, somewhere at every moment Exposing ourselves to such input without respite and without perspective cannot be anything other than a source of chronic stress 66 According to the passage, which of the following has contributed to the intense nature of twenty-first-century stress? A An overabundance of special news B The degree to which stress affects our life C Our inability to control ourselves D Our continual exposure to the media 67 In the past, we had less news of distant people and lands because A means of communication and transprotation were not yet invented B the printing press changed the situation to slowly C printing, transportation, and telecommunications were not developed D most people lived in distant towns and villages 68 The pronoun “them” in paragraph refers to _ A TV channels B television sets C TV news D cable access 69 The word “traumatic” in paragraph is closest in meaning to _ A boring B fascinating C upsetting D exciting 70 According to the passage, when there is not enough actual breaking news, broadcasts _ A are full of dangerous diseases such as flu B send out live newscasts paired with text across the screen C send out frightening stories about potential dangers D are forced to publicize an alarming increase in crime 71 As stated in the passage, a flu outbreak and the bogus claims of a wrinkle cream tend to A involve natural and man-made disasters B be treated with equal alarm LEARNING ONLINE 2020 LEARNING ONLINE 2020 C be scarce breaking news D be warmly welcomed by the public 72 Which of the following is NOT true, according to the passage? A The news that is reported to us is not good news B Many people are under stress caused by the media C Many TV channels supply the public with breaking news D The only source of stress in our modern life is the media 73 The word “slip” in paragraph is closest in meaning to A release B bring C fail D fall 74 According to the passage, our continual exposure to bad news without perspective is obviously A the result of human brain’s switch to alarm mode B a source of chronic stress C the result of an overabundance of good news D a source of defects in human brain 75 What is probably the best title for this passage? A Effective Ways to Beat Stress B More Modern Life - More Stress C The Media - A Major Cause of Stress D Developments in Telecommunications Part 3: Questions 76 – 85 (2.0 points - 0.2/ each) Read the text and fill in one word which best fits each gap The honey bee is a very unusual kind of insect (76) Unlike other insects which live alone, the honey bee lives as a member of a community These bees live (77) together in what is known as a bee colony The head of the colony is called the (78) queen bee She is larger than the rest of the bees Her main task in the colony is to (79) lay eggs Most of the other bees are the worker bees These bees collect nectar and pollen (80) from flowers The nectar that is carried by the worker bees is deposited on the hive and then converted into honey The worker bees also help look (81) after the young bees as soon as the eggs are hatched, the worker bees feed the young bees (82) with pollen and nectar The third (83) type of bee found in the colony is the drone or male bee The main task of such a bee is to mate with a new queen The queen bee has a life span of about three years During this period, she would have laid more than (84) half a million eggs When the queen bee is dying, a new queen would be groomed This new queen would eventually take (85) over the 'duties' of the old queen when the latter dies SECTION IV: WRITING (4.0 points) Part 1: Questions from 86 to 90.(1 point- 0.2/ each) LEARNING ONLINE 2020 LEARNING ONLINE 2020 Finish each of the following sentences in such a way that it means the same as the sentence printed before it 86 He told me that it was wrong of me to leave early  He criticized me for leaving/having left early 87 It is believed that his father died in a car accident  His father is believed to have died in a car accident 88 When the Minister was asked about the strike, he declined to comment  On being asked about the strike, the Minister declined to comment 89 As she grows older, she becomes increasingly cheerful  The older she grows, the more cheerful she becomes 90 Although Jack took a taxi, He still arrived late for the conference  In spite of (Jack’s) taking a taxi, he arrived late for the conference  In spite of the fact that he took a taxi, Jack still arrived late for the conference Part 2: Questions from 91 to 92.(1 points - 0.2/ each) Complete the second sentence so that it has a similar meaning to the first sentence, using the word given Do not change the word given 91 In the end, I felt I had been right to leave the club regrets  In the end, I had no regrets about having left the club 92 The company didn’t decide to replace this model no  The company had no intention of replacing this model 93 Paula said I had caused the accident for  Paula blamed me for causing/having caused the accident 94 She has always had a good relationships with her children got  She has always got on well with her children 95 You can get Tim to lend you his car but you won't succeed point  There is no point in getting Tim to lend you his car LEARNING ONLINE 2020
