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 REALITY TELEVISION Reality television is genre of television programming which, it is claimed, presents unscripted dramatic or humorous situation, documents actual events, and features ordinary rather than professional actors It could be described as a form of artificial or “heightened” documentary Although the genre has existed in some form or another since the early years of television, the current explosion of popularity dates from around 2000 Reality television covers a wide range of television programming formats, from game or quiz shows which resemble the frantic, often demeaning program produced in Japan in the 1980s and 1990s (a modern example is Gaki no tsukai), to surveillance - or voyeurism - focused productions such as Big Brother Critics say that the term “reality television” is somewhat of a misnomer and that such shows frequently portray a modifies and highly influenced form of reality, with participants put in exotic location or abnormal situations, sometimes coached to act in certain ways by off-screen handlers, and with events on screen manipulated through editing and other postproduction techniques Part of reality television’s appeal is due to its ability to place ordinary people in extraordinary situations For example, on the ABC show, The Bachelor, an eligible male dates a dozen women simultaneously, traveling on extraordinary dates to scenic locales Reality television also has the potential to turn its participants into national celebrities, outwardly in talent and performance programs such as Pop Idol, though frequently Survivor and Big Brother participants also reach some degree of celebrity Some commentators have said that the name “reality television” is an inaccurate description for several styles of program included in the genre In competition- based programs such as Big Brother and Survivor, and other special-livingenvironment shows like The Real World, the producers design the format of the show and control the day-to-day activities and the environment, creating a completely fabricated world in which the competition plays out Producers specifically select the participants, and use carefully designed scenarios, challenges, events, and settings to encourage particular behaviors and conflicts Mark Burnett, creator of Survivor and other reality shows, has agreed with this assessment, and avoids the word “reality” to describe his shows; he has said, “I tell good stories It really is not reality TV It really is unscripted drama.” 25 In the first line, the writer says “it is claimed” because A they are agree with the statement B everyone agrees with the statement C no one agrees with the statement D they want to distance themselves from the statement 26 Reality television has A always been this popular B been popular since before 2000 C only been popular since 2000 D been popular since approximately 2000 27 Japan A is the only one place to produce demeaning TV shows B has produced demeaning TV shows copied elsewhere C produced Big Brother D invented surveillance focused productions 28 People have criticized reality television because A it is demeaning B it uses exotic locations C the name is inaccurate D it shows reality 29 Reality TV appeals to some because A it shows eligible males dating women B it uses exotic locations C it shows average people in exceptional circumstances D it can turn ordinary people into celebrities 30 Pop Idol A turns all its participants into celebrities B is more likely to turn its participants into celebrities than Big Brother C is less likely to turn its participants into celebrities than Big Brother D is a dating show 31 The term “reality television” is inaccurate A for all programs B just for Big Brother and Survivor C for talent and performance programs D for talent and performances programs 32 Producers choose the participants A on the ground of talent B only for special-living- environment shows C to create conflict among other things D to make a fabricated world 33 Paul

A The Earth’s movement around the Sun B The triangular arrangement of the Earth, Sun, and Moon C Seasonal changes in the weather D The gravitational pull of the Sun and the Moon when nearly in line with the Earth Question 59: The word correspondingly in line is closest in meaning to A similarly B interestingly C unusually D unpredictably Question 60: What is the main point of the first paragraph? A Despite the strength of the wind, it only moves surface water B The tides are the most powerful force to affect the movement of ocean water C Deep ocean water is seldom affected by forces that move water D The waves created by ocean currents are very large Question 61: The words In reality in line are closest in meaning to A characteristically B similarly C surprisingly D actually Question 62: Where in the passage does the author mention movements of ocean water other than those caused by tides?

the majority of the household work – if their husbands did remaider Reseach has shown that, if levels increase beyond these percentages, women become unhappy and anxious, and feel they are unimportant After marriage, a woman is reported to increase her household workload by 14 hours per week, but for men the amount is just 90 minutes So the division of labor becomes unbalanced, as a man’s share increases much less than the woman’s It is the inequality and loss of repect, not the actual number of hours, which leads to axiety and depression The reseach describes housework as thankless and unfulfilling Activities included in the study were cooking, cleaning, shopping, doing laundry, washing up and childcare Women who have jobs report that they feel overworked by these chores in addition to their professional duties In contrast, full-time homemakers frequently anticipate going back to work when the children grow up Distress for this group is cuased by losing the teamwork in the marriage In cases where men perform most of the housework, results were similar The men also became depressed by the imbalance of labor The research showed that the least distressed people are those who have equal share, implying that men could perform significantly more chores and even benefit from this The research concludes “ Everybody benefits from sharing the housework Even for women keeping house, a share division of labor is important If you decide to stay at home to raise the children, you don’t want to become the servant of the house” (Adapted from LouisHarrision & Caroline Cushen, 2013) Question 30: The word remaider.in paragraph is closest in meaning to A what is done B what is fulfilled C what is left D what is share Question 31: Athough women think men should share the housework, those who don’t have paid job agree to share of the chores A 14% B 37% C 70% D 80% Question 32: After getting married, A women kave a bigger house B men more housework C men less housework D women twice as much housework Question 33: Working women A want their partners to an equal share B are anxious and depressed C 80% of the household D would prefer not to have a job Question 34: Women who not have a job become depressed A if they have to more than half of the housework B because they have no respect C when their husbands not hepl them D if their husbands 29% of the chores Question 35: The word norm in paragraph is closest in meaning to A changing thing B strange thing C usual thing D unequal thing Question 36: According to the passage, a good relationship is the one in which A men more housework than women B women and men divide the housework equally C women 80% of the housework D women 14 hours of housework Question 37: Objects of the survey were A people of a wide range of ages B married people C working people D unemploy people Question 38: The word estinated in paragraph is closest in meaning to A wanted B divided C hoped D guessed Question 39: What is the most suitable heading for the passage?
