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 questions from 36 to 42. 

            Despite the fact that too much fat can be harmful, a moderate fat intake is actually essential to the maintenance of good health. Some of the symptoms of fat deficiency include flaking skin, emaciation, reduced functioning of the immune system, and fertility problems. Recent studies have linked fat-free diets to increased stress and aggression, and note that those who try to eliminate fat completely from their food intake may be at risk for developing eating disorders: a small amount of fat in a meal will produce a feeling of satiety which lasts much longer than the sensation of fullness produced by protein or carbohydrates. At least two teaspoons of fat per day is needed in order for the digestive system to absorb vitamins A, D, E and K, which are fat soluble. These vitamins are essential for healthy hair, skin, teeth, and eyes. Without the ability to absorb these vitamins, children run the risk of developmental and neurological disorders. Adults need these vitamins to manufacture fertility hormones. 

            Some types of fat actually help to reduce harmful cholesterol levels. Polyunsaturated fats such as corn, soybean, and sesame oil, and monounsaturated fats like chicken fat and olive oil, seem to lower blood cholesterol, while saturated fats – those found in red meat, dairy products, and tropical oils – seem to raise the level of the kind of cholesterol that accumulates as plaques on arterial walls. Paying attention to the type of fat consumed is just as important as reducing total fat intake.

Question 36: What did the paragraph preceding this passage most likely discuss?

            A. general health guidelines

            B. methods of reducing one's percentage of dietary fat

            C. moderate fat intake

            D. health problems linked to fat consumption

Question 37: What is the author's main purpose in the passage?

            A. To discuss some positive aspects of dietary fat.

            B. To compare three kinds of cholesterol.

            C. To prove that a low fat diet is inherently harmful.

            D. To analyze recent studies linking fat intake to disease.

Question 38: All of the following are mentioned as signs of fat deficiency EXCEPT_______ 

            A. flaky skin    B. fertility problems    C. a feeling of satiety D. reduced immunity

Question 39: According to this passage, the most harmful type of fat would be found in________  .

            A. ish and vegetables              B. fried chicken in soybean oil

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 questions from 43 to 50 

Seeing adults – and children – who simply refuse to be unglued from their cellphones, no matter where they happen to be, is very common. Cellphone users often seem to forget that others share the same planet, and the talkers can be completely insensitive to those around them – to the noticeable annoyance of non-cellphone users.

Cellphones have saved lives, increased business opportunities, and kept friendships going, but they have also been known to destroy the magic of the movies, make everyone at a restaurant turn around and stare, and bring many a meeting to an abrupt halt. People have even been known to carry their mobile phones to funerals!

Your cellphone is undoubtedly very important to you because it keeps you in touch with the hundreds of urgent things you have to do every day. If you are a frequent cellphone user, you will insist that these gadgets are, after all, supposed to be anywhere – anytime phones. Isn’t that why we call them mobile?

It is true that cellphones would not be of much use if you could not use them anywhere and anytime. And that is exactly why most cellphones come with a host of features you can use to ensure that disturbance to others is kept to a minimum. Even the most basic cellphones have a range of ring settings, with some sufficiently soft-toned not to annoy those around you. Some phones vibrate or flash a light to alert you, and some let out quiet little beeps. The voice mail option allows you to switch off and still no miss any calls or messages at all. So enjoy the benefits that cellphones bring, and at the same time, show consideration for others.

            B. are sensitive to the needs of others

            C. are not disturbed by others’ use of them

            D. may be irritated by the noise created by cellphone users

Question 46: Which feature allows cellphone users to be considerate of other people’s needs?

            A. Soft ringing or a flashing light indicates incoming calls.

            B. Calls can be received at any time.

            C. The phone can be taken anywhere.

            D. You can leave messages on other people’s cellphones.

            A. used freely by children and adults

            B. used as little as possible

            C. available for use at all times, with certain restrictions

            D. available for use at all times

Question 48: According to the passage, what is the main advantage of cellphones?

            A. They have different ring settings.

            B. You can leave messages on them.

            C. They are widely used in business.

            D. They can be used in many different places and at any time.

Question 49: Cellphones are beneficial because__________  .

            A. they can be used while eating out

            B. they can be used during meetings

            C. people bring them everywhere.

            D. they enable people to manage their busy schedules.

Question 50: What is the main point of this passage?

            A. Cellphones are an essential part of modern life.

            B. Cellphones can be adjusted to minimize disturbance to other people.

            C. Cellphones have great advantages, but users should be considerate.

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 question.

Shyness may not seem to be a serious complaint, but for some who suffer from it, it can become unbearable. Even talking to a small group of people you know can seem like an ordeal- it can feel as if you’ve been asked to give a speech on a topic you know very little about to a number of experts. You start to feel hot and shaky, your heart beats faster, your knees feel weak, you begin to stutter and the whole experience seems to last forever.

The fact of the matter is that shyness is something we often recognize in others: “blushing” is one of the more visible signs, for example. Yet we don’t judge someone harshly because of this. But shyness does mean that you are harder to approach, so you become more (14) isolated. As one shy person put it, “It’s like being in a prison, and it’s very hard to break out.”

Experts on the subject have come up with various possible solutions, and one has been singled out as being the key to success- namely, finding an interest in common with the other people. Spending a lot of time on the sidelines watching other people and envying them because they are much more outgoing doesn’t help; remembering that some of those people you most envy are probably shy themselves, does. The secret is how you deal with it. And experts have come up with four things you can do today to help. Firstly, you can start by listening to other people. You will find yourself getting interested in what they’re talking about and asking questions- and before you know it, you’ll be having a conversation.

Secondly, you could try asking neighbors if you can walk their dog. Like children, pets can be excellent icebreakers for conversations with passers-by. Thirdly, try joining a class to learn something like tap-dancing or flamenco, where people are likely to laugh a lot. You’ll feel relaxed, and also you’ll be much too busy concentrating on what you are doing to feel shy. Lastly, try telling yourself that it doesn’t matter if you say or do something silly. Most people make a fool of themselves every so often- and it’s not the end of the world if you do!

Question 8: One of the symptoms of shyness in a stressful situation is____

            A. pain in the knees                B. an increased heart rate

            C. sweating a lot                     D. excessive talkativeness

Question 9: Why do shy people become more reserved?

            A. Other people lack the patience to talk to them.

            B. They dread being judged by others

            C. Their social unease makes them more difficult to talk to.

            D. They see that others are shy too.

Question 10: The word “blushing” in paragraph 2 is closet meaning to _______

            A. smiling        B. going red    C. going green D. sweating

Question 11: What do experts believe is the essential measure to be taken?

            A. Discovering shared interests with others.

            B. Comparing yourself to other people.

            C. Studying others’ behavior in social situations.

            D. Finding out what makes other people shy.

Question 12: How can listening to others prove helpful in combating shyness?

            A. It’s the first step to getting into conversation.

            B. People will see you care about their interest.

            C. You develop useful psychological skills.

            D. It’s a visible sign of becoming less shy.

Question 13: It’s suggested in the text that a shy person should_____

            A. take up social hobby          B. learn to laugh more

            C. learn to relax                      D. help other people in the community

            A. says stupid things sometimes         B. makes jokes sometimes

            C. is self-conscious                 D. is foolish

Question 15: The major aim of the author of the text is to________

The Influence of Advertising on Pricing

Advertising makes an immense difference in the popularity of a product. Studies have shown that consumers usually pay more for advertised products than non-advertised products. As a result, the marketing and advertising industry is a multibillion-dollar-a-year business. Local commercials can cost as little as several hundred dollars to produce, while national companies have been known to spend hundreds of thousands of dollars on a single commercial. Interestingly, the source for these expensive commercials is the consumers who view the advertisements from the comfort of their living rooms. Companies influence the prices that consumers pay in two ways.

When consumers purchase any product, they are obviously paying for the cost of manufacturing the product. However, they are also paying for the advertising campaign devised to convince consumers to buy the product. The more costly the advertising campaign, the higher the price paid by consumers. Companies are allowed to set these high prices because consumers have shown that they will continue to pay them. For instance, a multinational chain of coffee shops significantly raised its prices a few years ago, due in no small part to an expensive national advertising campaign. While regular customers noticed and were not fond of the hike, one was quoted as saying, “I doubt it will make an impact [on consumers]. It won’t change my habit." Indeed, it did not; the company experienced record sales in spite of the fact its prices were higher than its competitors'.

Another way advertising tends to affect product pricing is seen in the arena of perceived value to the consumers. The perceived value is the worth that consumers assign to a product. Studies show that often the advertising for a product determines its value more than the quality or necessity of the product itself. One way a company may take advantage of this perceived value is by running commercials during prime time. These ads are usually much more expensive than others. For example, a national commercial that ran during a popular American show cost close to $745,000 to run for thirty seconds. If people watching the show perceive that the product is more valuable simply because it was advertised during prime time, they are often willing to pay higher prices. So, whether it is seen in the cost of the commercials or the advertiser-assigned value, it is obvious that advertising drives product pricing and directly affects consumers.

Question 11: The author mentions commercials running during prime time in order to ______.

            A. contrast effective advertising with unsuccessful products

            B. reflute the idea that consumers pay more for products they see on television

            C. explain how consumers justify paying higher prices for products

            D. provide a function of television advertising on a national level

Question 12: The author uses the chain of coffee shops as an example of _____.

            A. a costly advertising campaign that failed 

            B. the competitive nature of the advertising industry

            C. a means by which large businesses deceive consumers

            D. the acceptance of higher costs by consumers

Question 13: Which of the following is NOT true about the perceived value of a product?

            A. It is partially determined by the consumer.            B. It is influenced by advertising.

            C. It can be higher than the actual value.       D. It is the same as the true value.

Question 14: Which of the following can be inferred from paragraph 3?

            A. Price is not the only factor affecting buyer decisions.

            B. Consumers will pay less when they see expensive advertisements.

            C. The lowest-priced products are usually purchased the most.

            D. Consumers become angry when prices are raised too high.

Question 15: According to the passage, which of the following is NOT true about the coffee chain's price increase?

            B. The coffee chain raised prices so they could advertise more.

            C. Customers acknowledged the change in prices.

            D. The price increase did not change customers’ drinking habits.

Question 16: Which of the following is true about the effect of higher-priced ad campaigns?

            B. They increase the price consumers must pay.

            C. They are a response to consumer demand. 

            D. They result in competitor price matching.

Question 17: How do companies determine the price they charge for a product?

            A. By basing their prices on advertising costs and competitor prices

            B. By including the cost of advertising in the overall costs

            C. By determining the overall costs of making the product

            D. By choosing perceived value or manufacturing costs

Question 18: Which of the following can be inferred about pricing and advertising?

            A. Products that are not advertised cost more than advertised products.

            B. Companies selling higher-priced products usually advertise more.

            C. Customers will pay little for a non-advertised product.

            D. Local companies will not spend money on advertising.

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 6 to 12.

Although most universities in the United States are on a semester system, which offers classes in the fall and spring, some schools observe a quarter system comprised of fall, winter, spring, and summer quarters. The academic year, September to June, is divided into three quarters of eleven weeks each beginning in September, January, and March: the summer quarter, June to August, is composed of shorter sessions of vary length.There are several advantages and disadvantages to the quarter system. On the plus side, students who wish to complete their degrees in less than the customary four years may take advantage of the opportunity to study year round by enrolling in all four quarters. In addition, although most students begin their programs in the fall quarter, they may enter at the beginning of any other quarters. Finally, since the physical facilities are kept in operation year round, the resources are used effectively to serve the greatest number of students. But there are several disadvantages as well. Many faculty complain that eleven-week term is simply not enough for them to cover the material required by most college coursed. Students also find it difficult to complete the assignments in such a short period of time.In order to combine the advantages of the quarter system with those of the semester system some colleges and universities have instituted a three-term trimester system.

Brown bears are found in Alaska and western Canada. They are first cousins of the grizzly, each belonging to the species Ursus arctos. The chief difference in them is size, as brown bears on the average are slightly larger. A full-grown male may weigh 1,500 pounds and stand 9 to 10 feet tall. Like bears everywhere they are creatures of habit that tread the same trails year after year. Brown bears have three gaits: an even, deliberate one that takes them over rough or boggy ground at a steady clip, a quick shuffle, and a fast gallop. They are not only surprisingly fast, but also, for such huge beasts, amazingly inclines. Fishing the streams in summer, they pounce on swift-moving salmon and snatch them with almost simultaneous movements of their paws and mouths. Brown bears are excellent swimmers and love to loll and wallow in the water on warm days. They are also curious and playful. Most manifest a fear of humans, but Alaskans prefer not to test these creatures and usually carry noisemakers of some kind to warn the bears of their presence.

Question 15: The passage suggest that________.

            A. brown bears like to range over new territory

            B. brown bears catch salmon in quiet pools

            C. it would not be unusual see bear cross a deep river
