One of the biggest trends in television in recent years has been the rise of “Reality
TV”. These shows, in which ordinary people are placed in unusual situations and then
filmed without a script, have become some of the highest rating shows on television.
Early programs of this genre, including Big Brother (from the Netherlands) and Survivor
(from the United States), have led to dozens of copycat programs in many different
countries. A common element to many of these programs is that a number of contestants

3


are placed in a closed environment in which they are filmed 24 hours a day, and every
week contestants are thrown off the show. What is it about these shows that makes them
so popular? Perhaps it is because viewers enjoy watching ordinary people with real
emotions being placed in extraordinary, situations. Or perhaps it is that people are really
voyeurs - they enjoy being a spy, looking secretly into other people’s lives.

A. interesting
B. unusual
C. popular

D. enjoyable

During the teenage years, many young people can at times be difficult to talk to.
They often seem to dislike being questioned. They may seem unwilling to talk about
their work in school. This is a normal development at this age, though it can be very
hard for parents to understand. It is part of becoming independent of teenagers trying to
be adult while they are still growing up. Young people are usually more willing to talk if
they believe that questions are asked out of real interest and not because people are
trying to check up on them.
Parents should do their best to talk to their sons and daughters about school work
and future plans. However, it is not a good idea that parents push teenagers to talk if they
do not want to. Parents should also watch for the danger signs: some young people in
trying to be adult may experiment with sex, drugs, alcohol, or smoking. Parents need to

8


watch for any signs of unusual behavior which may be connected with these and get
help if necessary.
36. This passage is taken from a __________.
A. handbook for parents
B. school timetable

C. teenage magazine
D. book for children
37. Why do adults sometimes find teenagers difficult to talk to?
A. because most teenagers are quiet.
B. because teenagers don't want to talk to their parents.
C. because teenagers think adults are not honest.
D. because most teenagers hate adults.
38. When can you expect a young person to be more talkative than usual?
A. When people talk to them because they are really interested and not yet checking up
on them
B. When adults give them a lot of money to spend.
C. When adults talk to them about something other than their work in school.
D. When adults talk to them about sex, alcohol and drugs.

A. cigarettes and alcohol are available everywhere.

It is said that most people have no more than 30 friends at any given time, and 400 over
the whole of their lives. However, on social networking sites, most users have about 150
friends. If these numbers are correct, then friendship means different things in
different situations.
One of the reasons for having more online friends than real friends at a certain point in
time is that online friendships do not require much time and energy: it is easy to accept
friendships and keep them forever. Another possibility is that it is difficult to say 'no'
when somebody asks us to be their friend online, even if we feel we don't really know
them. The fact that they ask us suggests that they do consider us a friend, which is a nice
feeling. Alternatively, they may be 'collectors' of online friends and just want to use us
to get a higher number of friends and appear to be popular.
Online friendships are quite easy, but in the real world decisions about friendships are
harder to make. There are no rules about friendship. There are no guidelines about how
to make friends, how to keep friendships going, and how to finish friendships if we
want to move on. People have very different opinions about this: some people would
die for their friends and they value them more than family. Others say that friends are
temporary, only there to help each other until they are no longer needed. If people with
such different views become friends, this can lead to problems.
Because of these different definitions of friendship, it is easy to be unhappy
about our friendships. We may want them to be deeper or closer, or we may want to have
more friends in our lives. Sometimes we simply do not have the time to develop our
friendships, or we fear we have left it too late in life to start. If we move to another
country or city, we have to find ways to make new friends again.
This dissatisfaction shows us how important friendships are for most of us. We
should not think that it could be too late to build friendships. We also need to understand

13


that the need to be around other people is one that is shared by many. Therefore, we

should not be too frightened about starting to talk to people who in the future may
become our friends: it is likely that they too would like to get closer to us. Remember
what people say: strangers are friends we have not met yet.
36. How many friends do the majority of people probably have?
A. 30 real friends or fewer
B. a minimum of 30 real friends
C. 150 internet friends
D. 400 internet friends over the course of their lives
37. It is difficult__________.
A. to believe the numbers about friendship.
B. to keep your friends happy.
C. to trust what you read on social networking sites.
D. to give a definition of 'friendship'.
38. Friendship means __________.
A. different things to different people.
B. dying for your friends if you need to.
C. helping each other until it is no longer necessary.
D. accepting people with different views
39. Sometimes people worry because __________.
A. they think that they have too many friends.
B. they spend too much time with friends
C. they think they are too old to make friends.
D. there are no guidelines about friendship
40.. Most of us __________.
A. are dissatisfied with our friends.
B. build friendships late in life.
C. are frightened to talk to strangers.
D. need to be with others.

People invent things to enhance their lives. Today, inventions are mostly
improvements of previous inventions. With technology, inventions are taking a shorter
and shorter time to complete.
One such invention is the camera. The time taken to invent the camera in the
sixteenth century was prolonged due to the lack of technology and scientific knowledge.
When inventors first tried to take a photograph in 1558, the image could not stay on the
paper permanently. It was only in 1837 that inventors managed to produce pictures that
did not fade away.
With the invention of the camera, further improvements were made and the first
underwater camera was invented in 1856. It was placed in a tightly sealed container.
However, when the contraption was underwater, the container broke before many
pictures were taken. It was only in the 1980s that a camera was made to be able to go
deep underwater without being damaged. Less than twenty years later, technology
allowed underwater cameras to take photographs in color and to go even deeper into the
water. The cameras even looked like a fish.
With better technology, an invention will never stay stagnant. People will be
relentless in their efforts at making improvements to an invention.
36. How are inventions of today different from those in the past?
A. They gradually enrich people’s lives.
B. They need less time to complete.

18



C. They have intention of being larger.
D. They are effectively used.
37. What happened to the image on the photograph of the first camera?
A. The image disappeared.
B. The image was different after a time period.
C. The color of image did not stay a long time.
D. The image could not remain on the paper for long.
38. How many years later did it take the inventors to produce the first underwater
camera after the first camera?
A. 321 years.
B. 279 years
C. 298 years
D. 389 years
39. The first underwater camera was________.
A. made after one improvement
B. put in a container
C. stuck to a box
D. covered with a seal
40. How was the underwater camera in the 1980s different from the previous?
A. It had the shape of fish.
B. It could take color photos and go deeper.
C. It could swim like á fish.
D. It took color pictures without going into water.

The giraffe is the tallest living animal. It can reach a height of more than 5.5 meters.
Giraffes live in eastern Africa. The scientific name of the giraffe is Giraffa
Camelopardalis.
Giraffes have a short body, but their legs and neck are very long. The coat is light
brown with reddish brown spots. Many giraffes have two short horns between the ears.
Giraffes have large nostrils and a good sense of smell. Giraffes have long tongues of
between 45 and 50 centimeters.
Giraffes are plant eaters. They can reach leaves at the top of trees. But they do not eat
grass. It is very hard for them to reach the ground because the neck is stiff. To drink, a
giraffe must spread its legs far apart to reach down.
Giraffes live in herds of up to twenty animals. They use their good eyesight to watch
for danger. Lions, cheetahs, and crocodiles are the giraffe's enemies. Giraffes will try to
gallop away from danger, but they can fight if necessary. They can run about 50
kilometers an hour.
A female giraffe gives birth to one calf at a time. The newborn can usually follow its
mother around within hours. Giraffes live about 20 to 25 years.
Giraffes are still common in eastern Africa. They are protected there inside national
parks. In Other places, however, hunting has reduced the number of giraffes.
