Jean spent her first few years in Hooper and her family moved to Otsego early in her life.
She was only ten when her father died unexpectedly, leaving her mother to raise and support their
family alone. Her mother soon went to work outside the home to provide for the family, and Jean,

While still in high school, Jean met a young man named Charles "Chuck" Holly, at a dance in
Alamo; and they were quite taken with each other. Over the next few years, their love for each
other blossomed and they were married on February 24, 1953, while Jean was still in school. At
the time, Chuck was serving his country in the military, and had come home
<i>on leave</i>

My aunt is one of those people who can talk to anyone about anything. If she goes to a party
where she doesn't know any of the people, she just walks up to the first person that she sees and
introduces herself. And yet she doesn't seem to talk about deeply important things like politics or
religion. She always
<i><b>starts off</b></i>
on something very obvious like the other person's job. Very soon
she's talking as if she's known the other person for years. I asked her once what her secret was.
She said that the most important thing in a conversation was listening. People love to talk about
themselves, so if you allow them to do so, it's very easy to keep a conversation going. You have to
listen very carefully and ask questions. And you have to look interested, too. So don't keep looking
at other things in the room while you're talking to someone.
Another thing that I've noticed is that she only pays people compliments. She says: “I like
your hair. Which hairdresser do you go to?” or “You look very well. Have you been on holiday?”
Friendly messages like this seem to provide an easy way into a conversation.
Question 41. According to my aunt, the most important thing in a conversation was__________.
A. speaking
B. discussing
C. looking
D. listening
Question 42. At parties where she does not know anybody, my aunt normally__________.

Question 43. My aunt thinks that it's very easy to keep a conversation going if you__________.
A. let people talk about themselves
B. let people hear about yourself
C. talk about politics or religion
D. ask people about their secrets
Question 44. What should you NOT do when you have a conversation with someone?
A. Looking very interested in his or her story
B. Looking at other things in the room
C. Listening very carefully and asking questions D. Paying him or her compliments
Question 45. According to the passage, my aunt often starts a conversation by talking about
________. A. the other person's wealth
B. the other person's health

<i><b>Read the passage carefully and choose the correct answer marked A, B, C, or D.</b></i>
BODY LANGUAGE AND CULTURAL DIFFERENCES
The body language people use often communicates more about their feelings than the
words they are saying. We use body movements, hand gestures, facial expressions, and changes in
our voice to communicate with each other. Although some body language is universal, many
gestures are culturally specific and may mean different things in different countries.
If you want to give someone the nod in Bulgaria, you have to nod your head to say no and
shake it to say yes – the exact opposite of what we do! In Belgium, pointing with your index finger
or snapping your fingers at someone is very rude.
In France, you shouldn’t rest your feet on tables or chairs. Speaking to someone with your
hands in your pockets will only make matters worse. In the Middle East, you should never show
the soles of your feet or shoes to
<i><b>others</b></i>
as it will be seen as a grave insult. When eating, only use
your right hand because they use their left hands when going to the bathroom.
In Bangladesh, the ‘thumbs-up’ is a rude sign. In Myanmar, people greet each other by
clapping, and in India, whistling in public is considered rude.
In Japan, you should not blow your nose in public, but you can burp at the end of a meal to
show that you have enjoyed it. The ‘OK’ sign (thumb and index finger forming a circle) means
‘everything is good’ in the West, but in China it means nothing or zero. In Japan, it means money,
and in the Middle East, it is a rude gesture.
Question 36. It is mentioned in the passage that many gestures___________.
A. may mean different things in different countries
B. are not used to communicate our feelings C. can be used to greet each other in public
D. are used in greeting among men and women
Question 37. People nod their head to say no in___________.
A. Belgium
B. Bulgaria
C. France
D. Japan

A. when going to the bathroom
B. when preparing the meal
C. to put in their pockets
D. to clean their tables and chairs
Question 39. Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage?

B. In Belgium, snapping your fingers at someone is very rude.
C. In China, the ‘OK’ sign means money

(42)___________ message is sent through words, with remaining 93% sent nonverbal (43)___________.

In 1988, for the first time in British history, a National Curriculum was introduced. The
National Curriculum tells pupils which subjects they have to study, what they must learn and
when they have to take assessment tests.
Between the ages of 14 and 16, pupils study for their GCSE (General Certificate of
Secondary Education) exams. Pupils must take English Language, Maths and Science for GCSE, as
well as a half GCSE in a foreign language and Technology. In addition, they must also be taught
Physical Education, Religious Education and Sex Education, although they do not take exams in
these subjects.
At the age of 16, pupils can leave school. If pupils stay on, they usually take A (Advanced)
levels, AS (Advanced Supplementary) level or GNVQs (Greater National Vocational Qualifications).
It is quite common to combine, for example, two A levels with one AS level, or one A level with one
GNVQ. Pupils taking A levels study traditional subjects, such as French, Physics or History. To go to
university, pupils usually need two or three A levels.
</div>

There are books with fairy tales in many countries. Often the same stories are known and
repeated in many languages. Some of the things that happen in these stories are remarkable,
although not as remarkable as things that are truly happening in medicine and science today.
Most fairy tales begin with “Once upon a time” and end with “They lived happily ever after”,
so we will begin in the same way.
Once upon a time there was a girl called Cinderella who did all the work in the kitchen
while her lazy sister did nothing.
One night, her sister went to a
<i><b>ball</b></i>
at the palace. Cinderella was left home, very sad. After a
time her fairy godmother appeared and told Cinderella that she could go to the ball- but to return
home by midnight.
So she went to the ball in a beautiful dress in a wonderful coach. She danced with the
prince but at midnight she ran back home, leaving one of her shoes on the floor. The prince
wanted to see her again and went to every house in the capital until he found that the shoe was
the right size for Cinderella. She and the price were married and lived happily ever after.
Question 46. Books with fairy are found in ________________.

<i><b>Choose the option marked A, B, C or D that best completes the following questions.</b></i>
One of the greatest advantages of robots is that they can work in situations that are
dangerous or harmful for human workers. For example, the continuous smell of paint has a
harmful effect on painters, but it doesn't
<i>"bother" </i>
a robot. Robots can work in nuclear power
plants and in undersea research stations that might be dangerous for humans. Already, robots are
working in the plastics industry and in chemical and industrial equipment industries. One of the
most common uses of robots is still in automobile factories. They can do the heavy, unpleasant, or
dangerous work. These kinds of industrial robots are not usually
<i>"mobile". </i>
The work they need to
do is brought to them, like cars on an assembly line, for example.
The robot industry is a big business. By the middle of the 1990s, Japan' led the world in
robot production with more than 71,000 industrial robots at work. Both the United States and
Japan, as well as other countries, continue to develop more advanced robots. Robots can now be
made to perform more complex jobs. Robots can make decisions while they are working and learn
from their mistakes. Robots can now see with TV camera "eyes." They can easily hear and can even
speak using a voice made by a computer. But it is difficult to make a robot "understand." Thinking
and understanding are very human qualities. The robots of the future will probably be very
complex. They will be able to perform many humanlike tasks. Robots and other technology will
make the future a very interesting place!
Question 41. We can infer from the passage that by the middle of the 1990s__________.
A. only Japan had used robots in production
B. Japan and the USA were the only countries to use robots
C. some countries had used robots in industrial production
D. Japan led the world in production thanks to robots
Question 42. Which of the following are robots NOT be able to do?
A. To speak using a voice made by a computer
B. To think and understand
C. To make decisions at work
D. To learn from mistakes
Question 43. According to the passage, which of the following is NOT true about the robots of the
future?
A. They will probably be very complicated.
B. They will be able to do humanlike tasks.
C. They will contribute to making the future more interesting.
D. They will replace human workers in all kinds of work.
Question 44. Which of the following is closest in meaning to the word
<i>"bother" </i>
in the first
paragraph? A. cancel
B. change
C. upset
D. terminate
Question 45. Which of the following can

American businessman, suggested that Mars contained life. He was fascinated by Mars. He spent
23 years studying it. He was so (47)___________ involved in the search for Martian life that he built

(49)___________ Mars. He also thought that the lines were built by intelligent life. There was also the

Computer programmer David Jones earns £35,000 a year designing new computer games,
yet he cannot find a bank prepared to let him have a cheque card. Instead, he has been told to wait
another two years, until he is 18.
The 16-year-old works for a small firm in Liverpool, where the problem of most young
people of his age is finding a job. David's firm releases two new games for the expanding home
computer market each month. But David's biggest headache is what to do with his money.
Despite his salary, earned by inventing new programs within tight schedules, with bonus
payments and profit-sharing, he cannot drive a car, take out a mortgage, or obtain credit cards.
He lives with his parents in their council house in Liverpool, where his father is a bus driver. His
company has to pay £150 a month in taxi fares to get him the five miles to work and back every
day because David cannot drive.
David got his job with the Liverpool-based company four months ago, a year after leaving
school with six O-levels and working for a time in a computer shop. "I got the job because the
people who run the firm knew 1 had already written some programs," he said.
"I suppose £35,000 sounds a lot but actually that's being pessimistic. I hope it will come to
more than that this year." He spends some of his money on records and clothes, and gives his
mother £20 a week. But most his spare time is spent working.
"Unfortunately, computing was not part of our studies at school," he said. "But 1 had been
studying it in books and 'magazines for four years in my spare time. 1 knew what 1 wanted to do
and never considered staying on at school. Most people in this business are fairly young, anyway."
David added: "I would like to earn a million and 1 suppose early retirement is a possibility.
You never know when the market might disappear."
Question 41. Why is David different from other young people at his age?
A. He earns an extremely high salary.
B. He is not unemployed.
C. He does not go out much.
D. He lives at home with his parents.
Question 42. David's greatest problem is___________.
A. Making the banks treat him as an adult. B. inventing computer games.
C. spending his salary.
D. learning to drive.
Question 43. He was employed by the company because___________.
A. he had worked in a computer shop.
B. he had written some computer programs.
C. he works very hard.
D. he had learnt to use computers at school.
Question 44. He left school after taking O-levels because___________.
A. he did not enjoy school.
B. he wanted to work with computers and staying at school did not help him.
C. he was afraid of getting too old to start computing.
D. he wanted to earn a lot of money.

The future role of women can be looked at more optimistically. Nowadays, there seems
(36)_________ recognition of the vital role women play in society and more status is given to
women. Overall, excellent progress has been made (37)_________ education. This has played a
powerful role for women self-esteem. It demonstrates women’s intellectual abilities to gain
expertise in the field of their choice. However, this progress has still to be reflected in the job
market. Since a more educated society is good for industry and society (38)_________ a whole, it is
even more urgent for women to gain an acceptable status in their profession. The message is that
women have the ability to change their roles and that they will demand to have the means to do it.
It is (39)_________ accepted by the new generation of young men and women that co-operation and
mutual aid are far more productive than the divider camp of men and women. Society is changing
and with it the role of men and women. In many fields women have come a long way from just
their roles as mothers and homemakers. They no longer think that children rearing and home
management are their (40)_________ duties.

<i><b>Read the passage and choose the best answers among A, B, C, or D provided. </b></i>
Until the 19
th
<sub> century, the denial of equal rights to women met with only occasional protest</sub>
and drew little attention from most people. Because most women lacked the educational and
economic resources that would enable them to challenge the prevailing social order, women
generally accepted their inferior status as their only option. At this time, women shared these
disadvantages with the majority of working class men, as many social, economic, and political
rights were restricted to the wealthy elite. In the 19
th
<sub> century, as governments in Europe and</sub>
North America began to draft new laws guaranteeing equality among men, significant numbers of
women – and some men – began to demand that women be accorded equal rights as well.
At the same time, the Industrial Revolution in Europe and North America further divided
the roles of men and women. Before the Industrial Revolution most people worked in farming or
crafts-making, both of which took place in or near the home. Men and women usually divided the
numerous tasks among themselves and their children. Industrialization led male workers to seek
employment outside of the home in factories and other large-scale enterprises. The growing split
between home and work reinforced the idea that women’s “rightful place” was in the home, while
men belonged in the public world of employment and politics.
Organized efforts by women to achieve greater rights occurred in two major waves. The
first wave began around the mid-19
th
<sub>century, when women in the United States and elsewhere</sub>
