I. Read the text and then mark these sentences True(T), False (F),

or don’t know (?). (2 marks) As nanny, cook, cleaner, laundress, shopper, dishwasher, driver, gardener, and seamstress, she has one of the most demanding jobs in Britain today. And paying someone else to do the chores which take the average housewife 71 hours a week would cost £ 349, it was revealed yesterday. At over £18,000 a year that more than the earnings of 70 per cent of the population, including train drivers, firemen, prison officers, and social workers. Looking after a youngster less than a year old takes a housewife into an even higher pay league. According to a survey, she deserves £ 457 a week-at nearly £ 24,000 a year, the same as teachers, engineers, and chemists. Researchers put a price on each chore, then calculated how long the average person takes doing them. They found housewives spend an average 70.0 hours a week on domestic duties- with looking after the children (17.9 hours) and cooking and cleaning (12.3 hours each) the most time-consuming. A wife with a part-time job still works an average of 59 hours a week at home. Those in full-time employment put in longer hours at home than in the workplace. The good news is that these hours decline sharply as children get older. While the average mother with a child under one puts in 90 hours weekly, the figure drops to 80 hours from one to four and to 66 hours from five to ten. Mother-of- four Karen Tudor-Williams, from Reading, said last night: “Wages aren’t practical, but the government should recognize the value of housework, perhaps through the tax system. Running a house takes a lot of time and most husbands don’t appreciate this. They say they do they DIY jobs, but my husband only puts a shelf up now and again. He never cleans the loo -that’s the real test.”

Single parent Anne Neals from North-west London said: “ The Government should pay women wages. It’s the husband’s employer who benefits from the work that women do at home.”1. _____ The average housewife works nearly71 hours a week.2._____Seventy per cent of the working population earn £18,000 a year.3._____Train drivers earn the same as prison officers.4._____Teachers earn about £24,000 a year.5._____Looking after children takes up most time.6._____Wives with jobs spend more time on housework than on their jobs.7._____The average mother with a child under one works 95 hours a week.8._____Keren Tudor-Williams thinks that the government should pay women wages.9._____Her husband helps with a lot of housework.10._____Anne Neal thinks that husbands’ employers should pay housewives.

SECTION B: READING COMPREHENSION (2 marks)

1. Read the text and then circle A, B, C or D After a cold, snowy winter, many people look forward to the long hot days of summer. The normal heat of summer can be pleasant. However, it’s important to be aware that excessive – that is too much – heat can be dangerous. There are other summer weather dangers, for example, tornadoes, lightning, and floods, but excessive heat kill more people each year than any of these. According to meteorologists, a heat wave is a period of excessive heat that lasts two days or more. A heat wave stresses people and can cause illnesses. These illnesses include heat cramps, heat exhaustion, and heat stroke. The people who are at the greatest risk during heat waves are the elderly, babies, and those with serious diseases. High humidity can make the effects of heat even more harmful. As humidity increases, the air seems warmer than it actually is because it’s more difficult for the body to cool itself through the evaporation of perspiration. During heat waves, meteorologists use the heat index to determine the level of danger. The heat index measures how hot it really feels when high humidity is added to the actual air temperature. As an example, if the air temperature is 95 F and the humidity is 35 %, the heat index is 98 F. But if the air temperature is 95 F and the humidity is 70%, the heat index is 124 F. Doctors say that even young, healthy people can die of heat stroke if they exercise outside when the heat index is high. During a heat wave, it’s best to take it easy, drink plenty of water, and stay out of the heat as much as possible.

A. excessive heat

B. a stormC. a stress on peopleD. a summer weather danger

5. A meteorologist means_______________A. a doctorB. a weather scientistC. a space scientistD. a dangerous weather condition

6. The heat index measures_______________A. the amount of moisture in the airB. air temperatureC. a person’s body temperatureD. the temperature the body feel when heat and humidity are

combined 7. Based on the information in the passage, which statement is true?

A. Young, healthy people are more likely to die from excessive heat than elderly people are.

B. The elderly, babies and people with serious diseases are mostly to die from excessive heat, but it can kill young, healthy people, too.

SECTION B: READING COMPREHENTION 1. Read the passage and then circle A, B, C or D. (2 MARKS) How do you react to the taste of different food, like coffee or lemon? Do they have a flavor that you like? Or do they taste very strong to you? Why do people react differently to different flavors? We all know that different people have different food preferences. Researchers have discovered some reasons for these differences. Your culture and your life experience are partly responsible for your preferences for certain foods. Your food references are also partly genetic. (Your genetic preferences are the one that you were born with.) In order to discover people’s genetic preferences, researchers use a chemical called PROP. People taste it and respond to the taste. To some people, PROP has no flavor. The researchers classify these people as “non-tasters.” To other people, the flavor of PROP is a little bitter, or sharp. These people are “tasters.” Then there are the people who can’t stand the flavor of PROP. They find it to be unbearably bitter. These people are the “super-tasters.” Tasters have more taste buds on their tongues than non-tasters do, and super-tasters have many more taste buds than tasters do. This explains why super-tasters are more sensitive to PROP and to the flavors in certain foods. So if you think the flavor in coffee, grapefruit juice, and broccoli are very strong, you maybe a “super-taster.”

1. The topic of the reading passage is__________A. the flavor of coffeeB. becoming a super-tasterC. Differences in people’s taste sensitivityD. research in the flavor of different foods

2. The main idea of the reading is that___________A. there are people who like different foodsB. there are cultural and genetic reasons for the differences in

3. The meaning of genetic preferences is ___________A. preferences for certain foodsB. preferences researchers have discoveredC. The preferences of some peopleD. the preferences that people are born with

4. What is PROP?

A. a chemicalB. something that people are born withC. a discoveryD. a researcher

5. Why do researchers use PROP?A. because it has no flavorB. to find out the responses to food people were born withC. to discover the flavors in certain foodsD. because people like its flavor

6. A food that is bitter has___________A. no flavorB. little flavorC. a coffee flavorD. a sharp flavor

SECTION B: READING COMPREHENTION 1. Read the article and then circle A, B, C or D. This week, I will be writing about a topic near and dear to my heart as well as the heart of my children. Don’t underestimate the power or value of children’s literature or “kiddie lit” as it is sometimes referred. Many individuals find it surprising that children’s literature, even books with little text, frequently encompass social themes that span from environmental studies to psychology or sociology. For example, “The Giving Tree” by Shel Silverstein is a very simple but elegant black and white picture book that tells the story of a boy and a tree that are mutually dependent upon one another. As the story unfolds, the man exploits the tree, while the tree remains gracious and benevolent towards the man. This book makes a powerful statement concerning man’s disregard and downright callousness towards the environment.

Judith Viorst, a satirist, has written a charming picture book entitled “Alexander and the Terrible, Horrible, No Good,Very Bad Day.” Her work, illustrated with black and white drawings, deal with the frustrations confronting a very young boy. Through the voice of a child, she reveals the emotional issues impacting children including sibling rivalry, parental approval, and unrealistic teacher expectations. This book is invaluable for those wishing to study the psychological makeup of young children, mainly boys but also girls. Another book with a minimal amount of print worth checking out is “A chair for My Mother” by Vera Williams. The story of a family who has lost all of their belongings in a fire is told, in part, through brightly colored illustrations accompanied by text. The community pulls together to get the family back on their feet. In addition, the family helps itself reach a goal through hard work and stick–to-itiveness. This book addresses some key sociological support systems, including the extended family and the community. So the next time you are in a bookstore or library, take a deep breath and a moment to stop and browse the children’s book section.

1. What is the main topic of this article?A. Children’s LiteratureB. Remedies for Social ProblemsC. Environmental StudiesD. None of the above

2. How does the writer of the article feel about children’s literature?A. The writer believes that it is a frivolous genre that should be

dismissed.B. The writer believes that it has a great deal of merit.C. It isn’t clear.D. The writer feels that it should be rejected from people’s hearts

3. In the first paragraph the words mutually dependent are used. In this context, what does mutually dependent mean?

A. Both sides do NOT need one another.B. One side needs the other.C. Both sides need one another.D. Every one is dependent upon the environment.

4. which book deals with issues impacting the environment?A. “The Giving Tree”B. “A Chair for My Mother”C. Both A and BD. None of the above

5. Which books are illustrated with black and white drawings?A. “The Giving Tree”B. “Alexander and the Terrible, Horrible, No Good, Very Bad Day”

C. “A Chair for My Mother”D. A and B

6. According to the article, what can one assume?A. The writer had some familiarities with children’s literature.B. The writer had no familiarities with children’s literature.C. The writer doesn’t want to read any more children’s booksD. The writer checks out a lot of books from the library.

7. What did Judith Viorst, a mother herself, write?A. a book using a mother’s voiceB. a book only suitable for mothers to readC. a book using the “voice” of a childD. a book that could never have been written by a satirist

8. What was the psychological pressure, or pressures, mentioned in the Judith Viorst’s book?

A. sibling rivalryB. parental approvalC. teacher satisfactionD. A and B but not C

SECTION B: READING COMPREHENTION 1. Read the article and then indicate whether each statement True (T) or False (F). (2 marks) Have you ever thought about where you should sit on an plane? It is important to book your seat early so that you can select a seat that best serves your needs. Individuals traveling in 1st class and business class usually need to think about whether they want an aisle seat or to sit next to a window or next to the bulkhead, or wall. If you are stuck in the economic section of the aircraft you must still consider whether you want a window, aisle, or a seat next the bulkhead. You must also take into account many different factors. You should decide whether or not you want to be in the front or rear section of the aircraft. The advantages of being near the front of the plane is that you will be able to board and deplane quickly. However, if you want to get an empty seat next to you, you should get a seat towards the rear, since people are assigned seats from the front to the rear. Please don’t be discouraged if you end up with a center or middle seat since most airlines have middle seats there are a little bit wider than the window or aisle seats.

1.______ This short article was written by someone who is unfamiliar with air travel.

2. ______A bulkhead is not considered to be a wall.3. ______This article is about seat selection in both the economy and

business or 1st class sections of an airplane.4. ______According to the article, if you are sitting in the economy section

of a plane, you always want to sit towards the front of the section.5. ______Seats are assigned from the rear of the aircraft forward.

Ordinary houses are full of hazardous waste. The most important hazardous waste in the homes in batteries. When you throw them out with your other garbage, they break open at the landfill. The poison inside them moves through rain water and other liquids to the bottom of the landfill. Then it can pollute the natural water in the ground. We should use rechargeable batteries. Another hazardous waste in homes is motor oil. Don’t throw old motor oil on the ground or throw it on the garbage. It poisons the environment. We should recycle motor oil. Paint is another kind of hazardous waste in homes. Some cities have a “Paint Exchange day”. If you bring in open, unused blue paint and wanted red, they give you red.

1. Read the passage and then circle A, B, C and D (2 marks) The research of alternative resources of energy has resulted in various directions. Many communities are burning garbage and other biological waste products to produce electricity. Changing waste products into gases or oil is also an efficient way to dispose of waste. Experimental work is being done to make synthetic fuels from coal, or coal tars. But today, that process has proved expensive. Other experiments are underway to harness power with giant windmills. Geothernmal power, heat from the earth, is also being tested. Some experts are trying to revive hydroelectric power which is derived from streams and rivers. Fifty years ago, hydroeclectric power provided one-third of the electricity used in the United States, but today it supplies only four per cent. The Oceans are another source of energy.

Scientists are studying ways to change the energy of ocean currents, tides, and waves into electricity. Experiments are also underway to make use of temperature differences in ocean water to produce energy.

SECTION B: READING COMPREHENSION1. Read the text and then choose the correct answers A, B, c or D for the following questions. (2 marks) The body of primitive man, a faraway and primitive man called Homo sapiens, so far as we can reconstruct from the fragmentary evidence we have, was exactly like our own, and his brain was as big as that of modern man and quite as complicated in structure. His intelligence and his ability to learn were probably as great as that of the average man today, but he had a very meager inheritance of knowledge. The use of tools and weapons of a primitive short was probably passed on from the subhuman creatures, who had learned how to break stones and use the sharp-edged pieces for cutting and scraping, and how to use a short, heavy stick for a club and a long, pointed one for a spear. The subhuman creatures knew hoe to make use of fire when they found it, but they didn’t know how to make it.

They had also discovered the advantages of social living; that several families living together in a tribe could offer each other help and protection, and that hunters killed more game if they banded together and had a leader to direct the hunt. The discovery that social living increased the odds in favor of survival was, perhaps, primitive man’s greatest discovery – greater and either the discovery of fire or the invention of the wheel.1. What we know of primitive man is based upon

A. pieces of evidence B. a great deal of evidenceC. no evidence D. pictures in caves

2. The first real manA. was unintelligent.B. was incapable of learning.C. received very little knowledge from his ancestors.D. received a great store of knowledge from his ancestors.

3. According to the author, man became a social being becauseA. co-operation was necessary for survivalB. in prehistoric times only the strongest survivedC. by nature he is a social beingD. none of these

4. A direct result of primitive man’s discovery of the advantages of social living was aA. family B. tribe C. city D. nation

5. The author believes that man’s discovery of the advantages of social living is

A. significant B. of great significanceC. insignificant D. well- known

SECTION B: READING COMPREHENSION1. Read the text and then choose the correct answers A, B, c or D for the following questions. (2 marks) East Somalia’s prolonged shortage of rain, which had already caused food supplies to fail and brought unemployment in farming areas, could also affect the production of electricity, and thus reduce the output from the nation’s mines. The mining industry, and especially copper mining, uses a huge amount of electricity and is almost completely dependent on the government Electricity Supply Commission. But the commission has recently asked the mines what would happen if electricity supplies were reduced by ten, twenty or thirty per cent. The commission’s power stations, which produce the electricity using coal as fuels, are mostly situated near the large coalfields of Eastern Province. But this area has little water so the cooling towers at the power stations has to be supplied with water from elsewhere. The problem now is that water levels in all rivers and lakes have fallen dangerously low and, in some cases, are well below the intake pipes which into the pipelines which supply the cooling towers.

In a desperate attempt to solve the problem, engineers are spending some forty million dollars on building a series of small dams across the Haro river. It is hoped that these dams will make the water level at the Malawa Dam rise so that water can then be pumped through a new pipeline to the power stations. This will take time and it now the dry season. Very little rain falls before October or November, and after a shortage which has lasted for four years and is believed to be the worst in two centuries, nobody can say whether the rains will be sufficient. The amount of electricity and water used by the mines has tended to increase in recent years. The mines, which produce about half the country’s export earnings, need electricity in order to pump fresh air through their workings and to drive machines which crush vast quantities of rock. Each mine also has to provide accommodation for as many as three thousand workers.1. How might East Somalia’s lack of rain affect electricity supplies and mining?

A. Copper mines are having to use less electricity.B. Coal supplies are falling to reach power stationsC. Electricity supplies to mines may be cut by up to thirty per cent.D. Copper mines may be unable to pump water by October.

2. Where does the Electricity Supply Commission produce most of its electricity?

A. Along the Haro River. B. Near the copper mines.C. At the Malawa Dam D. In Eastern Province

3. The action of the engineers are takingA. may not help if there is insufficient rain.B. will become effective towards the end of the year.C. Should get enough water to the mines.D. Will use up a lot of electricity.

4. The engineers aim toA. change the direction of the Haro River.B. keep more water at the Malawa Dam.C. get more water into the Haro River.D. dig out artificial lakes near the dam.

5. Why are the copper mines important to East Somalia?A. They train many skilled mechanics.B. Each mine employs approximately 3.000 people.C. Their costs and production are rising.D. They bring in fifty per cent of what the country earns.

SECTION B: READING COMPREHENSION1. Read the text and then choose the correct answers A, B, c or D for the following questions. (2 marks) Polyester is now being used for bottles. ICI, the chemicals and plastics company, believes that it is now beginning to break the grip of glass on the bottle business and thus take advantage of this huge market. All the plastics manufacturers have been experiencing hard times as their traditional products have been doing badly world – wide for the last few years. Between 1982 and 1984 the Plastics Division of ICI had lost a hundreds and twenty million dollars, and they felt that the most hopeful new market was in packaging, bottles and cans.

Since 1982 it has opened three new factories producing “Melinar,” the raw material from which high quality polyester bottles are made. The polyester bottle was born in the 1970s, when soft drinks company like Coca Cola started selling their drinks in giant two – liter container. Because of the build – up of the pressure of gas in these large containers, glass was unsuitable. Nor was PVC, the plastic which had been used for bottles since the 1960s, suitable for drinks with gas in them. A new plastic had to be made. Glass is still cheaper for the smaller bottles, and will continue to be so unless oil and plastic become much cheaper, but plastic does well for the larger sizes. Polyester bottles are virtually unbreakable. The manufacturers claim they are also lighter, less noisy when being handled, and can be reused. Shopkeepers and other business people are unlikely to object to a change from glass to polyester, since these bottles mean few breakages, which are costly and time- consuming. The public, though, have been more difficult to persuade. ICI’s commercial department are developing different bottles with interesting shapes, to try and make them visually more attractive to the public. The next step could be to develop a plastic which could replace tins for food. The problem here is the high temperatures necessary for cooking to food in the container.

1. Plastic of various kinds have been used for making bottlesA. since 1982B. since the 1970s but only for large bottles.C. since the 1960s but not for liquids with gas in them.D. since companies like Coca Cola first tried them.

2. Why is ICI’s Plastic Division interested in polyester for bottles?A. The other things they make are not selling well.B. Glass manufacturers can’t make enough new bottles.C. They have factories which could be adapted to make it.D. The price of oil keeps changing.

3. Why aren’t all bottles now made of polyester?A. The price of oil and plastic had risen.B. It is not suitable for containing gassy drinks.C. The public like traditional glass bottles.D. Shop- keepers dislike reusable bottles.

4. Manufacturers think polyester bottles are better than glass bottles because they

A. are cheaper B. are more suited to small sizesC. are more exciting to look at D. Do not break

easily

5. Plastic containers for holding food in the same way as cansA. have been used for many years.B. are an idea that interests the plastic companies.C. are possible, but only for hot food.D. are the first things being made in the new factories.


In some places outside big cities, food with ……………..(1) than four legs is part of good, healthy home ……………..(2). Fried and grilled ants are a tasty but expensive snack in Colombia, South America. In ……………….(3) parts of Mexico, over 300 types of …………………(4) serve as food. In southern Africa, many ………………(5) like to eat at least one kind of caterpillar or worm.

Two, the moving swarm may carpet the ground with anywhere from 30 to 60 locusts a square yard; therefore, a square mile with typically contain from 100 million to 200 million of the creatures. Seldom, furthermore, will a swarm occupy a mere square mile; swarms more than 400 square miles in area have been recorded. A swarm that size weighs more than 80,000 tons and numbers around 40 billion insects eating the weight of the Queen Mary every day it is on the move – and it never stops.

SECTION B: READING COMPREHENSION1. Read the text and then choose the correct answers A, B, c or D for the following questions. (2 marks)

The legal limit for driving after drinking alcohol is 80 milligrams of alcohol in 100 millilitres of blood, when tested. But there is no sure way of telling how much you can drink before you reach this limit. It varies with each person depending on your weight, your sex, if you just eaten

and what sort of drinks you’ve had. Some people might reach their limit after only about three standard drinks. In fact, your driving ability can be affected by just one or two drinks. Even if you’re below the legal limit, you could still be taken to court if a police officer thinks your driving has been affected by alcohol. It takes about an hour for the body to get rid of the alcohol in one standard drink. So, if you have a heavy drinking session in the evening you might find that your driving ability is still affected the next morning, or you could even find that you’re still over the legal limit. In addition, if you’re had a few drinks at lunchtime, another one or two drinks in the early evening may well put you over the legal limit. In a test with professional drivers, the more alcoholic drinks they had the more certain they were that they could drive a test course through a set of moveable posts… and the less able they were to do it! So the only way to be sure you’re safe is not to drink at all. Alcohol is a major cause of road traffic accidents. One in three of the drivers killed in road accidents have levels of alcohol which are over the legal limit, and road accidents after drinking are the biggest cause of among young men. More than half of the people stopped by the police to take a breathalyzer test have a blood alcohol concentration of more than twice the legal limit. It is important to remember that driving after you’ve been drinking doesn’t just affect you. If you involved in an accident it affects a lot of other people as well, not lease the person you might kill or injure.

1. The amount of alcohol a person can drink before reaching the legal limit is

A. 800 mg of pure alcohol.B. approximately three standard drinks.C. different for different people.D. exactly proportional to body weight.

2. When might you be taken to court by the police for drinking and driving?

A. When you have driven a vehicle after drinking any alcohol at all.

B. When you have drunk at lease three drinks before driving.C. Only when tests show that you have 80 mg of alcohol in 100

ml of blood.D. When the police think that you have been drinking from the

way he is driving.3. When you have been drinking heavily in the evening, the next day

you might be

A. still drunk until lunchtime B. unable to drive until the eveningC. over the legal limit in the morning… D. unable to drive all day

4. Alcohol is a major cause of road accidents in thatA. most drivers who die in these accidents have been drinking.B. more young men die in drink – related accidents than in any

other way.C. drinking affect people eye – sightD. one in three drivers drink heavily.

5. What does this article urge you to remember particularly about driving after drinking?A. You maybe taken to court by the police.B. You are putting yourself in danger.C. You may hurt another road – user.D. You put many other people at risk.

Before man had flown into the space it was thought that his physical and mental capabilities might be affected by long periods of weightlessness, and that he might be endangered by high levels of radiation. Yuri Gagarin’s first space flight in April 1961 showed that man could live in space, although this journey only lasted for 108 minutes, it gave encouragement to those interested in the future of manned space flight. In fact most of the early fears about man’s health in space have proved groundless, and although several odd medical effects have been observed, none has seriously affected man’s ability for useful work. All astronauts undergo strenuous training to prepare them for the experience of space flight but, despite this, most astronauts suffer from space sickness early in their flights. This effect is similar to sea sickness, soon wears off, and there appear to be no medical reason why man can not live in space for long periods of time. A constant check is kept on the health of all astronauts during their mission. Small medical detectors which monitor their heartbeats, pulse rates, breathing and temperature are taped to their bodies. All food eating in space so far has been prepared on earth. The alternative possibilities of making food from waste products or growing in space have received little serious consideration. The first space foods were simply baby foods. In the first American space flights astronauts ate natural foods in dried bite – sized squares or in a form that could be mixed with could water and squeezed into the mouth. The squares were coated to prevent them breaking up into small pieces, and their corners were rounded to prevent them cutting the astronauts’ mouths. Later astronauts ate “sticky” foods with a spoon, and hot as well as cold water was available for making up the

dried meals. These two developments have made eating in space much more pleasant.

1. Yuri Gagarin’s first space flight showedA. scientists could develop weapons in space.B. Human being could survive well in space.C. Astronauts would not suffer from space sickness.D. All the scientific equipment worked well.

2. How is the health of human beings affected in space?A. The affects can be unpleasant but harmless.B. There is a slight risk of heart problem.C. Longer space flights are more dangerous to health.D. Space sickness lasts throughout the flight.

3. What do we learn of early space food?A. It was surprisingly tasty B. The edges cut the astronauts’ mouths.C. It was eaten cold D. It was inconvenient because it dissolved.

4. How has space food improved since the first space flights?A. Baby food has been cut from the diet.B. The food is now produced in bite – sized squares.C. Some normal food is now available.D. There is a greater variety of foods available.

5. The alternative possibilities….. have received little serious consideration. CONSIDERATION meansA. cooperation B. operation C. inspection D.

D (2 marks) Martin Luther King, Jr, is well known for his work in civil rights and for his many famous speeches, among them his moving “I have A Dream” speech. But fewer people know much about King’s childhood. M.L, as he was called, was born in 1929 in Atlanta, Georgia, at their home of his maternal grandfather. M.L’s grandfather, the Reverend A.D Williams, purchased their home on Auburn Avenue in 1909, twenty years before M.L. was born. The Reverend Williams, an eloquent speaker, played an important role in the community since so many people’s lives centered around the church. He allowed his church and his home to be used as a meeting place for a number of organizations delicate to the education and social advancement of blacks .M.L. grew up in this atmosphere, with his home being used as a community gathering place, and was no doubt influenced by it. M.L’s childhood was not especially eventful. His father was a minister and his mother was a musician. He was the second of three children, and he attended all-black schools in a black neighborhood. The neighborhood was not poor, however. Auburn Avenue was the main artery through a prosperous neighborhood that had come to symbolize achievement for Atlanta’s black people. It was an area of banks, insurance companies, builders, jewelers, tailors, doctors, lawyers, and other black-owned or black- operated businesses and services. Even in the face of Atlanta’s segregation, the district thrived. Dr.King never forgot the community spirit he had known as a child, nor did he forget the racial prejudice that was a seemingly insurmountable barrier that kept black Atlantans from mingling with whites.
