Stella McCartney was born in 1972, the daughter of pop star Sir Paul McCartney. She is the youngest of three sisters. One sister is a potter and the other sister does the same job as their mother used to do - she works as a photographer. Stella's brother, James, is a musician. Stella first hit the newspaper headlines in 1995 when she graduated in fashion design from art college. At her final show, her clothes were modeled by her friends, Naomi Campbell and Kate Moss, both well-known models. Unsurprisingly, the student show became front-page news around the world. Stella hadn't been in the news before as a fashion designer but she had spent time working in the fashion world since she was fifteen. In March 1997, Stella went to work for the fashion house Chloe. People said the famous fashion house had given her the job because of her surname and her famous parents but Stella soon showed how good she was. She designs clothes which she would like to wear herself, although she's not a model, and many famous models and actors choose to wear them. In 2001 Stella started her own fashion house and has since opened stores around the world and won many prizes. A lifelongvegetarian, McCartney does not use any leather or fur in her design. Instead, she uses silk, wool and other animal-derived fabrics.

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.

An air pollutant is defined as a compound added directly or indirectly by humans to the atmosphere in such quantities as to affect humans, animals, vegetation, or materials adversely. Air pollution requires a very flexible definition that permits continuous changes. When the first air pollution laws were established in England in the fourteenth century, air pollutants were limited to compounds that could be seen or smelled- a far cry from the extensive list of harmful substances known today. As technology has developed and knowledge of health aspects of various chemicals has increased, the list of air pollutants has lengthened. In the future, even water vapor might be considered an air pollutant under certain conditions.

Many of more important air pollutants, such as sulfur oxides, carbon monoxides and nitrogen oxides are found in nature. As the Earth developed, the concentration of these pollutants was altered by various chemical reactions; they became components in biogeochemical cycles. Theseserve as an air purification scheme by allowing the compounds to move from the air to the water or soil. On a global basis, nature's output of these compounds dwarfs that resulting from human activities.

However, human production usually occurs in a localized area, such as a city. In such region, human output may be dominant and may temporarily overload the natural purification scheme of the cycles. The result is an concentration of noxious chemicals in the air. The concentrations at which the adverse effects appear will be greater than the concentrations that the pollutants would have in the absence of human activities. The actual concentration need not be large for a substance to be a pollutant; in fact, the numerical value tells us little until we know how much of an increase this represents over the concentration that would occur naturally in the area. For example, sulfur dioxide has detectablehealth effects at 0. 08 parts per million (ppm), which is about 400 times its natural level. Carbon monoxide, however has a natural level of 0. 1 ppm and is not usually a pollutant until its level reaches about 15 ppm.

The term 'virus is derived from the Latin word for poison, or slime. It was originally applied to the noxious stench emanating from swamps that was thought to cause a variety of diseases in the centuries before microbes were discovered and specifically linked to illness. But it was not until almost the end of the nineteenth century that a true virus was provento be the cause of a disease.

The natureof viruses made them impossible to detect for many years even after bacteria had been discovered and studied. Not only are viruses too small to be seen with a light microscope, they also cannot be detected through their biological activity, except as it occurs in conjunction with other organisms. In fact, viruses show no traces of biological activity by themselves. Unlike bacteria, they are not living agents in the strictest sense Viruses are very simple pieces of organic material composed only of nucleic acid, either DNA or RNA, enclosed in a coat of protein made up of simple structural units.(Some viruses also contain carbohydrates and lipids.) They are parasites, requiring human, animal, or plant cells to live. The virus replicates by attaching to a cell and injecting its nucleic acid.' once inside the cell, the DNA or RNA that contains the virus' genetic information takes over the cell's biological machinery, and the cell begins to manufacture viral proteins rather than its own.

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.

There are three basic types of classroom learning styles: visual, auditory, and kinesthetic. These learning styles describe the most common ways that people learn. Individuals tend to instinctively prefer one style over the others; thus each person has a learning style that is dominant even though he or she may also rely somewhat on the other approaches at different times and in different circumstances.

Visual learners prefer to sit somewhere in the classroom where no obstructionshinder their view of the lesson. They rely on the teacher's facial expressions and body language to aid their 3 learning. They learn best from a blendof visual displays and presentations such as colorful videos, diagrams, and flip- charts. Often, these learners think in pictures and may even close their eyes to visualize or remember something. When they are bored, they look around for something to watch. Many visual learners lack confidence in their auditory memory skills and so may take detailed notes during classroom discussions and lectures.

Auditory learners sit where they can hear well. They enjoy listening and talking, so discussions and verbal lectures stimulate them. Listening to what others have to say and then talking the subject through helps themprocess new information. These learners may be heard reading to themselves out loud because they can absorb written information better in this way. Sounding out spelling words, reciting mathematical theories, or talking their way across a map are examples of the types of activities that improve their understanding.

Kinesthetic learners may find it difficult to sit still in a conventional classroom. They need to be physically active and take frequent breaks. When they are bored, they fidget in their seats. They prefer to sit someplace where there is room to move about. They benefit from manipulating materials and learn best when classroom subjects such as math, science, and reading are processed through hands-on experiences. Incorporating arts-and-crafts activities, building projects, and sports into lessons helps kinesthetic learners process new information. Physical expressions of encouragement, such as a pat on the back, are often appreciated.

In addition to these traditional ways of describing learning styles, educators have identified other ways some students prefer to learn. Verbal learners, for example, enjoy using words, both written and spoken. Logical learners are strong in the areas of logic and reasoning, Social learners do best when working in groups, whereas solitary learners prefer to work alone. Research shows that each of these learning styles, as well as the visual, auditory, and kinesthetic styles, uses different parts of the brain. Students may prefer to focus on just one style, but practicing other styles involves more of the brain's potential and therefore helps students remember more of what they learn.

Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, Cor D on your answer sheet to indicate the correct answer to each of the questions.

When naming a child, some parents seem to choose a name based simply on their personal preference. In other families, grandparents or professional name-makers come up with a child's name. In some cases, the time of a child's birth influences how the child's name is determined.

In many European cultures, names are typically chosen by parents. Parents' choice for their child's name may be based on names of their relatives or ancestors. For example, in Italy, children are traditionally named after their grandparents. The parents generally use the father's parents' names first. If they have more children, then they will use the mother's parents' names. Similarly, some people in Eastern Europe name their children after relatives who have died. This tradition is seen as a means to protect the child from the Angel of Death.

Traditionally in some Asian countries, a child's grandfather or a fortune-teller chooses the child's name. In contrast to the tradition of naming children after relatives, the child's name is chosen to influence the child's character. For example, names may be based on a connection to certain elements such as fire, water, earth, wood, or metal. Or the name might include a written character meaning beauty, strength, or kindness.

In certain African cultures, when a child is born plays a large part in determining the child's name. In Ghana's Akan culture, the day a child is born determines the child's name. But each day has different names for boys and girls. For instance, a boy born on Friday is named Kofi, whereas a girl born on the same day is named Afua. Both Kofi and Afua mean "wanderer" or "explorer." Children with these names are seen as travelers. No matter where the name comes from, a child's name is the first gift in life. Whether the name is chosen according to preference or dictatedby tradition, it reflects something about a child's culture. For that reason, all names should be treasured and respected.

Question 39: What is the main idea of the passage?

A. Choosing traditional names

B. Choosing names in Italian culture

C. How Asian people name their children

D. How names reflect a person's culture

Question 40: In which culture are children most likely named after their grandparents?

     A. Japanese                   B. Mexican                   C. Italian                       D. Akan

Question 41: In China, what should names relate to?

     A. child's birth element                                       B. A child's personality

     C. A child's ancestors                                         D. A child's birth date

Question 42: Which is true in Akan culture if a twin brother and sister are born on a Friday?

A. They will have to travel to a different city.

B. They will have different names.

C. They will both be named Afua.

D. They will both be named Kofi.

Question 43: The word "dictated"in paragraph 4 is closest in meaning to _____.

     A. translated                  B. said                           C. written                      D. determined

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.

The first year of life The Danish archaeologist Christian Jürgensen Thomsen, curator of the National Museum of Denmark (1816-65), was among the first to use the taxonomic approach in the social sciences. In a painstaking study of the bracteate, a type of ancient pendant found in northern Europe, he charted a variety of morphological categories, such as insignia and size. By combining the typologies thus created, he showed that these Nordic ornaments had developed from earlier Roman coins. Thomsen later used similar techniques with a much larger body of data and eventually developed the basic chronology for Old World antiquities: the Stone Age, Bronze Age, and Iron Age.

Ideas and expressive culture also proved susceptible to taxonomic analysis. The American ethnologist Lewis Henry Morgan gathered data from a large number of Native American tribes and created a typology based on their kinship terminology, which he presented in Systems of Consanguinity and Affinity of the Human Family (1871). Influenced by the evolutionary theses of Charles Darwin and Herbert Spencer and by Thomsen's three-age system, Morgan later proposed a universal sequence of cultural evolution in his book Ancient Society; or, Researches in the Lines of Human Progress from Savagery Through Barbarism to Civilization (1877). In this work he suggested that all cultures went through a clearly defined series of evolutionary stages: first savagery, which was characterized by a hunting and gathering economy; next barbarism, the stage at which agriculture appears; and finally civilization, represented by hierarchical societies such as thoseof ancient Greece, ancient Rome, and Victorian England.

As one might suspect from Morgan's choice of terms, 19th-century social sciences were intrinsically linked to the colonial endeavors of the period. This was the case whether the colonial effort took place domestically, as in the United States and Canada, or abroad, as it did for the countries of Europe. Although the labeling of a group as "savage" or "barbarous" was to some extent intended to convey specific technical information, the use of such easily misinterpreted labels also made the era's overtly racist colonial policies more palatable to the general public: it was considerably less morally taxing to "civilize the savages" than to "forcibly assimilate an indigenous people.

One of the principal preoccupations of social scientists at this time was the recording of "vanishing" indigenous cultures. This was often undertaken as part of a frank pursuit of the knowledge needed to achieve social and political control over a region, whether in domestic or in overseas contexts. Thus, many early ethnographies and cultural geographies were written by civil servants, military personnel, or missionaries.

Question 44: Christian Jürgensen Thomsen was one of the first scientists to _______ .

A. study the bracteate, a type of ancient pendant found in northern Europe

B. study Nordic ornaments and Roman coins

C. manage the National Museum of Denmark

D. use the scientific process of classifying things in his study of the social sciences

Question 45: The word "painstaking"in the paragraph 1 is closest in meaning to _______.

     A. complex                   B. complete                   C. comprehensive         D. thorough

Question 46: According to the passage, the taxonomic approach _______.

A. possibly had an influence on ideas and expressive culture

B. was influenced by the evolutionary theses of Charles Darwin

C. was intrinsically linked to the colonial endeavours of the period

D. likely had a base for Native American tribes' kinship terminology

Question 47: Some labels in Morgan's choice of terms _______ .

A. made the general public believe that the colonists' policies of racism were immoral

B. made the colonists' policies of racism more acceptable to the general public

C. were the principal preoccupations of social scientists in the turning of 19th century

D. received a lot of negative publicity during the early days of colonialism

Question 48: The word "those" in paragraph 2 refers to _______ .

     A. stages                       B. cultures                     C. societies                    D. series

Question 49: The social scientists in 19th century paid most of their attention to _______ .

A. the recording of 'vanishing' indigenous cultures

B. the social and political control over a colony

C. Morgan's choice of terms

D. the ways to assimilate an indigenous people

Question 50: Civil servants, military personnel, or missionaries wrote many ethnographies and cultural geographies of a country

A. in an endeavor to achieve social and political control over it

B. in order to justify their overtly racist colonial policies

C. as part of a frank pursuit of the knowledge needed for their research

D. so as to store information about indigenous cultures for later generations

Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, Cor D on your answer sheet to indicate the correct answer to each of the questions.

When naming a child, some parents seem to choose a name based simply on their personal preference. In other families, grandparents or professional name-makers come up with a child's name. In some cases, the time of a child's birth influences how the child's name is determined.

In many European cultures, names are typically chosen by parents. Parents' choice for their child's name may be based on names of their relatives or ancestors. For example, in Italy, children are traditionally named after their grandparents. The parents generally use the father's parents' names first. If they have more children, then they will use the mother's parents' names. Similarly, some people in Eastern Europe name their children after relatives who have died. This tradition is seen as a means to protect the child from the Angel of Death.

Traditionally in some Asian countries, a child's grandfather or a fortune-teller chooses the child's name. In contrast to the tradition of naming children after relatives, the child's name is chosen to influence the child's character. For example, names may be based on a connection to certain elements such as fire, water, earth, wood, or metal. Or the name might include a written character meaning beauty, strength, or kindness.

In certain African cultures, when a child is born plays a large part in determining the child's name. In Ghana's Akan culture, the day a child is born determines the child's name. But each day has different names for boys and girls. For instance, a boy born on Friday is named Kofi, whereas a girl born on the same day is named Afua. Both Kofi and Afua mean "wanderer" or "explorer." Children with these names are seen as travelers. No matter where the name comes from, a child's name is the first gift in life. Whether the name is chosen according to preference or dictatedby tradition, it reflects something about a child's culture. For that reason, all names should be treasured and respected.

Question 39: What is the main idea of the passage?

A. Choosing traditional names

B. Choosing names in Italian culture

C. How Asian people name their children

D. How names reflect a person's culture

Question 40: In which culture are children most likely named after their grandparents?

     A. Japanese                   B. Mexican                   C. Italian                       D. Akan

Question 41: In China, what should names relate to?

     A. child's birth element                                       B. A child's personality

     C. A child's ancestors                                         D. A child's birth date

Question 42: Which is true in Akan culture if a twin brother and sister are born on a Friday?

A. They will have to travel to a different city.

B. They will have different names.

C. They will both be named Afua.

D. They will both be named Kofi.

Question 43: The word "dictated"in paragraph 4 is closest in meaning to _____.

     A. translated                  B. said                           C. written                      D. determined
