Man is a land animal, but he also closely tied to the sea. Throughout history the sea has served the
needs of man. The sea has provided man with food and convenient way to travel to many parts of the
world. Today, nearly two thirds of the world's population lives within 80 kilometers of the sea coast.
In the modern technological world, the sea offers many resources to help mankind survive.
Resources on land are beginning to be used up. The sea, however, still can be hoped to supply many
man's needs. The list of riches of the sea yet to be developed by man's technology is impressive. Oil
and gas explorations have been conducted for nearly 30 years. Valuable amounts of minerals existing
on the ocean floor are ready to be mined.
Fish farming promises to be a good way to produce large quantities of food. The culture of fish and
shellfish is an ancient skill practiced in the past mainly by Oriental people.
Besides oil and gas, the sea may offer new sources of energy. Experts believe that the warm
temperature of the ocean can be used in a way similar to the steam in a steamship. Ocean currents and
waves offer possible use as a source of energy.
Technology is enabling man to explore ever more deeply under the sea. The development of strong,
new materials has made this possible. The technology to harvest the sea continues to improve. Experts
believe that by the year 2020 the problems that prevent US from exploiting fully the food, minerals,
and energy source of the sea will be largely solved.
28. The major things that the sea offers man are________.
A. fish and oil B. minerals and oil
C. food, energy sources, and minerals D. ocean currents and waves
29. We can conclude from the passage that________.
A. the sea resources have largely been used up
B. the seahas not yet been fully exploided
C. the problems that prevent US from fully exploiting the sea have already been solved

Tigers are one of the most powerful and graceful animals in the world. The different species
that still exist today, namely the Bengal, Indochina, Siberian, South China and Sumatra tigers are in
danger of becoming extinct. Due to irresponsible hunting, the Bali, Caspian and Java tigers have
already become extinct. This could soon happen to the other species too.
In the past, tigers were considered as pests. With a smaller area to hunt, as man had taken up
more of the land to build upon, the tigers found less area for themselves to hunt. They thus turned to
farms to get their food. Farmers’ livestock were attacked by these tigers. People were then encouraged
to hunt and kill these animals with the promise of rewards. Even after the threat of tigers on livestock
was over, man continued to hunt tigers, this time for recreation. Poachers too hunt tigers for their body
parts knowing that the skin of tigers is much sought after. Bones and other organs are also used as
ingredients in traditional Chinese medicine. Although killing is illegal, it is still being carried out
unless it is stopped, the remaining species of tigers will soon become extinct too.

American foods began to affect the rest of the world. American emphasis on convenient and
rapid consumption is best represented in fast foods such as hamburgers, French fries, and soft drinks.
By the 1960s and 1970s fast foods became one of America's strongest exports as franchises for Me

poultry, fish and vegetables, and fewer eggs and less beef. Cooks began to rediscover many world
cuisines in forms closer to their original. In California, chefs combined fresh fruits and vegetables
available with ingredients and spices borrowed from immigrant kitchens to create an innovative
cooking style that was lighter than traditional French, but more interesting and varied than typical
American cuisine. Along with the state's wines, California cuisine took its place among the
acknowledged forms of fine dining.

Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C or D to indicate the correct answer .
In the earliest times children got their education directly from parents and other adults. They learned
mainly skills for survival. Adults passed down this knowledge through spoken language. Eventually
cultures around the world began inventing writing. As societies developed they set up schools to teach
reading, writing, maths and other subjects.
The first schools were usually just for boys. Most of the students came from rich and powerful
families. Often the purpose of their education was religious training. In many cultures the religious
leaders formed the highest level of society. Some schools had other purposes as well. Many schools
focused on military training. Sometimes youths attended special schools to learn the art of public
speaking. These skills were meant to help them become future leaders.
Most girls received their education at home. They learned cooking, sewing and other useful
skills. Over time education became available to more people, not just the rich and powerful. The
governments of some countries set up public systems of education in the 1800s. More schools opened
to girls.
During the 1900s marks, or grades, became a new measure of learning. Testing became a
regular part of formal education. As education became more important to people, teachers' colleges
opened. The requirements for becoming a teacher became stricter. Teaching became a highly
respected profession.

Have you ever noticed advertisements which say “Learn a foreign language in 6 weeks, or your
money back. From the first day your pronunciation will be excellent. Just send...” and so on? Of
course, it never happens quite like that. One’s mother language is easier to learn, but it also requires a
lot of practice to be fluent. And think how much practice that gets! Before the Second World War,
people usually learned a foreign language in order to read the literature of the country.
Now speaking a foreign language is what most people want. Every year many millions of
people start learning one. How do they do it? Some people try it at home, with books and records of
tapes; some use radio or television programmes; some use computers and network; others go to
evening classes. If they use the language only 2 or 3 times a week, it will take a long time, like
learning a foreign language at school. A few people try to learn the language fast by studying for 6 or
more hours a day. It is clearly easier to learn the language in the country where it is spoken. However,
most people cannot afford this, and for many it is not necessary. They need the language in order to do
their work better. For example, scientists and doctors chiefly need to be able to read books and reports
in the foreign language. Whether the language is learned quickly or slowly, it is hard work. Machines
and good books will help, but they cannot do the student’s work for him.
30. According to some advertisements, you _______.
A. have to pay your money if you cannot master a foreign language in 6 weeks
B. needn’t pay your money if you cannot learn a foreign language in 6 weeks
C. must pay your money if you cannot master a foreign language in 6 weeks
D. will be paid much money if you cannot learn a foreign language in 6 weeks
31. Now most people try to learn a foreign language in order to _______.
A. read the literature of the country B. read books and reports
C. do their work better D. go to foreign countries
32. The best way to learn a foreign language is _______.
A. to go to the country where the language is spoken
B. to use machines and good books
C. to do as the advertisements tell you to
D. to go to evening classes
33. Learning a foreign language is a hard job _______.
A. only for scientists and doctors B. only for the students at school
C. for those people at home D. for most people

Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C or D to indicate the correct answer
In the 1960s, it took pop and rock groups one or two days to record their songs. Nowadays, it
can take months and months. Many rock groups begin by recording only one instrument, for example,
the voice. Then they record other instruments- electric piano, synthesizer, guitars, drums and so on.
Next, they might use a computer to add special effects. Finally, they ‘mix’ all the instruments
until they get the sound that they want. This means that a CD or cassette will always sound very
different from a live concert.
Music engineers have developed a new computer programme that will change the future of
music. A computer can analyse a singer’s voice. Then if you give the computer the lyrics and music of
a song, the computer can “sing” it in that voice. This means that a singer only needs to record one song
and the computer can then sing other songs in the singer’s own voice. Singers can sing new songs
many years after they have died.
Most of us listen to music for pleasure, but for the record companies, music is a product, the
same as soap powder. When a record company finds a new group (or “band”), they first try to develop
the band’s “profile”. They will try to create an “image” for the band that they think will attract young
people. Instead of allowing the band’s full artistic freedom, they will often tell the band what they
should wear, what they should say and how they should sing and play.
In recent year, many rock groups have started their own record companies because they say
that the big companies are too commercial.

The bee, like the ant, is a social insect. Bees live in groups in a hive, and every bee does certain work
that helps the other members of the group. In a beehive there are three kinds of bees: the queen bee,
the drones, and the workers. The worker bees go from flower to flower collecting nectar, or juice,
which is composed mostly of sugar mixed with water. Bees draw this nectar into the honey sacks of
their bodies, and enzymes in their bodies turn the nectar into honey. This newly made honey oozes
from the underside of the bees and is stored in cells in the hive to be used as food during the winter
months. Some people are in the honey business and keep hundreds of hives. Beekeepers remove honey
from the hives and pack it in bottles or jars. Honey usually appears as a clear golden-colored liquid,
but this depends on the kind of flower from which the bees have taken the nectar.

Family life is changing. Two-parent households are on the decline in the United States as
divorce, remarriage and cohabitation are on the rise. And families are smaller now, both due to the
growth of single-parent households and the drop in fertility. Not only are Americans having fewer
children, but the circumstances surrounding parenthood have changed. While in the early 1960s babies
typically arrived within a marriage, today fully four-in-ten births occur to women who are single or
living with a non-marital partner. At the same time that family structures have transformed, so has the
role of mothers in the workplace – and in the home. As more moms have entered the labor force, more
have become breadwinners – in many cases, primary breadwinners – in their families.
As a result of these changes, there is no longer one dominant family form in the US. Parents
today are raising their children agianst a backdrop of increasingly diverse and, for many, constantly
evolving family forms.
