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
For many years, scientists have been arguing about global warming. While they don't all agree about what
this might mean for Planet Earth, many think it is going on - and that we can do something about it. We need a
few more years to gather facts before anyone can say for sure. But people need to start now to do things to
stop it.
There are many types of gases in our atmosphere. Some of them absorb the heat from the sun and control
our climate. "Greenhouse gases” are those that hold the heat around the planet's surface. When we increase
the level of these gases, we upset the balance. These extra gases trap even more heat.
Some scientists say global warming has already started to change the environment. The Earth's
temperature has risen one degree Fahrenheit this century. Many scientists believe it could rise from two to
eight degrees Fahrenheit in the next hundred years. This would be the fastest rise in 10,000 years.
Sea levels could rise. Ice sheets could melt and add to the water level. Many places near the coast would
be in danger of flooding. If the climate change is too large and too fast, some plants and animals could really
suffer. They could even die out. Weather could become more violent and extreme. In some places there would
be more forest fires. But in other areas there would be more rain and snow, storms and floods.
Question 26. What is the passage mainly about?
A. Global warming and forest fires.
B. Global warming and suggested solutions.
C. Global warming and its advantages.
D. Global warming and its negative effects.
Question 27. According to the passage, gases control our climate by _______.
A. increasing its level B. changing the environment
C. upsetting the balance D. absorbing the heat
Question 28. The word "it" in paragraph 3 refers to _______.
A. century B. global warming C. temperature D. environment

A. Scientists have all agreed about global warming

D. Scientists say that global warming can never change the environment

Passage 4:
Workplace gender equality is achieved when people are able to access and enjoy the same rewards,
resources and opportunities regardless of their gender.
Australia, along with many countries worldwide, has made significant progress towards gender equality in
recent decades, particularly in education, healthcare and female workforce participation. However, the gender
gap in the Australian workplace is still prevalent. Specifically, women continue to earn less than men, are less
likely to advance their careers as far as men, and accumulate less retirement or superannuation savings. At
the same time, men have less access to family-friendly policies such as parental leave or flexible working
arrangements than women.
The aim of gender equality in the workplace is to achieve broadly equal outcomes that are exactly the same for
all. To achieve this requires:
- Workplace to provide equal payment for work of equal or comparable values.
- Removal of barriers to equal participation of women in the workforce.
- Equal access to all occupations and industries, including leadership roles, regardless of gender.
Achieving gender equality is important for workplaces not only because it is “fair” and “the right things to do”,
but because it is also linked to a country’s overall economic performance.
Question 21. When is the gender equality achieved in the workplace?
A. When people are able to have the same rewards regardless of their gender
B. When people are able to have the same resources regardless of their gender
C. When people are able to have the same opportunities regardless of their gender
D. All the answers above
Question 22. In what fields has Australia made progress towards the gender equality?
A. education B. careers C. workplace D. retirement
Question 23. In what fields has the gender gap in Australia existed?
A. education B. politics C. healthcare D. workplace
Question 24. Which of the following is NOT true about the ways to guarantee the equality in the workplace?
A. Providing equal salaries for equal work
B. Removing barriers preventing women from participating in the workplace
C. Providing women with chances to play fair D. Providing chances to access all roles in all jobs
Question 25. What is the main idea of this passage?
A. Aims of gender equality
B. Importance of gender equality in the workplace
C. Gender equality in the workplace
D. Gender equality in Australia
