evidence does not enable us to say with certainly that mobile phones are categorically……. (32) …. .
On the other hand, current researcher has not yet proved clear adverse effect associated with the
prolonged use of mobile phones.

Numerous studies are now going (33) in various countries. Some of the results are contradictory but

are preliminary and the issue needs further, long- term investigation.

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 from 36 to 42.
Animation traditionally is done by hand- drawing or painting successive frame of an object, each
slightly different than the proceeding frame. In computer animation, although the computer may be
the one to draw the different frames, in most cases the artist will draw the beginning and ending
frames and the computer will produce the drawings between the first and the last drawing. This is
generally referred to as computer- assisted animation, because the computer is more of a helper than
an originator.
In full computer animation, complex mathematical formulas are used to produce the final sequences
of pictures. These formulas operate on extensive databases of numbers that defines the objects in the
pictures as they exist in mathematical space. The database consists of endpoints, and color and
intensity information. Highly trained professionals are needed to produce such effects because
animation that obtains high degrees of realism involves computer techniques from three- dimensional
transformation, shading, and curvatures.
High- tech computer animation for film involves very expensive computer systems along with special
color terminals or frame buffers. The frame buffer is nothing more than a giant image memory for

viewing a single frame. It temporarily holds the image for display on the screen.
A camera can be used to film directly from the computer’s display screen, but for the highest quality
images possible, expensive film recorders are used. The computer computers the position and colors
for the figures in the picture, and sends this information to the recorder, which captures it on film.
Sometimes, however, the images are stored on a large magnetic disk before being sent to the recorder.
Once this process is completed, it is replaced for the next frame. When the entire sequence has been
recorded on the film, the film must be developed before the animation can be viewed. If the entire
sequence does not seem right, the motions must be corrected recomputed, redisplayed, and
rerecorded. This approach can be very expensive and time- consuming. Often, computer- animation
companies first do motion tests with simple computer- generated line drawings before selling their
computers to the task of calculating the high- resolution, realistic- looking images.
Question 36. What aspect of computer animation does the passage mainly discuss?
A. The production procession

animation are determined by…………
A. drawing several version
C. analyzing the sequence from different angles

B. enlarging one frame at a lime

D. create new frames

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 from 43 to 50.
During the nineteenth century, women in the United States organized and participated in a large
number of reform movements, including movements to reorganize the prison system, improve
education, ban the sale of alcohol, grant rights to people who were denied them, and, most
importantly, free slaves. Some women saw similarities in the social status of women and slaves.
Women like Elizabeth Candy Stanton and Lucy Stone were feminists and abolitionists who
supported the rights of both women and blacks. A number of male abolitionists, including William
Lloyd Garrison and Wendell Phillips, also supported the rights of women to speak and to participate
equally with men in antislavery activities. Probably more than any other movement, abolitionism
offered women a previously denied entry into politics. They became involved primarily in order to
better their living conditions and improve the conditions of others.
When the civil war ended in 1865, the Fourteen and Fifteen Amendments to the Constitution
adopted in1868 and 1870 granted citizenship and suffrage
to blacks but not to women.
Discouraged but resolved, feminists worked tirelessly to influence more and more women to
demand the right to vote. In 1869, the Wyoming territory had yielded to demands by feminists, but
the states on the East Coast resisted more stubbornly than before. A women’s suffrage bill had been
presented to every Congress since 1878, but it continually failed to pass until 1920, when the
Nineteenth Amendment granted women the right to vote.

A. The Wyoming Territory

C. Abolitionists

B. The Fourteenth and Fifteenth Amendments

A. disregarded

A. To improve the conditions of life that existed at the time.
B. To support Elizabeth Cady Stanton for president.
C. To be elected to public office.

D. To amend the Declaration of independence.
Question 47. What had occurred shortly after the Civil War?

A. The Wyoming Territory was admitted to the Union.
B. A women’s suffrage bill was introduced in Congress.
C. The eastern states resisted the end of the war.
