Part 2 : Read the following passage and answer the questions.
The world's oceans are so vast that they can cope with the present levels of pollution.
However, little is known about the long-term effects of such slow poisoning. The most serious
problem of modern time is that man is destroying the earth's natural resources and transforming
huge areas into waste land. As a result, it is becoming extremely difficult to grow enough to feed

the world's rapidly increasing population. A way of protecting all wild life on the earth must also
be found as many species are in danger of disappearing completely from the face of the earth.
The smoke in the atmosphere, for example, is increasing so much that the amount of sunlight has
been reduced in many cities. Man's whole environment is being changed in a serious way.

Part 3: Read the passage and decide which is the best answer. Circle the letter A, B, C or
D next to the word you choose.
Paper is named for papyrus, a reed like plant used by ancient Egyptians as writing material
more than 5000 years ago. The Chinese invented the paper that we use 2000 years ago.
A piece of paper is really made up of tiny fibers, unlike a piece of material. The fibers
used in paper, however, are plant fibers, and there are millions of them in one sheet. In addition
to the plant fiber, dyes and additives such as resin may be used. Dyes can make the paper
different colors; resin may add weight and texture.
Where do these fibers come from ? The majority of paper is made from the plant fiber that

comes from trees. Millions are cut down, but new trees are planted in their place. Paper may be
also made from things like old rags or pieces of cloth. Wastepaper, paper that has been made and
used, can be turned into recycled paper. This recycling process saves forest, energy and reduces
air and water pollution.

A. the Chinese

D. foresters

C. plant fiber

XI. Read the following passage and then choose the correct answer A, B, C or D. (1,0 pt)
Simply being bilingual doesn't qualify someone to interpret. Interpreting is not only a
mechanical process of converting one sentence in language A into the same sentence in language
B. Rather, its a complex art in which thoughts and idioms that have no obvious counterparts from
tongue to tongue _ or words that have several meanings must be quickly transformed in such a
way that the message is clearly and accurately expressed to the listener.
At one international conference, an American speaker said, "You can't make a silk purse
out of a sow’s ear", which meant nothing to the Spanish audience. The interpretation was, "A
monkey in a silk dress is still a monkey" _ an idiom the Spanish understood and that expressed
the same idea.
There are 2 kinds of interpreters, simultaneous and consecutive. The former, sitting in a
separated booth, usually at a large multilingual conference, speaks to listeners wearing
headphones, interpreting what a foreign language speaker says _ actually a sentence behind.
Consecutive interpreters are the ones most international negotiations use. They are employed for
smaller meetings without sound booths and headphones. Consecutive interpretation also requires
two-person teams. A foreign speaker says his piece while the interpreter, using special shorthand,
takes notes and during a pause, tells the client what was said.
1. What is the purpose of the passage?
A. To differentiate between simultaneous and consecutive interpreters.

3. The word "rather" is closest in meaning to….
A. on the contrary

B. in brief

C. in general D. as a result
