The word 'Viking' comes from Old Norse, the language that was spoken in Scandinavian countries
throughout the Viking Age - generally believed to be from the late 8th century until 1066 C E. It means
'pirate raid'. But while some Vikings were fierce warriors, many were farmers, traders and merchants who
travelled overseas, either to exchange goods or search for new places to settle.
The Vikings were skilled craftsmen who built magnificent wooden ships known as longboats. They sailed
(and rowed when there was a lack of wind) from Denmark, Finland, Norway and Sweden to the UK,
mainland Europe, Iceland and Greenland, and even across the Atlantic to North America - 500 years before
explorer Christopher Columbus. This is quite remarkable, considering they didn't have maps or charts to help
with navigation. Instead, it's thought that they paid attention to the position of the sun and stars, or estimated
how far they were from land by the color of the sea and the birds flying overhead.
As well as expert boat builders, Vikings were talented carpenters, blacksmiths and jewellers, who made
swords, spears and axes to use in battles, and tools to farm their land. They also spun wool and flax into cloth
to make clothes. Rings, made from silver and bronze, were worn by both men and women, and not only on
their fingers. Surprisingly, for the time in history, and compared with other cultures, Viking women were
given a notable amount of freedom, which allowed some of them to become rich and powerful. While men
were away trading or raiding, women were in charge at home, taking care their farms and families. They
could own property, request a divorce and even reclaim a dowry (property or money brought by a bride to
her husband) if their marriage ended. Only a tiny percentage, known as shieldmaidens, were involved in
raiding or fighting. Children were expected to help with daily chores. From the age of about five, girls and
boys looked after farm animals, gathered firewood and cooked. They had a few toys, such as small wooden
ships and dolls, and would listen to sagas and songs in the evening.
For about 270 years, the Vikings travelled much of the globe, and ships left Scandinavia for destinations as
far afield as Russia and Asia, as well as North America. But their explorations, and certainly the violent
ravaging and conflicts, all came to a somewhat abrupt and gory end in 1066, when - at the Battle of Stamford
Bridge, in the East Riding of Yorkshire - the English army successfully repelled the Viking invaders. A
defeated army returned home, and Viking dominance diminished.

B. They traveled for commerce and resettlement.
C. Farming was their main way of living.
D. They only exchanged goods with each other.
Question 30: Why is the Vikings' arrival in North America a remarkable achievement?
A. Because their boats did not have a sail to help with navigation
B. Because they were the first to draw maps and charts of the Atlantic

D. Because they just relied on their knowledge of the sea and the sky

When British artist Harold Cohen met his first computer in 1968, he wondered if the machine might help
solve a mystery that had long puzzled him: How can we look at a drawing, a few little scribbles, and see a
face? Five years later, he devised a robotic artist called AARON to explore this idea. He equipped it with
basic rules for painting and for how body parts are represented in portraiture - and then set it loose making
art. Not far behind was the composer David Cope, who coined the phrase "musical intelligence" to describe
his experiments with artificial intelligence - powered composition.
Cohen and Cope were among a handful of people pushing computers to go against their nature as cold,
calculating things. The emerging field of Al had its focus set squarely on solid concepts like reasoning and
planning, or on tasks like playing chess and checkers or solving mathematical problems. Most Al researchers
laughed at the notion of creative machines. Slowly, however, as Cohen and Cope published a stream of
academic papers and books about their work, a field emerged around them: computational creativity - the
study and development of autonomous creative systems, interactive tools that support human creativity and
mathematical approaches to modeling human creativity. Soon enough - thanks to new techniques in machine
learning and artificial neural networks, in which connected computing nodes attempt to mirror the workings
of the brain - creative Als could absorb and internalize real-world data and identify patterns and rules that
they could apply to their creations.
New techniques that excelled at classifying data to high degrees of precision through repeated analysis
helped Al master existing creative styles. Al could now create works like those of classical composers,
famous painters, novelists and more. One Al-authored painting modeled on thousands of portraits painted
between the 14th and 20th centuries sold for $432,500 at auction. In another case, study participants
struggled to differentiate the musical phrases of Johann Sebastian Bach from those created by Kulitta that
had been trained on Bach's compositions.
But many in the field, as well as onlookers, wondered if these Als really showed creativity. Though
sophisticated in their mimicry, these creative Als seemed incapable of true innovation because they lacked
the capacity to incorporate new influences from their environment. True creativity is a quest for originality. It
is a recombination of different ideas in new ways. It is an unexpected solution. It might be music or painting
or dance, but also the flash of inspiration that helps lead to advances. In the view of many scientists in the
computational creativity field, it is not yet attainable by machines.

Black tea and green tea are two of the most common categories of tea - whether you're a newcomer to the tea
world or are a tea aficionado, you've likely tasted them both before a couple of times. These two types of tea
are produced from the same plant species, but different ways of harvesting and processing the plant produce
different types of tea. Immediately after being harvested, the leaves of green tea are heated to halt the
oxidation process, usually either by steaming or pan-firing.This ensures that the tea experiences minimal
oxidation and stays a bright green color.Meanwhile, black tea leaves go through a process of wilting,
bruising, rolling, and oxidation. Oxidation occurs when the leaves remain exposed to the air for a long time.
[A]
Many studies have looked specifically at the health benefits of tea. A key area of interest is tea as a source of
antioxidants. Antioxidants help combat free radicals - unstable molecules in the body that result from both
natural processes and environmental pressures. The body can remove free radicals, but if too many build
up, they can damage or change cells. These changes can contribute to the development of many diseases,
such as atherosclerosis - the leading cause of heart attacks and strokes, and some cancers.Since both teas
derive from the same plant,they are both rich in a group of protective antioxidants called polyphenols organic compounds that include flavonoids (such as catechins), tannins, and theaflavins. [B]
However, black tea and green tea contain different types and amounts of polyphenol.For example, green tea
contains a high amount of epigallocatechin gallate (also called EGCG), the most abundant catechin found in
tea, while black tea contains more theaflavins, which contribute a reddish color. [C]Black tea and green tea
also differ in terms of their caffeine levels.Black tea is typically high in caffeine, containing about half as
much caffeine as a cup of coffee. Green tea is usually lower in caffeine, containing about half as much
caffeine as black tea. There are some exceptions; however, green teas grown under tree cover tend to have a
higher caffeine content. [D]
Some tea drinkers prefer green tea while others are devoted consumers of black tea. Whether it is green or
black tea, both will support your overall health when you drink them in moderation.They are low in calories,
especially when a person does not add sugar. Ways of adjusting the flavor without adding sugar or
sweeteners include blending the tea with spices, such as cinnamon, adding lemon juice or mint.
(Source: adapted from />Question 44: According to the passage, what makes green tea and black tea different?

Question 46: What does the word "they" in bold in paragraph 2 refer to?
A. natural processes
B. environmental pressures
C. antioxidant compounds
D. free radicals
Question 47: According to the passage, which of the following compounds gives black tea its color?
A. theaflavins
B. tannins
C. catechins
D. flavonoids
Question 48: It can be inferred from the passage that ___________
A. Both black and green teas have the same amount of caffeine as coffee.
B. People like black tea more than green tea because of their higher caffeine levels.
C. Green teas grown in shaded areas contain more caffein than normal.
D. Black tea and green tea are preferred to coffee because of their low caffeine levels.
Question 49: According to the passage, which is NOT a similarity between green tea and black tea?
A. They can cure heart diseases and cancers.
B. They should be consumed moderately.
C. They originate from the same plant species.
D. They do not contain a lot of calories.
Question 50: In which space (marked [A], [B], [C] and [D] in the passage) will the following sentence fit?
This means that the leaves turn brown or black, with green no longer present anywhere on the leaf.
Write a paragraph of 120-150 words on the following topic
Question 51: What are the effects of deforestation?

The word 'Viking' comes from Old Norse, the language that was spoken in Scandinavian countries
throughout the Viking Age - generally believed to be from the late 8th century until 1066 C E. It means
'pirate raid'. But while some Vikings were fierce warriors, many were farmers, traders and merchants who
travelled overseas, either to exchange goods or search for new places to settle.
The Vikings were skilled craftsmen who built magnificent wooden ships known as longboats. They sailed
(and rowed when there was a lack of wind) from Denmark, Finland, Norway and Sweden to the UK,
mainland Europe, Iceland and Greenland, and even across the Atlantic to North America - 500 years before
explorer Christopher Columbus. This is quite remarkable, considering they didn't have maps or charts to help
with navigation. Instead, it's thought that they paid attention to the position of the sun and stars, or estimated
how far they were from land by the color of the sea and the birds flying overhead.
As well as expert boat builders, Vikings were talented carpenters, blacksmiths and jewellers, who made
swords, spears and axes to use in battles, and tools to farm their land. They also spun wool and flax into cloth
to make clothes. Rings, made from silver and bronze, were worn by both men and women, and not only on
their fingers. Surprisingly, for the time in history, and compared with other cultures, Viking women were
given a notable amount of freedom, which allowed some of them to become rich and powerful. While men
were away trading or raiding, women were in charge at home, taking care their farms and families. They
could own property, request a divorce and even reclaim a dowry (property or money brought by a bride to
her husband) if their marriage ended. Only a tiny percentage, known as shieldmaidens, were involved in
raiding or fighting. Children were expected to help with daily chores. From the age of about five, girls and
boys looked after farm animals, gathered firewood and cooked. They had a few toys, such as small wooden
ships and dolls, and would listen to sagas and songs in the evening.
For about 270 years, the Vikings travelled much of the globe, and ships left Scandinavia for destinations as
far afield as Russia and Asia, as well as North America. But their explorations, and certainly the violent
ravaging and conflicts, all came to a somewhat abrupt and gory end in 1066, when - at the Battle of Stamford
Bridge, in the East Riding of Yorkshire - the English army successfully repelled the Viking invaders. A
defeated army returned home, and Viking dominance diminished.
