Questions 6-10: Read the following passage and then circle the best answer
Snake Lovers
Around the world there are men and women who make their living in unusual ways. Most of us
would not do such jobs for a day, let alone pursue them as a lifelong career. However, the lifespan
of these people may not be that long. They spend their days working with snakes.
Boonreung Bauchan is listed in the book of Guinness World Records for his feat of spending
seven days in a pen filled with snakes. This Thai snake charmer performed with his pet snakes to
earn money to support his family. During his performances, he danced with snakes, held them
around his body, and even kissed them. One day, a cobra kissed him back. He died before he
reached the hospital. Although he left behind several boxes of pet snakes, no one in his family was
bold enough to touch them. Instead of carrying on with the snake shows, they decided to donate the
snakes to the zoo.
In Australia, John Cann carries on his family’s tradition of reptile shows. His parents started
their snake circus in 1919. Cann's mother was called Cleopatra after the queen of Egypt who was
lethally bitten by a snake. Both parents survived their profession and retired in good health. Their
son has made good use of his lifelong experience with snakes. He now advises the Australia
Museum on reptiles and has written several books on snakes and turtles. His goal is not only to
entertain, but also to educate his audience on the value of these reptiles and their important role in
the environment.
In India, Romulus Whitaker doesn’t charm snakes or entertain his audience, but he is an active
educator and environmentalist. He caught his first snake when he was just three. Now he is the
director of the Madras Crocodile Bank and advises major international organizations on protecting
the habitat of reptiles. Whitaker may be in need of protection himself. He has been bitten three
times, but he doesn’t blame the snakes. He says he’s more afraid of people than of snakes.
6. What is this passage mainly about?

A. Snake shows B. The dangers of snakes
C. Snakes in different countries D. People working with snakes and other reptiles
7. What happened after Boonreung Bauchan died from a cobra bite?
A. The cobra was killed B. People bought his pet snakes.
C. His family gave his snakes away. D. His family continued giving snake shows.
8. Who is Romulus Whitaker?
A. An entertainer B. A snake charmer
C. A crocodile trainer D. An environmentalist
9. What is probably true about Boonreung Bauchan’s family?
A. They enjoy playing with snakes. B. They are environmentalists.
C. They are not wealthy. D. They like cobras.
10. What does ‘shows’ mean in paragraph 2?

C. presents D. give evidence of having or being

Question 6-10
Read the following passage and then circle the best answer A, B,C, or D
Jeanne Dixon
Jeanne Dixon began making predictions when she was a little girl. She had a crystal ball that
she used to look into the future. She correctly predicted several events, including the death of her
grandfather. She also learned to use astrology. When she was just eight years old, a palm reader
told her fortune. The palm reader said that Jeanne would become famous for her unique ability to
predict the future.
Dixon made many predictions about the future throughout her life, but the one that brought her
the most fame was her prediction of the assassination of President Kennedy. In 1952, she had a
vision. She saw a man with blue eyes living in the White House. He was going to die a violent
death. Eight years later, John Kennedy, a man with blue eyes, became president of the United
States. On November 22
nd
, 1963, Jeanne told her friends, “Something terrible is going to happen
today.” Then, they heard an announcement. President Kennedy had been shot.
Another of Dixon’s major predictions was the death of President Kennedy’s brother Robert.
One day, she was walking through a hotel in Los Angeles. Suddenly, she stopped and said, “Robert
Kennedy is going to be killed here.” Soon after that, in June 1968, Robert Kennedy was shot in that
exact place.
Dixon accurately predicted the deaths of several other celebrities. She also predicted other kinds

of events, for example, a big earthquake in Alaska in 1964. She made a number of wrong
predictions as well, but people don’t seem to remember as many of these.
Dixon didn’t keep any fees she earned from making predictions. She donated all the money to a
charity that supported educational and health projects for children. She was a vegetarian and often
prepared healthy food for elderly people. She also liked to help animals and took care of many lost
cats and dogs.
Jeanne Dixon died in 1997, but she left behind several predictions which could still come true.
One of them is that intelligent life will be discovered on another planet.

Question 6-10

Wong Tai Sin Temple
Wong Tai Sin Temple, with its colorful architecture and peaceful gardens, sits among the high-rise
buildings of Hong Kong. It is one of the more popular places to visit in the city. It is especially
known for the fortune-tellers that work there.
People visit the temple to honor Wong Tai Sin, a shepherd who lived hundreds of years ago.
According to legend, at the age of fifteen he learned the secret of making a medicine that could
cure all illnesses. He lived alone for forty years while he worked to perfect this magic medicine.
Nowadays, visitors to the temple bring flowers and incense as offerings for Wong Tai Sin. They
pray for good health and for good luck in business. Most of all, they pray for guidance for the
future. This is because Wong Tai Sin was known not only for his ability to cure illnesses, but also
for his skill at correctly predicting the future. The temple has the largest concentration of fortune-
tellers in Asia. There can be as many as 150 fortune-tellers working there at any one time.
The most common fortune-telling method at the temple is the use of fortune sticks, called chim.
Each chim has a number on it. You shake a container of sticks until one falls out. Then, you take
the stick to a fortune- teller, who will interpret it for you. If you want to try something different,
there are other fortune-telling methods to choose from. For a small fee, a fortune-teller will read
your face or palm, consult the ancient book, the I Ching, or use astrology to predict your future.
Wong Tai Sin Temple is known for its brightly colored buildings decorated with beautiful
paintings and intricate carvings. It also contains the Good Wish Garden with a stream, waterfall,
and ponds. If you want to know your future, or just want to enjoy a few moments of the present in
a beautiful spot, visit Wong Tai Sin Temple.

Question 6-10
Read the following passage and then circle the best answer A, B,C, or D
Tea Leaves
The art of predicting the future with tea leaves has been practiced in both Asia and Europe for
centuries. It’s not hard to try doing it yourself.
First, brew yourself a cup of tea. You can use any kind of loose tea, but it’s best to drink it from
a wide, white cup. This makes it easy to see the leaves. Relax and enjoy your tea. Drink it all, but
leave a spoonful at the bottom of the cup. Now pick up the cup and move it three times from right
to left. Turn it upside down over a saucer to let the liquid drain out. Turn it right side up again, and
now you are ready to read the leaves.
When you interpret the leaves, pay attention to their position in the cup. Leaves near the top
represent the near future, while leaves near the bottom represent the distant future. Leaves near the
cup’s handle represent yourself or your home. The images in the leaves aren’t always distinct, but
if you look carefully, some pictures will appear.
Both birds and airplanes mean that you will make a journey. Birds also represent good
luck. A cross or a snake, on the other hand, means that bad luck will come your way. A baby
means that you will have small worries. Ladders and stars mean that you will reach your dream.
Apples mean the same.
If you need money, look for a diamond, but be careful of clouds. Diamonds mean that you will

receive money unexpectedly, but clouds mean that you will have financial problems. If you are
looking for love, maybe you will see a moon or a cage in the leaves. A moon represents romance,
and a cage represents marriage.
Both trees and books are lucky symbols. Trees represent good health and long life,
and an open book means good news. Eyeglasses mean that good and surprising things will happen.
Everybody likes to relax with a steaming cup of fragrant tea, but it can be more than
just a delicious drink. After you’ve enjoyed your tea, don’t throw away the leaves until you’ve read
your future.
