*Questions 4 through 6 refer to the following article
Approximately one-third of the Earth's land surface is desert, acid land with
meager rainfall that supports only sparse vegetation and a limited population of
people and animals. Deserts have been portrayed as fascinating environments of
adventure and exploration. These arid regions are called deserts because they
are dry. They may be hot. They may be cold. They may be regions of sand or
vast areas of rocks with occasional plants.
Deserts are natural laboratories in which to study the interactions of wind and
sometimes water on the arid surfaces of planets. They contain valuable mineral
deposits that were formed in the arid environment or that were exposed by
erosion. Because deserts are dry, they are ideal places for human artifacts and
fossils to be preserved. Deserts are also fragile environments. The misuse of
these lands is a serious and growing problem in parts of our world.

Part VII: Reading Comprehension

• Questions 1 through 3 refer to the following information

The second half of the twentieth century saw more changes in technology than in
previous two hundred years. Penicillin has already been discovered and used to
treat infections; there have been many remarkable advances in medicine that
have helped to increase our average life expectancy way beyond that of our
ancestors. Incredible innovations such as television have changed the way we
spend our leisure hours. Perhaps the most important breakthrough, however, has
been the microchip. Nobody could have imagined, when it was first invented, that
within a matter of years, this tiny piece of silicon and circuitry would be found in
almost every household object from the kettle to the video recorder. And nobody
could have predicted the sudden proliferation of computers that would completely
change our lives, allowing us to access information from the other side of the
world via the Internet or send messages around the world by e-mail at the touch
of a button. Meanwhile, research into other aspects of information technology is
making it easier and cheaper for us to "talk to friends and relations around the
world.
1. What period saw more changes in technology than in previous two
hundred years?
A. 1800-1850
B. 1850-1900
C. 1900-1950
D. 1950-2000
2. Thanks to advances in medicine we now........than our ancestors.

B. live longer
C. die faster
D. die more
3. Which of the following can't the computer help us........?
A. access information

B. do homework
C. cook meals
D. send messages
*Questions 4 through 6 refer to the following information
Western people rely on technical and mechanical solutions in everything they do.
Refrigerators preserve their food, washing machines clean their underwear and
computers are supposed to solve all their problems. When they are ill, they rely
on the surgeon's knife. If their hearts are running down, then they must be
repaired; if they cannot be repaired, they should be replaced, just as an old car
sometimes gets a new engine. But up to now we have had a shortage of donors
to give their hearts: to keep one person alive, another donor had to die.
9


Nowadays there is more and more talk about using monkeys. Every monkey has
a near-human heart, and humans have always been over careful in respecting
the lives and well-being of other animals. This includes the life and well-being of
other humans. Therefore, in the early years of the 21 st century - I was told - the
mass killings of monkeys may occur. We'll need to use their hearts for human
consumption.
Monkeys, on the whole, are happier creatures than their near relatives,
Homo Sapiens, or man. They know fear, of course, and they face real dangers,
but they are also more intelligent than us. They create no unnecessary dangers
for themselves; they run no businesses, chase no money, are unimpressed by
gold - that utterly useless metal, and they do not care at all about hell or evil
spirits. I have a vague feeling that it is not monkeys' hearts that we ought to
implant in ourselves, but monkeys' brains.
4. According to the author, Westerns believe health problems can be
solved by …….
A. spending more money on scientific research

B. taking more precautions
C. using technical or mechanical methods
D. increasing the number of doctors
5. The problem with heart transplants has been that.........
A. artificial hearts do not work very well
B. there are not usually enough donors
C. some of the heart honors are too old
D. many people die after the operations
6. The author suggests that in the future.........
A. people will care less about other human beings
B. monkey hearts will form part of our diet
C. monkeys will become extinct
D. monkey hearts will be used in transplant operations

Part VII: Reading Comprehension
• Questions 1 through 3 refer to the following information
Scientists believe they now have scientific evidence to prove that ecosystems
work better when there is a greater variety of species within them. This
biodiversity is being lost destroying natural mechanisms that could repair the
damage caused by man.
Findings show that losing plants and animals is not only reducing our
quality of life but actually endangering our very existence. We cut down rich rainforests and replace them with one species plantations, such as pine and
eucalyptus. We plough up meadows rich in different grasses and herbs and
replace them with one grass, for instance rye or wheat.
13


When a natural ecosystem is simplified the basic processes in the
ecosystem are altered and even damaged. Without their biodiversity they are not
able to serve as the natural cleaners of our planet. No longer are they able to
absorb the carbon dioxide that is being produced in excess. The result is global
warming, caused by the increase in the "greenhouse effect", and ultimately, or
even sooner, there will be a change in the world's climate.

1. Which of the following is the best title for the passage?
A. How Ecosystems Work Better
B. The Loss of Biodiversity
C. The Variety of Species
D. Natural Mechanisms
2. Which of the following is NOT a species used to replace a rich
ecosystem?
A. Herbs
B. Pine
C. Eucalyptus
D. Rye
3. What, according to the passage, might be the final result of the
simplification of natural ecosystems?
A. The basic processes are altered.
B. There is loss of biodiversity.
C. There is global warming.
D. There is a change in the climate.
*Questions 4 through 6 refer to the following information
BUNGEE JUMPING
Have you ever heard of bungee jumping? To do a bungee jump you jump
from a high bridge, or some other high place, with just a rubber rope tied around
your ankles. When the rope goes as far as it can, you are pulled back towards
the bridge. Then you fall down and come up again. This goes on again and again
until the rope finally stops moving and you hang in the air, upside-down. Then
you are pulled back up to the bridge. If there is a river below the bridge, you will
be allowed to reach the water slowly, where a boat picks you up. The first bungee
jump took place in Queenstown, in New Zealand, on 12 November 1988. Since
then, almost half a million people have tried it and Queenstown has become
famous for it. More than 90% of the people are on vacation there. Many of the
tourists have come just to do the bungee jump. It has become such a popular

event that you can now bungee jump in many countries around the world.
The reason for its popularity is that it is so very exciting. It isn't very often
that people get the chance to jump off a bridge and survive! People pay US$85
for the experience. Another reason is that it is quite safe if the correct rope is
used and checked regularly.
However, there have been accidents (though not in New Zealand) when
the rope broke. There's not much chance of surviving the fall if this happens, and
some deaths have been reported.
14


Bungee jumping first started a long time ago, in the Polynesian islands in
the Pacific Ocean. The young boys there had to jump from a tall tower with a
rope made from plants tied around their ankles. They did this to show that they
were brave enough to become men.
4. In a bungee jump ........
A. you climb up a long robe to a bridge
B. you jump off a bridge to help a person who has fallen into the river
C. you jump into a river and then climb onto a boat
D. you jump from a high place towards a river
5. More than 90% of all the people
A. in Queenstown are there on holiday
B. in Queenstown have done a bungee jump
C. on holiday in Queenstown have done a bungee jump .
D. who have done a bungee jump did it in Queenstown
6. Why do so many people like bungee jumping?
A. Because it is very exciting.
B. Because it costs only US$85.
C. Because it is safe.
D. Because they want to show they are brave enough to become men,

Part VII: Reading Comprehension
• Questions 1 through 3 refer to the following biography.
Elizabeth Blackwell was born in England in 1821 and emigrated to New York City
when she was ten years old. One day she decided that she wanted to become a
doctor, which was nearly impossible for a woman in the middle of the nineteenth
century. After writing many letters seeking admission to medical schools, she was
finally accepted by a doctor in Philadelphia. So determined was she that she
gave music lessons to earn money for her tuition. In 1849, after graduating from
medical school, she decided to further her education in Paris. She wanted to be a
surgeon, but a serious eye infection forced her to abandon the idea.
Upon returning to the United States, she found it difficult to start her own
practice because she was a woman. By 1857, Elizabeth and her sister, also a
doctor, along with another female doctor, managed to open a new hospital, the

first for women and children. Besides being the first female physician in the
18


United States and founding her own hospital, she also established the first
medical school for women.
1. Why couldn't Elizabeth Blackwell realize her dream of becoming a
surgeon?
A. She couldn't get admitted to medical school.
B. She determined to further her education in Paris.
C. A serious eye infection halted her quest.
D. It was difficult for her to start practice in the United States.
2. What main obstacle almost destroyed Elizabeth's chances for becoming
a doctor?
A. She couldn't graduate from medical school.
B. She wrote too many letters.
C. She couldn't afford the tuition.
D. She was a woman.
3. How old was Elizabeth Blackwell when she graduated from medical
school?
A. 21
B.28
C.36
D. 42

*Questions 4 through 6 refer to the following information
Between 1977 and 1981, three groups of American women, numbering 27 in all,
between the ages of 35 and 65, were given month-long tests to determine how
they would respond to conditions resembling those abroad the space shuttle.
Though carefully selected from among many applicants, the women were

volunteers and pay was barely above the minimum wage. They were not allowed
to smoke or drink alcohol during the tests, and they were expected to tolerate
each other's company at close quarters for the entire period. Among other things,
they had to stand pressure three times the force of gravity and carry out both
physical and mental tasks while exhausted from strenuous physical exercise. At
the end of ten days, they had to spend a further twenty days absolutely confined
to bed, during this time they suffered backaches and discomforts, and when they
were finally allowed up, the more physically women were especially subject to
pains due to a slight calcium loss. Results of the test suggest that women will
have significant advantages over men in space. They need less food and less
oxygen and they stand up to radiation better. Men's advantages in term of
strength and stamina, meanwhile, are virtually wiped out by the zero-gravity
condition in space.
4. For how long was each woman tested?
A. four days
B. twenty days
C. twenty-seven months
D. one month

5. What was the average number of women in each group tested?
A.9

signed in April 2003 between the World Health Organization (WHO), the 22nd
SEA Games Organizing Committee and the Vietnamese Ministry of Health.

awareness about the tobacco-free SEA Games.
The 22nd SEA Games is the first games hosted by Vietnam and 10 countries
from the Southeast Asian region with nearly 8,000 athletes and coaches will
participate. It will be the first tobacco-free international sporting event in Vietnam,
joining other international tobacco-free sporting events such as the FIFA World
Cup 2002, and the Winter Olympic Games 2002.
The 22nd SEA Games will ban all sales, advertising and other promotion of
tobacco products, and restricts smoking in all Games venues. The aim is to

attitudes about the social acceptability of smoking.
Madame Pascale Brudon, WHO Representative in Vietnam, stated, "Vietnam
has established 3 years ago a comprehensive, ambitious national tobacco
control policy and a national tobacco control program. The tobacco-free 22nd
SEA Games will be yet another area where Vietnam is leading the way for other
countries in the region and the world in protecting its citizens from the debilitating
and disastrous consequences of tobacco use."
