Sample:
After leaving school or university, young people should choose a job or career that they love, rather
than one that pays the best salary. I would like to choose teaching as my career for some reasons.
First of all, I can learn many things, especially if I teach to an udder-secondary school. If I teach

History or English, for example, I have to read many books to make my teaching lessons more
interesting to my pupils. Thus, I can acquire more knowledge of the subjects that I teach than what I
can learn from the class text books. It is indeed a fact that a teacher learns a lot from the class text
books; but that is hardly enough to make the teacher's lessons interesting to pupils. A good teacher
must therefore read many other books.
Secondly, as a teacher, I have to speak well so that my pupils will be able to understand my
instructions well. In this way I can improve my powers of expression. Even my pronunciation of words
will improve to great extent.
Further, as a teacher, I shall have enough leisure to read and prepare for various examinations. It is
possible today to sit for many important examinations by studying entirely at home. Thus, I can
acquire important qualifications.
Finally, as a teacher I will be respected as an educated person. People will assume that I have certain
qualifications and show their regard for me and the opinions that I express. Thus, I shall be able to live
a happy life.
In conclusion, I would like to be a teacher and I will be try my best to make my dream come true.

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 following questions from 50 to 59.
Although speech is the most advanced form of communication, there are many ways of
communicating without using speech. Signals, signs, symbols, and gestures may be found in every known
culture. The basic function of signal is to impinge upon the environment in such a way that it attracts
attention, as. For example, the dots and dashes of a telegraph circuit. Coded to refer to speech, the
potential for communication is very great. Less adaptable to the codification of words, signs also contain
meaning in and of themselves. A stop sign or a barber pole conveys meaning quickly and conveniently.
Symbols are more difficult to describe than either signals or signs because of their intricate relationship
with the receiver‟s cultural perceptions. In some cultures, applauding in a theater provides performers
with an auditory symbol of approval. Gestures such as waving and handshaking also communicate certain
cultural messages.
Although signals, signs, symbols, and gestures are very useful, they do have a major disadvantage.
They usually do not allow ideas to be shared without the sender being directly adjacent to the receiver. As
a result, means of communication intended to be used for long distances and extended periods are based
upon speech. Radio, television, and the telephone are only a few.
Question 50: Which of the following would be the best title for the passage?
A. Gestures
B. Signs and signals
C. Speech
D. Communication
Question 51: What does the author say about speech?

A. It is dependent upon the advances made by inventors.
B. It is the most advanced form of communication.
C. It is necessary for communication to occur.
D. It is the only true form of communication.

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 following questions from 60 to 64.
In the mid – nineteenth century, the United States had tremendous natural resources that could be
exploited in order to develop heavy industry. Most of the raw materials that are valuable in the
manufacture of machinery, transportation facilities, and consumer goods lay ready to be worked into
wealth. Iron, coal, and oil – the basic ingredients of industrial growth – were plentiful and needed only the
application of technical expertise, organizational skill, and labor.
One crucial development in this movement toward industrialization was the growth of the
railroads. The railway network expanded rapidly until the railroad map of the United States looked like a
spider‟s web, with the steel filaments connecting all important sources of raw materials, their places of

manufacture, and their centers of distribution. The railroads contributed to the industrial growth not only
by connecting these major centers, but also by themselves consuming enormous amounts of fuel, iron,
and coal.
Many factors influenced emerging modes of production. For example, machine tools, the tools
used to make goods, were steadily improved in the latter part of the nineteenth century – always with an
eye to speedier production and lower unit costs. The products of the factories were rapidly absorbed by
the growing cities that sheltered the workers and the distributors. The increased urban population was
nourished by the increased farm production that, in turn, was made more productive by the use of the new
farm machinery. American agricultural production kept up with the urban demand and still had surpluses
for sale to the industrial centers of Europe.
The labor that ran the factories and built the railways was recruited in part from American farm
areas where people were being displaced by farm machinery, in part from Asia, and in part from Europe.
Europe now began to send tides of immigrants from eastern and southern Europe – most of whom were
originally poor farmers but who settled in American industrial cities. The money to finance this
tremendous expansion of the American economy still came from European financiers for the most part,
but the American were approaching the day when their expansion could be financed in their own “ money
market”.
Question 60: What does the passage mainly discuss?
A. The history of railroads in the United States
B. The major United States industrial centers

D. they used relatively small quantities of natural resources

A. They lost some jobs because of mechanization
B. They were unable to produce sufficient food for urban areas
C. They raised their productivity by using new machinery
D. They sold food to European countries
Question 64: The word “ ran” in the paragraph 4 is closest in meaning to _________
A. operated

After graduating upper secondary school, the job I like best is to become a student at University of Languages
International and Studies, and I want to be an English teacher in the future . The reason I choose this job is that I
would like to provide children with my knowledge, as well as communication skills I get. Besides, teaching makes
a difference in children, because I give them tools to help them be successful in the future. The next reason is that I
feel s lot of schools in the community need hard working, caring, and responsible teachers, and I want to become a
part of it. My duty is to study hard so that I can pass the next entrance examination, which is a basic key to keep me
close to my dream.

I. Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, or D on your answer sheet to indicate the
word or phrase that best fits each of the numbered blanks.
The Planets of Jupiter
The largest of the giant gas planets, Jupiter, with a volume 1,300 times greater than Earth’s, contains more
than twice the mass of all the other planets combined. It is thought to be a gaseous and fluid planet without
solid surfaces, Had it been somewhat more massive, Jupiter might have attained internal temperatures as high
as the ignition point for nuclear reactions, and it would have flamed as a star in its own right. Jupiter and the
other giant planets are of a low-density type quite distinct from the terrestrial planets: they are composed
predominantly of such substances as hydrogen, helium, ammonia, and methane, unlike terrestrial planets.
Much of Jupiter’s interior might be in the form of liquid, metallic hydrogen, Normally, hydrogen is a gas, but

under pressures of millions of kilograms per square centimeter, which exist in the deep interior of Jupiter, the
hydrogen atoms might lock together to form a liquid with the properties of a metal. Some scientists believe
that the innermost core of Jupiter might be rocky, or metallic like the core of Earth.
Jupiter rotates very fast, once every 9.8 hours. As a result, its clouds, which are composed largely of frozen
and liquid ammonia, have been whipped into alternating dark and bright bands that circle the planet at
different speeds in different latitudes. Jupiter’s puzzling Great Red Spot changes size as it hovers in the
Southern Hemisphere. Scientists speculate it might be a gigantic hurricane, which because of its large size (the
Earth could easily fit inside it), lasts for hundreds of years.
Jupiter gives off twice as much heat as it receives from the Sun. Perhaps this is primeval heat or beat
generated by the continued gravitational contraction of the planet. Another star like characteristic of Jupiter is
its sixteen natural satellites, which, like a miniature model of the Solar System, decrease in density with
distance from rocky moons close to Jupiter to icy moons farther away. If Jupiter were about 70 times more
massive, it would have become a star, Jupiter is the best-preserved sample of the early solar nebula, and with
its satellites, might contain the most important clues about the origin of the Solar System.
