VI. 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 questions from 20 to 24.
Traveling is one of the most popular forms of recreation in the USA. Most American employees
receive an annual vacation with pay, and it is a good time off for traveling. Traveling within the country is
popular because foreign travel generally takes more time and money. However, Americans who wish to
vacation outside the USA are free to go almost anywhere. Obtaining a passport is a routine matter. Every
year about 13 million Americans travel abroad. The most popular vacation periods are during the summer
and during the two-week school break on the Christmas and New Year’s holidays. These periods are also
the most crowded and generally the most expensive time to travel, so people who can adjust their
schedules sometimes choose to vacation in the autumn. American vacationers often travel by car. Most
families have a car, and those who do not have can rent one. Cars are usually the economical way to
travel, especially for the families. It is also fairly fast and convenient. Excellent highways connect the major
cities. They enable vacationers to travel at an almost steady speed of 55 or 65 miles an hour. Tourists that
want to travel faster often fly to their destination and then rent a car to go around when they get there.

Our demand for water is constantly increasing. Every year there are more and more people in the
world. Factories turn out more and more products and need more and more water. We live in a world of
water. But almost all of it - about 97% - is in the oceans. This water is too salty to be used for drinking,
farming, and manufacturing. Only about 3% of the world's water is fresh. Most of this water is not easily
available to man because it is locked in glaciers and icecaps.
There is as much water on earth today as there ever was or will ever be. Most of the water we use
finds its way to the oceans. There, it is evaporated by the sun. It then falls back to the earth as rain. Water is
used and reused over again. It is never used up. Although the world as a whole has plenty of fresh water,
some regions have a water shortage. Rain does not fall evenly over the earth. Some regions are always too
dry, and others too wet. A region that usually gets enough rain may suddenly have a serious dry spell and
another region may be flooded with too much rain.
36. All of the following statements can be inferred from the text EXCEPT
A. We need more and more water.

I've always been a bit of an entertainer and played the funny man.
I was a part-time comedian for years, so I learned how to stand in front of audiences. It made me
sure of myself. I like being liked and I love making everyone smile.
I've lived in London all my life and have just moved to a larger house with my wife Clare and
our two children, Jimmy and Madeleine. We spend a lot of time just singing and dancing around the
house. I grew up with music because my dad is the pianist, Chester Harriott - who's still playing, by
the way. My working day is divided between television and writing cook books, though TV takes
most of my time. I spend about five days a fortnight working on the cooking programmes I appear
in. I eat all sorts of things at home but I only buy quality food. When I'm cooking, I experiment with
whatever is in the fridge - it's good practice for my TV series.
I'm a football fan and enjoy going to matches, but I'm a homeloving person really. I don't like
going to the pub but we do go out to eat about twice a month. There's nothing better than a night at
home playing with the children. I rarely go to bed before midnight. Late evening is when fresh
thoughts on cooking usually come to me, so I often write and plan my programmes then. When I
eventually get to bed, I have no trouble sleeping!
31. What is the writer's main purpose in writing the text?

D. He enjoys spending time with his
family.
33. What does the writer say about himself?
A. He loves going out and meeting people.
B. He is very similar to his father.
C. He enjoys being popular.
D. He should go to bad early.
34. What does he say about his working life?
A. He would like to appear less on TV.
B. He gets his best ideas at certain
times.
C. He prefers being a comedian.
D. He should practise cooking more.

social life.
B. The TV cook who loves making people laugh, watching football and, above all,
having a happy family life.
C. The singing TV cook who likes making jokes, playing with his children, and having an
early night.

Education is not an end, but a means to an end. In other words, we do not educate children only for
the purpose of educating them. Our purpose is to fit them for life.
In some modern countries it has, for some time, been fashionable to think that by free education for
all – whether rich or poor, clever or stupid – one can solve all the problems of society and build a perfect
nation. But we can already see that free education for all is not enough, we find in such countries a large
number of people with university degree; they refuse to do what they think “low” work; and, in fact, work with
hands is thought to be dirty and shameful in such countries. But we have only to think a moment to
understand that the work of a completely uneducated farmer is far more important than that of a professor;

we can live without education, but we die if we have no food. If no one cleaned our streets and took the
rubbish away from our house, we should get terrible diseases in your towns. In fact, when we say that all of
us must be educated to fit us for life, it means that we must be educated in such a way that, firstly, each of us
can do whatever work suited to our brains and ability and, secondly, that we can realize that all jobs are
necessary to society, and that is very bad to be ashamed of one’s work. Only such a type of education can
be considered valuable to society.
33. The writer wants to prove that _____________.
A. our society needs all kinds of jobs.
B. our society needs free education for all
C. a farmer is more important than a professor
D. people with high education refuse to do what they think “low” work
34. According to the passage _____________.
A. work with hands is dirty and shameful
B. work with hands is low work
C. work with hands is the most important
D. we can’t regard work with hands as low work

you look down or to the side when you are talking, you may appear hiding something, that is, it might
seem that you are not honest. However, people who are speaking will sometimes look away for a few
seconds when they are thinking or trying to find the right word. But they always turn immediately back to
look the listener in the eyes. These social rules are the same for two women, two men, a woman and a

During the 19th century, it was common to hear people in Europe and America say that the resources of the
sea are unlimited. For example, a noted biologist writing in the mid-19 th century commented that none of the
great sea fisheries is to be exhausted. Today though, there is evidence that the resources of the sea are as
seriously endangered as those of the land and the air, and that the endangered species include Herring and
Carp as well as the African Elphant, Indian Tiger and the American Eagle.
Futhermore, the threats to fish are more alarming in some ways than the threats to animals and birds.
This is because fishes are a much neede food resources and people throughout the world depend on fish as
an important part of their dish, and the decline in the fish supply could have extensive effects on hunger and
population. Fishermen in the North Atlantic alone annually harvest 20 billion pounds of fish to satisfy food

* Read the passage carefully and choose the correct answer.
Reading, as you know, is a continuous and never ending process. If you do very little reading, or if
you read only material that offers no challenge to your comprehension, your reading will be of very little use.
Once we reach a certain age, or once our formal schooling is completed, many of us become so restricted in
our choice of reading that we rarely read any new type of reading experience. We tend to read only books in
our professional or business field, or only inspirational books, or only our favorite newspapers every morning,
or only one magazine for which we have developed a preference. And the trouble starts here. You should
neither read only for entertainment nor only for information but you should also read for intellectual growth,
for mental stimulation, for enriching your background of knowledge, for wisdom, and for broader outlook and
mature understanding. What kind of books should you read to continue your intellectual growth, to gain a
background for opinion and for judgment? The answer is simple one: Read books in fields you have little or
no acquaintance with, books that will open for you new horizons of learning, books that will help you explore
new areas of knowledge and experience, books that will make the world and people more understandable to
you. Sadly, more and more people today are giving up the printed word in favor of being entertained and
informed by watching TV, a popular entertainment ,device present at almost homes. More and more children
are being subjected to TV programming, perhaps as a babysitter. More than two hours of TV time per day

Along with jogging and swimming, cycling is one of the best all-round forms of exercise. It can help
to increase your strength and energy, giving you more efficient muscles and stronger heart. But increasing
your strength is not the only advantage of cycling. Because you’re not carrying the weight of your body on
your feet, it’s a good form of exercise for people with painful feet or backs. However, with all forms of
exercise it’s important to start slowly and build up gently. Doing too much too quickly can damage muscles
that aren’t used to working. If you have any doubts about taking up cycling for health reasons, talk to your

doctor and ask his/her advice.
Ideally you should be cycling at least two or three times a week. For the exercise to be doing you
good, you should get a little out of breath. Don’t worry that if you begin to lose your breath, it could be
dangerous and there must be something wrong with your heart. This is simply not true; shortness of breath
shows that the exercise is having the right effect. However, if you find you are in pain then you should stop
and take a rest.
36. According to the writer, it is best to go cycling ___________
A. once a week
B. at least two or three times a month
C. at least two or three times a week
D. every day
37. All forms of exercise must be started ___________
A. quickly
B. gradually
C. strenuously D. violently
38. People with back problems might go cycling because ___________
A. it enables them to carry the weight of their body on their feet
B. it helps them to relieve their backache
C. it helps to make their backs become stronger
D. it does not make them carry the weight of their body on their feet
39. You should not worry about the shortness of breath because ___________
A. it is a sign of exercise having the right effect
B. it shows that you should stop and take a rest
C. it shows that there is something wrong with your heart
D. it is a sign of your getting rid of your heart problem
