Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, or D on your answer sheet to
indicate the correct word or phrase that best fits each of the numbered blanks.

The expression on your face can usually dramatically alter your feelings and perceptions, and it has
been proved that (36)……..….smiling or frowning can create corresponding emotional responses. The
idea was first (37)…………….by a French physiologist, Israel Waynbaum, in 1906. He believed that
different facial (38)…………….affected the flow of blood to the brain, and that this could create positive
or negative feelings. A happy smile or irrepressible (39)……………increased the blood flow and
contributed to joyful feelings. But sad, angry expressions decreased the flow of oxygen-carrying blood,
and created a vicious (40)……………of gloom and depression by effectively starving the brain of
essential fuel.
Psychologist Robert Zajonc rediscovered this early subject, and suggests that the temperature of the
brain could affect the production and synthesis of neurotransmitters – which definitely influence our
moods and energy levels. He argues that an impaired blood could not only deprive the brain of oxygen,
but create further chemical imbalance (41)…………….inhibiting these vital hormonal messages. Zajonc
goes on to propose that our brains remember smiling associated with being happy, and that by deliberately
smiling through your tears you can (42)……………your brain to release uplifting neurotransmitters –
replacing a depression condition (43)……………a happier one. People suffering from psychosomatic
(44)………., depression and anxiety states could (45)…………..from simply exercising their zygomatic
muscles –which pull the corners of the mouth up and back to form a smile- several times an hour.

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 46 to 55.

The Sun today is a yellow dwarf star. It is fueled by the thermonuclear reactions near its center that
convert hydrogen to helium. The sun has existed in its present state for about four billion six hundred
million years and is thousands of times larger than earth.
By studying the other stars, astronomers can predict what the rest of the sun’s life will be like. About
five billion years from now, the core of the sun will shrink and become hotter. The surface temperature
will fall. The higher temperature of center will increase the rate of thermonuclear reactions. The outer
regions of the sun will expand approximately 35 million miles, about the distance to Mercury, which is
the closest planet to the sun. The sun will then be a red giant star. Temperatures on the Earth will become
too high for life to exist.
Once the sun has used up its thermonuclear energy as a red giant, it will begin to shrink. After it
shrinks to the size of the earth, it will become a white dwarf star. The sun may throw off huge amounts of
gases in violent eruptions called nova explosions as it changes from a red giant to a white dwarf.
After billions of years as a white dwarf, the sun will have used up all its fuel and will have lost its heat.
Such a star is called a black dwarf. After the sun has become a black dwarf, the earth will be dark and
cold. If any atmosphere remains there, it will have frozen over the earth’s surface.
46. It can be inferred from the passage that the sun____________
A. is rapidly changing in size and brightness.
B. will continue to be a yellow dwarf for another 10 billion years
C. has been in existence for 10 billion years

D. is approximately halfway through its life as a yellow dwarf

Internet jobs
Contrary to popular belief, one does not have to be a trained programmer to work online. Of
course, there are plenty of jobs available for people with high-tech computer skills, but the growth of new
media has opened up a wide range of Internet career opportunities requiring only a minimal level of
technical expertise. Probably one of the most well-known online job opportunities is the job of
Webmaster. However, it is hard to define one basic job description for this position. The qualifications
and responsibilities depend on what tasks a particular organization needs a Webmaster to perform.

To specify the job description of a Webmaster, one needs to identify the hardware and software the
website the Webmaster will manage is running on. Different types of hardware and software require
different skill sets to manage them. Another key factor is whether the website will be running internally or
externally (renting shared space on the company servers). Finally, the responsibilities of a webmaster also
depend on whether he or she will be working independently, or whether the firm will provide people to
help. All of these factors need to be considered before one can create an accurate webmaster job
description.
Webmaster is one type of Internet career requiring in-depth knowledge of the latest computer
applications. However, there are also online jobs available for which traditional skills remain in high
demand. Content jobs require excellent writing skills and a good sense of the web as a “new media’.
The term “new media” is difficult to define because it compasses a constantly growing set of
new technologies and skills. Specifically, it includes websites, email, internet technology, CD-ROM,
DVD, streaming audio and video, interactive multimedia presentations, e-books, digital music, computer
illustration, video games, virtual reality, and computer artistry.

many of today’s Internet careers are becoming paid-by-the-job professions. With
many companies having to downsize in tough economic items, the outsourcing and contracting of
freelance workers online has become common business practice. The Internet provides an infinite pool of
buyers from around the world with whom freelancers can contract their services. An added benefit to such
online jobs is that freelancers are able to work on projects with companies outside their own country.
How much can a person make in these kinds of careers? As with many questions related to today’s
evolving technology, there is no simple answer. There are many companies willing to pay people with
Internet skills salaries well over $70,000 a year. Generally, webmasters start at about $30,000 per year,
but salaries can vary greatly. Freelance writers working online have been known to make between

$40,000 to $70,000 a year.
