XI. 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 .
In the world today, particularly in the two most industrialized areas, North America and Europe,
recycling is the big news. People are talking about it, practicing it, and discovering new ways to be
sensitive to the environment. Recycling means finding ways to use products a second time. The motto of
the recycling movement is "Reduce, Reuse, Recycle".
The first step is to reduce garbage. In stores, a shopper has to buy products in blister packs, boxes
and expensive plastic wrappings. A hamburger from a fast food restaurant comes in lots of packaging:
usually paper, a box, and a bag. All that packaging is wasted resources. People should try to buy things
that are wrapped simply, and to reuse cups and utensils. Another way to reduce waste is to buy highquality products. When low quality appliances break, many customers throw them away and buy new
ones - a loss of more resources and more energy. For example, if a customer buys a high-quality
appliance that can be easily repaired, the manufacturer receives an important message. In the same way,
if a customer chooses a product with less packaging, that customer sends an important message to the
manufacturers. To reduce garbage, the throwaway must stop.
The second step is to reuse. It is better to buy juices and soft drinks in returnable bottles. After
customers empty the bottles, they return them to the store. The manufacturers of the drinks collect the

bottles, wash them, and then fill them again. The energy that is necessary to make new bottles is saved. In
some parts of the world, returning bottles for money is a common practice. In those places, the garbage
dumps have relatively little glass and plastic from throwaway bottles.
The third step being environmentally sensitive is to recycle. Spent motor oil can be cleaned and
used again. Aluminum cans are expensive to make. It takes the same amount of energy to make one
aluminum can as it does to run a color TV set for three hours. When people collect and recycle
aluminum (for new cans), they help save one of the world's precious resources.
36. What is the main topic of the passage?
A. What people often understand about the term 'recycle'.
B. How to reduce garbage disposal.
C. How to live sensitively to the environment.
D. What is involved in the recycling movement.
37. Which is described as one of the most industrialized areas?
A. South America
B. Middle East
C. Europe
D. Asia
38. What does the word 'sensitive' in the phrase 'sensitive to the environment' in paragraph 1 mean?
A. logical
B. friendly
C. cautious
D. responding
39. People can do the following to reduce waste EXCEPT________.
A. buy simply-wrapped things
B. reuse cups
C. buy fewer hamburgers
D. buy high-quality products
40. Why is it a waste when customers buy low-quality products?
A. Because they produce less energy.
B. Because they have to be repaired many times.

C. Because people will soon throw them away.
D. Because customers change their ideas all the time.

In 776 B.C, the Olympic Games were held at the foot of Mount Olympus to honour the Greek's chief
god, Zeus. The warm climate for outdoor activities, the need for preparedness in war, and their lifestyle

caused the Greeks to create competitive sports. Only the elite and military could participate at first, but
later the Games were open to all free Greeks males who had no criminal record. The Greeks emphasized
physical fitness and strength in their education of youth. Therefore, contests in running, jumping, discus

competed every four years at Mount Olympus. Winners were greatly honoured by having olive wreaths
placed on their heads and having poems sung about their deeds. Originally these contests were held as
games of friendship, and any wars in progress were halted to allow the games to take place. They also
helped to strengthen bonds among competitors and the different cities represented. The Greeks attached
so much importance to the Games that they calculated time in four- year cycles called "Olympiads"
dating from 776 B.C. The contests coincided with religious festivities and constituted an all-out effort on
the part of the participants to please the gods. Any who disobeyed the rules were dismissed and seriously

XI. 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 .
In the world today, particularly in the two most industrialized areas, North America and Europe,
recycling is the big news. People are talking about it, practicing it, and discovering new ways to be
sensitive to the environment. Recycling means finding ways to use products a second time. The motto of
the recycling movement is "Reduce, Reuse, Recycle".
The first step is to reduce garbage. In stores, a shopper has to buy products in blister packs, boxes
and expensive plastic wrappings. A hamburger from a fast food restaurant comes in lots of packaging:
usually paper, a box, and a bag. All that packaging is wasted resources. People should try to buy things
that are wrapped simply, and to reuse cups and utensils. Another way to reduce waste is to buy highquality products. When low quality appliances break, many customers throw them away and buy new
ones - a loss of more resources and more energy. For example, if a customer buys a high-quality
appliance that can be easily repaired, the manufacturer receives an important message. In the same way,
if a customer chooses a product with less packaging, that customer sends an important message to the
manufacturers. To reduce garbage, the throwaway must stop.

The second step is to reuse. It is better to buy juices and soft drinks in returnable bottles. After
customers empty the bottles, they return them to the store. The manufacturers of the drinks collect the
bottles, wash them, and then fill them again. The energy that is necessary to make new bottles is saved. In
some parts of the world, returning bottles for money is a common practice. In those places, the garbage
dumps have relatively little glass and plastic from throwaway bottles.
The third step being environmentally sensitive is to recycle. Spent motor oil can be cleaned and
used again. Aluminum cans are expensive to make. It takes the same amount of energy to make one
aluminum can as it does to run a color TV set for three hours. When people collect and recycle
aluminum (for new cans), they help save one of the world's precious resources.

XI. 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 .
In the world today, particularly in the two most industrialized areas, North America and Europe,
recycling is the big news. People are talking about it, practicing it, and discovering new ways to be
sensitive to the environment. Recycling means finding ways to use products a second time. The motto of
the recycling movement is "Reduce, Reuse, Recycle".
The first step is to reduce garbage. In stores, a shopper has to buy products in blister packs, boxes
and expensive plastic wrappings. A hamburger from a fast food restaurant comes in lots of packaging:
usually paper, a box, and a bag. All that packaging is wasted resources. People should try to buy things
that are wrapped simply, and to reuse cups and utensils. Another way to reduce waste is to buy highquality products. When low quality appliances break, many customers throw them away and buy new
ones - a loss of more resources and more energy. For example, if a customer buys a high-quality
appliance that can be easily repaired, the manufacturer receives an important message. In the same way,
if a customer chooses a product with less packaging, that customer sends an important message to the
manufacturers. To reduce garbage, the throwaway must stop.
The second step is to reuse. It is better to buy juices and soft drinks in returnable bottles. After
customers empty the bottles, they return them to the store. The manufacturers of the drinks collect the
bottles, wash them, and then fill them again. The energy that is necessary to make new bottles is saved. In
some parts of the world, returning bottles for money is a common practice. In those places, the garbage
dumps have relatively little glass and plastic from throwaway bottles.
The third step being environmentally sensitive is to recycle. Spent motor oil can be cleaned and
used again. Aluminum cans are expensive to make. It takes the same amount of energy to make one

aluminum can as it does to run a color TV set for three hours. When people collect and recycle
aluminum (for new cans), they help save one of the world's precious resources.
36. What is the main topic of the passage?
A. How to reduce garbage disposal.
B. What is involved in the recycling movement.
C. What people often understand about the term 'recycle'.
D. How to live sensitively to the environment.
37. Which is described as one of the most industrialized areas?
A. Asia
B. Europe
C. Middle East
D. South America
38. What does the word 'sensitive' in the phrase 'sensitive to the environment' in paragraph 1 mean?
A. logical
B. responding
C. friendly
D. cautious
39. People can do the following to reduce waste EXCEPT________.
A. buy high-quality products
B. buy fewer hamburgers
C. reuse cups
D. buy simply-wrapped things
40. Why is it a waste when customers buy low-quality products?
A. Because they produce less energy.
B. Because people will soon throw them away.
C. Because they have to be repaired many times.
D. Because customers change their ideas all the time.

XII. 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 .
In 776 B.C, the Olympic Games were held at the foot of Mount Olympus to honour the Greek's chief
god, Zeus. The warm climate for outdoor activities, the need for preparedness in war, and their lifestyle
caused the Greeks to create competitive sports. Only the elite and military could participate at first, but
later the Games were open to all free Greeks males who had no criminal record. The Greeks emphasized
physical fitness and strength in their education of youth. Therefore, contests in running, jumping, discus
and javelin throwing, boxing and horse and chariot racing were held in individual cities, and the winners
competed every four years at Mount Olympus. Winners were greatly honoured by having olive wreaths
placed on their heads and having poems sung about their deeds. Originally these contests were held as

games of friendship, and any wars in progress were halted to allow the games to take place. They also
helped to strengthen bonds among competitors and the different cities represented. The Greeks attached
so much importance to the Games that they calculated time in four- year cycles called "Olympiads"
dating from 776 B.C. The contests coincided with religious festivities and constituted an all-out effort on
the part of the participants to please the gods. Any who disobeyed the rules were dismissed and seriously
punished. These athlete brought shame not only to themselves, but also to the cities they represented.
44. Which of the following is NOT true?
A. Battle was interrupted to participate in the games.

C. The Games were held in Greece every four years.

XI. 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 .
In the world today, particularly in the two most industrialized areas, North America and Europe,
recycling is the big news. People are talking about it, practicing it, and discovering new ways to be
sensitive to the environment. Recycling means finding ways to use products a second time. The motto of
the recycling movement is "Reduce, Reuse, Recycle".
The first step is to reduce garbage. In stores, a shopper has to buy products in blister packs, boxes
and expensive plastic wrappings. A hamburger from a fast food restaurant comes in lots of packaging:
usually paper, a box, and a bag. All that packaging is wasted resources. People should try to buy things
that are wrapped simply, and to reuse cups and utensils. Another way to reduce waste is to buy highquality products. When low quality appliances break, many customers throw them away and buy new
ones - a loss of more resources and more energy. For example, if a customer buys a high-quality

appliance that can be easily repaired, the manufacturer receives an important message. In the same way,
if a customer chooses a product with less packaging, that customer sends an important message to the
manufacturers. To reduce garbage, the throwaway must stop.
The second step is to reuse. It is better to buy juices and soft drinks in returnable bottles. After
customers empty the bottles, they return them to the store. The manufacturers of the drinks collect the
bottles, wash them, and then fill them again. The energy that is necessary to make new bottles is saved. In
some parts of the world, returning bottles for money is a common practice. In those places, the garbage
dumps have relatively little glass and plastic from throwaway bottles.
The third step being environmentally sensitive is to recycle. Spent motor oil can be cleaned and
used again. Aluminum cans are expensive to make. It takes the same amount of energy to make one
aluminum can as it does to run a color TV set for three hours. When people collect and recycle
aluminum (for new cans), they help save one of the world's precious resources.
36. What is the main topic of the passage?
A. How to reduce garbage disposal.
B. What is involved in the recycling movement.
C. How to live sensitively to the environment.
D. What people often understand about the term 'recycle'.
37. Which is described as one of the most industrialized areas?
A. South America
B. Middle East
C. Asia
D. Europe
38. What does the word 'sensitive' in the phrase 'sensitive to the environment' in paragraph 1 mean?
A. responding
B. friendly
C. logical
D. cautious
39. People can do the following to reduce waste EXCEPT________.
A. buy high-quality products

C. buy fewer hamburgers
D. reuse cups

XII. 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 .
In 776 B.C, the Olympic Games were held at the foot of Mount Olympus to honour the Greek's chief
god, Zeus. The warm climate for outdoor activities, the need for preparedness in war, and their lifestyle
caused the Greeks to create competitive sports. Only the elite and military could participate at first, but
later the Games were open to all free Greeks males who had no criminal record. The Greeks emphasized
physical fitness and strength in their education of youth. Therefore, contests in running, jumping, discus
and javelin throwing, boxing and horse and chariot racing were held in individual cities, and the winners

competed every four years at Mount Olympus. Winners were greatly honoured by having olive wreaths
placed on their heads and having poems sung about their deeds. Originally these contests were held as
games of friendship, and any wars in progress were halted to allow the games to take place. They also
helped to strengthen bonds among competitors and the different cities represented. The Greeks attached
so much importance to the Games that they calculated time in four- year cycles called "Olympiads"
dating from 776 B.C. The contests coincided with religious festivities and constituted an all-out effort on
the part of the participants to please the gods. Any who disobeyed the rules were dismissed and seriously
punished. These athlete brought shame not only to themselves, but also to the cities they represented.
44. Which of the following is NOT true?

C. The Games were held in Greece every four years.
