One of the greatest advantages of robots is that they can work in situations that are dangerous or
harmful for human workers. For example, the continuous smell of paint has a harmful effect on painters, but it
doesn't "bother" a robot. Robots can work in nuclear power plants and in undersea research stations that
might be dangerous for humans. Already, robots are working in the plastics industry and in chemical and
industrial equipment industries. One of the most common uses of robots is still in automobile factories. They
can do the heavy, unpleasant, or dangerous work. These kinds of industrial robots are not usually "mobile".
The work they need to do is brought to them, like cars on an assembly line, for example.
The robot industry is a big business. By the middle of the 1990s, Japan' led the world in robot
production with more than 71,000 industrial robots at work. Both the United States and Japan, as well as other
countries, continue to develop more advanced robots. Robots can now be made to perform more complex jobs.
Robots can make decisions while they are working and learn from their mistakes. Robots can now see with
TV camera "eyes." They can easily hear and can even speak using a voice made by a computer. But it is
difficult to make a robot "understand." Thinking. and understanding are very human qualities. The robots of
the future will probably be very complex. They will be able to perform many humanlike tasks. Robots and
other technology will make the future a very interesting place!

Question 36. We can infer from the passage that by the middle of the 1990s__________.
A. only Japan had used robots in production
B. Japan and the USA were the only countries to use robots
C. some countries had used robots in industrial production
D. Japan led the world in production thanks to robots
Question 37. Which of the following are robots NOT be able to do?
A. To speak using a voice made by a computer
B. To think and understand
C. To make decisions at work
D. To learn from mistakes
Question 38. According to the passage, which of the following is NOT true about the robots of the future?
A. They will probably be very complicated.
B. They will be able to do humanlike tasks.
C. They will contribute to making the future more interesting.

Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B,C, or D on your answer sheet to indicatethecorrectanswerto
eachofthequestionsfrom36to42.

Bacteria are extremely small living things. While we measure our own sizes in inches or
centimeters, bacterial size is measured in microns. One micron is a thousandth of a millimeter a pinhead is
about a millimeter across. Rod shaped bacteria are usually from two to tour microns long,
while rounded ones are generally one micron in diameter Thus if you enlarged a founded bacterium a
thousand times, it would be just about the size of a pinhead. An adult human magnified by the same
amount would be over a mile (1.6 kilometers) tall.
Even with an ordinary microscope, you must look closely to see bacteria. Using a magnification of
100 times, one finds that bacteria are barely visible as tiny rods or dots One cannot make out anything of
their structure. Using special stains, one can see that some bacteria have attached to them wavy - looking
"hairs" called flagella. Others have only one flagellum. The flagella rotate, pushing the bacteria though the
water. Many bacteria lack flagella and cannot move about by their own power while others can glide along
over surfaces by some little understood mechanism.
From the bacterial point of view, the world is a very different place from what it is to humans. To a
bacterium water is as thick as molasses is to us. Bacteria are so small that they are influenced by the
movements of the chemical molecules around them. Bacteria under the microscope, even those with no
flagella, often bounce about in the water. This is because they collide with the water molecules and are
pushed this way and that. Molecules move so rapidly that within a tenth of a second the molecules around
a bacterium have all been replaced by new ones even bacteria without flagella are thus constantly exposed
to a changing environment.
Question 36: Which of the following is the main topic of the passage?
A. The characteristics of bacteria
B. How bacteria reproduce
C. The various functions of bacteria
D. How bacteria contribute to disease

eachofthequestionsfrom43to50.
Alexis de Tocqueville, the French political scientist, historian, philosopher and politician, is most
famous for a four-volume book he wrote called “Democracy in America”. He came to America in 1831 to
study the American form of democracy and what it might mean to the rest of the world. After a visit of
only nine months, he wrote a remarkable book which is regarded as a classic. De Tocqueville had unusual
powers of observation. He described not only the democratic system of government and how it operated,
but also its effect on how Americans think, feel, and act. Many scholars believe he had a deeper
understanding of traditional American beliefs and values than anyone else who has written about the
United States. What is so remarkable is that many of these traits which he observed nearly 200 years ago,
are still visible and meaningful today. His observations are also important because the timing of his visit,
the 1830s, was before America was industrialized. This was the era of the small farmer, the small
businessman, and the settling of the western frontier. It was the period of history when the traditional
values of the new country were newly established. In just a generation, some 40 years since the adoption of
the U.S. Constitution, the new form of government had already produced a society of people with unique
values. He was, however, a neutral observer and saw both the good and bad sides of these qualities.
Question 43: What makes Alexis de Tocqueville special?
A. His long-ago observations are still visible and meaningful today.
B. He wrote about “Democracy in America”
C. He named after Alexis de Tocqueville.
D. He read the impact of the book “Democracy in America”.
Question 44: Alexis de Tocqueville’s nationality is
.
A. French
B. American
C. United States
D. France

Question 45: What is special about Alexis de Tocqueville?
A. He had a deeper understanding.
B. He came to America in 1831.
C. He had unusual powers of observation.
D. He had written about the United States.
Question 46: The phrase “these traits” refers to
.
A. observations
B. how Americans think, feel, and act
C. traditional American beliefs and values
D. visible and meaningful observations
Question 47: What is the passage primarily about?
A. the progress achieved in America within about 40 years after adoption of the U.S. Constitution
B. “Democracy in America”
C. Alexis de Tocqueville
D. the impact of the book “Democracy in America”
Question 48: The word “unique” in the passage is closest in meaning to

Most people start smoking when they are in their teens and are addicted by the time they reach adulthood.
Some have tried to quit but have returned to cigarettes because smoking is such a strong addiction. It is a habit that is
very difficult to break. There are many different reasons why people smoke.
Three of the main reasons that young people smoke are to look mature, to be like their friends, and to
experiment. Since teens see older people all around them smoking, especially their parents and relatives, they smoke
to act older. If their friends or peers smoke, they may feel pressured into doing the same to be accepted. The last
reason is the excitement of experimenting with something that is forbidden. In Massachusetts it is against the law for
anyone under 18 years old to smoke. Usually parents do not allow their under age teens to smoke. Therefore, smoking
becomes very attractive. It is exciting to get cigarettes and sneak away to smoke without being caught.
Adults smoke for other reasons. They may have a lot of stress and pressures because of economic and personal
problems. They may be unemployed or working but not making enough money to take care of themselves and their
families. They may be homeless, or they may be dealing with alcohol or cocaine/heroin addictions. Some may be in bad
marriages or relationships in which there is physical and/or verbal abuse. All these people may smoke to feel relaxed
or to give them energy while going through a hard time.
Whether young or old, some people smoke to control their weight. Smokers, on the average, weigh seven
pounds less than non-smokers. Smoking reduces a person's appetite. It lessens his/her sense of taste and smell. This
could be why ex-smokers gain weight after quitting cigarettes. Food tastes and smells so much better.
Finally, there are people who say they love to smoke. Smoking gives them pleasure. It just makes them feel
good.
(Source: />Question 36: What is the purpose of the whole passage?
A. to contrast young and old smokers

word or phrase that best fits each of the numbered blanks from 43 to 50.
Over millions of years, the world’s climate has undergone a series of dramatic changes that have most likely
resulted from oscillations, or pendulum-like swings, in the rotation of the Earth. One such dramatic climate change was
what is commonly called the Ice Age and was in reality a series of phases of colder and warmer weather that
commenced approximately two million years ago. What we today refer to as the Ice Age was in reality a series
of weaker and stronger glacial periods during which sheets of ice expanded and moved varying distances
south followed by interglacial periods when the glaciers melted to varying degrees and retreated to the
north. These successive periods of colder and warmer weather have had striking effects on the world’s landscape
and on the life forms that inhabit the land. Each glacial period in the series of colder and warmer phases had a different
impact, depending on how far south the ice extended, how long it lasted before melting, and how much it changed the
landscape and sea levels.
The effect on the world’s landscape that resulted from the changing climate was dramatic. Vast sheets of glacial
ice in the northern latitudes of the world cut deep u-shaped valleys that still exist today and caused huge boulders and
enormous amounts of clay and dust to be deposited across North America, Europe, and Asia and to reshape the
landscape of these areas. As the glacial sheets of ice crept southward on the northern continents, they trapped large
amounts of water. This served to reduce the amount of moisture in the atmosphere that could fall as rain or snow,
reducing the amount of rainfall and leading to further aridity and the expansion of deserts in the tropical and
subtropical regions. In addition, with so much water held in the glacial ice, the sea level fell, resulting in the exposure
of land that today is covered with water. During glacial periods there was a land bridge from France to England, the
islands of Japan and Java were connected to the Asian mainland, and Asia was linked to North America over what is

today the Bering Strait. Then, during interglacial periods, when the glacial ice retreated to the north, more water
became available as glaciers melted. Vegetation expanded with the increase in rainfall, and coastlines changed with the
increase in ocean water; during interglacial periods, many areas that today are landmasses were covered with water.
Prehistoric people seem to have adapted well to these environmental changes. They moved from place to place
in response to climatic changes. They could be found living in the grasslands of Asia, in the forests of southeast Asia,
and in the temperate areas of southern Europe, and they moved into and out of the more northerly regions as the
glacial regions retreated and advanced. Their diet changed to adapt to the changes in plant and animal life during
succeeding glacial and interglacial periods, and the use of stone tools, the building of shelters, and the use of clothing
came about during this period. It was these sorts of adaptations that enabled humans to survive and progress while
many other species failed to survive and thrive during this period in the way that prehistoric people did.
