Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C or D on your answer sheet to choose
the word or phrase that best fits each of the numbered blanks from 31 to 35.
In a word where 2 billion people live in homes that don’t have light bulbs, technology
holds the key to banishing poverty. Even the simplest technologies can tranform lives and save
money.
Vaccines, crops, computers and sources of solar energy can all reduce poverty in
developing countries. For example, cheap oral-rehydration therapy developed in Bangladesh
has dramatically cut the death toll from childhood diarrhoea.
But even when such technologies exist, the depressing fact is that we can’t make them
........(18) for those who most need them. Solar panels, batteries and ligh bulbs are still beyond
the purse of many, but where they have been installed they change lives. A decent light in the
evening gives children more time for homework and extends the productive day for adults.
Kenya has a thriving solar industry and six years ago Kenyan pioneers also .......(19)
connecting schools to the Internet via radio links. These people were fortunate started being
able to afford solar panels, radios and old computers. How much bigger would the impact be if
these things .......(21) and priced specifically for poor people?
Multinationals must become part of the solution, because while they own around 60 percent of
the world’s technology, they seldom make products for poor customers. Of 1,223 new drugs
marketed worldwide from 1975 to 1996, for example, just 13 were for tropical diseases.
People think those enterprises should do more to provide vital products such as
medicines.............(23) different prices around the world to suit what people can afford.
Alternatively, they could pay a percentage of their profit towards research and development for

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 36 to 42.
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 bestpreserved sample of the early solar nebula, and with its satellites, might contain the
most important clues about the origin of the Solar System.

A. solid surfaces

B. similar masses

C. similar atmospheres

D. metallic cores

Question 40: The clouds surrounding Jupiter are mostly composed of _____.
A. ammonia

B. helium

C. hydrogen

D. methane

Question 41: It can be inferred from the passage that the appearance of alternating bands
circling Jupiter is caused by _____.
A. the Great Red Spot

B. heat from the Sun

C. the planet’s fast rotation D. Storms from the planet’s Southern Hemisphere

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.

A. Gestures

Question 45: According to the passage, what is a signal?
A. A form of communication that interrupts the environment.
B. The most difficult form of communication to describe
C. A form of communication which may be used across long distances.
D. The form of communication most related to cultural perception.

A. prohibit

B. intrude

C. vary

D. improve

Question 47: The word “it” in paragraph refers to _______________.
A. way
