IV. Read the following passage and choose the correct answers:
BODY LANGUAGE AND CULTURAL DIFFERENCES
The body language people use often communicates more about their feelings than the words they are
saying. We use body movements, hand gestures, facial expressions, and changes in our voice to
communicate with each other. Although some body language is universal, many gestures are culturally
specific and may mean different things in different countries.
If you want to give someone the nod in Bulgaria, you have to nod your head to say no and shake it to
say yes - the exact opposite of what we do! In Belgium, pointing with your index finger or snapping
your fingers at someone is very rude.
In France, you shouldn’t rest your feet on tables or chairs. Speaking to someone with your hands in your
pockets will only make matters worse. In the Middle East, you should never show the soles of your feet
or shoes to others as it will be seen as a grave insult. When eating, only use your right hand because
they use their left hands when going to the bathroom.
In Bangladesh, the ‘thumbs-up’ is a rude sign. In Myanmar, people greet each other by clapping, and in
India, whistling in public is considered rude.
In Japan, you should not blow your nose in public, but you can burp at the end of a meal to show that
you have enjoyed it. The ‘OK’ sign (thumb and index finger forming a circle) means ‘everything is
good’ in the West, but in China it means nothing or zero. In Japan, it means money, and in the Middle
East, it is a rude gesture.
33. It is mentioned in the passage that many gestures .
A. are not used to communicate our feelings. B. may mean different things in different countries
C. can be used to greet each other in public
D. are used in greeting among men and women
34. People nod their head to say no in
A. Belgium
B. France

C. Bulgaria
D. Japan

The United Nations Children’s Fund (UNICEF), a special program of the United Nations, is devoted to
aiding national efforts to improve the health, nutrition, education, and general welfare of children.
UNICEF was created in 1946 to provide relief to children in countries devastated by World War II. After
1950 the fund directed its efforts toward general programs for the improvement of children’s welfare,
particularly in less-developed countries and in various emergency situations. The organization’s broader
mission was reflected in the name it adopted in 1953, the United Nations Children’s Fund. UNICEF was
awarded the Nobel Prize for Peace in 1965. It is headquartered in New York City.
UNICEF has concentrated much of its effort in areas in which relatively small expenditures can have a
significant impact on the lives of the most disadvantaged children such as the prevention and treatment
of diseases. In keeping with this strategy, UNICEF supports immunization programs for childhood
diseases and programs to prevent the spread of HIV/AIDS; it also provides funding for health services,
educational facilities, and other welfare services. Since 1996 UNICEF programs have been guided by
the Convention on the Rights of the Child (1989), which affirms the right of all children to “the
enjoyment of the highest attainable standard of health and to facilities for the treatment of illness and
rehabilitation of health”. UNICEF’s activities are financed by both government and private
contributions.

V. Read the passage carefully, then choose the correct answer.
Since the world has become industrialized, there has been an increase in the number of animal species
that have either become extinct or have neared extinction. Bengal tigers, for instance, which once
roamed the jungles in vast numbers, now number only about 2,300, and by the year 2025 their
population is estimated to be down to zero. What is alarming about the case of the Bengal tiger is that
this extinction will have been caused almost entirely by poachers who, according to some sources, are
not interested in material gain but in personal gratification. This is an example of the callousness that is
part of what is causing the problem of extinction. Animals like the Bengal tiger, as well as other
endangered species, are a valuable part of the world’s ecosystem. International laws protecting these
animals must be enacted to ensure their survival, and the survival of our planet.
Countries around the world have begun to deal with the problem in various ways. Some countries, in
order to circumvent the problem, have allocated large amounts of land to animal reserves. They then
charge admission to help defray the costs of maintaining the parks, and they often must also depend on
world organizations for support. With the money they get, they can invest in equipment and patrols to
protect the animals. Another solution that is an attempt to stem the tide of animal extinction is an

BODY LANGUAGE AND CULTURAL DIFFERENCES

other. Although some body language is universal, many gestures are culturally specific and may mean different
things in different countries.
If you want to give someone the nod in Bulgaria, you have to nod your head to say no and shake it to say yes the exact opposite of what we do! In Belgium, pointing with your index finger or snapping your fingers at
someone is very rude.
In France, you shouldn’t rest your feet on tables or chairs. Speaking to someone with your hands in your pockets
will only make matters worse. In the Middle East, you should never show the soles of your feet or shoes
to others as it will be seen as a grave insult. When eating, only use your right hand because they use their left
hands when going to the bathroom.

The United Nations Children’s Fund (UNICEF), a special program of the United Nations, is devoted to
aiding national efforts to improve the health, nutrition, education, and general welfare of children.
UNICEF was created in 1946 to provide relief to children in countries devastated by World War II. After
1950 the fund directed its efforts toward general programs for the improvement of children’s welfare,
particularly in less-developed countries and in various emergency situations. The organization’s broader
mission was reflected in the name it adopted in 1953, the United Nations Children’s Fund. UNICEF was
awarded the Nobel Prize for Peace in 1965. It is headquartered in New York City.
UNICEF has concentrated much of its effort in areas in which relatively small expenditures can have a
significant impact on the lives of the most disadvantaged children such as the prevention and treatment
of diseases. In keeping with this strategy, UNICEF supports immunization programs for childhood
diseases and programs to prevent the spread of HIV/AIDS; it also provides funding for health services,
educational facilities, and other welfare services. Since 1996 UNICEF programs have been guided by
the Convention on the Rights of the Child (1989), which affirms the right of all children to “the
enjoyment of the highest attainable standard of health and to facilities for the treatment of illness and
