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.
By adopting a few simple techniques, parents who read to their children can considerably
increase their children’s language development. It is surprising, but true. How parents talk to their
children makes a big difference in the children’s language development. If a parent encourages the
child to actively respond to what the parent is reading, the child’s language skills increase.
A study was done with two or three-year-old children and their parents. Half of the thirty
children participants were in the experimental study; the other half acted as the control group. In the
experimental group, the parents were given a two-hour training session in which they were taught to
ask open-ended questions rather than yes-no questions. For example, the parent should ask, “What is
the doggy doing?” rather than, “Is the doggy running away?” Experimental parents were also
instructed how to expand on their children’s answer, how to suggest alternative possibilities, and how
to praise correct answers.
At the beginning of the study, the children did not differ on levels of language development, but
at the end of one month, the children in the experimental group were 5.5 months ahead of the control

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.
Less than a year ago marketing director, David Smith, 33 was behaving like a secret agent. He
used to secretly tape all his conversations, he refused to sign his name and he would ask his secretary
to check all his emails. Anything he wrote was photocopied and kept as “evidence”. But David isn’t
mad, or even mildly eccentric. He suffers from ‘responsibility OCD’, one of more common form of
obsessive compulsive disorder, or OCD, as it is usually known.
OCD is now recognized as the second most prevalent mental-health problem, after depression –
and the number of reported cases is soaring. Experts estimate that 2% - 3% of the population suffer
from the full-blown syndrome, with as many as one in five suffering from a milder form.
OCD sufferers are tortured by obsessional thoughts, such as worrying that their hands are
contaminated by germs. The terrible anxiety is only relieved by performing a particular set of
behaviors. Unfortunately, any sense of relief is short-lived, which is why the behavior must be
repeated again and again. OCD sufferers know their behavior is irrational, yet feel powerless to stop.
Common treatments are either antidepressants or behavioral therapy with a psychologist, but
only 60% of patients show some improvement. However, a new treatment from America is bringing
fresh hope to sufferers.
One of the OCD gurus and neuropsychiatrists, Jeffrey Schwartz, has designed the Four Steps
program which employs meditation techniques with the aim of teaching sufferers to manage their
symptoms by themselves. “The goal is to learn to override false brain messages”, explains Schwartz.
There are different theories about what causes the disorder. Most experts recognize a genetic
element that can be triggered by a stressful event. Schwartz believes that the OCD ‘worry circuit’ is
a direct result of faulty brain chemistry. ‘When someone experiences an OCD thought, one part of the
brain knows quite clearly that the hand are not dirty’, explains Schwartz ‘Some part of the brain is
standing apart from the symptoms, reflecting on the sheer bizarreness of it all. The objective is to
harness this impartial spectator so that patients can use this healthy part of their brain to resist the
compulsions.’ David Smith is delighted with the results of Schwartz’s treatment. ‘Now I can sign
cheques without a problem’, he says brightly. ‘And I don’t photocopy them either. OCD used to feel
like a huge stigma, but I don’t feel handicapped by it any more. You just deal with it.’
