Text 2: In the very distant geological past all animals were aquatic. The very first vertebrates, or animals 
with backbones, of which we have any fossil record, lived in the water. These vertebrates, the fish, were
adapted to underwater living. Their streamlined bodies were covered with scales to reduce surface friction:
they had muscular tails so that they could swim swiftly in such a dense medium as water; and they were
endowed with gills for breathing underwater.

Descendants of fish-type ancestors crossed the seashore barrier and accommodated themselves to life on land.
As amphibians, they possessed limbs instead of fins and lungs instead of gills. But they never became
completely free of the bonds that tied them to the water; even today many amphibians return to the water to
lay their eggs.

Millions of years after the first clumsy amphibians crawled over the land, newer types of land dwellers
appeared; these animals gave rise to the present-day reptiles and mammals. They were more completely
converted for land dwelling, with bodies and biological activities far different from those of fish. With these
special adaptations, mammals have been able to colonize the woods and meadows, the deserts and high
mountains, often far removed from the sea.

60. Of the animals with backbones, the first to appear were

A. mammals

B. fish

C. amphibians D. birds

B. through biological changes

D. over millions of years and through biological changes

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 11 to 20.

Most journeys in Britain and the US are made by road. Some of these are made on public transport but
most are by private car.

In Britain many people rely on their cars for daily local activities, e.g. getting to work, doing the shopping,
and visiting friends. People living in urban areas may use buses, trains or, in London, the Underground, to get
to city centres, mainly because traffic is often heavy and it is difficult to find anywhere to park a car. Some
places in the country may have a bus only two or three times a week so people living there have no choice but
to rely on their cars.

In the US large cities have good public transportation systems. The El railroad in Chicago and the
underground systems of New York, Boston, San Francisco and Washington, DC are heavily used.
Elsewhere, most Americans prefer to use their cars. Families often have two cars and, outside major cities,
have to drive fairly long distances to schools, offices, shops, banks, etc. Many college and even high-school
students have their own cars. Long-distance travel in Britain is also mainly by road, though railways link most
towns and cities.

Most places are linked by motorways or other fast roads and many people prefer to drive at their
own convenience rather than use a train, even though they may get stuck in a traffic jam.

</div>
(10)<div class='page_container' data-page=10>

There are regular flights between regional airports, as well as to and from London. A lot of freight is also
distributed by road, though heavier items and raw materials often go by rail.

In the US much long-distance travel is by air. America has two main long-distance bus companies,
Greyhound and Trailways. Amtrak, the national network, provides rail services for passengers. Private
railway companies such as Union Pacific now carry only freight, though in fact over 70% of freight goes by
road.

The main problems associated with road transport in both Britain and the US are traffic congestion and
pollution. It is predicted that the number of cars on British roads will increase by a third within a few years,
making both these problems worse. The British government would like more people to use public transport,
but so far they have had little success in persuading people to give up their cars or to share rides with
neighbours. Most people say that public transport is simply not good enough. Americans too have
resisted government requests to share cars because it is less convenient and restricts their freedom.
Petrol/gasoline is relatively cheap in the US and outside the major cities public transport is bad, so they
see no reason to use their cars less.

(Extracted from Oxford Guide to British and American Culture, Oxford University Press, 2000)

Question 11: In Britain and the US most people travel by ______.

A. air B. rail

A. Few college students in the US have their own cars.

B. Families in the US often have more than one car.

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 21to 30.

Human Nutrition is the study of how food affects the health and survival of the human body.
Human beings require food to grow, reproduce, and maintain good health. Without food, our bodies could not
stay warm, build or repair tissue, or maintain the heartbeat. Eating the right foods can help us avoid certain
diseases or recover faster when illness occurs. These and other important functions are fueled by chemical
substances in our food called nutrients. Nutrients are classified as carbohydrates, proteins, fats, vitamins,
minerals, and water.

</div>
(12)<div class='page_container' data-page=12>

Once digested, carbohydrates, proteins, and fats provide the body with the energy it needs to
maintain its many functions. Scientists measure this energy in kilocalories, the amount of energy needed to
raise one kilogram of water one degree Celsius. In nutrition discussions, scientists use the term calorie instead
of kilocalorie as the standard unit of measure in nutrition.

Nutrients are classified as essential or nonessential. Nonessential nutrients are manufactured in
the body and do not need to be obtained from food. Examples include cholesterol, a fatlike substance present

in all animal cells. Essential nutrients must be obtained from food sources, because the body either does not
produce them or produces them in amounts too small to maintain growth and health. Essential nutrients
include water, carbohydrates, proteins, fats, vitamins, and minerals.

An individual needs varying amounts of each essential nutrient, depending upon such factors as
gender and age. Specific health conditions, such as pregnancy, breast-feeding, illness, or drug use, make
unusual demands on the body and increase its need for nutrients. Dietary guidelines, which take many of these
factors into account, provide general guidance in meeting daily nutritional needs.

From “Human Nutrition” by Worthington-Roberts, Bonnie, Microsoft ® Student 2009.

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 following questions.

A recent study shows that an unequal share of household chores is still the norm in many households,
dispite the fact that many more women now have jobs. In a survey of 1,256 people ages between 18 and 65,
men said they contributed an average of 37% of the total housework, while the women estinated their share to
be nearly double that, at 70%. This ratio was not affected by whether the woman was working or not.

When they were asked what they thought was a fair division of labor, women with jobs felt that housework
should be shared equally between male and female partners. Women who did not work outside the home wrer
satisfied to perform 80% - the majority of the household work – if their husbands did remaider. Reseach has

shown that, if levels increase beyond these percentages, women become unhappy and anxious, and feel they
are unimportant.

After marriage, a woman is reported to increase her household workload by 14 hours per week, but for men
the amount is just 90 minutes. So the division of labor becomes unbalanced, as a man’s share increases much
less than the woman’s. It is the inequality and loss of repect, not the actual number of hours, which leads to
axiety and depression. The reseach describes housework as thankless and unfulfilling. Activities included in
the study were cooking, cleaning, shopping, doing laundry, washing up and childcare. Women who have jobs
report that they feel overworked by these chores in addition to their professional duties. In contrast, full-time
homemakers frequently anticipate going back to work when the children grow up. Distress for this group is
cuased by losing the teamwork in the marriage.

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 following questions.

Most forms of property are concrete and tangible, such as houses, cars, furniture or anything else that is
included in one’s possessions. Other forms of property can be intangible, and copyright deals with intangible
forms of property. Copyright is a legal protection extended to authors of creative works, for example, books,
magazine articles, maps, films, plays, television shows, software, paintings, photographs, music, choreography
in dance and all other forms of intellectual or artistic property.

Although the purpose of artistic property is usually public use and enjoyment, copyright establishes the
ownership of the creator. When a person buys a copyrighted magazine, it belongs to this individual as a
tangible object. However, the authors of the magazine articles own the research and the writing that went into
creating the articles. The right to make and sell or give away copies of books or articles belongs to the authors,
publishers, or other individuals or organizations that hold the copyright. To copy an entire book or a part of it,
permission must be received from the copyright owner, who will most likely expect to be paid.

Copyright law distinguishes between different types of intellectual property. Music may be played by
anyone after it is published. However, if it is performed for profit, the performers need to pay a fee, called a
royalty. A similar principle applies to performances of songs and plays. On the other hand, names, ideas, and
book titles are excepted. Ideas do not become copyrighted property until they are published in a book, a
painting or a musical work. Almost all artistic work created before the 20th century is not copyrighted because
it was created before the copyright law was passed.

The two common ways of infringing upon the copyright are plagiarism and piracy. Plagiarizing the work
of another person means passing it off as one’s own. The word plagiarism is derived from the Latin plagiarus,
which means “abductor”. Piracy may be an act of one person, but, in many cases, it is a joint effort of several

people who reproduce copyrighted material and sell it for profit without paying royalties to the creator.
Technological innovations have made piracy easy and anyone can duplicate a motion picture on videotape, a
computer program, or a book. Video cassette recorders can be used by practically anyone to copy movies and
television programs, and copying software has become almost as easy as copying a book. Large companies
zealously monitor their copyrights for slogans, advertisements, and brand names, protected by a trademark.
Question 40: What does the passage mainly discuss?

A. Legal ownership of creative work

B. Examples of copyright piracy
C. Legal rights of property owners D. Copying creating work for profit
Question 41: The word “extended” in paragraph 1 is closest in meaning to _______

(23)<div class='page_container' data-page=23>

Question 42: It can be inferred from the passage that copyright law is intended to protect

A. computer software and videos from being copied B. paintings and photographs from theft

C. the user’s ability to enjoy an artistic work

D. the creator’s ability to profit from the

work

Question 43: The word “principle” in paragraph 3 is closest in meaning to _______

A. cardinal role B. formidable force C. crucial point

D. fundamental rule

Question 44: Which of the following properties is NOT mentioned as protected by copyright?

A. paintings and maps B. printed medium

C. scientific discoveries

D. music and plays
Question 45: It can be inferred from the passage that it is legal if _______

A. two drawings, created by two different artists, have the same images

B. two books, written by two different authors, have the same titles

C. two songs, written by two different composers, have the same melody

D. two plays, created by two different playwrights, have the same plot and characters
Question 46: With which of the following statements is the author most likely to agree?

B. Singers can publicly sing only the songs for which they wrote the music and the lyrics

C. Teachers are not allowed to make copies of published materials for use by their

students
