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.

One of the most interesting authors of the twentieth century, J.R.R Tolkien, achieved fame through
his highly inventive trilogy. The Lord of the Rings. Born in 1892, Tolkien received his education
from Oxford and then served in World War I. After the war, he became a professor of Anglo -Saxon
and English language and literature at Oxford University.

Although published in 1965, the three books that comprise the Lord of the Rings were written
in intervals from 1936 to 1949. This was mainly due to Tolkien's responsibilities as a professor and
the outbreak of World War II. By the late 1960s, this fascinating trilogy had become a sociological
phenomenon as young people intently studied the mythology and legends created by Tolkien.

The trilogy is remarkable not only for its highly developed account of historical fiction but
also its success as a modern heroic epic. The main plot describes the struggle between good and evil

kingdom as they try to acquire a magic ring that has the power to rule the world. The novels, which
are set in a time called Middle Earth, describe a detailed fantasy world. Established before humans
populated the Earth, Middle Earth was inhabited by good and evil creatures such as hobbits, elves,
monsters, wizards, and some humans. The characters and the setting of Middle Earth were modeled
after mythological stories from Greece and Northern Europe.

Although readers have scrutinized the texts for inner meaning and have tried to connect the
trilogy with Tolkien's real life experiences in England during World War II, he denied the connection.
He claims that the story began in his years as an undergraduate student and grew out of his desire to
create mythology and legends about elves and their language.

Tolkien was a masterful fantasy novelist who used his extensive knowledge of folklore to
create a body of work that is still read and enjoyed throughout the world today.

Smart cards and mobile phones are becoming an increasingly popular way to make all sorts of
payments. Even now, in Japan thousands of transactions, from paying rail tickets to picking up the
groceries, take place every day with customers passing their handsets across a small flat-screen
device. And predictions in the world of finance reckon that payments using mobile phones will have 
risen to more than $50 billion in the very near future.

What's the appeal of e-cash? Compared to cheques or credit cards, it offers the speed of
cash, but more so. It takes just one tenth of a second to complete most transactions and as no change
is required, errors in counting are eliminated. Fraud and theft are also reduced and for the retailer, it
reduces the cost of handling money. Sony's vision of having a chip embedded in computers, TVs and
games consoles means that films, music and games can be paid for easily without having to input
credit card details.

credit-card firms want to be in a position to collect most of the fees from the users of mobile and
