IV. COMPREHENSION READING

Read the following passage. For questions 51 – 55, you are to choose one best answer (A, B, C or D) to each 
question.

Let children learn to judge their own work. A child learning to talk does not learn by being corrected all the time: if
corrected too much, he will stop talking. He notices a thousand times a day the difference between the language he uses and the
language those around him use. Bit by bit, he makes the necessary changes to make his language like other people’s. In the same
way, children learning to do all the other things they learn to do without being taught – to walk, run, climb, whistle, ride a bicycle –

compare their own performances with those of more skilled people, and slowly make the needed changes. But in school we never
give a child a chance to find out his mistakes for himself, let alone correct them. We do it all for him. We act as if we thought that
he would never notice a mistake unless it was pointed out to him, or correct it unless he was made to. Soon he becomes

dependent on the teacher. Let him do it himself. Let him work out, with the help of other children if he wants it, what this word
says, what the answer is to that problem, whether this is a good way of saying or doing this or not.

If it is a matter of right answers, as it may be in mathematics or science, give him the answer book. Let him correct his
own papers. Why should we teachers waste time on such routine work? Our job should be to help the child when he tells us that
he can’t find the way to get the right answer. Let’s end all this nonsense of grades, exams, marks. Let us throw them all out, and
let the children learn what all educated persons must some day learn, how to measure their own understanding, how to know what
they know or do not know.

Let them get on with this job in the way that seems most sensible to them, with our help as school teachers if they ask
for it. The idea that there is a body of knowledge to be learnt at school and used for the rest of one’s life is nonsense in a world as
complicated and rapidly changing as ours. Anxious parents and teachers say, ‘But suppose they fail to learn something essential,
something they will need to get on in the world?’ Don’t worry! If it is essential, they will go out into the world and learn it.
51. What does the other think is the best way for children to learn things?

A. by copying what other people do B. by making mistakes and having them corrected
C. by listening to explanations from skilled people D. by asking a great many questions

52. What does the other think teachers do which they should not do?

A. They give children correct answers. B. They point out children’s mistakes to them.
C. They allow children to mark their own work. D. They encourage children to copy from one another.
53. The passage suggests that learning to speak and learning to ride a bicycle are

A. not really important skills. B. more important than other skills.

C. basically different from learning adult skills. D. basically the same as learning other skills.
54. Exams, grades and marks should be abolished because children’s progress should only be estimated by

A. educated persons. B. the children themselves. C. teachers. D. parents.
55. The author fears that children will grow up into adults who are

A. too independent of others. B. too critical of themselves. C. unable to think for themselves. D. unable to use basic skills.

IV. COMPREHENSION READING

Read the following passage. For questions 51 - 55, you are to choose one best answer (A, B, C or D) to each 
question.

Human memory, formerly believed to be rather inefficient, is really more sophisticated than that of a computer.

Researchers approaching the problem from a variety of points of view have all concluded that there is a great deal more stored in
our minds than has been generally supposed. Dr. Wilder Penfield, a Canadian neurosurgeon, proved that by stimulating their brains
electrically, he could elicit the total recall of specific events in his subjects’ lives. Even dreams and other minor events supposedly
forgotten for many years suddenly emerged in detail.

Although the physical basis for memory is not yet understood, one theory is that the fantastic capacity for storage in the
brain is the result of an almost unlimited combination of interconnections between brain cells, stimulated by patterns of activity.

Repeated references to the same information support recall. Or, to say that another way, improved performance is the result of
strengthening the chemical bonds in the memory.

A. the mind has a much greater capacity for memory than was previously believed.

A. can be understood by examining the physiology. B. is stimulated by patterns of activity.
C. has a limited combination of relationships. D. is not influenced by repetition.

A. promises. B. agreements. C. connections. D. responsibilities.

IV. COMPREHENSION READING

Read the following passage. For questions 51 – 55, you are to choose one best answer (A, B, C or D) to each 
question.

There are many varieties of spider in the American Southwest, but none receives more respect than the western black
widow, Latrodectus Hesperus. This poisonous spider, also called the “hour-glass” or “shoe-button” spider for the shape of the red
markings on its abdomen, produces a venom 15 times more powerful than that of a rattlesnake. However, few deaths can be
blamed on this insect because bites are rare and only a small amount of poison enters the body.

The female adult black widow may reach a length of 1 ¼ inches, while the smaller male averages ¼ inch long. The adult
female has a shiny black bulb-shaped abdomen, which distinguishes it from the male of the species. The male is generally brown
with red and white markings on its flat underside.

IV. COMPREHENSION READING

Read the following passage. For questions 51 – 55, you are to choose one best answer (A, B, C or D) to each 
question.

Computer programmer David Jones earns £35,000 a year designing new computer games, yet he cannot find

a bank prepared to let him have a cheque card. Instead he has been told to wait another two years until he is 18.

The 16-year-old works for a small firm in Liverpool, where the problem of most young people of his age is

finding a job. David’s firm releases two new games for the expanding home computer market each month.

But David’s biggest headache is what to do with his money. Despite his salary, earned by inventing new

programs within tight schedules, with bonus payments and profit-sharing, he cannot drive a car, take out a mortgage

or obtain credit cards.

He lives with his parents in their council house in Liverpool, where his father is a bus-driver. His company has

to pay £150 a month in taxi fares to get him the five miles to work and back every day because David cannot drive.

David got his job with the Liverpool-based company four months ago, a year after leaving school with six

O-levels and working for a time in a computer shop. “I got the job because the people who run the firm knew I had

already written some programs,” he said.

“I suppose £35,000 sounds a lot but actually that’s being pessimistic. I hope it will come to more than that this

year”. He spends some of his money on records and clothes, and gives his mother £20 a week. But most of his spare

time spent working.

A. He earns an extremely high salary.

B. He is not unemployed.

C. He does not go out much.

D. He lives at home with his parents.

52. David’s greatest problem is ________.

A. making the banks treat him as an adult.

B. inventing computer games.

C. spending his salary.

D. learning to drive.

53. He was employed by the company because ________.

A. he had worked in a computer shop.

B. he had written some computer programs.

C. he works very hard.

D. he had learnt to use computers at school.

54. He left school after taking O-levels because ________.

A. he did not enjoy school. B. he wanted to work with computers and staying at school did not help him.

C. he was afraid of getting too old to start computing. D. he wanted to earn a lot of money.

55. Why does David think he may retire early?

IV. COMPREHENSION READING

Read the following passage. For questions 51 – 55, you are to choose one best answer (A, B, C or D) to each

question.

Dinosaurs were reptiles that lived during a period of earth's history called the Mesozoic Era, which is also known as the
Age of Reptiles. The first dinosaurs appeared more than 200 million years ago. For many millions of years, they dominated the land
with their huge size and strength. Then about 65 million years ago, they died out rather suddenly, never to reemerge.

The word dinosaur comes from two Greek words meaning terrible lizard. Dinosaurs were not lizards, but their appearance
could be truly terrifying. The biggest ones weighed more than ten times as much as a mature elephant and nearly equaled the size
of most modem-day whales. The famous kinds of dinosaurs, including the brontosaur, and tyrannosaurus rex, reached 80 to 90
feet in length. Not all dinosaurs were giants, however; some were actually no larger than a chicken.

Scientists still do not know what caused dinosaurs to disappear. One theory involves a change in the earth's climate. It is
believed that temperatures dropped significantly towards the end of the Cretaceous Period. Too large to hibernate and not having
fur or feathers for protection, it is possible that the climate became too chilly for dinosaurs. In contrast, other species having
protection, such as the mammals and birds, were able to survive.

51. What is the best title for this passage?

A. The History of Earth B. Earth's Largest Reptiles C. The Metabolism of Dinosaurs D. The Domination of the Land
52. It can be inferred from the passage that the Age of Reptiles lasted about

________.

IV. COMPREHENSION READING

Read the following passage. For questions 52 – 55, you are to choose one best answer (A, B, C or D) to

each question.

Probably the most famous film commenting on 20

century technology is Modern Times, made in 1936.

Charlie Chaplin was motivated to make the film by a reporter who, while interviewing him, happened to describe

working conditions in industrial Detroit. Chaplin, together with healthy young farm boys, was lured to the city to work

as automotive assembly lines. Within four or five years, these young men’s health was destroyed by the stress of work

in the factories.

Scenes of factory interiors account for less than one-third of the footage of Modern Times, but they contain

some of the film’s most pointed social commentary as well as its funniest comic situations. No one who has seen the

film can ever forget Chaplin vainly trying to keep pace with the fast-moving conveyor belt, almost losing his mind in the

process.

Cleary, Modern Times has its faults, but it remains the best film treating technology within a social context. It

does not offer a radical social message, but it accurately reflects the sentiments of many who felt they were helpless

victims of an over-mechanized world.

52. The author’s main purpose in writing the passage is to ________.

A. criticize the factory system of the 1930s

C. explain Chaplin’s style of acting

B. describe an important film

D. discuss how film reveals the benefits of technology

from ________.

IV. COMPREHENSION READING

Read the following passage. For questions 51 – 55, you are to choose one best answer (A, B, C or D) to

each question.

Hatred is a fundamental human emotion that has deep roots in society and culture. Psychologists believe that group
identity and cohesion depend to a large extent on having a common enemy. It seems that the existence of "bad guys" is an
important element in defining who we are within a larger realm. It could be said that human beings love to hate.

The first signs appear early in life when a child, faced with blame for some mistake, immediately accuses another child or
an inanimate object such as a teddy bear. Later, on the schoolyard playground, children in rival groups vie for attention and
influence. These basic responses translate into more powerful emotions later in life.

One area where deep-rooted hatred is exhibited is in the ethnic clashes that constantly occur around the globe. These
conflicts are not only over territory but also involve emotional issues of group identity and unity of purpose. For many, there is no
"us" without a "them" to hate. In a world where conflict between superpowers is on the decline, it may be that humanity will have
difficulty adapting to a state of mutual respect and cooperation.

51. Which of the following is the best title for the passage?

A. Roots of Society B. Group Unity C. A Basic Emotion D. Social and Cultural Problems
52. According to the passage, what is believed to be an important aspect of defining group identity?

IV. COMPREHENSION READING

Read the following passage. For questions 66 /70, you are to choose one best answer (A, B, C or D) to each

question.

In 1752, Benjamin Franklin made his textbook experiment with a brass key and a silk kite that he flew in a

thunderstorm to prove that lightning and electricity are the same thing. In 1920, a kite-flying championship for families

and individuals was held in London. These two seemingly unrelated events underscore the fact that kites can be flown

for both pleasure and scientific purposes. For example, in the 1800s weather bureaus flew kites to record temperature

and humidity at certain altitudes. On one occasion, ten kites were strung together and flown at a height of four miles to

lift men and carry cameras aloft.

The kite's ability to fly depends on its construction and the way that its line is attached. The familiar

diamond - shaped kite flies when its covered face is aligned against the wind flow. The line attached to the

nose of the kite pulls it into the wind, thus creating the necessary angle for the lift force. If the kite's

construction and the angle of the air stream are correct, the kite will encounter greater pressure against its

face and lower pressure against its back. The difference in the pressure creates a lift that causes the kite to

rise until it hangs level from its bridle. Its angle against the wind should be sufficiently large or small to

create maximum lift to overcome both drag and gravity. The towing point to which the line is attached is

important because it sets the kite's angle relative to the airflow. Although the kite must be headed up and

into the wind with a velocity of 8 to 20 miles per hour, it can maintain its position through a tail, a rudder, a

keel, vents, or tassels.

66. What is the main topic of the passage?

A. How kites can be used.

B. Why kites are flown.

C. What parts kites consist of.

D. What makes kites stay up in the air.

67. According to the passage, the kite flies when its nose is ________.

A. pointed away from the ground.

B. pointed into the wind flow.

C. pointed to the ground.

D. pointed downwards.

68. What is the necessary condition for the kites to fly?

A. The kite must be sufficiently strong to withstand great pressure.

B. The kite must be diamond-shaped, and the wind of a certain velocity.

C. The pressure against its back must be lower than the pressure against its face.

D. The pressure of the airflow must be lower than the weight of the kite.

69. According to the passage, the line of the kites is important because it _____.

A. lifts the kite's cover arid frame into the air space.

B. contributes to the shape of the kite and extends it.

C. determines the angle between the kite and the air flow.

D. conveys the direction of the wind and the air flow.

70. The word "velocity" in line 21 most nearly means________.
