The search for alternative sources of energy has led in various directions. Many communities
are burning garbage and other biological waste products to produce electricity. Converting
waste products to gases or oil is also an efficient way to dispose of wastes. Experiment work is
being done to derive synthetic fuels from coal, oil shale, and coal tars. But to date, that process
has proven expensive. Other experimental are underway to harness power with giant windmills.

companies to revive hydroelectric power derived from streams and rivers. Fifty years ago
hydroelectric power provided one third of the electricity used in the United States, but today it
supplies only 4 percent. The oceans are another potential source of energy. Scientists are
studying ways to convert the energy of ocean, tides, and waves to electricity. Experiments are

about certain problems, and a lack of communication can cause a generation gap in most
societies.

The first factor is that parents and children generally see things from different perspectives.
Choosing a career is a good example for this. Many parents try to impose certain careers they
favor on their children, based on their own perceptions. However, young people don’t always
understand their parents’ points of views. Instead, they prefer to be free to make their own
decisions on their future career. Another factor lies in differences in musical tastes, fashion, and
political views between young people and their parents. For example, having a pierced nose
might be viewed as fashionable by some teens, but for many parents, it is considered to be an
act of rebellion against social norms. Some parents may also find their children’s behavior
unacceptable and disrespectful to traditional values.

The major factor causing the generation gap is lack of communication between parents and
their children. Parents tend to be dominant and not to trust their children to deal with crises.
Also, they keep talking too much about certain problems. That is the reason why young people
seldom reveal their feelings to their parents. When facing problems, young people prefer to
seek help from their classmates or friends.

The above mentioned factors could lead to a generation gap. In order to bridge the gap
between the old generation and the younger one, mutual understanding is the vital key. The
wisest solution would be for parents and their children to treat each other as friends.

1. How many causes of the generation gap are mentioned?
A. 2 B. 3 C. 4

2. How do young people usually react when their parents impose career choices on them?
They want to make their own decisions.

They follow their parents’ advice.

They try to understand their parents’ goodwill.
3. What do parents often think about nose piercing?
They think that it is acceptable.

They think that it is fashionable.

They think that it is against social norms.

4. What do young people often do when they face problems?
They share the problems with their parents.

They ask their classmates or friends for help.
They ask their parents for help.

5. What would be the best way to narrow the generation gap?

Parents and children should try to be friends and understand each other.
Parents should be tolerant and let children do what they want.

Children should follow their parents' advice.

was formed and used the name Asian Games Federation. It was formed and used the name

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.

Telecommuting is some form of computer communication between employees’ homes and

offices. For employees whose job involve sitting at a terminal or word processor entering data

or typing reports, the location of the computer is of no consequence. If the machine can

communicate over telephone lines, when the work is completed, employees can dial the office
computer and transmit the material to their employers. A recent survey in USA Today estimates
that there are approximately 8,7 million telecommuters. But although the numbers are rising
annually, the trend does not appear to be as significant as predicted when Business Week
published “The Portable Executive” as its cover story a few years ago. Why hasn’t

telecommuting become more popular?

Clearly, change simply takes time. But in addition, there has been active resistance on the part
of many managers. These executives claim that supervising the telecommuters in a large work
force scattered across the country would be too difficult, or, at least, systems for

managing them are not yet developed, thereby complicating the manager’s responsibilities.

It is also true that employees who are given the option of telecommuting are reluctant to accept

the opportunity. Most people feel that they need regular interaction with a group, and many are
concerned that they will not have the same consideration for advancement if they are not more
visible in the office setting. Some people feel that even when a space in their homes is set
aside as a work area, they never really get away from the office.

Question 31: With which of the following topics is the passage primarily concerned?

A. An overview of telecommuting B. The failure of telecommuting

C. The advantages of telecommuting D. A definition of telecommuting

Question 32: How many Americans are involved in telecommuting?

A. More than predicted in Business Week B. More than 8 million

C. Fewer than last year D. Fewer than estimated in USA Today

Question 33: The phrase “of no consequence” means ________.

A. of no use B. irrelevant C. of no good D. unimportant

Question 34: The author mentions all of the following as concerns of telecommuting EXCEPT
________.

A. the opportunities for advancement B. the different system of supervision

C. the lack of interaction with a group D. the work place is in the home

Question 35: The word “them” in the second paragraph refers to ________.

Question 36: The reason why telecommuting has not become popular is that the employees

B. are worried about the promotion if they are not seen at the office.

C. feel that a work area in their home is away from the office.

D. are ignorant of telecommuting.

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.

In my experience, freshmen today are different from those I knew when I started as a counselor
and professor 25 years ago. College has always been demanding both academically and
socially. But students now are less mature and often not ready for the responsibility of being in
college.

It is really too easy to point the finger at parents who protect their children from life’s obstacle.

Parents, who handle every difficulty and every other responsibility for their children writing

admission essays to picking college courses, certainly may contribute to their children’s lack of
coping strategies. But we can look even more broadly to the social trends of today.

How many people do you know who are on medication to prevent anxiety or depression? The

number of students who arrive at college already medicated for unwanted emotions has
increased dramatically in the past 10 years. We, as a society, don’t want to “feel” anything
unpleasant and we certainly don’t want our children to “suffer”.

The resulting problem is that by not experiencing negative emotions, one does not learn the
necessary skills to tolerate and negotiate adversity. As a psychologist, I am well aware of the
fact that some individuals suffer from depression and anxiety and can benefit from treatment,
but I question the growing number of medicated adolescents today.

Our world is more stressful in general because of the current economic and political realities,
but I don’t believe that the college experience itself is more intense today than that of the past
10 years. What I do think is that many students are often not prepared to be young “adults” with
all the responsibilities of life.

What does this mean for college faculty and staff? We are required to assist in the basic

parenting of these students – the student who complains that the professor didn’t remind her of
the due date for an assignment that was clearly listed on the syllabus and the student who
cheats on an assignment in spite of careful instructions about plagiarism.

As college professors, we have to explain what it means to be an independent college student
before we can even begin to teach. As parents and teachers we should expect young people to
meet challenges. To encourage them in this direction, we have to step back and let them fail
and pick themselves up and move forward. This approach needs to begin at an early age so
that college can actually be a passage to independent adulthood.

Question 38: According to the writer, students today are different from those she knew in that
