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 36 to 40

In many old cities in Europe, there are narrow roads with many shops lying together along the two sides. These
commercial places are not so modern and convenient as those called shopping centers in modern cities, especially
the suburbs of the big cities in the United States.

Shopping centers have developed rapidly because of the shift of the population to the suburbs, the growing
use of and dependence upon the automobiles and the heavy traffic in downtown areas. A shopping center is a
large group of stores facing a huge central mall which may be covered, heated and air-conditioned. A shopping
center is also surrounded by a parking area with space for thousands of cars.

We can buy all kinds of food and get anything we need in a shopping center. Unlike a supermarket where
groceries are chiefly sold, a shopping center provides us with all services besides food. We can get our hair cut,
eyes tested, clothes washed, we can book our tickets for a world tour and even enroll in special classes. Shopping
centers are therefore, very convenient for customers, but they lack "the sense of closeness" as felt in older
commercial centers.

Question 36. In the shopping sections in many old cities in Europe, the stores are located ______ .
A. in the downtown B. in residential areas C. along poor, dirty roads D. along small roads
Question 37. A shopping center is different from a supermarket because ______ .

A. it only sells food B. it sells vegetable

C. it provides not only food but also services D. it is easy to book a ticket for a world tour
Question 38. Customers cannot find "the sense of closeness" in a modern shopping centre because ___ 
A. all the items in the stores are very expensive B. the shopkeepers are very cold and unfriendly
C. it is modern and conventional D. They worry too much about the safety of their cars.

Question 39. The word "those" in paragraph one refers to______ .

A. Shops along the roads B. Commercial places C. Shopping centers D. Supermarkets
Question 40. A shopping center is a large group of stores facing a huge central mall which is _______ .

A. narrow and winding B. very crowded with automobiles
C. used as a store-house for heaters and air-conditioners D. shaded and comfortable

When writing did develop, it was derived from and represented speech, although imperfectly. Even today, there
are spoken languages that have no written form. Furthermore, we all learn to talk well before we learn to write;
any human child who is not severely handicapped physically or mentally will learn to talk: a normal human being
can not be prevented from doing so. On the other hand, it takes a special effort to learn to write; in the past many
intelligent and useful members of society did not acquire the skill, and even today many who speak languages
with writing systems never learn to read or write, while some who learn the rudiments of those skills do so only
imperfectly.

To affirm the primacy of speech over writing is not, however, to disparage the latter. One advantage writing has
over speech is that it is more permanent and makes possible the records that any civilization must have. Thus, if
speaking makes us human, writing makes us civilizes.

A. writing was derived from speech B. we can talk before we can write

C. every spoken language has written form D. men have been writing for at least 5000 years
Question 49. The word “ disparage” in the passage mostly means ...

A. “ suggest that something is not important or valuable” B. “ make something seem more important”
C. “ think that something is more important” D. “ think about something carefully”

Question 50: In the passage, the author judges that ...
A. writing has more advantages than speech

A. is imperfect, but less so than speech B. is represented perfectly by speech
C. represents speech, but not perfectly D. developed from imperfect speech
Question 53. The word “ acquire” in the passage mostly means ...

A. “ become aware of something by hearing about it”
B. “ gain something by our own efforts or ability”

C. “ help somebody learn something by giving information about it”
D. “ develop a natural ability or quality so that it improves”
