When you read something in a foreign language, you frequently come across words you do not

guess. The strategy you adopt depends very much upon the (38)…...of accuracy you require and the
time (39)…... your disposal.

If you are the sort of person who tends to (40)…...to the dictionary frequently, it is
(41)…...remembering that every dictionary has its limitations. Each definition is only an
(42)…...and one builds up an accurate picture of the meaning of a word only after meeting it in a

usually far safer to (45)…...an English-English dictionary.

In most exams you are not permitted to use a dictionary. (46)…...you are allowed to use one, it
is very time-consuming to look up words, and time in exams is usually limited. You are, therefore, forced
to guess the meaning of (47)…...words.

When you come across unknown words in an exam text, it is very easy to panic. However, if you
develop efficient techniques for guessing the meaning, you will (48)…...a number of possible

Two strategies which may help you to guess the meaning of a word are: Using contextual clues, both
(49)…...the sentence and outside, and making use of clues (50)…...from the formation of the
word.

-V. Read the passage and the questions or unfinished sentences. Then choose the answer - A, B, C, or D 
- that you think fits best:

A pilot cannot fly a plane by sight alone. In many conditions, such as flying at night and landing in
dense fog, a pilot must use radar, an alternative way of navigating. Because human eyes are not very good
at determining speeds of approaching objects, radar can show a pilot how fast nearby planes are moving.
The basic principle of radar is exemplified by what happens when one shouts in a cave. The echo of the
sounds against the walls helps a person determine the size of the cave. With radar, however, the waves are
radio waves instead of sound waves. Radio waves travel at the speed of light, about 300,000 kilometers in
one second. A radar set sends out a short burst of radio waves. Then it receives the echoes produced
when the waves bounce off objects. By determining the time it takes for the echoes to return to the radar
set, a trained technician can determine the distance between the radar set and other objects. The word
"radar", in fact, gets its name from the term "radio detection and ranging". "Ranging" is the term of
detection of the distance between an object and the radar set. Besides being of critical importance to pilots,
radar is essential for air traffic control, tracking ships at sea, and for tracking weather systems and storms.

VII. Read the passage and the questions or unfinished sentences. Then choose the answer - A, B, C, or 
D - that you think fits best:

Botany, the study of plants, occupies a peculiar position in the history of human knowledge. For
many thousands of years it was the one field of awareness about which humans had anything more than
the vaguest of insights. It is impossible to know today just what our Stone Age ancestors knew about
plants, but from what we can observe of preindustrial societies that still exist, a detailed learning of plants
(L5) and their properties must be extremely ancient. This is logical. Plants are the basis of the food
pyramid for all living things, even for other plants. They have always been enormously important to the
welfare of people, not only for food, but also for clothing, weapons, tools, dyes, medicines, shelter, and a
great many other purposes. Tribes living today in the jungles of the Amazon recognize literally hundreds
of plants and know many properties of each. To them botany, as such, has no name and is probably not
(L10) even recognized as a special branch of “knowledge” at all.
