himself these questions: “Why are people so unhappy? How can people be happy?” When he
was 29 years old, he left his family, his beautiful wife and son and went out into the world to
find the answers. He tried many ways. He studied with teachers but they could not answer his
questions. He went to live in the forest. He hurt his body. He did not eat anything for many

days. He tried to get away from his body. But this did not give him the answers to his
questions. Then he set down under a tree and thought. He sat for 49 days. After this time, he
learned something from himself. He became the Buddha. His questions were answered.
People were unhappy because they want things. They are looking for food, money and other
things. When a man does not want things, then he will be happy. When a man does not want
things, he will be free. He does not think about himself. He does not think about tomorrow.

For many years people believe that the cleverest animals after man were chimpanzees. Now,

however, there is proof that dolphins may be even cleverer than these big apes. Although a
dolphin lives in the sea it is not a fish. It is a mammal. It is, in many ways, like human being.
Dolphins have simple language. They are able to talk to one another. It may be possible for
man to learn how to talk to dolphins. But this will not be easy because dolphin cannot hear the
kind of sounds man can make. If man wants to talk to dolphins, therefore, he will have to
make a third language which both he and the dolphin can understand. Dolphins are also very
friendly towards man. They often follow ships. There are many stories of dolphin guiding
ships through difficult and dangerous waters.

was already interested in reading, writing and in music. He wrote his first book of poems
when he was only 17. He also liked to watch things around him: the trees, the birds, the
flowers, the grass and so on. All these things were beautiful for him. When he was old enough
to go to school, his father sent him to a school in his own town. But he did not like his school.
He did not like his lessons. He did not like his teacher’s way of teaching. So after some time

decorations. It is beautiful and lasts forever. Gold leaf, a thin sheet of gold, can be made so
thin that light shine through it. Remains of ancient gold mines have been found in Egypt.

during the seven month period that includes three months before the sixty fifth birthday, the
month in which the birthday falls, and three months after the birthday. However, if they wish

the insurance coverage to begin when they reach 65, they must enroll three months before
their birthday. People who do not enroll within their first enrollment period may enroll later,
during the first three months of each year. Those people, however, must pay 10% additional
for each twelve month period that elapsed since they first could have enrolled. The monthly
premium is deducted from social security payments, railroad retirement or civil service

We had an English upbringing in terms of plenty of fresh air and outdoor games. I didn’t go to
school. My whole formal education consisted of some three hours when I was five. I was sent
to school but came home at noon on the first day and said I didn’t enjoy it. I couldn’t see the
point of a lot of children sitting restlessly while a teacher taught from a big book. My parents
decided, wisely, I think, that school was not for me and I never went back. My mother then
took over my education and brought up my two sisters and me rather in the way of an
educated English lady. The emphasis was on languages and reading rather than sciences and
maths. Sometimes she taught us herself, but we also had other teachers and we were kept to a
strict routine. About once a week we walked to the Golden Gate Park, and on our walks my
mother taught me to read music. One day I noticed a little windmill in the window of a shop
we passed on our way to the park and I remember now how my heart yearned for it. I couldn’t
roll my ‘r’s when I was small and my mother, who was a perfectionist regarding
pronunciation, said if I could pronounce an ‘r’ well, I’d have the windmill. I practiced and

practiced and one morning I woke everybody up with my’r’s. I got the windmill. I usually get
things I want in life - but I work hard for them and dream of them.

Six years ago when I was a student, I was short of money. So once a week I used to go home
to see my parents and get a decent meal. Although I had a good relationship with my mother,
I never got on well with my father. One day I did a really terrible thing. I stole some money
from him. I had started of by asking him if he would lend me ten pounds. He refused saying
he had already given me enough and it was time I became more responsible with money. You
know what it is like as a student. I’d run out of money and wanted to take a girl out. When he
refused, I accused him of being mean and we had a terrible row. He left the house and I was
so angry that I stole ten pounds from his wallet.

When he found out that the money had gone, he knew who had stolen it and banned me from
the house. Since then I had returned but he had never really forgiven me and still looked down
on me for what I had done. My mother was very upset and I really wanted to work towards
creating a happy relation with my father. Half of me wanted to say “Sorry, Dad” while the
other half still thought he was ridiculous for having kept this attitude up for so long.

Rice growing farmers are the only ones who truly understand when it is time to gather
young grains to make C m. Then young rice grains are harvested, roasted and ground downố

to become C m. They are put into a large firing pan under small flames and stirred slowly forố

a specific period of time. They are then poured into a rice mortar and slightly pounded with a
wooden pestle, rhythmically and at quick intervals until the husk is removed. Following this,
the young rice is removed from the mortar and winnowed before being poured again into the
mortar and the process repeated. This is then repeated exactly seven times so that all the husk

is removed from

the young sticky grains. If the pounding is done irregularly and in haste, or it is not repeated
for the prescribed seven times, the green colour of the grains will disappear and be replaced
by an unexpected brown colour. C m is regarded as a purely pastoral gift. To enjoy C m it isố ố

advisable to chew it slowly so that one can feel the stickiness of the young rice and at the
same time enjoy its sweet, fragrant taste. Visitors to Vong village (about five kms from
Hanoi) during the C m making season will have a chance to listen to the special rhythmicố

pounding of wooden pestles against mortars filled with young rice and see women shifting
and winnowing the pounded young rice.

Iceland had been called the “land of frost and fire”. This is a very satisfactory name,
for the mountains on this island in the North Atlantic are capped with snow the year round,
and there are scores of fiery volcanoes. Contrary to what most people think, however,
Iceland’s climate is not extremely cold. Most days are quite agreeable because of the warm
current of Gulf Stream. When the Vikings began to settle in Iceland in 874 AD. They found
books and crosses that showed the Irish had already been there. It is likely that the Irish and
Scotch had come to Iceland about 70 years before the Vikings arrived. These explorers,
however, had made no lasting settlements. The first real colonists were Scandinavians who
came directly from Norway, Sweden, and Denmark.

motor and a propeller near Paris in 1899. That was four years before the Wright brothers’
success. Other who had experimented with gliders in the nineteenth century had learned much

2. Read the passage and answer the questions below it.

In 1960, an American psychiatrist named William Dement published experiments
dealing with the recording of eye-movements during sleep. He showed that the average
individual’s sleep cycle is punctuated with peculiar bursts of eye-movement, some drifting
and slow, others jerky and rapid. People woken during these periods of eye-movement
generally reported that they had been dreaming. When woken at other times they reported no
dreams. If one group of people were disturbed from their eye-movement sleep for several
nights on end, and another group were disturbed for an equal period of time but when they
were not exhibiting eye-movements, the first group began to show, while the others seemed
more or less unaffected. The implications of all this were that it was not the disturbance of
sleep that mattered but the disturbance of dreaming.

men die earlier than women. Men are stronger physically, yet women can hang on longer to

Two main techniques have been used for training elephants, which we may call
respectively the tough and the gentle. The former method simply consists of setting an
elephant to work and beating him until he does what is expected of him. Apart from any
moral considerations, this is a stupid method of training, for it produces a resentful animal
who at a later stage may well turn into a man-killer. The gentle method requires more patience

in the early stages, but produces a cheerful, good-tempered elephant who will give many
years of loyal service. The first essential in elephant training is to assign to the animal a single
trainer who will be entirely responsible for the job. Elephants like to have one master just as
dogs do, and are capable of a considerable degree of personal affection. There are even stories
of half-trained elephant calves who have refused to feed and pined to death when, by some
unavoidable circumstance, they have been deprived of their own trainer. Such extreme cases
must probably be taken with a grain of salt, but they do underline the general principle that
the relationship between elephant and trainer is the key to successful training.

The Olympic Games originated in 776 B.C. in Olympia, a small town in Greece.
Participants in the first Olympiad are said to have run a 200-yard race, but as the Games were
held every four years, they expanded in scope. Only Greek amateurs were allowed to
participate in this festival in honor of the God Zeus. The event became a religious, patriotic,
and athletic occasion where winners were honored with wreaths and special privileges. There
was a profound change in the nature of the Games under the Roman emperors. They were
banned in 394 A.D. by Emperor Theodosius, after they became professional circuses and
carnivals. The modern Olympic Games began in Athens in 1896 as a result of the initiative of
Baron Pierre de Coubertin, a French educator whose desire was to promote international

currently compete.

Long ago people did not even think about conservation. There were very few people.
They learned that using wood, ores, and other natural resources could make their life easier.
Then people began to live longer and the number of people living on the earth grew. Today,
billions of people live on earth and use more and more natural resources. People are using up
fossil fuels and other natural resources faster than the planet can replace them. People cut
down forests and destroy the homes of many plants and animals. People need to use
renewable resources wisely. It’s important to plant a tree for every tree cut down.
Governments set up national parks where logging, mining, hunting and other activities that
use up natural resources are usually not allowed. Our endless supply of air and water must be
protected. Polluted air can make you sick and you cannot drink polluted water. Factories,
power plants, cars, and trucks give off smoke that pollutes the air. Some factories dump
chemical into lakes and rivers. Some places on earth have plenty of water, but deserts and
other places do not, It is important to conserve water so that everyone has enough to drink and
use for watering crops. Conservationists do a good job by looking for ways to save natural
resources so that people will have enough lumber, fossil fuels, water and food. They also look
for ways to save endangered plants and animals.

You use plants to make heat and energy. You can burn wood from trees. You can burn
fossil fuels called coal, gas, and oil. Fossil fuels formed deep underground from plants and
animals that died millions of years ago.

People began to use paper money in China, around 600 A.D. The Chinese used paper
money to buy whatever they needed. In the 1200s, Marco Polo, the famous Italian explorer,
noticed this system of payment when he visited the East. Marco Polo explained to the people
of Europe that this was an excellent system. However, European countries did not begin to
use paper money until 1600. At this time, banks printed notes that could be used instead of
silver and gold. Imagine how difficult it was for people to carry heavy bags of silver and gold
everywhere. The new bank notes were much easier to use.

Scientists know that Antarctica is very important to the world’s climate, and they are
trying lo learn why. Much of their research focuses on ozone, a form of oxygen. The ozone
layer protects living things from the dangerous rays of the sun. In the mid-1980s, scientists
discovered that the ozone layer above Antarctica was very thin. They call this the ‘ozone
hole’. Scientists have also discovered that since 1970 the temperature of the air and the water
in Antarctica has been slowly rising. Warmer temperatures result in less sea ice during the
winter months. Scientists think that some kinds of penguins are becoming fewer in number:
these Antarctic creatures don’t have enough ice to survive. Scientists are learning that the
winter sea ice is very important to the chain of life.

SECTION B: Read the following passages and answer the questions that follow.
Passage 1

During the teenage years, many young people can at times be difficult to talk to. They often
seem to dislike being questioned. They may seem unwilling to talk about their work in
school. This is a normal development at this age, though it can be very hard for parents to
understand. It is part of becoming independent of teenagers trying to be adult while they
are still growing up. Young people are usually more willing to talk if they believe that
questions are asked out of real interest and not because people are trying to check up on
them.

Parents should do their best to talk to their sons and daughters about school work and
future plan but should not push them to talk if they don’t want to. Parents should also watch
for the danger signs: some young people trying to be adult may experiment with sex, drugs,
alcohol or smoking. Parents need to watch for any sighs of unusual; behaviour which may be
connected with these and get help if necessary.

Questions:

1- Why do adults sometimes find teenagers difficult to talk to?

………
………
2- Why do some teenagers experiment with drinking and smoking?
………
………
3- What does the word “behaviour” in the passage mean?

………
………

4- When can we expect young people to be more talkative than usual?

………
………

5- How should parents deal with their teenage children?

………
………
Passage 2

People have always dreamed of living forever, and although we all know this will not
happen, we still want to live as long as possible. Naturally, there are advantages and
disadvantages to a long life.

In the first place, people who live longer can spend more time with their family and
friends. Secondly, people who have busy working lives look forward to a long; relaxing
retirement when they can do all the things they have never had time for.

</div>
(53)<div class='page_container' data-page=53>

older people get, the fewer friends they seem to have because old friends die or become ill
and it's often difficult to make new friends.

To sum up, it seems that living to a very old age is worthwhile for people who stay
healthy enough to remain independent and enjoy life.

Questions

1. What have people always dreamed of?

………
2. What is the disadvantage of living a long life in the first place?

………
3. Why do some people look forward to a long, relaxing retirement?

………
4. What are the advantages of living a long life?

………
5. For whom is living to a very old age worthwhile?

………
Passage 3

Alexander Graham Bell was born in Scotland in 1847, but when he was a young man
of twenty-three he moved with his parents to Canada. Before the year was over, young
Graham had left his family and gone to Boston. Though Bell was a dreamer, he was also a
practical thinker and a man of action. In Boston, where he worked by day as a teacher of
the deaf, he worked far into the night experimenting with the electrical transmission of
sound. "You can't make an owl sleep at night," he once wrote in a letter. "The more I
explore the wonderful subject of electricity, the more boundless seem the prospects before
me."

Questions

1. When and where was Bell born?

………
2. How old was he when he moved to Canada.

………
3. What kind of man was Bell?

………

Passage 4

The food we eat seems to have profound effects on our health. Although science has
made enormous steps in making food more fit to eat, it has, at the same time, made many
foods unfit to eat. Some research has shown that perhaps eighty percent of all human illnesses
are related to diet and forty percent of cancers are related to the diet as well, especially cancer
of the colon. Different cultures are more prone to contract certain illnesses because of the
food that is characteristic in these cultures. That food related to illness is not a new discovery.

Passage 5.

Radio waves are a mystery. Though scientists assume that they are a form of electric
energy, no one as yet has been able to prove it. But even though scientists are not quite sure
what radio waves are, they are constantly learning how to make use of them.

One of the first scientists to experiment with their use was an Italian named Macroni. In
1897 he formed a wireless company to install wireless sets in ships at sea, in light ships, and
in lighthouses along the coast of England. With such equipment, he believed that a ship in
danger of sinking could radio for help. Two years later he was proved right. A light ship,
pounded and damaged by heavy seas, radioed a nearby station and got help in time to prevent
loss of life.

Passage 6

Among the more than 1.5 million species of living things that have been described and
named, the human species is unique in that its members adapt to the environment primarily by
a complicated form of learned behavior called culture, which is transmitted from generation to
generation by the symbol system of language. For all practical purposes, geographic variation
in our species is now irrelevant because people adapt to the environment primarily by means
of behavior, whose biological basis is in the brain and is not reflected in superficial
differences in body surfaces. When they first evolved, people who had dark-colored skin were
better adapted to climatic conditions near the equator than those who had light-colored skins,
but few human beings now live under natural conditions. Also, technological advances have
assured that at the present time, human beings of various races are as likely to reproduce in
one environment as in another. The superficial differences between existing human races are
thus largely relics of the past and are not of much functional significance today.

Passage7

Traditionally, mental tests have been divided into two types. Achievement tests are designed
to measure acquired skills and knowledge, particularly those that have been explicitly taught.
The proficiency exams required by some states for high school graduation are achievement
tests. Aptitude tests are designed to measure a person’s ability to acquire new skills or
knowledge. For example, vocational aptitude tests can help you decide whether you would do
better as a mechanic or musician . However,

All mental tests are in some sense achievement tests because they assume some sort of past
learning or experience with certain objects, words or situations . The difference between
achievement and aptitude tests is one of degree and intended use.

Passage 8.

During the teenage years, many young people can at times be difficult to talk to. They
often seem to dislike being questioned. They may seem unwilling to talk about their work in
school. This is a normal development at this age, though it can be very hard for parents to
understand. It is part of becoming independent of teenagers trying to be adult while they are
still growing up. Young people are usually more willing to talk if they believe that questions
are asked out of real interest and not because people are trying to check up on them.

Parents should do their best to talk to their sons and daughters about school work and
future plan but should not push them to talk if they don’t want to. Parents should also watch
for the danger signs : some young people trying to be adult may experiment with sex, drugs,
alcohol or smoking. Parents need to watch for any sighs of unusual, behaviour which may be
connected with these and get help if necessary.

Passage 9.

To be successful, a business traveler must be able to maintain contact with the office, no
matter what the time or place. Negotiations often involve decisions based on the latest figures.
New telecommunications products and services now on the market make staying in touch
easier than ever before.

The most widespread device is the cellular telephone, the price of which has dropped from
several thousand dollars to a few hundred, including installation. There are over two million
mobile cellular phones in use today, including both car phones and cordless transportable
units. Car phones have proven indispensable for road emergencies as well as routine business
transactions. Phone service is also available on airplanes and on the rails.

Recently introduced pocket- side organizers help business travelers with heavy schedules
keep track of clients. These are tiny computers that can store all kinds of information. They
can serve as phone and address directories, calendars, electronic memo pads, and calculators,
among other uses.

Another invaluable telecommunications tool is smaller, lighter fax machines that plug into
any standard electrical outlet and phone line. The devices allow instantaneous transmission of
hard copy to any location having a compatible fax machine. It is expected that faxing will
soon become the primary means of sending and receiving short documents requiring prompt
attentions.
