Read the following passage and circle the letter A, B, C or D on your answer sheet to indicate the correct word

When you read something in a foreign language, you frequently come across words you do not fully
understand. Sometimes you (46)_______ the meaning in a dictionary and sometimes you guess. The strategy you
adopt depends very much upon the degree of accuracy you require and the time at your disposal.
If you are the sort of person who tends to turn to the dictionary frequently, it is (47)_______ remembering
that every dictionary has its limitations. Each definition is only an approximation and one builds up an accurate
picture of the meaning of a word only after meeting it in a (48)_______ of contexts. It is also important to recognize
the special dangers of dictionaries that translate from English into your native language and vice versa. If you
must use a dictionary, it is usually far safer to consult an English-English dictionary
In most exams you are not permitted to use a dictionary. (49)_______ 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

efficient techniques for guessing the meaning, you will overcome a number of possible problems and help yourself
to understand far more of the text than you at first thought likely.
Two strategies which may help you guess the meaning of a word are: using contextual clues, both within

the sentence and outside, and making use of clues (50)_______ from the formation of the word.

Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, or D to indicate the correct answer to each of the
questions.
It is very important to have healthy teeth. Good teeth help us to chew our food. They also help us to look
nice. How does a tooth go bad? The decay begins in a little crack in the enamel covering of the tooth. This happens
after germs and bits of food have collected there then the decay slowly spreads inside the tooth. Eventually, poison
goes into the blood, and we may feel quite ill. How can we keep our teeth healthy? Firstly, we ought to visit our
dentist twice a year. He can fill the small holes in our teeth before they destroy the teeth. He can examine our teeth
to check that they are growing in the right way. Unfortunately, many people wait until they have toothache before
they see a dentist. Secondly, we should brush our teeth with a toothbrush and fluoride toothpaste at least twice a
day-once after breakfast and once before we go to bed. We can also use wooden toothpicks to clean between our
teeth after a meal. Thirdly, we should eat food that is good for our teeth and our body: milk, cheese, fish, brown
bread, potatoes, red rice, raw vegetables and fresh fruit. Chocolate, sweets, biscuits and cakes are bad, especially
when we eat them between meals. They are harmful because they stick to our teeth and cause decay.
