Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, or D on your answer sheet to
indicate the correct answertoeachofthequestionsfrom 36 to 42.
Most people think that lions only come from Africa. This is understandable because
in fact most lions do come from there but this has not always been the case. If we went back
ten thousand years. we would find that there were lions roaming vast sections of the globe.
However no, unfortunately only a very small section of the lion’s former habitat remains.


Asiatic lions are sub-species of African lions. It is almost a hundred thousand years
since the Asiatic lions split off and developed as a sub-species. At one time the Asiatic lion
was living as far west as Greece and they were found from there, but in a band that spreads
east through various countries of the Middle East, all the way to India. In museums now, you
can see Greek coins that have clear images of the Asiatic lion on them. Most of them are
dated at around 500 B.C. However, Europe saw its last Asiatic lions roaming free to thousand
years ago. Over the next nineteen hundred years the numbers of Asiatic lions in the other
areas declined steadily, but it was only in the nineteenth century that they disappeared from

everywhere but in India.
The Gir Wildlife Sanctuary in India was established especially to protect the Asiatic
lion. There are now around three hundred Asiatic lions in India and almost all of them are in
this sanctuary. However, despite living in a sanctuary, which makes them safe from hunters,
they still face a number of problems that threaten their survival. One of these is the everpresent danger of disease. This is what killed more than a third of Africa’s Serengeti lions in
1994, and people are fearful that something similar could happen in the Gir Sanctuary and
kill off many of the Asiatic lions there.
India’s lions are particular vulnerable because they have a limited gene pool. The
reason for this is interesting – it is because all of them are descended from a few dozen lions
that were saved by a prince who took a particular interest in them. He was very healthy, and
he managed to protect them otherwise they would probably have died out completely.
When you see the Asiatic lion in India, what you sense is enormous vitality. They are very
impressive animals and you would never guess that they this vulnerability when you look at
them.
Question 36: According to the passage, ten thousand years ago,

.

A. lions did not live in small forests
B. lions came mainly from Afric
C. lions roamed much more than nowadays
D. there were much more lion habitats than nowadays
Question 37: The phrase “split off” in the second paragraph is closest in meaning to
A. spotted animals

B. divided

C. developed into different species

D. changed the original species

Question 38: The word “vulnerable” in paragraph 4 is closest in meaning to
A. weak

B. careless

C. cautious

.

.

D. easily protected


Question 39: The Asiatic lion

.

A. was looking for food mainly in the Middle East
B. was searching for food in a wide range of countries
C. was searching for food mainly in India and Africa
D was looking for food mainly in India.
Question 40: According to the author, the Gir Wildlife Sanctuary
A. protects the Asiatic lion from hunters and diseases
B. cannot reduce the Asiatic lion’s risk of catching diseases
C. can make the Asiatic lion become weak
D. is among many places where the Asiatic lion is well protected

If you enjoy water sports, Hawaii is the place for you. You can go swimming all year
round in the warm water. You can go sport fishing from the shore or from a boat. If you like
boats, you can go sailing, canoeing, or windsurfing. Or, you can also try some other water
sports that are especially popular in Hawaii: surfing, snorkeling and scuba diving.
Surfing is a sport which started in Hawaii many years ago. The Hawaiians called it
“he’e nalu”, which means “to slide on a wave”. If you want to try surfing, you need, first of
all, to be a good swimmer. You also have to have an excellent sense of balance. You must
swim out from the beach with your surfboard under your arm. When you get to where the
waves begin to break, you wait for a calm moment. Then you try to stand up on the board.
The wave will begin to rise under you. You must try to steer the board with your feet so you
stay on top of the wave. The important thing is to keep your balance and not fall down. If you

can manage this, you will have an exciting ride all the way in to the shore.
Scuba diving and snorkeling are two ways to get a close look at the beauty lying
below the surface of the ocean. The waters off the Hawaiian Islands are clean, clear and


warm. They contain hundreds of kinds of colorful fish. The undersea world is made even
more colorful by the coral reefs of red, gold, white and light purple. Among these reefs there
may be larger fish or sea turtles.
Scuba diving allows you to see the most interesting undersea sights. “Scuba” means
“Self- contained Underwater Breathing Apparatus”, that is, equipment for breathing and
swimming around far under water. In Hawaii, you can take special courses to learn how to
scuba dive. After the courses, you can get a certificate that will allow you to dive alone.
Since it can be dangerous, proper instruction and great care are always necessary when you
are scuba diving.
If you are adventurous, you might try snorkeling instead of scuba diving. Less
equipment is needed, just a face mask, a breathing tube (snorkel) and flippers for your feet. It
only takes a few minutes to learn how to snorkel. Although you cannot dive deep into the
water, you can swim with your face below the surface. Breathing through the tube, you float
on the surface, and keep yourself moving with your flippers. Even from the surface like this,
there will be plenty of color and beauty to see.

.

A. water sports are all expensive

Most people go to a doctor in their own town or suburbs. But people in the Australian
outback can’t get to a doctor quickly. The nearest doctor is sometimes hundreds of
kilometers away so they have to call him on a two-way radio. This special doctor is called
the “flying doctor”. He visits sick people by plane.
When someone is sick, the doctor has to fly to the person’s home. His plane lands on
a flat piece of ground near the person’s house. Sometimes the doctor has to take the patient
to hospital. Flying doctors take about 8,600 people to hospital each year.
However, most of the time the person isn’t very sick, and the doctor doesn’t have to
visit. He can give advice on the radio from the office at the flying doctor center. He can tell
the patient to use some medicine from a special medicine chest. There is one of these chests

in every home in the outback. Each bottle, tube and packet in the chest has a number. The
doctor often says something like this, “Take two tablets from bottle number 5 every four
hours.”


A man called John Flynn started the Royal Flying Doctor service in 1927. He had
only one plane. Today there are 14 flying-doctor centers, 29 planes, 14 full-time doctors and
several part- time doctors, nurses and dentists.

C. a vast and remote area
D. a far-off forest
Question 39: The word “chest” in this context probably means
A. a body part

B. a machine

C. a remote control

indicate the correctanswertoeachofthequestionsfrom 43 to 50.
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 80% of all human illnesses are
related to diet and 40% of cancer is related to the diet as well, especially cancer of the colon.
People of different cultures are more prone to contract certain illnesses because of the
characteristic foods they consume.
That food is related to illness is not a new discovery. In 1945, government
researchers realized that nitrates and nitrites (commonly used to preserve color in meats) as
well as other food additives caused cancer. Yet, these carcinogenic additives remain on our
food, and it becomes more difficult all the time to know which ingredients on the packaging
labels of processed food are healthful or harmful.
The additives that we eat are not all so direct. Farmers often give penicillin to cattle
and poultry, and because of this, penicillin has been found in the milk of treated cows.
Sometimes similar drugs are administered to animals not for medicinal purposes, but for
financial reasons. The farmers are simply trying to fatten the animals in order to obtain a
higher price on the market. Although the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has tried
repeatedly to control these producers, the practices continue.
A healthy diet is directly related to good health. Often we are unaware of detrimental
substances we ingest. Sometimes well-meaning farmers or others who do not realize the
consequences add these substances to food without their knowledge
Question 43: How has science done a disservice to people?
A. Because of science, disease caused by contaminated food has been virtually
eradicated
B. It has caused a lack of information concerning the value of food
C. As a result of scientific intervention, some potentially harmful substances have been added
