I. Reading the passage and choose the best answer. Many of the most damaging and life-threating types of weather-torrential rains, severe thunderstorms, and tornadoes-begin quickly, strike suddenly, and dissipate rapidly, devastating small regions while leaving neighboring areas untouched. One such event, a tornado, struck the northeastern section of Edmonton, Alberta, in July 1987. Total damages from the tornado exceeded $250 million, the highest ever for any Canadian storm. Conventional computer models of the atmosphere have limited value in predicting short-live local storms like the Edmonton tornado, because the available weather data are generally not detailed enough to allow computers to discern the subtle atmospheric changes that precede these storms. In most nations, for example, weather balloon observations are taken just once every twelve hours at locations typically separated by hundreds of miles. With such limited data, conventional forecasting models do a much better job predicting general weather conditions over large regions than they do forecasting specific local events.

Until recently, the observation-intensive approach needed for accurate, very short range forecasts, or "Nowcasts", was not feasible. The cost of equipping and operating many thousands of conventional weather stations was prohibitively high, and the difficulties involved in rapidly collecting and processing the raw weather data from such a network were insurmountable. Fortunately, scientific and technological advances have overcome most of these problems. Radar systems, automated weather instruments, and satellites are all capable of making detailed, nearly continuous observation over large regions at a relatively low cost. Communications satellites can transmit data around the world cheaply and instantaneously, and modern computers can quickly compile and analyzing this large volume of weather information. Meteorologists and computer scientists now work together to design computer programs and video equipment capable of transforming raw weather data into words, symbols, and vivid graphic displays that forecasters can interpret easily and quickly. As meteorologists have begun using these new technologies in weather forecasting offices, Nowcasting is becoming a reality. Question 1: What does the passage mainly discuss? A.

Reading the passage and choose the best answers. Light from a living plant or animal is called bioluminescence, or cold light, to distinguish it from incandescence or heat-generating light. Life forms could not produce incandescent light without being burned. Their light is produced in chemicals combining in such a way that little or no measurable heat is produced, and the life forms generating it are unharmed. Although bioluminescence is a relatively complicated process, it can be reduced to simple terms. Living light occurs when luciferin and oxygen combine in the presence of luciferase. In a few cases, fireflies the most common, an additional compound called ATP is required. The earliest recorded experiments with bioluminescence in the late 1800s are attributed to Raphael Dubois, who extracted a luminous fluid from a clam, observing that it continued to glow in the test tube for several minutes. He named the substance luciferin, which means the bearer of life. In further research, Dubois discovered that several chemicals were required for bioluminescence to occur. In his notes, it was recorded that a second important substance, which he called luciferase, was always present. In later study of small, luminous sea creatures, Newton Harley concluded that luciferin was composed of carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen, which are the building blocks of all living cells. He also proved that there are a variety of luciferin and luciferase, specific to the plants and animals that produce them. Much remains unknown, but many scientists who are studying bioluminescence now believe that the origin of the phenomenon may be traced to a time when there was no oxygen in the Earths atmosphere. When oxygen was gradually introduced to the atmosphere, it was actually poisonous to life forms, plants and animals produced light to use up the oxygen in a gradual but necessary adaptation. It is speculated that millions of years ago, all life may have produced light to survive. As the millennia passed, life forms on Earth became tolerant of, and finally dependent on oxygen, and the adaptation that produced bioluminescence was no longer necessary, but some primitive plants and animals continued to use the light for new functions such as mating or attracting prey. Question 46: Which of the following is the main topic of the passage? A. Cold light B. Luciferase


C. Primitive plants and animals D. Earths atmosphere Question 47: According to the author, why has bioluminescence continued in modern plants and animals? A. For survival B. For attracting prey C. For producing heat D. For burning excess oxygen Question 48: The word primitive is closest meaning to: A. very old B. very large C. very important D. very common Question 49: The word relatively is closest meaning to: A. comparatively B. moderately C. exclusively D. partially Question 50: The word it refers to: A. a plant B. an animal C. bioluminescence D. incandescence Question 51: Where in the passage does the author explain how living light occurs? A. Line 1-3 B. Line 4-5 C. Line 10-11 D. Line 11-12 Question 52: What does the author mean by the highlighted statement? A. Chemicals combine to produce light without heat. B. The chemicals that produce heat and light cannot be measured. C. The combination of chemicals produces more heat than light. D. Heat and light are measured by chemicals. Question 53: What is true about luciferin? A. It was recently recovered. B. It was found to be poisonous. C. It occurs in the absence of luciferase. D. It produces light in animals. Question 54: Bioluminescence is described as all of the following EXCEPT: A. a complex chemicals process B. an adaptation of early plants and animals to the environment C. a form of cold light D. a poisonous substance Question 55: The paragraph following the passage most probably discuss: A. incandescence in prehistoric plants and animals B. incandescence in modern plants and animals C. bioluminescence in prehistoric plants and animals D. bioluminescence in modern plants and animals VII.

TEXT 1:

INTERNATIONAL ORGANIZATIONS AND GLOBALIZATION

Globalization can be seen as increased economic, cultural and technological exchange between countries. Examples might be McDonalds in Calcutta and Japanese motor technology in Britain. Many international organizations are pro-globalization, while many others are anti-ones.

The main organizations against globalization are the environmental organizations, such as Friends of the Earth and Greenpeace, who put forward the belief that globalization harms the environment. In general, these organizations blame global corporations for global warning and the depletion of natural resources. The most obvious is oil and gas, but there are others such as tropical rainforests, which are cut down for timber, and the resources of the sea, which may be affected by pollution.

Organizations which represent developing countries, including international aid agencies such as Oxfam, are also against globalization. They are concerned that the global organizations, such as the International Monetary Fund (IMF) and the World Bank, are not doing enough to help the poor and indeed, may be adding to their problems. Some are critical of the World Trade Organization (WTO). They argue that the WTO is making difficult for poor countries to protect and build their own industries.

On the contrary, many organizations are in favor of globalization. Perhaps the most important one is the WTO. This organization was set up in 1995 and has 123 member countries. It administers the rules of international trade agreed by its member countries. The WTOs rules make it difficult for a country to favor their own industry over imports from other countries. The WTO argues that the growth of trade between countries increases the wealth of everyone. Trade allows those who can produce goods most cheaply to do so, thus giving everyone the best possible price.

Another pro-globalization organization is IMF. This was established after World Was 2 in 1946. It aims to promote international cooperation on finance and provide temporary help for countries suffering financial problems. The IMF has 182 member countries.

Finally, the United Nations, which was established after the Second World War, has become a promoter of globalization. It aims to promote a shared set of values in the areas of labour standards, human rights and environmental practices between the UN and the business community.

Question 51: The author mentions McDonalds in Calcutta and Japanese motor technology in Britain as examples of _____

A. Technological exchange B. Cultural exchange C. friendship D. globalization Question 52: The term pro-globalization in line 3 means _____

A. supporting the phenomenon of globalization B. the concept of globalization C. developing professional organizations in the process of globalization D. creating conditions for globalization to develop

TEXT 2:

Researchers in the field of psychology have found that one of the best ways to make an important decision, such as choosing a university to attend or a business to invest in, involves the utilization of a decision worksheet. Psychologists who study optimization compare the actual decisions made by people to theoretical ideal decisions to see how similar they are. Proponents of the worksheet procedure believe that it will yield optimal, that is, the nest decisions. Although there are several variations on the exact format that worksheets can take, they are all similar in their essential aspects.


Worksheets require defining the problem in a clear and concise way and then listing all possible solutions to the problem. Next, the pertinent considerations that will be affected by each decision are listed, and the relative importance of each consideration or consequence is determined. Each consideration is assigned a numerical value to reflect its relative importance. A decision is mathematically calculated by adding these valued together. The alternative with the highest number of points emerges as the best decision.

Since most important problems are multi-faceted, there are several alternatives to choose from, each with unique advantages and disadvantages. One of the benefits of a pencil and paper decision-making procedure is that it permits people to deal with more variables than their minds can generally comprehend and remember. On the average, people can keep about seven ideas in their mind at once. A worksheet can be especially useful when the decision involves a large number of variables with complex relationships. A. realistic example for many college students in the question What will I do after graduation?. A graduate might seek a position that offers specialized training, purse an advanced degree, or travel abroad for a year.

A decision-making worksheet begins with a succinct statement of the problem that will also help to narrow it. It is important to be clear about the distinction between long-range and immediate goals because long-range goals often involve a different decision than short-range ones. Focusing on long-range goals, a graduating student might revise the question above to What will I do after graduation that will lead to a successful career?

Question 62: What does the passage mainly discuss?

A. A comparison of actual decisions and ideal ones B. A tool to assist in making complex decisions C. Research on how people make decisions D. Differences between long-range and short-range decision making

Question 63: The word essential in paragraph 1 is closest in meaning to _____

A. introductory B. changeable C. beneficial D. fundamental Question 64: According to decision-worksheet theory, an optimal decision is defined as one that _____

A. is agreed to by the greatest number of people B. uses the most decision worksheet C. has the most points assigned to it D. is agreed to by the greatest number of people

Question 65: The author organizes paragraph 2 by _____

A. describing a process B. classifying types of worksheets C. providing historical background D. explaining a theory

Question 66: The author states that On the average, people can keep about seven ideas in their mind at once (paragraph 3) to explain that _____

A. most decisions involve seven steps B. human mental capacity has limitations C. some people have difficulty making minor as well as major decisions D. people can learn to keep more than seven ideas in their minds with practice
