II. Read the following passage and choose the best answer from A, B, C or D to the questions.
A pilot cannot fly 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. Since 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 the
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 for 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.
1. What is the main topic of this passage?

A. The nature of radar. B. History of radar.
C. Alternatives to radar. D. Types of ranging.
2. According to the passage, what can radar detect besides locations of objects?
A. Shape B. Speed C. Size D. Weight
3. Which type of waves does radar use?
A. tidal B. heat C. sound D. radio
4. The word tracking in the passage most closely means _______.
A. sending B. repairing C. ranging D. searching for
5. What might be inferred from the passage about radar?
A. It has improved navigational safety. B. It was developed from a study of sound waves.
C. It takes the place of a radio. D. It gave birth to the invention of the airplane.
Your answer:
1. 2. 3. 4. 5.
III. Fill in each numbered blank with a suitable word in the following passage.
The idea that a blind person could drive a car sounds crazy. And the concept of someone who
can’t see driving a car at almost 150 miles per hour sounds even (1) _______. Miranda Naylor, a blind
accountant from Southport, has done exactly that in an attempt to (2) _______ money for charity. Mrs.
Naylor drove (3) _______ sports car for two miles in a straight line along the runway of a disused

BENJAMIN FRANKLIN
Few people can embody the spirit of early America as much as Benjamin Franklin. He lived
through almost the whole of the eighteenth century, being born six years after, and dying
ten years before it ended. In this time he saw the American colonies grow from tiny
settlements into a nation, and he also contributed much to the development of the new
state.
At the age of 17 Franklin ran away to Philadelphia. He had already received some training
as a printer’s apprentice, and this helped him seven years later, with his first publication,
the Pennsylvania Gazette. He also received a contract to do government printing work,
which helped him to rise from his poor background to become a successful entrepreneur.
Some of his experience in business was shared in his famous Poor Richard’s Almanak,
which established his reputation throughout the American colonies. In another of his
works, the Autobiography, which was written toward the end of his life, he shows the
same quiet common sense.
He was deeply interested in science and natural history, and his experiments with
electricity and lightning led directly to the invention of the lightning rod. He was also
interested in improving the conditions of his fellow men. He was involved in a number of
projects in his native Philadelphia, including the setting up of a library, a university, a
philosophical society, and–because he was a pragmatic man–a fire prevention service. In
1753 he became Postmaster–General of the colonies. Through this experience he began to
develop the idea that the colonies of North America should be a single nation. Later, he
went to London to try to persuade the British government to change the conditions,
especially the taxes, that later led the American colonists into rebellion.

Whatever Benjamin Franklin’s personal feelings about the rebellion of the American
states, he worked hard to make it succeed. As ambassador to France, he encouraged the
French to help George Washington. After the war he attended the American constitutional
congress. This was his last contribution, for he died later that year. He is still fondly
remembered by Americans as one of the creators of the United States.
1. What is a good description for this text?

A. An autobiography of Benjamin Franklin. B. The life of Benjamin Franklin.
C. The works of Benjamin Franklin. D. Franklin and American Independence.
2. When was Benjamin Franklin born?
A. 1806 B. 1794 C. 1717 D. 1706
3. Which of these happened first?
A. Franklin trains as a painter. B. Franklin runs away to Philadelphia.
C. the American colonies rebel D. Franklin starts his first publication.
4. What was Poor Richard’s Almanak about?
A. Franklin’s reputation. B. How to succeed in business.
C. how to do government printing. D. The text does not say.
5. In which countries did Franklin live?
A. England and France. B. Philadelphia and England.
C. London and America. D. England, America and France.
II. Read the text below and think of the word which best fits each space. Use only one
word in each space. There is an example at the beginning (0). (15 points)

C. READING (30 points).
I. Read the passage below and choose the best answer for each question. (5 points)
People have been playing with marbles for thousands of years. The first marbles were
probably either river stones that happened to be naturally round enough to roll or, more
likely, rounded globs of clay that were baked hardness. Such very old clay marbles have been
found in both Greek and Roman ruins, and quartz spheres have been dated at around 6000
B.C. Harder and more durable marbles tend to inspire different kinds of games than soft clay
marbles, which crack very easily. So with the advent of hand rounded and polished marbles
made of agate or some other rugged, igneous rock, the ‘golden age’ of marbles and marble play
flowered. Stone marbles began to appear in the early 1800s in what is now the southern part
of Germany. Shortly after, handmade glass marbles appeared in the same part of Europe. For
the next 120 years, marbles and marble playing-there were literally hundred of games -
flourished in both Europe and America. Marble players developed their own vocabulary for
different sizes and materials of marbles, as well as for the many kinds of games to be played
and the way marbles were used in the games. For example, if you were going to play a game of
Ring-Taw, one of the most popular and enduring marbles games, you would lag for the first
shot, and then knuckle down from the baulk, trying your best to get a mib or two with your
opponent’s immie.
1. The author makes the point in the passage that playing with marbles __________.
A. has been going on since ancient times C. is losing popularity
D. is a very expensive pastime
B. is a relatively recent phenomenon

2. According to the passage, which of the following was the least used substance for making
marbles?
A. agate B. glass C. rock D. clay
3. It can be inferred from the passage that the use of marbles became very popular in Europe
and America __________.
A. in the 18th century C. in 6000 B.C
D. after glass marbles were developed
B. in the 1970s
4. We can infer from the passage that marble playing __________.
A. is a game only for children C. is played according to one set of rules
B. has many variations in games D. uses only one kind of marble
5. We can conclude from lines 11-12 of the passage that the terminology of marble playing is
__________.
A. specialized C. easy to understand
B. used only by children D. derived from an ancient language

Man is a land animal, but he is also closely tied to the sea. Throughout history the sea has
served the need of man. The sea has provided man with food and a convenient way to travel to
many parts of the world. Today, nearly two thirds of the world’s population live within 80 kms
of the sea coast.
In the modern technological world, the sea offers many resources to help mankind survive.
Resources on land are beginning to be used up. The sea, however, still can be hoped to supply
many of man’s needs. The list of riches of the sea yet to be developed by man’s technology is
impressive. Oil and gas explorations have been carried out for nearly 30 years. A lot of
valuable minerals exist on the ocean floor ready to be mined.
Fish farming promises to be a good way to produce large quantities of food. The culture of
fish and shellfish is an ancient skill practised in the past mainly by Oriental people.
Besides oil and gas, the sea may offer new sources of energy. Experts believe that the warm
temperature of the ocean can be used in a way similar to the steam in a steamship. Ocean
currents and waves offer possible use as a source of energy.
Technology is enabling man to explore ever more deeply under the sea. The development
of strong, new materials has made this possible.
The technology to harvest the sea continues to improve. Experts believe that by the year
2050s the problems that prevent us from fully exploiting the food, minerals, and energy
sources of the sea will be largely solved.
1. The best title for this passage is ___________.
A. Sea Harvest. B. Technology and the Exploiting of the Sea.
C. Sea Food. D. Man and Sea.
2. The major things that the sea offers man are ___________.

3. The sea serves the needs of man because ___________.
A. it provides man with sea food. B. it offers oil to man.
C. it supplies man with minerals. D. all of the above.
4. The word Oriental people in the fourth paragraph probably means ___________.
A. European people. B. African people.
C. Asian people. D. American people.
5. We can conclude from the passage that ___________.
A. the sea resources have largely been used up.
B. the sea, in a broad sense, hasn’t yet been developed.
C. the problems that prevent us from fully exploiting the sea have already been solved.
D. by the year 2050, the technology will be good enough to exploit all the sea resources.

As far back as 700 B.C, man has talked about children to be cared for by wolves.
Romulus and Remus, the legend twin founders of Rome, were purported to have
been cared for by wolves. It is believed that why a she-wolf loses her litter, she
seeks a human child to take its place.
This seeming preposterous idea did not become credible until the late nineteenth
century when a French doctor actually had found a naked ten-year-old boy
wandering in the woods. He did not walk erect, could not speak intelligibly, or could
lie relate to people. He only growled and stared of them. Finally the doctor won the
boy's confidence and began to work with them. After many long years of devoted
and patient instruction, the doctor was able to have the boy to clothe and feed
himself, recognize and utter a number of word, as well as write letters and form
words. 1. ¬¬____

neither the first nor the last child prodigy, but he was certainly the greatest. He was
born into a moderately prosperous family where his unmatched musical genius
made itself known extremely early.
Mozart began leaning to play harpsichord at three and his earliest known work was
composed in 1761 when he was five, the age at which he also first appeared in
public.
From the age of six, when his father took him on the first foreign tour, Mozart
toured the courts and musical centres of Austria, Germany, France, England,
Holland, Switzerland and Italy. It has been calculated that Mozart spent almost a
third of his short life - he died at the age of thirty five – travelling.
As Mozart matured, he continued to tour and give concerts. Mozart also wrote a lot
of operas. His first opera, Mitridate, Re di Ponto, was performed in Milan when he
was 14, and it was the first of many successes in the theatre.
1. How rich was Mozart’s family?
A. Very rich
B. As rich as a financial C. Not very rich
D. Very poor
2. When did he take the first step into the world of music as a composer?
A. When he was three
B. When he was five C. When he was fourteen
D. When he was thirty-five
3. What did he do on his first tour to some major European countries?
A. He made so much sightseeing
B. He toured the courts and musical centres C. He toured only
D. He did nothing
4. Why is it possible to name Mozart “A travelling composer”?

A. Because he spent almost a third of his short life travelling.

B. Because he liked travelling a lot. C. Because he never travelled.
D. Because he had good imagination.
5. What expression in the passage means “an exceptionally clever child” ?

A. A child normal
