I. Read the passage carefully then answer the questions below it.(10 points)
All languages have rules for forming words and for ordering those words in meaningful
sentences. In written languages, meaning is expressed through a system of characters and rules for
combining those characters. In spoken languages, meaning is expressed through a system of sounds
and rules for combining those sounds. Word order is more important in English than it is in some
languages, such as Russian.
Like other languages English is always changing, but it changes very slowly. People invent
new words, borrow words from other languages, and change the meaning of words as needed. For
example, the English word byte was invented by computer specialists in 1959. The word tomato
was borrowed from Nahuatl, an American Indian language spoken in Mexico. The word meat once
referred to food in general. People learn English as well as languages by listening, copying what
they hear, and using the language. Most children learn their first language easily – and sometimes
other languages as well.
1. What kinds of rules do all languages have?
They have rules for forming words and for ordering those words in meaningful sentences
2. How is meaning expressed in spoken languages?
It is expressed through a system of sounds and rules for combining those sounds.
3. What is more important in English in comparison with some languages?
Word order is.
4. By whom was the word byte invented?
It was invented by computer specialists.
5. How do people learn English and languages in general?
They learn them by listening, copying what they hear, and using the language.

It may not be easy to change your lifestyle (7) completely but some steps are easy to take:
cut down the amount of driving you do, or use as little plastic as possible. It is also easy to save (8)

speakers (56) from opposite sides of the world can understand (57) each other quite easily. It does
not seem to (58) matter where they learnt the language. And of course this is one reason why

III. Read the passage below and choose the correct answer for each question (5.0 points):
Gelatin is a protein substance that comes from the skins and bones of animals. Most people
know it as the substance used to make a jellylike salad or dessert. Not only is it useful in making
these foods, but it is also beneficial to the consumer because of its high protein content. Gelatin is
also commonly used in the photographic industry and in making medicinal capsules.
The process for producing gelatin is a long and complex one. In the processing of gelatin
made from bones (which varies slightly from that of gelatin made from skin), the grease first must
be eliminated. Then the bones are soaked in a solution of hydrochloric acid in order to rid them of
minerals and washed several times in water. Next, the bones are placed in distilled water, heated to
over 900
F for a few hours, placed in fresh distilled water, and then heated again at a little over
1000
F. A fluid forms from this heating, and it is concentrated, chilled, and sliced. Finally, it is dried
and ground. In its final form, gelatin is white, tasteless, and odorless.
71. It can be inferred from the reading passage that………………...
A. fat acids are used in making good gelatin B. one could easily make gelatin at
home C. it is necessary to add minerals to the gelatin

IX. Read the following passages and choose the best answers to the questions.(5ms)
Having reached the highest point of our route according to plan, we discovered something
the map had not told us. It was impossible to climb down into the King valley. The river lay deep
between mountain sides that were almost vertical. We couldn’t find any animal tracks, which
usually show the best way across country, and the slopes were covered so thickly with bushes that
we could not see the nature of the ground. We had somehow to break through to the river which
would give us our direction out of the mountains into the inhabited lowlands.
Our guide cut a narrow path through the bushes with his long knife and we followed in
single file. Progress was slow. Then, when we thought we had really reached the river, we found
ourselves instead on the edge of a cliff with a straight drop of 1,000 feet to the water below. We

climbed back up the slope and began to look for another way down. We climbed, slipped, sweated,
and scratched our hands to pieces and finally arrived at the river. Happily we strode downhill along
its bank without having to cut our way. However, after a few miles the river entered a steep-sided
gap between rocks and suddenly dropped thirty-five feet over a waterfall. There was no path
alongside it and no way round it.
Then one of the guides saw the way of overcoming the difficulty. There was a fallen tree
lying upside down over the waterfall with its leafy top resting on the opposite bank below the falls.
Without hesitation he climbed down the slippery trunk to show us how easy it was. Having got to
fork of the tree, he moved hand over hand along a branch for four or five feet with his legs hanging
in space, then he dropped onto the flat bank the other side, throwing his arms in the air like a
footballer who has scored a goal and cheerfully waving us on.
96. Having reached the highest point on their route, the travelers expected to be able to
A. track animals to the river. B. put away the maps they have been using.
C. approach the river from a different direction D. get down to the river without much
difficulty.

READING
I. Choose the best options A, B, C or D to answer the following questions.
The growth of cities, the construction of hundreds of new factories, and the spread of
railroads in the United Stases before 1850 had increased the need for better illumination. But the
lighting in American homes had improved very little over that of ancient times. Through the
colonial period, homes were lit with tallow candles or with a lamp of the kind used in ancient
Rome- a dish of fish oil or other animal or vegetable oil in which a twisted rag served as a wick.
Some people used lard, but they had to heat charcoal underneath to keep it soft and burnable. The
sperm whale provided superior burning oil, but this was expensive. In 1830 a new substance called
“camphene” was patented, and it proved to be an remained expensive, had an unpleasant odor, and
also was dangerously explosive.
Between 1830 and 1850 it seemed that the only hope for cheaper illumination in the United
States was the wider use of gas. In the 1840s American gas manufacturers adopted improved British
techniques for producing illuminating gas from coal. But the expense of piping gas to the consumer
remained so high that until mid- century gas lighting was feasible only in urban areas, and only for
public buildings for the wealthy. In 1854 a Canadian doctor, Abraham Gesner, patented a process for
distilling a pitch like mineral found in New Brunswick and Nova Scotia that produced illuminating
gas and an oil that he called “kerosene” (from “keros”, the Greek word for wax, and “ene” because it
resembled camphene). Kerosene, though cheaper than camphene, had an unpleasant odor, and Gesner
