Read the passage carefully and choose the correct answer:
If parents bring up a child with the sole aim of turning the child into a genius, they will cause a disaster. According to several leading educational psychologists, this is one of the biggest mistakes which ambitious parents make. Generally, the child will be only too aware of what his parents expect, and will fail. Unrealistic parental expectations can cause great damage to children.
However, if parents are not too unrealistic about what they expect their children to do, but are ambitious in a sensible way, the child may succeed in doing very well – especially if the parents are very supportive of their child. Michael Collins is very lucky. He is crazy about music, and his parents help him a lot by taking him to concerts and arranging private piano and violin lessons for him. They even drive him 50 kilometers twice a week for violin lessons. Michael’s mother knows very little about music, but his father plays the trumpet in a large orchestra. However, he never makes Michael enter music competitions if he is unwilling. Winston Smith, Michael’s friend, however, is not so lucky. Both his parents are successful musicians, and they set too a high standard for Winston. They want their son to be as successful as they are and so they enter him for every piano competition held. They are very unhappy when he does not win. Winston is always afraid that he will disappoint his parents and now he always seems quiet and unhappy.
28. One of the serious mistakes parents can make is to .
A. make their child become a musician
B. help their child to become a genius
C. push their child into trying too much
D. neglect their child’s education
29. Who have criticized the methods of some ambitious parents?
A. Educational psychologists.
B. Unrealistic parents.
C. Their children.
D. Successful musicians.
30. Michael Collins is fortunate because _.
A. his parents help him in a sensible way
B. his parents are quite rich
C. his mother knows little about music
D. his father is a musician
31. The word "They" in line 10 refers to .
A. violin lessons
B. Concerts
C. parents in general
D. Michael’s parents
32. Winston’s parents push their son so much and he .
A. cannot learn much music from them
B. is afraid to disappoint them
C. has become a good musician
D. has won a lot of piano competitions

Read and choose the best answer.
There are books with fairy tails in many countries. Often the same stories are known and repeated in many languages. Some of the things that happens in these stories are remarkable, although not as remarkable as things that are truly happening in medicine and science today.
Most fairy tails begin with “Once upon a time” and end with “They lived happily ever after”, so we will begin in the same way.
Once upon a time there was a girl called Cinderella who did all the work in the kitchen while her lazy sister did nothing.
One night, her sister went to a ball at the palace. Cinderella was left home, very sad.
After a time her fairy godmother appeared and told Cinderella that she could go to the ball- but to return home by midnight.
So she went to the ball in a beautiful dress in a wonderful coach. She danced with the prince but at midnight she ran back home, leaving one of her shoes on the floor. The prince wanted to see her again and went to every house in the capital until he found that the shoe was the right size for Cinderella. She and the price were married and lived happily ever after.

Read the passage and choose the best option to answer each question below
What makes science fiction the literature choice for so many? Arthur C. Clarke, the novelist and scientist, gave a good answer once when asked why he chose to write in this genre: “Because,” he said, “no other literature is concerned with reality.”
Clarke didn’t say what sort of reality he had in mind, but there are two that suggest themselves. One of those significant realities of our time is the rapid advances in science and technology. Those are the things that have made the twentieth century move so fast, in ways that earlier generations could hardly even imagine, and science fiction has played some part in accelerating their progress. In the 1930s there was no television, radio showed little interest in science, even the daily newspapers covered it scantily and not very well; but science fiction magazines were exploring in every newsstand edition the latest concepts from genetics and nuclear physics to cosmology. I think it is fair to say that a majority of the world’s leading scientists today were first turned on to their subjects by reading science-fiction stories.
The other reality that has contributed to a fascination with science fiction is that the central fact of contemporary life is rapid, ever-accelerating change, change that alters the rules of all our lives all the time. And science fiction is, in essence, the literature of change.
26. Which of the following would be the best title for this passage?
A. Why Read Science Fiction?
B. How Science Relates to Reality?
C. Popular Literature of the 1930s.
D. Topics in Science Fiction.
27. What is the author's main purpose in this passage?
A. To explain the popularity of science-fiction literature.
B. To show the need for science- fiction literature.
C. To classify different types of literature.
D. To discuss the work of Arthur C. Clarke.
28. According to the passage, which of the following carried news of science and technology to the public in the 1930s?
A. Radio broadcasts.
B. Science-fiction magazines.
C. Television programs
D. Newspaper coverage.
29. The author mentions all of the following as being part of the reality with which science-fiction is concerned EXCEPT ..................................
A. change
B. science
C. publication
D. technology
30. The phrase " turn on to" could be best replaced by which of the following?

C. introduced to
D. changed by

Read the following passages and choose the correct answer.
"They told me I could never walk again. But when I listened to music, I forgot all about the pain. I found a strength I didn't know I had." Ninety-two-year-old Tina Goodman, who regained her ability to walk, thanks to music.
This is one of the many stories in Fettaro's book " The Healing Power of Music". Fettaro tries to show just how important music is in our lives and how it can help us to be healthy and happy.
According to Fettaro, music can make sick people well again. In fact, his book comes with a CD of recordings, each one specially designed to help with a number of health problems.
Fettaro, a well-known music therapist, promises that by reading his book, you will be able to develop the healing power of music in your life. He says this will help you fight headaches and back pain, as well as reduce stress, high blood pressure, and many other common illnesses.
Certainly, I accept that listening to certain types of music can help with particular problems, such as stress. I'm also comfortable with Fettaro's claim that by reading his book, you will be able to create a peaceful environment to help you relax in your home. I found the relaxation and breathing techniques very useful. Similarly, his claim that music will help you sleep better seems reasonable. Yet when he goes on to promise his music therapies will help cure depression and even cancer, he begins to sound a little bit unbelievable.
Nevertheless, for those of you who are interested in the power of music to heal, this is a great book to buy. It's a thorough introduction to the history and practice of music therapy. Fettaro writes in a simple, easy to understand way and shows clearly how music can affect us positively. His basic message- that music can improve our lives- is well- presented and clear. It may even be true that certain techniques covered here can help people recover from unpleasant health problems. However, his promises of "amazing results" seem impossible to justify.
