Neil Armstrong started flying at an early age. He became interested in airplanes at the age of 2. At 15, he took flying lessons. He got a license to fly at 16.

Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, or D on your answer sheet to indicate the correct answer to each of the questions from 43 to 50.

Aging is the process of growing old. It occurs eventually in every living thing provided, of course, that an illness or accident does not kill it prematurely. The most familiar outward signs of aging may be seen in

old people, such as the graying of the hair and the wrinkling of the skin. Signs of aging in a pet dog or cat include loss of playfulness and energy, a decline in hearing and eyesight, or even a slight graying of the coat. Plants age too, but the signs are much harder to detect.

Most body parts grow bigger and stronger, and function more efficiently during childhood. They reach their peak at the time of maturity, or early adulthood. After that, they begin to decline. Bones, for example, gradually become lighter and more brittle. In the aged, the joints between the bones also become rigid and more inflexible. This can make moving very painful.

All the major organs of the body show signs of aging. The brain, for example, works less efficiently, and even gets smaller in size. Thinking processes of all sorts are slowed down. Old people often have trouble in remembering recent events.

One of the most serious changes of old age occurs in the arteries, the blood vessels that lead from the heart. They become thickened and constricted, allowing less blood to flow to the rest of body. This condition accounts, directly or indirectly, for many of the diseases of the aged. It may, for example, result in heart attack.

Aging is not a uniform process. Different parts of the body wear out at different rates. There are great differences among people in their rate of aging. Even the cells of the body differ in the way they age. The majority of cells are capable of reproducing themselves many times during the course of a lifetime. Nerve cells and muscle fibers can never be replaced once they wear out.

Gerontologists - scientists who study the process of aging-believe this wearing out of the body is controlled by a built-in biological time-clock. They are trying to discover how this clock works so that they can slow down the process. This could give man a longer life and a great number of productive years.

Question 43: What is the main idea of the first paragraph?

1. Signs of aging are easier to detect in animals than in plants.
2. Aging occurs in every living thing after it has reached maturity.
3. Not all signs of aging are visible.
4. The outward signs of aging may be seen in old people.

Question 44: What does the word “it” in paragraph 1 refer to?

A. aging          B. a living thing          C. an illness     D. an accident

Question 45: When does the human body begin to lose vigor and the ability to function efficiently?

A. Soon after reaching adulthood      B. During childhood

C. Early adulthood     D. In old age

Question 46: What happens to memorization when the brain begins to age?

A. It works less.          B. It becomes forgetful.

C. It declines. D. It slows down.

Question 47: The word “brittle” in paragraph 2 means         .

A. soft and easily bent            B. hard and endurable

C. hard but easily broken        D. rigid and inflexible

Question 48: According to the passage, what condition is responsible for many of the diseases of the old?

1. The arteries have become thickened and constricted.
2. The blood vessels lead from the heart.
3. The brain gets smaller in size.
4. Bones become lighter and brittle.

Question 49: According to the passage, which of the following is NOT true?

1. All living things grow old.
2. Aging is unavoidable in any living things.
3. Plants show less signs of aging than any other living things.
4. Most body parts wear out during the course of a lifetime.

Question 50: What is the main idea of the last paragraph?

2. Gerontologists are working hard to help people live longer and more healthily.
3. Gerontologists are trying to give people an eternal life.
4. Gerontologists are now able to slow down the process of aging.

In the past, technology and progress was very slow. People “invented” farming 12,000 years ago but it took 8,000 years for the idea to go around the world. Then, about 3,500 years ago, people called “potters” used round wheels to turn and make plates. But it took hundreds of years before some clever person thought, if we join two wheels together and make them bigger, we can use them to move things

In the last few centuries, things have begun to move faster. Take a 20th-century invention like the aeroplane, for example. The first acroplane flight on 17 December 1903 only lasted 12 seconds, and the plane only went 37 metres. It can't have been very exciting to watch, but that flight changed the world. Sixteen years later, the first plane flew across the Atlantic, and only fifty years after that, men walked on the moon. Technology is now changing our world faster and faster. So what will the future bring?

One of the first changes will be the materials we use. Scientists have just invented an amazing new material called graphene, and soon we will use it to do lots of things. With graphene batteries in your mobile, it will take a few seconds to charge your phone or download a thousand gigabytes of information! Today, we make most products in factories, but in the future, scientists will invent living materials. Then we won't make things like cars and furniture in factories - we will grow them!

Thirty years ago, people couldn't have imagined social media like Twitter and Facebook. Now we can't llve without them. But this is only the start. Right now, scientists are putting microchips in some disabled people's brains, to help them see, hear and communicate better. In the future, we may all use these technologies. We won't need smartphones to use social media or search the internet because the internet will be in our heads!

More people will go into space in the future, too. Space tourism has already begun, and a hundred years from now, there may be many hotels in space. One day, we may get most of our energy from space too. In 1941, the writer Isaac Asimov wrote about a solar power station in space. People laughed at his idea then, but we should have listened to him. Today, many people are trying to develop a space solar power station. After all, the sun always shines above the clouds!

Question 10: The writer says that in the past .

A. people didn't invent many things   B. people didn't want to use wheels

C. most inventions were to do with farming  D. it took time for new ideas to change things

Question 11: Why does the writer use the example of the aeroplane?

1. To explain why transport changed in the 20th century.
2. Because he thinks It's the most important invention in history.
3. To explain how space travel started.
4. To show how an invention developed quickly.

Question 12: What does the writer say about the future of communication?

1. We can't know what the most popular social media will be.
2. Microchips will become faster.
3. We won't use the internet as much.
4. We won't need devices like smartphones.

Question 13: What does the writer say about space solar power?

1. It's an old idea, but people are only starting to develop it now.
2. It's a science fiction idea, and nobody really thinks it will work.
3. It's much easier to build a solar power station in space than on Earth.
4. People tried it in 1941, but they didn't succeed.

Question 14: The best title for the article would be   .

A. Man in space          B. Will computers rule the world?

C. More and more inventions D. Progress now and then

(307646) Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C or D on your answer sheet to indicate the correct answer to each of the questions from 15 to 22.

[1] Advertising helps people recognize a particular brand, persuades them to try it, and tries to keep them loyal to it. Brand loyalty is perhaps the most important goal of consumer advertising. Whether they produce cars, canned foods or cosmetics, manufacturers want their customers to make repeated purchases. [2] The quality of the product will encourage this, of course, but so, too, will affect advertising.

Advertising relies on the techniques of market research to identify potential users of a product. [3] Are they homemakers or professional people? Are they young or old? Are they city dwellers or country dwellers? Such questions have a bearing on where and when ads should be placed. By  studying readership breakdowns for newspapers and magazines as well as television ratings and other statistics, an advertising agency can decide on the best way of reaching potential buyers. Detailed research and marketing expertise are essential today when advertising budgets can run into thousands of millions of dollars. [4]

Advertising is a fast-paced, high-pressure industry. There is a constant need for creative ideas that will establish a personality for a product in the public's mind. Current developments in advertising increase the need for talented workers.

In the past, the majority of advertising was aimed at the traditional white family - breadwinner father, non-working  mother, and  two  children.  Research  now  reveals  that only  about  6  percent  of American households fit this stereotype. Instead, society is fragmented into many groups, with working mothers, single people and older people on the rise. To be most successful, advertising must identify a particular segment and aim its message toward that group.

Advertising is also making use of new technologies. Computer graphics are used to grab the attention of consumers and to help them see products in a new light. The use of computer graphics in a commercial for canned goods, for instance, gave a new image to the tin can.

Question 15: What does the passage mainly discuss?

1. How to develop a successful advertising plan.
2. New techniques and technologies of market research
3. The central role of advertising in selling products.
4. The history of advertising in the United States.

Question 16: The word “this” in the first paragraph refers to            .

A. repeatedly buying the same brand B. the most important goal

C. the quality of the product  D. effective advertising

Question 17: It can be inferred from the second paragraph that advertisers must    .

1. aim their message at homemakers and professional people
2. know about the people who will buy the product
3. place several ads in newspapers and magazines
4. encourage people to try new products

Question 18: According to paragraph 2, market research includes    .

1. searching for talented workers
2. hiring researchers with background in many fields
3. studying television ratings
4. determining the price of a product

Question 19: The author implies that the advertising industry requires         .

A. a college-educated workforce        B. government regulation

C. innovative thinking            D. millions of dollars

Question 20: According to the passage, most advertising used to be directed at     .

A. working mothers with children      B. older adults

C. unmarried people   D. two-parent families with children
