Since 2006, anyone age 13 and older has been allowed to become a registered user of Facebook though variations exist in minimum age requirement, depending on applicable local laws.

   Over 25 million people in the Uk use Facebook. That’s 45% of population! And on average, each user spends over six hours a month on Facebook. Though not the highest this is a considerable number.

   I think I am a Facebook addict. I log on to Facebook everyday to chat to my friends real friends and loads of online friends. Sometimes I have ten conversations going at the same time.

And then last week I forgot to meet a real friend because I was online! I’ve realised I could have a problem. So I’ve decided to give it up for a while.

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.

   It’s a sound you will probably never hear, a sickened tree sending out a distress signal. But a group of scientists has heard the cries, and they think some insects also hear the trees and are drawn to them like vulture to a dying animal. Researchers with the US Department of Agriculture’s Forest Service fastened sensors to the bark of drought-stricken trees clearly heard distress calls. According to one of the scientists, most parched trees transmit their plight in the 50-hertz to 50kilohertz range. (The unaided human ear can detect no more than 20 kilohertz). Red oak, maple, white pine, and birch all make slightly different sounds in the form of vibrations at the surface of the wood.

   The scientists think that the vibrations are created when the water columns inside tubes that run along the length of the tree break, a result of too little water following through them.

   These fractured columns send out distinctive vibration patterns. Because some insects communicate at ultrasonic frequencies, they may pick up the trees' vibration and attack the weakened trees. Researchers are now running tests with potted trees that have been deprived of water to see if the sound is what attracts the insects. “Water-stressed trees also smell differently from other trees, and they experience thermal changes, so insects could be responding to something other than sound”, one scientist said.

Question 32: All the following are mentioned as possible factors in drawing insects to weakened trees EXCEPT______.

   A. thermal changes

   B. sounds

   C. changes in color

   D. smells

Question 33: It can be inferred from the passage that research concerning the distress signals of trees______.

   A. has been unproductive up to now

   B. is no longer sponsored by the government

   C. was conducted many years ago

   D. is continuing

Question 34: Which of the following could be considered a cause of the distress signals of trees?

   A. attacks by insects

   B. experiments by scientists

   C. torn roots

   D. lack of water

Question 35: Which of the following is the main topic of the passage?

   A. The effect of insects on trees.

   B. The vibrations produced by insects.

   C. The mission of the U.S Forest Service.

   D. The sounds made by trees.

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

   Since water is the basis of life, composing the greater part of the tissues of all living things, the crucial problem of desert animals is to survive in a world where sources of flowing water are rare. And since man’s inexorable necessity is to absorb large quantities of water at frequent intervals, he can scarcely comprehend that many creatures of the desert pass their entire lives without a single drop.

   Uncompromising as it is, the desert has not eliminated life but only those forms unable to withstand its desiccating effects. No moist- skinned, water-loving animals can exist there. Few large animals are found. The giants of the North American desert are the deer, the coyote, and the bobcat. Since desert country is open, it holds more swift-footed running and leaping creatures than the tangled forest. Its population is largely nocturnal, silent, filled with reticence, and ruled by stealth. Yet they are not emaciated. Having adapted to their austere environment, they are as healthy as animals anywhere else in the word. The secret of their adjustment lies in the combination of behavior and physiology. None could survive if, like mad dogs and Englishmen, they went out in the midday sun; many would die in a matter of minutes. So most of them pass the burning hours asleep in cool, humid burrows underneath the ground, emerging to hunt only by night. The surface of the sun-baked desert averages around 150 degrees, but 18 inches down the temperature is only 60 degrees.

Question 10: The author mentions all the following as examples of the behavior of desert animals EXCEPT

   A. they are watchful and quiet

   B. they sleep during the day

   C. they dig home underground

   D. they are noisy and aggressive

Question 11: We can infer from the passage that

   A. healthy animals live longer lives

   B. living things adjust to their environment

   C. desert life is colorful and diverse

   D. water is the basis of desert life

Question 12: According to the passage, creatures in the desert

   A. are smaller and fleeter than forest animals

   B. are more active during the day than those in the tangled forest

   C. live in an accommodating environment

   D. are not as healthy as those anywhere else in the world

Question 13: The phrase “those forms” in the passage refers to all of the following EXCEPT

   A. moist-skinned animals

   B. many large animals

   C. water-loving animals

   D. the coyote and the bobcat

Question 14: The word “them” means

   A. animals      B. minutes

   C. people        D. water

Question 15: The word “emaciated” in the passage mostly means

   A. wild

   B. unmanageable

   C. cunning

   D. unhealthy

Question 16: Man can hardly understand why many animals live their whole life in the desert, as

   A. water is an essential part of his existence

   B. very few large animals are found in the desert

   C. sources of flowing water are rare in a desert

   Millions of people are using cellphones today. In many places, it is actually considered unusual not to use one. In many countries, cellphones are very popular with young people. They find that the phones are more than a means of communication - having a mobile phone shows that they are cool and connected.

   The explosion in mobile phone use around the world has made some health professionals worried. Some doctors are concerned that in the future many people may suffer health problems from the use of mobile phones. In England, there has been a serious debate about this issue. Mobile phone companies are worried about the negative publicity of such ideas. They say that there is no proof that mobile phones are bad for your health.

   On the other hand, medical studies have shown changes in the brain cells of some people who use mobile phones. Signs of change in the tissues of the brain and head can be detected with modern scanning equipment. In one case, a traveling salesman had to retire at young age because of serious memory loss. He couldn't remember even simple tasks. He would often forget the name of his own son. This man used to talk on his mobile phone for about six hours a day, every day of his working week, for a couple of years. His family doctor blamed his mobile phone use, but his employer's doctor didn't agree.

   What is it that makes mobile phones potentially harmful? The answer is radiation. High-tech machines can detect very small amounts of radiation from mobile phones. Mobile phone companies agree that there is some radiation, but they say the amount is too small to worry about.

   As the discussion about their safety continues, it appears that it's best to use mobile phones less often. Use your regular phone if you want to talk for a long time. Use your mobile phone only when you really need it. Mobile phones can be very useful and convenient, especially in emergencies. In the future, mobile phones may have a warning label that says they are bad for your health. So for now, it's wise not to use your mobile phone too often.

Question 26: The word “they” in paragraph 2 refers to _______.

   A. doctors

   B. ideas

   C. professionals

   D. companies

Question 27: The phrase “negative publicity” in paragraph 2 most likely means _______.

   A. poor ideas about the effects of cellphones

   B. information on the lethal effects of cellphones

   C. the negative public use of cellphones

   D. widespread opinion about bad effect of cellphones

Question 28: According to the passage, cellphones are very popular with young people because _______.

   A. they make them look more stylish

   B. they are worrying

   C. they are a means of communication

   D. they are considered unusual

Question 29: What could be the most suitable title for the passage?

   A. Technological Innovations and Their Price

   B. The Way Mobile Phones Work

   C. Mobile Phones: A Must of Our Time

   D. The Reasons Why Mobile Phones Are Popular

Question 30: The word “potentially” in paragraph 4 is closet in meaning to _______.

   A. possibly        B. privately

   C. obviously      D. certainly
