Have  you ever seen a greenhouse?  Most greenhouses look (56)                a small glass house. Greenhouses are used to (57)                                        plants, especially in the winter. Greenhouses work by trapping (58)                    from the sun. The glass panels of the greenhouse let in light but keep heat (59)                        escaping. This causes the greenhouse to heat up, much like the inside of a car parked (60)                       sunlight, and keeps the plants warm (61)                               to live in the winter.

The Earth’s atmosphere is all around us. It is the air that we breathe. Greenhouse gases in the atmosphere behave much (62)                               the glass panels in a greenhouse. Sunlight enters the Earth’s atmosphere, passing through  the blanket  of  greenhouse  gases. As (63)                                   reaches the Earth’s surface, land, water, and biosphere absorb the sunlight’s energy. Once absorbed, this energy is sent back (64)                            the atmosphere. Some of the energy passes back into space, (65)                 much of it remains trapped in the atmosphere by the greenhouse gases, causing our world to heat up.

In China, the importance attached  to (71)                                         English is such that a televised teaching course drew audiences of up to one million. But this spread of English thorough the world  is  relatively  recent.  In the (72)                       sixteenth century English was spoken by just under five million  people. The (73)                            of English in North America was the (74)                       step in its worldwide expansion. The United States is a huge commercial market and his has tended to promote the English language in many other nations.

III. Questions 76-80: Read the following passage and choose the correct answer (A, B, C or D). Write your answers into the box below. (5pts)

Many people now think that teachers give pupils too much homework. They say that it is unnecessary for children to work at home in their free time. Moreover, they argue that most teachers do not properly plan the homework tasks they give to pupils. The result is that pupils have to repeat tasks, which they have already done at school.

Recently many parents complained about the difficult homework which teachers gave to their children. The Greek parents said that most of the homework was a waste of time, and they wanted to stop it. Spain and Turkey are two countries, which stopped homework recently. In Denmark, West Germany and several other countries in Europe, teachers cannot set homework at weekends. In Holland, teachers allow pupils to stay at school to do their homework. The children are free to help one another. Similar arrangements also exist in some British schools.

Most people agree that homework is unfair. A pupil who can do his homework in a quiet and comfortable room is in a much better position than a pupil who does his homework in a small, noisy room with the television on. Some parents help their children with their homework. Other parents take no interest at all in their children’s homework.

It is important, however, that teachers talk to parents about homework. A teacher suggests suitable tasks for parents to do with their children. Parents are often better at teaching their own children.

A. to do more difficult homework

B. to do homework both at school and at home

C. to have test homework

D. to do homework at school only

77. According to many parents,                       .

A. a lot of homework has not been planned properly

B. children are too lazy to do

C. teachers do not set enough homework.

D. children shouldn’t be given marks for homework

78. Greek parents thought                       .

A. more time should be allowed for homework

B. their children’s homework was useful

C. their children’s homework was useless

D. their children’s homework was too easy

79. In some countries, especially in Europe                       .

A. teachers cannot have their children do homework at weekends

B. few people think homework to children only at weekends

C. most people agree that it is fair to have children do homework at home

D. teachers are allowed to give children homework only at weekends

80. Pick out the statement that is not true                       .

A. Teachers should advise the parents about how to work together with their children at home

B. Only a small number of people think homework is fair.

C. All parents show great interest in their children’s homework

D. Children can do their homework at school and help each other in some schools in Britain.
