Leonardo Dicaprio is one of the hottest young film stars around at the moment. His face has been on the covers of all the top movies and young magazines over the last few months and he has been the subject of countless articles, rumors and showbiz gossip. Leonard doesn’t like reading about himself because “I read things about me that I’ve never said in my life and never did”. Leonardo was born in Los Angeles on 11 November, 1974. He’s a Scorpio. His full name is Leonardo Wilhelm Dicaprio. His mother is German and his father Italian – American. They called him Leonardo because when his mother was still pregnant, he started kicking while she was stood in front of a painting by Leonardo Da Vinci. His friends call him Leo. He has a scar from when he was stung by a Portuguese man-of –war. His parents separated before he was born, so his mother moved to a poor neighborhood of Hollywood there Leo grew up. At school he was very good at imitating people, especially Michael Jackson. This made him very popular. His childhood hero was Poseidon, the Greek god of the sea. After appearance in TV commercials and episodes of Roseanne, he played the cast of Roseanne, the TV sitcom starring Kirk Cameron. Leonard played the part of Luke, a homeless boy.

II. Read the passage and choose the best option (A, B, C or D) for each of the following questions. Write your answers in the numbered boxes. (2.0 points)

New surveys suggest that the technological tools we use to make our lives easier are killing our leisure time. We are working longer hours, taking fewer and shorter vacations (and when we do go away, we take our cell phones, PDAs, and laptops along). And, we are more stressed than ever as increased use of e-mail, voice mail, cell phones, and the Internet is destroying any idea of privacy and leisure.

Since the Industrial Revolution, people have assumed that new labor-saving devices would free them from the burdens of the workplace and give them more time to grow intellectually, creatively, and socially – exploring the arts, keeping up with current events, spending more time with friends and family, and even just ‘goofing off’.

But here we are at the start of the 21st century, enjoying one of the greatest technological boom times in human history, and nothing could be further from the truth. The very tools that were supposed to liberate us have bound us to our work and study in ways that were inconceivable just a few years ago. It would seem that technology almost never does what we expect.

In ‘the old days’, the lines between work and leisure time were markedly clearer. People left their offices at a predictable time, were often completely disconnected from and out of touch with their jobs as they traveled to and from work, and were off-duty once they were home. That is no longer true. In today’s highly competitive job market, employers demand increased productivity, expecting workers to put in longer hours and to keep in touch almost constantly via fax, cell phones, e-mail, or other communications devices. As a result, employees feel the need to check in on what is going on at the office, even on days off. They feel pressured to work after hours just to catch up on everything they have to do. Workers work harder and longer, change their work tasks more frequently, and have more and more reasons to worry about job security.

Bosses, colleagues, family members, lovers, and friends expect instant responses to voice mail and e-mail messages. Even college students have become bound to their desks by an environment in which faculty, friends, and other members of the college community increasingly do their work online. Studies of time spent on instant messaging services would probably show staggering use.

This is not what technology was supposed to be doing for us. New technologies, from genetic research to the Internet, offer all sorts of benefits and opportunities. But, when new tools make life more difficult and stressful rather than easier and more meaningful – and we are, as a society, barely conscious of it – then something has gone seriously awry, both with our expectations for technology and our understanding of how it should benefit us.

1. Which of the following is NOT TRUE about technological tools, according to new surveys?

A. They make our life more stressful.

B. They are used even during vacations.

C. They bring more leisure to our life.

D. They are being increasingly used

2. Which of the following is TRUE, according to the passage?

A. Employees were supposed to make technology do what they expected.

B. People now enjoy greater freedom thanks to the technological boom.

C. Students used to have to study more about technological advances.

A. have brought us complete happiness

B. have turned out to do us more harm than good

C. have not interfered with our privacy

D. have fully met our expectations

5. With the phrase “at a predictable time”, the author implies that ___________.

A. people had to predict the time they were allowed to leave offices

B. people wanted to be completely disconnected from their work

C. people used to have more time and privacy after work

D. people were unable to foresee their working hours

6. It can be inferred from the fourth paragraph that ___________.

A. life is more relaxing with cell phones and other technological devices

B. it is compulsory that employees go to the office, even on days off

C. employees have more freedom to decide what time they start and finish work

III. Read the following passage and complete the questions below. Write your answers in the numbered boxes. (2.0 points)

(1) Mass media, which includes television, radio, newspapers, and the internet, has greatly influenced the entertainment industry. With the development of digital technology and the expansion of the internet, the way people access entertainment has changed significantly. These changes have affected both the content itself and how it is delivered to audiences.

(2) One major effect of mass media on entertainment is the ability for anyone to create and share content. In the past, large studios and networks controlled what people could watch or listen to. Today, platforms such as YouTube, TikTok, and streaming services let independent creators share their work with the world. As a result, entertainment has become more diverse, and people from different backgrounds can express their ideas and experiences.

(3) Mass media has also contributed to the globalization of entertainment. Music, films, and TV shows from different countries can now reach international audiences quickly. This exchange has led to new styles and genres, making entertainment more dynamic. A clear example of this is the worldwide success of K-pop, which has gained millions of fans outside South Korea thanks to social media and online streaming.

(4) Social media has also changed how people interact with entertainment. Platforms like Instagram and Twitter allow fans to communicate directly with their favorite artists, creating a stronger connection between them. Additionally, viral trends on social media influence what becomes popular, affecting how content is produced and marketed. Entertainment companies now focus on interactive marketing to attract and engage audiences.

(5) Despite these benefits, mass media also has some negative effects. The pressure to create viral content can result in a focus on sensationalism rather than quality. This can lead to shallow content that prioritizes popularity over meaningful storytelling.

(6) In conclusion, mass media has reshaped entertainment by making it more accessible and diverse. While it offers many opportunities, it also presents challenges that creators must navigate carefully.

For questions 1 - 5, complete the summary with the correct words or phrases. Write NO MORE THAN TWO WORDS for each answer. You may have to change the form of the words or phrases.

Mass media, including television, radio, newspapers, and the internet, has significantly transformed the entertainment industry. The rise of digital technology and the internet has changed how people access and consume content. One key impact is that (1) ___________ can now share their work through platforms like YouTube and TikTok, facilitating (2) ___________. Additionally, entertainment has become global, as seen in K- pop's (3) ___________. Social media strengthens audience interaction but also influences trends. However, the focus on popular content may lead to challenges such as (4) ___________. Overall, entertainment has become more accessible and diverse, there are difficulties that require thoughtful (5) ___________ from creators.

Choose FIVE headings from the box for paragraph 1 to 5 in the text and write the correct letter, A-H, next to Questions 6- 10.
