Once upon a time there was a girl calles Cinderella who did all the work in the kitchen while her lazy sister did
nothing.

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 carefully and choose the correct answer.
The primary attraction of snorkeling is the opportunity to observe underwater life in a natural setting, such
as coral reefs, fish, starfish, and mollusks. Other organisms that can be seen while snorkeling include various
forms of seaweed, jellyfish, shrimp and $ea turtles. Snorkeling requires no special training, only the ability to
swim and to breathe through the snorkel. However, it is considered advisable that one get some instruction from
a tour guide, dive shop, or equipment rental shop, any of which often can be found around popular snorkeling
locations. Instruction generally covers equipment usage, basic safety, what to look for, and what to look out for,
including how not to damage fragile organisms such as coral. As with scuba diving, it is always recommended
that one, should not snorkel alone, but rather with a friend, a guide, or a tour group.
Swim fins used in snorkeling are usually longer than those used in diving. Snorkel is a tube about thirty
centimeters (twelve inches) long, usually J-shaped, fitted with a mouthpiece, and constructed of rubber or
plastic. It is used for breathing air from above the water surface when the mouth and nose are submerged, either
when snorkeling or during a surface swim before or after scuba diving. The snorkel usually has a piece of
rubber that attaches the snorkel to the outside of the strap of the diving mask, as sticking the snorkel in between
the strap and the mask could cause the mask to leak, or risk losing the snorkel should the diver choose to switch
to scuba.
Typically, the diving mask also serves to prevent breathing through the nose, so that one is forced to
breathe through the snorkel. This also provides some negative pressure which helps keep the .mask sealed
against the face, though attempting to breathe out through the nose can break this seal and fog the mask.

a. offers divers an opportunity to observe marine life b. needs a very special training
c. does not require an ability to swim d. is too dangerous for everybody to enjoy
2. We cannot get instructions for snorkeling from ________.

Organization.
The WHO's constitution, states that its objective is "the attainment by all peoples of the highest possible level of

influenza vaccine development had achieved encouraging progress. More than 40 clinic trials have been

numbers to terrible proportions and has caused the death of hundreds of species of animals. He has robbed and

of his rise to power, on the edge of the final mass destruction and of killing all the life which exists in the solar
system.

bamboo grows very slowly. It can take ten years for a bamboo to grow from a seed to a big plant. Some types
of bamboo have seeds only once every sixty years.Pandas must wait many years for their food to grow. While

save the pandas. In 1979 they began to set up special parks where pandas live. One such park is the Wolong

Jamie Oliver is Britain’s most famous chef. He made his first TV cooking programmes when he was only
23, got married at 25 and was given a special award by the Queen at 28. A top supermarket used him in their
advertisements for many years, his books on cooking sell better than any other food writer’s, and journalists are
always writing articles about him.
A few years ago, Jamie opened the restaurant Fifteen in London. The name doesn’t describe where the
restaurant is – it’s because he chose this number of young people to become cooks there. Not one of them knew
how to cook so Jamie sent them to college in the year before he opened the restaurant. They also visited other
restaurants to learn more.
Fifteen really started because of a conversation Jamie had with his wife’s friend. She worked with difficult
children and found that they always enjoyed cooking, so Jamie decided to start a restaurant business to help
young people with problems.
The number of people working at Fifteen has grown. The restaurant in London is always full and Jamie has
several receptionists answering phone calls. There is another Fifteen in Amsterdam. Like the London
restaurant, it trains several young people every year. Its chefs also give cooking lessons in Dutch schools. The
children have fun learning to cook and afterward, they can enter a national competition called Junior Chefs.
Those with the best cooking ideas are invited to a party at Fifteen, where the winner is decided.
Question 28. At the age of 23 Jamie Oliver ______.
A. got married B. went on television C. met the Queen D. got a special award
Question 29. Now, Jamie Oliver ______.
A. is the top-selling writer on cooking in Britain B. is working with difficult children
C. does some work for a supermarket D. writes articles for several newspapers

The scarcity of tigers and African elephants is more and more serious. They are endangered because
poachers hunt them in order to sell tiger pelts and elephant ivory.
At least 4,000 elephants are killed each year in order to meet the global demand for ivory, which is
used to make carvings, jewelry and other products although it is illegal to sell ivory since 1989 anywhere.
“Americans should be aware that there is still a problem with elephant poaching and loss to the illegal
ivory trade,” Ginette Hemley, Fund’s vice president for species conservation, told The Washington Post in
September. And so our message is “Don’t buy it, and don’t take that chance”.
A Wildlife Fund report states that the United States seized 8,300 illegal ivory items between 1995 and
2002. Each week there are about 1,000 ivory auctions, the report said.

Read the passage and choose the correct answers:
Scientists often divide resources into two groups: renewable and non– renewable. When a resource is
used, it takes some times to replace it. If the resource can be replaced quickly and easily, it is called
renewable. If it cannot be replaced quickly and easily, it is non-renewable. All fossil fuels are non-renewable
resources. Solar energy, air, and water are usually called renewable because there is an unlimited supply.
However, this definition may change if people are not careful with these resources. The amount of solar
energy that reaches the earth depends on the atmosphere. If the atmosphere is polluted, the solar energy that
reaches the earth may be dangerous. If humans continue to pollute the air, it will not contain the correct
amounts of these gases.
Many resources are limited and non- renewable, and many are in danger of pollution. As a consequence,
resources must be conserved and the environment protected. Conservation must become an important part of
everyone’s life.
46. How many kinds of resources are mentioned in the passage?

B. Life won’t continue as it does
C. Renewable resources will soon become non- renewable
D. All are correct
49. The word conservation in the passage is opposite to

and China. The first games were held in Manila, the Philippines in 1931. Other Asian nations participated
after it was organized.
After World War II, a number of Asian countries became independent. Many of the new independent
Asian countries wanted to use a new type of competition where Asian dominance should not be shown by
violence and should be strengthened by mutual understanding. In August 1948, during the 14 th Olympic
Games in London, Indian representative Guru Dutt Sondhi proposed to sports leaders of the Asian teams the
idea of having discussions about holding the Asian Games. They agreed to form the Asian Athletic
Federation. A preparatory committee was set up to draft the charter for the Asian amateur athletic federation.
In February, 1949, the Asian athletic federation was formed and used the name Asian Games Federation. It
was decided to hold the first Asian Games in 1951 in New Delhi the capital of India. They added that the

collectors ranging up to 20 million in the United States alone.
Many casual collectors enjoy accumulating stamps without worrying about the tiny details, but the
creation of a large or comprehensive collection generally requires some philatelic knowledge. This is
especially important for those who intend to spend large amounts for stamps.

of elaborate stamps designed mainly to be bought by stamp collectors. The stamps produced by these
countries far exceed the postal needs of the countries.

offer an attractive alternative to art, other collectible investments, and precious metals.

Long ago a lot of people thought the moon was a god. Other people thought it was just a light in the sky.
And others thought it was a big ball of cheese.
Then telescopes were made. And men saw that the moon was really another world. They wondered what
it was like. They dreamed of going there.
On July 20, 1969, that dream came true. Two American men landed on the moon. Their names were Neil
Armstrong and Edwin Aldrin.
The first thing the men found was that the moon is covered with dust. The dust is so thick that the men
left footprints where they walked. Those were the first marks a living thing had ever made on the moon. And
they could stay there for years and years. There is no wind or rain to wipe them off.
The two men walked on the moon for hours. They picked up rocks to bring back to earth for study. They
dug up dirt to bring back. They set up machines to find out things people wanted to know. Then they climbed
back into their moon landing craft.
Next day the landing craft roared as the two men took off from the moon. They joined Michael Collins in
the spaceship that waited for them above the moon. Then they were off on their long trip back to earth. Behind
them they left the plains and tall mountains of the moon. They left the machines they had set up. And they left
footprints that may last forever.

A. about the first men to walk on the moon.

No other sporting event captures the world’s imagination like FIFA World Cup. Ever
since the first competition in Uruguay in 1930, FIFA’s flagship has constantly grown in
popularity and prestige. A group of visionary French football administrators led in the 1920s by
the innovative Jules Rimet is credited with the original idea of bringing the world’s strongest
national football teams together to compete for the title of world champions. The original gold
trophy bore Jules Rimet’s name and was contested three times in the 1930s before the Second
World War put a 12-year stop to the competition. When it resumed, the FIFA World Cup
rapidly advanced to its undisputed status as the greatest single sporting event of the modern
world. Held since 1958 alternately in Europe and America, the World Cup broke a new ground
with the Executive Committee’s decision in May 1996 to select Korea and Japan as co-hosts
for the 2002 edition.
Today, the FIFA World Cup holds the entire global public under its spell. An
accumulated audience of over 3.7 billion people watched the France 98 tournament including
approximately 1.3 billion for the final alone, while over 2.7 million people flocked to watch the
64 matches in the French stadiums.
