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.

As for tigers, their parts are used in traditional Chinese medicine. Tiger bones are used as a pain reliever in

traditional medicine. Even tiger’s whiskers are sold because some people in Asia think they are a good-luck

charm – like a rabbit’s foot in the United States. “Part of our job is education,” said Professor Dillon. “The other

part is law enforcement. So we have more than one strategy.”

December, 2007 in three provinces in Thailand, namely Nakhon

Ratchsima, Bangkok, and Chon Buri. In fact, the 2007 SEA Games was to be hosted by Singapore, but Singapore

gave up the chance, as its new national sports stadium is under construction and will not be completed in time for

the next SEA Games. Thailand was then asked by The SEA Games Federation to host this regional sport event in

place of Singapore.

The SEA Games takes place every two years, with 11 countries in Southeast Asia participating. Each member

The SEA Games in recent years. The 21

The 24

SEA Games in Thailand this year, featuring 43 sports and 485 gold medals, had the highest number of

sports and gold medals in The Asian Games and The Olympic Games. So The SEA Games is regarded as the largest

regional sporting event in the world in terms of number of sports and medals.

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.

In the world today, particularly in the two most industrialized areas, North America and Europe, recycling is big

news. People are talking about it, practicing it, and discovering new ways to be sensitive to the environment.

Recycling means finding ways to use products a second time. The motto of the recycling movement is "Reduce,

Reuse, Recycle".

The first step is to reduce garbage. In stores, a shopper has to buy products in blister packs, boxes and expensive

plastic wrappings. A hamburger from a fast food restaurant comes in lots of packaging: usually paper, a box, and a

bag. All that packaging is wasted resources. People should try to buy things that are wrapped simply, and to reuse

cups and utensils. Another way to reduce waste is to buy high-quality products. When low quality appliances break,

many customers throw them away and buy new ones - a loss of more resources and more energy. For example, if a

customer buys a high-quality appliance that can be easily repaired, the manufacturer receives an important message.

In the same way, if a customer chooses a product with less packaging, that customer sends an important message to

the manufacturers. To reduce garbage, the throwaway must stop.

The second step is to reuse. It is better to buy juices and soft drinks in returnable bottles. After customers empty the

bottles, they return them to the store. The manufacturers of the drinks collect the bottles, wash them, and then fill

them again. The energy that is necessary to make new bottles is saved. In some parts of the world, returning bottles

for money is a common practice. In those places, the garbage dumps have relatively little glass and plastic from

throwaway bottles.

The third step is being environmentally sensitive is to recycle. Spent motor oil can be cleaned and used again.

Aluminum cans are expensive to make. It takes the same amount of energy to make one aluminum can as it does to

run a color TV set for three hours. When people collect and recycle aluminum (for new cans), they help save one of

the world's precious resources.

13. What is the main topic of the passage?

A. how to reduce garbage disposal

B. what people often understand about the term 'recycle'

C. what is involved in the recycling movement

D. how to live sensitively to the environment.

16. People can do the following to reduce waste EXCEPT _____.

A. buy high-quality product B. buy simply-wrapped things

C. reuse cups D. buy fewer hamburgers

17. Why is it a waste and customers buy low-quality products?

A. Because people will soon throw them away. B. Because they have to be repaired many times.

C. Because customers change their ideas all the time. D. Because they produce less energy.

18. What does it mean 'Customers can vote with their wallets'?

A. they can choose the cheapest products B. they can cast a lot to praise a producer.

C. they can ask people to choose products with less packaging

D. they can tell the producers which products are good for environment by buying them.

19. The word 'motto' is closest in meaning to_____.

A. meaning B. value C. belief D. reference

20. What best describes the process of reuse?

A. The bottles are collected, washed, returned and filled again.

B. The bottles are filled again after being returned, collected and washed.

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 36 to 40.

If parents bring up a child with the sole aim of turning the child into a genius, they will cause a

disaster. According to several leading educational psychologists, this is one of the biggest mistakes

which ambitious parents make. Generally, the child will be only too aware of what his parents expect,

and will fail. Unrealistic parental expectations can cause great damage to children.

However, if parents are not too unrealistic about what they expect their children to do, but are

ambitious in a sensible way, the child may succeed in doing very well – especially if the parents are

very supportive of their child. Michael Collins is very lucky. He is crazy about music, and his parents

help him a lot by taking him to concerts and arranging private piano and violin lessons for

him. They even drive him 50 kilometers twice a week for violin lessons. Michael’s mother knows very

little about music, but his father plays the trumpet in a large orchestra. However, he never makes

Michael enter music competitions if he is unwilling. Winston Smith, Michael’s friend, however, is not

so lucky. Both his parents are successful musicians, and they set too high a standard for Winston. They

want their son to be as successful as they are and so they enter him for every piano competition held.

They are very unhappy when he does not win. Winston is always afraid that he will disappoint his

parents and now he always seems quiet and unhappy.

Question 36: One of the serious mistakes parents can make is to _____.

A. push their child into trying too much B. help their child to become a genius

C. make their child become a musician D. neglect their child’s education

Question 37: Michael Collins is fortunate in that ______.

A. his father is a musician B. his parents are quite rich

C. his mother knows little about music D. his parents help him in a sensible way.

Question 38: The phrase "crazy about" in the passage mostly means ______.

A. "surprised at" B. "extremely interested in"

C. "completely unaware of" D. "confused about"

Question 39: The word “They” in the second paragraph refers to ______.

A. competitions B. concerts

C. Michael’s parents D. Michael’s lessons

Question 40: The two examples given in the passage illustrate the principle that _______.

A. successful parents always have intelligent children

B. successful parents often have unsuccessful children

C. parents should let the child develop in the way he wants

D. parents should spend more money on the child’s education

Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, D to indicate the correct answer to each of the

following questions from 36 to 40

Since the world became industrialized, the number of animal species that have either become extinct or

have neared extinction has increased. Bengal tigers, for instance, which once roamed the jungles in vast

numbers, now number only about 2,300. By the year 2025, it is estimated that they will become extinct.

What is alarming about the case of the Bengal tiger is that this extinction will have been caused almost

entirely by poachers who, according to some sources, are not always interested in material gain but in personal

gratification. This is an example of the callousness that is contributing to the problem of extinction. Animals

such as the Bengal tiger, as well as other endangered species, are valuable parts of the world’s ecosystem.

International laws protecting these animals must be enacted to ensure their survival – and the survival of our

planet.

Countries around the world have begun to deal with the problem in various ways. Some countries, in an

effort to circumvent the problem, have allocated large amounts of land to animals reserves. They then charge

admission prices to help defray the costs of maintaining the parks, and they often must also depend on world

organizations for support. This money enables them to invest in equipment and patrols to protect the animals.

Another response to the increase in animal extinction is an international boycott of products made from

endangered species. This has had some effect, but by itself it will not prevent animals from being hunted and

killed.

36. What is the main topic of the passage?

A. Endangered species B. Problems with industrialization

C. The Bengal tiger D. International boycotts

37. The word “callousness” could be best replaced by which of the following?

A. insensitivity B. indirectness C. incompetence D. independence

38. Which of the following could best replace the word “allocated”?

A. organized B. combined C. taken D. set aside

39. What does the term “international boycott” in the third paragraph refer to?

A. Defraying the cost of maintaining national parks.

B. A global increase in animal survival

C. A refusal to buy animal products worldwide

D. Buying and selling of animal products overseas

40. Which of the following best describes the author’s attitude?

A. concerned B. forgiving C. indifferent D. surprised
