IV. The passage below contains 10 mistakes. IDENTIFY and CORRECT them. 1
Man has always depended on plants of food and many other useful products. For this
reason, farming is that of the world's most important industries. At first, early man did
not know how to plant seeds and raise crops. He gathered wide fruits and vegetables 3
where he found them. Then man discovered how to grow his own food. He planted
5 seeds and waited for the crop to grow. For the first time, he could be reasonably sure of
his food supply. He could settle down and build shelters in the places where he grew
food. Populations beginning to increase, the demand for food became greater. Old-
fashioned tools and farming methods were inefficient at meeting the demand. So man
cultivated more still more land and invented more complicated machines to make his
10 work easier. Tractors replaced horses and other farm animals. Scientists studied and
experimented with plants. They told farmers how to control plant diseases, and how too
grow bigger and better crops. Now another man, with a knowledge of plants and the
help of machine, can cultivate hundreds of acres. He can raise plants which does not
originally grow in the soil or weather of his community. Your answers: Line Qs Mistakes Corrections Line Qs Mistakes Corrections …… 48 …… 53 …… 49 …… 54 …… 50 …… 55 …… 51 …… 56 …… 52 …… 57 PART D: READING
I. Fill in each blank with only ONE word.
The normal body temperature of a full-grown person measure 98,6 degrees on a
Fahrenheit (58) . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . Although the body's temperature may vary above and
(59) . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . this point, the variations are usually quite small. A change in the

II. Read the following passage and then choose the correct answer.
The issue of equality for women in British society first attracted national attention in the
early 20th century, when the suffragettes won for women the right to vote. In the 1960s
feminism became the subject of intense debate when the women’s liberation movement
encouraged women to reject their traditional supporting role and to demand equal status and
equal rights with men in areas such as employment and pay.
Since then, the gender gap between the sexes has been reduced. The Equal Pay Act of
1970, for instance, made it illegal for women to be paid less than men for doing the same
work, and in 1975 the Sex Discrimination Act aimed to prevent either sex having an unfair
advantage when applying for jobs. In the same year, the Equal Opportunities Commission was
set up to help people claim their rights to equal treatment and to publish research and statistics
to show where improvements in opportunities for women need to be made. Women now have
much better employment opportunities, though they still tend to get less well-paid jobs than
men, and very few are appointed to top jobs in industry.
In the US the movement that is often called the “first wave of feminism” began in the
mid 1800s. Susan B. Anthony worked for the right to vote, Margaret Sanger wanted to provide
women with the means of contraception so that they could decide whether or not to have
children, and Elizabeth Blackwell, who had to fight for the chance to become a doctor, wanted
women to have greater opportunities to study. Many feminists were interested in other social issues.
The second wave of feminism began in the 1960s. Women like Betty Friedan and
Gloria Steinem became associated with the fight to get equal rights and opportunities for
women under the law. An important issue was the Equal Rights Amendment (ERA), which
was intended to change the Constitution. Although the ERA was not passed, there was
progress in other areas. It became illegal for employers, schools, clubs, etc. to discriminate
against women. But women still find it hard to advance beyond a certain point in their careers, 5
the so-called glass ceiling that prevents them from having high-level jobs. Many women also
face the problem of the second shift, i.e. the household chores.
In the 1980s, feminism became less popular in the US and there was less interest in
solving the remaining problems, such as the fact that most women still earn much less than
men. Although there is still discrimination, the principle that it should not exist is widely accepted.
Question 68. It can be inferred from paragraph 1 that in the 19th century, ______.
A. British women did not have the right to vote in political elections
B. most women did not wish to have equal status and equal rights
C. suffragettes fought for the equal employment and equal pay
D. British women did not complete their traditional supporting role
Question 69. The phrase “gender gap” in paragraph 2 refers to ______.
A. the social relationship between the two sexes
B. the visible space between men and women
C. the social distance between the two sexes
D. the difference in status between men and women
Question 70. Susan B. Anthony, Margaret Sanger, and Elizabeth Blackwell are mentioned as ______.
A. American women who were more successful than men
B. American women who had greater opportunities
C. pioneers in the fight for American women’s rights
D. American women with exceptional abilities
Question 71. The Equal Rights Amendment (ERA) ______.
A. supported employers, schools and clubs B. changed the US Constitution
C. was brought into force in the 1960s D. was not officially approved
Question 72. In the late 20th century, some information about feminism in Britain was issued by ______.
A. the Equal Rights Amendment B. the Equal Pay Act of 1970
C. the Equal Opportunities Commission D. the Sex Discrimination Act
Question 73. Which of the following is true according to the passage?
A. The US movement of feminism became the most popular in the late 20th century.
B. The British government passed laws to support women in the early 20th century.
C. The women’s liberation movement in the world first began in Britain.
D. The movement of feminism began in the US earlier than in Britain. 6
Question 74. The phrase “glass ceiling” in paragraph 4 mostly means ______.
A. a ceiling made of glass
B. an imaginary barrier C. a transparent frame
D. an overlooked problem
Question 75. Which of the following is NOT mentioned in the passage?
A. An American woman once had to fight for the chance to become a doctor.
B. British women now have much better employment opportunities.
C. There is now no sex discrimination in Britain and in the US.
D. Many American women still face the problem of household chores.
III. You are going to read a magazine article on space travel. Some paragraphs have
been removed from the article. Choose from the paragraphs A- G the one which fits each
gap (76- 80). There is one extra paragraph which you do not need to use. There is an example at the beginning (0). Cheap Access to Space
Charles Conrad went to the moon with Apollo 12 and circled the Earth in Skylab. But
from now on, he is going to aim high for himself. His company, Universal Space Lines, hopes
to produce a more economic rocket, that will be able to go into space again and again. 0 G
NASA, The U. S. government-owned space program plans to develop such a rocket.
However, the immediate priority is missions to Mars, which will require different technology.
So it is more likely that people outside the NASA program will develop re-usable rocket
design. Rick Tumlinson runs an independent organization called the Space Frontier Foundation
and firmly believes that it is time for businesses to get involved. 76 _______
So Tumlinson is also in business to prove a point. Space is our destiny, he says, so why
not get on with it a bit more eagerly? To this end, the SFF is holding a conference in Los
Angeles shortly to be called Space: Open for Business. 77 _______
Another company, Kistler Aerospace, has similar plans: “Our goal is to become a
delivery service to low Earth orbit that will radically re-align the economics of doing business
in space. Satellites will be our parcels; our vehicles will be operated in repeated flights with air freight efficiency.” 78 _______ 7
Their own view is that it is impossible for NASA, which is government- owned, to offer
an “open frontier”. This is not a matter of budgets or schedules, but of fundamental purpose
and design. NASA is “elitist and exclusive”, whereas the SFF believe in opportunities for
everyone: “a future of endlessly expanding new choices”. 79 _______
Of course, the ex-astronaut and businessman Charles Conrad agrees. “I’m trying to get
affordable space transportation up and operative so that everybody can go enjoy space. And by
the way, the Japanese are hard at work building a space hotel.” 80 _______
If he is right, mass space travel will have arrived by 2030 and space tourism will have
become a viable industry. More importantly, the human race will have made serious progress
in crossing that final frontier. GIVEN PARAGRAPHS A.
Companies will always be looking for profit. For this reason, the SFF is not in favour of
American missions to Mars, claiming that there’s nothing in it for investors. At the same time,
they do accept that these missions could bring scientific benefits. B.
He sees the NASA program as a bit of a dinosaur. “25 years after the Wright Brothers,
people could buy a commercial plane ticket but 25 years after landing on the moon, we sat
around watching old astronauts on TV talking about the good old days.” C.
In 1997, the SFF ran a survey on the Internet, called “a Cheap Access to Space”,
where it asked American taxpayers for their views on the U. S. space program and on what
America’s future priorities should be in space transportation. D.
U. S. government officials don’t see a future for space tourism. Here again, private
companies may well prove them wrong. David Ashford, director of Bristol Spaceplanes
Limited, once said that space tourism would begin ten years after people stopped laughing at
the concept. Recently, he added this striking comment: “people have stopped laughing.” E.
Charles Conrad is due to speak there. But his company is in fact only one of several
that already have blueprints for getting into space and back cheaply. Rotary is working on
something that would be launched like a rocket but return like a helicopter. Pioneer
Rocketplane believes there could be a million dollar market in delivering packages from one
side of the planet to the other in an hour. F.
They would like to see “irreversible human settlement” in space as soon as possible
and maintain that this will only happen through free enterprise. “Building buildings and
driving trucks is not what astronauts should be doing; that’s what the private sector does.” 8 G.
“Cheap” is an important word in space technology nowadays and re-usable rockets
will be a key way of controlling costs. They will deliver things to orbit, bring stuff back to
Earth and then go up again, perhaps with machinery for a space factory, or even carrying tourists. PART E: WRITING
