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 42 A Western-style conversation between two people is like a game of tennis If I introduce a topic, a conversational ball, I expect you to hit it back If you agree with me, I expect you to add somethinga reason for agreeing, another example, or an elaboration to carry the idea further But I don't expect you always to agree I am just as happy if you question me, or challenge me, or completely disagree with me Whether you agree or disagree, your response will return the ball to me And then it is my turn again I don't serve a new ball from my original starting line I hit your ball back again from where it has bounced I carry your idea further, or answer your questions or objections, or challenge or question you And so the ball goes back and forth A Japanese-style conversation, however, is not at all like tennis or volleyball It is like bowling You wait for your turn And you always know your place in line It depends on such things as whether you are older or younger, in a senior or junior position, and so on When your turn comes, you step up to the starting line with your bowling ball and carefully bowl it Everyone else stands back and watches politely, murmuring encouragement Everyone waits until the ball has reached the end of the alley and watches to see how many pins have been knocked down Then, after everyone is sure that you have completely finished your turn, the next person in line steps up to the same starting line, with a different ball He doesn't return your ball, and he does not begin from where your ball stopped It is quite true that even though you have been trained all your life to play one game, it is no simple matter to switch to another, even if you know the rules Knowing the rules is not at all the same thing as playing the game (by Nancy Masterson- from Polite Fictions- Why Japanese and Americans Seem Rude to Each Other) Question 36: Which of the following sentences best summarizes the main idea of the passage? A It’s unlikely to have a conversation with someone from another country B Japanese conversations are different from Western ones C It’s important to take part in a conversation in Western countries D It’s considered rude to interrupt someone who is speaking Question 37: The author makes all of the following arguments EXCEPT A In Japanese-style conversations, you must wait your turn to speak B A Western-style conversation goes on in a similar way to a tennis or volleyball game C A Japanese-style conversation advances in the same way as a bowling game D Western-style conversations are longer than Japanese-style ones Question 38: What does the word “elaboration” in paragraph most likely means A disagreement B explanation C encouragement D collaboration Question 39: The word “It” in paragraph refers to A Tennis B Japanese-style conversationC volleyball D turn Question 40: In paragraph 2, the word “alley” most likely means _ in bowling A something you wear B the place where players sit C the place where you roll the ball D the place where you write your score Question 41: During conversation, Western speakers NOT expect their listeners to _ A take their own turns B give reasons for their agreement C listen to them silently D completely disagree with them Question 42: What can we infer from the passage? A Japanese students are more likely to stop their teachers to ask questions during lessons B If you know Japanese conversation etiquettes, you can easily talk to Japanese people C Japanese people would be surprised if someone interrupted them while they are speaking D Japanese people prefer playing bowling to tennis or volleyball during a conversation 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 43 to 50 As history shows, the past was not wonderful It was not really bad for a privileged minority, though even they had to without modern medicine, and childbirth was fraught with dangers for women But for the vast majority of the population, life was hard and short Nowadays, it cannot be denied that scientific knowledge and technology have been changing our world in the right directions Then, this means that the public needs to have a basic understanding of science, so as to make informed decisions and not leave them in the hands of experts At the moment, the public has a rather ambivalent attitude toward science It has come to expect the steady increase in the standard of living that new developments in science and technology have brought to continue, but it also distrusts science because it doesn't understand it This skepticism is evident in the cartoon figure of the mad scientist working in his laboratory to produce a Frankenstein But the public also has a great interest in science, as is shown by the large audiences for science fiction What can be done to harness this interest and give the public the scientific background it needs to make well-grounded decisions on subjects like acid rain, the greenhouse effect, nuclear weapons, and genetic engineering? Clearly, the basis must lie in what is taught in schools But in schools science is often presented in a dry and uninteresting manner Children must learn it by rote to pass examinations, and they don't see its relevance to the world around them Moreover, science is often taught in terms of equations because scientists and engineers tend to express the precise value of quantities But for the rest of us, a qualitative grasp of scientific concepts is sufficient, and this can be conveyed by words and diagrams The science people learn in schools can provide the basic framework But the rate of scientific progress is now so rapid that there are always new developments that have occurred since one was at school or university Besides books and Internet, there are some very good science programs on TV, but others present scientific wonders simply as magic, without explaining them or showing how they fit into the framework of scientific ideas Producers of television science programs should realize that they have a responsibility to educate the public, not just entertain it What are the science-related issues that the public will have to make decisions on in the near future? Among the imminent dangers, nuclear weapons are still poised to strike the major cities There's a sick joker that the reason we have not been contacted by an alien civilization is that civilizations tend to destroy themselves when they reach our stage But I have sufficient faith in the good sense of the public to believe that we might prove this wrong (by Stephen Hawking from Black Holes and Baby Universes and Other Essays) Question 43: The main idea of this reading is A The media can inform people about the most recent developments in technology B The science people learn in school can provide a basic framework for scientific understanding C Many people don’t take science in faith because science is beyond their comprehension D The public should be educated about science more properly so they can make good decisions Question 44: History shows that in the past, A life was more strenuous for the majority of people than today B it was not risky for honored women to give birth with modern medicine C life was not so inconvenient for ordinary people as today D life was more prosperous for most privileged people than today Question 45: The word “them” in paragraph refers to A informed decisions B scientific knowledge and technology C hands of experts D public needs Question 46: According to paragraph 2, the public A has mixed feelings toward benefits of science B feels science completely beneficial to life C usually refuses to see science fiction filmsD believes scientists working in the laboratories are mad Question 47: The phrase qualitative grasp of in paragraph is closest in meaning to A increasing interest in B explicit understanding of C general understanding of D firm hold of Question 48: According to paragraph 4, science programs on TV should A show science wonders as a kind of magic to attract people’s attention B not only entertain the public but also educate them about basic science C present a lot of basic frameworks to arouse people’s interest in science D show more science fiction films to satisfy ordinary people’s need Question 49: The phrase “poised to strike” in paragraph is closest in meaning to A prohibited by B used to destroy C ready to attack D allowed by Question 50: What can be inferred from the passage? A More attention should be paid to sources outside the school to provide ordinary people with basic scientific knowledge B Educators should make school scientific programs more precise and helpful for students who want to become scientists C The authority should impose stricter censorship on science programs on TV to make them less entertaining and more educational D Students are not interested in learning science at school because they not want to become insane like scientists in comics THE END ... public to believe that we might prove this wrong (by Stephen Hawking from Black Holes and Baby Universes and Other Essays) Question 43: The main idea of this reading is A The media can inform... conversational ball, I expect you to hit it back If you agree with me, I expect you to add somethinga reason for agreeing, another example, or an elaboration to carry the idea further But I don't... is like bowling You wait for your turn And you always know your place in line It depends on such things as whether you are older or younger, in a senior or junior position, and so on When your
