Part 2: Choose the correct answer A, B, C, or D which best fits each gap in the following passage (10 points) Sleep study A new study shows that a lack of sleep can make vaccines less 66. _ The study was conducted on 125 participants in which researchers 67. their sleep patterns after giving them vaccine used for 68. off hepatitis B The 69. was administered according to a(n) 70. set of procedures The first and second doses were given one month apart from each other, and the final one was given after six months At that point, the participants were tested for proteins in their bodies that normally 71. to the presence of hepatitis B Surprisingly, there were 72. differences between the two groups: the participants who slept less than 6.5 hours per night on average had a significantly lower amount of these proteins than people who slept more than hours per night The group lacking in sleep were more than 11 times as likely to go down with hepatitis B Research has already proven that a lack of sleep can 73. people‟s ability to protect themselves from colds, the flu and other types of illnesses This specific study shows that a lack of sleep may affect the body‟s immune system, which naturally helps the body to 74. _ from illnesses It seems that sleep may have its own 75. _ properties 66 A valuable B successful C effective D qualified 67 A practiced B prescribed C consulted D monitored 68 A fighting B passing C picking D throwing 69 A function B property C discovery D treatment 70 A contended B awesome C physical D precise 71 A consult B respond C relieve D sprain 72 A vivid B vast C scatty D far 73 A harm B wound C injure D heal 74 A suffer B provide C recover D result 75 A medicinal B medical C medicated D medicine Part 3: Read the passage below and choose the answer (A, B, C or D) which you think fits best according to the text (10 points) Layers of social class Taken together, income, occupation, and education are good measures of people‟s social standing Using a layered model of stratification, most sociologists describe the class system in the United States as divided into several classes: upper, upper middle, middle, lower middle, and lower class The different classes are arrayed along a continuum with those with the most money, education, and prestige at the top and those with the least at the bottom Trang 4/9 In the United States, the upper class owns the major share of corporate and personal wealth; it includes those who have held wealth for generations as well as those who have recently become rich Only a very small proportion of people actually the upper class, but they control vast amounts of wealth and power in the United States Those in this class exercise control throughout society Some wealthy individuals can wield as much power as entire nations Despite social myths to the contrary, the best predictor of future wealth is the family into which you were born Each year, the business magazine Forbes publishes a list of the 400 wealthiest families and individuals in the country Of all the wealth represented on the Forbes 400 list, most is inherited, although since the 1990s, there has been some increase in the number of people on the list with selfcreated wealth Those in the upper class with newly acquired wealth are known as the nouveau riche Luxury vehicles, high-priced real estate, and exclusive vacations may mark the lifestyle of the newly rich However, although they may have vast amounts of money, they are often not accepted into “old rich” circles The upper middle class includes those with high incomes and high social prestige They tend to be welleducated professionals or business executives Their earnings can be quite high indeed-successful business executives can earn millions of dollars a year It is difficult to estimate exactly how many people fall into this group because of the difficulty of drawing lines between the upper, upper middle, and middle classes Indeed, the upper middle class is often thought of as “middle class” because their lifestyle sets the standard to which many aspire, but this lifestyle is actually unattainable by most The middle class is hard to define, in part because being “middle class” is more than just economic position A very large portion of Americans identify themselves as middle class even though they vary widely in lifestyle and in resources at their disposal But the idea that the United States is an open-class system leads many to think that the majority have a middle-class lifestyle; thus, the middle class becomes the ubiquitous norm even though many who call themselves middle class have a tenuous hold on this class position The lower middle class includes workers in the skilled trades and low income bureaucratic workers, many of whom may actually define themselves as middle class Also known as the working class, this class includes blue collar workers (those in skilled trades who manual labor) and many service workers, such as secretaries, hair stylists, food servers, police, and firefighters Medium to low income, education, and occupational prestige define the lower middle class relative to the class groups above it The term lower in this class designation refers to the relative position of the group in the stratification system, but it has a pejorative sound to many people, especially to people who are members of this class, many of whom think of themselves as middle class The lower class is composed primarily of the displaced and poor People in this class have little formal education and are often unemployed or working in minimum-wage jobs [A] People of color and women make up a disproportionate part of this class The poor include the working poor-those who work at least 27 hours a week but whose wages fall below the federal poverty level Six percent of all working people now live below the poverty line The concept of the underclass has been added to the lower class [B] The underclass includes those who are likely to be permanently unemployed and without means of economic support [C] Rejected from the economic system, those in the underclass may become dependent on public assistance or illegal activities [D] 76 Which of the sentences below best expresses the information in the highlighted statement in the passage? A Although it is not generally accepted, your family provides the best prediction of your future wealth B You can achieve great future wealth in spite of the family in which you may have been born C It is not true that your family will restrict the acquisition of your future wealth and level of social status D Social myths are contrary to the facts about the future wealth and social status of your family 77 Why does the author mention the Forbes 400 in paragraph 3? A.To explain the meaning of the listing that appears every year B To support the statement that most wealthy people inherit their money C To cast doubt on the claim that family income predicts individual wealth D To give examples of successful people who have modest family connections Trang 5/9 78 In paragraph 4, the author states that business and professional people with educational advantages are most often members of which class? A lower middle class B upper class C nouveau riche D upper middle class 79 According to paragraph 5, why most people identify themselves as middle class in the United States? A They have about the same lifestyle as everyone else in the country B They prefer not to admit that there are class distinctions in the United States C They don‟t really know how to define their status because it is unclear D They identify themselves with the majority who have normal lifestyles 80 The word “tenuous” in paragraph is closest in meaning to A servile B puerile C fragile D hostile 81 What can be inferred about the working class in the United States? A They are often not able to find entry-level jobs B They work in jobs that pay minimum wage C They are service workers and manual laborers D They are considered lower class 82 The word “pejorative” in paragraph is closest in meaning to A delusive B impulsive C vocative D offensive 83 According to paragraph 7, why has the underclass emerged? A The new term was necessary because the lower class enjoyed a higher lifestyle than it had previously B The increase in crime has supported a new class of people who live by engaging in illegal activities C Changes in the economy have caused an entire class of people to survive by welfare or crime D Minimum-wage jobs no longer support a class of people at a standard level in the economic system 84 All of the following are indicators of prestige in the United States EXCEPT A the hard work that a person does on a consistent basis B the level of education that a person has achieved C the amount of money that an individual has acquired D the type of employment that someone pursues 85 Look at the four squares that show where the following sentence could be inserted in the passage “The working poor constitute a large portion of those who are poor.” A [A] B [B] C [C] D [D] Part 4: Read the passage and the tasks that follow (20 points) The reading passage has seven paragraphs, A–G Choose the correct heading for paragraphs B–F from the list of headings below List of Headings i Using hunting to stop a worse crime ii Legal hunting has little financial benefit iii Trying to make a living iv Start by learning about the problem v Different agricultural styles lead to different outcomes vi Emotional reactions may have negative consequences vii The system is not perfect but can be beneficial viii Motivation to take care of animals ix Travelling to Africa by plane Example Paragraph A vi Paragraph G iv 86 Paragraph B _ 87 Paragraph C _ 88 Paragraph D _ 89 Paragraph E _ 90 Paragraph F _ Examining the African Hunting Debate A When a famous Zimbabwean lion was hunted and killed by a foreign tourist, people on social media were furious This resulted in an airline ban of the transportation of trophies killed by tourists and people Trang 6/9 repeatedly asking travellers to avoid countries that allow this kind of trophy hunting Trophy hunting describes legal hunting where people pay to it It is permitted in countries including Namibia, South Africa, Tanzania and Zambia While many people are disgusted by this, what they don‟t often realise is that stopping this kind of hunting might actually more harm than good B Let‟s look at Namibia for example The local Minister of Environment and Tourism, Pohamba Shifeta, said that if airlines stopped transporting wildlife trophies, this would prevent the Namibians from protecting wildlife in their country This is because the money that people pay to trophy hunt is used to stop illegal hunting, which is a much bigger problem than legal hunting This suggests that trophy hunting can have a positive impact on the protection of wildlife, in theory at least C Namibia is often described as trophy hunting‟s biggest success story It is indeed true that hunting played an important role in increasing the number of wild animals after wars in the 1970s and 1980s negatively affected herd sizes Today there are still 80 animal protection organisations in Namibia that rely completely on money from legal hunting As Namibian journalist John Grobler says, farmers look after their animals better if they sell them to hunters Namibia is currently experiencing a lack of rain which means some farmers may not have enough food for their animals If they can‟t earn money from their animals because hunting is stopped, farmers may decide to let them die If hunting is stopped altogether, farmers will let the whole herd die D In Botswana, hunting large animals is now illegal for everyone and they have not suffered from the problems that John Grobler suggests above However, there is a big difference between Botswana and Namibia – in Botswana there are no fences between people‟s land, which means animals are able to move around freely If farmers stop feeding them, they just go somewhere else to find food In Namibia there are fences so the same thing will not happen there Botswana‟s ban on hunting is not without its problems, however Large, wild animals are regularly killed when human life, food crops or farm animals are put in danger In fact, this kind of animal death is considered to be a bigger killer than controlled hunting E Interestingly, in a recent article, Botswanan villagers said they would protect local wildlife better if they could earn money from it through hunting However, this opinion goes against the results of a large study carried out by Economists at Large They concluded that in nine African countries that allow trophy hunting, the „sport‟ accounted for just 1.8 percent of total tourism revenue, while, more importantly, only percent of the money actually reached the communities where hunting occurs F So what does all of this tell us? It tells us that whatever we might think about the hunters, hunting can have a positive effect – both for wildlife and for African people – when and where it is properly and ethically managed However, too often the opposite occurs and the industry suffers from bad management and bad ethics It also tells us that trophy hunting is far more complex than both those who love it and those who hate it often realise So while the hunting industry might need some serious changes, it‟s perhaps not time to stop it completely when African wildlife organisations have no other way of making money It is interesting to look at Zambia in this regard Before hunting was stopped in 2013, 60 percent of the Zambian Wildlife Authority‟s (ZAWA) revenue came from legal hunting Today, ZAWA has very little money and has had to receive some from the Zambian government more than once G So what can we do? Apart from supporting Africa‟s national parks and wildlife areas as photographic tourists, there are no easy answers or quick solutions But if we first try to understand the issue, it is a step in the right direction And while this situation might make us angry, remember that shouting at our computer doesn‟t really help anyone Read the passage again and answer questions 91–95 Do the following statements agree with the information given in the reading passage? Write TRUE if the statement agrees with the information FALSE if the statement contradicts the information NOT GIVEN if there is no information on this 91 Money from trophy hunting is sometimes used for good causes 92 During the 1970s and 1980s animals weren‟t protected in Namibia 93 In Namibia animals are able to move around in the same way as they are in Botswana 94 Local communities only receive a small amount of the money from trophy hunting 95 The Zambian Wildlife Authority (ZAWA) still receives some money from legal hunting Trang 7/9 Part 5: You are going to read an article about the rise and fall in popularity of newspapers, identify in which section A–D each of the following is mentioned Write ONE letter A–D in the corresponding numbered space provided Each letter may be used more than once (10 points) In which section does the author 96. say that ease of access to news changes the level of trust people have in its accuracy? 97. claim that many people would have found living without a newspaper difficult? 98. explain why readers may not want to have access to longer news articles? 99. suggest that the transformation of the newspaper industry is not necessarily a bad thing? 100. _suggest that the internet was not responsible for the initial decline in newspaper sales? 101. _suggest that media tycoons wield too much power? 102. _mention the influence that systems of government have on methods of accessing the news? 103. _explain how newspapers have adapted in order to survive? 104. _describe how individuals' lifestyles have altered the way they consume news media? 105. _say that the success of newspapers benefitted another industry? The rise and fall of the newspaper A Until relatively recently, newspapers were our primary source of daily news They must now compete, however, with online news, social media and television in a progressively digital age The internet is changing the way people get their news, leaving a dwindling audience willing to pay for their daily paper But given that the form first emerged in early-17th century Europe, it's probably about time the medium got overhauled Newspapers have witnessed an extraordinary era of change: from the evolution of democratic institutions and political parties to the reshaping of whole countries and continents The first daily newspaper, The Courant, credited the reader with enough intelligence to make up their own minds, printing factual details rather than spinning stories according to any particular opinion Perhaps current sources could learn something from this approach However, media magnates soon discovered that if these reports appeared alongside more sensationalist pieces focussing on scandal and gossip, they would attract more interest A greater readership led to higher revenues from advertising, an industry that grew rapidly alongside the newspaper B By the end of the 19th century, newspapers were using a visual template not unlike those of today, and had become the source of not only large profits but also unaccountable political and social influence for their owners - a trend that has continued to the present day Newspapers prospered in this form for more than 150 years, and in many countries, daily life would have been inconceivable without access to one But in many places, the continuing existence of newspapers is under threat The internet has undoubtedly had a profound impact on the industry The number of sources of available news has mushroomed, which potentially thins out the readership of any one title Advertisers who once relied on newspapers to reach consumers now prefer to invest on the internet While printed newspapers increasingly struggle to get by financially, many have turned to the primary cause of their decline in order to attract new revenue: by launching online versions By doing so, perhaps even newspapers that have been around for hundreds of years will get through this tough time C Circulation figures for all types of newspapers, local, regional and national, bear out the fact that, in many Western nations at least, sales of printed newspapers had been falling for many years prior to the emergence of the internet What is also beyond question, though, is that the arrival and exponential growth of the World Wide Web, leading to a near-universal coverage, has accelerated this process greatly Observing the rapidity and extent of this process around the world provides fascinating insight into social change In countries where it's more expedient for people to access news via the internet, this increased convenience seems to also encourage the perception that these online sources are somehow more reliable than printed media In other parts of the world, however, where there are technological constraints on accessing online sources, or reporting of news is restricted, usually for political reasons, hard copy newspaper readership is increasing and the printed news industry is flourishing Globally, therefore, newspapers have clearly not yet been consigned to history D Yet we live in an age where speed and convenience have gained precedence over reliability and quality in most aspects of our existence Regarding the former, newspapers only allow readers to get updated about events some considerable time after they have actually happened, while online users can access them more or less at the moment at which they occur Printed newspapers, therefore provide a less efficient source of news and, furthermore, so in a less environmentally-friendly way than the internet, Trang 8/9 and at a direct cost to the consumer Moreover, with news also available on tap through social media, consumers are continually bombarded from all sides, and therefore may not wish to have each story explained in great detail, as is the case in much of the printed media Social media sites have also proven to be one of the most effective means of getting information out rapidly, and on a huge scale news can now be tweeted before the mainstream media have even started their coverage IV WRITING (60 POINTS) Part 1: Read the following extract and use your own words to summarize it Your summary should be about 100-120 words long (15 points) Multitasking takes a serious toll on productivity Our brains lack the ability to perform multiple tasks at the same time-in moments where we think we‟re multitasking, we‟re likely just switching quickly from task to task Focusing on a single task is a much more effective approach for several reasons Multitaskers may feel more distracted than people who focus on one task at a time This makes sense when you consider that, by habit, multitaskers constantly refocus on a new task, effectively distracting themselves from their original assignment Some research suggests that multitaskers are more distractible, and they may have trouble focusing their attention even when they‟re not working on multiple tasks at once Other research shows that while there may be a connection between multitasking and distraction, that link is smaller than originally thought and varies quite a bit from person to person While it may seem contrary to popular belief, we tend to work slower and less efficiently when we multitask Multitasking leads to what psychologists call “task switch costs,” or the negative effects that come from switching from task to task We encounter task switch costs (like a slower working pace) because of the increased mental demand that's associated with jumping from one thing to another Changing our focus also keeps us from relying on automatic behaviors to finish tasks quickly When we're focused on a single task that we've done before, we can work on “autopilot,” which frees up mental resources Switching back and forth bypasses this process, and we tend to work more slowly as a result Part 2:
