The human eyes produces three kinds of tears Basal tears are produced all the time to keep our eyes wet and help us to see Reflex tears clean our eyes when we get dirt in them Emotional tears which (18) a lot of chemicals and hormones are produced when we’re sad or happy, or in great pain Basal and reflex tears are certainly useful, but why we produce emotional tears? Why they have a different chemistry from other tears? Why we cry? There seem (19) _ two answers to these questions First, when we feel very strong emotions (20) extreme sadness or happiness, our bodies make a lot of extra chemicals and hormones, Then, when we cry, our emotional tears take these chemicals and hormones out of our bodies This may be (21) people sometimes say they ‘feel better’ after crying One of the hormones in emotional tears is prolactin Women usually have about twice as much prolactin in their bodies as men, and this may explain why women cry more often than men The second reason for crying is to communicate with other people Babies can’t speak, so they use crying to tell people when they’re hungry, frightened, and so on As adults, we cry (22) _ often but we probably cry for the same reason: to show people that we’re in physical or emotional pain, and that we need help Question 18: A contain B include C consist D control Question 19: A to be B being C having D to have Question 20: A as B like C likely D as if Question 21: A that B why C what D when Question 22: A much B least C less D little Read the following article carefully, then choose the best answer to each question from 23 to 28 (1.2 pts) Imagine a world without numbers if you can Think about the things that would be missing from your life without them No clocks or calendars; we would have no money, no mobile phones or computer programs Without numbers we couldn’t calculations, so we wouldn’t have engineering There would be no high-rise buildings, no good roads, long bridges or modern transport Basically, our whole world is held together by numbers So, where did numbers come from? The answer is right in front of you: from your hands In ancient times fingers gave people a handy way of counting, which is why we usually count in ‘base ten’ today Eventually, systems for writing numbers were invented The Babylonians, in the area which is now Iraq, first came up with written numbers The Mayans, Egyptians and Romans also invented their own systems, which gave people the power to plan, calculate and to build In the end, the Indian system became popular and has been used since 200 BC We think of numbers as written systems, but did you know that number patterns are found in the natural world, too? In 1202 an Italian mathematician, Leonardo Fibonacci, came up with a puzzle: you are given a pair of rabbits (a doe and a buck) and they have two babies (a doe and a buck) If each pair of rabbits has two babies every month, how many pairs will there be by the end of the year? If you work out the answer for each month, you get a series which starts: 1, 1, 2, 3, 5, This series was not actually invented by Fibonacci, but his ‘rabbit problem’ helped people to understand it The ‘Fibonacci Series’ was born To work out each number in this series, you add together the last two numbers So, one plus one equals two, one plus two equals three, two plus three equals five and so on Therefore, at the end of twelve months, Fibonacci calculated there would be 144 pairs of rabbits Fibonacci also observed that these special numbers are often seen in nature The number of petals on a flower is often a Fibonacci number The seeds in a sunflower, or in a pine cone, are all arranged in spiral patterns What happens when you count the number of spirals? It’s usually a Fibonacci number Incredibly, these numbers occur all around us They can be found in the spiral of a shell or the skin of a pineapple They are used in music, art and architecture, too Some people have been inspired to call the ‘magic numbers’, but the best name seems to be ‘nature’s numbers’ Question 23: According to the article, which statement best describe the importance of numbers?
