You are going to read a magazine article about competition Six sentences have been removed from the article Choose from the sentences A-G the one which fits each blank There is one extra sentence which you do not need to use There is an example at the beginning (0) Write your answers in the corresponding numbered boxes provided

WHEN SHOULD WE START COMPETING?

Alfie Kohn, an American lecturer, wrote “Competition is to self-esteem what sugar is to teeth.” How right was his assessment of the competitive world we inhabit today? Is competition, as many believe, a vital element of life and therefore something to be prepared for from as early an age as possible? [0. §G_,_ _]| It is certainly a debate that is engaging everyone from educators and government, to parents and children themselves

On the one hand, there are those who maintain that competition comes into every aspect of our lives [1 | For proponents of this idea, it is essential for children to be exposed to the trials and tribulations, and occasional joys, of competing in all areas of school life

2 | In answer to critics who suggest that weaker performers may feel inferior, it is

argued that rewards can be given ‘as encouragement in less demanding categories such as punctuality Critics would reply that children know when they’re being patronised

The subject of competitive sports in schools is also hotly debated [3 ] They say “someone has to come last’ But do they? Is it really a good thing for that child’s development to be seen to fail time after time? [4 ° | But then we find ourselves considering another thorny issue — that of the pushy parent who hopes to achieve his or her lifelong ambition through

the child :

[5 |] The children can play, but no league tables can be compiled, and there are no trophies or medals given out The aim of this move was to protect children from ambitious parents and aggressive coaches on the sidelines, from bullying and from peer pressure

There is no doubt that we live in a very competitive world and children must at some time

learn to be able to make their way through it However, perhaps school-is.a-time for learning to

co-operate rather than to compete That will all come later LUYEN THI ONLINE (Zoom,

me | OTTO CH ANNEL

We all know the misery of the child who always comes last at sports‘day & HS: caer There will always be winners and losers and we haye to be prepared for the fight * Some parents approve unconditionally of this

Recently, competitive football for children under eight years old was banned

At least with after-school sports children are given the choice of whether they wish to

compete or not

The rewards system in schools that gives stars and merfits for good performance is a part of this,and claims to spur children on to great achievements

G Or is encouraging youngsters to compete simply setting many up to fail, and creating a situation where a loss of confidence is inevitable, with all the consequences that this brings?

Titanic went down with 1,503 lives, about 1,000 icebergs made it past the Grand Banks A newborn iceberg, unlike most newborn things, is bigger to begin with and slowly grows smaller When it first breaks free from the mother glacier an Arctic baby may weigh up to 3 million tons and as big as a block in New York City But it takes two or three years of travel before it reaches the Banks By that time most icebergs are less than 100 feet in

height Sometimes, however, a grant one, towering 400 feet above the sea is spotted

The sight of these "blocks" is frightening enough, but the real danger lies in the fact

that 85 percent of the bulk lies hidden under the water, ready to cut the hull of any ship that comes too close

Icebergs usually die after they pass the Grand Banks and meet the warm waters of

the Gulf Stream Yet, a melted-down iceberg was seen about 200 miles south of Bermuda

Trang 14

It was only 15 by 30 feet in size But remember almost nine times that size was hiding under the water It was still big enough to sink a ship

Time, sun and the Gulf Stream slowly change the icebergs to water, but, while they live, they are a hazard to the strongést ship and a terror to the bravest captain

A ships sunk by icebergs B how icebergs are spotted

The first-time | saw Wiwin, she looked like a wizened old woman with wrinkly skin, but

she was in fact a baby elephant She had been left behind when her family group was chased back into the forest after being caught raiding a rice field in Southern Sumatra, Indonesia She had been rescued by the local people, who quickly realized that they lacked the means to care for her So she was brought to the local office of the Wildlife Conservation Society Wiwin was desperate for affection (1) _D Because her

growing teeth were sore, she had also taken to chewing on anything and everything

Everyone at the Conservation office was impressed by her spirit; she was clearly a survivor, but having her there presented a number of problems (2) So the staff desperately

contacted anyone who could give advice and began constructing feeding equipment from a

length of tubing attached to a plastic bottle Once they discovered the formula of a blend of

cow's milk, coconut water and milk powder, Wiwin started to take in liquids

There could be no question of releasing her back into the wild The only option was for her to go to an elephant training center (ETC), which cared for orphaned elephants The nearest ETC was 1,500 km away, but transporting Wiwin over that distance would be extremely difficult, especially as she was so weak (3) We set off in convoy Wiwin was in a jeep on a cushion of coconut palms, with the wildlife center staff; followed with a photographer

The first twenty-four hours went well Wiwin determined our schedule: if she was tired, we stopped, and if she was hungry, we opened a coconut and fed her Mostly, we travelled in the cool of the night, driving through sleeping villages and setting up camp at daybreak,

putting up a tent to give Wiwin shade

We continued on our way in the late afternoon and drove straight into a torrential

rainstorm Trees were blown down, even blocking the road in places (4) We

stopped for breakfast at a roadside cafe, where one local peered in and touched her nervously as if expecting an electric shock

After three days we arrived at the Sebanga ETC, to be met by the resident vet, Joanne Hammett She agreed that we should try to see if the elephant with the newborn calf might

let Wiwin into their group to feed (5) However, she did soon settle into life at Sebanga, interacting well with the other elephants

So, after a week we left Wiwin at the center Regular updates from Joanne kept us

informed of Wiwin's improving condition It could be questioned whether we were justified in

putting all this effort into keeping just one animal alive - in order for it to live a limited life in Captivity (6) She was a symbol of hope for a group of weary conservationists who

are very aware that it takes an enormous amount of time and stamina to make a difference

Saving an elephant

Douglas Turner tells the story of a baby elephant who was take:

on a 1,500 km journey in order to save her life

A Despite all this, Wiwin managed to sleep contentedly

B However, as we were told they had an elephant with a newborn calf, which might provide a suitable foster mother for Wiwin, it seemed too good an opportunity to miss

C But Wiwin was more than just an orphan elephant

D Even when she was sleepy, she would wrap her trunk around the’ nearest person,

pleading for company :

E After weighing her, our fears were confirmed

F Introductions were made the next day, but Wiwin could not be separated from her bottle,

so unfortunately we had to give up the fostering idea

G The most immediate of these was her unwillingness to drink anything in the sweltering heat

Part 3: You are going to read a newspaper article about the problems caused by acid

rain Six sentences have been removed from the article Choose from the

sentences A-G the one which fits each gap (0-5) Number (0) has been done for you There is one extra sentence which you do not need to use (5 points)

RUINING THE RUINS

Acid rain is now a familiar problem in the industrialized countries in Europe Gases like

sulphur dioxide and nitrogen oxide are produced by power stations and cars (0)_ E_ _ Acid rain is also capable of dissolving some rocks, and buildings made of soft rock, such as limestone, are particularly badly affected The acid rain attacks the rocks, and so carvings and statues are eroded more quickly

(1) According to a report in the New Scientist, acid rain is being blamed for

the rapid decay of ancient ruins in Mexico The old limestone buildings in places like

Chichen Itza and Palenque are wearing away very quickly indeed These sites are the remains of the buildings built by the Mayas between 250 BC and AD 900, and the

spectacular ruins of Mayan civilization are visited by thousands of tourists every year But those ruins are in danger of being seriously damaged by pollution At many sites the stone has been covered with a layer of black substance like tar (2)

Scientists estimate that about one millimeter of stone is worn away every twelve years (3) The acid rain is said to be caused by pollution from oil wells in the Gulf of

Mexico Car exhaust gases are also a problem Local volcanic eruptions make the problem even worse Nevertheless, with enough money and effort, researchers say that many of

the problems could be solved and the rate of erosion reduced (4)

Mexico’s current lack of funds is also partly due to oil The country has rich oil fields and a

few years ago, when oil was expensive, Mexico was selling large quantities of oil to the

USA and earning a lot of money (5): However, the price of oil then dropped, and Mexico has been left owing enormous sums of money and with not enough income from oil sales to pay back the loans So unless the price of oil rises, it is unlikely that

Mexico will be able to afford to clean up the pollution and save its Mayan ruins from

destruction

A At others the painted surfaces inside temples are lifting and flaking off and the stone is being eaten away

B That is enough to have caused some of the ancient carvings to become seriously

damaged already

C These measures would reduce the pollution, but would not stop it completely

D The government was therefore able to borrow huge sums of money from banks around

the world, thinking they would have no problem repaying their debts

E They dissolve in rainwater and this makes acid rain, which damages trees, river and streams

F The problem, however, is not just a European one

G However, the Mexican government does not have enough money to do-the work, and needs to spend what money it has on the Mexican people
