English was first written down when Christian monks came to England in Anglo-Saxon (51) They used the 23 letters of Latin to write down the sounds of Anglo-Saxon speech as they heard it However, English has a (52) range of basic sounds (over 40) than Latin The alphabet was too small, and so combinations of letters were needed to (53) the different sounds Inevitably, there were inconsistencies in the way that letters were combined With the Norman invasion of England, the English language was put (54) risk English survived, but the spelling of many English words changed to follow French patterns, and many French words were (55) into the language The result was more irregularity When the printing press was (56) in the fifteenth century, many early printers of English texts spoke other first languages They (57) little effort to respect English spelling Although one of the short-term effects of printing was to produce a number of variant spellings, in the long term it created fixed spellings People became used to seeing words spelt in the same way Rules were (58) and dictionaries were put together which printers and writers could refer to However, spoken English was not fixed and continued to change slowly - just as it still does now Letters that were sounded in the AngloSaxon period, like the 'k' in 'knife', now became (59) Also, the pronunciation of vowels then had (60) _ in common with how they sound now, but the way they are spelt hasn't changed Question 46: Question 47: Question 48: Question 49: Question 50: Question 51: Question 52: Question 53: Question 54: Question 55: A ages A deeper A explain A at A announced A discovered A brought A drawn up A dump A much B centuries B longer B express B in B found B invented B did B filled in B quiet B many C times C thicker C perform C on C introduced C made up C made C got across C silent C few D years D wider D tell D under D started D taken up D put D handed out D speechless D little Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, or D to indicate the answer to each of the question (7 points) Since the world became industrialized, the number of animal species that have either become extinct or have neared extinction has increased Bengal tigers, for instance, which once roamed the jungles in vast numbers, now number only about 2,300 By the year 2025, it is estimated that they will become extinct What is alarming about the case of the Bengal tiger is that this extinction will have been caused almost entirely by poachers who, according to some sources, are not always interested in material gain but in personal gratification This is an example of the callousness that is contributing to the problem of extinction Animals, such as Bengal tiger, as well as other endangered species, are valuable parts of the world’s ecosystem International laws protecting these animals must be enacted to ensure their survival and the survival of our planet Countries around the world have begun to deal with the problem in various ways Some countries, in an effort to circumvent the problem, have allocated large amounts of land to animal reserves They then charge admission prices to help defray the costs of maintaining the parks, and they often must also depend on world organizations for support This money enables them to invest in equipment and patrols to protect the animals Another response to the increase in animal extinction is an international boycott of products made from endangered species This has had some effect, but by itself it will not prevent animals from being hunted and killed Question 56: What is the main topic of the passage?

A buying and selling of animal products overseas B a refusal to buy animal products worldwide C a global increase in animal survival D defraying the cost of maintaining national parks Question 62: Which of the following best describes the author’s attitude? A forgiving B concerned C vindictive D surprised 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 (8 points) According to the controversial sunspot theory, great storms on the surface of the sun hurl streams of solar particles into the atmosphere, causing a shift in the weather on earth A typical sunspot consists of a dark center umbra surrounded by a lighter penumbra of light and dark threads extending out from the center like a spoke a wheel Actually the sunspots are cooler than the rest of the photosphere, which may account for their color Typically, the temperature in a sunspot umbra is about 4000 K Sunspots range in size from tiny granules to complex structures with areas stretching for billions of square miles About 5% of the pots are large enough so that they can be seen without instruments: consequently, observations of sunspots have been recorded for several thousand years Sunspots have been observed in arrangements of one to more than one hundred spots, but they tend to occur in pairs There is also a marked tendency for the two spots of a pair to have opposite magnetic field associated with any given sunspots is closely related to the spot’s size Although there is no theory that completely explains the nature and function of sunspots, several models attempt to relate the phenomenon to magnetic fields along the lines of longitude from the north and south poles of the sun Question 63: What is the author’s main purpose in the passage?
