newspaper of his own Right from the first edition, the newspaper took a controversial approach to news Pulitzer wanted to appeal to the average reader, so he produced exciting stories of scandal and intrigue Such an approach is commonplace today, but in Pulitzer's time it was new and different The approach led to the discovery of many instances of corruption by influential people Pulitzer paper became very famous and is still produced today The success of Joseph Pulitzer's newspaper made him a very wealthy man, so he wanted to give something back to his profession Throughout his later years,

writers to remember the importance of quality On his death, he gave two million dollars to Columbia University so they could award prizes to great writers The Pulitzer Prize recipients are a very

D nursed Sunday by the Global Carbon Project Scientists said the increase was almost certainly the largest absolute jump in any year since the Industrial Revolution The increase solidified a trend of everrising emissions that will make it difficult, if not impossible, to stop severe climate change in coming decades The burning of coal represented more than half of the growth in emissions, the analysis found In the United States, emissions dropped by a remarkable percent in the year of 2009, but rose by over percent in 2010, the new analysis shows "Each year, emissions go up, and there's another year of negotiations, another year of indecision," said Glen P Peters, a researcher at the Centre for International Climate and Environmental Research "There's no evidence that this path we've been following in the last 10 years Is going to change." Scientists say the rapid growth of emissions is warming the Earth and putting human welfare at long-term risk But their increasingly urgent pleas that society find a way to limit emissions have met sharp political resistance In many countries because doing so would involve higher energy costs The new figures show a continuation of a trend in which developing countries have surpassed the wealthy countries in their overall greenhouse emissions In 2010, the burning of fossil fuels and the production of cement sent more than nine billion tons of carbon into the atmosphere, the new analysis found, with 57 percent of that coming from developing countries On the surface, the figures of recent years suggest that wealthy countries have made headway in stabilizing their emissions But Dr Peters pointed out that, in a sense, the rich countries have simply exported some of them The fast rise in developing countries has been caused to a large extent by the growth of energy-intensive manufacturing industries that make goods that rich countries import "All that has changed Iis the location in which the emissions are being produced," Dr Peters said Many countries, as part of their response to the economic crisis, invested billions in programs designed to make their energy systems greener While it is possible, the new numbers suggest they have had little effect so far (Source: www.nytimes.com) Question 37:According to the passage, the report found that the burning coal accounts for of the increase in total emissions A more than half B over percent C only about percent D one-third Question 38:Which of the following is TRUE according to the text? A Developing countries will produce less emissions with economic development B Emissions in the United States dropped by about percent in 2010 C There is a long way to go for many countries to limit the fast growth of emissions D Over 50 percent of the growth iemissions resulted from the burning of fossil fuels Question 39:What is the main idea of this passage? A the possible climate change in future decades B an analysis released by the Global Carbon Project C the record jump in carbon dioxide emissions D the main harm of greenhouse gases Question 40:The word "urgent" in thepassage is closest in meaning to A related B unsolved C pressing D needful Question 41:According to Glen P Peters, we can learn that A rich countries actually take more responsibility for the growth of emissions B some countries negotiate together yearly whether to reduce the amounts of emissions C the rapid growth of emissions contributes to potential risks for humans D human beings will follow the same path of negotiations In the next 10 years Question 42:The phrase "On the surface" in theseventh paragraph means most nearly the same as A To all intents and purposes B Judging from what can be seen C Just the tip of the iceberg D Not thought about deeply or thoroughly Question 43:Many governments in the world resist limiting emissionsbecause A It Is not the best way to solve such problems B they are unwilling to accept higher energy costs C they don't realize the risks of carbon emissions D it would probably harm human welfare in the long run Mark the letter A, B, C, or D on your answer sheet to indicate the most suitable response to complete each of the following exchanges Question 44:~ Kay: "How kind, you really shouldn't have bothered." ~ Frank: " " A Don't worry, I didn't bother B It was nothing, really C Why not?

world without gas or electricity Both are commonly used for lighting and heating today We now can instantly flick a lighter or strike a match to make a flame But it was not long ago that there were no such things as matches or lighters To make fire, it was necessary to strike a piece of iron on flint for sparks to ignite some tinder If the tinder was damp, or the flint old, you had to borrow some fire from a neighbour We not know exactly when or how people first used fire Perhaps, many ages ago, they found that sticks would burn if they were dropped into some hole where melted lava from a volcano lay boiling They brought the lighted sticks back to make their fire in a cave Or, they may have seen trees catch fire through being struck by lightning, and used the trees to start their own fires Gradually people learned they could start a fire without travelling far to find flames They rubbed two pieces of wood together This method was used for thousands of years When people became used to making fires with which to cook food and stay warm at night, they found that certain resins or gums from trees burnt longer and brighter They melted resins and dipped branches in the liquid to make torches that lit their homes at night Iron stands in which torches used to be fixed can still be seen in old buildings of Europe There was no lighting in city streets until gas lamps, and then electric lamps were installed Boys ran about London at night carrying torches of burning material They were called torch boys, or link boys, and earned a living by guiding visitors to friends’ houses at night For centuries homes were lit by candles until oil was found Even then, oil lamps were no more effective than a cluster of candles We read about the splendours and marvels of ancient palaces

Today, we frequently read newspaper stories of unqualified people who are convicted of posing as surgeons, dentists, airline pilots or financial experts These people are sometimes portrayed as amiable crooks, but in reality, they are not amiable; they are fraudsters who prey on people's good nature Fraudsters can more than just trick you or steal your cash; they can steal your identity, too Some years ago, Derek Bond, a seventy two-year-old retired civil servant, found out for himself how dreadful modern fraud can be As he stepped off a plane at Cape Town airport, he was arrested and put in prison It was worrying enough that he could have been mistaken for a 'most wanted' criminal, but what made matters worse was that, despite having an impeccable reputation in his hometown, it took three weeks for Mr Bond's family to convince the authorities that they had made a mistake Away from people who knew him, Mr Bond's reputation was based solely on the contents of a police file If that file said that Mr Derek Bond, a man of medium height and build, was actually Derek Lloyd Sykes, a conman responsible for a multi-million dollar fraud in Texas, then who could prove that it wasn't true? Mr Bond was the victim of identity theft, where a thief assumes another person's identity and uses it to steal directly from that person or to commit crimes using that person's name In the world of organized crime, for those involved illegal immigration or benefit fraud, as in drugtrafficking, money laundering fake ID is a license to print money Even more worrying is the fact that there is now a ready market for stolen identities among the world's terrorists More and more people are shopping and banking online or by phone these days, so the opportunities for the fraudulent use of credit cards or other personal information are increasing rapidly In fact, it is true to say that identity theft is booming, and for those affected by it, the consequences are often catastrophic Under existing financial regulations, banks and credit organizations are required to 'know their customers' before they are allowed to open an account This means that they have to request specific proofs of identity before they allow them to start spending] usually proof of name and address and a photo ID such as a passport or a driver's license This sounds satisfactory, but in reality it is far from foolproof The problem is that stealing someone's identity is not rocket science In theory, all an unscrupulous thief needs to start using a person's name is a few snippets of information, such as a discarded phone bill or a credit card receipt It has been claimed that 'bin diving' is a common way for thieves to get information In an extensive survey, a credit checking agency examined the contents of 400 rubbish bins They found that one in five of these contained enough sensitive information to commit identity fraud Every time people buy or sell goods, individuals are providing information about themselves on paper Receipts, invoices and bills all contain personal information that is useful to a fraudster But identity thieves don't even need to get their hands dirty How often people hand over their credit or debit cards in shops? How many people buy something over the phone or shop online? All it takes is one dishonest employee and people can say goodbye to their hard-earned cash Today, sophisticated criminals also use computer software packages to hack into the systems of banks and other organizations to steal lists of their customers' identities, lists which can sometimes run to millions of individuals [Sourse: First Masterclass 2015 Student’s Book] Question38:People should be particularly careful about using credit or debit cards because _ A corrupt staff may pass on their details to criminals B criminals may find a way of stealing them C online systems may not be secure D criminals may listen to people giving their details on the phone Question39:Criminals commonly collect information about individuals by _ A reading their telephone bills B stealing their credit cards C going through things people have thrown away D contacting a credit checking agency Question40:Describing something as 'not rocket science' in the passage means that it is _ A very difficult B incomprehensible C straightforward D complicated Question41: In Cape Town, it was difficult fo r Derek Bond to establish his innocence because _ A his correct details were in a police file B nobody knew him personally there C there was proof that he was a criminal D he had a bad reputation there Question42:The main purpose of this article is to _ A tell the story of Derek Bond B describe the dangers of identity theft C advise readers how to avoid having their identity stolen D explain howto steal someone's identity Question43:The writer says that real-life fraudsters _ A are criminals who cheat other people B live a glamorous lifestyle C are not as bad as they seem D are not qualified to ordinary jobs Mark the letter A, B, C, or Don your answer sheet to indicate the most suitable response to complete each of the following exchanges Question44: ~ Andy: “Anyway, as I bent down to pick it up, my trousers split!" ~ Bob: “ " A You must have been mortified B How dare you!
