With the advent of the computer age, it was rashly predicted by computer manufacturers that technology would help to save

trees and create a paperless office Unfortunately, far from cutting down on the amount of paper used, we now use 10% morepaper than we did before, a lot of which is used for printing out web pages and e-mails

Despite all this, computer companies are still insisting that conventional books will soon disappear, to be replaced by thehandheld e-book For one particular version of the e-book available at the moment, you hold your laptop like a book and readthe book that you have bought and downloaded over the Internet It is very doubtful, however, whether this means that theordinary reader is going to give up using books made of paper that easily Trying to read an e-book in bright sunshine on a

beach, with the sun reflecting off the screen and when its batteries may be running down is hardly a recipe for a relaxed and

carefree vacation Basically, there is nothing so easy to use as the common-or-garden paperback novel - and it will take a lot

to replace it!

There may still be something to be said for e-books when it comes to weighty academic volumes that students need to refer

to for their studies Instead of having to carry them around or physically go to a library to read them, they would be able todownload the sections they needed and use them on-screen or print them out

Changes will probably take place anyway in conventional publishing, with the incorporation of digital printing techniques

It may soon be possible to have a particular book printed on demand over the Net, using digital copies of the work provided

by the publisher Perhaps in this way we will eventually be able to reduce our consumption of paper

Question 21: In what way does the author suggest that the amount of paper we use might be reduced?

A by selling books over the Internet B by creating a paperless office

C by involving publishers in the printing of books D by only having a book printed when someone requests it

Question 22: The word “rashly” is closest in meaning to

Question 23: What argument did the computer makers use to support the widespread use of computers?

A Offices would find their work cut by 10%.

B Trees would no longer have to be cut down to make paper.

C Their use would have significant ecological value.

D Conventional books would gradually die out.

Question 24: What disadvantage of the e-book does the author point out?

A It has to have a power supply B It is not relaxed

C It's rather heavy to hold D It can't be taken onto the beach.

Question 25: According to the passage, e-books

A will be used more for leisure reading B are unlikely to be used by anyone.

C are not at all a good idea D may be useful when reading for reference.

Question 26: In the passage, the author says that

A laptops are a convenient way to read a novel.

B conventional books will soon become a thing of the past.

C the general reader is reluctant to give up using conventional books.

D readers will easily get used to e-books.

Question 27: The pronoun “it” refers to

Mark the letter A, B, C, or D on your answer sheet to indicate the word whose underlined part differs from the other three in pronunciation in each of the following questions.

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 from 30 to 36.
