Taboos about the Body

How can a person offend people just because they cross their legs? In Thailand, it is rude for

a person to show other people the bottom of their feet This is considered unclean, and Thais can (31) _ serious offense at it Another thing people do in the West is to touch people on the head especially children It is very normal to see an old woman walk up (32) _ a young boy and mess

up his hair tenderly while saying what a handsome young man he is

In Thailand, touching a person’s head is strictly taboo because that is (33) _ part of the body, and it is where the soul is thought to (34) _ in a person Although very close family members might touch a child on the head, even this is considered rude after a child grows up

In the Middle East and some parts of Asia, the left hand is used to wash oneself after using a toilet (35) _, the left hand can never be offered to another person or used to eat with Food must always be passed with the right hand, and it is considered polite to always use the right hand for social interactions

Question 33 A the highest B the higher C most higher D more higher

Question 35 A Therefore B However C Moreover D But

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 36 to 42.

In today’s world, it seems like everyone is focused on “the big picture” However, coming up with large-scale solutions is not always what is needed Sometimes it pays to think small - and that

is exactly what many people are doing these days By thinking small, lots of big minds have created some pretty amazing things

One example of this is microloans Microloans are tiny loans, in some cases just a few dollars, which are available to people in developing countries Although this may not seem like a lot of money, microloans can help workers to escape poverty and start their own businesses The person behind the modern microloan movement is a Bangladeshi man named Muhammad Yunus He started the project in the 1970s by offering villagers low-interest loans using his own money Yunus wanted to offer poor people access to small loans so they wouldn’t be forced to turn to gangsters if

they needed funds In 1983, he founded the Grameen Bank and soon after, similar organizations

started popping up around the globe Although there are still some issues with microloans, at the very least they offer everyone the potential of becoming an entrepreneur

For most of the 20th century, companies required large sums of money and plenty of manpower to compete at the highest levels In the late 1990s, the Internet changed this and many microenterprises came about Microenterprises are smaller companies that employ less than 10 people and only require small sums of money to start Being small offers lots of flexibility to these companies as they can react more quickly than corporate giants when a business opportunity arises Many technology companies that produce mobile apps and websites fall into this category Keep in mind that having a small staff doesn’t mean small profits, as microenterprises can earn hundreds of millions of dollars per year

Thinking small can also lead to a tremendous improvement in quality One example of this is microbreweries, which are smaller-sized breweries that produce far less beer than traditional breweries Since microbreweries don’t have to target large markets and make millions of sales to stay open, they can monitor the brewing process carefully to make sure everything is perfect In addition, microbreweries can experiment with unique flavours that many traditional brewers would

shy away from So the next time you are asked to “think big”, remember that good things may also come in small packages

C Microbreweries: It has a tremendous improvement

The observation of the skies has played a special part in the lives and cultures of peoples since the earliest of times Evidence obtained from a site known as the Hole in the Rock, in Papago Park in Phoenix, Arizona, indicates that it might have been used as an observatory by prehistoric people known as the Hohokam

The physical attributes of the site allow its use as a natural calendar/clock The “hole” at

Hole in the Rock is formed by two large overhanging rocks coming together at a point, creating a shelter with an opening large enough for several persons to pass through The northeast-facing overhang has a smaller hole in its roof It is this smaller hole that produces the attributes that may have been used as a calendar/clock

Because of its location in the shelter’s roof, a beam of sunlight can pass through this second

hole and cast a spot onto the shelter’s wall and floor This spot of light travels from west to east as the sun moves across the sky It also moves from north to south and back again as the Earth travels around the Sun The west-to-east movement could have been used to establish a daily clock, much like a sundial, while the north-to-south movement could have been used to establish a seasonal calendar

The spot first appears and starts down the surface of the wall of the shelter at different times

of the morning depending on the time of the year The spot grows in size from its first appearance

until its maximum size is achieved roughly at midday It then continues its downward movement

until it reaches a point where it jumps to the floor of the shelter As the Sun continues to move to the west, the spot continues to move across the shelter floor and down the butte, or hill, toward a group

of small rocks If a person is seated on a certain one of these rocks as the spot reaches it, the Sun can

be viewed through the calendar hole This occurs at different times in the afternoon depending on the time of year
