Last year thieves broke into a Scottish stately home and stole only one thing: a rhino horn trophy, which at 1.5 meters was the longest in the world Meanwhile, in China, pharmaceutical factories have been building up (31) _ of antiques made from rhino horn, for the sole purpose of smashing them to powder to make the (32) _ ingredient of many of their medicines And in Zimbabwe, 34 poachers died in 1990 in the search for the black rhino

Recently, conservationists met to (33) _a campaign to persuade countries where rhino horn is still part of the traditional medicine to switch to substitutes The biggest threat to the survival of the rhinoceros is the refusal of certain countries to enforce a ban on domestic trading in rhino horn

The rhino horn is included in many doses for disorders raging from fevers to nosebleeds Horn, like fingernails, is made of keratin and has no proven medicinal (34) _ Traditional substitutes, such as horn from buffalo or antelope, are regarded as second best

Beads were probably the first durable ornaments humans possessed, and the intimate relationship they had with their owners is reflected in the fact that beads are among the most common items found in ancient archaeological sites In the past, as today, men, women, and

children adorned themselves with beads In some cultures still, certain beads are often worn

from birth until death, and then are buried with their owners for the afterlife Abrasion due to daily wear alters the surface features of beads, and if they are buried for long, the effects of corrosion can further change their appearance Thus, interest is imparted to the bead both by use and the effects of time

Besides their wearability, either as jewelry or incorporated into articles of attire, beads possess the desirable characteristics of every collectible, they are durable, portable, available

in infinite variety, and often valuable in their original cultural context as well as in today's market Pleasing to look at and touch, beads come in shapes, colors, and materials that almost compel one to handle them and to sort them

Beads are miniature bundles of secrets waiting to be revealed: their history, manufacture, cultural context, economic role, and ornamental use are all points of

information one hopes to unravel Even the most mundane beads may have traveled great

distances and been exposed to many human experiences The bead researcher must gather information from many diverse fields In addition to having to be a generalist while specializing in what may seem to be a narrow field, the researcher is faced with the problem

of primary materials that have little or no documentation Many ancient beads that are of ethnographic interest have often been separated from their original cultural context

The special attractions of beads contribute to the uniqueness of bead research While often regarded as the "small change of civilizations", beads are a part of every culture, and they can often be used to date archaeological sites and to designate the degree of mercantile, technological, and cultural sophistication

Question 36: What is the main subject of the passage?

A Materials used in making beads B How beads are made

C The reasons for studying beads D Different types of beads

Question 37: The word "adorned" in paragraph 1 is closest in meaning to

A protected B decorated C purchased D enjoyed

Question 38: All of the following are given as characteristics of collectible objects EXCEPT

_

Question 39: According to the passage, all of the following are factors that make people

want to touch beads EXCEPT the

A carved B ordinary C beautiful D heavy

Question 41: It is difficult to trace the history of certain ancient beads because they

C have been moved from their original locations

D are frequently lost

Milpa Alta is a region of twelve villages and towns to the south of Mexico City In Milpa Alta, traditions are still very important and one of the most famous traditional events is a community meal It takes place every Christmas and is called La Rejunta More than a meal, it’s

a feast, where about sixty thousand tamales and fifteen thousand litres of hot chocolate are made and consumed Tamales are made from corn They are typical of the region: the name Milpa Alta means “High cornfield” The feast is offered to the people who go on the long walk to El Señor de Chalma about 80 kilometers away It’s an important event on the religious calendar for local people and as many as 20,000 people take part

The planning and organisation of La Rejunta takes the whole year Every year, different people are given the job of majordomo, which means they’re responsible for organising the meal There’s a waiting list for the opportunity to do this and currently the next available year is
