second, a diverse population with a large number of subgroups; third, association among the subgroups and the majority population Finally, it is worth noting that the terms "standard", "colloquial" and "slang" exist only as abstract labels for scholars who study language Only a tiny number of the speakers of any language will be aware that they are using colloquial or slang expressions Most speakers of English will, during appropriate situations, select and use all three types of expressions Question 31: Which of the following is the main topic of the passage? A Standard speech B Idiomatic phrases C Dictionary usage D Different types of vocabulary Question 32: The word “obscurity” in paragraph mostly means A qualification B tolerance C disappearance D influence Question 33: The author mentions all of the following as requirements for slang expressions to be created EXCEPT A new situations B a new generation C interaction among diverse groups D a number of linguists Question 34: Which of the following is TRUE about standard usage?

A Words and phrases understood by the majority but not found in standard dictionaries B Words and phrases accepted by the majority for formal usage C Words and phrases that are understood by a restricted group of speakers D Words and phrases understood by a large number of speakers but not accepted as formal usage 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 Researchers in the field of psychology have found that one of the best way to make an important decision, such as choosing a university to attend or business to invest in, involves the utilization of a decision worksheet Psychologists who study optimization compare the actual decisions made by people to theoretical ideal decisions to see how similar they are Proponents of the worksheet procedure believe that it will yield optimal, that is, the best decisions Although there are several variations on the exact format that worksheets can take, they are all similar in their essential aspects Worksheets require defining the problem in a clear and concise way and then listing all possible solutions to the problem Next, the pertinent considerations that all possible solutions to the problem Next, the pertinent considerations that will be affected by each decision are listed, and the relative importance of each consideration or consequence is determined Each consideration is assigned a numerical value to reflect its relative importance A decision is mathematically calculated by adding these values together The alternative with the highest number of points emerges as the best decision Since most important problems are multifaceted, there are several alternatives to choose from, each with unique advantages and disadvantages One of the benefits of a pencil and paper decision-making procedure is that it permits people to deal with more variables than their minds can generally comprehend and remember On the average, people can keep about seven ideas in their minds at once A worksheet can be especially useful when the decision involves a large number of variables with complex relationships A realistic example for many college students is the question "What will I after graduation?" A graduate might seek a position that offers specialized training, pursue an advanced degree, or travel abroad for a year A decision-making worksheet begins with a succinct statement of the problem that will also help to narrow it It is important to be clear about the distinction between long-range and immediate goals because long-range goals often involve a different decision than short-range ones Focusing on long-range goals, a graduating student might revise the question above to "What will I after graduation that will lead to a successful career?"
