B/ Reading : * Read the passage carefully, then choose the correct answers
I/ Last year I went to Nepal for three months to work in a hospital I think it's important to see as much of a country as you can, but it is difficult to travel around Nepal The hospital let me have a few days’ holiday, so I decided to go into the jungle and I asked a Nepalese guide, Kamal Rai, to go with me
We started preparing for the trip at six in the morning, and left camp with two elephants carrying our equipment It was hot but Kamal made me wear shoes and trousers to protect me from snakes In the jungle there was a lot of wildlife, but we were trying to find big cats, especially tigers We climbed onto the elephants' backs to get better view, but it is unusual to find tigers in the afternoon because they sleep in the heat of the day
Then, in the distance, we saw a tiger, and Kamal told me to be very quiet We crept nearer and found a dead deer, still bleeding This was the tiger's lunch! Suddenly I started to feel very frightened
We heard the tiger a second before we saw it It jumped out like a flash of lightning, five hundred kilos plus and four meters long I looked into its eyes and face, and saw right down the animal's throat It grabbed Kamal's leg between its teeth, but I managed to pull Kamal away One of our elephants ran at the tiger and made it go back into the grass, so we quickly escaped to let the tiger eat its lunch That night it was impossible to sleep!

III/ A YEAR WITH OVERSEAS VOLUNTEERS
I was with Overseas Volunteers (OV) for a year after leaving university, and I was sent to an isolated village in Chad, about 500 km from the capital N'Djamena Coming from' a rich country, I got quite a shock as conditions were much harder than I had expected But after a few days I soon got used to living there The people were always very friendly and helpful, and soon I began to appreciate how beautiful the countryside was
One of my jobs was to supply the village with water The well was a long walk away And the women used to spend a long time every day carrying heavy pots backwards and forwards So I contacted organization and arranged to have some pipes delivered We built a simple pipeline and a pump, and it worked first time It wasn't perfect - there were a few leaks, but it made a great difference to the villagers, who had never had running water before And not only did we have running water, but in the evenings it was hot, because the pipe had been lying in the sun all day All in all, I think my time with OV was a good experience Although it was not well-paid, it was well worth doing, and I would recommend it to anyone who was considering working for a charity

b It was not worth working c It wasted time d It provided good experience
IV/ No one knows the limits of population that the earth can support Thomas Malthus, an English economist, developed a theory that became widely accepted in the nineteenth century He suggested that because world population tended to increase more rapidly than the food supply, a continual strain was exerted upon available resources Malthus cited wars, famines, epidemics, and other diseases as the usual limitations of population growth
With recent advances in science and technology, including improved agricultural methods and great strides in medicine, some of the limiting factors in population growth have been lessened, with obvious results International organizations have put forward several recommendations to alleviate the problem of overpopulation, including an increase in food production, general economic development in target areas, and a decrease in birth rate Most experts agree that it will be necessary to combine all three recommendations in an effort to affect a lasting solution

Thanksgiving is celebrated in the US on the fourth Thursday in November For many Americans it is the most important holiday apart from Christmas Schools, offices and most businesses close for Thanksgiving, and many people make the whole weekend a vacation
Thanksgiving is associated with the time when Europeans first came to North America In 1620 the ship
the Mayflowers arrived, bringing about 150 people who today are usually called Pilgrims They arrived at the
beginning of a very hard winter and could not find enough to eat, so many of them died But in the following summer Native Americans showed them what foods were safe to eat, so that they could save food for the next winter They held a big celebration to thank God and the Native Americans for the fact that they had survived
Today people celebrate Thanksgiving to remember these early days
The most important part of the celebration is a traditional dinner with foods that come from North America The meal includes turkey, sweet potatoes (also called yams) and cranberries, which are made into a kind of sauce or jelly The turkey is filled with stuffing or dressing, and many families have their own special recipe Dessert is pumpkin made into a pie
On Thanksgiving there are special television programs and sports events In New York there is the Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade, when a long line of people wearing fancy costumes march through the streets with large balloons in- the shape of imaginary characters Thanksgiving is considered the beginning of the Christmas period, and the next day many people go out to shop for Christmas presents
