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.
Stonehenge, one of the oldest mysteries in the world lies in southern England. Even the name is ancient. The
word “henge” comes from Old English used over a thousand years ago. The word meant “hanging,” so Stonehenge
means “hanging stones.” However, the hanging stones go back much further than that.
Most recent research has found that Stonehenge was built in three stages and took at least 1,400 years to build.
The first stage was started about 5,000 years ago and took 50 years to complete. In this first construction, the people
who built Stonehenge dug a ditch and some holes. Historians believe these holes held long wooden poles. They don’t
know if there was a round building there or if the log poles were connected together more like the stones there today.
However, they have found some digging tools made from animal bones there which has told them how old this stage
is.
The second stage lasted for approximately the next 500 years. In this phase, it seems that some new holes were
made and some of the old holes were filled in. One of the most interesting things is that the old holes were usually
filled with burnt materials, often human ashes! These ashes and other building tools help historians tell the age of the
second phase.
The final phase took the longest time; almost 1,000 years. Some of the stones were brought by water, while
others came over land. These stones are terribly large and would be difficult even for modern machines to move. How
did the ancient people manage to move them? No one can say for certain, but it seems most likely that they were
moved through simple machines and willpower.
How the stones got into place is only one of the mysteries surrounding Stonehenge. Who built the massive
monument? Why did they build it? Was it for an ancient religion? Was it a tomb for a great person? Is it the gateway
to another world? No one can answer these questions, but there is one thing people agree on whenever they see it.
Stonehenge is one of the most impressive ancient mysteries anyone has ever seen.

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.
Plastic has transformed many aspects of daily life, from keeping food fresh to ensuring medical supplies stay
sterile. But in recent years it has become public enemy number one – almost entirely because of the way it is dealt with
after it has been used. Buried in landfill, it will stay there for hundreds of years. It releases toxic fumes into the
atmosphere if incinerated. And far too much ends up in the world’s oceans.
Shell Huang Xiaoyan, Vice-President, Research and Development, Asia at Coca-Cola showed off one of the
company’s new plant-based plastic alternatives. She described developing the PlantBottle as the “biggest honour” in
her career. It’s a 100% recyclable material, and since its initial launch in 2009 it has helped Coca-Cola reduce its
emissions by the equivalent of one million vehicles. Now, the company has opened the bottle’s patent to the public so
other developers and manufacturers can use it.
Meanwhile, PepsiCo – another giant of the food and beverage world – is also making headway in rethinking its
packaging materials. Its Aquafina water brand will be available in aluminum cans, rather than plastic bottles. Lifewtr
will be packaged in recycled polyethylene terephthalate (rPET) and Bubly sparkling water will no longer be packaged
in plastic at all. The company also has a series of sustainable packaging goals it hopes to hit by 2025, including
designing all of its packaging to be recyclable, compostable or biodegradable.
Tackling the problem of plastic pollution will need a series of joined-up interventions, while accepting that it
continues to play a vital role in 21st-century life. That’s likely to call for grassroots clean-up campaigns, better and
more consistent recycling infrastructure and policies, and a reduced reliance on single-use plastic in all but essential
cases.

Question 40: The word “its” in paragraph 2 refers to ______.
