1) A matryoshka doll refers to a set of dolls of decreasing word size placed one inside the other, The
word a diminutive form of the Russian female first name 3 “atryoshka”, "Matryona". The first doll
set in Russia was carved in1890 by VasilyZvyozdochkin from a design by Sergey Malyutin, who
was a folk crafts painter. Traditionally the outer layer is a woman, dressed in a sarafan, a long
traditional Russian dress.
2) A set of matryoshkas consists of a wooden figure which separates, top from bottom, to reveal a
smaller figure of the same sort inside, which has, in turn, another figure inside of it, and so on. The
number of nested figures is traditionally not less than five, but can be much more, up to several
dozen with sufficiently fine craftsmanship. Modern dolls often yield an odd number of figures but
this is not an absolute rule; the fine craftsmanship. Modern dolls often yield an odd number of
figures but this is not an absolute rule; the original set, for instance, had an even number. The
form is approximately cylindrical, with a rounded to be for the head, tapering toward the bottom.
3) It is believed Zvyozdochkin and Malyutin were inspired as no protruding features by a doll from
Honshu, the main island of Japan. Sources differ in their descriptions, describing either a round,
hollow doll or a nesting doll, portraying a bald old Buddhist monk.
4) Zvyozdochkin"'s creations were first presented at the Exposition Universal in the year 1900 in Paris,
where the toy earned a bronze medal. Soon after, matryoshka dolls were being made in several
places in Russia and shipped around the world including to Europe, Asia and America.

5) Matryoshka dolls are often designed to follow a particular theme, and during Perestroika, the
leaders of the Soviet Union became a common theme of matryoshkas. In one such example, the
largest, outside figure was that of Mikhail Gorbachev, followed by Leonid Brezhnev Yuri Andropov
and Konstantin Chemenko almost never appear due to the short length of them of their respective
terms), Nikita Khushchev, Joseph Stalin and finally the smallest, Vladimir Lenin.

Passage 7 (‫) تلوث الهواء‬

1) Air pollution is a major problem all over the world today. Scientific research now shows us that
indoor air pollution may be a much greater danger than outdoor pollution. In one 2009 study,
researchers found 586 chemicals in the air of 52 typical homes in Arizona, USA. This led them to
conclude that indoor air quality can be five times worse than outdoor air. Offices, factories and
other places of work can be just as polluted as homes, maybe more so. In today's society most
people spend up to 90% of their time indoors. We seal our buildings tightly to reduce energy
costs. Equipment and buildings themselves, give off an increasing amount of synthetic man-made)
chemicals and gases. There is inadequate ventilation and no access to fresh air, all these harmful
elements are kept inside. This condition is known as "sick building syndrome" furnishings in
buildings, and the When condition is known as "sick building” syndrome.
2) The sources of indoor air pollution can be easily pollen, identified. Air pollutants fall into three
main categories: biological particles mold, bacteria, viruses, pollen, etc.). non-biological particles
smoke, dust, heavy metals, radioactive isotopes, etc.), and gases carbon monoxide, formaldehyde,
radon, etc.). In homes, there are four major sources of these pollutants: pressed wood products,
carpets, paints, and furniture. Addition, the indoor air space of offices is full of volatile organic
compounds (VOCs) produced by photocopiers, computers and other equipment. Dangerous
pollutants can also be found in air-conditioned rooms in summer and rooms heated by coal or
wood fires in winter. The kitchen is another place where the air may contain harmful gases from
cooking stoves and non-stick Teflon) cooking pans.
3) Poor indoor air quality can cause a number of health problems. These include asthma, allergies,
headaches, memory loss and fatigue tiredness). Eye and irritations can also result from bad indoor
air. People who spend a lot of time indoors away from fresh air skin may suffer more from sore
throats, colds and flu as well. The more serious long-term effects of breathing toxic airborne
particles include heart and respiratory diseases in addition to different kinds of cancer.
4) There are a number of ways to improve our indoor air very simple and make our buildings
healthier. One very simple solution is to get some houseplants. In India, people are already using
plants to take the place of air filters. One business center in New Delhi has successfully used this
method for fifteen years. For a building with 30 people, they used over 1,200 plants to clean the
air. There are other things we can do in our homes. Open a few windows every day for five or ten
minutes to change the air and do not allow smoking inside. Do not use non-stick cookware. Do
not use synthetic materials for carpets and buy real wood furniture. Use natural materials such as
cotton and wool for curtains and bedding. Do not use toxic cleaning materials or paints in your

Passage 8 (‫) اللغة العربية الرسمية واللهجات‬

1) The Arabic language has official status in over 20countries and is spoken by more than 250 million
people. However, the term "Arabic language" itself is used rather loosely and refers to different
varieties of the language. Arabic is characterized by an interesting linguistic dichotomy: the written
form of the language, Modem Standard Arabic MSA), differs in a non-trivial fashion from the
various spoken varieties of Arabic, each of which is a regional dialect. MSA is the only variety that
is standardized, regulated, and taught in schools. This is necessitated because of its use in written
communication in formal settings. The regional dialects, used primarily for day-to-day dealings
and spoken communication, are not taught formally in schools, and remain somewhat absent
from traditional, and certainly official, written communication.
2) A regional dialect doesn’t have an explicit written set of grammar but there is certain authoritative
organization. Furthermore, even though they are spoken varieties it is certainly possible to
produce dialectal Arabic text by spelling out words using the same spelling rules used in MSA,
which are mostly phonetic.
3) There is a reasonable level of mutual intelligibility across the dialects, but the extent to which a
particular individual is able to understand other dialects depends heavily on that person's own

dialect and their exposure to Arab culture and literature from outside of their own country. For
example, the typical Arabic speaker has little trouble understanding the Egyptian dialect, thanks
in no small part to Egypt's history in literature, movie-making and television show production, and
their popularity across the Arab world. On the other hand, the Moroccan dialect, especially in its
spoken form, is quite difficult to understand by a Levantine Syrian or Lebanese) speaker. Therefore,
from a scientific point of view, the dialects can be considered separate languages in their own
right, much like North Germanic languages Norwegian/Swedish/Danish) and West Slavic
languages Czech/Slovak/Polish).

52.The word This in Paragraph 1) refers to……… …‫) تشير إلى‬1( ‫كلمة هذا في برقراف‬
A. speaking in MSA

Passage 9 (‫)جراحة جديدة لرجل أصيب في حادث سيارة‬

1) A man who was paralyzed in a car crash four years ago has regained some use of his hands.

2) The 71-year-old broke his neck in the accident and was left unable to walk. Though he could still
move his arms, he had lost the ability to grasp or hold things in either hand. The university doctors

injuries.

Passage 4 (‫)ماركوبولو والايس كريم‬

1) The traveler Marco Polo retuned from his famous expedition to the Far East with fruit-flavored
ices. We know from Marco Polo that Asians had been making fruit-flavored ices for thousands of
years, long before he reached this part of the world. These delicacies became popular in France
in the 1500s, but only among royalty. Over the next few centuries, the process of making them
evolved and eventually cream was introduced as an ingredient. By the 1700s, people were enjoying
a dessert that was very similar to today's ice cream. It became a treat that could be enjoyed by
almost anyone, not just the rich.
2) The first wholesale manufacture of ice cream was in 1851 in Baltimore, Maryland by Jacob Fussel.
He had a dairy business that had excess cream which he decided to add to his ice cream. Soon
after that, his ice cream outsold all of his other dairy products.
3) The making of ice cream slowly evolved for the next few decades. Manufacturing methods and
ingredients improved and refrigeration technology became cheaper and more efficient. By the

1920s, home refrigerators and freezers became more common. This gave the ice cream industry
another boost. A problem developed during World War I in the U.S., when most sugar was shipped
to Europe and people were therefore only allowed to buy limited amounts of it convinced the
government that ice cream was an "essential food". Ice cream factories were given sugar and
production continued.

also polite and helpful. But the best part was the breakfasts which included different breads,
cheeses, jams, yogurt and fruits. Fantastic! I ate something different every day. There were two
things I did not like: the swimming pool was too small for swimming, and the Internet was too
slow to watch videos. However, I'll be visiting again. Peter from Australia).

Passage 15 (‫)البيزنس وكيف يخطط لينجح‬

1) Around the world, people start millions of new 1) businesses every year and most of them fail in
the first year. Lack of proper planning is a common reason for this problem. The fact is, many
people simply don't make or follow a good plan, one that takes risks into account, when they start
their business. Starting a new business always involves taking risks, but some risks can be avoided.
A good business plan shows you and your possible financial backers-that you have thought
carefully about potential problems you might face and that you have ways to solve them carefully
about potential problems you might face and that you have ways to solve them.
2) Here are some crucial questions a business plan should answer. Start with these, as they are
essential to your success. Is there a market for your product? How big is that market? Are people
willing to pay a reasonable price for your product? How big an investment will you need to make
to start? What will your operating expenses rent, raw materials, labor, taxes, utilities, etc.) be? How
might they change? Why will customers choose you over your competitors? Do you have a
marketing plan?
3) Next you must ask yourself if the answers you gave to these questions are based on valid research
and facts, or as is more usual, are they just guesses and wishful thinking? Guesses are dangerous,
but even the best research can be wrong. Things change quickly in the business world. Do you
have a "plan B" for unexpected problems? For example, if you need to lower your prices to get

more business, will you still be able to make a profit? If sales are lower than you expect, do you
have enough money set aside to advertise?
4) If you can't give a good answer to one or more of these questions, your new business can quickly
be in big trouble. So anyone who is thinking about starting a new business should create a good
business plan. It is the best way to avoid unnecessary problems.

Passage 16 (‫)فاست فوود وضرره وتجربة سالي دافيس على وجبة الأطفال‬

1) Fast food restaurants, especially some American chains, One of have become very popular all over
the world. the most famous produces a meal especially designed for children called a "Children's
Meal." The package contains not only a hamburger and French fries, but also a plastic toy as a
prize. Most children beg their parents to take them out for such a treat, preferring it to the more
nutritious, if boring, home-cooked meal.
2) What is so special about this fast-food favorite? Well, for one thing, it will last forever, will not rot
or mold, and even bacteria will not eat it! It is essentially no different from the plastic toy included
with the meal. In April, 2010, New York artist and photographer Sally Davies bought a Children's
Meal and left it out on her kitchen shelf to see what would happen to it. She photographed it each
week, and by October six months later, it appeared to be exactly the same! The only thing she
noted was that the "food" had become as hard as a rock and looked like plastic. Her experiment
became famous and is known as "The Children's Meal Art Project."
3) Sally Davies was not the first one to test the durability of a fast-food hamburger. In 2008, a teacher
named Karen Hanrahan posted photos on the Internet of a hamburger she purchased at the
famous fast-food chain in 1996. After 12 years, the burger looked exactly the same as the day she
bought it. The bun was a bit harder, and the burger itself was beginning to crumble, but essentially,
it was unchanged. She still keeps this hamburger and shows it to her classes to teach them about
the dangers of eating such "non-food". she tells them that this is a chemical food, and there is
absolutely no nutrition in it, nothing of value for the health of the human body. stomach. It does
nothing more than fill your stomach. It is certainly not a treat," she says.
4) When we read the list of ingredients in all these so-called meals and burgers, we must wonder
why there are tens of different chemicals, preservatives artificial flavors and so on along with the
potato, meat, cheese and bread ingredients. This American-based fast food chain ships all its food
from large central factories to branches throughout the entire world. One of their hamburgers
here tastes exactly the same as it does in China and probably lasts just as long as well.
49. What the main idea of the passage? ‫ما هي الفكرة الرئيسية لهذه القطعه؟‬
A. making discovers takes time.
B. Fast food is popular around the world
C. We need to be more aware of what we eat
D. Photograph is an effective way to communicate

Passage 17 (‫ قياس النشاط البركاني وسبب قوة بركان‬79)


1) Volcanologists constantly monitor any changes in levels of seismic activity on Vesuvius because
they know that the increase of activity in the deep reservoir of magma causes both earth tremors
and volcanic eruptions. Through measuring seismic activity, these scientists expect to predict an
approaching eruption months before it happens.

2) The seismic activity of Mount Vesuvius happens again and again, and the longer the intervals
between eruptions, the greater the next explosion will be. The frequent but low-level activity of
Vesuvius in recent centuries has relieved the build-up of pressure. The catastrophic magnitude of
the eruption of AD 79 was connected with the extended period of inactivity before it.

C. It is NOT possible to predict when a volcanic eruption may occur in Vesuvius.
D. Earth tremors and volcanic eruptions happen in Vesuvius every couple of months.
56. According to Paragraph 2), why was the eruption in 79AD so severe?
‫ م بهذه الخطورة؟‬79 ‫ لماذا كان ثوران البركان في عام‬، )2( ‫وف ًقا لبرقراف‬
A. There is evidence that the pressure released over centuries.
B. There is always a severe eruption there every hundred years.
C. There was a long period without seismic activity and then it started again.
D. There was a continuous but growing amount of seismic activity in the area.

Passage 18 ( ‫)السفن والتحسينات التي ادخلها العرب على صناعتها‬


1) There are few ships as beautiful and graceful as an Arab dhow under full sail. They are sleek, fast,
and easy to control with these vessels, Arab sailors maintained extensive trade links in dangerous
seas all the way from Africa to China. The great contribution they made to Europe's development
was simple-their triangular lateen" sail.
2) In the 15th century, most European ships used only square sails. Because of this they were only
able to sail1 effectively when the wind was almost directly behind them. Prince Henry of Portugal
borrowed ideas from the Arab dhow and designed ships that used Arab lateen sails on European
hulls. With this improvement, European explorers could go farther faster and sail into the wind.
Consequently, they became much more effective. Columbus's three ships all used this borrowed
technology on their first voyage to America.

Passage 2 (‫) تلوث الهواء الداخلي‬
1- Air is the ocean we breathe. It supplies us with oxygen which is essential for our bodies. Air is
made up of a mixture of nitrogen, Oxygen, water vapor and inert gases. Human activities release
substances into the air and some of these can cause problems for humans, Plants and animals.
These Problems are usually referred to as air pollution.
2- There are several problems that result from air pollution. The main ones we usually hear about
are smog, acid rain, the greenhouse effect and "holes" in the ozone layer. Each of these problems
has serious implications for our health and well-being as well as for the environment as a whole.
3- The release of particles into the air from burning fuel for energy is often discussed as a huge
problem. Diesel smoke is a good example of the particulate matter that results in this pollution.
The particles are very small pieces of matter measuring about 2.5 microns or 0.0001 centimeter.
This type of pollution is sometimes referred to as "Black Carbon" pollution. The exhaust from
burning fuels in automobiles, homes, and industries is a major source of pollution in the air
Authorities also believe that the burning of the wood and charcoal in fireplaces and barbeques
release significant quantities of soot into the air.
4- Another type of pollution is the release of noxious gases, such as sulfur dioxide, carbon monoxide,
nitrogen oxides, as well as chemical vapors. These take part in chemical reactions once they are
in the atmosphere, resulting in smog and acid rain.
5- We must also consider air pollution inside our homes, offices, and schools. Some pollutants are
created by indoor activities such as smoking and cooking. Most people spend about 80-90% of
their time inside buildings. That means our exposure to harmful indoor pollutants can be serious.
It is therefore important to consider both indoor and outdoor air pollutions.
22. According to Paragraph 1), which of the following are constituents of air?
‫ أي مما يلي عبارة عن مكونات الهواء؟‬، )1( ‫وف ًقا للبرقراف‬
A. nitrogen and water vapor, but NOT oxygen.
B. nitrogen and oxygen, but NOT water vapor.
C. nitrogen, oxygen and water vapor

A. spend most of their time in buildings
B. often bum charcoal for cooking
C. sleep, smoke and cook indoors
D. often bum wood for heating
Passage 3 (‫) نوم الحيوانات‬
1) All animals must rest, but do they really sleep as we know it? The answer to this question seems
obvious. If an animal regularly stops its activity and stays quiet and unmoving - if it looks as though
it is sleeping - then why not simply assume that it is in fact sleeping? But how can observers be
sure that an animal is sleeping?
2) They can watch the animal and notice whether its eyes are open or closed, whether it is active
or lying quietly, and whether it responds to light or sound. These factors are important clues, but
they often are not enough. Horses and cows, for example, rarely close their eyes whereas fish and
snakes cannot close them. Yet this does not necessarily mean that they do not sleep. Have you
ever seen a cat dozing with one eye partly open? Even humans have occasionally been observed
sleeping with one eye or both eyes partially open. Animals don't necessarily lie down to sleep
either Elephant for example often sleep standing up with their tusks resting in the fork of a tree.

Finally, while sleeping animals often seem unaware of changes in the sound and light and other
stimuli around them, that does not really prove they are sleeping either.
3) Observation alone cannot fully answer the question of whether or not animals sleep. The
answers come from scientists doing experiments in sleep laboratories using a machine called the
electroencephalograph (EEG). The machine is connected to the animals measures their brain
signals, breathing, heartbeat and muscle activity. The measurements are different when the
animals appear to be sleeping than when they appear to be awake. Using the EEG, scientists have
confirmed that all birds and mammals studied in laboratories do steep.
4) There is some evidence that reptiles, such as snakes and turtles, do not truly sleep, although
they do have periods of rest each day, in which they are quiet and unmoving. They also have
discovered that some animals like chimpanzees, cats and moles who live underground) are good
sleepers while others like sheep, goats and donkeys are poor sleepers. Interestingly, the good
sleepers are nearly all hunters with resting places that are safe from their enemies. Nearly all the
poor sleepers are animals hunted by other animals; they must always be afraid.

27. Which of the following statements gives the main idea of the passage?

Passage 8 (‫)جسر الملك فهد \جسر البحرين‬


(1) King Fahd Causeway is a sea bridge that connects the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia with the
Kingdom of Bahrain. The idea of building a bridge linking the Kingdom of Bahrain to the Eastern
region of the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia was born out of King Saud's wish to develop and further
solidify the links between the two Kingdoms, during an official visit to the State of Bahrain in 1954.
(2) In 1965, the desire to construct the causeway began to take form officially when Sheikh
Khalifah bin Salman Al Khalifah the Prime Minister of the State of Bahrain paid a courtesy visit to
King Faisal and the king expressed his wish to have the causeway constructed.
(3) In 1968, both countries formed a joint committee. They formed it to assess the financial
undertaking required for the task. As a result, the World Bank was requested by the committee
to contribute their assistance in methods of implementation of the mammoth-sized project. This
required taking into account the environmental and geographical aspects of the Saudi-Bahrain
region.
(4) In the summer of 1973, King Faisal, in a meeting which included Amir ShaikhIsa bin Salman Al
Khalifa as well as the then prince, Fahd bin Abdul Aziz and Shaikh Khalifa bin Salman Al Khalifa,
suggested that committee overlook the economic and financial aspects of the project and
concentrate on the actual construction of the causeway.
(5) In 1975, the World Bank submitted its study and advice after seeking assistance from
specialist international expertise in studying the geographic, environmental factors and maritime
currents.
In the spring of 1976, during a visit by King Khalid bin Abdul Aziz to Shaikh Isa bin Salman Al
Khalifa, the two monarchs agreed to set up a ministerial committee from the two countries to

Passage 4 (‫)خالد وورشة العمل بنهاية الأسبوع‬


Workshop and Khalid
(1) Khalid attended a weekend workshop on mind fullness training and it had been great. He felt he
had really benefited from what he had learned. Mindfulness is basically a way to discipline and
control one's actions in such a way that they are always in line with one's goals. The first thing he
had learned was that for attentive mindfulness, a person's goals in life must be clearly thought out
and selected. Once that is done, the next step is to keep all details on how we spend our energy
in a state of conscious awareness. The result is that we are always on target. The most insignificant
detail then becomes an effortless expenditure of energy that keeps us in line with our goals.

water. Although we cannot see it, water does contain oxygen. To get this oxygen, the fish forces
water through its gills. The gills absorb oxygen and release carbon dioxide into the water which
then passes out through the gills.

the neighbour and her servants were told to dig a well. Instead of water, the salt was
discovered-and in the first lump of salt which was taken out, Kinga's ring was found!
(2) The legend is just a story - but it is true that for over seven centuries salt has been mined
from the rock below the town of Wieliczka. The salt used to be dug out by hand, and until 1620
it was carried up to the surface by the miners. After the chamber was destroyed by fire in 1697,
the miners were not allowed to take the wooden statue of the mine, so they began to carve
sculptures of rock salt.

Passage 9 Currencies (‫)العملات المعدنية أصولها وأسباب تسميتها‬


(1) There are so many currencies in the world with differing names. The origins and development of
these names and uses have an interesting history.
(2) The dollar is one of the most common currencies in the world used by the US, Australia, Canada,
Fiji, New Zealand, and Singapore to name a few. The origin of the dollar, also the Slovenian tolar,
is from a German coin called the Joachimsthaler, shortened to Thaler or dalerin Low German). It
was named after the valley in which the silver it was made from was mined, the Joachimsthal,
literally Joachim"s valley. The term began to be used in other languages, especially Dutch, and
was later applied to the most widely used coin in the American colonies.In 1792, it was adopted
as the official name of the US monetary unit.
(3) Many countries use the dinar, which comes from the Latin denarius, an ancient Roman silver coin:
The Jordanian dinar. Algerian dinar, Serbian dinar, and Kuwaiti dinar among others.
(4) The Indian and Pakistani rupee as well as the Indonesian rupiah derive from the Sanskrit rupya,
meaning 'wrought silver, which is what they were originally made of.
(5) The Malaysian mggit is from the Malay for jagged and refers to the serrated edges of the Spanish
silver dollars used as currency in Malaysia before the ringgit was introduced. Serrated edges on
coins became popular when coins were made of precious metals like gold and silver because the
ridges made it harder for people to scrape off metal and devalue the coins.

and the Finnish markka, both have their origin in units of weight. While Spanish peso meaning
'weight" in Spanish, is also no longer used in Spain, it lives on as the currency of Mexico, Argentina

(7) Many Scandinavian countries use currency whose name is ultimately derived from the Latin corona
meaning crown': Swedish krona, Norwegian krone, Danish krone, and the Czech koruna.krone,
Danish.
(8) The Spanish real, a former currency of Spain derived from the Latin regalis meaning royal, which
is the origin of a number of Middle Eastern currencies such as the Omani and Iranian riyal, and

Passage 6 ( ‫) مشاهدة التلفزيون واثارها السيئة‬

1) Is your television killing you? Did you know that every hour you spend watching it can take 22
minutes off of your life? This means that viewing for an average of six hours a day can cut short
your life by five years!
2) The above information is based on a study done by a group of researchers at the University of
Queensland, Australia. The inactivity associated with TV viewing is dangerous and gives greater
opportunities for unhealthy overeating. The researchers also showed that a sedentary lifestyle is
as bad for health as smoking cigarettes. The scientists calculated that half an hour of watching TV’
is equivalent to smoking one cigarette, with both cutting 11 minutes off a lifespan. Australians
watch TV for an average of six hours per day and health effects are likely to be similar in other
industrialized countries: the average amount of time spent watching TV daily is four hours in the
UK and live hours in the United States.
3) An earlier study associated television viewing with the risk of developing type-2 diabetes and heart
disease, as well as with the risk of early death. That research showed that these risks rose by 20%
for people who spend just two hours a day in front of the TV.
4) The good news is that exercising for just 15 minutes a day can increase your lifespan by up to
three years. It can also reduce the risk of premature death by 14%. Each extra 15 minutes of
exercise added to that can decrease this risk by another 4%.

Muhammad peace be upon him). It is still practiced in some parts of the world and has many
medical benefits. When Hijama is performed, small cuts are made at specific body sites, and
impure blood is taken out. This blood is collected in small glass “cups”. Afterwards, the body feels
refreshed and energized, having been cleansed of impurities and toxins or poisons.
2) Hijama can sometimes offer relief where other forms of treatment or medications have failed. It is
highly recommended in cases of lethargy and dullness, and for people with headaches. indigestion
or sleeping problems. These complaints can be signs that the body is suffering from some form
of toxicity.
3) A qualified Hijama practitioner must use clean instruments and utensils and perform the therapy
carefully and with great sensitivity. Treatment is often performed on the 17th, the 19th, or the 21st
of the lunar month. When done in coordination with a healthy diet and exercise, Hijama can give
long-lasting, satisfactory results. Ideally, it should be done at least once a year.

Passage 10 ( ‫) الحمام وشعور الكاتب المختلط تجاهه‬


1) When I see pigeons all around outside, a part of in admires them while another part is disgusted
by them, admire them for their ability to adapt to and flourish in their environment, no matter
where they are and I am disgusted by how dirty they can be!
2) In all the places I have travelled, whether it is North America. Europe, the Middle East, Africa, or
East Asia, pigeons are always a natural part of the scenery. They build nests wherever there is a
suitable space in the urban or country environment. In the city, you'll find them on window ledges

51
‫أكاديمية عايد للتدريب‬
‫ وإلا تتحمل المسئولية كاملة أمام الجهات المختصة‬0568955606 ‫هذه الملفات خاصة بأكاديمية عايد محمية بحقوق حفظ ونسخ فلا تحاول الحصول عليها بط ريقة غير شرعية إلا عن طريق‬

or any other relatively safe nook or cranny. On the countryside, they build nests in trees, bushes,
or on the ground.
3) In addition to living in many different locations, pigeons also come in numerous sizes and colors.
The smallest pigeons are the size of sparrows, whereas the largest can grow up to the size of a
turkey! Some fruit-eating pigeons are very brightly colored, with red. pink, or orange feathers.
Some pigeons even have crests or other distinctive ornamentation. Most pigeons I see in the city,
however, are a dull-colored gray, with occasional splash of subtle dark green or purple plumage
around the neck.
4) While perhaps pigeons mind their own business in their natural green environment. in the city
they are often considered pests. I myself have often thought of them as “rats with wings.” Like
rats, they show up wherever there are scraps of food to be eaten, but unlike nocturnal rats, they
do it during all times of the day. Many pigeons are also not afraid of humans, but will walk very
close to them to peck up any crumbs.
5) The worst aspect of pigeons living alongside us in the city is that they produce a lot of smelly
waste! I hate having to walk over sidewalks that are coated in pigeon droppings, and have more
than once had to hold my breath to avoid the stench. Often, urban pigeons also look very dirty.
because their feathers are coated with particulate matter from the city's polluted air
6) Despite their negative characteristics, though. I respect pigeons because they are useful to people
in several ways. They have served as a cheap form of protein and have also been successfully
trained to carry important messages. Furthermore, they are a form of entertainment for young
children at the park who love watching them walk around with their characteristic head bobbing.
Pigeons also help clean up dropped food that would otherwise go to waste. If only they didn’t
also leave their own waste everywhere as a result.
45. In Paragraph 1), the writer wants to tell the reader about __________.
.....‫ يريد الكاتب أن يخبر القارئ عن‬، )1( ‫في البرقراف‬
A. his mixed feelings toward pigeons.
B. the benefits of pigeons to human beings.
C. how pigeons can sometimes get very dirty.
D. the ways pigeons adapt to all environments.

A. Always build nests on window ledges in the city.
B. Prefer the countryside to the city for building nests.
C. Find ways to survive on all of the continents on earth.
D. Build their nests and thrive in any place they inhabit.

Passage 11 (‫) النمل‬


1) Like all insects, ants have six legs. Each leg has three joints. The legs of the ant arc very strong so
they can run very quickly. If a man could run as fast for his size as an ant can, he could run as fast
as a racehorse. Ants can lift 20 times their own body weight. An ant brain has about 250.000 brain
cells. A human brain has 10 billion brain cells, so a colony of 40.000 ants has collectively the same
number of brain cells as one human brain.
2) The average life expectancy of an ant is 45-60 days. Ants use their antennae not only for touch,
but also for smell the head of the ant has a pair of large, strong jaws. The jaws open and shut
sideways like a pair of scissors. Even adult ants cannot chew and swallow solid food. Instead, they
swallow the juice which they squeeze from pieces of food and throw away the dry part that is left.
3) The ant has two eyes, each of which is made of many smaller eyes, so they are called compound
eyes. The abdomen of the ant contains two stomachs. One stomach holds the food for itself and
the second stomach is for food to be shared with other ants. Like all insects. the outside of their
body is covered with a hard armor called the exoskeleton. Ants have four distinct growing stages,
the egg. larva, pupa and the adult are classified as a special group of wasps.
4) There are over 10.000 known species of ants. They all live in social groups usually called colonies.
A colony has one or more queens. The sole duty of a queen is to lay eggs. The worker ants, all of

Since the worker ants are sterile, their roles within the colony might be looking after the young,
providing food, or defending the nest from unwanted visitors. Ants are clean and tidy insects, so
some worker ants are given the job of taking the rubbish from the nest and putting it outside in
a special rubbish dump. Each colony of ants has its own smell. In this way, intruders can be
recognized immediately. Many ants, such as the red species, have stingers which they use to
defend their nest. However, some ants - like black ants and wood ants - have no stingers, but can
squirt acid to defend themselves and the colony.

credit loans to more than six million people in Bangladesh. The program has enabled millions of
Bangladeshis, almost all women, to buy everything from cows to cell phones in order to start and
run their own businesses. Yunus’ strategy has been the opposite of traditional banks. He would
say: “If the banks lent to the rich, lent to the poor. If banks lent to men, I lent to women. If banks
required collateral, my loans were collateral free. If banks required a lot of paperwork, my loans
were illiterate friendly. if you had to go to the bank, my bank went to the village.”

Passage 13 (‫) تاريخ اللغة الإنجليزية في جنوب افريقيا‬
The English language history of South Africa has many strands. There was initially a certain amount
of regional dialect variation among the different groups of British settlers, with the speech of the
London area predominant in the Cape, and Midlands and Northern speech strongly represented
in Natal; but in due course a more homogenous accent emerged – an accent that shares many
similarities with the accents of Australia, which was also being settled during this period. In
addition, English came to be used, along with Afrikaans and often other languages, by those with
an ethnically mixed background; and it was also adopted by the many immigrants from India, who
arrived in the country from around 1986.

Passage 14
Vegetarian Indian immigrants to Great Britain began to suffer from pernicious anemia not long
after their arrival. It was discovered that the cause of the disease was the overly-hygienic dried
fruits and packaged foods they were consuming in Britain. Back in India, there were minute
amounts of insect parts in the dried fruits, and this provided them with enough Vitamin B, to
prevent anemia. Once food is sterilized, sanitized, freeze-dried, artificially colored and preserved
(all untouched by human hands), it is probably no longer fit for consumption anyway.

Passage 17 (‫) الجرافيم‬


1) Scientists often discover clever methods to advance their research. In 2003, one ingenious
physicist took a block of graphite, some Scotch tape and a lot of patience and fashioned a
remarkable new wonder material that is a million times thinner than paper, more conductive than
copper, and stronger than diamond. It is called grapheme, and physicists were wildly excited when
the first research article about grapheme describing the newly developed carbon material
appeared the following year.
2) Grapheme is a “wonder material”, a super-conductive form of carbon, made from sheets a single
atom thick. Physicists are so excited about it because it has the potential to completely transfigure
the field of electronics and nanotechnology.
3) The man who first isolated grapheme is Andre Geim. He works in an English university, but studied
at the Moscow Physical-Technical University and earned his PhD from the Institute of Solid-State
Physics in Chernogolovka, Russia.

Passage 18 (‫)جزر الهاواي ظهورها وسبب تكونها‬


1) The formation of the Hawaiian Islands was very different from the formation of the continents.
Geologists believe that the islands appeared separately and more recently. According to the
geological evidence, they were formed by volcanoes only about 30 million years ago.
2) These volcanoes began when some cracks appeared on the bottom of the Pacific Ocean. Deep
under the earth’s surface, the rocks are very hot, so hot that they are in a liquid from called lava.
This lava can sometimes come up through openings on the surface of the earth. The piles of lava
slowly build up and become mountains. When the openings are on the ocean floor, the mountains
are at first underwater. They may eventually become tall enough to rise above the water and form
islands. This is how the Hawaiian Archipelago was created.
3) Younger Hawaiian Islands are still growing. The Big Island of Hawaii has two active volcanoes
which are still adding new lava to the island. There are also new islands in the archipelago in the
process of formation. Geologists have found an underwater volcano about 30 miles south of the
island of Hawaii. Now about 3.000 feet below the surface of the ocean, it will probably rise above
the water. Someday, this volcano could become another Hawaiian island.
45- What is the main topic of the passage? ‫ما هو الموض وع الرئيسي للقطعه؟‬
(A) How geologists discovered volcanoes in the Hawaiian Islands.
(B) How the Hawaiian Islands appeared and were formed in the sea.

Passage 17 (‫) قناة السويس و أهميتها لأوروبا‬


Use only information from the passage when you answer the questions.
1) In 1859, thanks to the efforts of a French diplomat and politician, Ferdinand de Lesseps, work
started on the Suez Canal. Though he was not an engineer, he had been haunted by the idea of
the canal since his youth. De Lesseps spent a decade supervising the massive operation that
involved the excavation of about 97 million cubic yards of earth.
2) De Lesseps first established an artificial harbor at Port Said as a base and had a canal dug from
the Nile to the Suez to provide fresh-water for the 20.000 laborers.
3) The official opening was on November 17, 1869. Representatives of almost every European royal
family attended the inauguration celebration. Ships from France, Russia, Austria, Italy, Britain, and
the United States sailed through the canal and de Lesseps’ dream was finally a reality. The total
cost of the project was an estimated $ 105 million, which at the time was a lot of money. This was
more than twice the original estimate, but it was a tiny sum compared with the value of the canal
to world trade.

Passage 18 (‫)لعبة العجلة الدوارة وتطبيقاتها الفيزياية‬

1) If you’re studying physics, there are few more exhilarating things to learn about than a roller
coaster. Roller coasters are driven almost entirely by basic inertial and gravitational forces, all
manipulated in the service of a great ride.
2) Roller coasters have a long, fascinating history. The direct ancestors of roller coasters were
monumental ice slides that were popular in Russia in the 16th and 17th centuries.
3) Roller coaster historians diverge on the exact evolution of these ice slides into actual rolling carts.
The most widespread account is that a few entrepreneurial Frenchman imported the ice slide idea
to France. The warmer climate of France tended to melt the ice, so the French started building
waxed slides instead, eventually adding wheels to the sleds.
4) The first American roller coaster was the Mauch Chunk Switchback Railway, built in the mountains
of Pennsylvania in the mid-1800s. the track, originally built to send coal to a railway, was
reconfigured as a “scenic tour.” For one dollar, tourists got a leisurely ride up to the top of the
mountain followed by a wild, bumpy ride back down. Over the next 30 years, these scenic rides
continued to thrive and were joined by wooden roller coasters similar to the ones we know today.

Passage 1 (‫)مايك الاطفائي وتجربة إطفاء منهكة‬

(1) Over the roar of the fire, Mike heard Ben shout, "Hurry! The fire is almost on us!" Mike's arms
were sore and tired, but he swung his axe even faster. He didn't even stop to wipe the tears from
his stinging eyes. The greedy fire kept coming. The more the fire destroyed, the more it wanted.
Mike worked shoulder to shoulder with the other smokejumpers to build a firebreak. His only
thought was to stop the flaming monster that was raging through the forest.
(2) At last, the smokejumpers finished the firebreak. If the fire were powerful enough, it would
jump over the firebreak that they had worked so hard to make. Then they would have to start all
over again. Mike stood motionless, his face black with ash, his shirt wet with sweat. He was too
exhausted to move because he had given all of himself to fighting the fire. He turned his head
and noticed Ben watching him.
(3) Suddenly all that Ben had taught Mike about proving his bravery was clear. A man was not
brave if he did something just to prove his courage. He was brave only when he forgot about
himself. Today Mike had showed that he cared very much about the others with whom he was
working.

Passage 3 (‫)النجوم الوانها واحجامها وبعدها وطرق تصنيفها‬


(1) If we look at the night sky carefully, we will see that the stars are of many different colors. Some
are red, others are yellow and some are blue. This is also shown when we take color photographs
of the night sky. You can take such a photograph with an ordinary camera as long as it is kept
steady. A thirty second exposure is sufficient.
(2) Astronomers have been able to classify stars according to color. They have found that blue
stars are the largest and red stars the smallest. However, there are a few stars which cannot be
classified in this way. These are the superstars. For example, Ryiejol is a blue superstar as big as
40,000 suns and Beetle juice is a superstar with a size equal to 17,000 suns.
(3) Suppose an astronomer observes two stars, one brighter than the other. If neither of them is a
superstar, he will know immediately that the brighter star is closer. Astronomers have instruments
like light meters which can measure the brightness of a star quite accurately. It is possible to
measure a star's distance from the earth if astronomers know the color, brightness and whether
or not it is a superstar.

Passage 4 (‫)المادة الجيلاتينية البرتقالية وحيرة العلماء من تفسير كنيتها وسبب لونها‬

(1) A mysterious, orange, sticky gel, found on the beaches of Kivalina, a village situated on the
Alaskan coast between Kotzebue and Point Hope, was recently the source of much interest. Many

chemical reaction. Others had more farfetched ideas about the substance's origins ranging from
aliens to volcanic remains.

Passage 5 (‫) بركان فيزوف‬

(1) It is certain that when the eruption of Vesuvius started on the morning of 24 August, in the
year 79 AD, it caught the population in the Roman city completely unprepared. We now know in
retrospect that all of the signs were there to warn them.
(2) It is mainly thanks to the vivid eyewitness account of Pliny the Younger that we have some
understanding of what happened. And it is through him that we can gain insight into the reactions
and feelings of the people caught up in the drama of this natural disaster.
(3) His account Naves no doubt that everyone was caught off guard. His uncle, known as Pliny the
Elder, was stationed in command of the imperial naval base at Misenum. In addition to being the
senior military officer in the district, he was also a scientist. His 37-volume Natural History is the
longest work on science in Latin that has survived from antiquity.
(4) Despite his scientific knowledge, the sighting of a column of smoke on the far side of the bay
triggered a response more of curiosity than of alarm. Pliny's casual reference to earth tremors
reveals the Roman's great ignorance of the link between seismic activity and volcanic eruptions.
(5) The volcanologists of today constantly monitor any changes in levels of seismic activity from
the observatory on Vesuvius because they know that the same increase of activity in the deep
reservoir of magma causes both earth tremors and volcanic eruptions. Through measuring seismic
activity, these scientists expect to predict an approaching eruption months before it happens.
(6) They also know that the activity of Vesuvius is recurrent, meaning it happens again and again,
and that the longer the intervals between eruptions, the greater the next explosion will be. The
frequent but low-level activity of Vesuvius in recent centuries has relieved the build-up of pressure
in the magma chamber. The catastrophic magnitude of the eruption of AD 79 was connected with
the extended period of inactivity that preceded it. A long interval combined with mounting seismic
activity is a sure sign of coming disaster. Of course, the Romans could not have known this.
46. The pronoun we in Paragraph 1) shows that the writer---- ‫) يدل على‬1( ‫الضمير نحن في البرقراف‬
.‫أن الكاتب‬
A. believes that his feelings will be shared by many others.
B. is distancing himself from the experience he describes.

C. is describing the experience of someone else.


D. is speaking to one particular person.
47. The phrase in retrospect in Paragraph 1) is closest in meaning to ------------.
....... ‫) هي الأقرب في المعنى ل‬1 ‫العبارة "في الماضي" في البرقراف‬
A. looking out
B. looking back
C. looking away
D. looking forward
48. From Paragraph 2) we understand that Pliny the Younger------.
........‫) نفهم أن بليني الأصغر‬2( ‫من البرقراف‬
A. explained exactly how the eruption happened.
B. survived the eruption and told his uncle.
C. wrote his account as though it was a drama not really happening.
D. gave detail about the eruption and the effect it had on the population.
49. we can understand from Paragraph 6) that the eruption in 79AD was so severe because
A. There was a long time when there was no seismic activity and then it started again.
B. There was a continuous but growing amount of seismic activity in the area.
C. There is evidence that the pressure in the magma chamber was released over centuries.
D. There is such a severe eruption there around every hundred years.

Passage 6 (‫)النحل‬
(1) The Holy Quran tells us that insects form communities Surat al-An'am, 38) and that they can
communicate more than 1,400 years afterwards, has accepted that this information is indeed
correct. Now, scientists in the United Kingdom are learning that some of these amazing creatures
may also have feelings and emotions similar to those of humans.
(2) At Newcastle University, they are trying to discover how some insects feel. In recent years,
honeybee numbers have been declining worldwide at a disturbing rate. Many explanations have
been given for this. Some say the bees are dying because of disease and pesticides. Others say it
may be due to pollution or microwave towers. At any rate, this is a very serious situation, for
humans as well as for the bees. At least one-third of the world's crops depend on bees. Farmers
are worried. What about the bees? How do they feel? Are they scared, sad or depressed?
(3) The researchers trained a group of bees to tell the difference between two smells. After one
smell, they were always given a sweet sugar reward. After the other smell, they were given a bitter
substance. They quickly learned to choose the smell with the sweet prize and to stick out their
tongues to get it. The scientists wanted to see what the bees would do if they were put in a
stressful situation. They shook up half of the bees, to make them think they were in danger. These
stressed bees refused to put out their tongues for new smells, and only chose the old smell which

they knew would be followed by a sweet treat. Even though there was an equal chance that a
strange smell would taste good, it seemed they believed it would taste bad and were afraid to try
it. These bees had become “pessimists". The other half-the unstressed bees-were much more
likely to try tastes from new smells, thus remaining “optimists”.
(4) When humans are stressed, anxious, worried or depressed, they have lower levels of the brain
hormone serotonin. So did the stressed bees. This may mean that the feelings of anxious and
stressed bees are similar to those of humans with mood disorders. This knowledge, along with
further investigations into bee behavior and "feelings" can hopefully be used to understand and
remedy their declining numbers, for their sake and for ours.
50. The words these amazing creatures in Paragraph 1) refer to --------
.......‫) تشير إلى‬1( ‫كلمة "هذه المخلوقات المدهشة" في البرقراف‬

Passage 7 (‫)تسريب المياه في موقع العمل‬

1. The damage you described in your letter dated Jury has now been inspected.
The faults in the wiring appear to have been caused by dripping water from the floor above. The
electrical contractor, who installed the wiring in February, tells me that the wall was dry at the time
he replaced the old wires. However, we will arrange for repairs to be made and seal off that
section.
2. Dura’s floor is one of the most hardwearing materials of its kind on the market and we were
surprised to hear that it had worn away within six months, so we made a closer inspection. We
noticed that the floor had been cut into and this seems to have been the result of dragging heavy
metal boxes across it. The one-year guarantee we offer on our workmanship is against ‘normal
wear and tear' and the treatment the floor appears to have been subjected to does not fall into
this category. I am quite willing to arrange for the surface to be replaced, but we will have to
charge you for the materials and work involved. If I may, I would like to suggest that you instruct
your staff to use trolleys when shifting heavy containers.

Passage 1 (‫) الحرب العالمية الثانية قوتها التدميرية واثارها‬

(1) Modern wars bring death and destruction wherever they occur. Sophisticated weapons have
been developed that can wipe out a whole city. The most destructive war in history is World War
II, fought from 1939 to 1945. World War II involved gigantic struggles not only in Europe but in
Asia, Africa, and the Pacific as well. More than 25 million military personnel and 30 million civilians
were killed in the war. Its conduct strained the economic capabilities of the major nations and left
many countries on the edge of collapse. World War II cost more than any three previous wars
combined.
(2) Disasters continued even after the war ended. Damage to communication networks disrupted
the transport of raw materials and finished products. The irregularity of supplies to industry and
the destruction inflicted on the production apparatus resulted in a considerable number of
temporary layoffs. Even in the victorious countries. food rationing continued well after the end of
the war. Crime and law-breaking increased. The simultaneous reconstruction of accommodation,
industry and the transport infrastructure stifled national economies. Under these conditions,
people were first and foremost preoccupied with the restrictions affecting everyday life and often
had difficulty in thinking about their long-term future. The shortage of coal in the very hard winter
of 1946-1947 led to widespread strikes and mass demonstrations.

Passage 3 (‫)تغير عادات الغذاء عالميا وتأثير الاكل الغربي في اليابان والتشيك‬
(1) The growing similarities in diet and eating habits around the world are influencing people of
various cultures in different ways. For example, Western foods are damaging health in the
industrialized island country of Japan. Instead of small meals of seafood, rice, and vegetables, the
typical Japanese diet now includes large amounts of meat, dairy products like whole milk, ice
cream, etc.) and desserts like tiramisu, a rich Italian dessert full of chocolate, cheese, and sugar.
According to Japanese health researchers, such changes in eating habits are related to a great
increase in health problems such as heart disease, strokes, cancer, and diabetes.
(2) On the other hand, the changing global diet is having the opposite effect on the people in the
Czech Republic. The government of this European nation no longer supports meat and dairy
products financially. so the cost of these foods is going up. In contrast, fresh fruits and vegetables
are becoming more widely available from private markets and stands. Cooks are even serving
salads to schoolchildren, and families are eating more nutritious, home-cooked meals. For these
reasons. fewer Czech men are having heart attacks. the women are losing a lot of weight, and
most people are living healthier lives.
33. A good title for the passage would be ________ ...... ‫سيكون العنوان الجيد لهذه القطعه‬
A. Japan and the Czech Republic

Passage 4 A&B ‫نمط الشخصية‬


(1) Every person on this planet has a different and unique personality. However, each individual
personality can be placed into one of two groups: Type A or Type B. Let's take a look at what the
differences between these two personality types are.
(2) First let's start by understanding what each type means. The Type B personality is the norm. It's
the average person. They are usually calm and collected most of the time and it takes a lot to
irritate them. Needless to say, they are very seldom overstressed. When they do feel stress, they
tend to handle the pressure by being productive rather than destructive. Ordinarily, type B people
don't mind driving behind a slow car. They don't care too much if the line is long at the bank or
grocery store. Their pace in life is relaxed and they are not in a big hurry to get things done. It is
safe to categorize Type B personalities as being people who are patient with others as well as

81

‫ وإلا تتحمل المسئولية كاملة أمام الجهات المختصة‬0568955606 ‫هذه الملفات خاصة بأكاديمية عايد محمية بحقوق حفظ ونسخ فلا تحاول الحصول عليها بط ريقة غير شرعية إلا عن طريق‬

themselves in almost all situations - including work. Thus, a Type B personality may be perceived
to be somewhat relaxed and nonchalant regarding dedication to his occupation.
(3) The person who has a Type A personality, on the other hand, is like that person driving behind
you beeping and cursing because he thinks you should be driving faster. Type A personalities are
not the calmest of people and are rarely fully collected. Type A people get irritated much more
easily than type B people do. They become impatient when standing in a queue and tend to
always feel like they are in a hurry. These are the people you see tapping their foot when you are
in front of them in line. Type A people often live fast paced lives. They hate to waste time and
become angry when things slow them down.
(4) The hard-charging Type A personality, unlike the Type B personality, is undoubtedly dedicated
to his occupation. He is so dedicated, in fact, that more often than not he is a workaholic. “I'll sleep
when I'm dead" is most likely his reply to the one who expresses concern about the long hours he
spends at work. He is the kind of person who feels that time spent sleeping is time lost.
(5) Perhaps he should give heed to a recent British study. The 17-year study of 10.000 workers
showed that those who reduced their sleep from seven hours per night to five or less doubled
their risk of cardiovascular-related death. The researchers who conducted the study concluded
that a lack of sleep is linked to high blood pressure which in turn is a known risk factor for both
heart disease and stroke.
(6) Probably most of us fall somewhere in the middle and are a mixture of both the Type A
personality and the Type B personality. It may even be that at different points in our lives we
exhibit stronger characteristics of one or the other personality type. We should all take heed,
therefore, of the result of this study and aim for a balanced and healthy expenditure of energy
divided between our work and our play. As we achieve such a balance, we will naturally be inclined
to pay attention to the needs of our bodies for wasting time in both sleep and relaxation. Attaining
such a balance can make us aware, perhaps for the first time, of the joy of being fully human.
38. The word individual in Paragraph 1) is closest in meaning to ________.

Passage 9 (‫)الاجتماعات تنظيمها والتخطيط لها لتكون فعالة‬
Meetings can waste a great deal of time, but you can make your meeting run more smoothly by
following a few simple rules. First, have an agenda. This will help keep you focused on what is
important. Next, decide who needs to be involved. More people mean less efficient discussion.
Finally, keep the discussion moving. Thank each speaker as he or she finishes and move on to the
next speaker. This encourages people to make their remarks brief. And don't forget: what happens
after a meeting is more important than what happens during a meeting. The skills used then are
more professional and less procedural. So, no matter how well you run a meeting, it is the work
that gets done after the meeting that is important.

Passage 10 (‫) الراديو في السعودية بين الماضي والحاضر‬


(1) The history of radio in Saudi Arabia goes back to 1949 when the airwaves were filled with the
recitation of the Holy Qur'an that won the hearts of millions across the Kingdom. In the early
decades, expensive, large wooden box radios were confined to the elite. Later, more advanced
transistor radios reached the rest of the people. Today, in Saudi Arabia radio has been completely
transformed by the various private players that have entered the sector since the government
opened up licenses to them, creating more variety to add to the public stations. With the
introduction of social media, many broadcasters thought that the time for radio was over.

sheets of paper.
2) The first manmade writing material was not paper. About 4,000 years ago, the ancient
Egyptians took the fibrous stems of the papyrus plant, flattened them, laid them crosswise and
pressed them down to stick them together. When dried, this made a piece of papyrus that could
be written on.
3) Paper was first made in China around the year 105 CE by a man called Ts'ailun. He found a
way to make paper from the stringy inner bark of the mulberry tree. The bark was pounded in

water to separate the fibers. This mixture was then poured into a bamboo tray to let the water
drain out. After that, the soft mat of paper was moved onto a smooth, flat surface to dry. Later,
someone discovered that the paper could be improved by brushing it with starch to make it
stronger.
4) Chinese traders travelled around Asia as far as Samarkand. There, they met with Arab
merchants who learned the secret of making paper and took it to Spain. Afterwards, the art of
papermaking spread throughout the rest of Europe.
5) Since then, many kinds of machines have been invented and improved methods discovered
for making paper. One of the most important, for example, was a machine developed in France
in 1798. This machine could make a continuous sheet or web of paper. Before, paper could only
be produced in separate sheets.

Passage 8 ‫الأقمشة والخياطة‬


1) Imagine if you had to create your own fabric to make all of your clothes, bed linens, and other
furnishings. It would probably be very time-consuming and inconvenient. Modern, mechanized
textile making is something that most of us take for granted, as we have always been able to just
go to a store to purchase ready-made clothing and other necessities. Interestingly, despite
technological advances, the main methods of making fabric have actually remained quite similar
from ancient times until now.
2) Most fabrics are created by weaving long threads together, a technique which has changed very
little throughout history. Hand weaving is done on a frame or handloom, whereas mechanized
weaving is done on a power loom. The main distinction between hand weaving and mechanized
weaving is that the latter method allows huge quantities of good quality fabric to be produced
very quickly. further allowing the speedy.
3) Other methods of creating fabric include knitting ?? crocheting Knitting involves the use of
knitting needles that have several active loops of one or more strands of yarn waiting to
interlock with another loop. Crochet on the other hand, only involves one active loop on a
crochet hook at one time. Like weaving, knitting has been mechanized by a knitting machine,
allowing for the mass production of items requiring stretchy knit fabric, such as socks and
sweaters. Crochet, however, has never been mechanized, so any fabric that has been made by
crochet is always done by hand.
4) Despite technological advancements, there has always been a demand and appreciation for
items that have been made by hand. Some people enjoy knitting or crocheting as a relaxing

hobby or as a way to earn some extra money. Other people prefer the look and feel of a
handcrafted item to that of a machine-made one, and are often willing to pay a higher price for
something handmade. Often, handcrafted products like hand-woven rugs and hand-knitted
sweaters are of better quality and much more expensive than machine-made ones. As it may be
impractical for many of us to have every textile-based product we purchase be handmade, or to
make them ourselves, knowing how much time and effort that can go into creating textiles may
at least help us better appreciate all the fabrics we use every day.

Passage 1 Open- Source Software (‫)البرمجيات مفتوحة المصدر والمغلقة‬


(1) When the personal computer was first released, it did not serve any practical need.
Early computers were difficult to program and required great attention to detail. However,
many personal-computer enthusiasts immediately banded together to build applications
and solve problems. These computer enthusiasts were happy to share any programs they
built and solutions to problems they found; this collaboration enabled them to more quickly
innovate and fix problems.

(2) As software began to become a business, however, this idea of sharing everything
fell out of favor, at least with some. When a software program takes hundreds of man-
hours to develop, it is understandable that the programmers do not want to just give it
away. This led to a new business model of restrictive software licensing, which required
payment for software, a model that is still dominant today. This model is sometimes referred
to as closed source, as the source code is not made available to others.
(3) There are many, however, who feel that software should not be restricted. Just as with
those early hobbyists in the 1970s, they feel that innovation and progress can be made
much more rapidly if we share what we learn. In the 1990s, with Internet access connecting
more and more people together, the open source movement gained steam. Open-source
software is software that makes the source code available for anyone to copy and use. For
most of us, having access to the source code of a program does us little good, as we are
not programmers and won't be able to do much with it. The good news is that open-source
software is also available in a compiled format that we can simply download and install.

(4) The open-source software is superior to closed-source software. Because the source
code is freely available, many programmers have contributed to open-source software
projects, adding features and fixing bags. Many businesses are worried about open-source
software precisely because the code is available for anyone to sec. They feel that this
increases the risk of an attack. Others counter that this openness actually decreases the risk
because the code is exposed to thousands of programmers who can incorporate code
changes to quickly patch vulnerabilities. Firefox and Apache are two examples of open-
source software.

(5) There are many arguments on both sides of the aisle for the benefits of the two
models.
Some benefits of the open-source model are:
● The software is available for free. • The software source-code is available; it can be
examined and reviewed before it is installed.
● The large community of programmers who work on open-source projects leads to
quick bug fixing and feature additions.
Some benefits of the closed-source model are:
● By providing financial incentive for software development, some of the brightest
minds have chosen software development as a career.
● Technical support from the company that developed the software. 36 Information
Systems for Business and Beyond.

21. What helped open-source software gain steam?


‫ما الذي ساعد البرامج مفتوحة المصدر على اكتساب القوة؟‬
A. Internet access
B. cheap equipment
C. software licensing
D. Linux operating system

22. What is one benefit of open-source software? ‫ما هي إحدى فوائد البرامج مفتوحة‬
‫المصدر؟‬
A. It is quite cheap to buy.
B. It leads to quick bug-fixing.
C. It comes with technical support.
D. It is superior to closed-source software.

A. Technical support from the company.
B. The software is available for free.
C. Quick and better updates.
D. Access to the source code.

Passage 2 (‫)الموز المعدل الغني بفيتامين أ وإنقاذ أطفال افريقيا‬
GMO Bananas
(1) Each year, thousands of children in East Africa go blind or die because they don't get
enough vitamin A Now, with the support of the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation,
Ugandan, American and Australian researchers are trying to develop a potential fix: a
genetically modified banana that packs a significantly larger vitamin A punch.

(2) The bananas have already been successfully tested on gerbils. Researchers created
the new bananas by slightly tweaking its genome so that the fruit contains more alpha and
beta caroteno-plant-synthesized substances that animals convert into vitamin A The new
bananas have a slight orange shade but taste the same as non-genetically modified
bananas. Human trials just began in Iowa, and if they're successful, farmers in Uganda will
be growing the GMO bananas by 2020. About 70 percent of people there rely on bananas
as a major staple of their diets, so delivering the extra vitamin boost through the fruit should
be an effective means of helping to alleviate vitamin A deficiency. If the GM banana scheme
helps reduce death and blindness rates in Uganda, it could be transferred to other countries
or applied to other fruits, like plantains.

(3) Bananas are not the only food whose yield or nutritional profile could be improved
with genetic engineering. With climate change threatening to disrupt existing crops and
growing global populations demanding more of those supplies, genetic engineering could
be a solution for making the most of limited space and resources. Quite a number of foods
that fit this profile have already been created including virus resistant squash, and disease-
resistant potatoes.

Passage 3) (‫)منهجية البحث العلمي والملاحظة الكمية والكيفية‬
(1) Scientists search for answers to questions and solutions to problems by using a
procedure called the scientific method. This procedure consists of making observations,
formulating hypotheses, and designing experiments, which in turn lead to additional
observations, hypotheses, and experiments in repeated cycles.
(2) Observations can be qualitative or quantitative. Qualitative observations describe
properties or occurrences in ways that do not rely on numbers. Often, this data can be
collected through observation. Examples of qualitative observations include the following:
the outside air temperature is cooler during the winter season and table salt is a crystalline
solid.

(3) Quantitative observations are measurements, which by definition consist of both a


number and a unit. Examples of quantitative observations include the following the melting
point of crystalline sulfur is 115.21 degrees Celsius, and 35.9 grams of table salt whose
chemical name is sodium chloride dissolve in 100 grams of water at 20 degrees Celsius.

(4) After deciding to learn more about an observation or a set of observations, scientists
generally begin an investigation by forming a hypothesis, a tentative explanation for the
observations). The hypothesis may not be correct, but it puts the scientist's understanding
of the system being studied into a form that can be tested.

Passage 4 (‫ )اضطراب الوسواس القهري‬Obsessive Compulsive Disorder


(1) As with generalized anxiety and phobias, we can see aspects of our own behavior in
obsessive-compulsive disorder. We may at times be obsessed with senseless or offensive
thoughts that will not go away. Or we may engage in compulsive, rigid behavior -
rechecking a locked door, stepping over cracks in the sidewalk, or lining up our books and
pencils just so" before studying.
(2) Obsessive thoughts and compulsive behaviors cross the fine line between normality
and disorder when they become O persistent that they interfere with the way we live or
when they cause distress. Checking to see that the door is locked is normal; checking the
door 10 times is not. Hand washing is normal; hand washing so often that one's skin
becomes raw is not. At some time during their lives, often during their late teens or twenties,
2 to 3 percent of people cross that line from normal preoccupations and fussiness to
debilitating disorder. The obsessive thoughts become so haunting, the compulsive rituals
so senselessly time-consuming, that effective functioning becomes impossible.
(3) One much person was billionaire Howard Hughes. Hughes would compulsively
dictate the same phrases over and over again. Under stress, he developed an obsessive
fear of germs. He became reclusive and insisted that his assistants carry out elaborate hand
washing rituals and wear white gloves when handling documents he would later touch. He
ordered tape around doors and windows and forbade his staff to touch or even look at

Passage 5 ‫مقدمة في علم النفس‬


Introducing Psychology
(1) Psychology is the scientific study of mind and behavior. The word "psychology"
comes from the Greek words "psyche, meaning life, and "logos," meaning explanation.
Psychology is a popular major for students, a popular topic in the public media, and a part
of our everyday lives. Television shows often feature psychologists who provide personal
advice to those with personal or family difficulties. Crime dramas such as CSI, Lie to Me,
and others feature the work of forensic psychologists who use psychological principles to
help solve crimes. And many people have direct knowledge about psychology because they
have visited psychologists, for instance, school counselors, family therapists, and religious,
marriage, or bereavement counselors.
(2) Because we are frequently exposed to the work of psychologists in our everyday lives,
we all have an idea about what psychology is and what psychologists do. In many ways,
your conceptions are probably correct. Psychologists do work in forensic fields, and they
do provide counseling and therapy for people in distress. But there are hundreds of
thousands of psychologists in the world, and most of them work in other places, doing
work that you are probably now aware of.

(3) Most psychologists work in research laboratories, hospitals, and other field settings
where they study the behavior of humans and animals. For instance, experts in the
Psychology Department at the University of Maryland study such diverse topics as anxiety
in children, the interpretation of dreams, the effects of caffeine on thinking, how birds
recognize each other, how people from different cultures react differently in negotiation.
Psychologists also work in schools and businesses, and they use a variety of methods,
including observation, questionnaires, interviews, and laboratory studies, to help them
understand behavio

Passage 6 The Spinal Cord (‫)النخاع الشوكي‬


(1) The spinal cord is an information highway connecting the nervous system to the
brain. Ascending neural areas send up sensory information, and descending areas send
back motor-control information. A look at the neural pathways that control our reflexes,
our automatic responses to stimuli, shows the spinal cords work. A simple spinal-reflex path
is composed of a single sensory neuron and a single motor neuron, which often
communicate through an interneuron.
(2) One such path makes up the pain reflex. When your fingers touch a hot stove, neural
activity excited by the heat travels via sensory neurons to interneurons in your spinal cord.
These interneurons respond by activating motor neurons to the muscles in your arm,
causing you to jerk your hand away.
(3) Because the simple pain-reflex pathway runs through the spinal cord and out, you
jerk your hand from a candle's flame before your brain receives and responds to the
information that causes you to feel pain. Information travels to and from the brain by way
of the spinal cord. Were the top of your spinal cord severed, you would not feel such pain.
Or pleasure. Your brain would literally be out of touch with your body. Thus, you would
lose all sensation and voluntary movement in body regions whose sensory and motor
neurons connect with the spinal cord below its point of injury.

Passage 8) (‫) التنظيميات الهيكلية للمشاريع المختلفة‬Project organization
(1) There is no single organizational approach to projects. Each project is organized to
accomplish the work effectively and efficiently. Several factors influence the organizational
approach to execute a project. The complexity profile of a project, the culture of the parent
organization, the preferences of the project manager, the knowledge and skills of the team,
111
‫أكاديمية عايد للتدريب‬
‫ وإلا تتحمل المسئولية كاملة أمام الجهات المختصة‬0568955606 ‫هذه الملفات خاصة بأكاديمية عايد محمية بحقوق حفظ ونسخ فلا تحاول الحصول عليها بط ريقة غير شرعية إلا عن طريق‬

and a parent organization with a project management office are examples of factors that
influence the project's organization.
(2) In developing the project organizational structure, the project manager considers the
span of control for each manager. The span of control represents the number of people
reporting to a manager.
(3) Most projects have similar functions that are important to successfully managing the
project. Included among there are the following:

● Sponsor
● Project manager
● Controls
● Procurement
● Quality
● Administration
(4) On smaller projects, more than one function can be managed by one person. On
larger projects, large teams may be needed to accomplish the work within the function.
Project Sponsor
(5) The project sponsor is outside the day-to-day operations of the project and has the
organizational authority to provide resources and overcome barriers for the project. The
project sponsor is typically a leader in the parent organization with an interest in the
outcome of the project. As a leader in the parent organization, the project sponsor can
provide input into the project scope and other documents that define project success. The
guidance and support from the project sponsor enhance the ability of the project to
successfully meet the parent organization's objectives.

Project Manager
(6) Project managers often have the breadth of responsibility associated with corporate
chief executive officers CEOs). The project manager facilitates the start-up of a project and
develops the staff, resources, and work processes to accomplish the work of the project.
He or she manages the project effectively and efficiently and oversees the closeout phase.
Some projects are larger than major divisions of some organizations, with the project
manager responsible for a larger budget and managing more risk than most of the
organizational leaders. A mining company that builds a new mine in South Africa, an
automobile manufacturer that creates a new truck design, and a pharmaceutical company
112
‫أكاديمية عايد للتدريب‬
‫ وإلا تتحمل المسئولية كاملة أمام الجهات المختصة‬0568955606 ‫هذه الملفات خاصة بأكاديمية عايد محمية بحقوق حفظ ونسخ فلا تحاول الحصول عليها بط ريقة غير شرعية إلا عن طريق‬

that moves a new drug from testing to production are examples of projects that may
consume more resources in a given year than any of the organization's operating divisions.
(7) The function of the project manager can vary depending on the complexity profile
and the organizational structure. Defining and managing client expectations and start-up
activities, developing the scope, and managing change are functions of the project
manager. On some projects, the project manager may provide direction to the technical
team on the project. On other projects, the technical leadership might come from the
technical division of the parent organization

(8) Although the functional responsibilities of the project manager may vary, the primary
role is consistent on every project. The primary role of the project manager is to lead to
provide a vision of success, to connect everyone involved in the project to that vision, and
to provide the means and methods to achieve success. The project manager creates a goal-
directed and time focused project culture. The project manager provides leadership.

Project Procurement
(9) The approach to purchasing the supplies and equipment needed by the project is
related to the complexity profile of the project. A small project with a low complexity level
may be able to use the procurement services of the parent organization. In an organization
where project resources reside in various departments, the departments may provide the
supplies and equipment each team member of the project may need.
Project Quality
(10) Project quality is often part of the technical manager's responsibility. On large
projects or projects with a high degree of technical complexity, the quality is sometimes a
separate function reporting to the project manager. The project quality manager focuses
on the quality of the project work processes and not the quality of the client's product. For
example, if the project is to design and construct an automobile factory, the quality
manager focuses on the project work processes and meeting the technical specification of
the equipment installed by the project team. The project quality manager is not responsible
for the quality of the car the plant produces. If the plant functions to the defined project
specifications, the quality of the plant output is the responsibility of the plant quality
department, and it may take several months for the plant to refine the work processes to
meet the design specifications of the car.

Project Administration
(11) The administrative function provides project specific support such as the following:
● Accounting services
● Legal services
● Property management
● Human resources HR) management
● Other support functions found in most organizations
In most organizations, support for these functions is provided by the parent
organization. For example, people assigned to the project will get human
resources HR) support from the HR department of the parent organization.
Salary, benefits, and HR policies for employees assigned to the project will be
supported out of the HR department. The parent organization will provide
accounting functions such as determining the cost of cash, taxes, year-end
project reports, and property disposal at the end of the project.

Passage 9 (‫ ) قانون التعاقد‬Contract Law
Contract law is at the heart of almost every business transaction. Laws
regarding contracts, or agreements between parties, originated and developed
through English common law and are among the earliest laws created. Many
present-day rules are the same as they were years ago, although these laws
have been incorporated in both state and federal codes. In addition to these
well-established contract principles, modern business practices are governed
by laws that were designed to meet today's needs. In particular, contracts for

the sale of goods are governed by the Uniform Commercial Code and many
consumer contracts are governed by various consumer protection statutes.

Passage 10) (‫)الشركات وتمويل الأبحاث‬Company funded research

(1) A soda company sponsoring nutrition research. An oil company helping fund a
climate-related research meeting. Does the public care who's paying for science?
(2) In a word, yes. When industry funds science, credibility suffers. And this does not
bode well for the types of public-private research partnerships that appear to be becoming
more common as government funding for research and development reduces.
(3) The recurring topic of conflict of interest has made headlines in recent weeks. The
National Academies of Science, Engineering, and Medicine has revised its conflict-of-
interest guidelines following questions about whether members of a recent expert group
on GMO's had industry connections or other financial conflicts were not disclosed in the
panel's final report.
(4) This indicates how hard it may be for the public to see research as useful when
produced with an industry partner, even when that company is just one of several
collaborators.
What people think of funding sources.
(5) When a research team included an industry partner, the public were generally less
likely to think the scientists would consider a full range of evidence and listen to different
voices. An industry partner also reduced how much participants believed any resulting data
would provide meaningful guidance for making decisions.
115

(6) You may think that including a diverse array of partners in a research collaboration
might remove the negative perceptions that come with industry involvement. But, while
including scientists from a non-industry organization Particularly a nongovernmental
organization) made some difference, the effect was small. Adding a government partner
provided no real additional benefit.
(7) Participants who were asked to describe what they thought about the research
partnership in their own words said they were skeptical whether an industry partner could
ever be trusted to release information that might hurt its profits.
(8) Stories of Pharmaceutical companies conducting less than rigorous clinical trials for
the benefit of their marketing departments, or the tobacco industry steadfastly denying the
connection between smoking and cancer in the face of mounting evidence, help explain
public concern about industry-funded science.
55. How are the ideas that "not all evidence is considered" and "not all findings
are released" related? ‫كيف ترتبط أفكار "لا يتم النظر في كل الأدلة" و "لا يتم إصدار‬
‫جميع النتائج"؟‬
A. Both are part of the tobacco industry's research.
B. "Not all evidence is considered" is an example of “not all findings are released"
C. Both are examples of public opinion about the type of research.
D. One represents NGO research and the other company-funded research.
56. Which of the following is an opinion? ‫أي مما يلي رأي؟‬
A. They were Skeptical whether an industry partner could ever be trusted to release
information that might hurt its profits.
B. The National Academies of Science, Engineering and Medicine has revised its
conflict-of-interest guidelines.
C. An industry partner also reduced how much participants believed any resulting data
would provide meaningful guidance for making decisions.
D. Including scientists from a non-industry organization made some difference, but the
effect was small.
57. How is the public's view about funding science different from the industry's
view?
‫كيف تختلف وجهة نظر الجمهور حول تمويل العلوم عن وجهة نظر الصناعة؟‬
A. The public think that the industry should use their money to do more researches.
B. The public think that public-private research partnerships work well.
C. The public think that government research is less efficient.

Passage 1 (‫)مستقبل الاقتصاد العالمي للتجارة‬


The World Economic Outlook for Trade
(1) Although the global economy continued to grow robustly until 2007,
economic performance was not equal: growth in the advanced economies
slowed and then stopped in 2009, whereas emerging and developing
economies continued to grow. Looking ahead, the International Monetary
Fund (IMF), an international bank with 186 member nations, expected growth
to continue until 2020 in both advanced and emerging developing
economies.
(2) Although the U.S. economy had been growing steadily since 2000 and
recorded the longest peacetime expansion in the nation's history, the
worldwide recession which began in December 2007 slowed the rate of
growth. The IMF estimated that the U.S. economy grew by less than half of 1
percent in 2008 and, because of subprime mortgage lending and other
global financial problems, declined 2.5 percent in 2009. International experts
recorded global economic growth of 3.9 percent in 2010 and 4.3 percent in
2011, despite the high oil prices.
(3) Canada and Western Europe: America's leading export partner, Canada,
showed a growth rate of 2.6 percent in 2010 and 3.6 percent in 2011. The euro
area which declined by 3.9 percent in 2009, grew by 1.0 percent in 2010, and
by 1.6 percent in 2011. The United Kingdom and smalher European countries
such as Austria, the Netherlands, Sweden, and Switzerland, experienced a
recession.
(4) Mexico and Latin America: America's second largest export customer,
Mexico, suffered its sharpest recession ever in 1995, and experienced another
major setback in 2009. However, its growth rate in 2010 and 2011 was 4.0
percent and 4.7 percent. respectively. Brazil escaped the recent global
economic crisis with only minor setbacks: its growth in 2008 was more than 5
percent, and in 2009 it declined only 0.4 percent. In general, the Latin
American and the Caribbean economies are recovering at a robust pace.
(5) Japan: Japan's economy is regaining momentum. Stronger consumer
demand and business investment make Japan less reliant on exports for
118
‫أكاديمية عايد للتدريب‬
‫ وإلا تتحمل المسئولية كاملة أمام الجهات المختصة‬0568955606 ‫هذه الملفات خاصة بأكاديمية عايد محمية بحقوق حفظ ونسخ فلا تحاول الحصول عليها بط ريقة غير شرعية إلا عن طريق‬

growth. The IMF puts the growth for Japan at 1.7 percent in 2010 and 2.2
percent in 2011.
(6) Other Asian Countries: The economic growth in Asia remained strong in
2008 and 2009 despite the global recession. Growth was led by China, where
its economy expanded by 8.7 percent in 2009, and by at 10 percent and 9.7
percent in 2010 and 2011. respectively. Growth in India slowed modestly to 5.6
percent in 2009. Growth in Indonesia, Malaysia, the Philippines, Thailand, and
Vietnam was as expected at 4.7 percent and 5.3 percent in 2010 and 2011,
respectively. In short, the key emerging economies in Asia are leading the
global recovery. China's emergence as a global economic power has been
among the most dramatic economic developments of recent decades. From
1980 to 2004, China's economy averaged a real GDP growth rate of 9.5
percent and became the world' s sixth-largest economy. China's total share in
world trade expanded from 1 percent in 1980 to almost 6 percent in 2003. By
2004, China had become the third largest trading nation in dollar terms,
behind the United States and Germany and just ahead of Japan.

(7) Emerging Europe: The year 2007 marked the sixth consecutive year during
which emerging Europe grew much faster than Western Europe, but growth
in many countries was uneven. The global economic crisis that plagued this
region finally came to an end in 2009, and most countries in the region saw
positive growth in 2010 and 2011.
(8) Commonwealth of Independent States. The growth in this region turned
out to be the predicted 3.8 percent in 2010 and 4.0 percent in 2011. Strong
growth is expected to continue in Azerbaijan and Armenia. whereas growth is
projected to remain stable in Moldova, Tajikistan, and Uzbekistan. After World
War II, trade between the United States and the communist nations of Central
and Eastern Europe was minimal. The United States maintained high tariff
barriers on imports from most of these countries and also restricted their
exports. However, since the disintegration of the Soviet Union and the
collapse of communism, trade between the United States and Central and
Eastern Europe has expanded substantially. The countries that made the
transition from communist to market economies quickly have recorded
positive growth for several years. Among the nations that have enjoyed

Passage 2 (‫)تطور القانون‬
The Development of Law
(1) The origins and development of laws and legal systems are for the most
part based on the actions of government and religion. In many societies,
governments and religion are largely intertwined and their laws reflect this.
Because of differences in beliefs and values, laws vary widely from one society
to another. However, historically only two major types of legal systems
developed, civil law systems and common law. The term civil law as used to
describe a legal system refers to a system based primarily on written
constitutions and written laws or codes. In such legal systems, a ruler of
legislative body creates an extensive set of rules or regulations. to govern the
role of courts in such systems is limited. Common law systems, on the other
hand, are based on precedent or case law.
(2) Civil law jurisdictions, the more common in the world today, date back
thousands of years. One of the most famous examples was the Babylonian
Empire, a society ruled by a law known as the code of Hammurabi. The code
was named after the ruler of the time and dates back to approximately 1760
BCE.
(3) Common law systems are those based on the concept of precedent. In this
type of system, laws originate from decisions of courts rather than legislative
bodies. Originally decisions were based on tradition and custom but
eventually decisions were based on precedent. Precedent requires courts to
follow decisions of earlier courts. Common law originated with Medieval
England and is found in many countries once occupied by Great Britain.
26- What is one important idea that the writer mentioned?
‫ما هي إحدى الأفكار المهمة التي ذكرها الكاتب؟‬
(A) that Hammurabi created common law
(B) that civil law is more common than common law

Passage 3 (‫)جدار برلين‬


(1) At 1.05am on Sunday 13 August 1961, East German border guards and
army combat groups took up positions on the demarcation line at the
Brandenburg Gate in central Berlin. In a scene repeated along the border
dividing the two halves of the city, they ripped up the paving stones and
strained barbed wire between concrete posts. By early morning, only 12 of the
81 street crossing points were passable (that was soon cut to seven). This was
phase one of the Berlin Wall.

There is evidence that the building of the wall actually came as something of
a relief to the western powers; they had been expecting such a move and saw
it, if anything, as evidence that no imminent attempt was likely by the Soviet
Union and GDR to retake all Berlin; west Berlin, in other words, was safe.
(2) The German Democratic Republic (East Germany) had erected a barbed
wire border fence with the Federal Republic (West Germany) as early as 1952.
However, the border running through Berlin, controlled by all four post-war
occupying powers, remained largely open, turning the city into by far the
most important route for East Germans to flee the rigors of state socialism for
the "economic miracle" then underway in West Germany. By 1961, some 3.5
million East Germans (20% of the population) had left, many through Berlin.
(3) The wall slowed that emigration almost to a trickle. In the 28 years of its
existence some 5,000 people are thought to have successfully escaped across
the wall; the number who died in the attempt is disputed, although 136
deaths have been confirmed, the last being shot in February 1989.
(4) The barrier was 155km long, although the 112km separating west Berlin
from the GDR consisted mainly of wire fencing. What most of us think of as
the Berlin Wall was the 43km of border wall that divided west from east
Berlin. It grew into a vast fortification system featuring two concrete barriers,

along with floodlights, electric fences, vehicle trenches, dog patrols,

Passage 4 clay on Mars
(1) Today mars have only a thin atmosphere and its surface is very dry with
the possible exceptions of some localized and temporary water seeps.
However, ancient eroded valley networks that were discovered by orbiting
space. Craft in the early days of exploration prove that water flowed across
the surface in the remote past.
(2) The nature of the oldest valley, which have many tributaries, shows that
the water was most likely supplied by rainfall. This means the surface was very
likely habitable for life back then.
(3) When clay minerals were detected from orbit and subsequently confirmed
by surface ravers; it was taken as further evidence that mars once had a wet
surface environment, hospitable life. This is because when most rocky
minerals decay under humid conditions they rot to form various kinds of clay.
(4) Clay minerals cannot form unless there is water available, it is essential
ingredient in their microscopic crystalline structure. Clays are found virtually

nowhere and the red planet except in Mars most ancient terrains, dating back
to an period about 3.7-4.1 billion years ago, called the Noachian.
(5) On earth, clay forms by minerals grains that are chemically attacked by
water. Most scientists believe that a similar process took place on Mars during
its wet, Noachian period. However, some researchers have suggested that
most of the detected clay was not formed in this way at all. They argued
instead it formed prior to that, while warm water was circulating through the
bedrock in response to nearby volcanic and instructive activity.

Passage 5 Mapping the African Coast

(1) Prince Henry led the way in sponsoring exploration for Portugal, a small
nation next to Spain. First, Prince Henry's navigators discovered and claimed
the Madeira and Azores islands to the west and southwest of Portugal. By
1415, Portugal had expanded into Muslim North Africa, seizing the port of
Ceuta on the North African coast.

(2) Prince Henry saw great promise in Africa. The Portuguese could convert
Africans - most of whom practiced tribal religions - to Christianity. He also
believed that in Africa he would find the sources of riches the Muslim traders
controlled.

(3) Finally, Prince Henry hoped to find an easier way to reach Asia, which
meant going around Africa. The Portuguese felt that with their expert
knowledge and technology, they could accomplish this feat. At Sagres, in
southern Portugal. Henry gothered scientists, cartographers, or mapmakers,
and other experts. They redesigned ships, prepared maps, and trained
captains and crews for long voyages. Henry's ships then slowly worked their
way south to explore the western coast of Africa.

(4) Henry died in 1460, but the Portuguese continued their quest. In 1488.
Bartholomeu Dias rounded the southern tip of Africa. Despite the turbulent
seas around it, the tip became known as the Cape of Good Hope because it
opened the way for a sea route to Asia.

Model 17

Passage 1 (‫)الزيادة السكانية وتخطيط المدن‬


1) With the population explosion that began during the1700s and continued
through the 1800s, cities grew as rural people streamed into urban areas. This
rapid growth was not due to larger families. In fact, families in most
industrialized countries had fewer children. Instead, populations soared
because the death rate fell and nutrition improved, thanks in part to
improved methods of farming, food storage, and distribution. Medical
advances and improvements in public sanitation also slowed death rates.
2) Since the 1600s, scientists had known of microscopic organisms, or
microbes. Some scientists speculated that certain microbes might cause
specific infectious diseases. Yet most doctors dismissed this germ theory. Not
until 1870 did French chemist Louis Pasteur clearly show the link between
microbes and disease. Pasteur went on to make other major contributions to
medicine, including the development of vaccine. He also
discovered a process called pasteurization that killed disease-carrying
microbes in milk. Also, in the 1880s. the German doctor Robert Koch identified
the bacterium that caused tuberculosis, a respiratory disease that claimed
about 30 million human lives in the 1800s.
3) These successes brought about a soaring population and changed the face
of cities forever with some undergoing rapid development. Together with
growing wealth and industrialization, this altered the basic layout of European
cities. City planners created spacious new squares and boulevards. They lined
these avenues with government buildings, offices, department stores and
theaters. The most extensive urban renewal, or rebuilding of the poor areas of
a city, took place in Paris in the 1850s. Georges Haussmann, chief planner for
Napoleon III, destroyed many narrow medieval streets full of poor housing. In
their place, he built wide boulevards and grand public buildings. The project
put many people to work, decreasing the threat of social unrest. The wide
boulevards also made it harder for rebels to put up barricades and easier for
troops to reach any part of the city.
131

4) Further improvements followed, with paved streets making urban areas


much more livable. First, as lamps, and then electric street lights illuminated
the night, increasing safety.
5) Beneath the streets, sewage systems make cities a much healthier place to
live. City planners knew that clean water supplies and better sanitation
methods were needed to combat epidemics of cholera and tuberculosis. In
Paris, sewer lines expanded from 139 kilometers in 1852 to more than 1200
kilometers by 1911. The massive new sewer systems of London and Paris were
costly, but they cut death rates dramatically.
6) By 1900, architects were using steel to construct tall buildings. American
architects like Louis Sullivan pioneered a new structure, the skyscraper. In
large cities, single-family middle-class homes gave way to multistory
apartment buildings.
7) Despite these efforts to improve cities, urban life remained harsh for the
poor. Some working-class families could afford better clothing, newspapers
or tickets to a music hall. But they went home to small row houses in
overcrowded neighborhoods.

8) In the worst areas, whole families were often crammed into a single room.
Unemployment or sickness meant lost wages that could ruin a family. High
rates of crime were a constant curse. Conditions had improved somewhat
from the early days of the Industrial Revolution, but slums remained a fact of
city life.
9) Despite their drawbacks, cities attracted millions. New residents were
drawn as much by the excitement as by the opportunity for work. For tourists
too, cities were centers of action. Music halls, opera houses and theaters
provided entertainment for every taste. Museums and libraries offered
educational opportunities. Sports, from tennis to boxing drew citizens of all
classes. Few of these enjoyments were available in country villages.

Passage 2 (‫)الروايات والقصص القصيرة‬


1) Narratives are stories - something you hear and tell every day - Some are true:
they're a way to share the events of your latest experiences, and they're a way to
reveal the events in the world. These stories are nonfiction. But not all stories
have to be true. When the stories are made up, they are called fiction, and they
can take on a life of their own. You see, hear, and imagine fictional stories when
you watch television sitcoms, read novels, or daydream about becoming a movie
star.
One kind of imaginative narration is the short story - a written piece of fiction
that follows specific rules and has its own unique characteristics.
2) A short story is a brief fictional narrative that combines elements to create
a world that attracts the reader's attention and interest. An effective short
story:
• uses details to create a setting of time and place in the reader's mind.
• presents a main character who takes part in the action.
• introduces and develops a conflict, or a problem, to be resolved.

• suggests a theme or generalization about life.


3) Short stories, as well as other forms of fiction, may be categorized
according to the types of setting or conflict they present. Here are a few
examples of types of short stories:
• Mysteries - present a story with important missing information, which is
revealed as the plot unfolds.
• Westerns - usually focus on a specific combination of character, setting, and
time: cowboys in the western parts of the United States in the second half of
the nineteenth century.
• Thrillers - create a high level of tension by introducing danger in the conflict
they present.
25. What is the writer's main purpose? ‫ما هو الغرض الرئيسي للكاتب؟‬
A- to inspire.
B- to persuade.
C- to inform.
D- to argue.

A- The characteristics of a well-written short story.
B- That short story can take place in the past or present.
C- Conflicts and problems in short stories.
D- That a good short story is very difficult to write.

Passage 3 (‫)المحميات ومواطن عيش الحيوانات‬


Animal Habitats
1) Humans are not the only species on Earth capable of building extraordinary
structures. The natural world is in fact full of ingenious animals that can
achieve just as impressive feats of engineering.
2) Building behavior is common in mammals, birds, insects and arachnids.
Many animals learn to build by observation and even through
communication. However, in some cases building is thought to be instinctive.
3) Animals will often construct their own habitats for shelter against potential
predators and the outside elements. Many dwellings are also built for nesting
purposes and to catch, store and even cultivate food.
134
‫أكاديمية عايد للتدريب‬
‫ وإلا تتحمل المسئولية كاملة أمام الجهات المختصة‬0568955606 ‫هذه الملفات خاصة بأكاديمية عايد محمية بحقوق حفظ ونسخ فلا تحاول الحصول عليها بط ريقة غير شرعية إلا عن طريق‬

4) Animal architecture can also be quite sophisticated; with many structures


incorporating clever ventilation systems for temperature control, and even
secure entry and exit points to keep unwanted visitors away.
5) Complex builds are often undertaken as a group, which helps speed up
construction time. Take for example the humble ant. An army of ants can
move up to 50 tons of soil per year in just 2.6 square kilometers. A single ant
is capable of carrying up to 50 times its own weight, so working together as a
colony means they're able to accomplish impressive feats. In fact, within a
week, a large army of garden ants can construct an underground city big
enough to house thousands of insects.
6) Established deep underground, ant nests are made up of multiple
chambers and connecting tunnels. Each chamber has a different use; some
store food while others are used as nurseries for the young and resting
spaces for busy worker ants and the deepest central chamber is where the
queen ant lays her eggs.
27. What does Paragraph 1) say about the natural world?
‫) عن العالم الطبيعي؟‬1( ‫ماذا يقول البرقراف‬

Passage 4 (‫برامج العمل الإيجابي وتأثيرها على الشركات والموظفين) على‬


Affirmative Action
1) An affirmative action program is a plan designed to increase the number of
minority employees at all levels within an organization. Employers with
federal contracts of more than $50,000 per year must have written affirmative
action plans. The objective of such programs is to ensure that minorities are
represented within the organization in approximately the same proportion as
in the surrounding community. If 25 percent of the electricians in a
geographic area in which a company is located are African-Americans, then
approximately 25 percent of the electricians it employs also should be
African-Americans.
2) Unfortunately, affirmative action programs have been plagued by two
problems. The first involves quotas. In the beginning, many firms pledged to
recruit and hire a certain number of minority members by a specific date. To
achieve this goal, they were forced to consider only minority applicants for
job openings. However, the courts have ruled that such quotas are
136
‫أكاديمية عايد للتدريب‬
‫ وإلا تتحمل المسئولية كاملة أمام الجهات المختصة‬0568955606 ‫هذه الملفات خاصة بأكاديمية عايد محمية بحقوق حفظ ونسخ فلا تحاول الحصول عليها بط ريقة غير شرعية إلا عن طريق‬

unconstitutional even though their purpose is commendable. They are, in fact


a form of discrimination called reverse discrimination.
3) The second problem is that although most such programs have been
reasonably successful, not all businesspeople are in favor of affirmative action
programs. Managers not committed to these programs can «play the game»
and still discriminate against workers. To help solve this problem, Congress
created a government agency with the power to investigate complaints of
employment discrimination and sue firms that practice it.
4) The threat of legal action has persuaded some corporations to amend their
hiring and promotional policies, but the discrepancy between men's and
women's salaries still exists. For more than 50 years, women have consistently
earned only about 77 cents for each dollar earned by men.
32. What is one important idea that the writer mentions about quotas in
Paragraph 2)?

36. What is the main topic of the passage? ‫ما هو الموضوع الرئيسي للمقطع؟‬
A- The effect of affirmative action programs.
B- The importance of geography at work.
C- The role of the court in government.
D- The reason women are paid less than men.

Passage 5 (‫)التغيرات في الزراعة‬


Changes in Agriculture
1) Between 1950 and 1970, a world-wide effort to combat hunger and
malnutrition led to dramatic improvements in farming techniques and crop
yields. This effort came to be called the green revolution because it greatly
increased the world's food supply. Green revolution technologies enabled
many countries to end chronic food shortages and, in some cases, become
exporters of surplus food.
2) At the heart of the green revolution was the use of high-yield varieties of
seed and fertilizer. For thousands of years, farmers have added essential
nutrients in the form of natural fertilizers such as animal manure. While some
farmers today still use these traditional methods, many farmers use artificial
fertilizers.
3) Fertilizers are labeled with three numbers that reflect the percentage by
weight of three elements: nitrogen N), phosphorus P), and potassium K). A
bag of garden fertilizer labeled «20-10-5» is 20 percent nitrogen, 10 percent
phosphorus, and 5 percent potassium by weight.

4) Fertilizers and pesticides must be used with great care. Over fertilizing can
kill crop plants by putting too high a concentration of salts into the soil. The
intensive use of fertilizers can also affect the groundwater. When large
amounts of nitrogen and phosphate-containing fertilizer are used near
wetlands and streams, runoff from the fields may contaminate the water.
Pesticides can also pose a health risk.
Chemical pesticides are poisons, and they have the potential to harm wildlife
and leave dangerous chemical residues in food.

Passage 6 (‫)التشريح واستكشاف الجسم البشري‬
Exploring the Human Body
1) Medieval physicians relied on the works of the ancient physician Galen.
Galen, however, had made many errors, in part because he had limited
knowledge of human anatomy. During the Renaissance, physicians made new
efforts to study the human body. In 1543, Andreas Vesalius published ``The
Structure of the Human Body, the first accurate and detailed study of human
anatomy. Vesalius used whatever means he could to increase his knowledge
of anatomy. He used friendships with people of influence to get invitations to
autopsies. He also autopsied bodies that he himself obtained - counting on
friends in the local government to look the other way.
2) In the early 1540s, French physician Ambroise Paré developed a new and
more effective ointment for preventing infection. He also developed new
surgical techniques, introduced the use of artificial limbs, and invented several
scientific instruments. Then in the early 1600s, William Harvey, an English
scholar, described the circulation of the blood for the first time. He showed
how the heart serves as a pump to force blood through veins and arteries.
Later in the century, the Dutch inventor Anton van Leeuwenhoek perfected
the microscope and became the first human to see cells and microorganisms.
These pioneering scientists opened the way for further discoveries.
42. What was the main reason Galen made mistakes in his writing?
‫ما هو السبب الرئيسي وراء أخطاء جالينوس في كتابته؟‬
A- He only studied the anatomy of animals.
B- He copied the work of ancient physicians.
C- He made little effort to study human anatomy.

Passage 7 (‫)قياس الأداء الاقتصادي‬


Measuring Economic Performance
(1) Today, it is hard to turn on the radio, watch the news on television, use the
Internet, or read the newspaper without hearing or seeing something about
the economy. Consider for just a moment the following questions:
• Are U.S. workers as productive as workers in other countries?
• Is the gross domestic product for the United States increasing or
decreasing?
• What is the current balance of trade for the United States?
• Why is the unemployment rate important?
(2) The information needed to answer these questions, along with the
answers to other similar questions, is easily obtainable from many sources.
More important, the answers to these and other questions can be used to
gauge the economic health of a nation. For individuals, the health of the
nation's economy often affects the amount of interest you pay for homes,
automobiles, credit card purchases, and other credit transactions. Finally, the
health of the economy can also affect your ability to get a job or the financing
you need to continue your education.
The Importance of Productivity in the Global Marketplace
(3) One way to measure a nation's economic performance is to assess its
productivity. Productivity is the average level of output per worker per hour.
An increase in productivity results in economic growth because a larger
number of goods and services are produced by a given labor force.
(4) In addition to productivity, a measure called gross domestic product can
be used to measure the economic well-being of a nation. Gross domestic
product (GDP) is the total dollar value of all goods and services produced by
all people within the boundaries of a country during a one-year period. For
example, the values of automobiles produced by employees in an American-
owned General Motors plant and a Japanese-owned Toyota plant in the

142
‫أكاديمية عايد للتدريب‬
‫ وإلا تتحمل المسئولية كاملة أمام الجهات المختصة‬0568955606 ‫هذه الملفات خاصة بأكاديمية عايد محمية بحقوق حفظ ونسخ فلا تحاول الحصول عليها بط ريقة غير شرعية إلا عن طريق‬

United States are both included in the GDP for the United States. The U.S.
GDP was $14.3 trillion in 2009.

(5) The GDP figure facilitates comparisons between the United States and
other countries because it is the standard used in international guidelines for
economic accounting. It is also possible to compare the GDP for one nation
over several different time periods. This comparison allows observers to
determine the extent to which a nation is experiencing economic growth. For
example, government experts project that GDP will grow to $21.8 trillion by
the year 2018.
(6) To make accurate comparisons of the GDP for different years, we must
adjust the dollar amounts for inflation. Inflation is a general rise in the level of
prices. Deflation is a general decrease in the level of prices. By using inflation-
adjusted figures, we are able to measure the real GDP for a nation. In effect, it
is now possible to compare the products and services produced by a nation
in constant dollars-dollars that will purchase the same amount of goods and
services.
(7) In addition to GDP and real GDP, other economic measures exist that can
be used to evaluate a nation's economy. Because of the recent economic
crisis, one very important statistic that is in the news on a regular basis is the
unemployment rate: The unemployment rate is the percentage of a nation's
labor force unemployed at any time. According to the Bureau of Labor
Statistics, when workers are unemployed, they, their families, and the country
as a whole lose. Workers and their families lose wages, and the country loses
the goods or services that could have been produced. In addition, the
purchasing power of the workers is lost, which can lead to unemployment for
yet other workers. Despite both federal and state programs to reduce the
unemployment rate for the United States, it was hovering around 10 percent
at the time of publication. This is an especially important statistic – especially
if you are unemployed. The consumer price index (CPI) is a monthly index

143
‫أكاديمية عايد للتدريب‬
‫ وإلا تتحمل المسئولية كاملة أمام الجهات المختصة‬0568955606 ‫هذه الملفات خاصة بأكاديمية عايد محمية بحقوق حفظ ونسخ فلا تحاول الحصول عليها بط ريقة غير شرعية إلا عن طريق‬

that measures the changes in prices of a fixed basket of goods purchased by


a typical consumer in an urban area. Goods listed in the CPI include food and
beverages, transportation, housing, clothing, medical care, recreation,
education, communication, and other goods and services. Economists often
use the CPI to determine the effect of inflation on not only the nation's
economy but also individual consumers. Another monthly index is the
producer price index (PPI). The PPI measures prices that producers receive for
their finished goods. Because changes in the reflect price increases or
decreases at the wholesale level, the PPI is an accurate predictor of both
changes in the CPI and prices that consumers will pay for many everyday
necessities.
48. What goods and services do people pay interest on?
A- homes and automobiles.
B- homes and medical care.
C- medical care and education.
D- recreation and communication.

Passage 7 (‫)أنواع المؤسسات بين بيزنس ومؤسسات غير ربحية وطرق ادارتها‬
Corporations
1) Corporations are organizations that are created by following statutory
guidelines enacted by the state. Once incorporated, these organizations,
unlike a partnership, have a separate legal existence. A corporation is
sometimes referred to as an artificial person and even has some constitutional
rights. Corporations can be formed for many different purposes. The two
main types of corporations are business corporations and nonprofit
corporations. Business corporations are formed for a business purpose-that
is, to engage in a business for the purpose of making a profit that can be
distributed to the owners of the corporation. A nonprofit corporation is
formed to serve some public purpose-often charitable, religious: or
educational. Although nonprofit corporations sometimes generate income,

144
‫أكاديمية عايد للتدريب‬
‫ وإلا تتحمل المسئولية كاملة أمام الجهات المختصة‬0568955606 ‫هذه الملفات خاصة بأكاديمية عايد محمية بحقوق حفظ ونسخ فلا تحاول الحصول عليها بط ريقة غير شرعية إلا عن طريق‬

this income is not distributed to individual owners. It is used by the


corporation for its stated purpose.
Business Corporations
1) A business corporation is a legal entity separate from its owners. Its legal
existence does not depend on the life of its owners, and the corporation is
liable for its own debts and pays its own taxes. A corporation is formed by
complying with statutory requirements. Business corporations come in all
sizes. Some may.
2) A business corporation is a legal entity separate from its owners. Its legal
existence does not depend on the life of its owners, and the corporation is
liable for its own debts and pays its own taxes. A corporation is formed by
complying with statutory requirements. Business corporations come in all
sizes. Some may have only one owner or shareholder; others have thousands.
Regardless of the size, however, certain characteristics are the same. All
corporations are formed by filing a document known as articles or certificates
of incorporation with the secretary of state of some state. Usually this is the
state in which the business is primarily operating, but it need not be.
Articles or certificates of incorporation give the corporation its legal existence.
This usually very simple document describes the name and general powers of
the business. Businesses can incorporate in one state and do business as a
corporation in other states. There may be documents they must file in these
states to qualify to do business, but they need to incorporate in only one
state. When a corporation does this, it is said to be qualified as a foreign
corporation. A foreign corporation is one that does business within a state
but is not incorporated within that state.
3) Corporations are governed by a set of rules or policies known as bylaws.
Bylaws are the internal regulations for the corporation. They describe such
things as the powers of the corporation and the duties and responsibilities of
the directors and officers. Bylaws are kept at the corporate office; they are not
filed with any government agency.
4) Three groups play an important role in all corporations:

145
‫أكاديمية عايد للتدريب‬
‫ وإلا تتحمل المسئولية كاملة أمام الجهات المختصة‬0568955606 ‫هذه الملفات خاصة بأكاديمية عايد محمية بحقوق حفظ ونسخ فلا تحاول الحصول عليها بط ريقة غير شرعية إلا عن طريق‬

shareholders, directors, and officers. Shareholders are the owners of the


business. They usually have invested money, property, or services in the
business and in return they share in profits that the business makes. Profits
are usually distributed to the shareholders in the form of dividends. When
shareholders invest in the business, they purchase a security. Even though
shareholders are the owners of the business, unlike other forms of business,
these owners do not directly manage and operate the business. Their power
is usually limited to electing the directors, although they do have the right to
approve certain types of business decisions made by the directors.
Shareholders are usually required to meet at least once a year and hold a
regular meeting. Minutes of these meetings are prepared.
5) Directors or the board of directors have general management power over
the corporation. They are responsible for setting general business policies.
Directors are sometimes also shareholders. This is especially true of
corporations that have only a few shareholders. Like shareholders, the
directors are required to hold a regular meeting at least once a year. They are
also allowed to hold special meetings whenever necessary. Written minutes
are always kept. Directors are not responsible for the day-to-day operation of
the business; day-to-day management is the responsibility of the officers of
the corporation. The officers are chosen by the directors.
6) Corporations have various officers. The traditional officers are president,
vice president, secretary, and treasurer. Today the president and treasurer are
usually referred to as the chief executive officer CEO) and the chief financial
officer CFO), respectively. In smaller corporations, the officers of the
corporation are also shareholders and directors.
7) Directors and officers of corporations owe legal duties to the corporations
they represent. However, courts recognize that if directors and officers are
constantly threatened with lawsuits whenever a business suffers a loss,
business will be seriously hindered. In assessing whether directors or officers
have breached their duties and are liable for corporate losses, the courts have
adopted an «independent business judgment» rule. Under this rule a court

146
‫أكاديمية عايد للتدريب‬
‫ وإلا تتحمل المسئولية كاملة أمام الجهات المختصة‬0568955606 ‫هذه الملفات خاصة بأكاديمية عايد محمية بحقوق حفظ ونسخ فلا تحاول الحصول عليها بط ريقة غير شرعية إلا عن طريق‬

will not second-guess the business judgment of directors or officers absent


some extraordinary situations. The rule creates a presumption that the
directors or officers have not violated their legal duties. This presumption,
however, can be overcome if a party can show that the director or officer did
not act in good faith or that there is no rational explanation for the
questionable action.
49. What are the two main types of corporations? ‫ما هما النوعان الرئيسيان‬
‫للشركات؟‬
A- non-profit and charitable corporations.
B- non-profit and business corporations.
C- business and charitable corporations.
D- profit and educational corporations.
50. Which people must meet at least once a year?
‫من هم الأشخاص الذين يجب أن يجتمعوا مرة واحدة على الأقل في السنة؟‬
A- the CEO and CFO.
B- directors and officers.
C- shareholders and officers.
D- shareholders and directors.

Passage 8 (‫)التفاعلات الكيميائية‬


Chemical Reactions
1) Decomposition of compounds into elements and the combination of
elements to make compounds are examples of chemical processes. Using the
atomic theory, such processes are seen as changes in the combinations of
atoms. Such transformations are called chemical reactions. The term reaction
means to produce a result. A chemical reaction is a process in which one set
of chemicals is mixed and transformed into a new set of chemicals. When
charcoal, which is mostly elemental carbon, burns in air, the process is
envisioned as carbon atoms combining with diatomic oxygen molecules to
produce molecules of carbon dioxide gas.
2) As mentioned above, the law of conservation of matter expresses that
atoms are not created or destroyed in chemical processes. In other words,

147
‫أكاديمية عايد للتدريب‬
‫ وإلا تتحمل المسئولية كاملة أمام الجهات المختصة‬0568955606 ‫هذه الملفات خاصة بأكاديمية عايد محمية بحقوق حفظ ونسخ فلا تحاول الحصول عليها بط ريقة غير شرعية إلا عن طريق‬

atoms are conserved in chemical reactions. A reaction is a special process in


which certain chemical combinations of atoms transform into new
combinations of atoms. In a reaction, the total atom count does not change.
Thus, destroying matter by chemical reactions is not possible.
51. The word theory in paragraph 1) is closest in meaning to………
.......... ‫) هي الأقرب من حيث المعنى ل‬1 ‫كلمة "نظرية" في البرقراف‬
A- idea.
B- style.

....... ‫) هي الأقرب من حيث المعنى ل‬2 ‫"يعبر" في البرقراف‬
ٌ ‫كلمة‬
A- checks.
B- approves.
C- buys.
D- explains.

Passage 9 (‫)مخاطر السفر جوا وطريقة حساب ذلك وفقا للمعدلات المختلفة‬
1) There's a lot more to trying to evaluate whether a particular risk is big or
small than you might think. Flying in airplanes is a case in point.
2) You'd think that you could determine the numbers and the odds and that
would be it. The annual risk of being killed in a plane crash for the average
American is about 1 in 11 million. On that basis, the risk looks pretty small.
Compare that, for example, to the annual risk of being killed in a motor
vehicle crash for the average American, which is about 1 in 5,000.
3) But if you think about those numbers, problems occur right away. Some
people fly more and some fly less and some don't fly at all. So if you take the
total number of people killed in commercial plane crashes and divide that
into the total population, the result, the risk for the average American, may be
a good general guide to whether the risk is big or small, but it's not specific
to your personal risk.
4) Then there is another numbers problem: You can calculate the risk of flying
by dividing the number:
148
‫أكاديمية عايد للتدريب‬
‫ وإلا تتحمل المسئولية كاملة أمام الجهات المختصة‬0568955606 ‫هذه الملفات خاصة بأكاديمية عايد محمية بحقوق حفظ ونسخ فلا تحاول الحصول عليها بط ريقة غير شرعية إلا عن طريق‬

1. Of people who die into the total number of people, which gives you the risk
for the average person;
2. Of victims into the number of total flights all passengers took, which gives
the risk per flight; and some don't fly at all. So if you take the total number of
people killed in commercial plane crashes and divide that into the total
population, the result, the risk for the average American, may be a good
general guide to whether the risk is big or small, but it's not specific to your
personal risk.
4) Then there's another numbers problem: You can calculate the risk of flying
by dividing the number:
1. Of people who die into the total number of people, which gives you the risk
for the average person;
2. Of victims into the number of total flights all passengers took, which gives
the risk per flight;
3. Of victims into the total number of miles all of them flew, which gives you
the risk per mile.
5) They all produce accurate numbers, but which one is most relevant to you
depends on your personal flying patterns. Some fliers take lots of short flights
and some take longer ones. Since the overwhelming majority of the few plane
crashes that do occur take place in connection with takeoffs and landings, the
risk is less a matter of how far you fly and more a matter of how often. If you
are a frequent flier, then the risk per flight means more. For occasional long-
distance fliers, the risk per mile means more. A frequent, long-distance flier
would want to consider both.
53. What are two words the writer uses to mean «judge»?
‫ما الكلمتان اللتان يستخدمهما الكاتب ليعني «يحكم»؟‬
A- think / divide.
B- find out / take.
C- evaluate / consider.

A- They happen during takeoff and landing.
B- They happen during takeoff and mid-flight.
C- They happen mid-flight and during landing.
D- They happen during medium- and long -distance flights.
57. What can we understand from the passage about airplane crashes?

B- the risk of crashing is smallest for the average American.
C- the risk of being killed is biggest in commercial plane crashes.
D- the risk of crashing is biggest for frequent, long-distance fliers.

Passage 10 (‫)التذوق والشم‬


Passage A: Taste
1) Our sense of taste involves four basic sensations - sweet, sour, salty, and
bitter. All other tastes are mixtures of these. Investigators have, however,
been frustrated in their search for specialized nerve fibers for each of the four
basic taste sensations.
2) Taste is a chemical sense. Inside the little bumps on the top and sides of
your tongue are 200 or more taste buds. Each contains a pore that catches
food chemicals. These molecules are sensed by 50 taste receptor cells that
project antenna-like hairs into the pore. Some of these receptors respond

150
‫أكاديمية عايد للتدريب‬
‫ وإلا تتحمل المسئولية كاملة أمام الجهات المختصة‬0568955606 ‫هذه الملفات خاصة بأكاديمية عايد محمية بحقوق حفظ ونسخ فلا تحاول الحصول عليها بط ريقة غير شرعية إلا عن طريق‬

mostly to sweet-tasting molecules, others to salty, sour, or bitter - tasting


ones.

3) Although taste buds are essential for taste, there is more to taste than
meets the tongue. Hold your nose, close your eyes, and have someone feed
you various foods. A piece of apple may then be indistinguishable from a
piece of raw potato; a piece of steak may taste like cardboard. To savor a
taste, we normally breathe the aroma through our nose-which is why eating
is not much fun when you have a bad cold, and why people who lose their
sense of smell may think they have also lost their sense of taste. Smell not
only adds to our perception of taste, it also changes it. A drink's strawberry
odor enhances our perception of its sweetness. This is sensory interaction at
work, the principle that one sense may influence another. Smell plus taste
equals flavor.

Passage B: Smell
1) Breaths come in pairs-inhale, exhale-except at two moments: birth and
death. Each day, as you inhale and exhale nearly 20,000 breaths of life
sustaining air, you bathe your nostrils in a stream of molecules full of scents.
2) Like taste, smell is a chemical sense. We smell something when air-carried
molecules of a substance reach a tiny cluster of 5 million receptor cells at the
top of each nasal cavity. These olfactory receptor cells respond selectively to
the aroma of cake baking, to a wisp of smoke, to a friend's fragrance, and
they instantly alert the brain through their axon fibers.
3) Even nursing infants and mothers have a literal chemistry to their
relationship, as they quickly learn to recognize each other's scents. Aided by
smell, a mother fur seal returning to a beach crowded with pups will find her
own. Our own sense of smell is less impressive than the acuteness of our
seeing and hearing. Looking out across a garden we see its forms and colors
in exquisite detail and hear its singing birds, yet smell little of it without
jamming our nose into the flowers.
4) Precisely how olfactory receptors work is a mystery. Unlike light, which can
be separated into its spectral colors, an odor cannot be separated into more
elemental odors. Thus, the olfaction system has no parallel to the retina,
151
‫أكاديمية عايد للتدريب‬
‫ وإلا تتحمل المسئولية كاملة أمام الجهات المختصة‬0568955606 ‫هذه الملفات خاصة بأكاديمية عايد محمية بحقوق حفظ ونسخ فلا تحاول الحصول عليها بط ريقة غير شرعية إلا عن طريق‬

which detects myriad colors with sensory cells dedicated to red, green, or
blue. Olfactory receptors recognize odors individually.
58. What can we understand from Passages A and B about both taste and
smell?
‫ما الذي يمكن أن نفهمه من القطعتين (أ) و (ب) حول كل من الطعم والرائحة؟‬
A- They are more impressive than hearing.
B- They both involve the use of receptor cells.
C- They both involve olfactory receptor systems.
D- They both enhance the work of our other senses.
59. What do the passages say about the receptor cells involved in taste and
smell?
‫ماذا تقول المقاطع عن الخلايا المستقبلة المشاركة في الذوق والشم؟‬
A- Taste and smell require the use of at least 50 receptors.
B- Taste and smell involve the use of 5 million receptor cells.
C- Both the nose and the tongue have the same number of receptor cells.
D- The receptor cells involved in smell are a lot more than those involved in
taste.
60. According to the passages, why are taste and smell important for us to
enjoy food?

Model 18
Passage 1 (‫تطور التعليم الحكومي‬
Growth of Public Education
(1) By the early 1800s, reformers persuaded many governments to set up
public schools and require basic education for all children. Teaching «the
three Rs» – reading, writing and arithmetic – was thought to produce better
citizens. In addition, industrialized societies recognized the need for a literate
workforce. Schools taught punctuality, obedience to authority. disciplined
work habits, and patriotism. In European schools. children also received basic
religious education.
Public Education Improves
(2) At first, elementary schools were primitive. Many teachers had little
schooling themselves. In rural areas, students attended schools only during
the times when they were not needed on the farm or in their parents' shops.
(3) By the late 1880s, more and more children were in school, and the quality
of elementary education improved. Teachers received training at Normal here
the latest 'norms and standards' of educational practices were taught.
Beginning in 1879, schools to train teachers were established in France. In
England, schooling girls and boys between the ages of five and ten became
compulsory after 1881. Also, governments began to expand secondary
schools, known as high schools in the United States. In secondary school,
students learned the classical languages Latin and Greek, along with history
and mathematics.
(4) In general, only middle-class families could afford to have their sons
attend these schools, which trained students for more serious study or for
government jobs. Middle-class girls were sent to school primarily in the hope
that they might marry well and become better wives and mothers. Education
for girls did not include subjects such as science, mathematics. Or physical
education because they were not seen as necessary subjects for girls to learn.
Higher Education Expands
(5) Colleges and universities expanded in this period, too. Most university
students were the sons of middle-or upper-class families. The university

curriculum emphasized ancient history and languages, philosophy, religion


and law. By the late 1800s, universities added courses in the sciences,
especially in chemistry and physics at the same time, engineering schools
trained students who would have the knowledge and skills to build the new
industrial society.
(6) Some women sought greater educational opportunities. By the 1840s, a
few small colleges for women opened, including Bedford College in England
and Mount Holyoke in the United States. In 1863, the British reformer Emily
Davies campaigned for female students to be allowed to take the entrance
examinations for Cambridge University. She succeeded, but as late as 1897,
male Cambridge students rioted against granting degrees to women.

Passage 2
(‫)الأصول والمصادر التاريخية لصياغة القوانين‬
Historical Origins of Law
(1) The origins and development of laves and legal systems are for the most
part based on the actions of government and religion. In many societies,
governments and religion are largely intertwined and their laws reflect this.
Because of differences in beliefs and values, laws vary widely from one society
to another. However, historically only two major types of legal systems
developed, civil law systems and common law. The term civil law as used to
describe a legal system refers to a system based primarily on written
constitutions and written laws or codes. In such legal systems, a ruler of
legislative body creates an extensive set of rules or regulations to govern. The
role of courts in such systems is limited. Common law systems, on the other
hand, are based on precedent or case law.
(2) Civil law jurisdictions, the more common in the world today, date back
thousands of years. One of the most famous examples was the Babylonian
Empire, a society ruled by a law known as the code of Haminurabi. The code
was named after the ruler of the time and dates back to approximately 1760
BCE.
(3) Common law systems are those based on the concept of precedent. In this
type of system, laws originate from decisions of courts rather than legislative
bodies. Originally. decisions were based on tradition and custom. but
eventually decisions were based on precedent. Precedent requires courts to
follow decisions of earlier courts. Common law originated with Medieval
England and is found in many countries once occupied by Great Britain.

Passage 3 ( ‫الصناعة وهجرة العمال للمدن ورجال الاعمال في بريطانيا امبراطورية‬


‫)الصناعة‬
Industrialization: migrant workers and entrepreneurs
(1) Britain's Industrial Revolution brought such wealth and power that Britain
became the world's superpower. This depended both on shipping routes and
the factory system. Factories all over the country, but especially the cotton
mills in the north of England, needed large numbers of workers. Pushed by
poverty and pulled by the chance of work in growing cities such as
Manchester, whole families left the English, Scottish. Welsh and Irish
countryside where they had lived for generations. This mass internal
migration took place alongside migration from other parts of Europe, notably
Italy.
(2) As cities grew. hundreds of thousands of people became part of an
industrial workforce. Workers organized themselves into trade unions and a
labor movement that pressed for social and political change. Demands for
higher wages and better living conditions were often led by migrant workers.
(3) Industrial Britain offered business opportunities too. During the 19th
century, the growing urban population offered an opportunity for people
setting up small businesses dealing in popular items such as street food,
clothing or household goods. Britain also attracted entrepreneurs from
overseas who believed their ideas and business ventures might succeed in the
most technologically advanced country in Europe.
(4) Many migrants settled in areas of cities where they could be close to
others who shared their culture and language. This made it easier to find
work and accommodation, socialize, shop and generally survive in a new city.
Certain areas of cities became identified with particular groups. for example,
the Irish in the Scotland Road area of Liverpool.

Passage 4 (‫)الطاقة الحركية‬
Kinetic Energy

(1) The first theory about how a hot object differs from a cold object was
formed in the 18th century. The suggested explanation was that when an
object was heated, an invisible fluid called «caloric» was added to the object.
Hot objects contain more calories than cold objects. The caloric theory could
explain some observations about heated objects (such as the fact that objects
expanded as they were heated) but could not explain others (such as why
your hands got warm when you rub them together).
(2) In the mid-19th century. scientists devised a new theory to explain heat.
The new theory was based on the assumption that matter is made up of tiny
particles that are always in motion. In a hot object, the particles move faster
and therefore have greater kinetic energy. The theory is called the kinetic-
molecular theory and is the accepted theory of heat. Just as a baseball has a
certain amount of kinetic energy due to its mass and velocity, each molecule
has a certain amount of kinetic energy due to its mass and velocity. Adding
up the kinetic energy of all the molecules in an object yields the thermal
energy of the object.
(3) When a hot object and a cold object touch each other, the molecules of
the objects collide along the surface where they touch. When higher kinetic
energy molecules collide with lower kinetic energy molecules. kinetic energy
is passed from the molecules with more kinetic energy to those with less
kinetic energy.

Modernizing Industry in the USSR: The Five-Year Plans
(1) Stalin set about achieving modernization of the Soviet economy through a
series of Five-Year Plans. These plans were drawn up by GOSPLAN, the state
planning organization that Lenin had set up in 1921. It set ambitious targets
for production in the important heavy industries (coal, iron, oil, electricity).
(2) The first Five-Year Plan focused on the major industries and although most
targets were not met, the achievements were still amazing. The USSR
increased production and created a foundation on which to build the next
Five-Year Plans. The USSR was rich in natural resources, but many of them
were in remote places such as Siberia. So whole cities were built from nothing
and workers taken out to the new industrial centers. Foreign observers

marveled as huge new steel mills appeared at Magnitogorsk in the Urals and
Sverdlovsk in central Siberia.
(3) The second Five-Year Plan (1933-37) built on the achievements of the first.
Mining for lead, tin, zinc and other minerals increased as Stalin further
exploited Siberia's rich mineral resources. Transport and communications
were also boosted, and new railways and canals were built. The most
spectacular showpiece project was the Moscow underground railway.
(4) Stalin also wanted industrialization to help improve Russia's agriculture.
The production of tractors and other farm machinery increased dramatically.
In the third Five-Year Plan, which was begun in 1938. some factories were to
switch to the production of consumer goods. However, this plan was
disrupted by the Second World War.

Passage 6 Friction (‫)الاحتكاك وقوانين الثبات والحركة‬


(1) In general, smooth surfaces produce less friction than rough surfaces. The
strength of the force of friction depends on two factors: how hard the
surfaces push together and the types of surfaces involved. Friction also
increases if surfaces push hard against each other. If you rub your hands
together forcefully, there is more friction than if you rub them together
lightly.
(2) Even the smoothest objects have irregular, bumpy Surfaces. When the
irregularities of one surface come into contact with those of another surface,
friction occurs. Friction acts in a direction opposite to the direction of the
object's motion. Without friction, a moving object might not stop until it
strikes another object.
Static Fiction
(3) The friction that acts on objects that are not moving is called static friction.
Because of static friction, you must use extra force to start the motion of
stationary objects. For example, think about what happens when you try to
push a heavy desk across a floor. If you push on the desk with a force less
than the force of static friction between the desk and the floor, the desk will
not move.
Rolling Fiction
(4) When an object rolls across a surface, rolling friction occurs. This type of
friction is important to engineers who design certain products. For example,
skates, skateboards, and bicycles need wheels that move freely. So, engineers
use ball bearings to reduce the friction between the wheels and the rest of
the product. These ball bearings are small, smooth steel balls that reduce
friction by rolling between moving parts.

Passage 8 (‫)اليوكيبيديات‬
Wikis
(1) A wiki is a Web site anyone can edit directly within a Web browser (provided
the site grants the user edit access). Wikis derive their name from the Hawaiian
word for «quick». Ward Cunningham, the «wiki father» named this new class of
software with the title in honor of the wiki-wiki shuttle bus at the Honolulu
airport. Wikis can indeed be one of the speediest ways to collaboratively create
content online. Many popular online wikis serve as a shared knowledge
repository in some domains.
(2) The largest and most popular wiki is Wikipedia, but there are hundreds of
publicly accessible wikis that anyone can participate in. Each attempt to record
a world of knowledge within a particular domain. But wikis can be used for any
collaborative effort – from meeting planning to project management. And in
addition to the hundreds of public wikis, there are many thousand more that
are hidden away behind firewalls, used as trademarked internal tools for
organizational collaboration.
(3) Like blogs, the value of a wiki derives from both technical and social features.
The technology makes it easy to create, edit, and refine content; learn when
content has been changed, how and by whom; and to change content back to
a prior state. But it is the social motivations of individuals (to make a
contribution, to share knowledge) that allow these features to be harnessed.
The larger and more active a wiki community, the more likely it is that content
will be up to-date and that errors will be quickly corrected. Several studies have
shown that large community wiki entries are as or more accurate than
professional publication counterparts.
(4) Went to add to or edit a wiki entry? On most sites you just click the «Edit»
link. Wikis support what you see is what you get editing that, while not as robust
as traditional word processors, is still easy enough for most users to grasp

163
‫أكاديمية عايد للتدريب‬
‫ وإلا تتحمل المسئولية كاملة أمام الجهات المختصة‬0568955606 ‫هذه الملفات خاصة بأكاديمية عايد محمية بحقوق حفظ ونسخ فلا تحاول الحصول عليها بط ريقة غير شرعية إلا عن طريق‬

without training or knowledge of obscure code or markup language. Users can


make changes to existing content and can easily create new pages or articles
and link them to other pages in the wiki. Wikis also provide a version history.
Click the «History» link on Wikipedia, for example, and you can see when edits
were made and by whom. This feature allows the community to roll back a wiki
to a prior page, in the event that someone accidentally deletes key information,
or intentionally ruins a page.
(5) Vandalism is a problem on Wikipedia, but it's more of a nuisance than a
crisis. A Wired article chronicled how Wikipedia's entry for former U.S. President
Jimmy Carter was regularly replaced by a photo of a scruffy woman. random
unshaven man. Nasty and inappropriate. to be sure, but the Wikipedia editorial
community is now so large and so vigilant that most vandalism is caught and
corrected within seconds. Watch-lists for the most active targets (say the web
pages of political figures or controversial topics) tip off the community when
changes are made.
(6) Wikis are available both as software (commercial as well as open-source
varieties) that firms can install on their own computers or as online services
(both subscription or ad-supported) where content is hosted off-site by third
parties. Since wikis can be started without the oversight or involvement of a
firm's IT department, their appearance in organizations often comes from
grassroots user initiative. Many wiki services offer additional tools such as blogs,
message boards, or spreadsheets as part of their feature set. making most wikis
really more full-featured platforms for social computing.
Examples of Wiki Use
(7) Wikis can be vital tools for collecting and leveraging knowledge that would
otherwise be scattered throughout an organization: reducing geographic
distance and removing boundaries between functional areas. Companies have
used wikis in a number of ways:
• At Pixar, all product meetings have an associated wiki to improve productivity.
The online agenda ensures that all attendees can arrive knowing the topics and
issues to be covered. Anyone attending

training for new hires. Six months after launch, wiki use had surpassed activity
on the firm's established intranet Wikis are also credited with helping to reduce
Dresdner e-mail traffic by 75 percent.
• Sony's PlayStation team uses wikis to regularly maintain one-page overviews
on the status of various projects. In this way, legal, marketing, and finance staff
can get quick, up-to-date status reports on relevant projects, including the
latest projected deadlines, action items, and benchmark progress. Strong
security measures are enforced that limit access to only those who must be in
the know, since the overviews often discuss products that have not been
released.
• ABC and CBS have created public wikis for the television programs Lost, The
Amazing Race, and CSI, among others, offering an outlet for fans, and a way
for new viewers to catch up on character backgrounds and complex plot lines.
• Executive Travel, owned by American Express Publishing, has created a travel
wiki for its more than one hundred and thirty thousand readers with the goal
of creating what it refers to as «a digital mosaic that in theory is more
authoritative, comprehensive, and useful» than comments on a Web site and
far more up-to-date than any paper-based travel guide.

Passage 9 (‫ )التقطير البسيط‬Simple Distillation


(1) Simple distillation is a procedure by which two liquids with different
boiling points can be isolated. It can be used effectively to isolate liquids that
have at least fifty degrees difference in their boiling points. If we want to
obtain the solvent from a solution, then this process of distillation can be
carried out.
(2) Water can be obtained from salt water using this method. The solution is
heated in the flask until it boils. The steam rises into the Liebig condenser,
where it condenses back into water. The salt is left behind in the flask. In hot
and arid countries such as Saudi Arabia this sort of technique is used on a
much larger scale to obtain pure water for drinking. This process is carried
out in a desalination plant.

Passage 10 (‫)الحفاظ على المحميات والأنظمة البيئية‬


Preserving Habitats and Ecosystems
(1) The main thrust of global conservation efforts today is to protect not just
individual species but entire ecosystems. The goal is to preserve the natural
interactions of many species. To that end, governments and conservation
groups work to set aside land as parks and reserves. The United States has
national parks, forests, and other protected areas. Marine sanctuaries are
being created to protect coral reefs and marine mammals.

(2) The challenge is protecting areas that are large enough and that contain
the right resources to protect biodiversity. To make sure that conservation
efforts are concentrated in the most important places. conservation biologists
have identified ecological hotspots'. An ecological hotspot is a place where
significant numbers of species and habitats are in immediate danger of
extinction. By identifying these areas, ecologists hope that scientists and
governments can better target their efforts to save as many species as
possible.

Passage 11
Chemical Reactions
(1) Decomposition of compounds into elements and the combination of
elements to make compounds are examples of chemical processes. Using the
atomic theory, such processes are seen as changes in the combinations of
atoms. Such transformations are called chemical reactions. The term reaction
means to produce a result. A chemical reaction is a process in which one set
of chemicals is mixed and transformed into a new set of chemicals. When
charcoal, which is mostly elemental carbon, burns in air, the process is
envisioned as carbon atoms combining with diatomic oxygen molecules to
produce molecules of carbon dioxide gas.
(2) As mentioned above, the law of conservation of matter expresses that
atoms are not created or destroyed in chemical processes. In other words,
atoms are conserved in chemical reactions. A reaction is a special process in
which certain chemical combinations of atoms transform into new
combinations of atoms. In a reaction, the total atom count does not change.
Thus, destroying matter by chemical reactions is not possible.

Passage 12 Photosynthesis
(1) All living organisms need food. They need it as a source of raw materials
to build new cells and tissues as they grow. They also need food as a source
of energy. Food is a kind of 'fuel' that drives essential living processes and
brings about chemical changes. Animals take in food, digest it and use the
digested products to build their tissues or to produce energy.
(2) Plants also need energy and raw materials but, apart from a few insect
eating species, plants do not appear to take in food. The most likely source of
their raw materials would appear to be the soil. However, experiments show
that the weight gained by a growing plant is far greater than the weight lost
by the soil it is growing in. So there must be additional sources of raw
materials.
(3) Jean-Baptiste van Helmont was a Dutch scientist working in the 17th
century. At that time very little was known about the process of
photosynthesis. He carried out an experiment using a willow shoot. He
planted the shoot in a container with 90.8 kg of dry soil and placed a metal
grill over the soil to prevent any accidental gain or loss of mass. He left the
shoot for 5 years in an open yard, providing it with only rainwater and
distilled water for growth. After 5 years he reweighed the tree and the soil
and came to the conclusion that the increase in mass of the tree (74.7 kg) was
due entirely to the water it had received. However, he was unaware that
plants also take in mineral salts and carbon dioxide, or that they use light as a
source of energy.
54. How is the author's view of "increase in mass" in trees different from the
Dutch scientist, Helmont's view? "‫كيف تختلف وجهة نظر المؤلف عن "زيادة الكتلة‬
‫ من وجهة نظر هيلمونت؟‬، ‫في الأشجار عن وجهة نظر العالم الهولندي‬
(A) It is due entirely to the water they receive.
(B) It is due to the water, air, and soil they receive.
(C) It is due to the water, minerals, carbon dionxide, and sun light.
(D) It is due to a healthy soil, enough water, enough minerals and air.
55. What word other than food does the writer use to talk about the need of
all living things? ‫ما هي الكلمة بخلاف الطعام التي يستخدمها الكاتب للحديث عن‬
‫حاجة كل الكائنات الحية؟‬

(B) fuel
(C) material

56. What can we understand from the passage about the source of food
hypothesis?
‫ماذا يمكن أن نفهم من المقطع حول فرضية مصدر الغذاء؟‬
(A) Food comes from only carbohydrates and carbon.
(B) Food comes from three different sources.
(C) Food comes from more than four sources.
(D) Food comes from nitrogen and sulfur.
57. What can we understand from Paragraph (3) about Helmont's
experiment?
‫) عن تجربة هيلمونت؟‬3( ‫ما الذي يمكن أن نفهمه من البرقراف‬
(A) It failed because it used dry soil.
(B) It succeeded because it used only rainwater for 5 years.
(C) It failed because it did not pay attention to all things plants need.
(D) It failed because it happened a long time ago before photosynthesis was
even known.

Passage 13
Passage A: External Recruiting

(1) External recruiting is the attempt to attract job applicants from outside an
organization. External recruiting may include recruiting via newspaper
advertising, employment agencies, and online employment organizations;
recruiting on college campuses, soliciting recommendations from present
employees; and conducting «open houses». The biggest of the online job-
search sites is Monster.com, which has almost all the Fortune 500 companies,
as well as small and medium-sized businesses, as clients. In addition, many
people simply apply at a firm's employment office.

(2) Clearly, it is best to match the recruiting means with the kind of applicant
being sought. For example, private employment agencies most often handle
professional people, whereas public employment agencies (operated by state
170
‫أكاديمية عايد للتدريب‬
‫ وإلا تتحمل المسئولية كاملة أمام الجهات المختصة‬0568955606 ‫هذه الملفات خاصة بأكاديمية عايد محمية بحقوق حفظ ونسخ فلا تحاول الحصول عليها بط ريقة غير شرعية إلا عن طريق‬

or local governments) are more concerned with operations personnel. We


might approach a private agency when looking for a vice president but
contact a public agency to hire a machinist. Procter and Gamble hires
graduates directly out of college. It picks the best and brightest – not those
«tainted» by another company's culture. It promotes its own «inside» people.
This policy makes sure that the company retains the best and brightest and
trains new recruits. Procter and Gamble pays competitively and offers
positions in many countries. Employee turnover is very low.

(3) The primary advantage of external recruiting is that it brings in people


with new perspectives and varied business backgrounds. A disadvantage of
external recruiting is that it is often expensive, especially if private
employment agencies must be used. External recruiting also may provoke
resentment among present employees.
Passage B: Internal Recruiting
(1) Internal recruiting means considering present employees. Among leading
companies promoted from within. In the companies that hire CEOs from
outside, 40 percent of CEOs are gone after 18 months.
(2) Promoting from within provides strong motivation for current employees
and helps the firm to retain quality personnel. General Electric, ExxonMobil,
and Eastman Kodak are companies dedicated to promoting from within. The
practice of job posting, or informing current employees of upcoming
openings, may be a company policy or required by union contract. The
primary disadvantage of internal recruiting is that promoting a current
employee leaves another position to be filled. Not only does the firm still
incur recruiting and selection costs, but it also must train two employees
instead of one.
(3) In many situations it may be impossible to recruit internally. For example, a
new position may be such that no current employee is qualified, or the firm
may be growing so rapidly that there is no time to reassign positions that
promotion or transfer requires. Unions are culturally specific to countries
other than Saudi Arabia, so test takers may not be familiar with «union
contract».

Passage 2 (‫)الاستدامة في بنجلاديش‬


Sustainability in Bangladesh
(1) If small, largely urbanized countries such as Singapore and small island states
such as the Maldives are not considered, then Bangladesh has the highest
population density in the world. At 1,062 people per km2 its population density
is about twenty times the global average. It compares with 383 per km2 in India
and 141 per km2 in China – two countries that many people associate with over
– population. Over – population cannot be judged by population density alone,
but it is a useful starting point when considering the relationship between
population and resources in a country.
(2) The lack of natural resources is a major factor in over – population in
Bangladesh, as is rapid population growth. The current rate of natural increase
in Bangladesh is 1.6 per cent. When Bangladesh became an independent
country in 1971 its population was about 75 million, just under half of the total
today! The Population Reference Bureau estimates that the population of

174
‫أكاديمية عايد للتدريب‬
‫ وإلا تتحمل المسئولية كاملة أمام الجهات المختصة‬0568955606 ‫هذه الملفات خاصة بأكاديمية عايد محمية بحقوق حفظ ونسخ فلا تحاول الحصول عليها بط ريقة غير شرعية إلا عن طريق‬

Bangladesh will rise to 183 million by 2025 and 226 million by 2050. There is
already intense competition for the available resources in Bangladesh. How will
the country cope in the future when it is already experiencing large-scale
poverty and so many other problems?
(3) Extremely high population pressure and the deprivation associated with it
is characteristic of both rural and urban areas. Four – fifths of the population
live in rural areas. The very small amount of cultivable land per person has
resulted in a very high level of rural poverty. Most families have to survive on
extremely small plots of land. This means that there is not enough work
available for many people. About 40 per cent of the population is
underemployed, working a limited number of hours a week at low wages.
Underemployment is not just confined to the countryside, but affects urban
areas too.
(4) The regular threat of cyclones and flooding makes this problem much
worse. Eighty per cent of the country is situated on the floodplains of the
Ganges, Brahmaputra, Meghna and those of several other minor rivers. Much
of the country is close to sea level and about 40 per cent is regularly flooded
during the monsoon season. Major floods can cause considerable loss of life
and destroy vital infrastructure, often setting back development for many years.
Where possible, people move to higher land, increasing the already
overcrowded nature of such areas. Major floods increase the level of rural -to-
urban migration, with the majority of migrants heading for the capital city
Dhaka. Other urban areas such as Chittagong, Khulna and Rajshahi are also
growing in population at very rapid rates. Around 8,000 hectares of cultivable
land is lost every year due to urbanization, industrialization and the expansion
of infrastructure. This is potential food production that Bangladesh can ill afford
to lose.
(5) Living conditions in Dhaka and the other main urban areas are in a
continuous state of deterioration. Many people lack basic amenities such as
electricity and clean drinking water. Dhaka has become one of the most
crowded cities in the world with a population density of 43,000 per km2. This
rapidly growing megacity was recently ranked as the least habitable city among
140 cities surveyed by the Economist Intelligence Unit. The 2012 Human
Development Index, which ranks all the countries of the world according to
their quality of life, placed Bangladesh 146th in the world.
(6) Land is being lost to rising sea levels, a process associated with global
warming. The United Nations Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change has
predicted that as sea levels rise, by 2050 about 35 million people from
175
‫أكاديمية عايد للتدريب‬

Bangladesh will cross the border into India in search of more secure living
conditions.
(7) Poor governance and corruption have undoubtedly hindered development
in Bangladesh. However, national and international efforts to improve the lives
of the population have registered progress. For example, The World Bank
noted in 2013 that the number of people in poverty in Bangladesh had fallen
from 63 million in 2000 to 47 million in 2010.

Passage 3 (‫ )الاستيراد والتصدير‬Importing and Exporting


(1) The history of importing and exporting dates back to the Roman Empire,
when European and Asian traders imported and exported goods across the
vast lands of Eurasia. Trading along the Silk Road flourished during the
thirteenth and fourteenth centuries. Caravans filled with imports from China
and India came over the desert to Constantinople and Alexandria. From there,
Italian ships transported the goods to European ports.

(2) For centuries, importing and exporting has often involved middlemen, due
in part to the long distances traveled and different native languages spoken.
The spice trade of the 1400s was no exception. Spices were very much in
demand because Europeans had no refrigeration, which meant they had to
preserve meat using large amounts of salt or risk eating half-rotten flesh.
Spices disguised the otherwise poor flavor of the meat. Europeans also used
spices as medicines. The European demand for spices gave rise to the spice
trade. The trouble was that spices were difficult to obtain because they grew
in jungles half a world away from Europe. The overland journey to the spice-
rich lands was difficult and involved many middlemen along the way. Each
middleman charged a fee and thus raised the price of the spice at each point.
By the end of the journey, the price of the spice was inflated 1,000 percent.

Passage 4 (‫)التعبئة‬
(1) During the French Revolutionary Wars, the French army had a problem. A
big. potentially deadly problem. It was so big that on this day in 1795, they
offered 12.000 francs to anyone who could successfully solve it.
(2) That problem – how to store food safely – was one shared by most of the
rest of humanity, which probably explains why its solution has been so
popular and lasting: canning. When left out, food, as we all know, goes bad.
(3) Although food could be dried, smoked, fermented or pickled before the
invention of canning, none of these methods were certain to be safe and they

177
‫أكاديمية عايد للتدريب‬
‫ وإلا تتحمل المسئولية كاملة أمام الجهات المختصة‬0568955606 ‫هذه الملفات خاصة بأكاديمية عايد محمية بحقوق حفظ ونسخ فلا تحاول الحصول عليها بط ريقة غير شرعية إلا عن طريق‬

didn't preserve flavor. Then came Nicolas Appert, a candy maker and winner
of the prize money and the title «The Father of Canning».
(4) Canning works by placing food in jars or cans and heating the whole set-
up to a temperature that kills bacteria and other microorganisms. As the jars/
cans cool, a vacuum seal is formed which prevents other microorganisms
from getting in.
(5) Here's the thing, though: Appert could never explain why his method
worked. Appert's work was centered around the idea of removing air from
food. Appert's method started with putting food in jars, which were then
corked, and sealed off with a wax seal. The jars were wrapped in canvas and
then boiled.
(6) After years of experimentation, Appert decided, correctly, that the two
most important factors in canning were «the absolute deprivation from
contact with the exterior air» and «application of the heat in the water bath».

Passage 7 (‫)التحليل النفسي‬
Psychoanalysis
What are the aims and methods of psychoanalysis?
(1) Although most of today's therapists do not practice therapy as Sigmund
Freud did, his psychoanalytic techniques survive. Psychoanalysis is part of our
modern vocabulary, and its assumptions influence many other therapies.
Aims
(2) Psychoanalysis assumes that many psychological problems are fueled by
childhood's residue of supposedly repressed impulses and conflicts.
Psychoanalysts try to bring these repressed feelings into conscious awareness,
where the patient can deal?
(3) Psychoanalysis is historical reconstruction. Its goal is to unearth the past in
hope of unmasking the present. But how?
(4) When Freud discarded hypnosis as unreliable, he turned to free
association. Imagine yourself as a patient using the free association
technique. The analyst invites you to relax, perhaps by lying on a couch. He or
she will probably sit out of your line of vision, helping you focus attention on
your internal thoughts and feelings. Beginning with a childhood memory, a
dream, or a recent experience, you say aloud whatever comes to your mind
from moment to moment. It sounds easy, but soon you notice how often you
edit your thoughts as you speak, omitting material that seems trivial,
irrelevant or shameful. Even in the safe presence of the analyst, you may
pause momentarily before uttering an embarrassing thought. You may make
a joking remark or change the subject to something less threatening.
182
‫أكاديمية عايد للتدريب‬
‫ وإلا تتحمل المسئولية كاملة أمام الجهات المختصة‬0568955606 ‫هذه الملفات خاصة بأكاديمية عايد محمية بحقوق حفظ ونسخ فلا تحاول الحصول عليها بط ريقة غير شرعية إلا عن طريق‬

Sometimes your mind may go blank or you may find yourself unable to
remember important details.
(5) To the psychoanalyst, these blocks in the flow of your free associations
indicate resistance. They hint that anxiety lurks and that you are repressing
sensitive material. The analyst will want to explore these sensitive areas by
making you aware of your resistances and by interpreting their underlying
meaning. The analyst's interpretations - suggestions of underlying wishes,
feelings, and conflicts – aim to provide people with insight. If offered at the
right moment, the analyst's interpretation – of. say, your not wanting to talk
about your mother – may illuminate what you are avoiding. You may then
discover what your resistances mean and how they fit with other pieces of
your psychological puzzle.
(6) Freud believed that another clue to repressed impulses is your dreams
hidden content. Thus, after inviting you to report a dream, the analyst may
offer a dream analysis, suggesting its hidden meaning.
(7) During many such sessions you will probably disclose more of yourself to
your analyst than you have ever revealed to anyone. Because psychoanalytic
theory emphasizes the formative power of childhood experiences, much of
what you reveal will pertain to your earliest memories. You will also probably
find yourself experiencing strong positive or negative feelings for your
analyst. Such feelings may express the dependency or mingled love and
anger that you earlier experienced toward family members or other important
people in your life. When this happens, Freud would say you are actually
transferring your strongest feelings from those other relationships to the
analyst. Analysts and other therapists believe that this transference exposes
long-repressed feelings, giving you a belated chance to work through them
with your analyst's help. By examining your feelings toward the analyst, you
may also gain insight into your current relationships.
(8) Note how much of psychoanalysis is built on the assumption that
repressed memories exist. That assumption is now questioned. This challenge
to an assumption that is basic to so much of professional and popular
psychology is provoking intense debate.
(9) Critics also say that psychoanalysts' interpretations are hard to refute. If, in
response to the analyst's suggested interpretation, you say, «Yes! I see now»,
183

your acceptance confirms the analyst's interpretation. If you emphatically say,


«No! That doesn't ring true,» your denial may be taken to reveal more
resistance. which would also confirm the interpretation. Psychoanalysts
acknowledge that it's hard to prove or disprove their interpretations. But they
insist that interpretations often are a great help to patients.
(10) Traditional psychoanalysis is slow and expensive. It requires up to several
years of several sessions a week with a highly trained and well-paid analyst.
(Three times a week for just two years at $100 or more per hour comes to
about $30.000.) Only those with a high income can afford such treatment.
(11) Although there are relatively few traditional psychoanalysts,
psychoanalytic assumptions influence many therapists, especially those who
make psychodynamic assumptions. Psychodynamic therapists try to
understand patients' current symptoms by exploring their childhood
experiences. They probe for supposed repressed, emotion-laden information.
They seek to help people gain insight into the unconscious roots of problems
and work through newly resurrected feelings. Although influenced by Freud's
psychoanalysis, these therapists may talk to people face to face (rather than
out of the line of Vision). once a week (rather than several times Weekly), and
for only a few weeks or months (rather than several years).

Passage 8 (‫) الوقود الحفري‬


Fossil fuels
(1) Fossil fuels include coal, oil and natural gas, formed from the remains of
plants and animals which lived millions of years ago and obtained energy
originally from the Sun. At present they are our main energy source.
Predictions vary as to how long they will last since this depends on what
reserves are recoverable and on the future demands of a world population
expected to increase from about 7,000 million in 2011 to at least 7,600 million
by the year 2050. Some estimates say oil and gas will run low early in the
present century but coal should last for 200 years or so.
(2) Burning fossil fuels in power stations and in cars pollutes the atmosphere
with harmful gases such as carbon dioxide and sulfur dioxide. Carbon dioxide
emission aggravates the greenhouse effect and increases global warming. It is
not immediately feasible to prevent large amounts of carbon dioxide entering
the atmosphere, but less is produced by burning natural gas than by burning
oil or coal; burning coal produces most carbon dioxide for each unit of
energy produced.
(3) When coal and oil are but they also produce sulfur dioxide which causes
acid rain. The sulfur dioxide can be extracted from the waste gases so it does
not enter the atmosphere or the sulfur can be removed from the fuel before
combustion, but these are both costly and risky processes which increase the
price of electricity produced using these measures.
47. What is the main topic of the passage? ‫ما هو الموضوع الرئيسي للقطعه؟‬
A- The fossil fuels we rely on are destroying the planet.
B- The negative effects of fossil fuels can easily be fixed.
C- Burning coal produces more carbon dioxide than burning oil.
D - Coal and oil will continue to be more important than natural gas.

Passage 9 (‫) أهمية الهندسة المعمارية‬


Importance of architecture
Could you build an information system without an architecture? Yes, it is
possible to build small. isolated information systems without a formal
architecture, just as it is possible to build a log cabin without one. But as soon
as you want to build a building which is larger or has multiple components –
an energy efficient home, an apartment complex, an office high – rise – you
need an architecture to show where the electric wiring, the plumbing, heating
and air conditioning, the stairs and the elevators should go and how they
should work together. The main role of a system architecture is to help
manage the complexity and size of modern business information systems.
The architecture embodies important design decisions that have already been

made This is a constraint on the team which is not free to make decisions that
run counter to the architecture, but it also means that there is some kind of
support within the organization – including knowledgeable people,

Passage 10 (‫)التسعير العالمي‬


International Pricing
(1) Companies that market their products internationally must decide what
prices to charge in the different countries in which they operate. In some
cases, a company can set a uniform worldwide price. For example, Boeing
sells its jetliners at about the same price everywhere, whether in the United
States, Europe or a third – world country. However, most counties adjust their
prices to reflect local market conditions and cost considerations.

187
‫أكاديمية عايد للتدريب‬
‫ وإلا تتحمل المسئولية كاملة أمام الجهات المختصة‬0568955606 ‫هذه الملفات خاصة بأكاديمية عايد محمية بحقوق حفظ ونسخ فلا تحاول الحصول عليها بط ريقة غير شرعية إلا عن طريق‬

(2) The price that a company should charge in a specific country depends on
many factors, including economic conditions, competitive situations, laws and
regulations, and development of the wholesaling and retailing system.
Consumer perception and preferences also may vary from country to country,
calling for different prices. Or the company may have different marketing
objectives in various world markets, which require changes in pricing strategy.
For example, Samsung might introduce a new product into mature markets in
highly developed countries with the goal of quickly gaining a large share of
the market – this would call for a penetration – pricing strategy where the
product is offered at a very low price. In contrast, it might enter a less –
developed market by using market – skimming pricing where the price is set
very high initially.
(3) Costs play an important role in setting international prices. Travelers
abroad are often surprised to find that goods that are relatively inexpensive at
home may carry outrageously higher price tags in other countries. A pair of
Levi's selling for $30 in the United States might go for $63 in Tokyo or $88 in
Paris. A McDonald's Big Mac selling for a modest $3.50 here in Saudi Arabia
might cost $7.50 in Berlin, Germany. Conversely, a Gucci handbag going for
only $140 in Milan, Italy. might fetch $240 in the United States. In some cases,
such price escalations may result from different selling strategies or market
conditions. In some instances, however, it is simply the result of the higher
cost of selling in another country – the additional cost of product
modifications, shipping and insurance, import taxes. exchange-rate
fluctuations, and physical distribution.
54. What word other than «inexpensive» the writer uses to talk about prices
at home?
‫ما هي الكلمة التي يستخدمها الكاتب للحديث عن الأسعار في المنزل بخلاف كلمة "غير‬
‫مكلفة"؟‬
A- various
B- modest
C- additional
D- competitive

A- Levi's are outrageously expensive in Paris.
B- $3.50 is a modest price for a Big Mac.
C- It costs more to sell internationally.

B- Their prices depend on cost considerations.
C- Their prices are independent of local market conditions.
D- Their prices are relatively inexpensive where they are made.

Passage 11 (‫)الصحة في الدول الغنية والفقيرة‬


The Health Divide
Passage A: Health in High – Income Nations
(1) Obesity, which is on the rise in high-income nations, has been linked to
many diseases, including cardiovascular problems. musculoskeletal problems,
diabetes, and respiratory issues. According to the International Organization
for Economic Cooperation and Development (2011). Obesity rates are rising in
all countries. With the greatest gains being made in the highest-income
countries. The United States has the highest obesity rate. Wallace Huffman
and his fellow researchers (2006) contend that several factors are contributing
to the rise in obesity in developed countries.
(2) These include:
• Improvements in technology and reduced family size have led to a
reduction of work to be done in household production.
• Unhealthy market goods, including processed foods, sweetened drinks, and
sweet and salty snacks are replacing home – produced goods.
• Leisure activities are growing more sedentary, for example, computer
games, web surfing, and television viewing.
• More workers are shifting from active work (agriculture and manufacturing)
to service industries.
• Increased access to passive transportation has led to more driving and less
walking.
189

• Obesity and weight issues have significant societal costs, including lower life
expectancies and higher shared healthcare costs.
(3) High – income countries also have higher rates of depression than less
affluent nations. A recent study shows that the average lifetime prevalence of
major depressive episodes in the 10 highest – income countries in the study
was 14.6 percent; this compared to 11.1 percent in the eight low – and middle
– income countries. The researchers speculate that the higher rate of
depression may be linked to the greater income inequality that exists in the
highest – income nations.

Passage B: Health in Low – Income Nations


(1) In peripheral nations with low per capita income, it is not the cost of health
care that is the most pressing concern. Rather, low – income countries must
manage such problems as infectious disease, high infant mortality rates,
scarce medical personnel, and inadequate water and sewer systems. Such
issues, which high – income countries rarely even think about, are central to
the lives of most people in low – income nations. Due to such health
concerns, low – income nations have higher rates of infant mortality and
lower average life spans.
One of the biggest contributors to medical issues in low – income countries is
the lack of access to clean water and basic sanitation resources. According to
a 2011 UNICEF repot almost half of the developing world's population lacks
improved sanitation facilities. The World Health Organization (WHO) tracks
health – related data for 193 countries. In their 2011 World Health Statistics
report, they document some of this data.
his includes:
• Globally, the rate of mortality for children under five was 60 per 1.000 live
births. In low – income countries, however, that rate is almost double at 117
per 1,000 live births. In high – income countries, that rate is significantly lower
than seven per 1,000 live births.
• The most frequent causes of death for children under five were pneumonia
and diarrheal diseases. accounting for 18 percent and 15 percent, respectively.
These deaths could be easily avoidable with cleaner water and more coverage
of available medical care.

• The availability of doctors and nurses in low – income countries is one-tenth


that of nations with a high income. Challenges in access to medical education
and access to patients exacerbate this issue for would-be medical
professionals in low – income countries.
57. What do the passages say about high – income and low – income
nations?

Passage 1
Giant Panda
1) An American-born giant panda will soon be traveling to China. The
Chinese government has an agreement with foreign zoos to lend giant
pandas out only for scientific study. After a few years, they, and any cubs
they may produce, must all be returned to China. Mei Lan, a three-year-
old female, is being prepared for her trip to China, where her parents were
born. A special FedEx flight from the U.S. is being arranged for her.
2) Chinese zookeepers are getting ready for her arrival by planning a special diet,
and even language lessons for her. They are advertising for a tutor to teach Mei
Lan Chinese. The caretakers at her new home, the Chengdu Panda Research
Center in Sichuan, want to help her adapt quickly and feel comfortable in her
new environment. Mei Lan has lived at a zoo in the city of Atlanta, Georgia, since
her birth, and she is unfamiliar with Chinese. The teacher must have a bachelor's
degree or higher and be fluent in both English and Chinese.
21. According to Paragraph (2), why do the Chinese zookeepers want Mei Lan
to learn Chinese? ‫ لماذا يريد حراس الحديقة الصينيون أن تتعلم مي‬،)2( ‫وف ًقا للبرقراف‬
‫لان اللغة الصينية؟‬
(A) so that she can speak with her caretakers
(B) so that she will feel at home in China
(C)so that she can forget her English
(D) so that she will like her new diet
22. According to Paragraph (2), where has Mei Lan been living?

(A) in the Chengdu Panda Research Center
(B) in an American research center
(C) in Atlanta, Georgia

Stars
1) If we look at the night sky carefully, we will see that the stars are of many
different colors. Some are red, others are yellow and some are blue. This is also

shown when we take color photographs of the night sky. You can take such a
photograph with an ordinary camera as long as it is kept steady. A thirty second
exposure is sufficient.
2) Astronomers have been able to classify stars according to color. They have
found that blue stars are the largest and red stars the smallest. However, there
are a few stars which cannot be classified in this way. These are the superstars.
For example, Ryiejol is a blue superstar as big as 40.000 suns and Beetlejuice is a
superstar with a size equal to 17.000 suns.
3) Suppose an astronomer observes two stars, one brighter than the other. If
neither of them is a superstar. he will know immediately that the brighter star is
closer. Astronomers have instruments like light meters which can measure the
brightness of a star quite accurately. It is possible to measure a star's distance
from the earth if astronomers know the color, brightness and whether or not it is
a superstar.
23. Which of the following colors is NOT mentioned in the passage?
‫أي من الألوان التالية لم يرد ذكره في القطعه؟‬
(A) green
(B) yellow
(C) blue
(D) red
24. According to Paragraph (2) Beetlejuice is a superstar ……………………

Passage 3
Stress
1) We all feel stressed from time to time - it's all part of the emotional ups and
downs of life. Stress has many sources. It can come from our environment, from
our bodies, or our own thoughts and how we view the world around us. It is very
natural to feel stressed around moments of pressure such as exam time - but we
are physiologically designed to deal with stress, and react to it.
2) When we feel under pressure the nervous system instructs our bodies to release
stress hormones including adrenaline, noradrenaline and cortisol. These produce
physiological changes to help us cope with the threat or danger we see to be
upon us. This is called the “stress response” or the "fight-or-flight" response.
3) Stress can actually be positive, as the stress response helps us stay alert,
motivated and focused on the task at hand. Usually, when the pressure subsides,
the body rebalances and we start to feel calm again. But when we experience
stress too often or for too long, or when the negative feelings overwhelm our
ability to cope, then problems will arise. Continuous activation of the nervous
system - experiencing the “stress response - causes wear and tear on the body.
4) When we are stressed, the respiratory system is immediately affected. We tend
to breathe harder and more quickly in an effort to quickly distribute oxygenic
blood around our body. Although this is not an issue for most of us, it could be
a problem for people with asthma who may feel short of breath and struggle to
take in enough oxygen. It can also cause quick and shallow breathing, where
minimal air is taken in, which can lead to hyperventilation. This is more likely if
someone is prone to anxiety and panic attacks.
5) Stress wreaks havoc on our immune systems. Cortisol released in our bodies
suppresses the immune system and inflammatory pathways, and we become

194
‫أكاديمية عايد للتدريب‬
‫ وإلا تتحمل المسئولية كاملة أمام الجهات المختصة‬0568955606 ‫هذه الملفات خاصة بأكاديمية عايد محمية بحقوق حفظ ونسخ فلا تحاول الحصول عليها بط ريقة غير شرعية إلا عن طريق‬

more susceptible to infections and chronic inflammatory conditions. Our ability


to fight off illness is reduced.
6) The musculoskeletal system is also affected. Our muscles tense up, which is the
body's natural way of protecting ourselves from injury and pain. Repeated
muscle tension can cause bodily aches and pains, and when it occurs in the
shoulders, neck and head it may result in tension headaches and migraines.
7) There are cardiovascular effects. When stress is acute (in the moment), heart rate
and blood pressure increase, but they return to normal once the acute stress has
passed. If acute stress is repeatedly experienced, or if stress becomes chronic
(over a long period of time, it can cause damage to blood vessels and arteries.
This increases the risk for hypertension, heart attack or stroke.
8) Stress has marked effects on our emotional well-being. It is normal to experience
high and low moods in our daily lives, but when we are stressed, we may feel
more tired, have mood swings or feel more irritable than usual. Stress causes
hyperarousal, which means we may have difficulty falling or staying asleep and
experience restless nights. This impairs concentration, attention, learning and
memory, all of which are particularly important around exam time. Researchers
have linked poor sleep to chronic health problems, depression and even obesity.
9) The way that we cope with stress has an additional indirect effect on our health.
Under pressure, people may adopt more harmful habits such as smoking to
relieve stress. But these behaviors are inappropriate ways to adapt and only lead
to more health problems and risks to our personal safety and well-being.
10) So learn to manage your stress, before it manages you It's all about keeping it in
check. Some stress in life is normal - and a little stress can help us to feel alert,
motivated, focused, energetic and even excited. Take positive actions to channel
this energy effectively and you may find yourself performing better, achieving
more and feeling good.

Passage 4
(Market orientated)
1. A market-orientated company is one that organizes its activities, products and services
around the wants and needs of its customers. By contrast, a product-oriented firm has
its primary focus on its product and on the skills, knowledge and systems that support
that product.
2. Until the late 20th century many firms were product-orientated and failed to
understand the changing needs of their customers in an increasingly competitive
marketplace. A major swing towards market-orientation has led to intensified market
research and product ranges carefully designed to fit customer preferences.
3. However, product-orientation can still be important in keeping an emphasis on quality,
safety and investment in new technology.

4. Successful companies recognize the importance of both approaches. Products must


start with the needs and wants of customers. But delivery of a profitable product
depends on efficiency and quality in production.
5. In the real world, market and product orientation are closely intertwined so that
companies like Gillette, Coca-Cola and Travis Perkins, will:
- carry out market research into what consumers want
- organize product research in line with the results of market research
- constantly engage in qualitative market research to find out what focus
groups of customers think of new ideas
- test market new products in smaller market areas before launching them
onto a wider market
- evaluate ongoing customer perception of goods and services, in order to
make improvements to technologies and product offerings Market
orientation gets the right product: product orientation gets the product right.
30. What important idea connected to product-oriented firms does the writer
mention in Paragraph (1)? ‫ما هي الفكرة المهمة المرتبطة بالشركات الموجهة‬
‫)؟‬1( ‫للمنتجات التي يذكرها الكاتب في البرقراف‬
(A) Their customers want and need their products.
(B) They help customers based on what they want and need.
(C) They pay more attention to what they make and services that help it.
(D) They need skills, knowledge, and systems in order to make products.
31. What important idea connected to 20th-century firms does the writer
mention in Paragraph (2)? ‫ما هي الفكرة المهمة المرتبطة بشركات القرن العشرين‬

(A) They did not understand what their customers looked for.
(B) They tested new products in small areas first.
(C) They made products with high quality using new technology.

Passage 5 Intellectual Property


1. A type of property of great importance in today's commercial environment is
intellectual property. Intellectual property consists of the result of one's thoughts,
ideas, or inventions. It is not the thought or idea itself, but the result, such as a book or
a computer chip. Intellectual property law deals with obtaining protection for one's
work, licensing others to use one's work, and enforcing one's rights.
2. Obtaining protection for intellectual property often includes registration with the
proper government agency. Licensing one's work involves negotiating and drafting
contracts. Enforcing one's rights often means filing a lawsuit known as an infringement
action.
3. Intellectual property law includes the law that relates to copyrights, patents,
trademarks, and trade secrets. This area of law has grown and developed in the
technology age. However, the need for such a law was recognized by the drafters of
the Constitution, who gave Congress the right to legislate "To promote the progress of
science and useful arts, by securing for limited times to authors and inventors the
exclusive right to their respective writings and discoveries.”
34. According to the passage, what made intellectual property law grow and
develop?

Passage 7
The Paralegal Profession
(1) Most paralegals work under the supervision of attorneys either in private
law offices, government law offices (such as prosecutors' offices), or in the
legal departments of corporations or other businesses. They cannot appear in
court or give legal advice. However, under the supervision of an attorney,
they can perform many tasks often done by lawyers, such as interviewing
clients, drafting legal documents, and doing legal research. For example, a
paralegal who works in a firm that handles automobile accident cases might
interview clients and witnesses, draft documents to be filed in court, or
summarize medical records. On the other hand, a paralegal who works for a
probate attorney might be involved in gathering and organizing financial data
or preparing inheritance tax returns. The day-today tasks that paralegals
perform are as varied as the types of law that are practiced.
(2) However, certain knowledge and skills are commonly required of all
paralegals. Paralegals need to have a basic knowledge of the legal system,
substantive laws and legal procedures. The chapters in this book cover these
areas. Legal assistants should also have some knowledge of the substantive
and procedural laws of the state in which they work. This is the focus of most
formal paralegal education. In addition, every paralegal should know and
understand the ethical obligations that bind legal professionals. Paralegals
must also possess certain basic skills. These include the following:
Oral and written communication skills
(3) Paralegals frequently communicate orally and in writing with the courts,
attorneys, other paralegals, and clients. Paralegals commonly interview clients
and witnesses, and then summarize in writing the content of such interviews.
Additionally, paralegals draft all types of legal documents.
Research skills
(4) Some paralegals do extensive legal research and writing for attorneys,
whereas others do very little. However, all paralegals must have basic legal
research skills. Furthermore, all paralegals should have general research skills.
For example, as a paralegal you might be asked to locate the address of a
distant court; in a medical malpractice case, you might be asked to research
certain medical conditions.

Critical thinking/analytical skills


(5) Critical thinking skills are essential for anyone working as a legal assistant
and are required for most if not all of the legal work done by paralegals. For
example, the ability to analyze and synthesize facts is required for legal
research and preparing legal documents. It is also needed for reviewing legal
documents and reviewing and evaluating evidence.
Organizational Skills
(6) Case files in a legal office often contain numerous documents. In major
lawsuits the number of documents may be in the thousands. Paralegals may
be responsible for indexing and organizing all of them. If a case is in litigation,
many time deadlines are also critical. Papers may have to be filed in court or
served on other parties to the lawsuit, or court appearances by the attorney
might be set. Someone must keep track of everything; often that someone is
a paralegal.
General office/computer skills
(7) A paralegal in a law office is expected to possess general office skills.
Today that means computer literacy. Word processing skills are a must and
ability to use the Internet effectively and efficiently is also essential. In
addition, knowledge about general filing and billing procedures, proper
telephone etiquette, and general business communication skills is essential.
Regulation of Paralegals
(8) Unlike attorneys. Paralegals are not generally licensed by any government
agency. In fact, in most states anyone can be called a paralegal, although
some states do have regulations. Aside from governmental regulation, the
paralegal profession itself has adopted forms of self-regulation. Two major
professional organizations established professional standards and voluntary
certification for paralegals: the National Association of Legal Assistants
(NALA) and the National Federation of Paralegal Associations (NFPA). NALA
administers a national examination that tests paralegal competency.
Paralegals who pass the examinations are referred to as Certified Legal
Assistants (CLAS). CLAs are required to take several hours of continuing
education regularly to maintain their status. NALA further administers certain
specialty examinations to paralegals who have passed the basic CLA

examination. NFPA also administers a competency examination known as


PACE (Paralegal Advanced Competency Exam).
(9) Both NALA and NFPA seek to enhance the paralegal profession by
adopting codes of ethical standards for paralegals. Neither organization,
however, has authority to punish or discipline anyone who violates these
standards.
(10) Although the paralegal profession has been largely unregulated, changes
are beginning. For example, California enacted legislation limiting the use of
the term paralegal to those who work for attorneys and who have paralegal
education or experience. Continuing legal education is also required.
Paralegal Education
(11) The traditional definition of a paralegal refers to the fact that paralegals
have special training and education. In the early days of the paralegal
profession, in the 1960s and 1970s, few formal paralegal programs existed.
Instead, many law firms hired intelligent, educated individuals and trained
them to be paralegals. As the paralegal profession grew and developed,
formal paralegal education became a prerequisite for many if not most
paralegal jobs. Formal paralegal programs are offered by numerous
educational institutions, both public and private, and vary in length and depth
of material covered. To provide some standard, in the 1970s the American Bar
Association (ABA)established guidelines for paralegal education and
undertook to approve programs that met those guidelines and requested
approval. The requirements for approval relate to curriculum, faculty, and
support services of the educational institution.
40. What two things are paralegals unable to do?
‫أي شيئين لا يستطيع المساعدون القانونيون القيام بهما؟‬
(A) do legal research and prepare tax returns
(B) interview clients and draft documents
(C) appear in court and give legal advice

Passage 8
Composition of Compounds
(1) A chemical formula, in combination with the molar masses of its main
elements, indicates the relative quantities of each element in a compound,
which is extremely useful information. For example, about 30 years ago,
scientists began to suspect that synthetic compounds known as
chlorofluorocarbons (or CFCs) were destroying the ozone in Earth's upper
atmosphere.
(2) Upper atmospheric ozone is important because it shields life on Earth
from the sun's harmful ultraviolet light. CFCs are chemically inert compounds
that were used primarily as refrigerants and industrial solvents. Over time,
however, CFCs began to accumulate in the atmosphere. In the upper
atmosphere, sunlight break bonds within CFCs, resulting in the release of
chlorine atoms. The chlorine atoms then react with ozone. converting it into
02. Therefore, the harmful part of CFCs is the chlorine atoms that they carry.
42. The word shields in Paragraph (2) is closest in meaning to …………………

Passage 9
(Economist)
(1) One of the most important tasks of the professional economist, whether in
government or private sector employment, is to be able to forecast future
economic phenomena. Many economic variables are heavily dependent upon
the state of the economy. For example, forecasts of economic growth are
widely used by economists for all sorts of reasons related to economic policy
and business well-being. The longer the time period the forecast covers, the
greater the uncertainty involved. When the Bank of England, for instance,
makes forecasts of inflation it produces fan charts to reflect this greater
uncertainty.
Types of forecasts
(2) Economists use various types of forecasting methods.
The three main types are:
- statistical forecasts based on simple or sophisticated future extrapolation
techniques
- using models to produce a range of forecasts - this is particularly true of
models of the economy involving complex interrelationships
- forecasts based on intuition, experience or even guesswork, i.e., not
involving statistical methods.
45. The word intuition in Paragraph (2) is closest in meaning to ………………
.........‫) هي الأقرب في المعنى إلى‬2( ‫كلمة "حدس" في البرقراف‬

Passage 10
(1) Take a moment and imagine you are traveling in a country you have never
been to before. Everything about the sights, the smells, the sounds seem
strange. People are speaking a language you do not understand and wearing
clothes unlike yours. But they greet you with a smile and you sense that,
despite the differences you observe, deep down inside these people have the
same feelings as you. But is this true? Do people from opposite ends of the
world really feel the same emotions? While most scholars agree that
members of different cultures may vary in the foods they eat, the languages
they speak, and the holidays they celebrate, there is disagreement about how
much culture shapes people's emotions and feelings including what people
feel, what they express, and what they do during an emotional event.
(2) Social scientists tend to fall into either one of two camps. The Universalist
camp claims that, despite cultural differences in customs and traditions, at a
fundamental level all humans feel similarly. These universalists believed that
emotions developed as a response to the environments of our ancestors, so
they are the same across all cultures. Indeed, people often describe their
emotions as "automatic," "natural," "physiological," and "instinctual,"
supporting the view that emotions are hard-wired and universal.
(3) The social constructivist camp, however, claimed that despite a common
heritage, different groups of humans developed to adapt to their different
environments. And because human environments are so different, people's
emotions are also different in different cultures. For instance, Lutz (1988)
argued that many Western views of emotion assume that emotions are about

the individual and how she or he feels. However, people from Ifaluk (a small
island in the Pacific Ocean) view emotions as "exchanges between
individuals". Social constructivists claim that because people are completely
immersed in their own culture, they are often unaware of how their feelings
are shaped by it. Therefore, emotions can feel automatic, natural,
physiological, and instinctual, and yet still be shaped by culture.
48. What idea does the expression "opposite ends of the world" in Paragraph
(1) repeat?
‫)؟‬1( ‫ما الفكرة التي تكررها عبارة "طرفي نقيض العالم" في البرقراف‬
(A) disagreement

(B) People express their feelings and celebrate holidays differently.
(C) People eat different foods and express their feelings differently.
(D) People speak different languages and experience emotions differently.
50. How is the Universalists' view of emotions different from the social
constructivists' view? ‫كيف تختلف نظرة الكونيين للعواطف عن وجهة نظر البنائية‬

(A) Universalists believe emotions are different between cultures.
(B) Universalists believe emotions are common between cultures.
(C) Universalists believe emotions are shared between siblings.
(D) Universalists believe emotions are different according to age.
51. How is the social constructivists' view of automatic feelings different from
that of universalists? ‫كيف تختلف نظرة البنائية الاجتماعية للمشاعر التلقائية عن‬
‫نظرة الكونيين؟‬
(A) Constructivists believe women and men experience feelings differently.
(B) Constructivists believe we are born with automatic feelings.
(C) Constructivists believe feelings cannot be easily measured.
(D) Constructivists believe we are not aware of how feelings are formed.

Passage 11 Passage A
(1) Humans have used petroleum (or oil) for thousands of years in medicine
and weapons of war. However, the use of this material did not truly surge
until the Industrial Revolution where oil became valuable as both a fuel for
illumination and a lubricant before it became a replacement for wood, coal,
animal power, and other sources of energy. Liquid petroleum had some
significant advantages over other energy sources of the times: it was
concentrated, and it could be transported easily from one place to another.
(2) As oil use boomed, its refined products (such as gasoline and diesel) came
to be used to fuel automobiles, ships, and other vehicles, and a worldwide
system of wells, ships, storage terminals, and pipelines grew. As a result of old
and damaged equipment, human error, and bad luck, extracting oil from the
ground and moving it to refineries and beyond occasionally releases oil into
the environment. The largest spills have released tens of millions of gallons of
oil and have resulted in fouled coastlines, polluted fisheries, dead and injured
wildlife, and lost tourism revenue. The top nine most destructive oil spills are
listed below.

Passage B
(1) The Amoco Cadiz, a very large crude carrier (VLCC) stocked with nearly 69
million gallons of light crude oil, ran aground on shallow rocks off the coast
of Brittany, France, on the morning of March 16, 1978. The ship was navigating
the rough seas of the English Channel when its rudder and hydraulic system
were damaged by a large wave. Rescue tugs attempted to secure towlines to
Cadiz, but sea conditions made the operation difficult. The first of the
towlines broke only a few hours after being secured. By the time a second line
could be attached, the Cadiz had been driven by winds and waves toward the
Brittany coast, where the stem and midsection clipped shallow underwater
rocks. The impact slashed holes in the hull and container tanks and released
the oil. About 200 miles (321 km) of French coast was polluted by the oil slick,
which killed millions of invertebrates, such as mollusks and crustaceans, and
an estimated 20.000 birds, and contaminated oyster beds in the region. In
1990 Amoco Corporation, the owners of the Cadiz agreed to pay $120 million
to French claimants, along with an additional $35 million to Royal Dutch Shell,
which had owned the lost oil.

Passage 12
Floor Damage
1. The damage you described in your letter dated Jury has now been inspected.
2. The faults in the wiring appear to have been caused by dripping water from the floor
above. The electrical contractor, who installed the wiring in February, tells me that the
wall was dry at the time he replaced the old wires. However, we will arrange for repairs
to be made and seal off that section.
3. Dura floor is one of the most hardwearing materials of its kind on the market and we
were surprised to hear that it had worn away within six months, so we made a closer
inspection. We noticed that the floor had been cut into and this seems to have been
the result of dragging heavy metal boxes across it. The one-year guarantee we offer
on our workmanship is against "normal wear and tear", and the treatment the floor
appears to have been subjected to does not fall into this category. I am quite willing to
arrange for the surface to be replaced, but we will have to charge you for the materials
and work involved. If I may, I would like to suggest that you instruct your staff to use
trolleys when shifting heavy containers.
4. I am sorry about the inconvenience you have experienced and will tell the fitters to
repair the damage as soon as I have your confirmation that they can begin work.
58. According to Paragraph (2), the problems with wiring were caused by
………..

Passage 1
The fire
(1) Over the roar of the fire, Mike heard Ben shout, "Hurry! The fire is almost on
us!" Mike's arms were sore and tired, but he swung his axe even faster. He
didn't even stop to wipe the tears from his stinging eyes. The greedy fire kept
coming. The more the fire destroyed, the more it wanted. Mike worked
shoulder to shoulder with the other smokejumpers to build a firebreak. His only
thought was to stop the flaming monster that was raging through the forest.
(2) At last, the smoke jumpers finished the firebreak. If the fire were powerful
enough, it would jump over the firebreak that they had worked so hard to
make. Then they would have to start all over again. Mike stood motionless, his
face black with ash, his shirt wet with sweat. He was too exhausted to move
because he had given all of himself to fighting the fire. He turned his head and
noticed Ben watching him.
(3) Suddenly all that Ben had taught Mike about proving his bravery was clear.
A man was not brave if he did something just to prove his courage. He was
brave only when he forgot about himself. Today Mike had showed that he
cared very much about the others with whom he was working.

Giant Panda
1. An American-born giant panda will soon be traveling to China. The Chinese
government has an agreement with foreign zoos to lend giant pandas out only for
scientific study. After a few years, they, and any cubs they may produce, must all be
returned to China. Mei Lan, a three-year-old female, is being prepared for her trip to
China, where her parents were born. A special FedEx flight from the U.S. is being
arranged for her.
2. Chinese zookeepers are getting ready for her arrival by planning a special diet, and
even language lessons for her. They are advertising for a tutor to teach Mei Lan
Chinese. The caretakers at her new home, the Chengdu Panda Research Center in
Sichuan, want to help her adapt quickly and feel comfortable in her new environment.
Mei Lan has lived at a zoo in the city of Atlanta, Georgia, since her birth, and she is
unfamiliar with Chinese. The teacher must have a bachelor's degree or higher and be
fluent in both English and Chinese.
24. According to Paragraph (2), why do the Chinese zookeepers want Mei Lan
to learn Chinese? ‫ لماذا يريد حراس الحديقة الصينيون أن تتعلم مي‬،)2( ‫وف ًقا للبرقراف‬

Passage 3
Copyright History
(1) Our written, recorded, and broadcast world is surrounded by warnings
about copyright. If you look in the opening pages of most books, you will find
a warning like this:
"All rights reserved. No part of this book may be used or reproduced by any
means, graphic, electronic, or mechanical, including photocopying, recording,
taping, or by any information storage retrieval system without the written
permission of the publisher except in the case of brief quotations embodied
in critical articles and reviews".
(2) Even more familiar is the FBI warning at the start of most DVDs viewed by
Americans today:
"All rights reserved. These DVDs are authorized for sale or rent only in the
country where originally sold (i. e., only in the U.S. or only in Canada,
respectively). Unauthorized reproduction, distribution, or exhibition violates
federal laws with severe penalties and violates Pictures Home Entertainment's
standard terms of trade"
(3) These statements inform the viewer that they must respect "all rights",
may not use or reproduce the contents, or endure "severe penalties". Just
what are the "All rights" that are "reserved"? Can you reserve just any rights?
Do you have any rights?
(4) Copyright is a right given to authors and inventors in the Constitution. It is
"the exclusive right to their respective writings and discoveries". (Article 1,
Section 8 Constitutional Convention, 1790). The "exclusive right" means that
the author, and the author alone, has the right to publish and distribute his
work. The same clause includes inventors and their inventions. Many authors
will authorize a publisher to print and distribute their work. To do this they
must transfer their rights to reproduce and to distribute to the publisher,
normally for a limited period of time. Likewise, an inventor patents her work,
then sells patent rights to industries ready to use it.
(5) Since 1790, in different acts of Congress, music, photography, movies,
computer software, graphic arts, and boat hull designs have all been granted

copyright protection. Both legislation and court cases have led to the
development of several "doctrines", or common practices, about copyright.
(6) A "fixed medium" is anything that can be returned to at a later time, which
will display the same information or illustration as before. Paper, computer
storage, stone or clay, paints, and a computerized piano keyboard's recording
system all are considered fixed mediums. No registration or special symbols
are needed to gain copyright; it is present as soon as the somewhat original
work is created.
(7) The copyright owner has six basic rights: to make copies, to distribute
those copies; to make derivative works; to perform or display the work in
public; and to perform the work by means of a "digital audio transmission."
Any of these rights can be licensed to another person or a company such as a
publisher.
(8) Making copies refers to making any type of copy: a photocopy, a
photograph, a hand-drawn copy that is indistinguishable or close to it; and
computer copies of me any sort. These actions count as infringement even if
it can be shown that no one has viewed the work.
26. What is a copyright? ‫ما هي حقوق النشر؟‬
(A) the right given to authors and inventors for their writings and discoveries
(B) the permission to sell or rent only in the country where originally sold
(C) the transfer of rights to a publisher or an industry
(D) the ability to accurately copy something
27. What do most Americans see at the start of DVDs?
‫ماذا يرى معظم الأمريكيين في بداية أقراص دي في دي؟‬
(A) an FBI warning
(B) an ID number

Passage 4
Hot deserts
(1) Hot deserts are found near the tropics of Cancer and Capricorn. The
largest hot desert is the Sahara in Africa which covers the whole northern part
of the continent.
(2) Hot deserts have an extreme climate and challenging environment. There
is very little plant or animal life because of the difficult climate. Few plant and
animal species are specialized enough to survive there. Plants and animals
which do survive have adapted to difficult conditions. The biotic (living) parts
of the hot desert and the abiotic (non-living) parts of the hot desert rely on
one another - a change in one will result in a change in the other.
(3) The climate is very hot. Summer day-time temperatures can be more than
40°C. However, at night the temperature can drop below 0°C. The climate is
also very dry with less than 250mm of rain a year. Hot deserts have two
seasons: summer, when the daytime temperature is between 35 and 40°C,
and winter, when the temperature is between 20 and 30°C.
(4) Desert soils are thin with sand and rocks and are generally grey in color.
They are very dry. When it does rain, they soak up the water very quickly. The
surface of the soil may appear crusty. This is due to the lack of rain. In
summer, it is so hot that the water is brought up to the surface of the soil by
evaporation. As the water evaporates, salts are left behind on the surface.

29. What is the writer's main purpose? ‫ما هو الغرض الرئيسي للكاتب؟‬
(A) to study geography
(B) to convince
(C) to inform
(D) to entertain
30. What is one important point that the writer mentions?
‫ما هي النقطة المهمة التي ذكرها الكاتب؟‬
(A) Deserts include hot and cold deserts.
(B) Hot deserts have two seasons: summer and winter.
(C) The soil in hot deserts is salty because of evaporation.
(D) The climate and environment of hot deserts are difficult for life.

Passage 5
The human cost of Stalin's 5-year plans
(1) In 1927. Stalin's main aim for his country, Russia, was to modernize its
industry. His 5-year plans set ambitious targets for important heavy industries
such as coal, iron, oil, and electricity.
(2) However, there was a human cost to achieving the tares set in the 5-year
plans. This cost was paid by the workers. Many foreign experts and engineers
were called in by Stalin to help with work and in their letters and reports they
are amazed by at the toughness of the Russian people and how hard they
worked. The most famous worker was Alexei Stakhanov. In 1935, with two
helpers, he managed to cut 102 tons of coal in one day's work. This was
fourteen times the average. Stakhanov became a hero of the country, and the
Rovernment newspapers and radio encouraged all Russian workers to be like
him.
(3) Life was very difficult under Stalin. Workers had targets to meet and were
punished if they did not meet them. Factory discipline was strict, and
punishments were hard Workers who were late or absent would lose their
jobs and sometimes their flat or house as well. On the great engineering
projects, such as dams and canals, worker conditions were very poor and
there were many accidents and deaths. It is estimated that 100,000 workers
died in the construction of the Belomor canal.
32. What is one important idea related to the workers that the writer
mentions in paragraph (2)? ‫ما هي إحدى الأفكار المهمة المتعلقة بالعاملين والتي‬
‫)؟‬2( ‫ذكرها الكاتب في البرقراف‬
(A) They had to pay money.

(D) They were hard working.


33. What is one important idea mentioned about Alexei Stakhanov in
Paragraph (2)?
‫)؟‬2( ‫ما هي إحدى الأفكار المهمة المذكورة عن أليكسي ستاخانوف في البرقراف‬
(A) He was an example of a good worker.
(B) He had two helpers.
(C) He worked in 1935.
(D) He was a coal worker
34. Why does the writer mention the example of the construction of the
Belomar Canal?
‫لماذا يذكر الكاتب مثال بناء قناة بلومار؟‬
(A) to show how workers were punished
(B) to show a great engineering project
(C) to show the poor work conditions
(D) to show the difficulty of living under Stalin

35. What is the main topic of the passage? ‫ما هو الموضوع الرئيسي للقطعه؟‬
(A) hard work in Russia's factories
(B) Stalin's successful 5-year plan
(C) Russia's development in 1927
(D) life working under Stalin
Passage 6
Improving Memory
(1) Now and then we are dismayed at our forgetfulness – at our embarrassing
inability to recall someone's name, at forgetting to bring up a point in
conversation, at forgetting to bring along something important, at finding
ourselves standing in a room unable to recall why we are there. What can we
do to minimize such lapses? Much as biology benefits medicine and botany
benefits agriculture, so can the psychology of memory benefit education.
Sprinkled throughout this chapter and summarized here for easy reference
are concrete suggestions for improving memory.

(2) Study repeatedly to boost long-term recall. Overlearn To learn a name, say
it to yourself after being introduced; wait a few seconds and say it again; wait
longer and say it again. To provide many separate study sessions, make use
of life's little intervals - riding on the bus, walking across campus, waiting for
class to start.
(3) Spend more time rehearsing or actively thinking about the material.
Speedreading (skimming) complex material - with minimal rehearsal - yields
little retention. Rehearsal and critical reflection help more. It pays to study
actively.
(4) Make the material personally meaningful. To build a network of retrieval
cues, take thorough text and class notes in your own words. Mindlessly
repeating information is relatively ineffective. Better to form images,
understand and organize information, relate the material to what you already
know or have experienced and write it out in your own words. Without such
cues, you may be stuck when a question uses phrasing different from the rote
forms you memorized. To increase retrieval cues, form as many associations
as possible.
36. What does the passage say about memory? ‫ماذا تقول القطعه عن الذاكرة؟‬
(A) It comes easily.
(B) It is impossible to improve.
(C) You need it for conversation.
(D) You need to work actively for it.
37. What is one way to help remember things? ‫ما هي إحدى الطرق للمساعدة‬
‫في تذكر الأشياء؟‬
(A) speed reading
(B) summarizing
(C) note taking
(D) making recordings
38. Which word or words can we use to replace the word so in Paragraph (1)?

Passage 7
Vitamins and Minerals
(1) Vitamins are organic compounds that the body needs in small amounts to
function properly. Humans need 13 different vitamins, which have many roles
in the body. For example, Vitamin A helps maintain good vision. Vitamin B
helps form red blood cells. Vitamin K is needed for blood to clot when you
have a cut or other wound.
(2) Some vitamins are produced in the body. For example, Vitamin D is made
in the skin when it is exposed to sunlight. Vitamins B and K are produced by
bacteria that normally live inside the body. Most other vitamins must come
from foods. Foods that are good sources of vitamins include whole grains,
vegetables, fruits, and milk.
(3) Not getting sufficient vitamins can cause health problems. For example,
too little vitamin C causes a disease called scurvy. People with scurvy have
bleeding gums, nosebleeds, and other symptoms.
(4) Minerals are chemical elements that are needed for body processes.
Minerals that you need in small amounts include iodine, iron, and zinc.
Minerals have many important roles in the body. For example, calcium and
phosphorus are needed for strong bones and teeth. Potassium and sodium
are needed for muscles and nerves to work normally.

(5) Your body cannot produce any of the minerals that it needs. Instead, you
must get minerals from the foods you eat. Good sources of minerals include
milk, leafy green vegetables, and whole grains. Not getting enough minerals
can cause health problems. For example, too little calcium may cause
osteoporosis. This is a disease in which bones become soft and break easily.
Getting too much of some minerals can also cause health problems. Many
people get too much sodium from packaged foods and adding table salt. Too
much sodium causes high blood pressure in some people.
41. What is one negative effect of taking too much sodium?
‫ما هو أحد الآثار السلبية لتناول الكثير من الصوديوم؟‬
(A) high blood pressure
(B) weak bones
(C) bleeding
(D) headache
42. Why is vitamin K needed in the body? ‫لماذا يحتاج الجسم إلى فيتامين ك؟‬
(A) to help muscles work normally
(B) to help cuts stop bleeding
(C) to make red blood cells
(D) to improve the health of the skin

Passage 9
Inflation
(1) Inflation is when most prices in an entire economy are rising. However,
there is an extreme form of inflation called hyperinflation. This occurred in
Germany between 1921 and 1928, and more recently in Zimbabwe between
2008 and 2009. In November 2008, Zimbabwe had an inflation rate of 79.6
billion percent. In contrast, in 2014, the United States had an average annual
rate of inflation of 1.6%. Zimbabwe's inflation rate was so high it is difficult to
comprehend, so let's put it into context. It is equivalent to price increases of

222
‫أكاديمية عايد للتدريب‬
‫ وإلا تتحمل المسئولية كاملة أمام الجهات المختصة‬0568955606 ‫هذه الملفات خاصة بأكاديمية عايد محمية بحقوق حفظ ونسخ فلا تحاول الحصول عليها بط ريقة غير شرعية إلا عن طريق‬

98% per day. This means that, from one day to the next, prices essentially
double.
(2) What is life like in an economy afflicted with hyperinflation? Most of you
reading this will have never experienced this phenomenon. The government
adjusted prices for commodities in Zimbabwean dollars several times each
day. There was no desire to hold on to currency since it lost value by the
minute. The people there spent a great deal of time getting rid of any cash
they acquired by purchasing whatever food or other commodities they could
find. At one point, a loaf of bread cost 550 million Zimbabwean dollars.
Teachers' salaries were in the trillions a month; however, this was equivalent
to only one U.S. dollar a day.
(3) At its height, it took 621.984.228 Zimbabwean dollars to purchase one U.S.
dollar. Government agencies had no money to pay their workers, so they
started printing money to pay their bills rather than raising taxes. Rising prices
caused the government to enact price controls on private businesses, which
led to shortages and the emergence of black markets where prices rose as
fast as the Government printed more money. In 2009, the country abandoned
its currency and allowed people to use foreign currencies for purchases. The
value of foreign currencies did not change much, so prices in foreign
currencies were steadier. This helped reduce the hyperinflation.
(4) How does this happen? How can both the government and the economy
fail to function at the most basic level? Before we consider these extreme
cases of hyperinflation, let's first look at inflation itself.
(5) Inflation is a general and on-going rise in the level of prices in an entire
economy. Inflation does not refer to a change in relative prices. A relative
price change occurs when you see that the price of tuition has risen, but the
price of laptops has fallen. Inflation, on the other hand, means that there is
pressure for prices to rise in most markets in the economy. In addition, price
increases in the supply-and-demand model were one time events,
representing a shift from a previous equilibrium to a new one. Inflation
implies an on-going rise in prices. If inflation happened for one year and then
stopped, then it would not be inflation anymore.

(6) The most commonly cited measure of inflation in the United States is the
Consumer Price Index (CPT). Government statisticians at the U.S. Bureau of
Labor Statistics calculate the CPI based on the prices in a fixed basket of
goods and services that represents the purchases of the average family of
four. In recent years, the statisticians have paid considerable attention to a
subtle problem: that the change in the total cost of buying a fixed basket of
goods and services over time is conceptually not quite the same as the
change in the cost of living, because the cost of living represents how much it
costs for a person to feel that his or her consumption provides an equal level
of satisfaction or utility. To understand the distinction, imagine that over the
past 10 years, the cost of purchasing a fixed basket of goods may be a
misleading measure of how your cost of living has changed.
(7) Alternatively, imagine that people are utterly indifferent to whether they
have peaches or other types of fruit. Now, if peach prices rise, people
completely switch to other fruit choices and the average price of food does
not change at all. A fixed and unchanging basket of goods assumes that
consumers are locked into buying exactly the same goods, regardless of price
changes, not a very likely assumption. Thus, substitution bias the rise in the
price of a fixed basket of goods over time tends to overstate the rise in a
consumer's true cost of living, because it does not take into account that the
person can substitute away from goods whose relative prices have risen.
(8) The other major problem in using a fixed basket of goods as the basis for
calculating inflation is how to deal with the arrival of improved versions of
older goods or altogether new goods. Consider the problem that arises if a
cereal is improved by adding 12 essential vitamins and minerals and also if a
box of the cereal costs 5% more. It would clearly be misleading to count the
entire resulting higher price as inflation, because the new price reflects a
higher quality (or at least different) product. Ideally, one would like to know
how much of the higher price is due to the quality change, and how much of
it is just a higher price.
47. What are two things that happen when there is hyperinflation?
‫ما هما الشيئان اللذان يحدثان عندما يكون هناك تضخم مفرط؟‬
(A) People get rid of their cash and inflation rises to 1.6%.
(B) Prices rise several times a day and inflation rises to 1.6%.

(C) People use foreign currency and there is a shortage of goods in the
market.
(D) The government adjusts prices several times each day and people get rid
of cash.
48. What two things did the Zimbabwean government do that increased
hyperinflation?
‫ما الشيئين الذين فعلتهما حكومة زيمبابوي لزيادة التضخم المفرط؟‬
(A) did not raise taxes and abandoned the Zimbabwean dollar
(B) printed too much money and allowed the people to use foreign currency
(C) printed too much money and enacted price controls resulting in black
markets
(D) enacted price controls resulting in black markets and allowed the people
to use foreign currency
49. What two things happen when the price of a good goes up?
‫ما الشيئين الذين يحدث عندما يرتفع سعر السلعة؟‬
(A) Consumers purchase less of it and seek out substitutes instead.
(B) The quality of the good will improve, but consumers will seek out
substitutes.
(C) Consumers purchase less of the good, but the quality of the good will
improve.
(D) Consumers will spend more money on the good because they will not
change their buying habits and goods with falling prices will be important.

Passage 10 Worms
A worm is a program that can replicate itself and send copies from computer
to computer across network connections. Upon arrival, the worm may be
activated to replicate and propagate again. In addition to propagation, the
worm usually performs some unwanted function. An e-mail virus has some of
the characteristics of a worm because it propagates itself from system to
system. However, we can still classify it as a virus because it uses a document
modified to contain viral macro content and requires human action. A worm

Passage 11
Knowledge and Technology
(1) It is necessary to address the question of whether the development of
digital technologies has actually changed the nature of knowledge, because if
that is the case, then this will strongly influence what needs to be taught as
well as how it will be taught.
(2) Connectivists such as Siemens and Downes argue that the internet has
changed the nature of knowledge. They argue that 'important' or 'valid'
knowledge now is different from prior forms of knowledge, particularly
academic knowledge. Downes (2007) has argued that new technologies allow
for the deinstitutionalization of learning. Chris Anderson, the editor of Wired
Magazine and now CEO of TED Talks, has argued (2008) that massive meta-
data correlations can replace 'traditional scientific approaches to creating new
knowledge.

(3) Back in the 1960s Marshall McLuhan (1964) argued that the medium is the
message: the way information is represented and transmitted is changed and
so is our focus and understanding as information moves between and within
different media.
(4) One way knowledge is certainly changing is in the way it is represented.
Socrates criticized writing because it could not lead to 'true' knowledge which
came only from verbal dialogue and oratory. Writing however is important
because it provides a permanent record of knowledge. The printing press was
important because it enabled the written word to spread to many more
people. As a consequence, scholars could challenge and better interpret,
through reflection, what others had written and more accurately and carefully
argue their own positions.

53. What word does the expression "the way information is represented and
transmitted" repeat? ‫ما هي الكلمة التي تكررها عبارة "طريقة تمثيل المعلومات‬

and that they can communicate with one another (Surat an-Naml, 18) and
work together to produce food (Surat al-Nahl, 68-9). Modern science, more
than 1,400 years afterwards, has accepted that this information is indeed
correct. Now, scientists in the United Kingdom are learning that some of
these amazing creatures may also have feelings and emotions similar to those
of humans.
(2) At Newcastle University, they are trying to discover how some insects feel.
In recent years, honeybee numbers have been declining worldwide at a
disturbing rate. Many explanations have been given for this. Some say the bees
are dying because of disease and pesticides. Others say it may be due to
pollution or microwave towers. At any rate, this is a very serious situation, for
humans as well as for the bees. At least one-third of the world's crops depend
on bees. Farmers are worried. What about the bees? How do they feel? Are
they scared, sad or depressed?
(3) The researchers trained a group of bees to tell the difference between two
smells. After one smell, they were always given a sweet sugar reward. After the
other smell, they were given a bitter substance. They quickly learned to choose
the smell with the sweet prize and to stick out their tongues to get it. The
scientists wanted to see what the bees would do if they were put in a stressful

situation. They shook up half of the bees, to make them think they were in
danger. These stressed bees refused to put out their tongues for new smells,
and only chose the old smell which they knew would be followed by a sweet
treat. Even though there was an equal chance that a strange smell would taste
good, it seemed they believed it would taste bad and were afraid to try it. These
bees had become “pessimists". The other half-the unstressed bees-were much
more likely to try tastes from new smells, thus remaining “optimists”.
(4) When humans are stressed, anxious, worried or depressed, they have lower
levels of the brain hormone serotonin. So did the stressed bees. This may mean
that the feelings of anxious and stressed bees are similar to those of humans
with mood disorders. This knowledge, along with further investigations into
bee behavior and "feelings" can hopefully be used to understand and remedy
their declining numbers, for their sake and for ours.

Passage 1
Sleep Disorders ‫اضطرابات النوم‬
(1) The idea that "everyone needs 8 hours of sleep" is untrue. Newborns spend
nearly two-thirds of their day asleep, most adults no more than one-third. Age.
related differences in average time spent sleeping are rivaled by differences in
the normal amount of sleep among individuals at any age. Some people thrive
with fewer than 6 hours of sleep per night; others regularly sleep 9 hours or
more. Sleep patterns may be genetically influenced. When two researchers,
Wilse Webb and Scott Campbell, checked the pattern and duration of sleep
among fraternal and identical twins, only the identical twins were strikingly
similar.
(2) Whatever their normal need for sleep, some 10 to 15 percent of adults
complain of insomnia - persistent problems in falling or staying asleep. True
insomnia is not the occasional inability to sleep that we experience when
anxious or excited. For a stressed organism, alertness is natural and adaptive.
Moreover, from middle age on, sleep is seldom uninterrupted. Occasional
awakenings become the norm, not something to fret over or treat with
medication.
(3) Sometimes people fret unnecessarily about their sleep. Scientists have
learned to doubt people's fretful sleep reports. In laboratory studies, insomnia
complainers do get less sleep than others, but they typically overestimate, by
about double, how long it took them to fall asleep, and they underestimate by
nearly half how long they actually slept. Even if we've been awake only an hour
or two, we may think we've had little sleep. because it's the waking part we
remember. When researchers awaken people repeatedly during the night,
some recall having slept soundly.
(4) The most common quick fixes for true insomnia - sleeping pills - can
aggravate the problem. Both reduce REM sleep and can leave a person with
next-day blahs. With continued use, one needs bigger doses to get an effect,
and when the drug is discontinued, the insomnia may worsen. Scientists are
searching for natural chemicals that are abundant during sleep and might be

synthesized as a sleep aid without side effects. In the meantime, sleep experts
offer other natural alternatives:
• Relax before bedtime, using dimmer light.
• Avoid caffeine (this includes chocolate) after late afternoon and avoid rich
foods before bedtime. A glass of milk may help. (Milk provides raw materials
for the manufacture of serotonin, a neurotransmitter that facilitates sleep.)
• Sleep on a regular schedule (rise at the same time even after a restless night)
and avoid naps. A regular sleep schedule boosts daytime alertness, too, as
shown in a recent experiment in which University of Arizona students slept 7.5
hours a night on either a varying or consistent schedule
• Exercise regularly but not in the late evening. (Late afternoon is best.)
• Reassure yourself that the temporary loss of sleep causes no great harm,
certainly nothing worth losing sleep over.
• If nothing else works, aim for less sleep; go to bed later or get up earlier.

(5) More rare but also more severe than insomnia are the sleep disorders
narcolepsy and sleep apnea. People with narcolepsy (from narco, "numbness,
"and lepsy," seizure") suffer periodic, overwhelming sleepiness. This usually
lasts less than 5 minutes but sometimes occurs at the most inopportune times,
perhaps just after taking a terrific swing at a softball or when laughing loudly
or shouting angrily. In severe cases, the person may collapse directly into a
brief period of REM sleep, with its accompanying loss of muscular tension.
Those who suffer from narcolepsy - 1 in 2000 people, estimates the Stanford
University Center for Narcolepsy - must live with extra caution.
(6) The National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute reports that 1 in 25 people
(mostly overweight men) suffer from sleep apnea - a treatable disorder that
was unknown before modern sleep research. They intermittently stop
breathing during sleep. (Apnea means "stopping respiration”) After an airless
minute or so, decreased blood oxygen arouses the sleeper to awaken and snort
in air for a few seconds. The process can repeat more than 400 times a night,
depriving the person of slow-wave sleep. Apart from complaints of sleepiness
and irritability during the day - and their friends' complaints about their loud
"snoring"- apnea sufferers are often unaware of their disorder.

Passage 2
Oceans
(1) The oceans make up 70 percent of the planet and contain 97 percent of all
the water on Earth. It also makes up the vast majority of water stores, the
majority of the planet's moisture, terrestrial energy, and heat from the sun. This
energy is transferred between the equator and the two poles by larger surface
currents, by winds and deep ocean currents driven by differences in ocean
density. It also provides the moisture and energy for storm systems and
ultimately global climates.
(2) As terrestrial creatures, humans think of the importance of the planet's land
surfaces, yet Earth is a planet consisting of 70 percent water. From space, the
dominance of water is obvious because most of it is stored in Earth's oceans.
(3) Earth would not be the same planet without its oceans. The oceans, along
with the atmosphere, keep Earth's surface temperatures fairly constant
worldwide. Some places on Earth reach as cold as -20 degrees Celsius, whereas
other places reach as hot as 55 degrees Celsius. Yet on other planets like
Mercury, temperatures range from -180 degrees Celsius to 430 degrees Celsius.

Passage 3
Cost Benefit Analysis
(1) Cost-benefit analysis weighs the gains and losses to different individuals and
suggests carrying out changes that provide greater benefits than harm. For
example, a property tax used to build a local park creates a benefit to those
who use the park, but harms those who own property (although, by increasing
property values, even non-users obtain some benefits). Since some of the
taxpayers won't use the park, it won't be the case that everyone benefits on
balance. Cost-benefit analysis weighs the costs against the benefits. In the case
of the park, the costs are readily monetized (turned into dollars), because the
costs to the tax-payers are just the amount of the tax.
(2) In contrast, the benefits are much more challenging to estimate.
Conceptually, the benefits are the amount the park users would be willing to
pay to use the park if the park charged admission. However, if the park doesn't
charge admission, we would have to estimate willingness-to-pay. In principle,
the park provides greater benefits than costs if the benefits to the users exceed
the losses to the taxpayers.
(3) The first step in the process is to compile a comprehensive list of all the
costs and benefits associated with the project or decision. Costs should include
direct and indirect costs, intangible costs, opportunity costs and the cost of
potential risks. Benefits should include all direct and indirect revenues and
intangible benefits, such as increased production from improved employee
safety and morale, or increased sales from customer goodwill.
28. What is the main idea in the passage? ‫ما هي الفكرة الرئيسية في المقطع؟‬
(A) Employee production increases when they get more benefits.
(B) Some taxpayers may benefit less from certain public services.
(C) Indirect and intangible costs are always important to consider.
(D) Cost-benefit analysis helps to reduce costs and increase benefits.

(B) Property values are used to find out property taxes.
(C) Property values increase and decrease at different times.
(D) Property values are equal to the gains and losses people have.

Passage 4
Stages or Economic Activity
(1) There are three main stages of economic activity, these stages are typical of
nearly all production and they are called the levels of economic — or business
- activity:
(2) Stage 1 is called the primary stage of production. This stage involves the
earth's natural resources. Activities in the primary sector of industry include
farming, fishing, forestry and the extraction of natural materials, such as oil and
copper ore.
(3) Stage 2 is called the secondary stage of production. This stage involves
taking the materials and resources provided by the primary sector and
converting them into manufactured or processed goods. Activities in the

235
‫أكاديمية عايد للتدريب‬
‫ وإلا تتحمل المسئولية كاملة أمام الجهات المختصة‬0568955606 ‫هذه الملفات خاصة بأكاديمية عايد محمية بحقوق حفظ ونسخ فلا تحاول الحصول عليها بط ريقة غير شرعية إلا عن طريق‬

secondary sector of industry include building and construction, car


manufacturing and computer assembly.
(4) Stage 3 is called the tertiary stage of production. This stage involves
providing services to both consumers and other businesses. Activities in the
tertiary sector of industry include transport, banking, retail, insurance, hotels
and hairdressing.
(5) In some countries, primary industries such as mining employ many more
people than manufacturing or service industries. These tend to be countries —
often called developing countries — where manufacturing industry has only
recently been established. As most people still live in the rural areas with low
incomes, there is little demand for services such as transport, hotels and
insurance. The levels of both employment and output in the primary sector in
these countries are likely to be high. In countries which started up
manufacturing industries many years ago, the secondary and tertiary sectors
are likely to employ many more workers than the primary sector. The level of
output in the primary sector is often small compared to the other two sectors.
32. What is the main topic of the passage? ‫ما هو الموضوع الرئيسي للقطعه؟‬
(A) Production is the first stage.
(B) The level of output is highest in stage three.
(C) Employment is highest in stage two.
(D) Economic activity occurs in three stages.
33. Which stage of production are hotels an example of?
‫ما هي مراحل الإنتاج التي تعتبر الفنادق مثالا ً عليها؟‬
(A) Primary
(B) Secondary
(C) Tertiary
(D) Elementary
34. What is one important idea in Paragraph (3) related to the secondary
stage of production? ‫) المتعلقة بالمرحلة‬3( ‫ما هي إحدى الأفكار المهمة في البرقراف‬

(A) Employment is high.
(B) Services are performed.
(C) New goods are made.

(D) It is the most important stage.

Passage 5

(1) Since 1876, when Henry Heinz first started selling ketchup in glass bottles,
people have been arguing over the best way to get the condiment out of the
packaging and onto their plates. A physicist decided to apply a little science to
the matter and now has found what he calls a scientifically optimized method
for getting the ketchup to flow.
(2) While it may look like a liquid, ketchup is actually a non-Newtonian fluid.
Instead of flowing consistently the viscosity of these substances change with
the amount of force put on them.
(3) Because of the physics that govern ketchup's viscosity, packaging them in
glass bottles makes it much harder to hit that pressure sweet spot. But if you'
re dedicated on sticking to the classics and not switching to squeeze bottles,
Stickland has developed a method based on physics for coaxing ketchup out
of the bottle, Daisy Meager reports for Munchies.
(4) You have to start by giving the sauce a good shake," Stickland says in a
statement.
(5) The next step is to flip the bottle upside-down (with the lid still on). Then,
shake the bottle until the ketchup has slid into its neck. Lastly, turn the bottle
so that it's pointing towards your meal at a 45-degree angle and uncap. If
needed, Stickland says to give the ketchup a little "encouragement" by tapping
on the bottom of the bottle-gently at first, but with increasing force until it
finally slides out and onto the plate. "The trick is to get the sauce flowing, but
not too fast."
35. What is the most important step in getting ketchup to flow?
‫ما هي أهم خطوة في جعل الكاتشب يتدفق؟‬
(A) holding the bottle at a 45-degree angle
(B) mixing the ketchup with water
(C) keeping the ketchup warm

Passage 7
Human Impact on the Water Cycle
(1) Human impact on precipitation
There are a number of ways in which human activity affects precipitation. Cloud
seeding has probably been one of the more successful. Rain requires particles,
238
‫أكاديمية عايد للتدريب‬
‫ وإلا تتحمل المسئولية كاملة أمام الجهات المختصة‬0568955606 ‫هذه الملفات خاصة بأكاديمية عايد محمية بحقوق حفظ ونسخ فلا تحاول الحصول عليها بط ريقة غير شرعية إلا عن طريق‬

such as dust and ice, on which to form. Seeding introduces silver iodide, solid
CO2 (dry ice) or ammonium nitrate to attract water droplets.
(2) Human impact on evaporation and transpiration
The human impact on evaporation and transpiration is relatively small in
relation to the rest of the hydrological cycle but is nevertheless important.
(3) Dams – there has been an increase in evaporation due to the construction
of large dams. For example, Lake Nasser behind the Aswan Dam loses up to a
third of its water due to evaporation. Water loss can be reduced by using
chemical sprays on the surface, by building sand-fill dams and by covering the
dams with plastic.
(4) Urbanization leads to a huge reduction in evapotranspiration due to the
lack of vegetation. There may also be a slight increase in evaporation because
of higher temperatures and increased surface storage.
(5) Human impact on infiltration and soil water
Human activity has a great impact on infiltration and soil water. Land use
changes are important. Urbanization creates an impermeable surface, with
compacted soil. This reduces infiltration and increases overland runoff and
flood peaks. Infiltration is up to five times greater under forests compared with
grassland.

Passage 9
Greenhouse effect
(1) The greenhouse effect is a naturally occurring process that aids in heating
the Earth's surface and atmosphere. It results from the fact that certain
atmospheric gases, such as carbon dioxide, water vapor, and methane, are
able to change the energy balance of the planet by absorbing long wave
radiation emitted from the Earth's surface. Without the greenhouse effect life
on this planet would probably not exists, as the average temperature of the
Earth would be a chilly-18 º Celsius, rather than the present 15 º.
(2) As energy from the Sun passes through the atmosphere a number of
things take place. A portion of the energy (26% globally) is reflected or
scattered back to space by clouds and other atmospheric particles. About
19% of the energy available is absorbed by clouds, gases (like ozone), and
particles in the atmosphere. Of the remaining 55% of the solar energy
passing through the Earth’s atmosphere. 4% is reflected from the surface
back to space. On average, about 51% of the Sun's radiation reaches the
surface. This energy is then used in a number of processes, including the
heating of the ground surface; the melting of ice and snow and the
evaporation of water; and plant photosynthesis.
(3) The heating of the ground by sunlight causes the Earth's surface to
become a radiator of energy in the long wave band (sometimes called in the
radiation). This emission of energy is generally directed to space. However,
only a small portion of this energy actually makes it back to space. The

241
‫أكاديمية عايد للتدريب‬
‫ وإلا تتحمل المسئولية كاملة أمام الجهات المختصة‬0568955606 ‫هذه الملفات خاصة بأكاديمية عايد محمية بحقوق حفظ ونسخ فلا تحاول الحصول عليها بط ريقة غير شرعية إلا عن طريق‬

majorly of the outgoing infrared radiation is absorbed by the greenhouse


gases.
(4) Absorption of long wave radiation by the atmosphere Causes additional
heat energy to be added to the Earth's atmospheric system. The now warner
atmospheric greenhouse gas molecules begin radiating long wave energy in
all directions. Over 90% of this emission of long wave energy is directed back
to the Earth's surface where it once again is absorbed by the surface. The
heating of the ground by the long wave radiation causes the ground surface
to once again radiate, repeating the cycle described above, again and again,
until no more long wave is available for absorption.
(5) The amount of heat energy added to the atmosphere by the greenhouse
effect is controlled by the concentration of greenhouse in the Earth's
atmosphere. All of the major greenhouse gases have increased in
concentration since the beginning of the industrial Revolution. As a result of
these higher concentrations. Scientists predict that the greenhouse effect will
be enhanced and the Earth's climate will become warmer. Predicting the
amount of warming is accomplished by computer modeling Computer
models suggest that a doubling of the concentration of the main greenhouse
as carbon dioxide, may raise the average global temperature between 1 and
3º Celsius. However, the numeric equations of computer models do not
accurately simulate the effects of a number of possible negative feedbacks.
For example, many of the models cannot property Simulate late the negative
effects that increased cloudier. These extra clouds would then reflect a
greater proportion of the sun’s energy back to space reducing the amount of
molar radiation absorbed by the atmosphere and the Earth’s surface. With
less solar energy being absorbed at the surface, the effects of an enhanced
greenhouse effect may be counteracted.
(6) A number of gases are involved in the human caused enhancement of the
greenhouse effect. These gases include carbon dioxide (CO2): methane
(CH4): nitrous oxide: (N2O): chlorofluorocarbons (CFC): and troposphere
ozone (O3). Of these gases the single most important gas in carbon dioxide,
which accounts for about 55% of the change in the intensity of the Earth’s
242
‫أكاديمية عايد للتدريب‬

greenhouse effect. The contributions of the other gases are 25% for
chlorofluorocarbons, 15% for methane, and 5% for nitrous oxide. Ozone’s
contribution to the enhancement of greenhouse effect is still yet to be
quantified.
(7) Average concentrations of atmospheric carbon dioxide in the year 2005
were about 380 parts per million. Prior to 1700, levels of carbon dioxide were
about 280 parts per million. This increase in carbon dioxide in the atmosphere
is primarily due to the activities of humans. Beginning in 1700, societal change
brought about by the industrial Revolution. Increased the amount of carbon
dioxide entering the atmosphere. The major Sources of this gas include fossil
fuel combustion for industry, Transportation, space heating, electricity
generation, and cooking, and vegetation changes in natural prairie,
woodland, and forested ecosystems. Emissions from fossil fuel combustion
account for about 65% of the extra carbon dioxide now found in our
atmosphere. The remaining 35% is derived from deforestation and the
conversion of prairie, woodland and forested ecosystems primarily into
agricultural systems.
(8) Artificially created chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs) are the strongest
greenhouse gas per molecule. However, low concentrations in the
atmosphere reduce their overall importance in the enhancement of the
greenhouse effect. Current measurements in the atmosphere indicate that the
concentration of these chemicals may soon begin declining because of
reduced emissions. Reports of the development of ozone holes over the
North and Saud Boles and a general decline in global Stratosphere ozone
level over the last two decades has caused many nations to cut back on their
production and use of the chemicals. In 1987, the signing of the Montreal
Protocol agreement by forty-six nations established an immediate timetable
for the global reduction of CFC production and use.
(9) Since 1750, methane concentrations in the atmosphere have increased by
more than 150%. The primary sources for the additional methane added to
the atmosphere (in order of importance) are rice cultivation, domestic grazing
animals, termites, landfills, coal mining, and oil, and gas extraction. Anaerobic

conditions associated with rice paddy flooding results in the formation of


methane gas. However, an accurate estimate of how much methane is being
produced from rice paddies has been difficult to obtain. More than 60% of all
rice paddies are found in India and China were scientific data concerning
emission rates are unavailable. Nevertheless, scientists believe that the
contribution of rice paddies is large because this form of crop production has
more than doubled since 1950.

Passage 10
Mining and Refining
(1) In an industrial society like the United States, the most important nonfuel
resources are iron ore, aluminum ore, copper ore, and minerals containing
nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium used in fertilizers, a lot of energy is
used in mining operations and the transportation of ore. To make the task of
any physical extraction and transportation worthwhile, the ores must contain
enough of the required compound or clement. Some low-grade ore is not
usable because of the cost of the mining process.

244

(2) Materials extracted from the earth are processed by screening, separating,
washing and grinding. Often, the useful element in an ore is in a chemical
form that is not usable and must be changed to a desirable form. For
instance, the aluminum in aluminum ore is in the form of aluminum ion. To
be useful, the aluminum ion needs to be changed to aluminum metal.

Passage 11
Automation ‫الأتمتة‬

(1) Knowing how and where robots and machines could impact the global
economy will help financial executives in a competitive edge in their industries
but predicting which countries are likely to be impacted most by workforce
automation and when isn't as simple as comparing industries across the globe.
(2) A recent McKinsey Global Institute report. A Future That Works: Automation,
Employment, and Productivity, Analyzed the automation potential of 46
countries, representing 80% of the global workforce. Several factors are

considered, including the percentage of work activities that could be


automated using current technology, the number of full-time employees that
could be affected and wages.
(3) The types of activities that have a high potential for automation are physical
tasks in highly structured and predictable environments, data processing and
data collection. Those that have a considerably lower potential for automation
are unpredictable physical work, interactions with others, applying expertise,
and managing others, which is the least susceptible to automation.
(4) Vast differences are expected in how automation will play out across the
globe, as technical, economic, and social factors will determine the pace and
extent of it. But it's hard to say how quickly automation will become reality,
according to the report.
(5) Take manufacturing, for example. One country may save a larger
concentration of work hours in jobs that have higher automation potential,
such as production and administrative support. And another country may have
a higher proportion of work hours in jobs that are less likely to be automated,
such as management and engineering.
51. What idea do the words "susceptible to automation" repeat?

Passage 12
Passage A: Keeping Time in the Paleolithic Era
(1) How would have a Paleolithic forager living 100,000 years ago kept track of
time? We have little direct evidence about Paleolithic time-tracking. However,
we can study modem foraging societies for hints. In a foraging society. the
rhythms of the natural world are critical. You need a pretty good sense of the
changing seasons and of the schedule That other species keep. then you can
decide when to move to a new campground, what plants to collect, and what
animals to hunt. Modem foragers sense such changes with a precision no
modern city dweller can match

247

(2) Keeping track of the time of day and the time of year was not difficult in
early societies ancient people typically spent most of their time outdoors.
They could find out all they needed to know by the positions of the sun and
the stars. And aligning your activities with those of your family and friends
was much less complicated than it is today. Back then, people lived in small
groups and met face to face.
(3) Meetings with other communities often happened based on the season.
There was no need for precise scheduling. If a group normally met with a
neighboring tribe when the reader returned it didn't really matter if their
schedules were a few days, off. Foraging Societies were much more forgiving
about appointments than we are.

(4) So, no special instruments were required for timekeeping. But there are
clues that even Paleolithic forms didn’t rely entirely on their memories and
their senses to keep track of time.
Passage B: Keeping Time in Agrarian societies
(1) Agrarian societies began to appear 11.000 years ago. As they exploded,
they linked up with their neighbors. Now they needed more ratable methods
of keeping time. If you wanted to sell some vegetables in a country town or
warship at a nevtry temple you had to know exactly when the markets and
religious rights were held- and you needed to know in advance. Now you
needed calendars that everyone agreed on and shared. If your village
depended on irrigation, everyone needed to know exactly when the irrigation
gates would be opened.
(2) Similarly, seeds were planted at particular times. the harvest was also
collected according to seasonal calendars. These early calendars were based
on Earth’s orbit around the sun and associated climate patterns.
(3) This is why new devices began to appear that could track time more
precisely. one method of timekeeping was to watch the sun’s shadow using
sundials.

Passage 1
The fire
(1) Over the roar of the fire, Mike heard Ben shout, "Hurry! The fire is almost on
us!" Mike's arms were sore and tired, but he swung his axe even faster. He
didn't even stop to wipe the tears from his stinging eyes. The greedy fire kept
coming. The more the fire destroyed, the more it wanted. Mike worked
shoulder to shoulder with the other smokejumpers to build a firebreak. His only
thought was to stop the flaming monster that was raging through the forest.
(2) At last, the smoke jumpers finished the firebreak. If the fire were powerful
enough, it would jump over the firebreak that they had worked so hard to
make. Then they would have to start all over again. Mike stood motionless, his
face black with ash, his shirt wet with sweat. He was too exhausted to move
because he had given all of himself to fighting the fire. He turned his head and
noticed Ben watching him.
(3) Suddenly all that Ben had taught Mike about proving his bravery was clear.
A man was not brave if he did something just to prove his courage. He was
brave only when he forgot about himself. Today Mike had showed that he
cared very much about the others with whom he was working.

Passage 2 Giant Panda
1. An American-born giant panda will soon be traveling to China. The Chinese
government has an agreement with foreign zoos to lend giant pandas out only for
scientific study. After a few years, they, and any cubs they may produce, must all be
returned to China. Mei Lan, a three-year-old female, is being prepared for her trip to
China, where her parents were born. A special FedEx flight from the U.S. is being
arranged for her.
2. Chinese zookeepers are getting ready for her arrival by planning a special diet, and
even language lessons for her. They are advertising for a tutor to teach Mei Lan
Chinese. The caretakers at her new home, the Chengdu Panda Research Center in
Sichuan, want to help her adapt quickly and feel comfortable in her new environment.
Mei Lan has lived at a zoo in the city of Atlanta, Georgia, since her birth, and she is
unfamiliar with Chinese. The teacher must have a bachelor's degree or higher and be
fluent in both English and Chinese.

24. According to Paragraph (2), why do the Chinese zookeepers want Mei Lan

Passage 3
Nanotechnology
(1) Anybody who doesn't know much about nanotechnology should begin
with geckos. These are the lizards that are probably the world's best climbers.
Watching them climb upside down on a horizontal pane of glass, you realize
that Spiderman should really have been called Geckoman. These guys out-
climb spiders any day.
(2) With perfect case they can hang from a single toe, and they do so by pure
adhesion, not by sticking a toe in a hole or by curling it round something they
can grip. With all the toes on the glass, scientists guess that if the rest of the
body were strong enough it could take the weight of a 100kg person
suspended below it. Although each toe is equipped with a tiny hook-like claw
at the end, these are of no use on the glass. What keeps them up there is the
amazing structure of the skin of the toe.
(3) Seen under the microscope, each toe has around two million tiny hairs on
its underside. Under the higher magnification of an electron microscope the
end of each of these hairs is seen to split into hundreds of even tinier nano-
hairs, which scientists have called spatulae. These hairs are so small that they
are able to establish contact with the molecular structure of the surface the
gecko is walking on. With that near-perfect contact the hairs are stuck to the
surface by electromagnetic forces called Van der Waals forces. The molecules
on the feet and on the surface have areas of slight positive or negative charge
that attract each other like mini magnets when they get really close.

(4) Scientists have been working for over 15 years now to try to unlock the
secrets of the stickiness of gecko toes and find a way to artificially reproduce
the same structure of nano-hairs. The hypothesis at the moment is that if any
material can be shaped into nano-hairs they will have the same properties as
those on gecko toes, so scientists are looking for a different material with
which to make the stickiest synthetic surface ever.
(5) This is one example of research in the field now known as
nanotechnology. In this field, the technology being created can be measured
in a few nanometers (one nanometer is a millionth of a millimeter). Interest in

developing technology at this level was largely inspired by Richard Feynman


at the beginning of the 1960s, but the 'nano catchphrase was coined in the
1990s by Dr. Eric Drexler, who spurred scientists on through a series of
speeches and a book with the title "Engines of Creation: The Coming Era of
Nanotechnology".
(6) The scientists working on the geckos see an enormously wide range of
possible applications for the kind of adhesive nanotechnology that they will
develop the one that will make the biggest splash in the media will be the
gloves and the boots that will allow rock climbers to take their sport to
hitherto undreamed-of heights. But the technology could also be used in
surgery to keep the edges of wounds together without the need for stitches.
There will also be a huge potential in the manufacturing sector to stick
millions of components together tighter than ever before without glue or
screws.
26. How many hairs does a gecko have at the bottom of each toe?

Passage 4
(1) Ultrafine aerosol particles found in polluted urban air can contribute to
more intense storms in the Amazon rainforest, with potential knock-on effects
for weather and climate patterns in the region and beyond. researchers have
warned.
(2) Particles smaller than 50 nanometers in diameter have a substantial
influence on cloud formation in the Amazon. In turn, the rainforest has a
strong influence on climate regulation worldwide, and aerosol effects
observed in this region could also trigger climate shifts globally. according to
a study published in science.
(3) Until this study, ultrafine particles were thought to be too small to affect
the formation of clouds. This has now been overturned, at least in the specific
circumstances of the Amazon. "These tiny particles were thought to be too
small to aid droplet formation", says meteorologist Luiz Augusto Machado,
from the Brazilian Institute for Space Research's Center for Weather
Forecasting and Climate Studies, and one of the study's authors. "Now we
verified that their presence is one reason why some storms become so strong
and produce so much rain in the Amazon region".
(4) Pérola de Castro Vasconcellos, a chemist at the University of Sao Paulo's
Laboratory of Atmospheric Chemistry Studies, added: "this study changes the
way clouds are to be represented in models used for weather forecasting, as
well as the way researchers understand the workings of tropical rain".
(5) The research team analyzed the influence of ultrafine particles on cloud
cycles in the rainforest during the 2014 rainy season, when there were no
forest fires and the only source of pollution was Manaus, the largest city in
the Amazon.

Passage 5 World Quality Standards


(1) Different companies have different perceptions of quality. Without a
common standard of quality. However, customers may be at the mercy of
manufacturers and vendors. As the number of companies competing in the
world marketplace has increased, so has the seriousness of this problem. To
deal with the problem of standardization, the International Organization for
Standardization (ISO), a nongovernmental organization with headquarters in
Geneva, Switzerland, was created. The ISO is a network of national standards
institutes and similar organizations from 161 different countries that is
charged with developing standards for quality products and services that are
traded throughout the globe.
(2) Standardization is achieved through consensus agreements between
national delegations representing all the economic stakeholders - suppliers,
customers, and often governments. The member organization for the United
States is the American National Standards Institute located in Washington,
D.C.
255
‫أكاديمية عايد للتدريب‬

(3) In 1987, the panel published ISO 9000 (iso is Greek for "equal", which sets
the guidelines for quality procedures that businesses must use to receive
certification. Certification by independent auditors and laboratory testing
services serves as evidence that a company meets the standards for quality
control procedures in design, production processes and product testing.
(4) Although certification is not a legal requirement to do business globally,
the organization's 161 member countries have approved the ISO standards. In
fact. ISO standards are so prevalent around the globe that many customers
refuse to do business with non-certified companies. As an added bonus,
companies completing the certification process often discover new. cost-
efficient ways to improve their existing quality-control programs.
33. What does Paragraph (2) say about standardization? )2( ‫ماذا يقول البرقراف‬
‫عن التقييس؟‬
(A) Guidelines must be used to get certifications.
(B) Everyone has different ideas about standardization.
(C) It is controlled by the American National Standards Institute.
(D) It is a result of agreements between business and governments.
34. How was the problem of different perceptions of quality solved?
‫كيف تم حل مشكلة التصورات المختلفة للجودة؟‬
(A) People created ISO and developed standards of quality.
(B) More companies started to compete in the world marketplace.
(C) Customers stopped doing business with non-certified companies.
(D) National delegations started to represent suppliers, customers and
governments.
35. Why does the writer use the phrase in fact in Paragraph (4)?
‫)؟‬4( ‫لماذا يستخدم الكاتب عبارة "في الواقع" في البرقراف‬
(A) To give more information about the importance of the international ISO
standards.
(B) To give an example of how the ISO standards help businesses in member
countries.
(C) To show that the common use of ISO standards came after the 161-
member countries agreed to them.
(D) To prove that the 161-member countries approved the ISO standards
because customers refused to do business with non-certified companies.

37. What does the writer think is an added advantage of ISO certification?
‫ما الذي يعتقد الكاتب أنه ميزة إضافية لشهادة الأيزو؟‬
(A) He thinks many customers will only want to do business with ISO certified
companies.
(B) He thinks ISO certification is special because business must use
independent auditors and laboratory testing to prove that they meet the
standards.
(C) He thinks the process of certification helps companies save money by
improving their processes.
(D) He thinks that having 161-member countries approve the ISO standards
makes the standards prevalent around the world.
Passage 6

(1) According to a recent study in The Analyst's Accounting Observer, 90


percent of companies in the Standard Poor's 500-stock index reported
nonstandard accounting results last year, up from 72 percent in 2009.
(2) Regulations still require corporations to report their financial results under
accounting rules. But companies often steer investors instead to massaged
calculations that produce a better outcome.
(3) Among 380 companies that were in existence both last year and in 2009,
the study showed net income was up 6.6 percent in 2015 compared with the
previous year when non-standard accounting was used.
(4) However, under generally accepted accounting principles, net income at
the same 380 companies in 2015 actually declined almost 11 percent from
2014.
(5) Another striking fact: Thirty companies in the study generated losses
under accounting rules in 2015 but magically produced profits when they did
the math their own way. Most were in the energy sector, which has been

Passage 8
Software Ownership
(1) Most people know that software can be very expensive. However, many
people do not know that even though you pay a lot for software, you do not
necessarily own it. What happens, then, when you pay for a piece of
software? Very few developers grant you actual ownership of a program,
even after you 'purchased it. Instead of buying the software itself, you are
actually paying for a license that grants you permission to install and use the
software.
Why a License?

Software developers have good reason for licensing software instead of


selling it outright: Piracy - software piracy, which costs developers billions of
dollars every year, is the act of copying software without the developer's
consent and without paying the developer and then selling or giving away the
copies. If you install the program on multiple computers at the same time,
that is piracy too. By licensing their products and maintaining some
ownership of them, developers can take action against pirates.
Modifications - Most license agreements state that you cannot make
modifications to a program's source code. If developers allowed this, it would
be an easy matter for others to make changes to a program and then try to
claim the modified program as their own.
But even though the developer keeps most rights to a program, you have
some rights, too. If the program does not perform as you expected, you have
the right to return or exchange it.
44. Which of the following is the writer's opinion? ‫أي مما يلي رأي الكاتب؟‬
(A) Software licensing benefits the software companies.
(B) Pirates copy billions of dollars of software every year.
(C) Customers can usually make one backup copy of software.
(D) Software licensing brings many advantages to the customer.
45. What can we understand from the passage about software piracy?
‫ما الذي يمكن أن نفهمه من القطعه عن قرصنة البرامج؟‬
(A) It is a trivial problem for the software industry.
(B) It makes a lot of money for the software industry.
(C) It is a bigger issue in the USA than in other countries.
(D) It is the main reason software companies prefer licensing.
46. What can we understand from the passage about a lot of people who
purchase software? ‫ما الذي يمكن أن نفهمه من القطعه عن الكثير من الأشخاص‬
‫الذين يشترون البرامج؟‬
(A) They try to modify their software.
(B) They make many copies of their software.
(C) They like having a software license agreement.
(D) They fail to read their software license agreement.

Passage 9
Catalysts
Catalysts are very important in controlling the rate of reactions. A catalyst is a
chemical that increases the speed or rate of a chemical reaction without
undergoing permanent chemical change. Many industrial and biological
processes need catalysts for efficiency; the reactions are too slow without
them. Catalysts are fascinating chemicals. The reaction between hydrogen
and nitrogen gas to form ammonia does not occur at a significant rate, even
at high pressures and high temperatures. If some finely divided iron is added
to the vessel, however, the rate of the reaction increases dramatically and the
reaction becomes productive. Iron is not a reactant and does not chemically
change in the reaction. The iron functions as a catalyst.
47. The word undergoing is closest in meaning to ……………………………..
‫كلمة "يمر" هي الأقرب من حيث المعنى‬
(A) adding
(B) preventing
(C) controlling
(D) experiencing
Passage 10
Evidence
Direct Evidence
(1) Evidence is either direct or circumstantial. Direct evidence proves a point.
The testimony of an eyewitness is direct evidence. Consider the following
statement: 'I stole Susan's purse. This would appear to be a criminal
confession. This statement is direct evidence. In a civil action, a statement
admitting liability by a defendant is direct evidence.
For example:
*I am so sorry that I hit your car. I knocked over my coffee and looked down
just for a minute. Is everyone okay?
Circumstantial Evidence
(1) Circumstantial evidence is more common. This form of evidence is
indirect. Circumstantial evidence provides the trier of fact with information
from which inferences.

Passage 11
Ancient Birds
(1) Giant birds of the past have names that speak for themselves. The
Elephant bird, a native of Madagascar and the largest known giant bird, stood
at over nine feet tall and weighed in at 1,000 pounds or more, until it went
extinct about 1,000 years ago. Australia's Mthirung, nicknamed "Thunderbird,"
which disappeared nearly 50,000 years ago, is thought to have been nearly
seven feet tall and weighed between 500 and 1,000 pounds. But until now, no
one had ever found evidence of these towering avians in Europe.
(2) Today, researchers describe the first fossil of a giant bird found in Crimea.
Dated at around 1.8 million years old, the specimen makes experts question
previous assumptions that giant birds were not part of the region's fauna
during that period.
(3) A team of paleontologists dug up the fossil__ an unusually large femur
bone__ in Taurida Cave, located on the Crimean Peninsula in the northern
Black Sea. The cave was only discovered last June when the construction of a
new highway revealed its entrance.
(4) Based on the femur's dimensions, the team calculated that the bird would
have weighed around 992 pounds as much as an adult polar bear-making it
the third largest bird ever recorded. Daniel Field, a scientist at the University
of Cambridge, says, “It raises exciting questions about the factors that gave
rise to these giant birds, and the factors that drove them to extinction".
49. What two phrases does the writer use to say that the birds were very
large?
‫جدا؟‬ً ‫ما العبارتان اللتان استخدمهما الكاتب ليقول إن الطيور كانت كبيرة‬
(A) giant bird and towering avian

Passage 12
Passage A: Sole traders to the UK
(1) A sole trader is a business owned by one person. They are usually small in
size, Hairdressers, butchers, and electricians often operate as sole traders,
Bolo traders often use their own savings, bank loans or loans from friends and
263
‫أكاديمية عايد للتدريب‬
‫ وإلا تتحمل المسئولية كاملة أمام الجهات المختصة‬0568955606 ‫هذه الملفات خاصة بأكاديمية عايد محمية بحقوق حفظ ونسخ فلا تحاول الحصول عليها بط ريقة غير شرعية إلا عن طريق‬

family to help them start and finance their business. There are several benefits
of being a sole trader. They keep all the profit they make for themselves and
get to run the business as they see fit, making all the key decisions by
themselves. It is also simple to start a business as a sole trader as there are
very few rules and regulations to follow.
(2) However, sole traders take on all the risks of starting their own business
and have the disadvantage of unlimited liability, meaning that sole trader is
personally responsible for the organization's debt. This means that personal
assets such as a car or house are at risk of being sold to pay off business
debts. Moreover, sole traders tend to work long hours. This is because they
have full responsibility for all of their business. To keep labor costs to a
minimum they will often avoid delegating tasks such as purchasing or
advertising to others, preferring to save money by doing the work
themselves. Sole traders can only raise limited finance, they will receive
money from family and friends or use.
Partnerships can have a minimum of 2 and a maximum of 20 partners.
Lawyers, estate agents, doctor and dental practices often operate as
partnerships.

Partnerships can raise more finance than sole traders. Banks are more likely to
lend money to an organization that has many partners than to a sole trader.
Partners can share the workload and responsibility of the business between
them. In comparison a sole trader has no-one with whom to share their
workload and responsibilities.

Partners may disagree and argue about the future direction of their business.
In contrast, a sole trader has the advantage of being the only decision maker.

Any profit made is shared between two to twenty people. A sole trader has
the advantage of receiving all profit.

Like sole traders, partnerships have unlimited liability. All partners have the
worry of being liable for any business debt the partnership has.

Unlimited liability can be a major disadvantage for sole traders and


partnerships. Private limited companies have limited liability, meaning an
investor only loses the initial stake if a company goes bust.

In law, a private limited company is separate from the people who own it. Its
finances are separate from their personal finances. Because limited companies
have their own legal identity, their owners are not personally liable for the
firm's debts

54. What is one advantage partnerships and private limited companies have
over sole traders? ‫ما هي الميزة الوحيدة التي تتمتع بها الشراكات والشركات الخاصة‬
‫المحدودة على التجار الوحيدين؟‬
(A) It is easier to motivate people working in the business.
(B) It is easier to make decisions about the business.
(C) It is easier to find money to grow the business.
(D) It is easier to find customers for the business.
55. What is one advantage sole traders and partnerships have over private
limited companies? ‫ما هي الميزة التي يتمتع بها التجار الوحيدون والشراكات على‬
‫الشركات الخاصة المحدودة؟‬
(A) They can share the work.
(B) They are less expensive to establish.
(C) It is easier to agree on a business strategy.
(D) Business owners can find more free time.
56. How is a partnership different from a Sole trader and a private limited
company?
‫كيف تختلف الشراكة عن المتداول الوحيد وشركة محدودة خاصة؟‬
(A) It usually has two owners.
(B) It can be a family business.
(C) It always has multiple owners.
(D) It must have a legal document.
57. In which business(es) do the owners have to use their personal money if
the business fails? ‫في أي شركة (مجالات) يتعين على المالكين استخدام أموالهم‬
‫الشخصية في حالة فشل الشركة؟‬
(A) Sole trader only.

Passage 13 Bees
(1) The Holy Quran tells us that insects form communities (Surat al-An'am, 38)
and that they can communicate with one another (Surat an-Naml, 18) and
work together to produce food (Surat al-Nahl, 68-9). Modern science, more
than 1,400 years afterwards, has accepted that this information is indeed
correct. Now, scientists in the United Kingdom are learning that some of
these amazing creatures may also have feelings and emotions similar to those
of humans.
(2) At Newcastle University, they are trying to discover how some insects feel.
In recent years, honeybee numbers have been declining worldwide at a
disturbing rate. Many explanations have been given for this. Some say the bees
are dying because of disease and pesticides. Others say it may be due to
pollution or microwave towers. At any rate, this is a very serious situation, for
humans as well as for the bees. At least one-third of the world's crops depend
on bees. Farmers are worried. What about the bees? How do they feel? Are
they scared, sad or depressed?
(3) The researchers trained a group of bees to tell the difference between two
smells. After one smell, they were always given a sweet sugar reward. After the
other smell, they were given a bitter substance. They quickly learned to choose
the smell with the sweet prize and to stick out their tongues to get it. The
scientists wanted to see what the bees would do if they were put in a stressful
situation. They shook up half of the bees, to make them think they were in
danger. These stressed bees refused to put out their tongues for new smells,
and only chose the old smell which they knew would be followed by a sweet
treat. Even though there was an equal chance that a strange smell would taste
good, it seemed they believed it would taste bad and were afraid to try it. These
bees had become “pessimists". The other half-the unstressed bees-were much
more likely to try tastes from new smells, thus remaining “optimists”.
(4) When humans are stressed, anxious, worried or depressed, they have lower
levels of the brain hormone serotonin. So did the stressed bees. This may mean
266

that the feelings of anxious and stressed bees are similar to those of humans
with mood disorders. This knowledge, along with further investigations into
bee behavior and "feelings" can hopefully be used to understand and remedy
their declining numbers, for their sake and for ours.
58. The words these amazing creatures in Paragraph (1) refer to …………….

Passage 1
Giant Panda
1) An American-born giant panda will soon be traveling to China. The Chinese
government has an agreement with foreign zoos to lend giant pandas out only
for scientific study. After a few years, they, and any cubs they may produce, must
all be returned to China. Mei Lan, a three-year-old female, is being prepared for
her trip to China, where her parents were born. A special FedEx flight from the
U.S. is being arranged for her.
2) Chinese zookeepers are getting ready for her arrival by planning a special diet
and even language lessons for her. They are advertising for a tutor to teach Mei
Lan Chinese. The caretakers at her new home, the Chengdu Panda Research
Center in Sichuan, want to help her adapt quickly and feel comfortable in her
new environment. Mei Lan has lived at a zoo in the city of Atlanta, Georgia, since
her birth, and she is unfamiliar with Chinese. The teacher must have a bachelor's
degree or higher and be fluent in both English and Chinese.
21. According to Paragraph (2), why do the Chinese zookeepers want Mei Lan
to learn Chinese? ‫ لماذا يريد حراس الحديقة الصينيون أن تتعلم‬، )2( ‫وف ًقا للبرقراف‬
‫مي لان اللغة الصينية؟‬
(A) so that she can speak with her caretakers
(B) so that she will feel at home in China
(C)so that she can forget her English
(D) so that she will like her new diet
22. According to Paragraph (2), where has Mei Lan been living?

Stars
1) If we look at the night sky carefully, we will see that the stars are of many different
colors. Some are red, others are yellow and some are blue. This is also shown when we

take color photographs of the night sky. You can take such a photograph with an
ordinary camera as long as it is kept steady. A thirty second exposure is sufficient.
2) Astronomers have been able to classify stars according to color. They have found that
blue stars are the largest and red stars the smallest. However, there are a few stars
which cannot be classified in this way. These are the superstars. For example, Ryiejol is
a blue superstar as big as 40.000 suns and Beetlejuice is a superstar with a size equal
to 17.000 suns.
3) Suppose an astronomer observes two stars, one brighter than the other. If neither of
them is a superstar. he will know immediately that the brighter star is closer.
Astronomers have instruments like light meters which can measure the brightness of a
star quite accurately. It is possible to measure a star's distance from the earth it
astronomers know the color, brightness and whether or not it is a superstar.
23. Which of the following colors is NOT mentioned in the passage?

Passage 3
Engineering Innovation
(1) Rome is known for many things: its military conquests, its civic architecture,
temples, roads, emperors, and sculpture. Yet none of these would have been
possible without the most vital resource of all: water. Now, as then, water is
life, and without effective distribution, there would have been no great
Roman civilization. Even until relatively modern times, Roman techniques to
collect, store, and channel water over huge distances remain unsurpassed.
(2) Such technology, was not, of course, invented from scratch by the
Romans, and many earlier Mediterranean peoples had poured resources and
expertise into managing water. On the island of Crete, the Minoans
developed sophisticated rain-harvesting and filtering systems as early as the
middle of the third millennium B. C. Cretan water management techniques
were later adopted across the Greek-speaking world, and examples abound
of tunnels, drainage systems, and cisterns, sometimes of considerable size.
(3) Yet although the water management tradition Rome inherited was rich
and extensive, no previous system came close to the sophistication and reach
of the Roman aqueduct. Striding across the landscape from Spain to Syria,
these awe-inspiring structures not only carried life and livelihood but also
proclaimed the greatness of Rome.
(4) Aqueducts were costly public works, and not all Roman cities necessarily
required them. Some cities, such as Pompeii, had their water needs met by
wells or public and private cisterns dug beneath houses. Some cisterns could
reach a colossal size, such as the Basilica Cistern (Yerebatan Sarnıcı) in
Constantinople (now Istanbul, Turkey) and the Piscina Mirabilis in Miseno,Italy.
The better built to provide drinking water to the populations such as
Rome's—thought to have reached one million in the first century AD. needed
an entire system of aqueducts not only for drinking water but also for
supplying ornamental public fountains and baths.
(5) Rome was supplied by aqueducts totaling 315 miles in length. Of that, 269
miles ran underground and 46 total miles above ground; however, only about
36 miles consisted of arched structures, just under 12 percent in all.
(6) Rome had as many as 11 aqueduct systems, the most ancient of which was
the mile-long Aqua Appia, first operational in 312 B.C. It was named for its
270
‫أكاديمية عايد للتدريب‬

sponsor, the censor Appius Claudius Caecus, better known for another great
pioneering structure of ancient Rome: the Appian Way, one of the first major
Roman roads.
(7) Three more aqueducts were built in the third and second centuries B.C.:
Aqua Anio Vetus, Aqua Marcia, and Aqua Tepula. Aided by his son-in-law
Marcus Vipsanius Agrippa, Emperor Augustus was particularly active in
improving the capital's water supply, repairing old systems and building new
ones. The Augustan-era Aqua Virgo named, according to legend, for the
young girl who directed thirsty soldiers to the springs that fed it has been
used uninterrupted ever since its construction. During his reign, Caligula
began building two aqueducts that were finished by Emperor Claudius, the
Aqua Claudia and Aqua Anio Novus. Trajan built the Aqua Traiana, which is
37 miles long, in A.D. 109.
(8) The last of Rome's aqueducts was the Aqua Alexandrina, nearly 14 miles
long, built by Alexander Severus in A.D. 226. Some have calculated that, once
completed, Rome's aqueducts delivered roughly 1.5 million cubic yards of
water per day—about 200 gallons per person. Its water network supplied 11
grand scale baths, as well as the 900 or so public baths, and almost 1.400
monumental fountains and private swimming pools. A crucial later stage in
the conveying of water was, of course, its disposal. Rome's Cloaca Maxima
sewer, which flowed into the Tiber River, became the model for urban
sanitation.

Passage 4
(1) Friction is the force that opposes one surface moving. or trying to move,
over another. It can be a help or a hindrance. We could not walk if there was
no friction between the soles of our shoes and the ground. Our feet would
slip backwards; as they tend to if we walk on ice. On the other hand,
engineers try to reduce friction to a minimum in the moving parts of
machinery by using lubricating oils and ball bearings.
(2) When a gradually increasing force (P) is applied through a spring balance
to a block on a table, the block does not move at first. This is because an
equally increasing but opposing frictional force (F) acts where the block and
table touch. At any instant P and F are equal and opposite.
(3) If P is increased further, the block eventually moves; as it does so F has its
maximum value, called starting or static friction. When the block is moving at
a steady speed, the balance reading is slightly less than that for starting
friction. Sliding or dynamic friction is therefore less than starting or static
friction.
(4) Placing a mass on the block increases the force pressing the surfaces
together and increases friction. When work is done against friction, the
temperatures of the bodies in contact rise (as you can test by rubbing your
wands together): mechanical energy is being changed into heat energy.

Passage 5
Monitoring Food
(1) Nutritionists often suggest keeping a food diary to track your meals, avoid
mindless overeating and keep tabs on nutrients like salt, fat and vitamins. But
writing down everything you eat is annoying, and many people find
themselves abandoning their efforts after a few days or weeks.
(2) In the future, you may be able to track your food intake with a sticker-
placed on your tooth. Researchers at Tufts University have developed a tooth
sensor that can track glucose and salt and wirelessly send the information to
a device.
(3) Scientists have developed wearables for monitoring food intake before.
Most of these have been in the form of mouth guards. American and Brazilian
scientists created one to check glucose; it contained biosensors and wireless
273

‫ وإلا تتحمل المسئولية كاملة أمام الجهات المختصة‬0568955606 ‫هذه الملفات خاصة بأكاديمية عايد محمية بحقوق حفظ ونسخ فلا تحاول الحصول عليها بط ريقة غير شرعية إلا عن طريق‬

communications modules. But it requires, well, wearing a mouth guard, which


can be uncomfortable.
(4) Diabetics could theoretically use the new tooth-mounted sensor to
monitor their sugar intake and broadcast the information to their doctors. It
could be helpful for people with other medical conditions that require them
to monitor their eating, for example, patients with high blood pressure who
need to limit their salt.
(5) But, Almquist, a professor of bioengineering at Imperial College London,
says, there will be “significant hurdles" before the technology is ready for daily
use as a food diary substitute. "For instance, for continuous monitoring of
food intake, the sensors will need to be robust enough to withstand abrasion
during chewing. In addition, foods are complex mixtures of compounds
including salts, sugars and proteins, and the relative amounts of each that
enter into saliva will depend on factors such as the nature of the food.
33. What does the passage say about the new food-control technique?
‫ماذا يقول المقطع عن التقنية الجديدة لضبط الأغذية؟‬
(A) It is NOT yet ready to replace older methods.
(B) It will help patients to use less medicine.
(C) It will help people who DO NOT exercise enough.
(D) It can deal with all food ingredients.
34. Why have scientists developed the new food-control technique?
‫لماذا طور العلماء تقنية جديدة للتحكم في الأغذية؟‬
(A) to help restaurants make healthier food cheaply
(B) to avoid the need to keep a daily food diary
(C) to improve the diet of babies and children

(A) He believes they were NOT expensive to make.
(B) He believes they were rather big.
(C) He believes they were NOT practical.
(D) He believes they were difficult to make.

Passage 6
Cultural Norms
(1) Humans are social creatures. People have always grouped together into
communities in order to survive. Living together, people form common habits
and behaviors—from specific methods of childrearing to preferred techniques
for obtaining food. In modern day Paris, many people shop daily at outdoor
markets to pick up what they need for their evening meal, buying cheese,
meat, and vegetables from different specialty stalls. In the United States, the
majority of people shop once a week at supermarkets, filling large carts to the
brim. How would a Parisian perceive U.S. shopping behaviors that Americans
take for granted?
(2) Almost every human behavior, from shopping to marriage to expressions
of feelings, is learned. In the United States, people tend to view marriage as a
choice between two people, based on mutual feelings of love. In other
nations and in other times, marriages have been arranged through an
intricate process of interviews and negotiations between entire families.
(3) To someone raised in New York City, the marriage customs of a family
from Nigeria may seem strange, or even wrong. Conversely, someone from a
traditional Kolkata family might be perplexed with the idea of romantic love
as the foundation for lifelong commitment. In other words, the way in which
people view marriage depends largely on what they have been taught.
275

(4) Behavior based on learned customs is not a bad thing. Being familiar with
unwritten rules helps people feel secure and "normal.” Most people want to
live their daily lives confident that their behaviors will not be challenged or
disrupted. But even an action as seemingly simple as commuting to work
evidences a great deal of cultural propriety.

38. What has the greatest effect on people's ideas about marriage today?
‫ما هو أعظم تأثير على أفكار الناس عن الزواج اليوم؟‬
(A) their ideas about romantic love
(B) what they have seen in popular films
(C) the marriage customs of people in New York
(D) what they have learned from their own community
39. What is the main reason people have always lived in social groups?
‫دائما في مجموعات اجتماعية؟‬ ً ‫ما هو السبب الرئيسي الذي يجعل الناس يعيشون‬

Passage 8
(1) Our food is primarily made of carbohydrates, proteins, fats, minerals,
vitamins and water. We need to regularly ingest food to sustain ourselves.
(2) Living things do not follow the pattern of decay seen in the rest of the
natural world. Unlike non-living things (such as rocks), living things maintain
themselves. They build new cells, tissues and organs in the process of
development. Once mature, organisms can sustain existing biological
structures by cellular division. This process, also called mitosis, allows cells to

277
‫أكاديمية عايد للتدريب‬
‫ وإلا تتحمل المسئولية كاملة أمام الجهات المختصة‬0568955606 ‫هذه الملفات خاصة بأكاديمية عايد محمية بحقوق حفظ ونسخ فلا تحاول الحصول عليها بط ريقة غير شرعية إلا عن طريق‬

use molecules such as water, amino acids (building blocks of proteins),


carbohydrates and lipids to create new cells. This process requires the transfer
of energy among chemical bonds.
(3) Our cells are regularly being replaced and recycled and this requires a
regular influx of energy and matter. We obtain energy in the form of food
calories: new matter in the form of the molecules contained in our food. Not
all of these molecules are digestible by all animals. These unneeded
molecules may be eaten along with more desirable molecules. This is part of
the reason why animals must have an opening in their digestive system
(4) A balanced diet for humans includes several servings of breads, cereals,
fruits and vegetables every day. Also essential are smaller servings of milk,
dairy, meat and eggs. Fats, oils and sweets should make up a very small
portion of a balanced diet.
(5) Human beings eat several hundred pounds of food a year. From this food
we obtain all the molecules we need so our bodies can operate, grow and
replace the cells lost to wear, old age, or damage.
(6) Animals, such as humans, have evolved intricate strategies of intercellular
communication. Feedback, feed-forward, and inhibition allow us to maintain
steady-state, or homeostasis. We get hungry because we want to eat. This
seemingly simple cause and effect is the result of the empty stomach
secreting the peptide hormone ghrelin into the bloodstream. When this
hormone is received by the hypothalamus, it stimulates the release of growth
hormones, which makes us want to eat. After eating to satiation, the release
of the peptide hormone leptin causes the hypothalamus to inhibit hunger
sensations. Leptin is released by a variety of tissues including adipose (fat
cells), stomach, bone, pituitary, and the liver.
Metabolism
(7) The word metabolism comes from the Greek root "change" and involves
the building up or breaking down of molecules to be used by the body. These
molecules will be used for cell growth, fuel and other processes. If the process
involves breaking down molecules into simpler ones, usually to release
energy, it is called catabolic. If building up complex molecules, for structures
or energy storage, it is called anabolic.

278

(8) Developed and less active bodies do not need as many energy calories as
developing and active bodies. Developing bodies are adding cells at a rapid
rate, and this requires an infusion of both new material (molecules) and
energy. Active bodies, likewise, need more calories to sustain the energetic
demands of more motion.
Proteins
(9) Proteins are molecules made of nitrogen, carbon, oxygen and hydrogen
and sometimes sulfur. These molecules are found in animal tissue such as
meat (including fish), eggs, cheese and legumes, and many other plant foods.
(10) Proteins are large molecules assembled from smaller units called amino
acids and serve many important roles in living things. Amino acids are linked
by covalent bonds called peptide bonds. Proteins can serve as enzymes,
hormones as well as the building blocks of complex physical features. Proteins
comprise teeth, bone, muscle, tendon, cartilage, skin - most of what makes up
an organism.
(11) As enzymes, proteins facilitate chemical reactions that would not
otherwise happen in the short time, or lower temperatures required by living
things. As hormones (such as the previously mentioned appetite inhibitor
leptin) they are protein messengers that deliver information around the body.
Carbohydrates
(12) Carbohydrates are made of hydrogen, oxygen, and carbon that combine
to form monosaccharides. These simple sugars are made of five (pentose) or
six (hexose) carbon rings. Additional hydrogen and oxygen atoms allow these
rings to form disaccharides ("two sugars") such as sucrose and lactose or
polysaccharides ("many sugars") such as starch.
(13) Sugars are essential to living things. They provide a way to store chemical
energy to operate living things. They are also the structural backbone to the
information storage molecules DNA and RNA, as well as many of the other
essential molecules in living things. Sugar is transported through the
bloodstream in the form of the simple sugar glucose. They have 4 calories of
energy per gram.

Arrests
(1) In the US legal system, arrests are made after enough evidence is
collected to establish probable cause. Arrests are made with or without a
warrant, but there must always be probable cause to arrest. A criminal
defendant is usually searched at the time of the arrest. At the police station
the defendant is "booked'. The booking process involves finger printing and

photographing the defendant. Background information on the defendant


such as name, address, phone number, and so forth is also collected.
(2) The defendant is searched again before he or she is placed in a jail cell. If
the defendant's offense is minor, he or she may be allowed to post bail and
appear before the judge at a later date. When the offense is not minor, the
defendant is held until the initial appearance; the judge sets the bail amount
at this time.

Passage 11
Advertising ‫الاعلان‬

Defenses of Advertising
(1) Defenders of advertising claim that it provides many benefits. It informs
consumers about available products and services. Some adverts promote the
public interest by informing consumers about health and safety issues.
Volvos, for example, were among the first vehicles to provide side-door
airbags This is a definite safety advantage. Defenders of advertising also
argue that by giving media the financial backing it requires, advertisements
allow "free" television and internet content. The survival and profitability of
many media outlets, such as social media, television and radio stations and
YouTube channels depend on advertising revenue. Finally, advocates of
advertising claim that it stimulates competition and fuels our mass-
282

consumption economy. It raises the standard of living for everyone because it


makes "economies of large-scale production” possible. Mass production
reduces the cost of manufacturing a product, so it is less expensive to buy;
but mass production requires mass consumption, and mass consumption of a
product cannot occur unless consumers know that the product exists and
where it can be bought. So, advertising is required if we are to take
advantage of the benefits of large-scale production.
Criticisms of Advertising
(2) Numerous criticisms have been leveled at advertising First, some critics
argue, advertising interferes with almost everything we do (studying, reading,
driving, watching YouTube, browsing the internet). Second, critics say,
advertising makes citizens materialistic. They only care about possessing more
and more. Of course, there is nothing wrong with improving your standard of
living, but they say advertising encourages consumers to measure their worth
only by what they have, rather than by who they are. And so, advertising
weakens social bonds and contributes to a shallow, materialistic culture. Third,
advertising exploits children by targeting dubious messages (sugary cereals
are good, cool kids wear brand-name clothing) at an audience that is too
young to be able to evaluate their content. Young people, including college
students.
50. What are two words that the writer uses for "supporter" in Paragraph (1)?

Passage 12
Renewable Energy Sources ‫مصادر الطاقة المتجددة‬
Passage A
Solar Energy
(1) The energy falling on the Earth from the Sun is mostly in the form of light
and the light that falls in one hour equals the total energy used by the world
in a year. Unfortunately, its low energy density requires large collecting
devices and its availability varies. Its greatest potential use is as an energy
source for low-temperature water heating. This uses solar panels as the
energy transfer devices, which convert light into heat energy. They are used
increasingly to produce domestic hot water at about 70°C and to heat
swimming pools.
(2) Solar energy can also be used to produce high temperature heating, up to
3000°C or so, if a large curved mirror (a solar furnace) focuses the Sun's rays
284
‫أكاديمية عايد للتدريب‬
‫ وإلا تتحمل المسئولية كاملة أمام الجهات المختصة‬0568955606 ‫هذه الملفات خاصة بأكاديمية عايد محمية بحقوق حفظ ونسخ فلا تحاول الحصول عليها بط ريقة غير شرعية إلا عن طريق‬

on to a small area. The energy can then be used to turn water to steam for
driving the turbine of an electric generator in a power station.
(3) Solar cells, made from semiconducting materials, convert sunlight into
electricity directly. A number of cells connected together can be used to
supply electricity to homes and to the electronic equipment in
communication and other satellites. They are also used for small-scale power
generation in remote areas of developing countries where there is no
electricity supply. Recent developments have made large-scale generation
more cost effective and there is now a large solar power plant in California.
There are many designs for prototype light vehicles run on solar power.
Wind energy
(4) Giant windmills called wind turbines with two or three blades each up to
30m long drive electrical generators. "Wind farms" of 20 to 100 turbines
spaced about 400m apart, supply about 400MW (enough electricity for
250,000 homes) in the UK and provide a useful "top up" to the National Grid.
Wind turbines can be noisy and may be considered unsightly so there is some
environmental objection to wind farms, especially as the best sites are often
in coastal or upland areas of great natural beauty.

Passage B
Wave energy
(5) The rise and fall of sea waves have to be transferred by some kind of
wave-energy converter into the rotary motion required to drive a generator. It
is a difficult problem and the large-scale production of electricity by this
means is unlikely in the near future, but small systems are being developed to
supply island communities with power.
Tidal and hydroelectric energy
(6) The flow of water from a higher to a lower level from behind a tidal
barrage (barrier) or the dam of a hydroelectric scheme is used to drive a
water turbine (water wheel) connected to a generator.
(7) One of the largest working tidal schemes is the La Grande I project in
Canada. Feasibility studies have shown that a 10-mile-long barrage across the
River Severn Estuary could produce about 7% of today's electrical energy
285
‫أكاديمية عايد للتدريب‬

consumption in England and Wales. Such schemes have significant


implications for the environment, as they may destroy wildlife habitats of
water birds for example, and also for shipping routes.
(8) In the UK, hydroelectric power stations generate about 2% of the
electricity supply. Most are located in Scotland and Wales where the average
rainfall is higher than in other areas. With good management hydroelectric
energy is a reliable energy source, but there are risks connected with the
construction of dams, and a variety of problems may result from the impact
of a dam on the environment. Land previously used for forestry or farming
may have to be flooded.

55. According to both passages, why is it difficult to use energy from


renewable sources?
‫ لماذا يصعب استخدام الطاقة من مصادر متجددة؟‬،‫حسب كلا القطعتين‬
(A) Renewable sources require large amounts of energy to generate power.
(B) The availability of renewable energy differs and can only be used for water
heating.
(C) Large collecting devices are required and it's difficult to get permission
from governments.
(D) It's difficult to convert motion to drive a generator and crude oil prices are
so cheap that it's not worth it.
56. What do the passages say about the UK? ‫ماذا تقول المقاطع عن المملكة‬
‫المتحدة؟‬
(A) Wind turbines are unpopular in the UK, but they provide 400 MW of
energy.
(B) The UK has up to 100 wind turbines that can provide energy to other
countries.
(C) Wind turbines supply electricity to some homes and hydroelectricity
powers 2 percent of homes in the UK.
(D) Hydroelectricity powers 2 percent of homes and wind power could
provide power for another 10 percent of homes.
57. Which of the following statements best summarizes renewable energy
from both passages? ‫أي من العبارات التالية يلخص بشكل أفضل الطاقة المتجددة‬

(A) The UK is the leading country in the world using alternative energy
sources.
(B) Renewable energy sources make up a small portion of the energy supply.
(C) Wind turbines cause too much environmental damage to be used widely.
(D) Canada is the leading country in hydroelectric energy.

Passage 13
Floor Damage
(1) The damage you described in your letter dated 7 July has now been
inspected.
(2) The faults in the wiring appear to have been caused by dripping water
from the floor above. The electrical contractor, who installed the wiring in
February, tells me that the wall was dry at the time he replaced the old wires.
However, we will arrange for repairs to be made and seal off that section.
(3) Durafloor is one of the most hardwearing materials of its kind on the
market and we were surprised to hear that it had worn away within six
months, so we made a closer inspection. We noticed that the floor had been
cut into and this seems to have been the result of dragging heavy metal
boxes across it. The one-year guarantee we offer on our workmanship is
against “normal wear and tear", and the treatment the floor appears to have
been subjected to does not fall into this category. I am quite willing to
arrange for the surface to be replaced, but we will have to charge you for the
materials and work involved. If I may, I would like to suggest that you instruct
your staff to use trolleys when shifting heavy containers.
(4) I am sorry about the inconvenience you have experienced and will tell the
fitters to repair the damage as soon as I have your confirmation that they can
begin work.

Model 25
Passage 1
(1) Over the roar of the fire, Mike heard Ben shout, "Hurry! The fire is almost on
us!" Mike's arms were sore and tired, but he swung his axe even faster. He
didn't even stop to wipe the tears from his stinging eyes. The greedy fire kept
coming. The more the fire destroyed, the more it wanted. Mike worked
shoulder to shoulder with the other smokejumpers to build a firebreak. His only
thought was to stop the flaming monster that was raging through the forest.
(2) At last the smoke jumpers finished the firebreak. If the fire were powerful
enough, it would jump over the firebreak that they had worked so hard to
make. Then they would have to start all over again. Mike stood motionless, his
face black with ash, his shirt wet with sweat. He was too exhausted to move
because he had given all of himself to fighting the fire. He turned his head and
noticed Ben watching him.
(3) Suddenly all that Ben had taught Mike about proving his bravery was clear.
A man was not brave if he did something just to prove his courage. He was
brave only when he forgot about himself. Today Mike had showed that he
cared very much about the others with whom he was working.

Passage 2
Social Impact of the Industrial Revolution
(1) The Industrial Revolution brought great riches to most of the
entrepreneurs who helped set it in motion. For the millions of workers who
crowded into the new factories, however, the industrial age brought poverty
and harsh living conditions.
(2) In time, reforms would curb many of the worst abuses of the early
industrial age in Europe and the Americas. As standards of living increased,
people at all levels of society would benefit from industrialization. Until then,
working people would suffer with dangerous working conditions: unsafe,
unsanitary, and overcrowded housing: and unrelenting poverty.
(3) The Industrial Revolution brought rapid urbanization, or the movement of
people to cities. Changes in farming, soaring population growth, and an ever-
increasing demand for workers led masses of people to migrate from farms
to cities. Almost overnight, small towns around coal or iron mines
mushroomed into cities. Other cities grew up around the factories that
entrepreneurs built in once quiet market towns.
(4) The British market town of Manchester numbered 17,000 people in the
1750s. Within a few years, it exploded into a center of the textile industry. Its
population soared to 40,000 by 1780 and 70,000 by 1801. Visitors described
the cloud of coal vapor" that polluted the air, the pounding noise of steam
engines, and the filthy stench of its river. This growth of industry and rapid
population growth dramatically changed the location and distribution of two
resources - labor and people.
Nor Social Classes Emerge
(5) The Industrial Revolution created a new middle class along with the
working class. Those in the middle class owned and operated the new
factories, mines, and railroads, among other industries. Their lifestyle was

much more comfortable than that of the industrial working class. When
former families moved to the new industrial cities, they became workers in
mines or factories. Many felt lost and bewildered. They faced tough working
conditions in uncomfortable environments. In time, though. factory and mine
workers developed their own sense of community despite the terrible
working conditions.
The Industrial Middle Class
(6) Those who benefited most from the Industrial Revolution were the
entrepreneurs who set it in motion. The Industrial Revolution created this new
middle class, whose members came from a variety of backgrounds. Some
were merchants who invested their growing profits in factories. Others were
inventors or skilled artisans who developed new technologies. Some rose
from "rags to riches”, a pattern that the age greatly admired. Middle-class
families lived in well-furnished, spacious homes on paved streets and had a
ready supply of water. They wore fancy clothing and ate well. The new middle
class took pride in their hard work and their determination to "get ahead.
Only a few had sympathy for the poor. Women of the middle class did not
leave the home to work but instead focused their energy on raising their
children. This contrasted with the wealthy, who had maidservants to look after
their children, and the working class, whose children were a part of the
workforce.
The Industrial Working Class
(1) While the wealthy and the middle class lived in pleasant neighborhoods,
vast numbers of poor struggled to survive in foul-smelling shuns. They
packed into tiny rooms in tenements, or multistory buildings divided into
apartments. These tenements had 10 running water, only community
pumps. There was no sewage or sanitation system, so waste and garbage
rotted in the streets. Sewage was also dumped into rivers, which created
an overwhelming stench and contaminated drinking water. This led to the
spread of diseases such as cholera.

Passage 4
Agriculture in the Middle East ‫الزراعة في الشرق الاوسط‬
(1) From the 8th century, the medieval Islamic world underwent a
transformation in agricultural practice, described by the historian Andrew
Watson as the Arab agricultural revolution. This transformation was driven by
a number of factors including the diffusion of many crops and plants along
Muslim trade routes, the spread of more advanced farming techniques, and
an agricultural-economic system which promoted increased yields and
efficiency. The shift in agricultural practice changed the economy, population
distribution, vegetation cover, agricultural production, population levels,
urban growth, the distribution of the labor force, cooking, diet, and clothing
across the Islamic world.

(2) Muslim traders covered much of the Old World, and trade enabled the
diffusion of many crops, plants and farming techniques across the region, as
well as the adaptation of crops, plants and techniques from beyond the
Islamic world. This diffusion introduced major crops to Europe by way of Al-
Andalus, along with the techniques for their cultivation and cuisine. Sugar
cane, rice, and cotton were among the major crops transferred, along with
citrus and other fruit trees, nut trees, vegetables such as eggplant, and
spinach and the use of spices such as cumin, coriander and cinnamon,
Intensive irrigation crop rotation and agricultural manuals were widely
adopted. Irrigation, partly based on Roman technology, made use of water
wheels, water mills, dams and reservoirs.

Passage 5
(1) An American-born giant panda will soon be traveling to China. The Chinese
government has an agreement with foreign zoos to lend giant pandas out only
for scientific study. After a few years, they, and any cubs they may produce,
must all be returned to China. Mei Lan, a three-year-old female, is being
prepared for her trip to China, where her parents were born. A special FedEx
flight from the U.S. is being arranged for her.
(2) Chinese zookeepers are getting ready for her arrival by planning a special
diet, and even language lessons for her. They are advertising for a tutor to

Passage 7
Personal Finance
(1) An annual survey in 2017 from the National Endowment for Financial
Education (NEFE) found Americans cited the most significant financial
setbacks they experienced in 2016 as transportation issues (23 percent),
housing repairs/maintenance (20 percent), and medical care for injury illness
(18 percent). If faced with a major unexpected expense, over one third say
they would pay for it with credit cards or emergency savings both at 35
percent-followed by cash at 32 percent.
(2) The survey also found that nearly half (48 percent) of Americans admit
that they are living paycheck to paycheck. The main reasons people believe
they are living paycheck to paycheck are due to credit card debt (24 percent),
employment struggles (22 percent), and mortgage/rent payments (18
percent). Compounding the uneasiness, over three quarters (78 percent) say
something causes them financial stress. Saving money (53 percent) tops the
list, followed by managing debt (44 percent).
(3) "Get debt under control" says Paul Golden (a spokesman for NEFE). "Take
a hard look at what you owe. If there's a clear warning sign of too much debt.
take action. Set a goal to reduce your debt load next year by 5 to 10 percent.
That might mean reducing impulse shopping. Six in 10 people admit they
purchase on impulse and 80 percent of those regret purchases afterwards.
When you face temptation, walk away for at least 30 minutes and see if you
still want it and it's a good idea".

Passage 8

(1) A mysterious, orange, sticky gel, found on the beaches of Kivalina, a village
situated on the Alaskan coast between Kotzebue and Point Hope, was
recently the source of much interest. Many people thought that the sticky gel
was some strange compound that had spread as a result of a chemical
reaction. Others had more far-fetched ideas about the substance's origins
ranging from aliens to volcanic remains.
(2) Scientists at an Alaskan laboratory have been busy analyzing the unknown
substance. They have concluded that it is a formation of microscopic eggs.
One of the scientists said that there are traces of oil in the eggs, and this is
what is causing the strange, orange color.
(3) The scientists have discovered that the eggs belong to a small invertebrate
- a spineless animal, but they have not been able to identify the exact species.

Passage 9
Psychoanalysis
What are the aims and methods of psychoanalysis?
(1) Although most of today's therapists do not practice therapy as Sigmund
Freud did, his psychoanalytic techniques survive. Psychoanalysis is part of our
modem vocabulary, and its assumptions influence many other therapies.
(2) Psychoanalysis assumes that many psychological problems are fueled by
childhood's residue of supposedly repressed impulses and conflicts.
Psychoanalysts try to bring these repressed feelings into conscious awareness,
where the patient can deal with them. By gaining insight into the origins of
the disorder - by fulfilling the ancient imperative to know thyself" in a deep
way - the patient "works through" the buried feelings. The theory presumes
that healthier, less anxious living becomes possible when patients release the
energy they had previously devoted to id-ego-superego conflicts.
299

Methods
(3) Psychoanalysis is historical reconstruction. Its goal is to unearth the past in
hope of unmasking the present. But how?
(4) When Freud discarded hypnosis as unreliable, he turned to free
association. Imagine yourself as a patient using the free association
technique. The analyst invites you to relax, perhaps by lying on a couch. He or
she will probably sit out of your line of vision, helping you focus attention on
your internal thoughts and feelings. Beginning with a childhood memory, a
dream, or a recent experience, you say aloud whatever comes to your mind
from moment to moment. It sounds easy, but soon you notice how often you
edit your thoughts as you speak, omitting material that seems trivial,
irrelevant, or shameful. Even in the safe presence of the analyst, you may
pause momentarily before uttering an embarrassing thought. You may make
a joking remark or change the subject to something less threatening.
Sometimes your mind may go blank or you may find yourself unable to
remember important details.
(5) To the psychoanalyst, these blocks in the flow of your free associations
indicate resistance. They hint that anxiety lurks and that you are repressing
sensitive material. The analyst will want to explore these sensitive areas by
making you aware of your resistances and by interpreting their underlying
meaning. The analyst's interpretations - suggestions of underlying wishes,
feelings, and conflicts - aim to provide people with insight. If offered at the
right moment, the analyst's interpretation - of, say, your not wanting to talk
about your mother - may illuminate what you are avoiding. You may then
discover what your resistances mean and how they fit with other pieces of
your psychological puzzle.
(6) Freud believed that another clue to repressed impulses is your dreams'
hidden content. Thus, after inviting you to report a dream, the analyst may
offer a dream analysis, suggesting its hidden meaning.
(7) During many such sessions you will probably disclose more of yourself to
your analyst than you have ever revealed to anyone. Because psychoanalytic
theory emphasizes the formative power of childhood experiences, much of
what you reveal will pertain to your earliest memories. You will also probably
find yourself experiencing strong positive or negative feelings for your
300
‫أكاديمية عايد للتدريب‬
‫ وإلا تتحمل المسئولية كاملة أمام الجهات المختصة‬0568955606 ‫هذه الملفات خاصة بأكاديمية عايد محمية بحقوق حفظ ونسخ فلا تحاول الحصول عليها بط ريقة غير شرعية إلا عن طريق‬

analyst. Such feelings may express the dependency or mingled love and
anger that you earlier experienced toward family members or other important
people in your life. When this happens, Freud would say you are actually
transferring your strongest feelings from those other relationships to the
analyst. Analysts and other therapists believe that this transference exposes
long-repressed feelings, giving you a belated chance to work through them
with your analyst's help. By examining your feelings toward the analyst, you
may also gain insight into your current relationships.
(8) Note how much of psychoanalysis is built on the assumption that
repressed memories exist. That assumption is now questioned. This challenge
to an assumption that is basic to so much of professional and popular
psychology is provoking intense debate.
(9) Critics also say that psychoanalysts' interpretations are hard to refute. If, in
response to the analyst's suggested interpretation, you say, "Yes! I see now",
your acceptance confirms the analyst's interpretation If you emphatically say,
"No! That doesn't ring true," your denial may be taken to reveal more
resistance, which would also confirm the interpretation Psychoanalysts
acknowledge that it's hard to prove or disprove their interpretations. But they
insist that interpretations often are a great help to patients.
(10) Traditional psychoanalysis is slow and expensive. It requires up to several
years of several sessions a week with a highly trained and well-paid analyst.
(Three times a week for just two years at $100 or more per hour comes to
about $30,000.) Only those with a high income can afford such treatment.
(11) Although there are relatively few traditional psychoanalysts,
psychoanalytic assumptions influence many therapists, especially those who
make psychodynamic assumptions. Psychodynamic therapists try to
understand patients' current symptoms by exploring their childhood
experiences, they probe for supposed repressed, emotion-laden information.
They seek to help people gain insight into the unconscious roots of problems
and work through newly resurrected feelings. Although influenced by Frend’s
psychoanalysis, these therapists may talk to people face to face (rather than
out of the line of vision), once a week (rather than several times weekly), and
for only a few weeks or months (rather than several years).

Passage 10
Desert Biomes
(1) Deserts are some of the most widespread yet explored biomes. They cover
about 1/3 of the earth's surface and are found in 60 of the world's nations.
The largest hot desert biome (the Sahara) stretches over 3.5 million square
miles or 9 million square kilometers, However, Antarctica, which is a polar
desert, is the largest desert overall. Many people assume that deserts cannot
support any form of life, but they actually house about 4,000 different plants
and animal species. Since desert biomes receive little precipitation per year,
the conditions are very hostile for plants and animals.
(2) A desert biome is a collection of habitats that develop in arid (dry)
environments as a result of little rainfall (50cms per year) or no rainfall at all.
Desert biomes are classified into four, with each having its own unique
features, yet sharing great similarities regarding living and nonliving

composition. They include hot and dry deserts, semi-arid deserts, coastal
deserts and cold deserts. In the midst of these 4 deserts exist numerous
deserts in many areas across the globe.
(3) The Australian deserts consist of a collection of lowland arid eco-regions
in the heartland of Australia. They are hardly inhabited, and their average
population density is lower than one person per square kilometer. Of all the
deserts in the world, Australian deserts have the lowest human population, by
far.
(4) The Afrotropic desert biomes are located in Sub Saharan Africa, including
the southern fringe of the Arabian Peninsula. The biome receives a lot of
pressure from humans, particularly in Madagascar and the Home of Africa.
(5) The Indo-Malay region consists of two hot lowlands including the Indus
Valley and the Thar. These deserts top the world's deserts when it comes to
human footprint.
(6) The Nearctic deserts cover an estimated area of 1.04 million square miles
in North America. Due to the expansion of urban conurbations like Phoenix in
the U. S. their average population is relatively high

47. What two phrases does the writer use to say that deserts have few
people?
‫ما هي العبارتان اللتان يستخدمهما الكاتب ليقول إن الصحاري بها عدد قليل من الناس؟‬
(A) hostile; cannot support life
(B) arid; nonliving composition
(C) unexplored; hardly inhabited
(D) population density; human footprint
48. Which of the following is a fact? ‫أي مما يلي يعتبر حقيقة؟‬
(A) Deserts have extreme temperatures and are hardly inhabited.

Passage 11
Soviet Economy under Stalin
1) When Stalin came to power, he imposed government control over the Soviet
Union's economy. In the past, said Stalin, Russia had suffered because of its
economic backwardness. In 1928, he proposed the first of several ‘five-year
plans' aimed at building heavy industry, improving transportation, and increasing
farm output. He brought all economic activity under government control. The
government owned all business and distributed all resources. The Soviet Union
developed a command economy, in which government officials made all basic
economic decisions. By contrast, in a capitalist system, the free market
determines most economic decisions. Privately owned businesses compete to
win the customer's choice.
Mixed Results in Industry
2) Stalin's five-year plans set high production goals, especially for heavy industry
and transportation. The government pushed workers and managers to meet
these goals by giving bonuses to those who succeeded - and by punishing those
who did not. Between 1928 and 1939, larger factories, hydroelectric power
stations and huge industrial complexes rose across the Soviet Union. Oil, coal
and steel production grew. Mining expanded, and new railroads were built.
3) Despite the impressive progress in some areas, Soviet workers had little to show
for their efforts. Some former peasants did become skilled factory workers or
managers. Overall, though, the standard of living remained low. Central planning
was often inefficient, causing shortages in some areas and surpluses in others.
Many managers, concerned only with meeting production targets, turned out
large quantities of low-quality goods. Consumer products such as clothing.

Passage 12
Viruses
(1) Some illnesses are caused by bacteria. Bacteria are alive:
They're very small — you can't see them without a microscope — but they take
in nutrients, reproduce and die. Viruses can make copies of themselves only by
hijacking the cells of the creatures they infect. When the flu virus is outside of
your body – lurking on a doorknob, for instance — it's dead by any definition.
But once inside your body, it shows many of the characteristics of life. Viruses
might even be the descendants of living organisms that shed seemingly
necessary traits to live more efficiently (with a little help from our cells).
(2) "Most viruses have molecules — genes and proteins —like us and other live
beings. However, they need another living being to make these proteins," says
Jordi Paps, an evolutionary biologist at the University of Essex in England.
(3) Some researchers point out that many organisms including such parasites
as tapeworms that can live in your gut — need hosts to feed them and help
them reproduce. Viruses aren't so different.
(4) However, chers say that all organisms, parasites or not, can make proteins
by themselves, but viruses can't, so this is why they do not consider them alive,
Paps says.
(5) Other scientists see it differently. “Viruses can be regarded similar to 'seeds'
of plants”, says Gustavo Caetano-Anollés of the University of Illinois. “Some
seeds appear dead, and you can keep them for years without anything
happening to them until the plant starts growing."

56. What idea do the words "with a little help from our cells" repeat?
(A) Viruses need a host to live.
(B) Viruses can only infect humans.
(C) Viruses cooperate with living organisms.
(D) Viruses are the descendants of living organisms.
57. What can we understand from Paragraph (1) about viruses?
(A) They are the same as bacteria.
(B) They can be seen with a microscope.
(C) They can be alive when they are outside of a host.
(D) They are only alive when they are inside of a host.

own proteins.
(C) Scientists who believe viruses are dead say viruses CANNOT rely on hosts
to make proteins.

and reproduce.
60. What can we understand from Paragraph (4) about parasites?
(A) They are unable to produce their own proteins.
(B) They make proteins only when it is necessary.
(C) They are considered living organisms.

Passage 1
The fire
(1) Over the roar of the fire, Mike heard Ben shout, "Hurry! The fire is almost on
us!" Mike's arms were sore and tired, but he swung his axe even faster. He
didn't even stop to wipe the tears from his stinging eyes. The greedy fire kept
coming. The more the fire destroyed, the more it wanted. Mike worked
shoulder to shoulder with the other smokejumpers to build a firebreak. His only
thought was to stop the flaming monster that was raging through the forest.
(2) At last the smoke jumpers finished the firebreak. If the fire were powerful
enough, it would jump over the firebreak that they had worked so hard to
make. Then they would have to start all over again. Mike stood motionless, his
face black with ash, his shirt wet with sweat. He was too exhausted to move
because he had given all of himself to fighting the fire. He turned his head and
noticed Ben watching him.
(3) Suddenly all that Ben had taught Mike about proving his bravery was clear.
A man was not brave if he did something just to prove his courage. He was
brave only when he forgot about himself. Today Mike had showed that he
cared very much about the others with whom he was working.

Giant Panda
(1) An American-born giant panda will soon be traveling to China. The
Chinese government has an agreement with foreign zoos to lend giant
pandas out only for scientific study. After a few years, they, and any cubs they
may produce, must all be returned to China. Mei Lan, a three-year-old
female, is being prepared for her trip to China, where her parents were born.
A special FedEx flight from the U.S. is being arranged for her.
(2) Chinese zookeepers are getting ready for her arrival by planning a special
diet, and even language lessons for her. They are advertising for a tutor to
teach Mei Lan Chinese. The caretakers at her new home, the Chengdu Panda
Research Center in Sichuan, want to help her adapt quickly and feel
comfortable in her new environment. Mei Lan has lived at a zoo in the city of
Atlanta, Georgia, since her birth, and she is unfamiliar with Chinese. The
teacher must have a bachelor's degree or higher and be fluent in both English
and Chinese.

Passage 3
Ozone ‫الاوزون‬
(1) Ozone is an undesirable secondary air pollutant in lower regions of the
atmosphere. In contrast, ozone in the upper region of the atmosphere, called
the stratosphere, has an important natural function. The ozone in the
stratosphere screens Earth from harmful ultraviolet light. Ozone forms in the
stratosphere through reactions of molecular oxygen that absorb radiation.
(2) Ozone molecules formed in the stratosphere absorb more than 90% of
ultraviolet radiation, including the higher energy ultraviolet light sometimes-
called UV-C and UV-B radiation. In this way, ozone serves to shield the lower
atmosphere and Earth's surface from a significant fraction of high-energy UV
light that is part of solar radiation. Ozone concentrations stay at relatively
fixed levels because ultraviolet light also decomposes ozone molecules to
reform oxygen molecules.
(3) The formation and decomposition of ozone produce a steady-state
concentration of ozone within the stratosphere. This layer or region of ozone
is sometimes called the ozonosphere, and a maximum concentration of about
10 ppm (parts per million) occurs in the stratosphere from 25 to 30 km in
altitude.
(4) Recent observations of the ozone layer using rocket, high-flying aircraft,
and satellites revealed that the ozone concentration is dramatically
decreasing, especially in the polar regions. This decrease in concentration is
called thinning of the ozone layer, and larger decreases are called "holes" in
the layer. The "holes" in the polar regions of Earth seem to vary with the
seasons. The hole over Antarctica is most widespread from September to
November, a time that corresponds to springtime in the southern
hemisphere, In Fall of 1998 the ozone hole over Antarctica was the largest
ever observed up to that time, "Holes" have also been observed over the
north pole and some industrialized regions of the northern hemisphere.
(5) A decrease in the ozone concentration allows more ultraviolet radiation to
reach the surface of Earth. This increase in radiation causes damage to
310

humans, other animals, plants, bacteria, and microscopic marine organisms


(phytoplankton and zooplankton). For each 1% decrease in the ozone layer,
there is a 2% increase in the UV radiation reaching Earth. It is estimated that a
2% increase in radiation may result in a 4% to 10% increase in basal-cell skin
cancer and an 8% to 20% increase in more serious squamous-cell skin cancer
but the significance of these effects is not known.
(6) The thinning of the ozone layer appears to be a result of human activity.
The chemical culprits are synthetic compounds containing chlorine, fluorine,
and carbon known as chlorofluorocarbons or CFCs (also known as Freons).
CFCs were developed in the 1930s. Over the years, they found use as coolant
gases in refrigerators and air conditioners, as propellant gases in aerosol cans,
as industrial solvents, and as foaming agents in plastic products like
Styrofoam and cushion materials. In the United States, they are no longer
used in aerosol cans and other uses are being phased out. Halons, which are
chemically similar to CFCs. find use in fire extinguishers and medical
anesthetics. Halons also affect the ozone layer.
(7) Most gaseous pollutants that enter the atmosphere have a natural sink.
The term sink refers to a long-term repository in the environment. A sink is
some place or chemical form in which a chemical ends up. Normally, a
pollutant is changed by some chemical reaction and is washed from the
atmosphere by the rain. Sulfur dioxide and nitrogen oxides, for example, are
transformed to sulfuric acid and nitric acid, which are carried to Earth as acid
rain.
(8) One reason CFCs are used in products or as solvents is that they are very
chemically inert. They are chemically stable, are nontoxic, do not support
combustion, and are non-corrosive. Because CFCs are chemically inert and
have no environmental sink, they are destructive to the ozone.

Passage 4
Heat Transfer
(1) Heat is the exchange of thermal energy between a system and its
surroundings caused by a temperature difference. There is a distinction
between temperature and heat. Temperature is the measure of the thermal
energy of a sample of matter. Heat is the transfer of thermal energy.
(2) Thermal energy always flows from matter at higher temperatures to
matter at lower temperatures. For example, a hot cup of coffee transfers
thermal energy-as heat--to the lower temperature surroundings as it cools
down. Imagine a world where the cooler surroundings actually got colder as
they transferred thermal energy to the hot coffee, which got hotter. Such a
world exists only in our imaginations, because a transfer of heat from a hotter
object to a colder one is a fundamental principle in our universe--no
exception has ever been observed. Consequently, the thermal energy in the
molecules within the hot coffee distributes itself to the molecules in the
surroundings. The heat transfer from the coffee to the surroundings stops
when the two reach the same temperature, a condition called thermal
equilibrium. At thermal equilibrium, there is no additional net transfer of heat.

Air Pollution ‫تلوث الهواء‬
(1) Air Pollution Air pollution describes the chemicals and gasses that enter
and cause harm to people, animals, and their environment. Two of the worst
types of pollution we experience in the world are outdoor air quality in cities
and indoor air Pollution. To solve the problem of air Pollution. It is necessary
to understand the causes and look for ways to fix them.
(2) Human activities have been the main causes of air Pollution, especially in
modern cities. To support a larger population, there is always a need for

energy. Transportation, and industries, which result in the spread of harmful


chemicals into the air. In addition to outdoor air pollution, there is another
type of pollution. The air quality around and inside buildings and structures is
known as indoor air quality. Indoor air quality has a direct effect on the
comfort and health of the people inside a building. Some of the common
sources of indoor air pollution include chemicals and cleaning products used
in homes and offices.
(3) There are some simple things people can do to help keep the air around
them cleaner. For example, people can use less energy because the more we
use sources of energy, like electricity and gasoline, the more air Pollution we
create. People can ride a bicycle or walk.

Passage 6
Currencies ‫العملات‬
(1) If you travel abroad frequently, you'll know that the exchange rates are not
always the same. Sometimes you get more foreign currency for your U.S.
dollar and sometimes you get less. That's because, for most currencies, the
exchange rate - floats or moves with the market. This movement (in
relationship to the U.S. dollar) is a source of risk in doing business with other
countries. Even though a company may be doing well within its own borders,
currency risk can make it a bad investment when converted to American
dollars. Currency fluctuations can happen very quickly. And they can go up
and down many times in the course of a day.
(2) The fortunes of a currency depend on many of the factors used to assess
country risk but takes on the added complexity of how the country is doing
relative to other countries. Reports of increased inflation immediately lower
currency rates. Other factors that influence currency could be the actions of
the central bank of the country, such as when it raises or lowers interest rates.
Therefore, one important factor in assessing a country's economy is the
volatility of its currency as compared to the US dollar. It's not just the volatility
of the currency that is critical; the nation's political stability and how this
matter is seen by other countries is also a cause for fluctuation.
38. What happens because of reports of increased inflation?
‫ماذا يحدث بسبب تقارير زيادة التضخم؟‬

Passage 9
Avalanches
Avalanches are mass movements of snow and ice, they move very fast and
average speeds are 40/60 km/h, but speeds of up to 200 km/h have been
recorded in Japan, Loose avalanches, made of fresh snow, usually occur soon
after a large full of snow. By contrast, slab avalanches occur at a later date,
when the snow has developed some cohesion and unites together more, Slab
avalanches are usually much larger than loose avalanches and cause much
more destruction. They are often started by a sudden rise in temperature,
which causes melting. This lubricates the slab and makes it unstable. Many of
the avalanches occur in spring when the snowpack is large and temperatures
are rising. There is also a relationship between the number of avalanches and
altitude. For example, in the Swiss Alps most occur between 2000 meters and
2500 meters and there is diminished occurrence both higher up and lower
down.

Passage 10
Emotions ‫المشاعر‬
(1) What comes to mind when you think of emotions? It's probably happiness,
sadness, or fear. Emotions such as happiness, anger, sadness, and fear are
important emotions, but human emotional experience is vast which means
that people are capable of experiencing a wide variety of feelings.
(2) Let's consider what emotions do and when emotions happen. According
to functionalist theories of emotion, emotions help people manage important
tasks. Fear, for example, prepares the body to fight or flee; happiness rewards
achieving goals and builds attachments to other people, but what causes
emotions to happen in the first place? Although it usually feels like something
in the world causes an emotion, such as a good hug, emotion theories argue
that emotions most likely come from how we think about what is happening
in the world, not what is really happening. After all, if things in the world
directly caused emotions, everyone would always have the same emotion in
response to something. Interest, for example, may motivate a person to learn
something new, whereas it may not create a response in someone else.
(3) For instance, appraisal theories propose that each emotion is caused by a
group of appraisals, which are evaluations and judgments of what events in
the world mean for our goals and well-being. We ask ourselves, is this
relevant to me? Does it further or obstruct my goals? Can I deal with it or do
something about it? Did someone do it on purpose? Different emotions come
from different answers to these appraisal questions.
(4) In general, emotions play important roles in everyday challenges such as
responding to threats and building relationships. But emotions also help in
other, more intellectual challenges for humans. Compared with other animals,
we are born with little knowledge but have the potential for enormous
intelligence. Emotions such as surprise, interest, and confusion first signal that
something out of the ordinary has happened that deserves our attention.
They then motivate us to engage with the new things that strain our
understanding of the world and how it works. Emotions surely help us to fight
or flee, but I believe that more importantly, they aid in learning, exploring,
and reflecting.

Passage 11
Passage A: Environmental Causes of Obesity
(1) Genetic factors are the forces inside you that cause you to gain weight and
stay overweight. On the other hand, environmental factors are the outside
forces that contribute to these problems. They include anything in our
environment that makes us more likely to eat too much or exercise too little.
Taken together, experts think that environmental factors are the driving force
for the causes of obesity and its dramatic rise.
(2) Environmental influences come into play very early in life, even before we
are born. Researchers believe that the environment surrounding babies
before they are born determines how they will develop later on in life. For
example, babies of mothers who smoked during pregnancy are more likely to
become overweight or develop a disease than those whose mothers did not
smoke.
(3) Childhood habits often stick with people for the rest of their lives. Kids
who drink sodas and other drinks that contain sugar and eat high calorie
foods develop a taste! for these products and continue eating them as adults,
these behaviors tend to promote weight gain. Similarly, kids who watch
television and play video games instead of being active may be programming
themselves for a sedentary future, which involves sitting down a lot rather
than moving around.
(4) In short, today's environment promotes obesity by encouraging us to eat
more and exercise less. There is also growing evidence that broader aspects
of the way we live - such as how much we sleep, our stress levels, and other
psychological factors can affect weight as well.
Passage B: The Food Factor in Obesity
(1) Today, Americans are eating more calories on average than they did in the
1970s. Experts believe that what is driving this trend is a combination of the
increased availability and bigger portions of higher calorie foods.
(2) Food is readily available practically everywhere we go -shopping centers,
sports stadiums, movie theaters. Today more Americans are eating outside
the home. For example, in 1970. Americans spent 27% of their food budget
on food they are outside the home; by 2006, that percentage had risen to
46%.

(3) In the 1950s, fast-food restaurants offered one portion size. Today, portion
sizes have suddenly increased, a trend that has spread in many other types of
food, from cookies to sandwiches. For example, a single "supersized" meal
may contain 1,500-2.000 calories, which are equal to all the calories that most
people need for an entire day.
(4) This is important because research shows that people will often eat what is
in front of them, even if they are already full. We are also eating more high
calorie foods (especially salty snacks, soft drinks, and pizza), which are much
more readily available than lower calorie choices, like salads and whole fruits.
Research also shows that what children eat when they are younger will affect
what they will eat as they grow older. Children who eat fast-food are likely to
continue to eat this type A of food later on life, which would cause them
many health problems. Doctors are now encouraging parents to help their
children to develop healthy eating habits from a younger age in order to
avoid any future health complications.

Passage 12
Bees ‫النحل‬
(1) The Holy Quran tells us that insects form communities (Surat al-An'am, 38)
and that they can communicate with one another (Surat an-Naml, 18) and
work together to produce food (Surat al-Nahl, 68-9). Modern science, more
than 1,400 years afterwards, has accepted that this information is indeed
correct. Now, scientists in the United Kingdom are learning that some of
these amazing creatures may also have feelings and emotions similar to those
of humans.
(2) At Newcastle University, they are trying to discover how some insects feel.
In recent years, honeybee numbers have been declining worldwide at a
disturbing rate. Many explanations have been given for this. Some say the bees
are dying because of disease and pesticides. Others say it may be due to
pollution or microwave towers. At any rate, this is a very serious situation, for
humans as well as for the bees. At least one-third of the world's crops depend
on bees. Farmers are worried. What about the bees? How do they feel? Are
they scared, sad or depressed?

(3) The researchers trained a group of bees to tell the difference between two
smells. After one smell, they were always given a sweet sugar reward. After the
other smell, they were given a bitter substance. They quickly learned to choose
the smell with the sweet prize and to stick out their tongues to get it. The
scientists wanted to see what the bees would do if they were put in a stressful
situation. They shook up half of the bees, to make them think they were in
danger. These stressed bees refused to put out their tongues for new smells,
and only chose the old smell which they knew would be followed by a sweet

treat. Even though there was an equal chance that a strange smell would taste
good, it seemed they believed it would taste bad and were afraid to try it. These
bees had become “pessimists". The other half-the unstressed bees-were much
more likely to try tastes from new smells, thus remaining “optimists”.

(4) When humans are stressed, anxious, worried or depressed, they have lower
levels of the brain hormone serotonin. So did the stressed bees. This may mean
that the feelings of anxious and stressed bees are similar to those of humans
with mood disorders. This knowledge, along with further investigations into
bee behavior and "feelings" can hopefully be used to understand and remedy
their declining numbers, for their sake and for ours.

Passage 1
Giant Panda
1) An American-born giant panda will soon be travelling to China. The Chinese
government has an agreement with foreign zoos to lend giant pandas out only for
scientific study. After a few years, they, and any cubs they may produce, must all be
returned to China. Mei Lan, a three-year-old female, is being prepared for her trip to
China, where her parents were born. A special FedEx flight from the U.S. is being
arranged for her.
2) Chinese zookeepers are getting ready for her arrival by planning a special diet, and
even language lessons for her. They are advertising for a tutor to teach Mei Lan
Chinese. The caretakers at her new home, the Chengdu Panda Research Center in
Sichuan, want to help her adapt quickly and feel comfortable in her new environment.
Mei Lan has lived at a zoo in the city of Atlanta, Georgia, since her birth, and she is
unfamiliar with Chinese. The teacher must have a bachelor's degree or higher and be
fluent in both English and Chinese.

21. According to Paragraph (2), why do the Chinese zookeepers want Mei Lan
to learn Chinese? ‫ لماذا يريد حراس الحديقة الصينيون أن تتعلم‬، )2( ‫وف ًقا للبرقراف‬

Passage 2
Stars
(1) If we look at the night sky carefully, we will see that the stars are of many
different colors. Some are red, others are yellow and some are blue. This is
also shown when we take color photographs of the night sky. You can take
such a photograph with an ordinary camera as long as it is kept steady. A
thirty second exposure is sufficient.
(2) Astronomers have been able to classify stars according to color. They have
found that blue stars are the largest and red stars the smallest. However,
there are a few stars which cannot be classified in this way. These are the
superstars. For example, Ryiejol is a blue superstar as big as 40.000 suns and
Beetlejuice is a superstar with a size equal to 17.000 suns.
(3) Suppose an astronomer observes two stars, one brighter than the other. If
neither of them is a superstar. he will know immediately that the brighter star
is closer. Astronomers have instruments like light meters which can measure
the brightness of a star quite accurately. It is possible to measure a star's
distance from the earth it astronomers know the color, brightness and
whether or not it is a superstar.

Passage 4
Using taxes to change social behavior
(1) Taxes can be used to change people's behavior and are often used to
reduce the amount of demerit goods people buy. Demerit goods are
products which can cause negative effects in an economy. Cigarette smoking
is one example and taxing smokers should, in theory, reduce the demand for
cigarettes. Taxes are also used to protect the natural environment by
charging those who pollute or damage it. For example, countries such as the
UK and China tax cars based on the engine size because vehicles with larger
engines tend to cause more pollution.
(2) Another example is the tax on plastic bags. Before July 2009, Hong Kong
used an average of 30 million plastic bags every day! For quite a small
population of 7 million people, this meant the average person in Hong Kong
was using more than four plastic bags every day, often just using each plastic
bag once only. This amazing figure meant that the country's landfills would
be unable to cope with the bags when they were thrown away.
(3) Hong Kong's introduction of a small tax (6.5 US cents) on the use of plastic
bags has encouraged people to use recycled shopping bags. In fact, demand
for plastic bags fell by 85 percent within the first 2 days of the tax being
introduced. This follows similar moves made by other countries such as China
(in 2007) and Ireland in 2002).
29. What is one important idea related to demerit goods mentioned in

(D) Good ideas are usually copied by other countries.

Passage 5
Financial Crash
(1) From the mid-1990s, financial institutions were putting more and more
money into new kinds of very risky investments. Some of these investments
are very difficult to understand, but the particular investments are a less
important factor than the technique called leverage that was (and is used to
make those investments.
(2) So what is leverage? In essence, it just refers to the practice of borrowing
money to make an investment. To see how it works and to see both how
attractive it can seem and how extremely risky it is, let's compare leverage
with an old-fashioned investment. Say you have $20,000 to invest in property.
You buy land worth $20,000. Over a period of time its market value increases
by 10%. You make $2,000. In the old days you might have been happy with
that. $2,000 is nice, but more would be better, wouldn't it? So why not
leverage?

331
‫أكاديمية عايد للتدريب‬
‫ وإلا تتحمل المسئولية كاملة أمام الجهات المختصة‬0568955606 ‫هذه الملفات خاصة بأكاديمية عايد محمية بحقوق حفظ ونسخ فلا تحاول الحصول عليها بط ريقة غير شرعية إلا عن طريق‬

(3) If you have $20,000, you should be able to persuade a financial institution
to lend you a lot more. Let's say you are loaned 19 times your original
amount, making the total sum $400,000. Wow! So, you invest $400,000 in
property. The value increases by 10%. You sell the property and count your
profits and find that you have made $40,000. Instead of the 10% profit you
would have made with the old-fashioned technique, you have made 200%!!
Of course, you have to pay interest on the money you borrowed, and that
might cut your profits in half, but 100% profit ($20,000) is still way, way better
than 10% ($2,000).
33. What does Paragraph (2) say about old-fashioned investments?
‫) عن الاستثمارات القديمة؟‬2( ‫ماذا يقول البرقراف‬
(A) They are an older leverage technique.
(B) They include a minimum investment of $20,000.
(C) They used to increase by 200% before the 1990s.
(D) They receive lower returns than leveraged investments.
34. How did leverage solve the issue of low investment returns?
‫كيف حلت الرافعة المالية مشكلة انخفاض عوائد الاستثمار؟‬
(A) It increased the value of investments by $40,000.
(B) It allowed people to borrow more money to invest.
(C) It helped people to find the best locations to invest in.
(D) It promised loans up to 19 times the amount a person had to invest.
35. Why does the writer use the word Instead in Paragraph (3)?
‫)؟‬3( ‫لماذا يستخدم الكاتب كلمة "بدلا من ذلك" في البرقراف‬
(A) to give more information about old-fashioned investments
(B) to show that investments made using leverage can gain greater profits
(C) to give an example of how using leverage was a bad investment
technique
(D) to show that you had to make old-fashioned investments before you can
use leverage promised loans up to 19 times the amount a person had to
invest.
36. Which word can we use to replace the word So in Paragraph (3)?

(C) He thinks it is good, but financial institutions dislike it.
(D) He thinks it is good, but leverage you a better return.

Passage 6
Increase in life expectancy
(1) The life expectancy is the average age to which a newborn baby can be
expected to live. In Europe between 1830 and 1900 the life expectancy was
40-50 years. Between 1900 and 1950 it rose to 65 and now it is 73-74 years. In
central Africa, life expectancy was rising to 58 years until the AIDS epidemic
caused it to fall back to about 45 years.

(2) These figures are averages. They do not mean, for example, that everyone
in the developing world will live to the age of 58. In the developing world,
40% of the deaths are of children younger than 5 years and only 25 - 30% are
deaths of people over 60. In Europe's, only 5 - 20% of deaths are those of
children below the age of 5, but 70-80% are of people over 60.

(3) An increase in the number of people over the age of 60 does not change
the rate of population growth much, because these people are past the age
when they can have children. On the other hand, if the death rate among
children falls and the extra children survive to have children of their own, then
the population will continue to grow. This is the chief reason for the rapid
population growth in the developing world since 1950.

38. What did AIDS lead to in central Africa? ‫ما الذي أدى إليه مرض الإيدز في‬
‫إفريقيا الوسطى؟‬
(A) A drop in the population growth rate.
(B) A drop in the average expected life time.

(C) A drop in the number of babies born alive.


(D) A drop in the health of children under the age of 5.

Passage 8
Muscle and Nerve Tissue
1) Muscle tissue is specialized for contraction. When muscle cells contract,
they shorten and bring about some type of movement. There are three
types of muscle tissue: skeletal, smooth, and cardiac. The movements each
can produce have very different purposes.
Skeletal muscle
2) Skeletal muscle may also be called striated muscle or voluntary muscle. .
Each one describes particular aspect of this tissue, as you will see. The
skeletal muscles cells are cylindrical have several nuclei each, and appear
striated or striped. The striations are the result of the precise arrangement
of the contracting proteins within the cells, skeletal muscle tissue makes up
the muscle that are attached to bones. These muscles are supplied with
motor nerves, and this move the skeleton. They also produce a significant
amount of heat, which is important to help maintain the body's constant
temperature. Each muscle cell has its own motor nerve ending. The nerve
impulses that can then travel to the muscles are essential to cause
contraction. Although we do not have to consciously, plan all our
movements. The nerve impulses for them originate in the cerebration. The
"thinking" part of the brain. Let us return to the three names for this tissue
"skeletal" describes its location, "striated" describes its appearance, and
"voluntary" describes how it functions.
Smooth Muscle
3) Smooth muscle may also be called involuntary muscle or visceral muscle.
The cells of smooth muscle have tapered ends, a single nucleus. and no

striations. Although nerve impulses do bring about contractions, this is not


something most of us can control, once the name involuntary. The rerun
visceral refers to internal organs, many of which contain smooth muscle.
The function of smooth muscle are actually functions of the organs in
which muscle is found in the smooth and infections, smooth muscle
contracts in waves called peristalsis to propel food through the digestive
tract. In the walls of arteries and values, smooth muscle constricts or
dilates the velars to maintain normal blood pressure. The inks of the eye
have two types of smooth muscle. There to constrict or dilates the pupil
which regulates the amount of light that strikes the retime. Other functions
of smooth muscle are mentioned in later chapters. This is an important
time that you will come across again and again in our study of the injured
body.
Cardiac muscle
4) The cells of the heart, cardiac muscle, are branched have one muscles
each, and have faint serration. The cell membranes at the ends of these
cells are somewhat folded and fit into matching folds of the membranes of
the next cells. (Interlock the fingers of both hands to get an idea of what
these adjacent members look like.)
These interlocking folds are called intercalated discs, and permit the electrical
impulses of muscle confection to pass swiftly from cell to cell. This enables the
heart to beat in a very perceive wave of contractions from the upper
chambers to the lower chambers. cardiac muscle as a whom is called the
myocardium, and forms the walls of the four chambers of the heart. Its
function. Therefore, is the function of the heart, to bump blood. The
contractions of the myocardium create blood pressure and keep blood
circulating throughout the body, so that the blood can carry out its many
functions. Cardiac muscle cells have the ability to contract by themselves.
Thus, the heart maintains its own beat. The rule of nerve impasses is to
increase or decrease the heart rate, depending upon whatever is needed by
the body in the particular situation.
Nerve Tissue
5) Nerve tissue consists of nerve cells called neurons and some specialized cells
found only in the nervous system. The nervous system has two divisions: the
336

central nervous system (CNS) and the peripheral nervous system (PNS). The
brain and spinal cord are the organs of the CNS. They are made of nervous and
specialized cells called neuroglia. the PNS consistencies of all the nerves that
energy from the CNS and supply the rest of the body. there nerves are made of
neurons and specialized cells called Schwann cells. the Schwann cells form
myelin sheaths to electrically instate nervous. Nervous are capable of generating
and transmuting electrochemical impulses. There are carry different kinds of
nervous. but they all have the same basic structure. The cell body contains the
muscles and is essential for the continuing life of the nervous. An axon is a
process (the name “process” here means “something that sticks cell.” a cellular
extension) that carries impulses away from the cell body. Its neuron has only one
axon. Dendrites into processes that carry impulses forward the cell body, a
neuron may have several dendrites. A nerve impulse travels along the cell
membrane of a nervous and is electrical. But where nervous need there is a small
space called synapse. Which an electrical imputes cannot cross. At a synapse,
between the axon of the neuron and the dendrite of cell body of the next
neuron, impales transmission depends upon chemicals called neurotransmitters.

Passage 9
Automation
The principal benefit of supermarket automation is inventory control. The
computer has a comprehensive record of each item sold as well as a record
of the quantity still in stock. Once this information is in the computer's
memory, it is a simple matter to have the computer printout daily a list of
those items that have gone below a predetermined number and, so, need to
be reordered. In effect, the responsibility of having to decide whether to
reorder each of perhaps 8,000 products is taken from the store manager, who
cannot accurately analyze every one of the 8,000 situations simultaneously,
and is given to a system ideally suited for such routine decision-making.

Passage 10
Hyperinflation
(1) Because Germany had no goods to trade after its defeat in WW1, the
Weimar government simply printed money. For Weimar government leaders
this seemed an attractive solution. It paid off its debts in the failing German
currency, the mark, including war loans of over €2200 million. The great
industrialists were able to pay of all their debts as well.

(2) This set off a chain reaction. With so much money in circulation prices
and wages rocketed, but people soon realized that this money was useless.
Workers needed trolleys to carry home their pay. Wages began to be paid
daily instead of weakly. The price of goods could rise between joining the
back of a queue in a shop and Teaching the front!
(3) While you might think that the poor suffered most, some historians argue
that the greatest casualties were middle-class Germans - those with saving A
prosperous middle-class family would find that their savings in the bank,
which might have bought them a house in 1921. by 1923 would not even buy
a loaf of bread. Pensioners found that their previously adequate monthly
pension would not even buy a cup of coffee.
(4) It was clear to all, both inside and outside Germany, that the situation
needed urgent action. In August 1923 a new government under Gustav
Stresemann took over He called off the passive resistance in the Ruhr. He
called in the useless marks and burned them, replacing them with a new
Currency - the American-backed Retenmark. He negotiated to reduce
Germany's debt and receive American loans under the Dawes Plan In
addition, Germany repaired relations with its neighbors and reopened tune
with renewed trade and the flow of American dollars, life improved. The
economic crisis was shed very quickly. Some historians suggest that this is
evidence that many problems were not as severe as its politicians had made
out.
(5) It is also increasingly clear, however, that the hibernation had done great
political damage to the Weimar government. Their right-wing opponents had
yet another problem to blame them for the movement had lost the part of
the middle classes.

on us!" Mike's arms were sore and tired, but he swung his axe even faster. He
didn't even stop to wipe the tears from his stinging eyes. The greedy fire kept
coming. The more the fire destroyed, the more it wanted. Mike worked
shoulder to shoulder with the other smoke jumpers to build a firebreak. His
only thought was to stop the flaming monster that was raging through the
forest.
(2) At last, the smoke jumpers finished the firebreak. If the fire were powerful
enough, it would jump over the firebreak that they had worked so hard to
make. Then they would have to start all over again. Mike stood motionless, his

Passage 3
Team Rubicon: Working for a not-for-profit organization
)1) Not-for-profit organizations contribute to a large part of economic activity
in the United States. They are clearly very powerful in the business world,
even though their focus on goals other than profit falls outside the traditional
model of a for-profit business. But it is this move away from a focus on profit
that allows them to follow their aims of social improvement and contribute to
society as a whole. To be truly useful in a not-for profit organization, a person
must share the organization's vision.
(2) The vision for Team Rubicon was created by its founders, Jake Wood and
William McNulty, who saw the devastation, caused by the Haiti earthquake in
2010 and immediately took action. Both former soldiers, Wood and McNulty
knew they could do something to help in this terrible situation. Within 24
hours, they had found the help of six other former soldiers, collected money,
food and medicines from friends and family, and made their way to Haiti to
help, and Team Rubicon was born.
(3) The organization gets its name from the Rubicon, a river in northern Italy
that Julius Caesar and his army crossed on their historical march to Rome,
with the river showing the point of no return. The name mirrors the founders'
experiences during the Haitian disaster, where despite advice from the
government and other aid organizations not to go ahead, their small team
crossed into Haiti from the Dominican Republic carrying essential equipment
and medicines to thousands of earthquake victims.
(4) Seven years later, Team Rubicon has two main aims: to pair the skills and
experiences of former soldiers with emergency workers to be ready for any
type of disaster and to provide a sense of community and achievement to
former soldiers who have served their country but may be experiencing
problems as a result of their war experiences.
347

(5) According to the organization's mission statement, Team Rubicon aims to


provide former soldiers with three things that they sometimes lose after
leaving the army: a purpose, gained through disaster relief, a sense of
community, built by working with others; and a feeling of self-worth from
recognizing the positive effect one individual can make when helping others.
(6) With its head office in the Los Angeles area. Team Rubicon has more than
60 employees who work in 10 regions around the country, along with more
than 40.000 volunteers who are ready to move into action within 24 hours.
Similar to company operations in for-profit organizations, staff positions at
Team Rubicon include local administrators; field operations (including
membership and training); marketing, communications, and social media;
fundraising and partnership development, finance and accounting, and
people operations.
(7) Team Rubicon's stall members bring professional and/or military
experience to their daily jobs. but they all Share the organization's vision.
Many staff members started as volunteers for Team Rubicon while working in
for-profit careers, while other took advantage of the organization’s strong
training program to become familiar with its aims.
(8) In 2016. Team Rubicon trained 8.000 former soldiers and emergency
workers in disaster relief and responded to 46 disasters, which required more
than 85.000 volunteer hours. In addition to donations from individuals.
Companies and other organizations. Team Rubicon relies on its partnerships
with companies, such as Southwest Airlines, which provides hundreds of free
plane tickets each year to fly volunteers to disaster sites.
(9) Team Rubicon engages its nationwide community at every level of the
organization, from volunteer to board member, and every step of its
operation: from training to planning to implementation to looking for and
finding donations and volunteers to help with any type of disaster relief. Over
the past several years. Team Rubicon has been recognized as one of the top
non- profits to work for by The Non-Profit Times, based on employee surveys
and business partners' opinions about the organization's work environment.

Passage 4
Mongols and Climate
(1) New research by tree-ring scientists from Columbia University's Lamont-
Doherty Earth Observatory and West Virginia University may have uncovered
the reason why an obscure band of nomadic Mongol horsemen were able to
sweep through much of Asia in a few meteoric decades 800 years ago,
conquering everything in their path: They enjoyed an unprecedented, and
yet-to-be-repeated, 15-year run of bountiful rains and mild weather on the
normally cold and arid steppes.
(2) By sampling tree rings in the gnarled and twisted Siberian pines in the
Hangay Mountains in central Mongolia, the team pieced together a
remarkably precise chronology of local climatic conditions stretching from the
year 900 A.D. to the present. The study, published in the National Academy of
Science offers a new interpretation of why the Mongols suddenly went on the
move.
(3) The traditional view has been that the Mongols were desperately fleeing
harsh conditions in their craggy, mountainous homeland. The Lamont-

Doherty team, however, found just the opposite: Between 1211 and 1225_ a
period that neatly coincides with the rise of Genghis Khan and the Mongol
empire, central Mongolia enjoyed a spell of sustained benign weather unlike
anything the region has experienced during at least the past 1,100 years and
probably much longer.
(4) "What makes our new record distinctive is that we can see 15 straight
years of above-average moisture," says the study's lead author. Neil
Pedersen, a tree-ring scientist with the Lamond-Doherty Earth Observatory.
"It falls during an important period in Mongol histone and is singular in terms
of persistently wet conditions.”

Passage 5
Inventory Management
(1) Inventory, or the amount of material a company holds. Can affect
customer satisfaction. Here, managers must maintain the delicate balance
between carrying too little inventory and carrying too much. With too little
stock. The firm risks not having products which customers want to buy. To
remedy this, the firm may need costly emergency shipments or production.
Carrying too much inventory results in higher-than-necessary inventory-
carrying costs and out-of-date stock. Thus, in managing inventory, firms must
balance the costs of carrying larger inventories against resulting sales and
profits.
(2) Many companies have greatly reduced their inventories and related costs
though just-in-time logistics systems with such systems, producers and
retailers carry only small inventories of points or merchandise, often only
enough for a few days of operations. New stock arrives exactly when needed,
rather than being stored in inventory until being used. Just-in-time systems
acquire accurate forecasting along with fast, frequent and flexible delivery so
that new supplies will be available when needed. However, these systems
result in substantial savings in inventory-carrying and handling Costs.
(3) Marketers are always looking for new ways to make inventory
management more efficient in the not-too- distant future. Handling inventory
might even become fully automated. For example, smart tag teclmology.by
which small transmitter clips are embedded more placed on products and
packaging on everything from flowers and razors to tires. Smart products
could make the entire supply chain - which accounts for nearly 75 percent of
a product's cost intelligent and automated.

Passage 6
The Spinal Cord
(1) The spinal cord is an information highway connecting the nervous system
to the brain. Ascending neural areas send up sensory information, and
descending areas send back motor-control information. A look at the neural
pathways that control our reflexes, our automatic responses to stimuli, shows
the spinal cords work. A simple spinal-reflex path is composed of a single

352
‫أكاديمية عايد للتدريب‬
‫ وإلا تتحمل المسئولية كاملة أمام الجهات المختصة‬0568955606 ‫هذه الملفات خاصة بأكاديمية عايد محمية بحقوق حفظ ونسخ فلا تحاول الحصول عليها بط ريقة غير شرعية إلا عن طريق‬

sensory neuron and a single motor neuron, which often communicate


through an interneuron.
(2) One such path makes up the pain reflex. When your fingers touch a hot
stove, neural activity excited by the heat travels via sensory neurons to
interneurons in your spinal cord. These interneurons respond by activating
motor neurons to the muscles in your arm, causing you to jerk your hand
away.
(3) Because the simple pain-reflex pathway runs through the spinal cord and
out, you jerk your hand from a candle's flame before your brain receives and
responds to the information that causes you to feel pain. Information travels
to and from the brain by way of the spinal cord. Were the top of your spinal
cord severed, you would not feel such pain. Or pleasure. Your brain would
literally be out of touch with your body. Thus, you would lose all sensation
and voluntary movement in body regions whose sensory and motor neurons
connect with the spinal cord below its point of injury.
38. What helps information travel up and down the spine?

(A) The brain
(B) Neural paths

Passage 8
European Heat Wave
(1) Another deadly heat wave has arrived in Europe this week. Record
temperatures went over 37.8 degrees Celsius (100 degrees Fahrenheit) in
parts of France, (Germany, Poland and Spain, with hotter days to come. The
same thing happened in 2018 when record-breaking heat was responsible for
700 deaths in Sweden and more than 250 in Denmark, countries that have
never needed air conditioning before this new era of extreme climate change
events.
(2) Europe's five hottest summers in the past 500 years have all occurred in
the last 15 years, not including this summer. All have been deadly. The 2003
heat wave was the worst, having led to the deaths of over 70.000 people; in
2010, 56,000 people died in Russia alone.
(3) These extreme heat events are all connected to a slower jet stream that
locks weather systems into place. Studies have linked the slowdown in the jet
stream-the band of high-altitude winds that sweep around the globe from
west to east to last summer's unprecedented droughts, heat waves, wildfires,
and flooding events across the entire Northern Hemisphere. This is also likely
to be behind India's weak monsoon rains and the widespread flooding in
certain areas of the U.S. this year.
(4) The loss of sea ice in the Arctic is increasing temperatures in the northern
regions of our planet, and that is disrupting the natural jet stream patterns.
Jet stream winds are driven by the temperature difference between the icy air
of the arctic and hot air from the tropics. A rapidly warming arctic-this past
winter it saw its lowest ever ice cover-reduces that temperature difference
and slows the jet stream.
355

(5) Like a slow-moving river, a slower jet stream forms deep curves and turns,
which can slow down during the summer. sometimes for weeks. Weather
patterns are also delayed with them, whether they are heat waves or
expected rains.
(6) Temperatures in Europe are nowhere near as hot as India's current month-
long heat wave, where temperatures on the Asian subcontinent reached 51°C
(123° F). Most Europeans, particularly in the north. are unused to anything
over 29°C (85° F). Air conditioning also remains rare in Europe. It is found in
less than five percent of homes in France. For example, and less than two
percent of German homes. As a result, the struggles of temperatures reaching
40°C in June will seriously test the abilities of Europeans to deal with the
hotter years ahead.
(7) The number of heat wave days in European cities are nearly double those
of the surrounding suburban and rural landscape because of the urban heat
island effect. Concrete and asphalt absorb heat during the day and release it
at night, which keeps urban areas hotter. Without major cuts in carbon
emissions, which are released into the air when we burn fossil fuels, scientists
argue that the number of heat wave days in cities are likely to increase 10
times by the end of this country.
(8) European governments and citizens are debating what to do about the
increasing heat. Some would argue that people should just buy air
conditioners to keep their homes cool. However, air conditioning increases
energy use, which will in turn increase carbon emissions across European
countries. Both governments and citizens are wary of increasing carbon
emissions because it would lock them in a cycle that would increase the
negative effects of climate change. Now these European countries face a
dilemma. Although the majority of citizens in Europe want more government
action to reduce carbon emissions, as the temperatures continue to increase,
the demand for air conditioning units will also continue to rise.
(9) Europe learned valuable lessons from the 2003 heat wave, which killed
more than 70.000 people across the continent. Governments have taken
several actions to ensure that death tolls would be more limited during this
heat wave. For example, Paris, which experienced many deaths in 2003, is
much better prepared this time around. Government officials have emergency

services in place and there has been a strong campaign to raise awareness of
the dangers of the heat wave around the city. Some schools in France have
also closed since most of them do not have air conditioners. The local
governments have also set up cooling areas and temporary water fountains in
busy city areas.
(10) Paris has relatively little green space and has been working for years on
how to “green up" and introduce more plants in order to counter the heat
held by stone and concrete. Paris officials also plan to keep 13 large parks
open all night during the anticipated heat wave because the temperature
there would be one or two degrees lower than in the rest of the city. There
are also plans to keep public swimming pools open later to encourage people
to swim at night in order to cool down from the heat. In Paris, older cars have
also banned from use city to reduce the city's air pollution. Which increases
during a heat wave.

Passage 10 Aggression in Children
(1) Most parents do not enjoy watching their children misbehave. Bad
behavior by children often results in bad behavior by parents. The first idea
that has to go is that poor parenting is what makes children misbehave or
behave badly. The cause of the child's behavior may lie in psychological
problems; it may even lie in the biology of the child. Whatever the reason, the
important issue is how parents respond when children act out.
(2) Aggressive behavior starts early in children's lives. A study looked at
children 6 to 24 months of age. Mothers reported how often their children
358
‫أكاديمية عايد للتدريب‬
‫ وإلا تتحمل المسئولية كاملة أمام الجهات المختصة‬0568955606 ‫هذه الملفات خاصة بأكاديمية عايد محمية بحقوق حفظ ونسخ فلا تحاول الحصول عليها بط ريقة غير شرعية إلا عن طريق‬

acted out, or displayed poor behavior. They cited kicking, hitting, pulling hair,
biting and even hurting animals. The most common actions were hitting or
smacking another person. The least common action was hurting animals.
Hitting someone peaked at 18 months when eight of 10 kids were hitting and
smacking other people. Kicking, pushing and throwing things peaked at 20
months. The “terrible twos" started before the age two.
(3) Pediatricians can assure parents that these behaviors are normal in small
children. The big job is to guide parents on how to deal with their children
when they behave this way. From the start, parents should set limits. They
need to respond in ways that may help redirect or distract a child. This would
help a child go from misbehaving to a more positive behavior. Pediatricians
believe these approaches work. It seems certain that positive responses such
as these are better than anger or punishment.
(4) The frequency, intensity, and length of the bad behavior are also
important. There are some questions that parents must also consider. Does
the child have any issues that he or she is dealing with? Does the child have
friends? Some children may show signs of depression when they have had a
negative experience. The answers to these questions may explain why the
child is acting out.
(5) Parents often use their instincts in dealing with their children without
considering what is causing the misbehavior. They may respond with anger,
threats. and punishment. A better way is to plan in order to avoid potential
conflicts. For example, if getting ready for school is a problem, parents can
come up with ways to make it easier. This would help them to avoid potential
problems before they start.

Passage 11
Passage A: Human Anatomy
(1) Human Anatomy is the scientific study of the body's structures. It is
significant so we know how the structure or organs are supposed to work
correctly. Some of those structures are very small and can only be observed
and analyzed with this assistance of a microscope. Other larger structures can
readily be seen manipulated, measured, and weighed the word "anatomy"
360
‫أكاديمية عايد للتدريب‬
‫ وإلا تتحمل المسئولية كاملة أمام الجهات المختصة‬0568955606 ‫هذه الملفات خاصة بأكاديمية عايد محمية بحقوق حفظ ونسخ فلا تحاول الحصول عليها بط ريقة غير شرعية إلا عن طريق‬

comes from a Greek root cut means “to cut apart." Human anatomy was first
studied by observing the exterior of the body and observing the wounds of
soldiers and other injuries. Later, physicians were allowed to dissect, or cut
open. bodies of the dead to increase their knowledge.
(2) When a body is dissected, its structures are cut apart in order to observe
their physical attributes and their relationships to one another. Dissection is
still used in medical schools, anatomy courses, and in pathology labs. In order
to observe structures in living people. however, a number of imaging
techniques have been developed. These techniques allow clinicians to see
structures inside the living body such as a cancer or a fractured bone.
(3) Like most scientific disciplines, anatomy has areas of specialization. Gross
anatomy is the study of die larger structures of the body, those visible without
the aid of magnification. Macro- means "large, thus: gross anatomy is also
referred to as macroscopic anatomy. In contrast, micro- means "small" and
microscopic anatomy is the study of structures that can be observed only with
the use of a microscope or other magnification devices.
Passage B: Human Physiology
(1) Whereas anatomy is about structure, physiology is about function. Human
physiology is the scientific study of the chemistry and physics of the structures
of the body and the ways in which they work together to support the
functions of life. It began in France over 200 years ago with a scientist named
Claude Bernard. Much of the study of physiology centers on the body's
tendency toward homeostasis. Homeostasis is the state of steady internal
conditions maintained by living things. The study of physiology certainly
includes observation, both with the naked eye and with microscopes, as well
as manipulations and measurements. However, current advances in
physiology usually depend on carefully designed laboratory experiments that
reveal the functions of the many structures and chemical compounds that
make up the human body and establish the foundation upon which we build
our knowledge of how to treat disease.
(2) Like anatomists, physiologists typically specialize in a particular branch of
physiology. For example, neurophysiology is the study of tic brain, spinal
cord. and nerves and how this work together to perform functions as complex
and diverse as vision, movement, and thinking. Physiologists may work from

the organ level (exploring, for example, what different parts of the brain do)
to the molecular level (such as exploring how an electrochemical signal travel
along nerves).
(3) Form is closely related to function in all living things. For example, the thin
flap of your eyelid can snap down to clear away dust particles and almost
instantaneously slide back up to allow you to see again. At the microscopic
level, the arrangement and function of the nerves and muscles that serve the
eyelid allow for its quick action and retreat.

Passage 12 Bees
(1) The Holy Quran tells us that insects form communities (Surat al-An'am,
38) and that they can communicate with one another (Surat an-Naml, 18) and
work together to produce food (Surat al-Nahl, 68-9). Modern science, more
than 1,400 years afterwards, has accepted that this information is indeed
correct. Now, scientists in the United Kingdom are learning that some of
these amazing creatures may also have feelings and emotions similar to those
of humans.
(2) At Newcastle University, they are trying to discover how some insects feel.
In recent years, honeybee numbers have been declining worldwide at a
disturbing rate. Many explanations have been given for this. Some say the bees
are dying because of disease and pesticides. Others say it may be due to
pollution or microwave towers. At any rate, this is a very serious situation, for
humans as well as for the bees. At least one-third of the world's crops depend
on bees. Farmers are worried. What about the bees? How do they feel? Are
they scared, sad or depressed?
(3) The researchers trained a group of bees to tell the difference between two
smells. After one smell, they were always given a sweet sugar reward. After the
other smell, they were given a bitter substance. They quickly learned to choose
the smell with the sweet prize and to stick out their tongues to get it. The
scientists wanted to see what the bees would do if they were put in a stressful
situation. They shook up half of the bees, to make them think they were in
danger. These stressed bees refused to put out their tongues for new smells,
and only chose the old smell which they knew would be followed by a sweet
treat. Even though there was an equal chance that a strange smell would taste

good, it seemed they believed it would taste bad and were afraid to try it. These
bees had become “pessimists". The other half-the unstressed bees-were much
more likely to try tastes from new smells, thus remaining “optimists”.
(4) When humans are stressed, anxious worried or depressed, they have lower
levels of the brain hormone serotonin. So did the stressed bees. This may mean
that the feelings of anxious and stressed bees are similar to those of humans
with mood disorders. This knowledge, along with further investigations into
bee behavior and "feelings" can hopefully be used to understand and remedy
their declining numbers, for their sake and for ours.

Passage 1
Purity
(1) Government legislation requires that a lot of testing takes place before a
new pharmaceutical is marketed.
(2) Throughout the chemical, pharmaceutical and food industries it is
essential that the substances used be pure. The purity of a substance can be
gauged by:
1. Its melting point - if it is a pure solid it will have a sharp melting point. If an
impurity is present then melting takes place over a range of temperatures.
2. Its boiling point - if it is a pure liquid the temperature will remain steady at
its boiling point. If the substance is impure then the mixture will boil over a
temperature range.
3. Chromatography - if it is a pure substance, it will produce only one well-
defined spot on a chromatogram. If impurities are present then several spots
will be seen on the chromatogram.

21. The word legislation in paragraph (1) is closest in meaning to ……………


........... ‫) هي الأقرب من حيث المعنى ل‬1( ‫كلمة "تشريع" في البرقراف‬

Passage 2
Company Stock
(1) There are three types of stock that a business can hold: stocks of raw
materials (inputs brought from suppliers waiting to be used in the production

‫أكاديمية عايد للتدريب‬
‫ وإلا تتحمل المسئولية كاملة أمام الجهات المختصة‬0568955606 ‫هذه الملفات خاصة بأكاديمية عايد محمية بحقوق حفظ ونسخ فلا تحاول الحصول عليها بط ريقة غير شرعية إلا عن طريق‬

process), work in progress (incomplete products still in the process of being


made) and stocks of finished products (finished goods of acceptable quality
waiting to be sold to customers).
(2) The aim of stock control is to minimize the cost of holding these stocks
whilst ensuring that there are enough materials for production to continue
and be able to meet customer demand. Obtaining the correct balance is not
easy and the stock control department will work closely with the purchasing
and marketing departments.
(3) The marketing department should be able to provide sales forecasts for
the coming weeks or months (this can be difficult if demand is seasonal or
prone to unexpected fluctuation) and so allow stock control managers to
judge the type, quantity and timing of stocks needed.
(4) It is the purchasing department's responsibility to order the correct
quantity and quality of these inputs, at a competitive price and from a reliable
supplier who will deliver on time.
(5) As it is difficult to ensure that a business has exactly the correct amount of
stock at any one time, the majority of firms will hold buffer stock. This is the
"safe" amount of stock that needs to be held to cover unforeseen
circumstances.

Passage 3
Separating Mixtures
(1) Many mixtures contain useful substances mixed with unwanted material. In
order to obtain these useful substances, chemists often have to separate
them from the impurities. Chemists have developed many different methods
of separation.
Filtering
(2) When a cup of tea is poured through a tea strainer, this is a filtering
process. Filtration is a common separation technique used in chemistry
laboratories throughout the world. It is used when a solid needs to be
separated from a liquid. For example, sand can be separated from a mixture
with water by filtering through filter paper. The filter paper contains holes that
are large enough to allow the molecules of water through but not the sand
particles. The sand gets trapped in the filter paper and the water passes
through it.
Decanting
(3) Vegetables do not dissolve in water. When you have boiled some
vegetables, it is easy to separate them from the water by pouring it off. This
process is called decanting. This technique is used quite often to separate an
insoluble solid (a solid that doesn't dissolve) from a liquid.
Centrifuging
(4) Another way to separate a solid from a liquid is to use a centrifuge. It is
usually used when the solid particles are so small that they spread out
throughout the liquid and remain mixed. They do not settle to the bottom of
the container, as heavier particles would do, under the force of gravity. The
technique of centrifuging involves the liquid being spun round very fast in a
centrifuge so that the solid gets flung to the bottom of the tube.
25. What does the writer think about the process of separating mixtures?
‫ما رأي الكاتب في عملية فصل الخلائط؟‬
(A) He thinks it's a new technique that needs to be developed.
(B) He thinks it's an ancient process that is useful in cooking.

(C) He thinks it's important because it helps to take out the substances that
have benefits.
(D) He thinks it's important because it keeps impurities from creating new
diseases.

26. What does Paragraph (2) say about filtering? ‫) عن‬2( ‫ماذا يقول البرقراف‬

(A) It is usually used in making coffee.
(B) It only works if the filter paper has a special number of holes.
(C) It is a process that only works when separating sand from a mixture.
(D) It works best, when the filter paper is able to stop the solid from passing.
27. Which words can we use to replace the words “for example” in Paragraph
(2)?
‫ما الكلمات التي يمكننا استخدامها لاستبدال الكلمات "على سبيل المثال" في البرقراف‬
‫)؟‬2(
(A) of course
(B) above all
(C) for instance
(D) at the same time
28. Why does the writer use the word "so" at the end of Paragraph (4)?
‫)؟‬4( ‫لماذا يستخدم الكاتب كلمة "هكذا" في نهاية البرقراف‬
(A) to give more information about centrifuging.
(B) to show that centrifuging is different from decanting.
(C) to show that centrifuging is the longest process for separating the tiny
solid particles from a liquid.
(D) to show that the process of spinning the liquid around quickly in
centrifuging causes the tiny solid particles to become separated.
29. How does centrifuging solve the problem of separating very small solids
from a liquid? ‫جدا عن‬ً ‫كيف يحل الطرد المركزي مشكلة فصل المواد الصلبة الصغيرة‬
‫السائل؟‬
(A) It moves the liquid around very quickly to get the solids to stay at the
bottom.
(B) It uses a special heating technique that is only available in some
laboratories.

(C) It uses boiling to separate an insoluble solid from a liquid.


(D) It uses a filter to separate solids, like sand, from a liquid.
Passage 4
Agriculture in the Middle East
(1) From the 8th century, the medieval Islamic world underwent a
transformation in agricultural practice, described by the historian Andrew
Watson as the Arab agricultural revolution. This transformation was driven by
a number of factors including the diffusion of many crops and plants along
Muslim trade routes, the spread of more advanced farming techniques, and
an agricultural-economic system which promoted increased yields and
efficiency. The shift in agricultural practice changed the economy, population
distribution, vegetation cover, agricultural production, population levels,
urban growth, the distribution of the labor force, cooking, diet, and clothing
across the Islamic world.
(2) Muslim traders covered much of the Old World, and trade enabled the
diffusion of many crops, plants and farming techniques across the region, as
well as the adaptation of crops, plants and techniques from beyond the
Islamic world. This diffusion introduced major crops to Europe by way of Al-
Andalus, along with the techniques for their cultivation and cuisine. Sugar
cane, rice, and cotton were among the major crops transferred, along with
citrus and other fruit trees, nut trees, vegetables such as eggplant, and
spinach and the use of spices such as cumin, coriander and cinnamon,
Intensive irrigation crop rotation and agricultural manuals were widely
adopted. Irrigation, partly based on Roman technology, made use of water
wheels, water mills, dams and reservoirs.
30. What is one important idea in the passage? ‫ما هي إحدى الأفكار المهمة في‬

(A) Cumin is a spice.
(B) The economy changed.
(C) Farming provided food to Europe.

Passage 7
Stages of Economic Activity
(1) There are three main stages of economic activity. These stages are typical
of nearly all production and they are called the levels of economic — or
business activity:
371
‫أكاديمية عايد للتدريب‬
‫ وإلا تتحمل المسئولية كاملة أمام الجهات المختصة‬0568955606 ‫هذه الملفات خاصة بأكاديمية عايد محمية بحقوق حفظ ونسخ فلا تحاول الحصول عليها بط ريقة غير شرعية إلا عن طريق‬

(2) Stage 1 is called the primary stage of production. This stage involves the
earth's natural resources. Activities in the primary sector of industry include
farming, fishing, forestry and the extraction of natural materials, such as oil
and copper ore.
(3) Stage 2 is called the secondary stage of production. This stage involves
taking the materials and resources provided by the primary sector and
converting them into manufactured or processed goods. Activities in the
secondary sector of industry include building and construction car
manufacturing and computer assembly.
(4) Stage 3 is called the tertiary stage of production. This stage involves
providing services to both consumers and other businesses. Activities in the
tertiary sector of industry include transport, banking, retail, insurance, hotels
and hairdressing.
(5) In some countries, primary industries such as mining employ many more
people than manufacturing or service industries. These tend to be countries
—often called developing countries — where manufacturing industry has
only recently been established. As most people still live in the rural areas with
low incomes, there is little demand for services such as transport, hotels and
insurance. The levels of both employment and output in the primary sector in
these countries are likely to be high. In countries which started up
manufacturing industries many years ago, the secondary and tertiary sectors
are likely to employ many more workers than the primary sector. The level of
output in the primary sector is often small compared to the other two sectors.
34. What is the main topic of the passage? ‫ما هو الموضوع الرئيسي للقطعه؟‬
(A) Production is the first stage.

Passage 8
The Demographic Transition
(1) Human societies had equally high birthrates and death rates during most
of history. But over the past century, population growth in the United States,
Japan, and much of Europe slowed dramatically. Demographers developed a
hypothesis to explain this shift. According to this hypothesis, these countries
have completed the demographic transition, a dramatic change from high
birthrates and death rates to low birthrates and death rates. The demographic
transition is divided into three stages.

(2) To date, the United States, Japan and Europe have completed the
demographic transition. Parts of South America, Africa, and Asia, are passing
through stage II. (The United States passed through stage II Between 1790
and 1910.) A large part of human population growth is happening in only ten
countries, with India and China in the lead. Globally, human population is still
growing rapidly, but the rate of growth is slowing down.

Future Population Growth

(3) To predict how the world's population will grow, demographers consider
many factors, including the age structure of each country and the effects of
diseases on death rates, especially in Africa and parts of Asia. Current
projections suggest that by 2050 the world population will reach 9 billion
people. Will the human population level out and become stable? This may
happen if countries that are currently growing rapidly complete the
demographic transition.
(4) Current data suggest that global human population will grow more slowly
over the next 50 years than it grew over the last 50 years. But because the
growth rate will still be higher than zero in 2050, our population will continue
to grow.

Passage 9
Psychoanalysis
What are the aims and methods of psychoanalysis?
(1) Although most of today's therapists do not practice therapy as Sigmund
Freud did, his psychoanalytic techniques survive. Psychoanalysis is part of our
modern vocabulary, and its assumptions influence many other therapies.
Aims
(2) Psychoanalysis assumes that many psychological problems are fueled by
childhood's residue of supposedly repressed impulses and conflicts.
Psychoanalysts try to bring these repressed feelings into conscious awareness,
where the patient can deal with them. By gaining insight into the origins of
the disorder - by fulfilling the ancient imperative to know thyself" in a deep
way - the patient "works through" the buried feelings. The theory presumes
that healthier, less anxious living becomes possible when patients release the
energy they had previously devoted to id-ego-superego conflicts.
Methods
(3) Psychoanalysis is historical reconstruction. Its goal is to unearth the past in
hope of unmasking the present. But how?
(4) When Freud discarded hypnosis as unreliable, he turned to free
association. Imagine yourself as a patient using the free association
technique. The analyst invites you to relax, perhaps by lying on a couch. He or
she will probably sit out of your line of vision, helping you focus attention on
your internal thoughts and feelings. Beginning with a childhood memory, a
dream, or a recent experience, you say aloud whatever comes to your mind
from moment to moment. It sounds easy, but soon you notice how often you
edit your thoughts as you speak, omitting material that seems trivial,
irrelevant, or shameful. Even in the safe presence of the analyst, you may
375
‫أكاديمية عايد للتدريب‬
‫ وإلا تتحمل المسئولية كاملة أمام الجهات المختصة‬0568955606 ‫هذه الملفات خاصة بأكاديمية عايد محمية بحقوق حفظ ونسخ فلا تحاول الحصول عليها بط ريقة غير شرعية إلا عن طريق‬

pause momentarily before uttering an embarrassing thought. You may make


a joking remark or change the subject to something less threatening.
Sometimes your mind may go blank or you may find yourself unable to
remember important details.
(5) To the psychoanalyst, these blocks in the flow of your free associations
indicate resistance. They hint that anxiety lurks and that you are repressing
sensitive material. The analyst will want to explore these sensitive areas by
making you aware of your resistances and by interpreting their underlying
meaning. The analyst's interpretations - suggestions of underlying wishes,
feelings, and conflicts - aim to provide people with insight. If offered at the
right moment, the analyst's interpretation - of, say, your not wanting to talk
about your mother - may illuminate what you are avoiding. You may then
discover what your resistances mean and how they fit with other pieces of
your psychological puzzle.
(6) Freud believed that another clue to repressed impulses is your dreams'
hidden content. Thus, after inviting you to report a dream, the analyst may
offer a dream analysis, suggesting its hidden meaning.
(7) During many such sessions you will probably disclose more of yourself to
your analyst than you have ever revealed to anyone. Because psychoanalytic
theory emphasizes the formative power of childhood experiences, much of
what you reveal will pertain to your earliest memories. You will also probably
find yourself experiencing strong positive or negative feelings for your
analyst. Such feelings may express the dependency or mingled love and
anger that you earlier experienced toward family members or other important
people in your life. When this happens, Freud would say you are actually
transferring your strongest feelings from those other relationships to the
analyst. Analysts and other therapists believe that this transference exposes
long-repressed feelings, giving you a belated chance to work through them
with your analyst's help. By examining your feelings toward the analyst, you
may also gain insight into your current relationships.
(8) Note how much of psychoanalysis is built on the assumption that
repressed memories exist. That assumption is now questioned. This challenge
to an assumption that is basic to so much of professional and popular
psychology is provoking intense debate.
376
‫أكاديمية عايد للتدريب‬

(9) Critics also say that psychoanalysts' interpretations are hard to refute. If, in
response to the analyst's suggested interpretation, you say, "Yes! I see now",
your acceptance confirms the analyst's interpretation If you emphatically say,
"No! That doesn't ring true," your denial may be taken to reveal more
resistance, which would also confirm the interpretation Psychoanalysts
acknowledge that it's hard to prove or disprove their interpretations. But they
insist that interpretations often are a great help to patients.
(10) Traditional psychoanalysis is slow and expensive. It requires up to several
years of several sessions a week with a highly trained and well-paid analyst.
(Three times a week for just two years at $100 or more per hour comes to
about $30,000.) Only those with a high income can afford such treatment.

(11) Although there are relatively few traditional psychoanalysts,


psychoanalytic assumptions influence many therapists, especially those who
make psychodynamic assumptions. Psychodynamic therapists try to
understand patients' current symptoms by exploring their childhood
experiences, They probe for supposed repressed, emotion-laden information.
They seek to help people gain insight into the unconscious roots of problems
and work through newly resurrected feelings. Although influenced by Frend’s
psychoanalysis, these therapists may talk to people face to face (rather than
out of the line of vision), once a week (rather than several times weekly), and
for only a few weeks or months (rather than several years).

Passage 10
Nano wood
(1) Expanded polystyrene (or “Styrofoam") is an excellent insulator. That's why
it's a popular material for insulating buildings—and why those cheap little
cups of deli coffee still burn your tongue after 30 minutes. But its
environmental record leaves something to be desired. It's non-biodegradable,
harmful to animals who accidentally eat it and made from potential
carcinogens or cancer-causing chemicals.
(2) Researchers at the University of Maryland have developed a super-
lightweight insulating material they say could prove to be a better, more eco-
friendly alternative. The material, made from tiny wood fibers, is called Nano
wood. It blocks heat at least 10 degrees better than Styrofoam or silica
aerogel, a common insulator, and it can take a least 30 times more pressure
than 45n crushed.
(3) Working in the lab of materials scientist Liang Bing Hu. postdoctoral
researcher Tain Li is the lead author on the study, published in the journal
science Advances.
(4) Hu and his team had been working on Nano cellulose, the Nano-sized
version of the fibrous material that makes plants and trees rigid. Nano
cellulose has an impressive strength-to-weight ratio, about eight times
greater than of steel.
(5) For the Nano wood, the them removed the lignin, the polymer that holds
the cells of wood together Removing the lignin, a heat conductor. gave the
resulting product powerful capabilities. It also turned the product white which
means it reflects light. The think Nano wood has enormous potentials as a
green, material. Using it could potentially «save billion» in energy costs says
Li.

Statistics
(1) In statistics, we generally want to study a population. You can think of a
population as a collection of persons, things, or objects under study. To study
the population, we select a sample. The idea of sampling is to select a portion
of the larger population and study that portion (the sample) to gain
information about the population.
(2) Data are the result of sampling from a population. Because it takes a lot of
time and money to examine an entire population, sampling is a very practical
technique. If you wished to calculate the overall grade point average at your
school, it would make sense to select a sample of students who attend the
school. The data collected from the sample would be the students' grade
point averages. In presidential elections, opinion poll samples of 1,000 to
2,000 people are taken. The opinion poll is supposed to represent the views
of the people in the entire country. Manufacturers of canned carbonated
drinks take samples to determine if a 16-ounce can contain 16 ounces of
carbonated drink. From the sample data, we can calculate a statistic. A
statistic is a number that represents a property of the sample.
(3) One of the main concerns in the field of statistics is how accurately a
statistic estimates a parameter. The accuracy really depends on how well the
sample represents the population. The sample must contain the
characteristics of the population in order to be a representative sample.
49. How can statistics be more accurate? ‫كيف يمكن أن تكون الإحصائيات أكثر‬
‫دقة؟‬
(A) by using a lot of time and money.
(B) by finding the overall average
(C) by asking people's opinions.
(D) by using the right sample.

Passage 13
Structuralist Psychologists
(1) The earliest psychologists that we know about are the Greek philosophers
Plato (327-428 BC) and Aristotle (384-322 BC). These philosophers asked
many of the same questions that today's psychologists ask; for instance, they
questioned the distinction between nature and nurture and the existence of
free will. In terms of the former, Plato argued on the nature side, believing
that certain kinds of knowledge are innate or inborn, whereas Aristotle was
more on the nurture side, believing that each child is born as an “empty slate”
(in Latin a tabula rasa) and that knowledge is primarily acquired through
learning and experience.
(2) European philosophers continued to ask these fundamental questions
during the Renaissance. For instance, the French philosopher René Descartes
(1596-1650) also considered the issue of free will, arguing in its favor and
believing that the mind controls the body through the pineal gland in the
381
‫أكاديمية عايد للتدريب‬
‫ وإلا تتحمل المسئولية كاملة أمام الجهات المختصة‬0568955606 ‫هذه الملفات خاصة بأكاديمية عايد محمية بحقوق حفظ ونسخ فلا تحاول الحصول عليها بط ريقة غير شرعية إلا عن طريق‬

brain (an idea that made some sense at this time but was later proved
incorrect). Descartes also believed in the existence of innate natural abilities. A
scientist as well as a philosopher, Descartes dissected animals and was among
the first to understand that the nerves controlled the muscles.
He also addressed the relationship between mind the mental aspects of life)
and body (the physical aspects of life). Descartes believed in the principle of
dualism that the mind is fundamentally different from the mechanical body.
Other European philosophers, including Thomas Hobbes (1588-1679). Jolm
Locke (1632-1704), and Jean-Jacques Rousseau (1712–1778). also weighed in
on these issues. psychologist Wundt (1832–1920), who developed a
psychology laboratory in Leipzig Germany. and the American psychologist
William James (1842–1910), who founded a psychology laboratory at Harvard
University.
(3) Wundt's research in his Laboratory in Liepzig focused on the of
consciousness Itself. Wundt and his students believed that it was possible to
analyze the basic elements of the mind and to classify our conscious
experiences scientifically. Wundt began the field know as structuralism, a
school of psychology whose goal was to Identify the basic elements or
«structures» of psychological experience. Its goal was to create a «periodic
table» of the «elements of sensations» similar to the periodic table of
elements that had recently created in chemistry.
(4) Structural used the method of introspection to attempt to create a map of
the elements of consciousness Introspection involves asking research
participants to describe exactly what they experience as they work on mental
tasks. such as viewing colors. reading a page in a book or performing a math
problem.
instance, that he saw some black and colored straight and curved marks on a
white background. In other studies the structuralists used newly invented
reaction time instruments to systematically assess not only what the
participants were thinking but how long it took them to do so. Wundt
discovered that it took people longer to report what sound they had just
heard that to simply respond that they had heard the sound. These studies
marked the first time researchers realized that there is a difference between
the sensation of a stimulus and the perception of that stimulus, and the idea
382

of using reaction time to study mental events has now become a mainstay of
cognitive psychology
(5) Perhaps the best known of the structurnlists was Edward Bradford
Titchener (1867-1927). Titchener was a student of Wundt who came to the
United States in the late 1800s and founded a laboratory at Comell
University. In his research using introspection, Titchener and his students
claimed to have identified more than 40,000 sensations, including those
relating to vision, hearing, and taste.
(6) An important aspect of the structuralist approach was that it was rigorous
and scientific. The research marked the beginning of psychology as a science,
because it demonstrated that mental events could be quantified. But the
fundamental problem that these philosophers faced was that they had few
methods for settling their claims. Most philosophers didn't conduct any
research on these questions. In part because they didn't yet know how to do
it, and in part because they weren't sure it was even.
53. What does Descartes' principle of duality deal with?
‫ما الذي يتعامل معه مبدأ ديكارت للازدواجية؟‬
(A) body and mind
(B) nerves and muscles
(C) humans and animals

54. What three examples did the structuralists use to explain introspection?
‫ما هي الأمثلة الثلاثة التي استخدمها البنيويون لشرح الاستبطان؟‬
(A) tasting some food, hearing a sound and performing a math problem.
(B) viewing colors, reading a book and performing a math problem.
(C) tasting some food, reading a book and drawing a picture.
(D) viewing colors, drawing a picture and hearing a sound.
Passage 14
Viruses
(1) Some illnesses are caused by bacteria. Bacteria are alive: They're very small
— you can't see them without a microscope — but they take in nutrients,
reproduce and die. Viruses can make copies of themselves only by hijacking
the cells of the creatures they infect. When the flu virus is outside of your

body — lurking on a doorknob, for instance — it's dead by any definition. But
once inside your body, it shows many of the characteristics of life. Viruses
might even be the descendants of living organisms that shed seemingly
necessary traits to live more efficiently with a little help from our cells).
(2) “Most viruses have molecules — genes and proteins —like us and other
live beings. However, they need another living being to make these proteins,”
says Jordi Paps, an evolutionary biologist at the University of Essex in England.
(3) Some researchers point out that many organisms —including such
parasites as tapeworms that can live in your gut — need hosts to feed them
and help them reproduce. Viruses aren't so different.
(4) However, others say that all organisms, parasites or not, can make
proteins by themselves, but viruses can't, so this is why they do not consider
them alive, Paps says.
(5) Other scientists see it differently. “Viruses can be regarded similar to
"seeds' of plants”, says Gustavo.
55. What idea do the words “with a little help from our cells" repeat?
‫ما الفكرة التي تكررها عبارة "مع القليل من المساعدة من خلايانا"؟‬
(A) Viruses need a host to live.
(B) Viruses can only infect humans.
(C) Viruses cooperate with living organisms.
(D) Viruses are the descendants of living organisms.

(A) All viruses can live outside of their hosts.
(B) All viruses have molecules and are alive.

Passage 15
Private Limited Companies
Passage A: Advantages of a private limited company
(1) Shares can be sold to a large number of people (in some countries there is
a maximum number). These can include friends and relatives - they cannot
advertise the shares for sale to the general public. The sale of shares could
lead to much larger sums of capital to invest in the business than original
partners could manage to raise themselves. The business could therefore
expand more rapidly.
(2) All shareholders have limited liability. This is an important advantage. It
means that if the company failed with debts owing to creditors, the
shareholders could not be forced to sell their possessions to pay the debts.
The shareholders could only lose their original investment in the shares - their
liability is limited to the original investment. Shareholders in a company have
less risk than sole traders and partners. Limited liability encourages people to
buy shares, knowing that the amount they pay is the maximum they could
lose if the business is unsuccessful. It is important that the people and other
businesses that deal with a private limited company know that it is not a sole
trader or a partnership. Creditors, for example, need to be aware that if the
business did fail, then they could not take the owners to court to demand
payment from their savings. For this reason, all private limited company
names must end with 'Limited', or 'Ltd' as an abbreviation. In some countries,
although not the UK, this title is amended to 'Proprietary Limited' or (Pty) Ltd'.
There can be many shareholders, but they need permission from other
shareholders to sell their shares.

Passage B: Disadvantages of a private limited company


(1) There are significant legal matters which have to be dealt with before a
company can be formed. In particular, two important forms or documents
have to be sent to the Registrar of Companies.
(2) The Articles of Association - This contains the rules under which the
company will be managed - the rights and duties of all of the directors; rules

385
‫أكاديمية عايد للتدريب‬
‫ وإلا تتحمل المسئولية كاملة أمام الجهات المختصة‬0568955606 ‫هذه الملفات خاصة بأكاديمية عايد محمية بحقوق حفظ ونسخ فلا تحاول الحصول عليها بط ريقة غير شرعية إلا عن طريق‬

concerning the election of directors and the holding of official meetings; and
the procedure to be followed for the issuing of shares.
(3) The Memorandum of Association - This contains very important
information about the company and the directors. The official name and the
address of the registered offices of the company must be stated. The
objectives of the company must be stated as well as the number of shares to
be bought by each of the directors.
(4) Both of these documents are intended to make sure that companies are
correctly run and to reassure shareholders about the purpose and structure of
the company. Once these documents have been received by the Registrar of
Companies, then a Certificate of Incorporation will be issued to allow the
company to start trading.
(5) The shares in a private limited company cannot be sold or transferred to
anyone else without the agreement of the other shareholders. This rule can
make some people reluctant to invest in such a company because they may
not be able to sell their shares quickly if they require their investment back.
(6) The accounts of a company are less secret than for either a sole trader or
a partnership. Each year the latest accounts must be sent to the Registrar of
Companies and members of the public can inspect them. Owners have to be
prepared to allow more information about their business to be known to
other people.

(7) Most importantly for rapidly expanding businesses, the company cannot
offer its shares to the general public. Therefore, it will not be possible to raise
really large sums of capital to invest back into the business.

58. What do passages A and B say about a private limited company?


‫ماذا تقول القطعتان "أ" و "ب" عن الشركة الخاصة المحدودة؟‬
(A) Its shareholders have low personal financial risk, but they must get
permission to sell their shares.
(B) Its shareholders can be a large number of people, but they must be
friends and relatives.
(C) It must write articles of association and publish names and addresses of all
its workers.

(D) It must use the word 'Limited' or 'Ltd' after its name and create a
company logo.
59. What do passages A and B say about the shareholders of a private limited
company? ‫ماذا تقول القطعتان "أ" و "ب" عن المساهمين في شركة خاصة محدودة؟‬
(A) They must also be directors of the company and go to official meetings.

from the Registrar of Companies.
60. What do passages A and B say about a private limited company obtaining
capital investment? ‫ماذا تقول القطعتان "أ" و "ب" عن شركة خاصة محدودة تحصل‬
‫على استثمار رأسمالي؟‬
(A) It can sell shares to the general public and expand more rapidly than a
sole trader.
(B) It must become a (Pty) Ltd company if it needs really large sums for rapid
expansion.
(C) It can raise more than a sole trader, but it is difficult to raise extremely
large sums.
(D) It must offer new shares to family and friends before offering them to the
general public.

Passage 1 ‫تلوث الهواء‬


Air pollution is a major problem all over the world today. Scientific research
now shows us that indoor air pollution be a much greater danger than
outdoor pollution. In one 2009 study, researchers found 586 chemicals in the
air of 52 typical homes in Arizona, USA. In today's society, most people spend
up to 90% of their time inside buildings. When there inadequate ventilation
and no access to fresh air, all the harmful elements are kept inside. This
condition is known “sick building syndrome” and is made worse because we
seal our buildings tightly to reduce energy costs.
21. How much of their time do most people spend these days?
‫كم من الوقت يقضيه معظم الناس هذه الأيام في الداخل؟‬
(A) 10%
(B) 24%
(C) 52%
(D) 90%
22. Why does bad air stay inside buildings? ‫لماذا يبقى الهواء السيئ داخل‬
‫المباني؟‬
(A) because the buildings are old.
(B) because the fresh air goes out.
(C) because people want to save energy costs.
(D) because people spend most of their time indoors.
Passage 2
(1) A matryoshka doll refers to a set of dolls of decreasing word size placed
one inside the other. The word "matryoshka" literally "little matron", is a
diminutive form of the Russian female first name "Matryona". The first doll set
in Russia was carved in 1890 by Vasily Zvyozdochkin from a design by Sergey
Malyutin, who was a folk crafts painter. Traditionally the outer layer is a
woman, dressed in a sarafan, a long traditional Russian dress.
(2) It is believed Zvyozdochkin and Malyutin were inspired by a doll from
Honshu, the main island of Japan. Sources differ in their descriptions,

Passage 3
(1) One type of threat to the ecosystem is endangering an animal species
through overhunting, thus killing them faster than they can reproduce. Some
species now are endangered because of the large profits in the trade of
luxury goods made from materials they provide. For example, elephants are a
prime source for ivory. The trade in goods obtained by killing animals in
danger of extinction is estimated at a minimum of five billion dollars annually.
(2) There is an incredible link that exists between all living and nonliving
things. Thus, although at first it is surprising, the poisoning or deliberate
extermination of animals classified as pests or predators may endanger
animals further down the food chain. Likewise, bringing in animals not native
to a local habitat may upset the ecosystem.
25. The pronoun they in Paragraph (1) refers to ……………

(A) affect the food chain


(B) improve the conditions of life
(C) create more land for agriculture
(D) save domestic animals and humans

Passage 4
Plants that lack lignin (or have only small amounts of it) are called herbs. They
can stay upright because each of their cells is filled with water under pressure.
This water pressure or "turgor"-makes them rigid like a well-inflated football.
But such plants wilt when their water supply fails. Vascular plants with lignin,
however, can survive dry periods and can grow far bigger than any herb.
Many herbs have some lignin that toughens them here and there, yet they
remain primarily herby. True wood requires special architecture the lignin-
toughened
cells are very well organized and arranged.

27. Herbs are plants that are …………….‫الأعشاب هي نباتات‬


(A) bigger than vascular plants
(B) made largely of lignin
(C) special in architecture
(D) pressurized by water

Passage 5
Matthew and I have been friends for many years. He’s a really good language
learner. He speaks nine languages and he can understand another ten
without even living in another country. So, I asked him for some ideas on
learning foreign languages. Here are some of them:
1. Think about why you want to learn a language. Maybe there is a book that
you want to read in another language.
2. Find a partner who you can practice the language with. For example, if you
want to learn Chinese, try to find a Chinese speaker.
3. If you can't find a partner, practice new words or phrases by speaking to
yourself.

Passage 7
(1) Paul attended a weekend workshop on mindfulness training and it had
been great. He felt he had really benefited from what he had learned.
Mindfulness is basically a way to discipline and control one's actions in such a
way that they are always in line with one's goals. The first thing he had
learned was that for attentive mindfulness, a person's goals in life must be
clearly thought out and selected. Once that is done, the next step is to keep
all details on how we spend our energy in a state of conscious awareness. The
result is that we are always on target. The most insignificant detail then
becomes an effortless expenditure of energy that keeps us in line with our
goals.
(2) As the weekend came to an end. Paul thanked those who had made
presentations and conducted the workshop. He also thanked the other
participants who had shared the weekend with him. He affirmed that he
valuable lessons in maintaining who had made presentations had indeed
learned. He brought presents that would like his two daughters. He and his
wife had been searching for some special lamps for their bedrooms, but
hadn't been able to find what the girls wanted. In the big city he found
exactly what each of them had said they wanted, and on top of that, he knew
his wife would be more than pleased with the beautiful necklace and earrings
he had purchased.
(3) while he was driving home, suddenly, a shocking realization came to him
an hour after he had been on the road. His bag! He had left it behind at the
hotel. On his way to the car with the bag. he had decided to stop in the gift
shop and pick up something to eat in case he got hungry while driving. From

the gift shop he went directly to his car without the bag. There was nothing to

Passage 8
(1) None of mankind's modern inventions have had more impact than fire, the
wheel, and writing. It is more accurate to think of these as ancient discoveries
rather than inventions. These three discoveries made a long time ago
continue to make the greatest impact on our world.
(2) Early man observed fire as a natural and very frightening disaster that
could destroy his environment and all that was in it, including himself. Over
time, he learned how to tame it and use it for cooking and keeping himself
warm in cold weather. Fire is now used extensively, even in ways that are not
so obvious. For example, fire is an operating principle in all kinds of engines
that have transformed modern life. Yet there remains a dark side. Weapons of
all kinds utilize fire to enhance their capacity to kill and destroy on a scale
previously unthinkable.

Passage 9
(1) If you've ever visited a farm, you may have tried drinking raw milk taken
straight from the cow. That's the way people used to drink milk traditionally,
and fresh, raw milk was once considered a very wholesome and healing food.
However, with the increase in the use of pasteurization and homogenization

processes, milk has become less like the traditional raw milk that our
ancestors used to drink. Furthermore, more and more people are unable to
drink the highly processed milk without problems.
(2) In pasteurization, milk is heated to a high temperature to kill potentially
harmful bacteria. Some scientists say that the protein structure of milk
changes in this process and many beneficial enzymes are destroyed. In
homogenization, the fat molecules in milk are broken down so that the cream
does not separate in the milk. The smaller molecules of fat may therefore he

Passage 11
In the recent past, a handful of colonial rulers allowed wealth to be
accumulated in the hands of a few. The great powers, in turn, enriched
themselves lavishly at the expense of the colonized peoples who were
subjected to poverty, hardship and deprivation. Because of these policies,
poverty remained the lot of the majority. But now that globalization has
become the frame of reference, there is no justification for an ever-smaller
minority to become richer while the majority poor become even poorer. A
situation in which one segment of the global population lives in opulence
while most of the rest live in dire poverty is morally reprehensible. We can --
and in fact we must -- work to reduce the number of those who live in
extreme poverty so that this will be a better world for all.

Passage 4
Volcanoes

(1) A volcano is an opening in Earth's crust. When a volcano erupts, hot gases
and melted rock from deep within Earth find their way up to the surface. This
material may flow slowly out of a fissure, or crack, in the ground, or it may
401
‫أكاديمية عايد للتدريب‬
‫ وإلا تتحمل المسئولية كاملة أمام الجهات المختصة‬0568955606 ‫هذه الملفات خاصة بأكاديمية عايد محمية بحقوق حفظ ونسخ فلا تحاول الحصول عليها بط ريقة غير شرعية إلا عن طريق‬

explode suddenly into the air Volcanic eruptions may be very destructive. But
they also create new landforms. There are more than 1.500 potentially active
volcanoes in the world today.
(2) During a volcanic eruption, hot melted rock called magma escapes from a
vent, or opening in Earth's surface, or crust. Magma released from a volcano
is known as lava. Fresh lava ranges from 1.300 to 2.200 o F 700 to 1.200 o C) in
temperature. Earth's crust is made up of huge, rocky pieces called plates. The
plates move slowly over the crust. Most volcanoes lie along the boundaries
between these plates.
(3) Some of the most violent eruptions take place where the edge of one
plate is forced beneath the edge of another. This forces magna to rise to the
surface. Hot gases in the magma make these volcanoes very explosive. Most
volcanoes of this type are found around the edges of the Pacific Ocean. This
huge circle of volcanoes is known as the Ring of Fire.
(4) Volcanoes also form in places where two plates slowly pull apart. Molten
rock rises between the plates as they move apart. It causes fissure eruptions,
in which lava flows out over the ground. This type of volcano is common
along the Mid-Atlantic Ride, a mountain chain under the Atlantic Ocean.
Volcanoes in the northern part of this ridge formed the island country of
Iceland. A small member of volcanoes are not located along the edges of
places. They form at "hot spots” in Earth’s crust. At a hot spot, molten rock
rises from deep below the crust. The volcanoes of Hawaii are the best
examples of hot-spot volcanoes.
(5) The word volcano comes from the name of Vulcan. The ancient romans
god of fire and metalworking. The Roman believed that volcano eruptions
resulted when Vulcan made thunderbolts and weapons for the gods. Other
cultures explained volcanoes as ordinates of anger from a god goddess. pele
was the name of the volcano goddess of the native Hawaiians. Volcanoes
have a long history of distinction. In ad 79, the eruption of Mount volcanoes
destroyed the Roman cities of Pompeii and Herculaneum.
(6) Two of the deadliest volcanic eruptions happened in 1815 and 1883 on
islands in what is now Indonesia. In 1815, Mount Tambora released so much
ash into the air that it blocked out large amount of sunlight. Temperatures
around the world dropped for months afterword, making 1816 a “year without

summer”. in 1853 the volcano Krakatoa exploded and collapsed triggering a


colossal sea wave known as a tsunami. tens of thousands of people were
killed by these.
(7) On May 8, 1902, Mount Pelee erupted on the Caribbean Island of
Martinique. Although very little lava flowed, an unstoppable black cloud of
hot gases and ash engulfed the city of Saint-Pierre, killing almost all of its
30.000 people. The birth of a volcano was witnessed between 1943 and 1952,
when a smoking hole in a Mexican farmer's cornfield erupted into a new
mountain called Paricutin that eventually stood 1,400 feet (425 meters) above
the level ground around it.
(8) Another notable event took place in 1963, when a new volcanic island
called Sartsey rose up from the Atlantic Ocean near Iceland. Within a few
years it built up to an area of 1 square mile (25 square kilometers), with a peak
more than 560 feet (170 meters) above sea level.
(9) The 1980 eruption of Mount Saint Helens, in the U.S. state of Washington,
was one of the biggest in North America. The 1991 eruption of Mount
Pinatubo, in the Philippines, was the largest of the 1900s. These eruptions
killed fewer people than earlier volcanoes, but they still destroyed much
property. Another volcano in Iceland erupted in 2010 and caused major
problems for travelers throughout the world. The volcano produced a huge
ash cloud that spread to the east. It caused many airports in Europe to close
because it was too dangerous for plans to fly through the ash.

Passage 5
Advertising
(1) Whenever people give information to the public about an event, a
product, or a service, they are using advertising. A piece of advertising is
called an advertisement, or ad. Ads appear almost everywhere. They are
found in newspapers and magazines. They appear on television, radio, and
the Internet. Ads are also posted as signs in all kinds of public places.
(2) The goal of most advertising is to make the public want to buy whatever is
being advertised. People also use advertising to make the public form
opinions about things. For example, an ad could try to make the public
believe that a company treats its workers well.
(3) When advertisers want many people to see or hear their ads, they pay the
media to have the ads published or broadcast. Newspapers and magazines
publish, or print ads between their articles. Television and radio network
broadcast, or play ads during their programs. Television and radio ads are
also called commercials. Web sites, buses, movie theaters, and many other
places also display ads in exchange for money.
(4) Signs were the fast form of advertising. Even thousands of years ago
people created hand-lettered signs to advertise their goods and services. The
invention of the printing press in the 1400s expanded this type of advertising.
Merchants could print dozens of the same posters and fliers to advertise what
they were selling. In the 1600s and 1700s newspapers appeared in Europe.
The Americas and Japan. Advertising then became even more widespread.

Passage 6
Recycling
(1) As minerals and other resources become scarcer, they also become more
expensive. It then pays to use them more than once. The recycling of
materials may also reduce the amount of energy used in manufacturing. In
turn, this helps to conserve fuels and reduce pollution.
(2) For example, producing aluminum alloys from scrap uses only 5% of the
energy that would be needed to make them from aluminum ores. In 2000,
Europe recycled 64.396 of the aluminum in waste. Germany and Finland do
really well, partly because they have a deposit scheme on cans: they recycle
between 95 and 96% of their aluminum waste.

(3) About 60% of the lead used in Britain is recycled. This seems quite good
until you realise that it also means that 40 of this poisonous substance enters
the environment.
(4) Manufacturing glass bottles uses about three times more energy than if
they were collected, sorted, cleaned and reused. Recycling the glass from
bottles does not save energy but does reduce the demand for sand used in
glass manicure. In 2007, 57% of glass containers were recycled in Britain.
(5) Polythene waste is now also recycled. The plastic is used to make items
such as car seat covers, sports shoes, hi-tech headphones and even bridges.
(6) Waste paper can be pulped and used again, mainly for making paper and
cardboard. Newspapers are de-inked and used again for newsprint. One ton
of waste paper is equal to perhaps 17 trees (Paper is made from wood-pp.) So
collecting waste paper may help to cut a country’s import bill for timber and
spare a few more hectares of this from the spread of commercial forestry.

Malware and Viruses
(1) Malware and viruses are programs that can attack digital devices such as
computers, tablets, phones and others. Virus is a small program created to
harm, or make trouble; by gaining access to your device and infecting, you
can copy your personal data or slow your device down. A virus works by
attaching itself to other files.
(2) By combining the words "malicious" (meaning "damaging") and "software"
we get the word "malware". Viruses are one type of malware. Malware is
made to stop your device from running property and sometimes to steal
information. Your device can be infected very quickly by malware. It could
crash, slow down or turn back on again. Your internet connection may also
down as the virus or worm searches for other devices to infect, or sends your
information back to person or people who created it.
(3) Virus is a type of malware that travels through normal programs. Once
your device has a virus it my pass easily and quickly to other files. A virus
might just slow down your device or it might be so bad that you lose your
applications and documents!
(4) Virus can travel from device to device, but is different from virus as they
don't need to attach themselves to other programs. Worms can copy
themselves hundreds of times, so they can very quickly harm your device and

Passage 9
Anatomy
(1) Anatomy is a field in the biological sciences concerned with the
identification and description of the body. structures of living things. Gross
anatomy involves the study of major body structures by dissection and
observation and in its narrowest sense is concerned only with the human
body. "Gross anatomy customarily refers to the study of those body
structures large enough to be examined without the help of magnifying
devices, while microscopic anatomy is concerned with the study of structural
units small enough to be seen only with a light microscope. Dissection is basic
to all anatomical research. The fest record of its use was made by the Greeks,
and Theophrastus called dissection anatomy," from ana termnein, meaning,
"to cut up". Comparative anatomy, the other major subdivision of the field,
compares S e body structures in different species of animals in order to
understand the adaptive changes they have undergone in the course of
evolution.
Grass Anatomy
(2) This ancient discipline reached its culmination between 1500 and 1850, by
which time its subject matter was firmly established. None of the world's
oldest civilizations dissected a human body, which most people regarded with
superstitions awe and associated with the spirit of the departed soul. Beliefs in
life after death and a disquieting certainty concerning the possibility of bodily
resurrection further inhibited systematic study. Nevertheless, knowledge of
the body was acquired by treating wounds, hiding in childbirth. and setting
broken limbs. The field remained speculative rather than descriptive, though,
until the achievements of the Alexandra medical school and its foremost
figure, Herophilus (flourished 300 BCE), who dissected human cadavers and
thus gave anatomy a considerable actual basis for the first time. Herophilus
made many important discoveries and was followed by his younger
contemporary Erasistratus, who is sometimes regarded as the founder of
physiology. In the 2nd century CE, Greek physician Galen assembled and
arranged all the discoveries of the Greek anatomists (scientists who study
anatomy), including with them his own concepts of physiology and his

discoveries in experimental medicine. The many books Galen wrote became


the unquestioned authority for anatomy and medicine in Europe because
they were the only ancient Greek anatomical texts that survived the Dark
Ages in The form of Arabic (and then Latin) translations.
(3) Owing to church prohibitions against dissection, European medicine in the
Middle Ages relied upon Galen's mixture of fact and fancy rather than on
direct observation for its anatomical knowledge, though some dissections
were authorized for teaching purposes. In the early 16th century, the artist
Leonardo da Vinci undertook his own dissections and his beautiful and
accurate anatomical drawings cleared the way for Flemish physician Andreas
Vesalius to "restore" the science of anatomy with his monumental De humani
corporis fabrica libri septem (1543; "The Seven Books on The Structure of the
Human Body"), which was the first comprehensive and illustrated textbook of
atomy. As a professor at the University of Padua Vesalnis encouraged
younger scientists to accept traditional anatomy only after verifying it
themselves. and this more critical and questioning attitude broke Galea's
authority and placed anatomy on a farm foundation of observed fact and
demonstration.
(4) From Vesalius's exact descriptions of the skeleton, muscles, blood vessels,
nervous system, and digestive tract. This successors in Padua progressed to
studies of the digestive glands and the urinary and reproductive systems.
Hieronymus Fabricius, Gabriello Fallophus and Bartolomeo Estachio were
among the most important itatin anatomists, and their detailed studies led to
fundamental progress in the related field of physiology. William Harvey
discovery of the circulation of the blood, for instance, was based partly on
Fabricius's detailed descriptions of the venous Valves.
(5) The new application of magnifying glasses and compound microscopes to
biological studies in the second half of the 17th century was the most
important factor in the subsequent development of anatomical research.
Primitive early microscopies enabled Marcello Malpighi to discover the
system of tiny capillaries connecting the arterial and venous networks, Robert
Hooke to first observe the small compartments in plants that he called "cells"
and Anrvonie van Leeuwenhoek to observe muscle fibres and spermatozoa.
Thenceforth attention gradually shifted from the identification and

understanding of bodily structures visible to the naked eye to those of


microscopic size.
(6) The use of the microscope in discovering minute, previously unknown
Features was pursued on a more systematic basis in the 19th century, but
progress tended to be slow until technical improvements in the compound
microscope itself, beginning in the 1830s with the gradual development of
achromatic lenses, greatly increased that instrument's resolving power. These
technical advances enabled Matthias Jakob Schleiden and Theodor Schwan to
recognize in 1838-39 that the cell is the fundamental until of organization all
living things. The need for thinner, more transparent tissue species for study
under the light microscope stated the development of improved methods of
dissection, notably machines called microtomes that can slice specimens into
extremely thin sections. In order to better distinguish the detail in these
sections. Synthetic dyes were used to stain tissues with different colors. This
sections and staining had become standard tools for microscopic anatomists
by the late 19th century. the field of cytology, which is the study of tissue
organization from the cellular level up. Both arose in the 191h century with the
data and techniques of microscopic anatomy as their bodies.

(7) In the 20th century anatomists tended to scrutinize tinier and tinier units of
structure as new technologies enabled them to discern details far beyond the
limits of resolution of light microscopes. These advances were made possible
by the electron microscope, which stimulated an enormous amount of
research on subcellular structures beginning in the 1950s and became the
prime tool of Anatomical research. About the same time, the use of X-ray
diffraction for studying the structures of many types of molecules present in
living things gave rise to the new subspecialty of molecular anatomy.

Passage 10
Sustainability and Sustainable Development
(1) The definition of sustainability is not nearly as simple as it might seem; the
same is true for the definition of Sustainable development. This is best
illustrated by the fact that there are over 200 different documented
definitions of sustainable development. However, the most common
definition, which was established by the Brundtland Commission in 1987, is
the following:
(2) Sustainable development is development that meets the needs of the
present without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their
own needs."
(3) This implies that we need to look after our planet, our Sources, and our
people to ensure that we can live in a stable manner and that we can give our
planet to our children and our grandchildren to live in true suitability.
(4) But what it sustainability? The definition of Suitability may be taken further.
It is widely accepted that to achieve true stability we must balance economic.
Environment and social factors in equal harmony.

Passage 11
Non-Western Economic Thought
(1) Western historians of economic thought, like ourselves have a tendency to
focus on Western writers. Whether This is justified or not is a matter or
opinion JA Schumpeter, who wrote a comprehensive, widely respected history
of economic thought in 1954, held that he could find non -Western early
economic writing with any analytic content and further that no piece of
reasoning on strictly economic topics has come down to us that can be called
"Scientific" within our meaning of the term "Schumpeter also pointed to what
he regarded as a curious gap in economic literature between the writings of
the Greeks and Aquinas, a period of nearly one thousand years during which
no economic writings of merit seemed to have been produced.
(2) Scholars since Schumpeter have questioned his conclusions and have
been to find so interesting early economic wines of merit. We will briefly
newly translated works of a seventh century BCE Chinese writer, Oman Zhong
(725-645 BC). For example, in order to give you a favor of his contributions

and, more broadly to suggest that analysis of economic activity is likely to


occur at various times and places. The majority of early Chinese wings on
economics fit Schumpeter's characterization they were essentially limited to
considerations of public administration within ethical networks, rather than
strictly scientific" studies. Oman Zhong's book Guan zi, however, stands out
as going far beyond the administrative mold. It includes a number of ideas
that central to economic thinking. Probably the most important of these is his
"light/heavy" theory. An anticipation of supply/demand theory. Others include
his anticipation of the quantity theory, his discussion of countercyclical fiscal
policy. and his appreciation for the workings of the market.
(3) Guan Zhong argued that when a good was abundant it became light and
its price would fail. When it was locked away it became heavy, and its price
would rise. There would be movements of goods into and out of markets
based on their lightness and heaviness, with a definite tendency toward one
price- equilibrium. Thus, the light heavy theory is a statement of the law of
supply and demand.

Passage 12
Passage A
(1) Wind power is an alternative energy source. This means that the power of
the wind can be used in place of other energy sources such as coal, oil, and
nuclear reactions. Wind can be used to produce electricity that heats homes
and lights streets and buildings.
(2) Wind power is harnessed by a machine called a wind turbine. Wind
turbines are all towers topped with blades. The blades are connected to a
vertical shaft, or rod. When wind causes the blades to spin, they tum the
shaft. The tuning shaft provides power to a machine called a generator, which
produces electricity. A group of wind turbines, called a wind farm, can be
used to provide electricity to a community. Small turbines provide power for
individual homes.
(3) Wind turbines used to be called winds. The earliest known windmills were
built more than 1,000 years ago. People used them to grind grin. The Dutch
used Windmills to pump water out of low-lying areas near the sea.

Passage B
(1) Wind power is cost-effective. Land-based utility-scale wind is one of the
lowest priced energy sources available today, costing 1-2 cents per kilowatt-
hour to the production tax credit. Because the electricity from wind farms is
sold at a fixed price over a long period of time (e.g. 20+ years) and its fuel is
free, wind energy mitigates the price uncertainty that fuel costs add to
traditional sources of energy.

(2) Wind creates jobs. The US wind sector employs more than 100.000 work ,
and wind turbine tech n is one of the fastest growing American jobs.
According to the Wind Vision Report wind has the potential to Scout more
than 600.000 job in manufacturing. installation, maintenance, and supporting
services by 2050.
(3) It's a clean fuel source. Wind energy doesn't pollute the air like power
plants that rely on combustion of fossil fuels, such as con or a s, which emit
particulate matter, nitrogen oxides, and sulfur dioxide -causing In health
problems and economic damages. Wind Turbines don't produce atmospheric
emissions that cause acid rain. smog, or greenhouse gases.

Passage 13
(1) Language is a way to communicate. We begin to learn language as infants
and become accustomed to our native language. language therefore
becomes a problem for immigrants, especially between the first and second
generations. This language barrier also results in the second generation
losing their identity.
(2) First generation immigrants in America suffer in lots of areas because of
language difficulties. Naturally, they want their children to speak English both
at home and at school in order to be more successful. This results in their
children losing their ethnic identity and even more. Ignoring their parents
because there is now a language between them.
(3) For example, my three children and they were all born in the States. The
eighteen-years- old daughter speaks both English and Korean very well. She
has no problems talking with her parents, but she does have trouble
understanding Korean jokes, and there are sometimes misunderstandings.
The second daughter is fourteen years old and she resists speaking Korean.
My aunt often gets upset with her because she is much Americanized and
they cannot understand each other Even when my ant punishes her, this
daughter does not understand what my aunt is talking about. I felt sympathy
for my aunt whenever my fourteen-year-old cousin said, "Mom, what is your
problem?
(4) The third child is a twelve-year-old son. He speaks English to his parents
and my aunt speaks Korean to him he does to the second canter. He also has
a problem communicating with his parents. My tis trying to encourage him to
learn both languages, but it is very bed for at because he speaks English all
day and fail to understand why he should learn Korean.
(5) Immigrants try to preserve their native language in their new country while
string to learn a new language. My aunt was her children to succeed in the
US, but she also wants to help them understand the Korean language in order
to understand the Korean heritage. The second generation often gets
confused about their Identity. My aunt's children, for example, see themselves

as being different from others in both places in the US they look Korean and
in Korea they act like Americans. My cousins told me that when they visited
Korea a few years ago, they felt different because they wore different clothes
and walked differently.
(6) Language is important and valuable for any reasons. Immigrants must
imagine a strong mutual understanding with the family and enable their
children to appreciate the heritage. Being at ease in using both the first and
second languages is important not only for attaining familial harmony, but
also in helping the second generation establish the identity

Passage 1
Packaging
(1) Packaging involves designing and producing the container or wrapper for
a product. Traditionally the primary function of the package was to hold and
protect the product. In recent times, however, numerous factors have made
packaging an important marketing tool as well. Increased competition and
clutter on retail store shelves means that packages must now perform many
sales tasks – from attracting attention, to describing the product, to making
the sale.
(2) Companies are realizing the power of good packaging to create
immediate consumer recognition of brand. For example, an average
supermarket stocks 45,000 items; the average Wal-Mart supercenter carries
142,000 items. The typical shopper passes by some 300 items per minute. And
more than 70 percent of all purchase decisions are made in stores. In this
highly competitive environment, the package may be the seller's last and best
chance to influence buyers. Thus, for many companies, the package itself has
become an important promotional medium.
(3) Poorly designed packages can cause headaches for consumers and lost
sale for the company. Think about all those hard-to-open packages, such as
DVD cases sealed with impossibly sticky labels. Packaging with finger-splitting
wire twist-tie, or sealed plastic clamshell containers that take the equivalent of
the fire department's Jaws of Life to open. Such packaging causes what
amazon.com calls "wrap rage" the frustration we feel when trying to free a
product from a nearly impenetrable package. "Amazon.com recently
launched a multi-year initiative to alleviate wrap rage. It's working with
companies such as Fisher-Price, Mattel, Microsoft, and others to create
"frustration-free packaging – smaller, easy to open recyclable packages that
use less packaging material and no frustrating plastic clamshells or wire ties.
These new packages not only reduce customer frustration, they also cut down
on packaging waste and energy usage, "It will take many years" says the
company. "But our vision is to offer our entire catalog of products in
frustration-free packaging.

(4) Innovative packaging can give a company an advantage over competitors


and boost sales. Sometimes even seemingly small packaging improvements
can make a big difference. For example. Heinz revolutionized the 170-year-
old condiments industry by inverting the good old ketchup bottle, letting
customers quickly squeeze out even the last bit of ketchup. At the same time.
It adopted a fridge-door-fit shape that not only slots into shelves more easily
but also have a cap that is simpler for children to open. In the four months
following the introduction of the new package. Sales jumped 12 percent.
What's more? The new package does double duty as a promotional tool says
a packaging analyst. "When consumers see the Heinz logo on the fridge door
every time, they open it. It's taking marketing inside homes."
(5) In recent years, product safety has also become a major packaging
concern. We have all learned to deal with hard-to-open "childproof"
packaging. And after the rash of product tampering scares during the 1980s.
most drag producers and food makers now put their products in tamper-
resistant packages. In making packaging decisions, the company also must
heed growing environmental concerns. Fortunately, many companies have
gone "green" by reducing their packaging and using environmentally
responsible packaging materials.
21. What was the main function of packaging traditionally?

Passage 2
Economics
(1) Economics is the study of how wealth is created and distributed. By wealth,
we mean anything of value, including the products produced and sold by
business. How wealth is distributed simply means who gets what.” Experts
often use economics to explain the choices we make and how these choices
change as we cope with the demands of everyday life. In simple terms,
individuals, businesses, governments and society must make decisions that
reflect what is important to each group at a particular time. For example,
suppose you want to take a weekend trip to some exotic vacation spot, and
you also want to begin an investment program Because of your financial
resources, though you cannot do both, so you must decide what is most
important Business firms, governments, and to some extent society face the
same types of decisions. Each group must deal with scarcity when making
important decisions. In this case, scarcity means "lack of resources money.
time natural resources, and so on - that are needed to satisfy a want or need.

(2) Today, experts often study economic problems from two different
perspectives: microeconomics and macroeconomics. Microeconomics is the
study of the decisions made by individuals and businesses. Microeconomics,
for example examines how the prices of homes affect the number of homes
individuals will buy On the other hand, macroeconomics is the study of the
national economy and the global economy. Macroeconomics examines the
economic effect of national income, unemployment, inflation taxes,
government spending interest rates. and similar factors on a nation and
society.

(D)It studies decisions made by individuals and businesses.
28. What is one important idea that the writer mentions about scarcity?
‫ما هي إحدى الأفكار المهمة التي ذكرها الكاتب عن الندرة؟‬
(A) lack of resources
(B) how wealth is distributed
(C) a result of microeconomics
(D) a choice we make in business only

Passage 3
Writing Genres
(1) There are four main types of academic writing and each of these writing
styles is used for a specific purpose.

423

‫ وإلا تتحمل المسئولية كاملة أمام الجهات المختصة‬0568955606 ‫هذه الملفات خاصة بأكاديمية عايد محمية بحقوق حفظ ونسخ فلا تحاول الحصول عليها بط ريقة غير شرعية إلا عن طريق‬

(2) Expository writing is one of the most common types of writing. When an
author writes in an expository style, all they are trying to do is to explain a
concept, imparting information from themselves to a wider audience.
Expository writing does not include the author’s opinion but focused on
accepted facts about a topic, including statistics or other evidence.
(3) Descriptive writing is often found in fiction, though it can make an
appearance in nonfiction as well memories, first hand, accounts of events, or
travel guides). When an author writes in a descriptive style, they are painting
a picture in words of a person, place or thing for their audience. The author
might employ a metaphor or other literary devices in order to describe the
author’s impressions. But the author is not trying to convince the audience of
anything or explain the scene.
(4) Persuasive writing is the main style of writing used in academic papers.
When the author writes in a persuasive style, they are trying to convince the
audience of a position or belief. Persuasive writing contains the author’s as
evidence of the correctness of their position. Any “argumentative” Essay
written in school should be in the persuasive style of writing.
(5) Narrative writing is used almost every longer. Piece of writing, whether
fiction or nonfictions. When an author writes in a narrative style, they are not
trying to import information, they are trying to construct and communicative
a story, complete with characters, conflict and settings.
29. What is the main idea of the passage? ‫ما هي الفكرة الرئيسية لهذه القطعه؟‬
(A) Academic writing uses different types of styles.
(B) Children learn about descriptive writing in elementary school.
(C) There are four kinds of writing that are used for different reasons.
(D) Persuasive writing is used when the writer wants to convince an audience.
30. What does Paragraph (2) say about expository writing?
‫) عن الكتابة التوضيحيه؟‬2( ‫ماذا يقول البرقراف‬
(A) It is the least common type of writing.
(B) It includes a writer's opinion about a subject.
(C) It has information about today's world events.

Passage 4
The Impact of Culture on Marketing Strategies
(1) In marketing, a seller must understand the ways that consumers in
different countries think about and use certain products before planning a
marketing program. There are often surprises. For example, the average
French man uses almost twice as many cosmetics and grooming devices as
his wife. The Germans and the French eat more packaged branded spaghetti
than Italians do. Some 49 percent of Chinese eat on the way to work. Most
American women let down their hair and take off their makeup at bedtime,
whereas 15 percent of Chinese women style their hair at bedtime and 11
percent put on makeup.
(2) Business norms and behavior also vary from country to country. For
example, American executives like to get right down to business and engage
in fast and tough face-to-face bargaining. However Japanese and other Asian
businesspeople often find this behavior offensive. They prefer to start with
polite conversation, and they rarely say no in face-to-face conversations. As
another example, South Americans like to sit or stand very close to each other
when they talk business - in fact, almost nose-to-nose. The American business
executive tends to keep backing away as the South American moves closer.
Both may end up being offended.
(3) By the same token, companies that understand cultural differences can
use them to their advantage when positioning products and preparing
campaigns internationally. Consider LG electronics, the $63 billion-dollar
South Korean electronics, telecommunications and appliance powerhouse. LG
now operates in more than 60 countries and captures more than 81 percent
of its sales from markets outside its home country. LG's global success rests
on understanding and catering to the unique characteristics of each local
market through in-country research, manufacturing and marketing.

Passage 5
Irish Potato Famine
(1) Under British rule, three quarters of Irish farmland was used to grow crops
that were exported. The potato was the main source of food for most of the
Irish people. In 1845, disaster struck. A blight or disease destroyed the potato
crop. Other crops, such as wheat and oats, were not affected. Yet British
landowners continued to ship these crops outside Ireland, leaving little for the
Irish except the blighted potatoes. The result was a terrible famine that the
Irish called the 'Great Hunger'. In four years, about one million Irish men,
427

women and children died of starvation or disease. Many more emigrated to


the United States and Canada. The Great Hunger left a legacy of Irish
bitterness toward the English.
(2) In the 1850s, some Irish militants organized the Fenian Brotherhood. Its
goal was to liberate Ireland from British rule by force. In the 1870s, moderate
Irish nationalists found a rousing leader in Charles Parnell. He rallied Irish
members of Parliament to press for home rule, or local self-government. The
debate dragged on for ages.
(3) The 'Irish question' disrupted English Politics. At times, political parties
were so deeply split over the Irish question that they could not take care of
other business. As prime minister, Gladstone pushed for reforms in Ireland, he
ended the use of Irish tax money to support the British and tried to ease the
hardship of Irish tenant farmers. New laws prevented landlords from charging
unfair rents and protected the rights of tenants to the land they worked.
(4) Finally, in 1914. Parliament passed a home rule law. But it delayed putting
the new law into effect when World War 1 broke out that year. The southern
counties of Ireland finally became independent in 1921.
40. What does Paragraph (1) say about the Great Hunger?
‫) عن الجوع الكبير؟‬1( ‫ماذا يقول البرقراف‬
(A) It helped improve relations between Ireland and Britain
(B) It made British landowners stop all crop exports outside of Ireland.
(C) It brought about a lot of death and made many Irish people leave their

nationalists.
41. Why does the writer use the word Yet in Paragraph (1)?
‫)؟‬1( ‫لماذا يستخدم الكاتب كلمة "بعد" في البرقراف‬
(A) To prove that the Irish only liked to eat potatoes most of the time
(B) To give more information about which crops were sent to Canada
(C) To show that crops, like wheat and oats, were also affected by disease
(D) To show that British landowners sold good crops while people were
hungry

Passage 6
Bacterial Disease
How do bacteria cause disease?
(1) Disease-causing agents are called pathogens. Although pathogens can
come from any taxonomic group. bacteria and viruses are among the most
common. All currently known prokaryotic pathogens are bacteria. This is why
the discussion here is restricted to pathogenic bacteria, and it excludes
archaea. However, in the future scientists may well discover that some
archaea are associated with disease.
(2) The French chemist Louis Pasteur was the first person to show
convincingly that bacteria cause disease. Pasteur helped to establish what has

429
‫أكاديمية عايد للتدريب‬
‫ وإلا تتحمل المسئولية كاملة أمام الجهات المختصة‬0568955606 ‫هذه الملفات خاصة بأكاديمية عايد محمية بحقوق حفظ ونسخ فلا تحاول الحصول عليها بط ريقة غير شرعية إلا عن طريق‬

become known as the germ theory of disease when he showed that bacteria
were responsible for a number of human and animal diseases.
Disease Mechanisms
(3) Bacteria produce disease in one of two general ways. Bacteria cause
disease by destroying living cells or by releasing chemicals that upset
homeostasis. Some bacteria destroy living cells and tissues of the infected
organism directly, while some cause tissue damage when they provoke a
response from the immune system. Other bacteria release toxins (poisons)
that interfere with the normal activity of the host.
Damaging Host Tissue
(4) One example of a pathogen that damages host tissue is the bacterium
that causes tuberculosis. This pathogen is inhaled into the lungs, where its
growth triggers an immune response that can destroy large areas of tissue.
The bacterium also may travel through blood vessels to other sites in the
body, causing similar damage.
Releasing Toxins
(5) Bacteria that produce toxins include the species that causes diphtheria,
and the species responsible for a deadly form of food poisoning known as
botulism. Diphtheria has largely been eliminated in developed countries by
vaccination, but outbreaks of botulism still claim many lives.
45. What happened because of Louis Pasteur's research about bacteria?
‫ماذا حدث بسبب بحث لويس باستير عن البكتيريا؟‬
(A) People learned how diseases can start.
(B) People learned how to stop all diseases.
(C) People learned that diseases are common.
(D) People learned that diseases can be made.
46. What do toxins made by one species of bacteria cause?
‫ما الذي تسببه السموم التي ينتجها نوع واحد من البكتيريا؟‬
(A) a new kind of lung disease
(B) a disease found in animals
(C) an ancient type of virus

Passage 8
California Strawberries
(1) Agricultural abundance is a pillar of the California dream. In 2016 the state
turned out more than $45 billion worth of meat, milk and crops. Long before
nutritionists agreed that fresh fruits and vegetables should be the center of
American diets, California farmers had planted much of their land in these
products, and today they produce half of the nation's fruits, vegetables and
nuts.
(2) But although fruits and vegetables are vaunted as healthy foods, their
impact as crops is quite different. On many California produce farms wages
are low, working conditions are poor and farmers use enormous quantities of
pesticides and precious water. This is the central contradiction of California
agriculture
(3) California's strawberry industry is the state's sixth most important
commodity in terms of the value of crops sold. Strawberries are attractive
reasonably nutritious and occasionally tasty fruits and can be grown and
eaten within California nearly year-round. But the industry's growth has relied
on heavy use of toxic chemicals and now growers face heightened restrictions
on some of their most favored chemicals: soil fumigants.
(4) Unfortunately, less toxic or non-chemical strategies that would allow
strawberries to be grown for a mass market, maintaining affordable prices,
are elusive and likely to remain so.
(5) Although strawberry production once was scattered throughout the state,
by the 1960s, it had concentrated in coastal zones to take advantage of sandy
soils and mild temperatures. Thereafter, the industry saw tremendous growth
432
‫أكاديمية عايد للتدريب‬
‫ وإلا تتحمل المسئولية كاملة أمام الجهات المختصة‬0568955606 ‫هذه الملفات خاصة بأكاديمية عايد محمية بحقوق حفظ ونسخ فلا تحاول الحصول عليها بط ريقة غير شرعية إلا عن طريق‬

in productivity. In Monterey and Santa Cruz counties alone, acreage more


than tripled and production increased tenfold from 1960 to 2014. Much of this
growth was enabled by advances in plant breeding and use of plastic tarps to
absorb heat, allowing growers to increase the length of strawberry seasons.
(6) But the main driver of growth has been the use of pre plant chemical
fumigants. Growers hire pest control companies to fumigate soils before
planting strawberries in order to kill soil-borne pests most importantly, plant
pathogens such as Verticillium dahliae and Macrophomina phaseolina
Without such treatment, these pathogens cause strawberry plants to wilt and
die.
(7) Now, however, the industry's fumigant of choice methyl bromide can no
longer be used in strawberry fruit production. In 1991 methyl bromide was
banned under the Montreal Protocol on Substances that used in nursery
production to ensure that starter plants are virus- and pathogen-free. One
potential replacement, methyl iodide, was approved for use in late 2010. But it
was withdrawn from the market in 2012, following an activist campaign and
lawsuit that accused California regulators of performing an inadequate review
of potential health risks to workers and the general public. Among other
things, the chemical is a known neurotoxin and carcinogen.
(9) Other fumigants are still allowed, but their use is increasingly restricted by
buffer zones and township quotas. Consequently, growers are contending
with heightened levels of plant disease, some from pathogens that had never
before been evident in California strawberry fields.
(10) Can California find a less toxic way to raise 90 percent of the nation's
fresh strawberries? Although the strawberry industry is investing significant
resources into non-chemical alternatives to manage soil-borne disease, the
obstacles are formidable. The entire production system, including reliance on
fumigants, is embedded into the cost of land.

(11) Fumigation has allowed growers to plant on the same blocks of land. year
after year, and not worry about soil disease. With fumigation available to
control.
(12) Together these innovations have allowed growers to keep prime
strawberry land in production every year for much of the year, yielding
433
‫أكاديمية عايد للتدريب‬
‫ وإلا تتحمل المسئولية كاملة أمام الجهات المختصة‬0568955606 ‫هذه الملفات خاصة بأكاديمية عايد محمية بحقوق حفظ ونسخ فلا تحاول الحصول عليها بط ريقة غير شرعية إلا عن طريق‬

exceptional amounts of fruit. High land prices reflect these expectations and
make it unprofitable to grow strawberries using less intensive methods. The
Pacific Ocean's natural summer air-conditioning is attractive to suburbanites
as well as strawberries, so coastal development is putting additional pressure
on the cost of strawberry land while at the same time increasing public
pressure to control use of fumigants.
(13) Informed and concerned consumers ingrained with California's deep
culture of environmentalism have turned to organic strawberries, which they
see as a more sustainable option. As conventional growers took note of this
vibrant market, organic strawberry production rose fivefold between 2000
and 2012, to reach about 3,300 acres planted in 2017, which represents 12
percent of all strawberry acreage.
(14) But although organic growers use non-chemical soil fumigation methods
or rotate strawberries with crops that have a mild disease-suppressing effect,
such as broccoli, few of them fundamentally alter the production system in
other ways.
(15) A small but dedicated set of growers have learned how to raise
strawberries for the long haul without fumigants. However, even they use
starter plants produced on fumigated soil, since no nurseries produce organic
plants. Crucially, for these growers strawberries are a minor crop in what are
otherwise highly diversified systems. And most of these producers are located
outside of prime strawberry growing regions, where land is cheaper. Their
approach therefore is not nearly replicable for growers producing for the
mass market.
(16) These exceptions tell us as much about the limits of California strawberry
production as does mainstream production. Consumers who want organic
strawberries must be willing to live with compromises, pay premium prices.
For others, the dream of affordable year-round strawberries grown without
toxic chemicals is already an impossible one.

Passage 9
Forensic Science
Forensic science is the application of science to answer questions related to
the law. Biologists as well as chemists and biochemists can be forensic
scientists. Forensic scientists provide scientific evidence for use in courts, and
their job involves examining trace material associated with crimes. Interest in
forensic science has increased in the last few years, possibly because of
popular television shows that feature forensic scientists on the job. Also, the
development of molecular techniques and the establishment of DNA
databases have updated the types of work that forensic scientists can do.
Their job activities are primarily related to crimes against people such as
murder and assault. Their work involves analyzing samples such as hair,
blood. and other body fluids and also processing DNA found in many
different environments and materials.

Passage 10 Hypnosis
(1) Those who study hypnosis agree that its power resides not in the
hypnotist but in the subject's openness to suggestion. To some extent, nearly
everyone is suggestible. When people standing upright with their eyes closed
are told repeatedly that they are swaying back and forth, most will indeed
sway a little. In fact, postural sway is one of the items on the Stanford
Hypnotic Susceptibility Scale that assesses a person's hypnotizability. During
the assessment, a hypnotist gives a brief hypnotic induction and then
presents a series of suggested experiences that range from easy (one's
outstretched arms will move together) to difficult (with eyes open one will see
a nonexistent person).
(2) Those who are highly hypnotizable - say, the 20 percent who can carry out
a suggestion not to smell or react to a bottle of ammonia held under the
nose - are still likely to be the most hypnotizable 25 years later. These
hypnotically susceptible people, frequently become deeply absorbed in
imaginative activities. Typically, they have rich fantasy lives and easily become
absorbed in the imaginary events of a novel or movie. Many researchers
therefore refer to hypnotic.
56. What can we understand about hypnosis? ‫ماذا يمكن أن نفهم عن التنويم‬

Passage 11
Passage A: Aristocratic leadership:
(1) This is also sometimes termed authoritarian leadership. It refers to a
leadership or management style which assumes that information and decision
making are best kept at the top of the organization. It is also characterized
by:
- One-way communication (down ward).
- Minimal delegation or decentralization.
- Close supervision of employees.
(2) Martha Stewart, An American enter renew, build up a vast global business
venture, including publishing, television broad casting and online commerce,
despite, or perhaps of her reputation as an autocratic leader, unlike this style,
the leader determines objectives, allocate tasks and expects obedience from
subordinates. In these circumstances employees become very dependent
upon the leader as they do not have the necessary information (or
confidence) to act on their own initiative.
(3) Organization managed in an authoritarian style can face difficulties.
People avoid making decisions so that matters to be decided are either
passed up for the decisions to be made at a higher level, or decision are
made by committees as it is more difficult to dismiss all the members of a
committee for jointly making a wrong decision senior management tends to
be overworked and stud turnover tends to be high. This style of leadership
becomes difficult to operate successfully as an organization grows.
(4) As with all the behavior leadership classifications the term autocratic
manager covers a spectrum styles. Extreme autocratic management with
result in subordinated having no freedom of action. More evident autocratic
leadership will allow for possibility of some discussion or persuasion. This
implies that limited two-way communication may occur.
Passage A: Democratic leadership
(1) Democratic leadership (sometimes called participative leadership entails
operating a business according to decisions agreed by the majority decision
may be agreed formally through a voting system but are more likely to the
result of informal discussions. Typically, democratic leadership encourages
some of the following.
437
‫أكاديمية عايد للتدريب‬

Ship encourages some of the following:


- The leader delegates a great deal and encourages decentralization.
- The leader and subordinator discuss issues and employee participation
actively encouraged.
- The leader acts upon advice, and explains the reasons for decisions.
- Subordinates have greater control over their own working lives.
(2) The successful operation of this style requires excellent communication
skills on the part of the leader and the ability to generate effective two-way
communications. A considerable amount of management time may be spent
on communication in one form or another. This approach, helps to develop
the skills of subordinates and generally results in a more satisfied work form.

58. What can we understand from passages A and B about leadership?


‫ما الذي يمكن أن نفهمه من القطعتين "أ" و "ب" عن القيادة؟‬
(A) It results in a satisfied workforce.
(B) It requires a person to influence others to work.
(C) It becomes more difficult as an organization grows.
(D) It requires employees to be dependent on their leader.
59. According to passages A and B, what type of communication can take
place in both leadership styles?
‫ ما نوع الاتصال الذي يمكن أن يحدث في كلا الأسلوبين‬، "‫وف ًقا للقطعتين "أ" و "ب‬

(A) downward
(B) limited
(C) two-way
(D) informal

‫ماذا يمكننا أن نفهم من القطعتين "أ" و "ب" عن أساليب القيادة؟‬
(A) They only include downward communication
(B) They influence how decisions are made.
(C) The leader delegates a great deal.
(D) Workers depend on their leaders.

Passage 1
Pony (gold) express
The Pony Express was a system that delivered mail on horseback between
Missouri and California. The service lasted for only about a year and a half in
the early 1860s. Nevertheless, the Pony Express is well remembered in stories
about the American West.
Beginning in the 1840s many people from the eastern United States began to
move to the west. The discovery of gold in California in 1848 and in Colorado
and Nevada in 1859 brought thousands of explorers in search of riches. Other
people came to settle the land or to start a new life. By 1860 some 40,000
members of the religious group known as Mormons had settled in what is
now Utah. The population of Oregon also greatly increased. The new settlers
often came into conflict with the Native Americans who already lived on the
land. More settlers continued to arrive, however.
Mail from the East took a long time to reach these people. In 1851 the United
States government arranged to send mail to California and Oregon by sea.
However, it took about a month for a letter to travel from New York to
California. Then a stagecoach service was begun, but this took 24 days. The
people in the West demanded faster mail service.
The idea of using fast horses or ponies to carry mail may have come from F.X.
Aubrey, who hauled goods down the Santa Fe Trail in freight wagons. The
Santa Fe Trail was an important commercial route during the mid-19th
century. On his trips from Missouri to Santa Fe, New Mexico, Aubrey left
horses along the trail with traders and others. On his return by horseback, he
changed a tired horse for a fresh one.

Passage 2 Tea
Tea has a Chinese name given to a tree or shrub, its leaves, and the drink
made from the leaves, and its evergreen plant. It is attributed to the Camellia
sinensis plant, and its original home is eastern Asia. In its homeland it grows
to a height of 9 m, but on farms it prunes small bushes 90-150 cm tall. Its
leaves are lanceolate, dark green, and the flowers are fragrant, white,
yellowish. Tea was mentioned in Chinese works in the third century as a
substitute for strong wines, and was cultivated in the eighth century on a
commercial scale. The Dutch East India Company imported it to Europe, c.
1600, and used it in England (c. 1660). The British East India Company
monopolized its supply to Britain until 1834. It arrived in the American
colonies in 1680 and was the beverage of choice until it was replaced by
coffee. And tea is the most consumed beverage after water, and the most
important tea-producing countries are: India, China, Ceylon, Indonesia, Japan,
Formosa. The main importing countries Britain, the United States of America.
Australia, Russia, Canada, Netherlands. Its cultivation requires light fertile soil,
hot weather, humid air, and abundant rain. Small bushes grown from seeds
are suitable for harvesting after about three years, and these shrubs may
continue to produce for 50 years. The leaves are picked by hand and they are
young and the best are the thin leaves near the top. Leaves are left to wither,
then twisted and heated. In green tea, the leaves are heated as soon as they
are cut. In black (red) tea, the leaves are first fermented for about 24 hours. In
black (red) dragon tea, which is a type of tea that the people of China drink,
the leaves are partially fermented, which is Medium in flavor and colour. Tea
is classified according to the paper size, starting from the smallest. The flavor
of tea is caused by volatile oil, its stimulant property is caused by caffeine, and

its astringent property is caused by tannin, which decreases in black (red) tea
as a result of fermentation. Sometimes jasmine flower or other fragrant plants
are added to some types of tea to sweeten it.

Passage 3
Vitamin D
Vitamin D can be synthesized by the skin when exposed to UVB radiation.
Therefore, inhabitants of northern Antarctica with a short exposure to sunlight
are at considerable risk of experiencing vitamin D deficiency.
Vitamin D (VD) deficiency is a health condition that affects an important
proportion of the worldwide population. VD deficiency can lead to bone
mineralization defects such as rickets in children and osteomalacia in adults.
Also, studies in the general population have shown an association of VD
deficiency with increased bone fracture risk and other health problems.

4) Why do the inhabitants of northern Antarctica experience vitamin D


deficiency?
a. not enough sunlight
Passage 4
Diabetes
1) Diabetes is a chronic (long-lasting) health condition that affects how your body
turns food into energy.
2) Your body breaks down most of the food you eat into sugar (glucose) and
releases it into your bloodstream. When your blood sugar goes up, it signals
your pancreas to release insulin. Insulin acts like a key to let the blood sugar into
your body’s cells for use as energy.
3) With diabetes, your body doesn’t make enough insulin or can’t use it as well as it
should. When there isn’t enough insulin or cells stop responding to insulin, too
much blood sugar stays in your bloodstream. Over time, that can cause serious
health problems, such as heart disease, vision loss, and kidney disease.
For developing countries, urban and rural populations were considered
separately Prevalence of diabetes in adults worldwide was estimated to be

4.0% in 1995 and to rise to 5.4% by the year 2025. It is higher in developed
than in developing countries. The number of adults with diabetes in the
world will rise from 135 million in 1995 to 300 million in the year 2025.
The sugar industry paid scientists in the 1960s to play down the link between
sugar and heart disease and promote saturated fat as the culprit instead, newly
released historical documents show.
The internal sugar industry documents, recently discovered by a researcher at
the University of California, San Francisco, and published Monday in JAMA
Internal Medicine, suggest that five decades of research into the role of
nutrition and heart disease, including many of today’s dietary
recommendations, may have been largely shaped by the sugar industry.

Passage 5
Parkinson
Parkinson's disease is a progressive disorder that affects the nervous system
and the parts of the body controlled by the nerves. Symptoms start slowly.
The first symptom may be a barely noticeable tremor in just one hand.
Tremors are common, but the disorder may also cause stiffness or slowing of
movement.
In the early stages of Parkinson's disease, your face may show little or no
expression. Your arms may not swing when you walk. Your speech may
become soft or slurred. Parkinson's disease symptoms worsen as your
condition progresses over time. Although Parkinson's disease can't be cured,
medications might significantly improve your symptoms. Occasionally, your
health care provider may suggest surgery to regulate certain regions of your
brain and improve your symptoms.
In Parkinson's disease, certain nerve cells (neurons) in the brain gradually
break down or die. Many of the symptoms are due to a loss of neurons that
produce a chemical messenger in your brain called dopamine. When
dopamine levels decrease, it causes atypical brain activity, leading to impaired
movement and other symptoms of Parkinson's disease.

Passage 8 (‫)صناعة الورق والبردي‬


1) The paper we use today is made by machine. Trees are cut up and
processed into a mixture called wood pulp. The pulp, containing tiny cellulose
fibers, is pressed and rolled out to form sheets of paper.
2) The first manmade writing material was not paper. About 4,000 years ago,
the ancient Egyptians took the fibrous stems of the papyrus plant, flattened
them, laid them crosswise and pressed them down to stick them together.
When dried, this made a piece of papyrus that could be written on.
3) Paper was first made in China around the year 105 CE by a man called
Ts'ailun. He found a way to make paper from the stringy inner bark of the
mulberry tree. The bark was pounded in water to separate the fibers. This
mixture was then poured into a bamboo tray to let the water drain out. After
that, the soft mat of paper was moved onto a smooth, flat surface to dry.
Later, someone discovered that the paper could be improved by brushing it
with starch to make it stronger.
4) Chinese traders travelled around Asia as far as Samarkand. There, they met
with Arab merchants who learned the secret of making paper and took it to
Spain. Afterwards, the art of papermaking spread throughout the rest of
Europe.
5) Since then, many kinds of machines have been invented and improved
methods discovered for making paper. One of the most important, for
example, was a machine developed in France in 1798. This machine could
make a continuous sheet or web of paper. Before, paper could only be
produced in separate sheets.
. According to Paragraph 2), what did the early Egyptians use to make their
writing material?
A mulberry bark.
B wood pulp.
C bamboo.
D papyrus.

Passage 10
Automation
(1) Knowing how and where robots and machines could impact the global
economy will help financial executives in a competitive edge in their industries
but predicting which countries are likely to be impacted most by workforce
automation and when isn't as simple as comparing industries across the globe.
(2) A recent McKinsey Global Institute report. A Future That Works: Automation,
Employment, and Productivity, Analyzed the automation potential of 46
countries, representing 80% of the global workforce. Several factors are
considered, including the percentage of work activities that could be
automated using current technology, the number of full-time employees that
could be affected and wages.
(3) The types of activities that have a high potential for automation are physical
tasks in highly structured and predictable environments, data processing and
data collection. Those that have a considerably lower potential for automation

446
‫أكاديمية عايد للتدريب‬
‫ وإلا تتحمل المسئولية كاملة أمام الجهات المختصة‬0568955606 ‫هذه الملفات خاصة بأكاديمية عايد محمية بحقوق حفظ ونسخ فلا تحاول الحصول عليها بط ريقة غير شرعية إلا عن طريق‬

are unpredictable physical work, interactions with others, applying expertise,


and managing others, which is the least susceptible to automation.
(4) Vast differences are expected in how automation will play out across the
globe, as technical, economic, and social factors will determine the pace and
extent of it. But it's hard to say how quickly automation will become reality,
according to the report.
(5) Take manufacturing, for example. One country may save a larger
concentration of work hours in jobs that have higher automation potential,
such as production and administrative support. And another country may have
a higher proportion of work hours in jobs that are less likely to be automated,
such as management and engineering.
. What idea do the words "susceptible to automation" repeat?
(A) workforce automation
(B) robots and machines
(C) automation potential

Passage 11
Photosynthesis

(1) All living organisms need food. They need it as a source of raw materials to
build new cells and tissues as they grow. They also need food as a source of
energy. Food is a kind of 'fuel' that drives essential living processes and brings
about chemical changes. Animals take in food, digest it and use the digested
products to build their tissues or to produce energy.

(2) Plants also need energy and raw materials but, apart from a few insect
eating species, plants do not appear to take in food. The most likely source of
their raw materials would appear to be the soil. However, experiments show
that the weight gained by a growing plant is far greater than the weight lost
by the soil it is growing in. So there must be additional sources of raw
materials.

(3) Jean-Baptiste van Helmont was a Dutch scientist working in the 17th
century. At that time very little was known about the process of
photosynthesis. He carried out an experiment using a willow shoot. He
planted the shoot in a container with 90.8 kg of dry soil and placed a metal
grill over the soil to prevent any accidental gain or loss of mass. He left the
shoot for 5 years in an open yard, providing it with only rainwater and
distilled water for growth. After 5 years he reweighed the tree and the soil

448
‫أكاديمية عايد للتدريب‬
‫ وإلا تتحمل المسئولية كاملة أمام الجهات المختصة‬0568955606 ‫هذه الملفات خاصة بأكاديمية عايد محمية بحقوق حفظ ونسخ فلا تحاول الحصول عليها بط ريقة غير شرعية إلا عن طريق‬

and came to the conclusion that the increase in mass of the tree (74.7 kg) was
due entirely to the water it had received. However, he was unaware that
plants also take in mineral salts and carbon dioxide, or that they use light as a
source of energy.

. How is the author's view of "increase in mass" in trees different from the
Dutch scientist, Helmont's view?
(A) It is due entirely to the water they receive.
(B) It is due to the water, air, and soil they receive.
(C) It is due to the water, minerals, carbon dionxide, and sun light.
(D) It is due to a healthy soil, enough water, enough minerals and air.
. What word other than food does the writer use to talk about the need of all
living things?
(A) cell
(B) fuel
(C) material
(D) process
. What can we understand from the passage about the source of food
hypothesis?
(A) Food comes from only carbohydrates and carbon.
(B) Food comes from three different sources.
(C) Food comes from more than four sources.
(D) Food comes from nitrogen and sulfur.

. What can we understand from Paragraph (3) about Helmont's experiment?


(A) It failed because it used dry soil.
(B) It succeeded because it used only rainwater for 5 years.
(C) It failed because it did not pay attention to all things plants need.
(D) It failed because it happened a long time ago before photosynthesis was
even known.
Passage 12

resemble rocks. All the colors of the rainbow can be found in fish. Some fish are
very brightly colored while others can be very dull.
2) Fish can live in almost any conditions of water. They can live in the freezing waters
of Antarctica, hot jungle streams, lakes and fast flowing mountain rivers. Nearly all
fish get their oxygen from water. Although we cannot see it, water does contain
oxygen. To get this oxygen, the fish forces water through its gills. The gills absorb
oxygen and release carbon dioxide into the water which then passes out through
the gills.
3) Scientists have found over 21,000 different kinds of fish. They continue to find
more species each year. Scientists who study fish are called ichthyologists. Fish are
truly amazing animals to study and observe.
. What is the main idea of the passage?
a) the types of fish
b) the colors of fish
c) fish are fascinating animals
d) how fish live and play in water
. The word resemble in Paragraph 1) is closest in meaning to...............
E. differ from
F. look like
G. live in
H. move
. The word it in Paragraph 2) refers to ……
a) fish
b) water
c) a river
d) oxygen

Passage 1
The fire
(1) Over the roar of the fire, Mike heard Ben shout, "Hurry! The fire is almost on
us!" Mike's arms were sore and tired, but he swung his axe even faster. He
didn't even stop to wipe the tears from his stinging eyes. The greedy fire kept
coming. The more the fire destroyed, the more it wanted. Mike worked
shoulder to shoulder with the other smoke jumpers to build a firebreak. His
only thought was to stop the flaming monster that was raging through the
forest.
(2) At last the smoke jumpers finished the firebreak. If the fire were powerful
enough, it would jump over the firebreak that they had worked so hard to
make. Then they would have to start all over again. Mike stood motionless, his
face black with ash, his shirt wet with sweat. He was too exhausted to move
because he had given all of himself to fighting the fire. He turned his head and
noticed Ben watching him.
(3) Suddenly all that Ben had taught Mike about proving his bravery was clear.
A man was not brave if he did something just to prove his courage. He was
brave only when he forgot about himself. Today Mike had showed that he
cared very much about the others with whom he was working.
21. According to Paragraph (2), Mike was too exhausted to move because
……..
(A) he had sweat all over him.
(B) he was covered with back ash.

Giant Panda
(1) An American-born giant panda will soon be travelling to China. The
Chinese government has an agreement with foreign zoos to lend giant
pandas out only for scientific study. After a few years, they, and any cubs
they may produce, must all be returned to China. Mei Lan, a three-year-
old female, is being prepared for her trip to China, where her parents were
born. A special FedEx flight from the U.S. is being arranged for her.
(2) Chinese zookeepers are getting ready for her arrival by planning a special
diet, and even language lessons for her. They are advertising for a tutor to
teach Mei Lan Chinese. The caretakers at her new home, the Chengdu
Panda Research Center in Sichuan, want to help her adapt quickly and feel
comfortable in her new environment. Mei Lan has lived at a zoo in the city
of Atlanta, Georgia, since her birth, and she is unfamiliar with Chinese. The
teacher must have a bachelor's degree or higher and be fluent in both
English and Chinese.
24. According to Paragraph (2), why do the Chinese zookeepers want Mei Lan
to learn Chinese?

Passage 3
Stars
(1) If we look at the night sky carefully, we will see that the stars are of many
different colors. Some are red, others are yellow and some are blue. This is
also shown when we take color photographs of the night sky. You can take
such a photograph with an ordinary camera as long as it is kept steady. A
thirty second exposure is sufficient.
(2) Astronomers have been able to classify stars according to color. They have
found that blue stars are the largest and red stars the smallest. However,
there are a few stars which cannot be classified in this way. These are the
superstars. For example, Ryiejol is a blue superstar as big as 40.000 suns and
Beetlejuice is a superstar with a size equal to 17.000 suns.
(3) Suppose an astronomer observes two stars, one brighter than the other. If
neither of them is a superstar. he will know immediately that the brighter star
is closer. Astronomers have instruments like light meters which can measure
the brightness of a star quite accurately. It is possible to measure a star's
distance from the earth it astronomers know the color, brightness and
whether or not it is a superstar.
26. The pronoun it in Paragraph (1) refers to the ……………………..
(A) photograph
(B) exposure
(C) camera
(D) star
27. The word brighter in Paragraph (3) is closest in meaning to ……………..

Passage 4
The Cold War
(1) Starting with major scientific breakthroughs during the 1930's, countries
have developed weapons that are based on nuclear energy. The use of
nuclear weapons reached its height with the outbreak of World War II and the
Cold War. Two of the world's major superpowers, the USA and Soviet Union,
threatened each other with the use of nuclear weapons, which was referred to
as the Cold War.
(2) Although relations between the Soviet Union and the United States had
been strained in the years before World War II, the U.S.-Soviet alliance of
1941–1945 was marked by a great degree of cooperation and was essential to
securing the defeat of Nazi Germany. As late as 1939, it seemed highly
improbable that the United States and the Soviet Union would forge an
alliance. U.S.-Soviet relations had soured significantly following Stalin’s
decision to sign a non-aggression pact with Nazi Germany in August of
1939. In spite of intense pressure to sever relations with the Soviet Union,
Roosevelt never lost sight of the fact that Nazi Germany, not the Soviet
Union, posed the greatest threat to world peace. In order to defeat that
threat, Roosevelt confided that he “would hold hands with the devil” if
necessary.
Finally, two devastating atomic bomb attacks against Japan by the United
States, coupled with the Soviets’ decision to break their neutrality pact with
Japan by invading Manchuria, finally led to the end of the war in the Pacific.
Soon after the war, the alliance between the United States and the Soviet
Union began to unravel as the two nations faced complex post- war decisions
(3) At various conferences, the most important of which were at Yalta and
Potsdam, the three powers split Germany and its capital Berlin in two, with
the eastern portion controlled by the Soviet Union and the western portion
controlled jointly by the United States, the United Kingdom, and France.
Additionally, the Soviet Union was given influence over the governments of
several Eastern European states, where they promptly set up loyal,
communist puppet regimes.
(4) The United States and the West feared the creation of this Eastern Bloc, as
Western journalists and government termed it, and the further spread of

communism and/or totalitarian states in the rest of the world. U.S. foreign
policy became one of containment - essentially, stopping the spread of
communism wherever it could. This was in direct opposition to the Soviet
Union's policy of fostering the spread of communism, especially in its Asian
neighbors. The Americans then feared that the USSR/ Communist influence
that already spread over Eastern Europe, would influence the democracies of
western Europe.
29. In which year did US-Soviet relations sour significantly?
(A) 1939
(B) 1941
(C) 1945
(D) 1962
30. At which conferences did the three powers split Germany?

Passage 5
Demand in Economics
The meaning of demand
(1) Demand refers to both the willingness and the ability of customers to pay
a given price to buy a product or service. The amount of a product or service
demanded at each price level is called the quantity demanded.
(2) In general, the quantity demanded falls as price rises, while the quantity
demanded rises at lower prices. Therefore, there is an inverse relationship
between the price of a product or service and the demand. This rule is known
as the law of demand.
32. The word income in Paragraph (3) is closest in meaning to ………
(A) interest
(B) values

Passage 7
What is a Network?
(1) A network is nothing more than two or more computers connected by a
cable (or in some cases, by a wireless connection) so that they can exchange
information.
458
‫أكاديمية عايد للتدريب‬
‫ وإلا تتحمل المسئولية كاملة أمام الجهات المختصة‬0568955606 ‫هذه الملفات خاصة بأكاديمية عايد محمية بحقوق حفظ ونسخ فلا تحاول الحصول عليها بط ريقة غير شرعية إلا عن طريق‬

(2) Of course, computers can exchange information in other ways besides


networks. Most of us have used what computer nerds call the sneakernet.
That' s where you copy a file to a diskette and then walk the disk over to
someone else's computer. (The term sneakernet is typical of computer nerds'
feeble attempts at humor, and why not? As a way to transfer information,
sneaker- net was pretty feeble).
(3) The whole problem with the sneakernet is that it’s slow— plus, it wears a
trail in your carpet. One day, some penny-pinching computer geeks
discovered that connecting computers together with cables was actually
cheaper than replacing the carpet every six months. Thus the modern
computer network was born.
(4) You can create a computer network by booking all the computers in your
office together with cables and installing a special network interface card (an
electronic circuit card that goes inside your computer — ouch!) in each
computer so you have a place to plug in the cable. Then you set up your
computer s operating-system software to make the network work, and —
voilà — you have a working network. That's all there is to it.
(5) If you don't want to mess with cables, you can create a wireless network
instead. In a wireless network, each computer is equipped with a special
wireless network adapter that has little rabbit-ear antennas. Thus, the
computers can communicate with each other without the need for cables.
(6) Computer networking has its own strange vocabulary. Fortunately, you
don't have to know every esoteric networking term. Here are a few basic
buzzwords to get you by:
)7(Networks are often called LANs. LAN is an acronym that stands for local
area network. It's the first TLA, or three-letter acronym, that you see in this
book. You don’t really need to remember it or any of the many TLAs that
follow. In fact, the only three-letter acronym you need to remember is TLA.
(8) You may guess that a four-letter acronym is called an FLA. Wrong! A four-
letter acronym is called an ETLA, which stands for extended three-letter
acronym. (After all, it just wouldn't be right if the acronym for four-letter
acronym had only three letters.)

(9) Every computer connected to the network is said to be on the network.


The technical term (which you can forget) for a computer that's on the
network is a node.
(10) When a computer is turned on and can access the network. When a
computer can’t access the network, it’s offline. A computer can be offline for
several reasons. The computer can be turned off, the user may have disabled
the network connection, the computer may be broken, the cable that
connects it to the network can be unplugged, or a wad of gum can be
jammed into the disk drive.
(11) When a computer is turned on working properly, it's said to be up. When
a computer is turned off, broken, or being serviced, it's said to be down.
Turning off a computer is sometimes called taking it down. Turning it back on
is sometimes called bringing it up.
(12) Don't confuse local-area networks with the Internet. The Internet is a huge
amalgamation of computer networks strewn about the entire planet.
Networking the computers in your home or office so they can share
information with one another and connecting your computer to the worldwide
Internet are two entirely separate things.
36. What is a three-letter acronym called?
(A) ETLA
(B) TLA
(C) LAN
(D) FTA
37. What is a four-letter acronym called?
(A) AWOL
(B) LAN
(C) FLA
(D) ETLA
38. What is a "node"?
(A) a computer that is offline
(B) a computer that is broken
(c) a computer on the network
(D) a computer Working correctly

Passage 8
Probability and Randomness
)1(Randomness and uncertainty exist in our daily lives as well as in every
discipline in science, engineering, and technology. Probability theory is a
mathematical framework that allows us to describe and analyze random
phenomena in the world around us. By random phenomena, we mean events
or experiments whose outcomes we can't predict with certainty.

(2) Let's consider a couple of specific applications of probability in order to


get some intuition. First, let's think more carefully about what we mean by the
term’s "randomness" and "probability" in the context of one of the simplest
possible random experiments: flipping a fair coin.
(3) One way of thinking about "randomness" is that it's a way of expressing
what we don't know. Perhaps if we knew more about the force, I flipped the
coin with, the initial orientation of the coin, the impact point between my
finger and the coin, the turbulence in the air, the surface smoothness of the
table the coin lands on, the material characteristics of the coin and the table,
and so on, we would be able to definitively say whether the coin would come
up heads or tails. However, in the absence of all that information, we cannot
predict the outcome of the coin flip. When we say that something is random,
we are saying that our knowledge about the outcome is limited, so we can't
be certain what will happen.
(4) Since the coin is fair, if we don't know anything about how it was flipped,
the probability that it will come up heads is 50%, or 12. What exactly do we
mean by this? There are two common interpretations of the word
"probability." One is in terms of relative frequency. In other words, if we flip
the coin a very large number of times, it will come up heads about 12 of the
time. As the number of coin flips increases, the proportion that come up
heads will tend to get closer and closer to 12. In fact, this intuitive
understanding of probability is a special case of the law of large numbers,
which we will state and prove formally in later chapters of the book.
(5) A second interpretation of probability is that it is a quantification of our
degree of subjective personal belief that something will happen. To get a
sense of what we mean by this, it may be helpful to consider a second

461

example: predicting the weather. When we think about the chances that it will
rain today, we consider things like whether there are clouds in the sky and the
humidity. However, the beliefs that we form based on these factors may vary
from person to person - different people may make different estimates of the
probability that it will rain. Often these two interpretations of probability
coincide - for instance, we may base our personal beliefs about the chance
that it will rain on an assessment of the relative frequency of rain on days with
conditions like today.
(6) The beauty of probability theory is that it is applicable regardless of the
interpretation of probability that we use (i.e., in terms of long-run frequency
or degree of belief). Probability theory provides a solid framework to study
random phenomena. It starts by assuming axioms of probability, and then
building the entire theory using mathematical arguments.
39. What is one important idea related to "randomness" that the writer
mentions in Paragraph (3)?
(A) interpretation
(C) probability
(C) doubt
(D) math
40. What is one important idea related to probability that the writer mentions
in Paragraph (4)?
(A) interpretation
(B) experiment
(C) knowledge
(D) result

Passage 1 The fire
(1) Over the roar of the fire, Mike heard Ben shout, "Hurry! The fire is almost on
us!" Mike's arms were sore and tired, but he swung his axe even faster. He
didn't even stop to wipe the tears from his stinging eyes. The greedy fire kept
coming. The more the fire destroyed, the more it wanted. Mike worked
shoulder to shoulder with the other smokejumpers to build a firebreak. His only
thought was to stop the flaming monster that was raging through the forest.
(2) At last, the smoke jumpers finished the firebreak. If the fire were powerful
enough, it would jump over the firebreak that they had worked so hard to
make. Then they would have to start all over again. Mike stood motionless, his
face black with ash, his shirt wet with sweat. He was too exhausted to move
because he had given all of himself to fighting the fire. He turned his head and
noticed Ben watching him.
(3) Suddenly all that Ben had taught Mike about proving his bravery was clear.
A man was not brave if he did something just to prove his courage. He was
brave only when he forgot about himself. Today Mike had showed that he
cared very much about the others with whom he was working.
21) According to Paragraph (2), Mike was too exhausted to move because
……..
a) He had sweat all over him.
b) He was covered with back ash.
c) Ben did not give him much help.
d) He had given so much to fight the fire.
22) According to Paragraph (3), Ben taught Mike that being brave involves
……
a) working with proper tools
b) avoiding fire hazards

Passage 2 Giant Panda


(2) An American-born giant panda will soon be traveling to China. The
Chinese government has an agreement with foreign zoos to lend giant
pandas out only for scientific study. After a few years, they, and any cubs
they may produce, must all be returned to China. Mei Lan, a three-year-
old female, is being prepared for her trip to China, where her parents were
born. A special FedEx flight from the U.S. is being arranged for her.
(3) Chinese zookeepers are getting ready for her arrival by planning a special
diet, and even language lessons for her. They are advertising for a tutor to
teach Mei Lan Chinese. The caretakers at her new home, the Chengdu
Panda Research Center in Sichuan, want to help her adapt quickly and feel
comfortable in her new environment. Mei Lan has lived at a zoo in the city
of Atlanta, Georgia, since her birth, and she is unfamiliar with Chinese. The
teacher must have a bachelor's degree or higher and be fluent in both
English and Chinese.

Passage 3 COVID-19
1- The COVID-19 Pandemic has blindsided many businesses and with very
good reason. Amidst the Chaos and uncertainty, only the nimble and
flexible have the greatest hope for survival. There are Different approaches
464
‫أكاديمية عايد للتدريب‬
‫ وإلا تتحمل المسئولية كاملة أمام الجهات المختصة‬0568955606 ‫هذه الملفات خاصة بأكاديمية عايد محمية بحقوق حفظ ونسخ فلا تحاول الحصول عليها بط ريقة غير شرعية إلا عن طريق‬

that could help businesses respond or thrive in the current COVID-19


climate and social media marketing plays a key role in the successful
implementation of these approaches.
2- With most of the population staying at home it is important, wherever
possible, for businesses to Adapt to their customers’ changing
requirements and desires; to adjust their offerings to help their customers
engage with their brand and products from home due to the current
circumstances. This Means making purchasing online or over the phone, a
simple and convenient process and home Delivery readily available and
affordable. Online shopping has become significantly important since the
spread of Covid 19 in 2020. Only those businesses which could adapt their
advertisements to the Change of their customers’ needs could thrive while
others faded away and vanished.
3- Creating a paid advertising campaign on social media platforms such as
Facebook and Instagram can be highly targeted to reach people within a
specific geographical area, from specific age groups and with interests
relating directly to your brand. Also, remember to have the Facebook pixel
installed in your website so that ads can be retargeted to people who have
visited your website. This is the most cost-effective way to advertise on
Facebook and Instagram.
4- Now is the time to increase your social media activities to help and
entertain customers while they are stuck at home. Creating helpful content
to show customers how they can get by at home until they can use your
products again, is one of the best ways to strengthen customer relations.
5- Depending on your business, helpful content could be recipes coming
from a cafe or restaurant, home workouts from a gym, home treatments
from a beauty therapist. Of course, it needs to be relevant and appropriate
for your business.
6- Customers will be grateful that you provided a fun and useful experience
for them while they have been stuck at home. In fact, the Edelman Trust
Barometer Special Report also found that since the beginning of the
COVID-19 Pandemic more than one-third of consumers (82% in China,
60% in India) said that they have started using a new brand because of the
innovative or compassionate way that it has responded." It also showed

D. It is useless.

Passage 4 Crime
1- In ordinary language, a crime is an unlawful act punishable by a state or
other authority. The term Crime does not, in modern criminal law, have
any simple and universally accepted definition, though Statutory
definitions have been provided for certain purposes. The most popular
view is that crime is A category created by law; in other words, something
466
‫أكاديمية عايد للتدريب‬
‫ وإلا تتحمل المسئولية كاملة أمام الجهات المختصة‬0568955606 ‫هذه الملفات خاصة بأكاديمية عايد محمية بحقوق حفظ ونسخ فلا تحاول الحصول عليها بط ريقة غير شرعية إلا عن طريق‬

is a crime if declared as such by the relevant and applicable law. One


proposed definition is that a crime or offence (or criminal offence) is an
illegal Act that is harmful not only to some individual but also to a
community, society, or the state (“a public Wrong”). Such acts are
forbidden and punishable by law. Therefore, an act is a crime only when it
is in Violation of criminal law.
2- The notion that acts such as murder, rape, and theft are to be prohibited
exists worldwide. What Precisely is a criminal offence is defined by the
criminal law of each relevant jurisdiction. While many Have a catalogue of
crimes called the criminal code, in some common law nations no such
Comprehensive statute exists. So, it would be a great move if the countries
all over the world would Agree on a clearer and more comprehensive
definition of the word, crime.
31) What is a fact according to the writer?
A. Crime is a general term.
B. Crime is a very accurate term that encompasses all possible crimes.
C. There is an agreement among countries on what crime is at all.
D. A crime is a wrongdoing against individuals only.
32) What are alternate words used for illegal acts?
A. Purpose and statutory
B. Offence and community
C. Crime and violation
D. Violation and criminal law
33) What does the writer think about the definition of crime?
a. It is very clear and accurate.
b. It can be made clearer.
c. It is perfect.
d. It includes all the crimes that exist.

Passage 5 Sugar
When you eat or drink too much sugar, the extra insulin in your bloodstream
can affect your arteries All over your body. It causes their walls to get
inflamed, grow thicker than normal and stiffer, this Stresses your heart and

467
‫أكاديمية عايد للتدريب‬
‫ وإلا تتحمل المسئولية كاملة أمام الجهات المختصة‬0568955606 ‫هذه الملفات خاصة بأكاديمية عايد محمية بحقوق حفظ ونسخ فلا تحاول الحصول عليها بط ريقة غير شرعية إلا عن طريق‬

damages it over time. This can lead to heart disease, like heart failure, heart
Attacks, and strokes.
34) What health problem does sugar cause?
a. Your bloodstream
b. It causes low blood pressure.
c. It causes heart diseases.
d. It causes stress

Passage 6 Vitamin D
1- Vitamin D or the sunshine vitamin is an important nutrient for the
body. Vitamin D deficiency can lead to weak bones and increase risk of
osteoporosis, bone pain and arthritis. And if a new study is to be believed,
then the vitamin can lead to aggressive behavior in adolescents. Conducted
by researchers at the University of Michigan, the study found a link between
Vitamin D deficiency in young kids to aggression in their adolescent age. The
sunshine vitamin is synthesized in the body in the presence of sunlight.
2- The body needs it to absorb calcium and make bones stronger. That’s why
the people living in Antarctica suffer from vitamin D deficiency because there
isn’t enough sunlight. In a study that was carried in Antarctica, 90% of the 130
expeditioners had a lower bone density at the hip by 2%.
35) What does vitamin D deficiency lead to?
A. weaker bones
B. denser bones
C. relaxation
D. adolescence
36) Why do countries in the Antarctica have a vitamin D deficiency?
A. because it is the southernmost continent.
B. because it has a lot of snow.
C. There isn’t enough sunlight.
D. People there eat a lot of fish
Passage 7 Livestock farming
1- The livestock sector is one of the fastest growing segments of the
agricultural economy, particularly in the developing world. The global
demand for meat, including beef, pork, chicken, and lamb, has tripled in the
468
‫أكاديمية عايد للتدريب‬
‫ وإلا تتحمل المسئولية كاملة أمام الجهات المختصة‬0568955606 ‫هذه الملفات خاصة بأكاديمية عايد محمية بحقوق حفظ ونسخ فلا تحاول الحصول عليها بط ريقة غير شرعية إلا عن طريق‬

past 50 years – due primarily to a growing global population. This increased


demand for meat is paralleled by rising temperatures and sea levels, i.e.
global warming.
2- While on the surface these might seem like two separate phenomena, a
closer look reveals the undeniable link between meat production and climate
change. The relationship between the livestock industry – the rearing of
animals to produce dairy and meat products – and climate change is
becoming more apparent with population growth and globalization
influencing a global shift towards the so-called Western Diet, which is
basically pounds and pounds of meat (usually red meat) paired with high
amounts of saturated fat and sugar.
3- A new study adds to the evidence that eating red meat on a regular basis
may shorten your lifespan. Past research has tied red meat to increased risks
of diabetes, cardiovascular disease and certain cancers. The studies have also
pointed to an elevated risk of mortality from red meat intake.
4- Factory farms are the largest user of land resources globally with 80% of
total agricultural land used to grow the crops that feed animals. On a global
scale, a meat-based diet requires almost three times more land than a plant-
based diet. As populations continue to grow and meat demand increases,
more and more deforestation is likely to occur, too, to make room for pasture
lands for beef cattle. Forests are crucial to maintaining biodiversity in wildlife
and also are important carbon sink lands, absorbing carbon dioxide from the
environment.
5- Cutting down trees releases all the absorbed CO2 – putting it back into the
atmosphere – and irrevocably damages wildlife habitats – contributing to an
increase in endangered species by rupturing whole ecosystems paired with
biodiversity loss. Meat Production uses a lot of water; approximately 10% of
water flow worldwide is used for rearing livestock. This is a considerable
amount when we consider the threat of water scarcity as populations increase
and climate-change induced droughts become more frequent.
6- While the consequences of climate change are immense and often difficult
to digest, being more informed about the impact of your individual choices
can make all the difference. Knowing the meat and dairy industry’s negative
environmental impact might give you the motivation you need to reduce
469

your animal product consumption and welcome more greens and grains into
your diet. However, the grain prices keep rising due to the livestock farming
which make it even harder for the poor to afford them. This cycle gets vicious
with the passing of time: the increased prices of grains increase the prices of
the livestock feeding and thus products, as well. To break this cycle, it is
advisable for people to cut down on eating red meat to help reduce not only
grains prices, global warming but also water consumption.
37) What does paragraph 2 say about livestock farming regarding the
environment?
A. It causes global warming.
B. It causes population growth.
C. It causes a global shift towards the Western Diet.
D. It causes a decrease in temperature.
38) What do paragraphs 2 and 3 say about eating too much red meat?
A. It hurts the animals.
B. It is good for reducing global warming.
C. It is healthy.
D. It is unhealthy.
39) What does paragraph 5 say about livestock Farming?
A. It releases CO2.
B. It wastes too much water.
C. It produces 10% of water.
D. It doesn’t need much water.
40)What does paragraph 6 say about livestock farming affecting poor?
A. It provides the poor with the needed nutrition.
B. It is too expensive for the poor to buy.
C. It increases the price of grains so the poor can no longer afford it.
D. The poor can afford buying the red meat.
Passage (8) globalization ‫العولمة‬
(1) Many people think globalization is a new phenomenon. In fact, this
process has been happening for thousands of years. For example, some
very old Chinese artifacts have been found in North and South America,
and antique Arabian money has been found as far north as Norway.

470

(2) What is even more remarkable is how quickly plants from the New World
became staples in the Old World. Hungarian cooking. For example, is
famous for use of red peppers, and the Irish and famous for eating
potatoes. Indian food is an even better example. People in many countries
now often eat Indian food. They seem to enjoy the idea that is the
"traditional" but what is really in it? In many "traditional" Indian dishes, you
will probably find potatoes, tomatoes, squash, corn, and sweet peppers.
Your food may be cooked in peanut oil and have peanuts and cashew
nuts sprinkled on top. For dessert you may have guavas or papaya.
(3) We think of all this food as "traditional" Indian food. Yet sailors brought all
these plants to India from America on ships after 1500. We can also
assume that they took a long time to spread and become popular in their
new homes. So really, they are not that traditional - they are relatively
new. And the same is true for traditional food in many places. The chili
pepper for instance is a main part of the diet from South Africa to
Hungary, from Mexico to Spain, to Yemen to India to China, but it
originated in the Americas. So Globalization is really nothing new. We can
learn a lot about globalization today by studying patterns of globalization
in the past. It is a process that has been happening since man began to
trade.

41) According to paragraph (1). Globalization is often assumed to be a recent


development. In fact, globalization ……………..
a) Originated with the Chinese
b) Went as far north as Norway
c) Has been going on for a long time
d) Is evidenced in North and South America

Passage (9) The Suez Canal ‫قناة السويس‬


(1) The Official Opening of The Suez Canal was on November 17, 1869.
Representatives of almost every European royal family attended the
inauguration celebration. Ships from France, Russia, Austria, Italy, Britain
and the United States sailed through the canal. The total cost of the
project was an estimated $105 million, which at the time was a lot of
money. This was more than twice the original estimate. But it was a tiny
sum compared with the cost of a similar project today.

Passage (10) Dictionaries ‫القواميس‬


(1) Luis wrote a paper for his course in field methods. He asked students how
they used dictionaries and compared their success in learning English.
(2) The conclusions of his research are as follows: students who said they
never or hardly ever used dictionaries often spoke English well but usually
wrote poorly because they made many spelling mistakes. The ones who
looked up very unfamiliar word read very slowly.
(3) Therefore, they did not have time to read much. Those who used small
two-language dictionaries had the worst problems. Their dictionaries often
gave only one or two words as a translation of English. Because one
English word often has meanings in English. These dictionaries did not
give enough information.

49) What is the best title for this passage?


a) Field Methods Course
b) Effective Dictionary Use
c) Students spelling Problems
d) Using Dictionaries for writing

Passage (11) Stress ‫الضغط‬

(1) We generally use the word "stress" when we feel that everything seems to
have become too much. We are overloaded and wonder whether we really
can cope with the demands placed upon us. Anything that poses a
challenge or a threat to our well-being is a stress at all, many say our lives
would be boring and would probably feel pointless. However, when the
stresses affect both our mental and physical health they are bad.
(2) The way we respond to a challenge may also be a type of stress. Part of
our response to a challenge is physiological and affects our physical state.
When faced with a challenge or a threat, our body activates resources to
protect us; to either get away as fast as we can. Or fight. This is known as
our 'fight-or-flight' response.
(3) If you are upstairs at home and an earthquake starts, the faster you can
get yourself, and anyone else who might be at home, out the more likely
you are all to survive. If you need to save somebody's life during that
earthquake by lifting a heavy weight that has fallen on them. You will need
parts of your body to be activated to give you more strength.
(4) To do this, our body produces larger quantities of the chemicals cortisol,
adrenaline and noradrenaline, which trigger it to have a higher heart rate.
Heightened muscle preparedness, sweating, and alertness. All these factors
help us protect ourselves in a dangerous or challenging situation.
(5) Non-essential body functions slow down, such as our digestive and
immune systems when we are in a 'fight-or-flight' situation. All resources
474

can then be concentrated or rapid breathing, blood flow, alertness and


muscle use.
(6) Most of us have varying interpretations of what stress is about and what
matters, sort of us focus on what happens to us, such as breaking a bone
or getting a promotion. While others think more about the event itself. In
my opinion. What really matters are our thoughts about the situations in
which we find ourselves.
52) The word overloaded in paragraph (1), is closest in meaning to........
a) Feeling NOT listened to
b) Feeling NOT supported
c) Feeling under pressure
d) Feeling overweight
53) What does the expression 'fight or flight response' used in paragraph (2)
mean?
a) Staying in a dangerous situation or facing it
b) Getting away from a dangerous situation very quickly
c) The ways a dangerous situation changes with stress
d) The ways a person's body reacts to a dangerous situation

54) According to Paragraph (3), what is the best advice in the event of an
earthquake?

Passage (12) Bees ‫النحل‬


(1) The Holy Quran tells us that insects form communities (Surat al-An'am, 38)
and that they can communicate with one another (Surat an-Naml, 18) and
work together to produce food (Surat al-Nahl, 68-9). Modern science, more
than 1,400 years afterwards, has accepted that this information is indeed
correct. Now, scientists in the United Kingdom are learning that some of
these amazing creatures may also have feelings and emotions similar to those
of humans.
(2) At Newcastle University, they are trying to discover how some insects feel.
In recent years, honeybee numbers have been declining worldwide at a
disturbing rate. Many explanations have been given for this. Some say the bees
are dying because of disease and pesticides. Others say it may be due to
pollution or microwave towers. At any rate, this is a very serious situation, for
humans as well as for the bees. At least one-third of the world's crops depend
on bees. Farmers are worried. What about the bees? How do they feel? Are
they scared, sad or depressed?
(3) The researchers trained a group of bees to tell the difference between two
smells. After one smell, they were always given a sweet sugar reward. After the
other smell, they were given a bitter substance. They quickly learned to choose
the smell with the sweet prize and to stick out their tongues to get it. The
scientists wanted to see what the bees would do if they were put in a stressful
situation. They shook up half of the bees, to make them think they were in
danger. These stressed bees refused to put out their tongues for new smells,
and only chose the old smell which they knew would be followed by a sweet
treat. Even though there was an equal chance that a strange smell would taste
476

good, it seemed they believed it would taste bad and were afraid to try it. These
bees had become “pessimists". The other half-the unstressed bees-were much
more likely to try tastes from new smells, thus remaining “optimists”.
(4) When humans are stressed, anxious, worried or depressed, they have lower
levels of the brain hormone serotonin. So did the stressed bees. This may mean
that the feelings of anxious and stressed bees are similar to those of humans
with mood disorders. This knowledge, along with further investigations into bee
behavior and "feelings" can hopefully be used to understand and remedy their
declining numbers, for their sake and for ours.

58) The words these amazing creatures in Paragraph (1) refer to …………….
(A) bees
(B) insects
(C) scientists
(D) communities
59) Why are bees important to humans?
(A) They have communities and can communicate.
(B) They are necessary to produce our food crops.
(C) They are becoming more numerous than us.
(D) They have feelings like us.
60) Which paragraph describes how the scientists trained the bees?
(A) Paragraph (1)
(B) Paragraph (2)
(C) Paragraph (3)
(D) Paragraph (4)

Passage 1 OS (‫)نظام تشغيل الحاسب‬

(1) A computer is a set of resources for the movement, storage, and


processing of data and for the control of these functions. The OS is responsible
for managing these resources.
(2) Can we say that it is the OS that controls the movement, storage, and
processing of data? From one point of view, the answer is yes: By managing
the computer's resources, the OS is in control of the computer's basic functions.
But this control is exercised in a curious way. Normally, we think of a control
mechanism as something external to that which is controlled, or at least as
something that is a distinct and separate part of that which is controlled. For
example, a residential heating system is controlled by a thermostat, which is
separate from the heat-generation and heat-distribution apparatus.) This is not
the case with the OS which as a control mechanism is unusual in two respects:
● The OS functions is the same way as ordinary computer software; that is,
it is a program or suite of programs executed by the processor.
● The OS frequently relinquishes control and must depend on the
processor to allow it to regain control.
(3) Like other computer programs, the OS provides instructions for the
processor. The key difference is in the intent of the program. The OS directs
the processor in the use of the other system resources and in the timing of its
execution of other programs; But in order for the processor to do any of these
things, it must cease executing, the OS program and execute other programs.
Thus, the OS relinquishes control for the processor to do some "useful" work
and then resumes control long enough to prepare the processor to do the next
piece of work.

22) What is one important idea that the writer mentions?


a) The OS controls all computer programs alone.
b) The OS is separate from the system it controls.
c) The OS needs to be to have a break from its work.
d) The OS works like other computer software.

Passage 2 (‫)الأذن الداخلية‬


(1) Within the inner ear, thousands of hair cells detect sound waves and
translate them into nerve signals that allow us to hear speech, music, and other
everyday sounds. Damage to these cells is one of the leading causes of hearing
loss, which affects 48 million Americans.
(2) Each of us is born with about 15,000 hair cells per ear. And once
damaged. These cells cannot regrow. However. Researches at MIT. Brigham
and Women's Hospital. And Massachusetts Eye and Ear have now discovered
a combination of drugs that expands the population of progenitor cells also
called supporting cells) in the ear and encourages them to become hair cells,
offering a potential new way to treat hearing loss.
(3) Because this treatment involves a simple drug exposure, the researchers
believe it could be easy to administer it to human patients. They envision that
the drugs could be injected into the middle ear. From which they would diffuse
across a membrane into the inner ear. This type of injection is commonly
performed to treat ear infections.
(4) Hearing loss is a real problem as people get older. It's very much of an
unmet need, and this is an entirely new approach.
23) What is the author's main purpose?
a) To explain
b) To inform
c) To convince
d) To teach medicine
24) What is one important idea that the author mentions?
a) Men are more likely to suffer from hearing loss.
b) The treatment is injected into the middle ear.
c) Hearing loss affects 48 million Americans.

Passage 3
Compensating Differentials
(‫)التعويض واختلاف حسابات بدل صعوبات الوظائف‬
(1) Jobs that are dangerous or unpleasant must pay more than jobs requiring
similar skills but without the bad attributes. Thus, oil field workers in Alaska's
North Slope, well above the Arctic Circle, earn a premium over workers in
similar jobs in Houston, Texas. The premium – or differential pay – must be
such that the marginal worker is indifferent between the two choices – the
extra pay compensates the worker for the adverse working conditions. This is
why it is known in economics jargon by the phrase of a compensating
differential.
(2) The high salaries earned by professional basketball players are not a
compensating differential. These salaries are not created by a need to induce
tall people to choose basketball over alternative jobs like painting ceilings,
but instead are payments that reflect the rarity of the skills and abilities
involved. Compensating differentials are determined by alternatives, not by
direct scarcity. Professional basketball players are well-paid for the same
reason that Picasso's paintings are expensive: there aren't very many of them
relative to demand.
(3) A compensating differential is a feature of other choices as well as career
choices. For example, many people would like to live in California. for its
weather and scenic beauty. Given the desirability of California over, say,
Lincoln, Nebraska or Rochester, New York, there must be a compensating
differential for living in Rochester, and two significant ones are air quality and
housing prices. Air quality worsens as populations rise thus, tending to create
a compensating differential. In addition, the increase in housing prices also

tends to compensate – housing is inexpensive in Rochester, at least


compared to California.
26) what does paragraph (1) say about Houston, Texas?
a) It is colder in winter than Alaska

a) In addition the increase in housing prices also tends to compensate
b) Many people would like to live in California, for its weather and scenic
beauty.
c) A compensating differential is a feature of other choices as well as
career choices.

Passage 4 External and Internal Recruiting


(‫)التوظيف من داخل او خارج الشركة‬
Passage A: External Recruiting
(1) External recruiting is the attempt to attract job applicants from outside an
organization. External recruiting may include recruiting via newspaper
advertising, employment agencies, and online employment organizations;
recruiting on college campuses, soliciting recommendations from present
employees; and conducting «open houses». The biggest of the online job-
search sites is Monster.com, which has almost all the Fortune 500 companies,
as well as small and medium-sized businesses, as clients. In addition, many
people simply apply at a firm's employment office.
(2) Clearly, it is best to match the recruiting means with the kind of applicant
being sought. For example, private employment agencies most often handle
professional people, whereas public employment agencies (operated by state
or local governments) are more concerned with operations personnel. We
might approach a private agency when looking for a vice president but
contact a public agency to hire a machinist. Procter and Gamble hires
graduates directly out of college. It picks the best and brightest – not those
«tainted» by another company's culture. It promotes its own «inside» people.
This policy makes sure that the company retains the best and brightest and
trains new recruits. Procter and Gamble pays competitively and offers
positions in many countries. Employee turnover is very low.
(3) The primary advantage of external recruiting is that it brings in people
with new perspectives and varied business backgrounds. A disadvantage of
external recruiting is that it is often expensive, especially if private

482
‫أكاديمية عايد للتدريب‬
‫ وإلا تتحمل المسئولية كاملة أمام الجهات المختصة‬0568955606 ‫هذه الملفات خاصة بأكاديمية عايد محمية بحقوق حفظ ونسخ فلا تحاول الحصول عليها بط ريقة غير شرعية إلا عن طريق‬

employment agencies must be used. External recruiting also may provoke


resentment among present employees.

Passage B: Internal Recruiting


(1) Internal recruiting means considering present employees. Among leading
companies promoted from within. In the companies that hire CEOs from
outside, 40 percent of CEOs are gone after 18 months.
(2) Promoting from within provides strong motivation for current employees
and helps the firm to retain quality personnel. General Electric, ExxonMobil,
and Eastman Kodak are companies dedicated to promoting from within. The
practice of job posting, or informing current employees of upcoming
openings, may be a company policy or required by union contract. The
primary disadvantage of internal recruiting is that promoting a current
employee leaves another position to be filled. Not only does the firm still
incur recruiting and selection costs, but it also must train two employees
instead of one.
(3) In many situations it may be impossible to recruit internally. For example, a
new position may be such that no current employee is qualified, or the firm
may be growing so rapidly that there is no time to reassign positions that
promotion or transfer requires. Unions are culturally specific to countries
other than Saudi Arabia, so test takers may not be familiar with the «union
contract».
33) How many of Britain's CEOs were educated in private schools in 2015?
a) around 38%
b) around 55%
c) around 70%
d) around 87%
34) According to Passages A and B, what is the benefit of promoting within a
company?
a) It helps companies retain the best employees
b) It leaves other positions to be filled
c) It increases employee turnover
d) It is NOT expensive
35) What can we understand from Passages A and B about recruiting?

employees?
a) 40% of CEOs are promoted from within
b) Companies set policies for hiring their own employees
c) A transfer to a position at the same level is NOT allowed
d) Employees promoted from within usually leave after 18 months
37) What can we understand from both passages about internal and external
recruiting?
a) They both require the use of employment agencies
b) They both require companies to pay high salaries
c) They both involve training employees
d) They both provide opportunities to work in other countries

Passage 5 - Loss of Energy (‫)فقد الطاقة‬


(1) No system can be perfect in the way it operates. Whenever there is a
change in a system, energy is transferred and some of that energy is
dissipated.
(2) Dissipation is a term that is often used to describe ways in which energy is
wasted. Any energy that is not transferred to useful energy stores is said to be
wasted because it is lost to the Surroundings. Electrical cables Warming up
are a good example of this. It is not useful to have hot wires behind a
television as energy is dissipated to the surrounding air.
(3) In a mechanical system, energy is dissipated when two surfaces rub
together, work is done against friction which camass heading of the two
surface – so the internal (thermal) energy of the surface increases adding
Lubricant between the surfaces reduce this friction and so less heat is wasted,
like on a conveyor belt for example.
(4) In an electrical context – new types of components can be more energy –
efficient, for example, using LED light bulbs as opposed to filament lamps

484

causes less energy to be wasted. Normally. Energy is lost by heating up the


surroundings though sometimes energy is dissipated as sound waves.
38) What's the writer's main purpose?
a) to compare
b) to inform
c) to advise
d) to convince
39) What is one important point that the writer mentions?
a) That oil can make conveyor belts work better.
b) That energy can be wasted in the form of sound waves.
c) That hot electrical cables can result in wasted energy.
d) That moving one surface against another causes energy waste.
40) What is one important point that the writer mentions?
a) That various electrical parts save energy to different degrees.
b) That hot television cables can cause waste of energy.
c) That LED lights save energy more than other lamps.
d) That governments are more careful about saving energy now.

Passage 6 Defining Design Problems (‫)مشاكل التصميم‬


Basic engineering design includes defining the problem as a first step. In the
problem definition step, the needs of potential customers are investigated.
potential competitors are identified and their market positions are
characterized: constraints imposed by government regulations or
technological limitations are identified, and constraints on the design effort
such as available personnel, time, and money are established. The problem
definition process results in a clear understanding of the scope of the design
project and the resources available to solve the design problem. This
understanding is often expressed in a problem statement. This understanding
is also expressed in the form of criteria and constraints.

Passage 7 Pyramids
Pyramids were constructed by large work gangs over a period of many years.
The Pyramid Age spans over a thousand years, starting in the third dynasty
and ending in the Second Intermediate Period. The Greek historian
Herodotus was told that it took 100,000 men 20 years to build the Great
Pyramid at Giza. Scholars today, however, think it may have been built by
only 20,000 men over 20 years.
One theory suggests that causeways were used to haul the stone blocks on
wooden sleds up the side of the pyramids. The ramps were lubricated with
water to reduce friction when hauling the blocks. As few as 10 men were
needed to drag a stone block up a ramp. There may have been several ramps
on each side of the pyramid at different levels, and a ramp may have been
coiled around the pyramid as it grew in height. Once a stone block reached
its desired level, wooden rockers may have been used to manoeuvre it into
position.
The Ramp Theory is considered by far the most accepted by the Egyptology
community who believe that the pyramid was made by sheer will and human
power suing a massive workforce and incredible intelligence in transporting
the stones across the desert through sleds and ropes. They used wet sand to
drag the stones to reduce the fraction and make the dragging process easier.

43) How many workers did they need to build the pyramids?
a) 100.000 men, 20 years
44) How did they build the pyramids?
b) As 10 men were needed to drag a stone.
45) what did they use to build the pyramids?
c) wet Sand fraction

Passage (8) Pizza


1- Pizza, which originated in Italy. Is a fast food that is known and loved all
around the world. How did it become so popular? Part of the reason is
that tourists who went to Italy ate it there and loved it. When they returned
to their countries, They looked for Italian restaurants that might have it.
But much more significant in pizza becoming popular worldwide that fact
that lots of American soldiers who were in Italy during World War II ate it
there and then wanted it when they returned to the USA. This dramatic
increase in the demand for pizza in the 1950s led to the development of
special restaurants for pizza.
2 - A shaky pizza parlor opened in California in 1954 which led to the first
pizza restaurant chain that spread throughout the USA and even to other
countries. Soon after that, in 1958, Two young men opened a Pizza Hut in
Kanas. Now there are Pizza Huts all over the world. Other Pizza restaurants
chains soon developed. For example. Domino's Pizza can be found all over
the world. Papa John's Pizza has also become quite popular. This ever
growing demand for pizza led to a market for ready-to-bake frozen pizzas
in supermarkets. Now pizzas can easily be enjoyed not only in restaurants.
But also at home and even in school and hospital cafeterias.
3 - Pizza is a kind of dish that can adapt well in different societies. The
ingredients for pizza can change to fit the taste and desires of a particular
culture. The key reason enabling it to gain worldwide popularity.
Vegetarians – there are many in India and other countries – can simply ask
for vegetables only on a pizza. Beef, Pork, Lamb, or goat – the choice of
meat differs from country to country – can be used. Those who like spicy
food can add their favorite spices. Dessert pizzas are readily available with
or without fruit. Seafood? No problem. Add to this variety of ingredients
the different styles of pizza: deep dish, thin crust, stuffed crust, and the
result is a dish that is adaptable to everyone's taste.
4- While pizza is not exactly a health food since it tends to be high in
calories. It can in fact contain a decent amount of vitamins and minerals due
to the wide range of possible ingredients. Pizza can therefore be nutritious.
All of these factors help explain the worldwide popularity of pizza.

Passage (9) ‫مدائن صالح‬


1) In 2008, Mada'inSaleh was made a UNESCO World Heritage site. This
means that it has become recognized as a place of historical and cultural
importance in the world. It is the only one of Saudi Arabia's 4,000
archeological sites to be honored in this way.
2) Mada'inSaleh is located about 400 kilometers north-west of Medina. Its
early history is well known by all Muslims. The Holy Quran tells us how its
people were punished by Allah. The site had been settled by the tribe of
Thamud. When prophet Saleh – Peace be upon him – warned them to
stop their bad practices and to obey Allah. They refused to listen to him.
They killed a sacred camel that was sent to them. Finally. He – peace be
upon him- told the Thamud that if they did not change their ways and
repent in three days. They would be destroyed. They disbelieved and paid
no attention to his words. So he – peace be upon him – and the true
believers left the city. The rest were all killed by
terrible lightning and an earthquake.
3) The buildings and monuments that we can see today at Mada'inSaleh are
from a later time and are remnants of the great Nabatean Kingdom. Other
famous buildings of this civilization are found in northern Syria and in
Petra in Jordan. Which was the Nabatean capital. The Nabateans also
developed a system of agriculture by digging wells and storing water
underground. At Mada'inSaleh. There are wonderful examples of their
rock- cut tombs. The facades decorated with elaborately carved designs.
