Answers vary.
Suggested answer:
Animals make use of various kinds of communicative methods. Male blackbirds sing
to attract female ones and also to keep other blackbirds off their dwellings. Mammals in the
oceans like whales, 'sing' to interact with their mates far away too. Dominating hyenas raise
their fur hackles in attempts to exhibit power while submissive ones crouch their heads and
'smile' to express respects. Birds of paradise attract female partners by displaying their
colorful feathers while the stripes of zebras not only enable them to recognize each other, but
also divert the predator's attention in times of danger. Finally, dangerous wasps are brightly
colored to warn off others while some harmless ones try to fool their predators by using the
same principle. (120 words)
Part 2. (15 points)

Suggested answer:
The first chart shows the average price for a barrel of oil from 1970 until 2005 in US
dollars. The second chart shows the top six oil-exporting countries in 2005 and how much
they exported per day in millions of barrels.
Since 1970, the price of oil has continually gone up and down. One can see some
general trends, though. From 1970 to around 1980, the price of one barrel of oil goes from
less than US$9 to almost US$90. This is the highest price seen on the chart. After 1980 the
price generally decreases to US$15 per barrel around 1999, when it starts rising again. In
2005, the average price per barrel of oil is about US$55.
In the second chart, Saudi Arabia exported the most oil in 2005 with about 9 million
barrels per day going to other countries. Russia is in second place with about 7 million barrels
of oil being exported. The next four countries export significantly less than Russia or Saudi
Arabia. Nigeria, the UAE, Iran, and Norway each exported a little more than 2 million barrels
of oil per day. (186 words)
Part 3. (30 points)

Answers vary.
Suggested answer:
The issue about whether children should help with household tasks as soon as they are
able to do so is open for debate. Some people say that children should devote more time for
playing with their friends, watching TV and studying. However, other people believe that
children should help their parents with household tasks. Personally, for several reasons, which
I will explain bellow, I adhere to the latter point of view.
First of all, I think that every child should have his or her own responsibilities. When I
was a child my parents taught me how to make breakfast in the morning. So, I woke up, went
to the kitchen and prepared a couple of toasts for breakfast. It was easy and I enjoyed doing it
because I liked the way my parents thanked me and I felt that they were proud of me. Also,
my mom always wanted me to know how to cook, clean and iron my cloth. Thanks to the
learning, nowadays, when my maid cannot come to my house I handle all household tasks
myself.
Second of all, performing household tasks teaches children to value the job of people
who did it. When I was a child I did not imagine that cleaning house could be so time and
energy consuming. So, when I began to do some of the household tasks by myself I began to
respect the job of others and tried to collect all my toys after my playing with them.

Finally, doing household tasks teaches children to arrange their time. In addition to
those practical benefits, help from children allows parents to have more spare time for their
personal lives and for the children. A family can have more time to spend with each other
talking, watching movies or just enjoying the beautiful moments.
To sum up, I think that children should help their parents with household tasks. Doing
household tasks helps them to grow into independent, self-confident, and attentive persons
who respect their parents. (333 words)
