51. Read the paragraph and choose the correct answer for the message this text provides.
Each culture has a different ideal of beauty and throughout the ages, men and women have
done amazing things to achieve the ideal. They have had their hair shaved, cut, colored,
straightened, and curled; and they have their bodies decorated with painting and tattoos.
Here are some of today’s many options. Getting your hair done is the easiest way to change
your appearance. Today, both men and women have their hair permed. This chemical
procedure can curly hair or just give it some body. If your hair is long, you can, of course, get
it cut, but did you know that you can also have short hair lengthened? You can have hair
extensions added to your own hair, and the effect can be either conservative or very far out.
You can have your hair colored and become a blonde, brunette, or redhead, but you can also
have it bleached white or get it dyed blue, green, or orange.
52. Read the passage. Then choose the correct option to answer the question. Advice from Dr.
Penny Lovejoy "Dear Dr. Lovejoy, I’m a 25 year-old man. I have a good job as an office worker
with a successful construction company. My salary is pretty good, but I don’t make enough
money to live alone. Now I live with my parents, so that I can save money. My problem is my
girlfriend, Sheila. Sheila says I should move out from my parents’ house. She says I’m not a
“real man” if I don’t have my own apartment. I don’t like it when she says this. It hurts my
feelings. What should I do? Andrew in Miami. Dear Andrew, Don’t worry! I think you are a
smart guy. You have a plan for your future. You should talk to Sheila. Tell her your feelings.
Tell her that you prefer to live with your parents for now. Tell her that you plan to move out
after you save enough money. If Sheila doesn’t understand you, maybe she is not the right
girlfriend for you. Boyfriends and girlfriends must respect each other. True love is based on
respect. Andrew says, “It hurts my feelings.” What is he talking about?
53. Read the paragraph and choose the correct answer for the message this text provides. The
average U.S. teenager might watch as many as 18.000 hours of TV by the time he or she
graduates. You may think that anyone who watches this much TV has got to understand how
it works. However, most of us (not just teenagers) can’t recognize many of the messages TV is
sending. For this reason, many experts think that everyone should become “TV literate.”
People who are television literate are able to understand how TV messages influence an
audience. They don’t have to believe everything they see on the tube. Here are some things
you ought to know about television. TV networks have to make money by selling time to
advertisers. This fact influences all commercial TV. A drama writer, for example, may avoid
topics that could embarrass the advertiser sponsoring the program. TV’s world is not real. This
might sound obvious, but you ought to remind yourself often of this fact. After all, when you
see something, you feel that it must be the real thing. TV uses specific techniques and you can
learn to identify them. Lighting, camera angles, and music have got the ability to make things
seem beautiful, fightening, or funny. They can also make you feel that you must buy a certain
product. Get literate, and you’ll be able to enjoy TV, without being its victim.
54. Read the following review. Choose the correct options to answer the question. Working
women can have a lot of responsibilities: jobs, social commitments, families, etc. Successful
women in top-level jobs have many tools which help them fulfill all these roles. One of the
most important is the cell phone. While a good resumé helps women get a job when they post
a job-wanted ad, a cell phone helps them keep the job. They just press a button and can
immediately communicate with their families while at work, or with their jobs while at home.
Susan Richardson gives advice to women. She works for Horizons, a multimillion-dollar cell
phone company. Cell phones helped her become successful, and she teaches other women
the secret to her success. "The first step to success is a balance between work and family. Cell
phones make this possible," she says. The reviewer talks about a "resumé." What is a resumé?
A brief interview
A connection with the company

55. Read the review found on a website. Click on the answers. Are you tired of your life? Would
you like to find new friends? Go to FriendClick.com to start your new life today!
FriendClick.com is a great new relationship site: • Post your profile to attract new friends. •
Discover friends with similar interests and hobbies. • Find a teacher to learn English or any
other new skill. • Locate a study partner near you. Dr. Anna Stinson is a psychologist. She says
many people today use websites like FriendClick because they are lonely. Many people feel
isolated, she says. They don't know how to meet people or make new friends. They often turn
to websites like this one. Why? Because they believe technology will solve their problems.
Unfortunately, Dr. Stinson says, this never really works. Dr. Stinson says many people feel
"isolated." What does she mean?
56. Read the article. Choose the correct answer. Advice from Dr. Penny Lovejoy "Dear Dr.
Lovejoy, I’m a 22 year-old woman. I just graduated from university and started work at a large
company last month. I’m a programmer for a major software company. I really love my new
job. It’s challenging and I have a good salary. Last week, a guy in my office, “Bob”, invited me
to go out with him on a date. He’s nice and I kind of like him. But we work for the same
company, so I feel a little strange. Is it OK to go out with a co-worker? I look forward to your
advice. – Jennifer, New York. Dear Jennifer, Congratulations on finding a great job! Work is
one of the main parts of our life. It’s important to have a challenging job that you enjoy.
Remember that you took the job for your career. You didn’t take the job to meet future
boyfriends or girlfriends. Most office romances end after a short time, and then life is very
uncomfortable for both people! My advice is to remain friends with the guy in your office, but
don’t go out on a date together. Keep your work life and social life separate. What is the
relationship between Ashley and Bob?
Ashley is Bob’s boss.
They work for the same company
They have been dating for a long time.

Lovejoy, I’m a 22 year-old woman. I just graduated from university and started work at a large
company last month. I’m a programmer for a major software company. I really love my new
job. It’s challenging and I have a good salary. Last week, a guy in my office, “Bob”, invited me
to go out with him on a date. He’s nice and I kind of like him. But we work for the same
company, so I feel a little strange. Is it OK to go out with a co-worker? I look forward to your
advice. – Jennifer, New York. Dear Jennifer, Congratulations on finding a great job! Work is
one of the main parts of our life. It’s important to have a challenging job that you enjoy.
Remember that you took the job for your career. You didn’t take the job to meet future
boyfriends or girlfriends. Most office romances end after a short time, and then life is very
uncomfortable for both people! My advice is to remain friends with the guy in your office, but
don’t go out on a date together. Keep your work life and social life separate. What is the
relationship between Ashley and Bob?
Ashley is Bob’s boss.
They work for the same company
They have been dating for a long time.

Now I live with my parents, so that I can save money. My problem is my girlfriend, Sheila.
Sheila says I should move out from my parents’ house. She says I’m not a “real man” if I don’t
have my own apartment. I don’t like it when she says this. It hurts my feelings. What should I
do? Andrew in Miami. Dear Andrew, Don’t worry! I think you are a smart guy. You have a plan
for your future. You should talk to Sheila. Tell her your feelings. Tell her that you prefer to live
with your parents for now. Tell her that you plan to move out after you save enough money.
If Sheila doesn’t understand you, maybe she is not the right girlfriend for you. Boyfriends and
girlfriends must respect each other. True love is based on respect. Why does Andrew live with
his parents?

40. Read the paragraph and choose the correct answer according to the information. One of
the most renowned Spanish architects of all time was Antoni Gaudi. Gaudi’s emergence as
one of Spain’s preeminent artists at the end of the nineteenth century marked a milestone in
the art world. Gaudi’s popularity helped to bring about the acceptance and rebirth of the
Catalan language, which had been banned during the peak of Castilian literature and art.
Gaudi shares his Catalonian backgroung with two other famous Spanish artists, Pablo Picasso
and Miro. Thus, their works were a combination of an old history and an active, vivid
imaginary world. This has sometimes been referred to as the “Catalan Mind.” This was
apparent not only in the artists and other individuals who surrounded him, but also in the
varied styles and techniques he employed in his architecture. Antoni Gaudi’s fame is due
primarily to his world-famous:
Political skills
Architectural structures
Paintings
41. Read the following review. Choose the correct options to answer the question. Working
women can have a lot of responsibilities: jobs, social commitments, families, etc. Successful
women in top-level jobs have many tools which help them fulfill all these roles. One of the
most important is the cell phone. While a good resumé helps women get a job when they post
a job- wanted ad, a cell phone helps them keep the job. They just press a button and can
immediately communicate with their families while at work, or with their jobs while at home.
Susan Richardson gives advice to women. She works for Horizons, a multimillion-dollar cell
phone company. Cell phones helped her become successful, and she teaches other women
the secret to her success. "The first step to success is a balance between work and family. Cell

95. Read the paragraph and choose the correct answer for the message this text provides. You
can get your nose shortened, or have your chin lengthened. If wrinkles make you look like
you’re always frowning, you can get them filled in with a collagen injection (it only lasts four
months), and costs about US 350.) You can even have the shape of your body changed with
liposuction, a process that removes fat cells. There is some risk involved, so the decision to
have cosmetic surgery requires thought. Some ways of changing your appearance may be
cheap and temporary. However, others are expensive and permanent. So, think before you
act, and don’t let today’s choice become tomorrow’s regret.

tools which help them fulfill all these roles. One of the most important is
the cell phone. While a good resumé helps women get a job when they post
a job-wanted ad, a cell phone helps them keep the job. They just press a
button and can immediately communicate with their families while at work,
or with their jobs while at home. Susan Richardson gives advice to women.
She works for Horizons, a multimillion- dollar cell phone company. Cell
phones helped her become successful, and she teaches other women the
secret to her success. "The first step to success is a balance between work
and family. Cell phones make this possible," she says. How can women get
a job?

You have a plan for your future. You should talk to Sheila. Tell her your
feelings. Tell her that you prefer to live with your parents for now. Tell her
that you plan to move out after you save enough money. If Sheila doesn’t
understand you, maybe she is not the right girlfriend for you. Boyfriends
and girlfriends must respect each other. True love is based on respect.
Andrew says, “It hurts my feelings.” What is he talking about?
232. Read the paragraph and choose the correct answer for the message
this text provides. The average U.S. teenager might watch as many as
18.000 hours of TV by the time he or she graduates. You may think that
anyone who watches this much TV has got to understand how it works.
However, most of us (not just teenagers) can’t recognize many of the
messages TV is sending. For this reason, many experts think that everyone
should become “TV literate.” People who are television literate are able to
understand how TV messages influence an audience. They don’t have to
believe everything they see on the tube. Here are some things you ought to
know about television. TV networks have to make money by selling time to
advertisers. This fact influences all commercial TV. A drama writer, for
example, may avoid topics that could embarrass the advertiser sponsoring
the program. TV’s world is not real. This might sound obvious, but you
ought to remind yourself often of this fact. After all, when you see
something, you feel that it must be the real thing. TV uses specific
techniques and you can learn to identify them. Lighting, camera angles, and
music have got the ability to make things seem beautiful, fightening, or
funny. They can also make you feel that you must buy a certain product.
Get literate, and you’ll be able to enjoy TV, without being its victim.
233. Read the following review. Choose the correct options to answer the
question. Working women can have a lot of responsibilities: jobs, social
commitments, families, etc. Successful women in top-level jobs have many
tools which help them fulfill all these roles. One of the most important is
the cell phone. While a good resumé helps women get a job when they post
a job-wanted ad, a cell phone helps them keep the job. They just press a
button and can immediately communicate with their families while at work,
or with their jobs while at home. Susan Richardson gives advice to women.
She works for Horizons, a multimillion- dollar cell phone company. Cell
phones helped her become successful, and she teaches other women the
secret to her success. "The first step to success is a balance between work
and family. Cell phones make this possible," she says. The reviewer talks
about a "resumé." What is a resumé?
A brief interview
A connection with the company
A short description of qualifications
234. Read the review found on a website. Click on the answers. Are you tired
of your life? Would you like to find new friends? Go to FriendClick.com to
start your new life today! FriendClick.com is a great new relationship site:
• Post your profile to attract new friends. • Discover friends with similar
interests and hobbies. • Find a teacher to learn English or any other new
skill. • Locate a study partner near you. Dr. Anna Stinson is a psychologist.
She says many people today use websites like FriendClick because they
are lonely. Many people feel isolated, she says. They don't know how to
meet people or make new friends. They often turn to websites like this one.
Why? Because they believe technology will solve their problems.
Unfortunately, Dr. Stinson says, this never really works. Dr. Stinson says
many people feel "isolated." What does she mean?
235. Read the article. Choose the correct answer. Advice from Dr. Penny
Lovejoy "Dear Dr. Lovejoy, I’m a 22 year-old woman. I just graduated from
university and started work at a large company last month. I’m a
programmer for a major software company. I really love my new job. It’s
challenging and I have a good salary. Last week, a guy in my office, “Bob”,
invited me to go out with him on a date. He’s nice and I kind of like him. But
we work for the same company, so I feel a little strange. Is it OK to go out
with a co-worker? I look forward to your advice. – Jennifer, New York. Dear
Jennifer, Congratulations on finding a great job! Work is one of the main
parts of our life. It’s important to have a challenging job that you enjoy.
Remember that you took the job for your career. You didn’t take the job to
meet future boyfriends or girlfriends. Most office romances end after a
short time, and then life is very uncomfortable
for both people! My advice is to remain friends with the guy in your office,
but don’t go out on a date together. Keep your work life and social life
separate.
What is the relationship between Ashley and Bob?

51. Read the paragraph and choose the correct answer for the message this text provides.
Each culture has a different ideal of beauty and throughout the ages, men and women have
done amazing things to achieve the ideal. They have had their hair shaved, cut, colored,
straightened, and curled; and they have their bodies decorated with painting and tattoos.
Here are some of today’s many options. Getting your hair done is the easiest way to change
your appearance. Today, both men and women have their hair permed. This chemical
procedure can curly hair or just give it some body. If your hair is long, you can, of course, get
it cut, but did you know that you can also have short hair lengthened? You can have hair
extensions added to your own hair, and the effect can be either conservative or very far out.
You can have your hair colored and become a blonde, brunette, or redhead, but you can also
have it bleached white or get it dyed blue, green, or orange.

Penny Lovejoy "Dear Dr. Lovejoy, I’m a 25 year-old man. I have a good job as an office worker
with a successful construction company. My salary is pretty good, but I don’t make enough
money to live alone. Now I live with my parents, so that I can save money. My problem is my
girlfriend, Sheila. Sheila says I should move out from my parents’ house. She says I’m not a
“real man” if I don’t have my own apartment. I don’t like it when she says this. It hurts my
feelings. What should I do? Andrew in Miami. Dear Andrew, Don’t worry! I think you are a
smart guy. You have a plan for your future. You should talk to Sheila. Tell her your feelings.
Tell her that you prefer to live with your parents for now. Tell her that you plan to move out
after you save enough money. If Sheila doesn’t understand you, maybe she is not the right
girlfriend for you. Boyfriends and girlfriends must respect each other. True love is based on
respect. Andrew says, “It hurts my feelings.” What is he talking about?
53. Read the paragraph and choose the correct answer for the message this text provides. The
average U.S. teenager might watch as many as 18.000 hours of TV by the time he or she
graduates. You may think that anyone who watches this much TV has got to understand how
it works. However, most of us (not just teenagers) can’t recognize many of the messages TV is
sending. For this reason, many experts think that everyone should become “TV literate.”
People who are television literate are able to understand how TV messages influence an
audience. They don’t have to believe everything they see on the tube. Here are some things
you ought to know about television. TV networks have to make money by selling time to
advertisers. This fact influences all commercial TV. A drama writer, for example, may avoid
topics that could embarrass the advertiser sponsoring the program. TV’s world is not real. This
might sound obvious, but you ought to remind yourself often of this fact. After all, when you
see something, you feel that it must be the real thing. TV uses specific techniques and you can
learn to identify them. Lighting, camera angles, and music have got the ability to make things
seem beautiful, fightening, or funny. They can also make you feel that you must buy a certain
product. Get literate, and you’ll be able to enjoy TV, without being its victim.

40. Read the paragraph and choose the correct answer according to the information. One of
the most renowned Spanish architects of all time was Antoni Gaudi. Gaudi’s emergence as
one of Spain’s preeminent artists at the end of the nineteenth century marked a milestone in
the art world. Gaudi’s popularity helped to bring about the acceptance and rebirth of the
Catalan language, which had been banned during the peak of Castilian literature and art.
Gaudi shares his Catalonian backgroung with two other famous Spanish artists, Pablo Picasso
and Miro. Thus, their works were a combination of an old history and an active, vivid
imaginary world. This has sometimes been referred to as the “Catalan Mind.” This was
apparent not only in the artists and other individuals who surrounded him, but also in the
varied styles and techniques he employed in his architecture. Antoni Gaudi’s fame is due
primarily to his world-famous:
Political skills

Lovejoy, I’m a 22 year-old woman. I just graduated from university and started work at a large
company last month. I’m a programmer for a major software company. I really love my new
job. It’s challenging and I have a good salary. Last week, a guy in my office, “Bob”, invited me
to go out with him on a date. He’s nice and I kind of like him. But we work for the same
company, so I feel a little strange. Is it OK to go out with a co-worker? I look forward to your
advice. – Jennifer, New York. Dear Jennifer, Congratulations on finding a great job! Work is
one of the main parts of our life. It’s important to have a challenging job that you enjoy.
Remember that you took the job for your career. You didn’t take the job to meet future
boyfriends or girlfriends. Most office romances end after a short time, and then life is very
uncomfortable for both people! My advice is to remain friends with the guy in your office, but
don’t go out on a date together. Keep your work life and social life separate. Why does Jennifer
like her new job?

can get your nose shortened, or have your chin lengthened. If wrinkles make you look like
you’re always frowning, you can get them filled in with a collagen injection (it only lasts four
months), and costs about US 350.) You can even have the shape of your body changed with

cheap and temporary. However, others are expensive and permanent. So, think before you
act, and don’t let today’s choice become tomorrow’s regret.

question. Working women can have a lot of responsibilities: jobs, social
commitments, families, etc. Successful women in top-level jobs have many
tools which help them fulfill all these roles. One of the most important is
the cell phone. While a good resumé helps women get a job when they post
a job-wanted ad, a cell phone helps them keep the job. They just press a
button and can immediately communicate with their families while at work,
or with their jobs while at home. Susan Richardson gives advice to women.
She works for Horizons, a multimillion- dollar cell phone company. Cell
phones helped her become successful, and she teaches other women the
secret to her success. "The first step to success is a balance between work
and family. Cell phones make this possible," she says. How can women get
a job?

230. Read the paragraph and choose the correct answer for the message
this text provides. Each culture has a different ideal of beauty and
throughout the ages, men and women have done amazing things to achieve
the ideal. They have had their hair shaved, cut, colored, straightened, and
curled; and they have their bodies decorated with painting and tattoos. Here
are some of today’s many options. Getting your hair done is the easiest way
to change your appearance. Today, both men and women have their hair
permed. This chemical procedure can curly hair or just give it some body.
If your hair is long, you can, of course, get it cut, but did you know that you
can also have short hair lengthened? You can have hair extensions added
to your own hair, and the effect can be either conservative or very far out.
You can have your hair colored and become a blonde, brunette, or redhead,
but you can also have it bleached white or get it dyed blue, green, or orange.

Advice from Dr. Penny Lovejoy "Dear Dr. Lovejoy, I’m a 25 year-old man. I
have a good job as an office worker with a successful construction
company. My salary is pretty good, but I don’t make enough money to live
alone. Now I live with my parents, so that I can save money. My problem is
my girlfriend, Sheila. Sheila says I should move out from my parents’
house. She says I’m not a “real man” if I don’t have my own apartment. I
don’t like it when she says this. It hurts my feelings. What should I do?
Andrew in Miami. Dear Andrew, Don’t worry! I think you are a smart guy.
You have a plan for your future. You should talk to Sheila. Tell her your
feelings. Tell her that you prefer to live with your parents for now. Tell her
that you plan to move out after you save enough money. If Sheila doesn’t
understand you, maybe she is not the right girlfriend for you. Boyfriends
and girlfriends must respect each other. True love is based on respect.
Andrew says, “It hurts my feelings.” What is he talking about?
232. Read the paragraph and choose the correct answer for the message
this text provides. The average U.S. teenager might watch as many as
18.000 hours of TV by the time he or she graduates. You may think that
anyone who watches this much TV has got to understand how it works.
However, most of us (not just teenagers) can’t recognize many of the
messages TV is sending. For this reason, many experts think that everyone
should become “TV literate.” People who are television literate are able to
understand how TV messages influence an audience. They don’t have to
believe everything they see on the tube. Here are some things you ought to
know about television. TV networks have to make money by selling time to
advertisers. This fact influences all commercial TV. A drama writer, for
example, may avoid topics that could embarrass the advertiser sponsoring
the program. TV’s world is not real. This might sound obvious, but you
ought to remind yourself often of this fact. After all, when you see
something, you feel that it must be the real thing. TV uses specific
techniques and you can learn to identify them. Lighting, camera angles, and
music have got the ability to make things seem beautiful, fightening, or
funny. They can also make you feel that you must buy a certain product.
Get literate, and you’ll be able to enjoy TV, without being its victim.
233. Read the following review. Choose the correct options to answer the
question. Working women can have a lot of responsibilities: jobs, social
commitments, families, etc. Successful women in top-level jobs have many
tools which help them fulfill all these roles. One of the most important is
the cell phone. While a good resumé helps women get a job when they post
a job-wanted ad, a cell phone helps them keep the job. They just press a
button and can immediately communicate with their families while at work,
or with their jobs while at home. Susan Richardson gives advice to women.
She works for Horizons, a multimillion- dollar cell phone company. Cell
phones helped her become successful, and she teaches other women the
secret to her success. "The first step to success is a balance between work
and family. Cell phones make this possible," she says. The reviewer talks
about a "resumé." What is a resumé?
A brief interview
A connection with the company
A short description of qualifications
234. Read the review found on a website. Click on the answers. Are you tired
of your life? Would you like to find new friends? Go to FriendClick.com to
start your new life today! FriendClick.com is a great new relationship site:
• Post your profile to attract new friends. • Discover friends with similar
interests and hobbies. • Find a teacher to learn English or any other new
skill. • Locate a study partner near you. Dr. Anna Stinson is a psychologist.
She says many people today use websites like FriendClick because they
are lonely. Many people feel isolated, she says. They don't know how to
meet people or make new friends. They often turn to websites like this one.
Why? Because they believe technology will solve their problems.
Unfortunately, Dr. Stinson says, this never really works. Dr. Stinson says
many people feel "isolated." What does she mean?

Lovejoy "Dear Dr. Lovejoy, I’m a 22 year-old woman. I just graduated from
university and started work at a large company last month. I’m a
programmer for a major software company. I really love my new job. It’s
challenging and I have a good salary. Last week, a guy in my office, “Bob”,
invited me to go out with him on a date. He’s nice and I kind of like him. But
we work for the same company, so I feel a little strange. Is it OK to go out
with a co-worker? I look forward to your advice. – Jennifer, New York. Dear
Jennifer, Congratulations on finding a great job! Work is one of the main
parts of our life. It’s important to have a challenging job that you enjoy.
Remember that you took the job for your career. You didn’t take the job to
meet future boyfriends or girlfriends. Most office romances end after a
short time, and then life is very uncomfortable
for both people! My advice is to remain friends with the guy in your office,
but don’t go out on a date together. Keep your work life and social life
separate.
What is the relationship between Ashley and Bob?
