One of the most urgent environmental problems in the world today is the shortage
of clean water. Having clean drinking water is a basic human right. However, acid
rain, industrial pollution and garbage have made many sources of water
undrinkable.
Lakes, reservoirs and even entire seas have become vast pools of poison. Lake
Baikal in Russia is one of the largest lakes in the world. It contains a rich variety of
animals and plants, including 1,300 rare species that do not exist anywhere else in
the world. Yet, they are being destroyed by the massive volumes of industrial
effluent which pour into the lake every day. Even though laws have been made, the
governments do not have the power to enforce them. Most industries simply
ignore the regulations. The Mediterranean Sea occupies 1% of the world's water
surface, but it is the dumping ground for 50% of all marine pollution. Almost
sixteen countries regularly throw industrial wastes a few miles offshore.
Water is free to everyone. A few years ago people thought that the supply of clean
water in the world was limitless. Today, many water supplies have been ruined by
pollution and sewage. Clean water is now scarce, and we are at last beginning to
respect it. What should we do to save this precious source?

Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B or C on your answer sheet to
indicate the correct
My first piece of advice to people who want to start getting fit is don’t buy an
exercise bike. Typically, people who buy them use them for a week or so and then
forget about them. There are effective if they are used regularly but you need to be
determined. Most people will find it much easier to go for a gentle jog around the
park.
As well as being easy to do, jogging is also relatively cheap compared to most other
sports. You don’t need to buy expensive clothes if you’re just going running around
the park or on the beach. The main thing is that they’re comfortable, and that they
keep you warm in the winter and cool in the summer. There is one piece of
equipment, however, that you will have to spend time and money on, and that’s
your running shoes. Remember that you are not looking for a fashion item, but for
something that will support your feet and protect you from injury. They can be
expensive, but if they are good quality they will last you a long time. It’s always
best to get expert advice, and the best place for that is a sports shop.
As for the actual jogging, the secret is to start gently, and not to do much at the
beginning – especially if you haven’t had any exercise for a long time. Try a mixture
of walking and running for ten minutes about three times a week at first. Once you
are happy doing that you can then start to increase the amount you do gradually.
After a few months you should hope to be able to run at reasonable speed for
twenty minutes three or four times a week. It’s important that you feel
comfortable with whatever you do. If you do, you’ll start to enjoy it and will
probably keep doing it. If it makes you feel uncomfortable, you’ll probably stop
after a short time and return to your bad habits. In any case, training too hard is
not very effective. Research has shown that somebody who exercise for twice as
long as or twice as hard as another person doesn’t automatically become twice as
fit.
Q28. Which of the following would serve as the best title for the passage?
A. Exercise B. Gentle jogging C. Keeping fit D. Running shoes
Q29. What is true about the exercise bikes?
A. Exercise bikes do not help you get fit.

D. Most people don’t use it for very long.

C. keep warm at all the times when you are jogging
D. spend time and money on fashionable items
Q32. It is started in the passage that_________.
A. you are advised to start jogging by walking for ten minutes
B. you should expect to feel much uncomfortable when jogging
C. you should jog three days a week and walk on the other days
D. you won’t necessarily be lot fitter by running twice as fast

One of the biggest trends in television in recent years has been the rise of “Reality
TV”. These shows, in which ordinary people are placed in unusual situations and
then filmed without a script, have become some of the highest rating shows on
television. Early programs of this genre, including Big Brother(from the
Netherlands) and Survivor(from the United States), have led to dozens of copycat
programs in many different countries. A common element to many of these
programs is that a number of contestants are placed in a closed environment in
which they are filmed 24 hours a day, and every week contestants are thrown off
the show. What is it about these shows that makes them so popular? Perhaps it is
because viewers enjoy watching ordinary people with real emotions being placed

Man is a land animal, but he also closely tied to the sea. Throughout history the sea has
served the needs of man. The sea has provided man with food and convenient way to
travel to many parts of the world. Today, nearly two thirds of the world's population lives
within 80 kilometers of the sea coast.
In the modern technological world, the sea offers many resources to help mankind
survive. Resources on land are beginning to be used up. The sea, however, still can be
hoped to supply many man's needs. The list of riches of the sea yet to be developed by
man's technology is impressive. Oil and gas explorations have been carried out for nearly
30 years. Valuable amounts of minerals existing on the ocean floor are ready to be mined.
Fish farming promises to be a good way to produce large quantities of food. The culture
of fish and shellfish is an ancient skill practiced in the past mainly by Oriental people.
Besides oil and gas, the sea may offer new sources of energy. Experts believe that the
warm temperature of the ocean can be used in a way similar to the steam in a steamship.
Ocean currents and waves offer possible use as a source of energy.
Technology is enabling man to explore ever more deeply under the sea. The development
of strong, new materials has made this possible. The technology to harvest the sea
continues to improve. Experts believe that by the year 2020 the problems that prevent US
from exploiting fully the food, minerals, and energy source of the sea will be largely solved.
Q29. The major things that the sea offers man are________.
A. fish and oil B. minerals and oil
C. food, energy sources, and minerals D. ocean currents and waves
Q30. We can conclude from the passage that________.
A. the sea resources have largely been used up.

New York has Central Park; London has Hyde Park while Kuala Lumpur has its own piece

a swamp land into rambling trails with man-made lakes, spanning 60 hectares. However,

Parliament House. Additionally, Carcosa Seri Negara is on a hilltop overlooking the Lake

Package holidays, covering a two weeks" stay in an attractive location are increasingly
popular, because they offer an inclusive price with few extras. Once you get to the
airport, it is up to the tour operator to see that you get safely to your destination.
Excursions, local entertainment, swimming, sunbathing, skiing - you name it - it’s all laid
on for you. There is, in fact, no reason for you to bother anything yourselves. You make
friends and have a good time, but there is very little chance that you will really get to
know the local people. This is even less likely on a coach tour, when you spend almost
your entire time travelling. Of course, there are carefully scheduled stops for you to visit
historic buildings and monuments, but you will probably be allowed only a brief stay
overnight in some famous city, with a polite reminder to be up and breakfasted early in
time for the coach next morning. You may visit the beautiful, the historic, the ancient, but
time is always at your elbow. There is also the added disadvantage of being obliged to
spend your holiday with a group of people you have never met before, may not like and
have no reasonable excuse for getting away from. As against this, it can be argued that
for many people, particularly the lonely or elderly, the feeling of belonging to a group,
although for a short period on holiday, is an added bonus. They can sit safely back in their
seat and watch the world go by.
Q29. In spite of its disadvantages, spending a holiday with a group is particularly good
for____
A. schoolboys and schoolgirls B. the lonely or elderly people
C. newly married young couples D. those who always travel by themselves
