I. In most cases, you can transplant a tree successfully, at any time, if you follow the tree instructions for planting.
The most important thing is to dig out enough roots, but this process is difficult with a large tree. When you dig out
the tree, leave a bail of earth around its roots. This ball of earth should measure about a foot wide for every inch of
the tree trunks diameter. Dig deep enough to avoid cutting off too many tap roots. It is wise to call in a
professional tree expert to transplant a tree more than a few inches in trunk diameter.

81

61- The larger the trunk of the tree you are transplanting ......... .
1) the easier it is to dig out sufficient roots
2) the more you should avoid cutting off the taproots
3) the less it matters whether you call in a tree expert

62- To decide whether you can successfully transplant a tree yourself, you should ......... .
1) select your location carefully
2) measure the diameter of the tree trunk
3) cut off as many taproots as you can reach
4) measure the ball of earth around the tree roots
II. Traditional Chinese accounts ascribe the cultivation of silkworms and the weaving of silk to the wife of the
legendary emperor Huang-ti, who is supposed to have lived in the third millennium B.C. In any event, silk
culture flourished by the time of the Shang dynasty (c. 1523 - 1027 B.C.) Aristotle and Pliny both describe the
silkworm, but for centuries after silk fabrics were known in the west, the prevalent opinion was that silk was
either a fleece which grew on a tree, thus confounding it with cotton, or the fiber from the inner bark of some
tree or shrub. some persons, deceived by the glossy, silky fibers of the seed vessels of Asclepius and the silkcotton tree believed that it was the product of one of these. A few came so near the truth as to conjecture that silk
was spun by a spider or beetle. So carefully did the orient keep its secret that it was not exposed until 552 A.D.,
when two Nestorian monks who had lived in china brought secretly to Constantinople a small quantity of
silkworm eggs.

63- When did the west come to know about silkworms?


1) In the 1600s A.D.
3) In the 6th century A.D

2) In the 1500s B.C.


4) In the 3rd mil1ennium B.C

64- what made people believe that silk was the product of some seed vessels of some trees?
1) A certain type of fibers seen on the trunk of the silk-cotton tree.
2) The glossy and silky quality of the fibers of these seeds.
3) spiders which were thought to produce fibers.
4) The fine fibers produced by some fleece.
III. There can be little doubt that malaria was prevalent in all American colonies during the seventeenth century.
Toward the end of the century and continuing into the eighteenth, a rising incidence marked parts of Pennsylvania,
New Jersey, Maryland,' Delaware, and other colonies situated in the coastal plains region, while a corresponding
decline characterized New England. The significance of malaria in colonial history can not be overlooked, for it
was a major hurdle in the development of the American colonies. To the newly arrived settlers or fresh
Europeans , it frequently proved fatal, and epidemics of malaria took a heavy toll of old and new colonists alike.
In endemic regions the regular succession of spring and fall outbreaks, along with sickness and disability, deprived
the colonies of much needed labor.

IV. Elderly people are no different to anybody else. They value their independence and they want to bang onto it.
Theyd rather live in their own home than a retirement home. But they also want the reassurance or knowing that
they can get help quickly if they have a fall or they re taken ill. Right now, we are working to find a solution
that meets their needs. Together with one of the countrys leading care charities, were developing a monitoring
system that can he installed in the home. A series of unobtrusive electronic sensors record things like movement
and changes in room temperature. Even how often the fridge door opens. All this information is Fed into a
central computer, which builds up a detailed picture of the persons day to day routine. Then, if the computer
detects any big changes to this daily pattern, it makes a call to check that everythings alright. The users can
reply by pressing the 1 button on their phone if theyre okay or the ''2'' button if they need help. If theres no
response at all, the computer automatically alerts a career. Trials are currently taking place in Ipswich and
Newcastle. If the systems a success, we hope to see it introduced all over the country. It's just one or many
projects we support where improved communications can help solve peoples problems. If youd like to know
more about how better communication can help people in all walks of life, find us at www.bt.com

3) only if the user is able to reply

2) from all over the country


4) even without leaving our own backyard

V. The general principles of dynamics are rules which demonstrate a relationship between the motions of bodies
and the forces which produce those motions. Based in large part on the work of his predecessors, sir Isaac Newton
deduced three laws of dynamics which be published in 1687 on his famous principal.
Prior to Newton, Aristotle had established that the natural state of a body was a state of rest, and that unless a force acted
upon it to maintain motion, a moving body would come to rest. Galileo had succeeded in correctly describing the
behavior of falling objects and in recording that no force was required to maintain a body in motion.
He noted that the effect of force was to change motion. Huygens recognized that a change in the direction of
motion involved acceleration, just as did a change in speed, and further, that the action of a force was required.
Kepler deduced the laws describing the motion of planets around the sun. It was primarily from Galileo and
Kepler that Newton borrowed.

70- What was the main purpose of this passage?


1) To discredit Newtons laws of motion

71- Huygens stated that acceleration was required ......... .


1) only for a change in speed

VI. In the hotel dining room, Rosa and Andrew faced each other across a desert of white linen and gleaming
cutlery. They were continuing a discussion that had begun in the train and had gone on intermittently ever. Since
they arrived at the hotel an hour ago. The excitement of going away had prevented either of them from eating any
breakfast and in consequence neither was in the best of tempers. Andrew quite frankly did not want to do any more
talking till he had had his lunch. He was used to a good meal in the middle of the day and he hoped be was going to
get it. He had the feeling. Common among men, that any discussion is better on a full stomach. Women, he was
convinced, fortified by tea and aspirins, were capable of arguing themselves into the next world. Men never
discussed a matter of importance without a dinner or at least a lunch inside them.
Rosa who had had her tea and aspirins in the train could have gone without her lunch without any noticeable
inconvenience. She was intent on getting her own way and was quite prepared to harry Andrew until she got it. Quite
simply she wanted to make a day trip to France the next day if possible. There was a steamer which ran a twiceweekly service from Broadsea in the summer time. Andrew, with a kind of shame-faced desperation, was equally
certain that he did not want to go. He was a poor sailor at the best of times and the prospect of a Channel crossing held
no joy for him. It was unfortunate that Rosa should have seen the poster announcing the excursion just after they got
out of the train at Broadsea. Because he was beginning to lean that once Rosa had set her heart on a thing, it was ten to
one she got it. This holiday had not been his idea in the first place. Though he drew a little consolation from the fact
that he had insisted on paying his own share of the expenses. To his surprise Rosa hadnt made as much fuss about
this as he had expected. It was only a pity that he could not have afforded to pay her share as well as his own and so
have felt master of the situation, but it had meant getting into debt even to scrape up enough for himself.

75- It would seem that the discussion in which Rosa and Andrew were involved:
1) had first arisen as they got off the train.
2) had started after they had left on their journey.
3) had started an hour before they left on their journey.
4) had continued uninterrupted since they arrived at the hotel.

76- With regard to matters of importance Andrew believed that women were:
1) incapable of arguing on a full stomach.
3) only capable of arguing on tea and aspirins.

2) capable of arguing on only tea and aspirins.


4) only capable of arguing on an empty stomach.

77- Why do you think that Andrew did not welcome the idea of a day trip to France?
1) He disliked going on day trips.
3) He disliked going to foreign places.

2) He was afraid he might be sea-sick.


4) He had not enough money to pay for the trip.

78- How had Rosa first learned about the steamer trips to France?
1) They had been advertised on a station platform.
2) She had seen a poster about them in the train.
3) They had been advertised by a station announcer.
4) She had heard an announcement about them on the train.

79- As far as the holiday in general was concerned, Andrew was suffering from a sense of inferiority because:
1) he was unable to pay more than his own expenses.
2) Rosa had had to lend him money to pay his expenses.
3) he had had to borrow money to pay Rosas expenses.
4) he hadnt borrowed enough money to cover his expenses.
