indicate the correct answer to each of the following questions from 31 to 36.
Fast fashion is inexpensive clothing which is produced rapidly in response to the latest trend.
It is estimated that 100 billion items of clothing are made every year. This number is
expected to grow by 60 percent by 2030. However, the downside of this fashion industry is
its negative impact on the environment. First of all, the production of textiles requires a lot of
water. For example, it takes about 2,000 gallons of water to produce one pair of jeans. This
water is often polluted with poisonous chemicals which are used in the dyeing and finishing
process. The manufacturing process also produces a lot of air pollution which is caused by
the burning of fossil fuels to power factories and the release of chemicals into the air.
Moreover, fast fashion creates a vast amount of waste. Many of the clothes that are produced
are not worn very often, and are thrown away after a few wears. Clothing and textiles
currently make up at least 7% of the total amount of waste in global landfill space. Only 15
percent of them are recycled or donated, 19 percent are burnt, and the rest ends up in
landfills.

The Amazon River, which begins in the Andes Mountains in Peru, is the source of twenty
percent of all water that enters the oceans worldwide. At 6,400 kilometres in length, it is the
second longest river in the world. During the rainy season, parts of the river are 190
kilometres wide. The Amazon River passes through the world's largest tropical rainforest.

kinds of fish, and one-fifth of all bird species in the world. The Amazon rainforest is

controlling the Earth’s climate and weather patterns. Unfortunately, the Amazon rainforest is

Plastic is so frequently used today that it's hard to imagine life without it. However, plastic
has a serious impact on the environment. Unlike paper, fruit peel, or fabric, it can take more
than 400 years for plastic to break down. Therefore, fish often mistake plastic debris for food
and eat it, leading to deadly health problems. Animals and marine creatures can also become
trapped in plastic objects which then make it hard for them to move, eat or even breathe.
Moreover, plastic pollution can release toxic chemicals into the ecosystem, which can
negatively impact both wildlife and human health. However, there are many simple things
that we can all do to help put a stop to plastic pollution. First, reduce the amount of plastic
that we consume. Avoid using straws or plastic takeaway cups, and say no to plastic bags at
the store. Take along a fabric bag instead. Second, we need to reuse the plastic items that we
already have. Wash plastic containers and refill them. Use a lunch box rather than wrapping
meals in cling film. Lastly, recycle as much of your waste as possible.

Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C or D on your answer sheet to
indicate the correct answer to each of the following questions from 31 to 36.
Water pollution can be caused by a variety of things. Firstly, sewage is dumped directly into
the seas without being treated properly. This is a global problem, with equally significant
challenges in high-, middle-, and low-income countries. Sewage pollution has reduced the
water quality and posed several threats to human health. Secondly, cruise ships release a
large amount of garbage into the ocean every year. 40 percent of cruise ships depend on 30-
year-old waste treatment technology, leaving sewage with high levels of bacteria, heavy
metals and other pollutants that are harmful to aquatic life and people. The third reason is oil
spills. Oil spills happen in many different ways. Most of these spills are small and happen
accidentally, for example oil spills while refueling a ship. But these spills can still cause
damage, especially if they happen in sensitive environments. Large oil spills are disasters.
These tend to happen when pipelines break, or big oil tankers sink. The negative effects of
oil spills on the ecosystems and economies can be seen for decades following a large oil
spill.

Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C or D on your answer sheet to
indicate the correct answer to each of the following questions from 31 to 36.
Inventing a Capital City
The capital of a country is where the government of that country is located. In most
countries, the capital is the city with the biggest population. However, in 35 countries out of
195, this is not the case. In some cases, this is because another city is growing faster. But
more often, it is because the capital was moved from the largest city to a smaller one due to a
political decision.
For example, the largest city in Vietnam is Ho Chi Minh City, with one million more people
than Hanoi, the capital. In 1976, Hanoi became the capital of the united North and South
Vietnam.
The reason for moving has often been that there are just too many people in the capital. This
was why the government of Brazil built a new capital, Brasilia, in the centre of the country,
to replace Rio de Janeiro, which is on the coast, in 1960. It was also one of the reasons for
moving the capital of Nigeria from Lagos to Abuja in 1991. However, in both cases, there
were other reasons. The government of Brazil felt that moving the capital would encourage
growth in areas away from the coast. In Nigeria, after a lot of problems between the three
main ethnic groups, the government wanted the capital in an area not controlled by any one
group.
Question 31. What is NOT true regarding Vietnam’s capital?
A. Ho Chi Minh City is larger than Hanoi.
B. Hanoi became the capital in 1976.
C. The capital was moved for economic reasons only.
D. The population difference between the two cities is significant.
Question 32. Why was Brasilia built as Brazil's capital?
A. To replace a capital that was too small.
B. To move the capital away from the coast and encourage growth in the interior.
C. Because it was the largest city in the country.
D. To reduce the population of Rio de Janeiro.
Question 33. What was one reason for moving Nigeria’s capital from Lagos to Abuja?
A. To make it easier to access the coast.
B. To ensure it was in an area not controlled by any ethnic group.
C. To increase tourism in Lagos. D. To improve transportation links.
Question 34. The writer makes a link between Brazil and Nigeria because .............
A. the capitals were moved for the same reasons
B. the movement of capitals happened in the same year
C. both original capitals are on the coast
D. there were too many people in both capitals
Question 35. What was one reason for moving Nigeria’s capital from Lagos to Abuja?
A. To make it easier to access the coast.
B. To ensure it was in an area not controlled by any ethnic group
C. To increase tourism in Lagos.

Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C or D on your answer sheet to
indicate the correct answer to the following questions.
In 1907, a soldier in the British Army called Baden-Powell had the idea of teaching boys
some of the skills of living outdoors. He took a group of boys to an island near the south
coast of England and taught them how to follow wild animals quietly, camp in the woods,
cook food on a campfire and even the amazing skill of making fire without matches. These
skills were not necessary for the boys, but Baden-Powell saw the activities as a way to teach
young people to work together. He put the boys in a uniform like a soldier.
A scout is someone who goes out and finds things for people, especially soldiers, like water,
food and places to stay. After Baden-Powell wrote a book in 1908 called Scouting for Boys,
small scout organisations began to appear around England. When Baden-Powell held a
meeting for all these organisations in 1909, some girls came wearing uniforms like the boys
and calling themselves ‘girl scouts’. One year later, Baden-Powell started two national
organisations, one for boys, which he called ‘Scouts’, and one for girls, which he called
‘Guides’.
The number of groups for boys and girls grew very quickly in Britain and then, just as
quickly, around the world. Nowadays, there are more than 30 million scouts and guides in
over 150 countries.
Scouts and guides still learn skills like camping and cooking, but their most important
function now is helping communities. They do volunteer jobs like cleaning up parks,
planting trees, helping at local events and visiting old people.
Question 31. Who had the idea of teaching boys outdoor skills?
A. A soldier named Baden-Powell B. A scout leader in America
C. A teacher in England D. A local farmer
Question 32. What was the purpose of putting the boys in uniforms?
A. To make them look like soldiers B. To prepare them for battle
C. To help them identify each other D. To make them feel special
Question 33. Which of the original activities is the writer most surprised by?
A. Following wild animals quietly B. Making a camp
C. Cooking food outdoors D. Lighting a fire
Question 34. How has Baden-Powell’s organisation changed since 1910?
A. The members no longer learn the original B. Girls are now allowed to join.
skills.
 C. The boys and girls now wear uniforms. D. Membership is more about service to
their community.
Question 35. What do scouts and guides focus on today?
A. Learning survival skills only B. Helping communities through volunteer work
C. Competing in sports D. Traveling to other countries

to indicate the correct answer to the following questions.
 What Can I Say?
Imagine you are introduced to a stranger at a party. You know he is British, but that is all you
know about him. You want to respect the customs and habits of his culture, so what is
acceptable for you to talk about?
British people normally expect the conversation to start with a comment about the weather. If
it has been wet, you could say, ‘What terrible weather we’re having!’ to which he would
probably reply, ‘Awful! I wonder if it will ever stop raining.’ If it has been hot, you might
begin with, ‘How long do you think this weather’s going to last?’ with a probable answer, ‘It
can’t go on much longer, surely?’
So you have now dealt with the weather. What next? It is perfectly usual in British culture to
ask about a person’s job and give details of yours, and then the conversation should flow
quite easily. However, people do not usually talk about salaries. Another possibility is a
question about where the person lives.
People often used to ask other people about family life, but they are a bit more careful now in
asking about relationships. If a British person asks you the question, you can reply, of course.
There is a general rule in British customs that you do not ask a stranger about politics or
religion. Most people do not have any problems with differences in political or religious
views. Friendship is quite possible between people with very different views, but with
strangers, it is the custom not to raise the subject.

A. possible topics of conversation with a B. why some topics are not acceptable
stranger
C. how to develop a conversation with a D. the topics to avoid with a stranger
stranger
Question 32. What is a common way to start a conversation with a British person?

C. Discussing politics D. Talking about travel
Question 33. If the weather has been rainy, what might you say?
A. "What a beautiful day!" B. "What terrible weather we’re having!"
C. "Isn’t it too hot?" D. "Have you seen the news?"
Question 34. Which statement is NOT true according to the passage?
A. The writer suggests that culture affects conversation topics with a stranger.
B. It seems that weather is a common topic in Britain.
C. From the information in the text, ‘What do you do?’ is an acceptable question to a
stranger.
D. You can ask if a British stranger is a Muslim, according to the writer.
Question 35. What do we learn about topics of conversation in Britain?
A. People never talk about politics.
B. People never talk about religion.
C. Acceptable topics with strangers have changed.
