I’m a big fan of film featuring the spy James Bond. I’ve got most of them on DVD. We’ve
recently bought Quantum of Solace, in which Daniel Craig plays the part of Bond. I don’t know (18)
_________ – but it’s a great movie, anyway.
All the actors who’ve played James Bond have bee great, but Daniel Craig, who’s made lots of
other films, (19) _________ any of them. (20) _________, I think he’s the most perfect actor for the
role. He even does a few of the more dangerous things in the film himself, instead of (21) _________. I
did wonder sometimes whether he’d be clever enough to defeat the bad people – but I’m not going to
tell you the ending! The actress who stars with Craig gives a fantastic performance too – I loved (22)
_________!.
The director probably had a hard job making this Bon film as full of action as earlier ones. But
the excitement starts right at the beginning here, with a car chase along a mountain road, and plenty of
(23) _________, too – Bond leaping off tall buildings and so on. Unfortunately, I found the story
difficult to follow in places, and it also seemed to be over very quickly – it lasted under two hours. I
also felt there weren’t as many jokes as in the old Bond films. And where was all the ridiculous Bond
equipment – the underwater car or exploding watch that everyone laughed at? This is a more serious,

greenhouse. First, sunlight shines onto the Earth's surface, (25) ________ it is absorbed and then
radiates back into the atmosphere as heat. In the atmosphere, “greenhouse gases trap some of this heat,
and the rest escapes into space. The more greenhouse gases are in the atmosphere, the more heat gets
trapped.
Scientists have known about the greenhouse effect since 1824, when Joseph Fourier calculated
that the Earth would be much colder if it had no atmosphere. This greenhouse effect is what keeps the
Earth's climate (26) ________ . Without it, the Earth's surface would be an average of about 60 degrees

Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, or D to indicate the answer to each of the
question.
When lifestyle changes aren’t enough, the next step may be to take medicine. Your health care
provider can tell you about special drugs for overactive bladder (OAB).3 There are
several drug types that can relax the bladder muscle. These drugs, like anti-muscarinics and beta-3
agonists, can help stop your bladder from squeezing when it’s not full. Some are taken as pills, by
mouth. Others are gels or a sticky transdermal patch to give you the drug through your skin.
Anti-muscarinics and betta-3 adrenoceptor agonists can relax the bladder muscle and increase
the amount of urine your bladder can hold and empty. Combination drugs, like using both anti-
muscarinics and - betta-3 adrenoceptor agonists together may help control OAB when one option alone
isn’t working.
Your health care providers will want to know if the medicine works for you. They will check to
see if you get relief or if the drug causes problems, known as side effects. Some people get dry mouth
and dry eyes, constipation, or blurred vision. If one drug you try doesn’t work, your health care
provider may ask you to take different amounts, give you a different one to try, or have you try two
types together. Lifestyle changes and medicine at the same time help many people.

Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, or D to indicate the answer to each of the
question.
Like many emergency responders, Nicholas Groom is used to stress at work. On one hand, the
stress can be helpful. “I find that when attending a serious incident, it helps me to maintain focus on the
situation,” Nicholas Groom said. On the other hand, the work can be highly pressurised. “Too much
stress can impair your ability to make decisions,” he adds. And Groom is not alone in his complicated
relationship with stress.
Many people believe that that there should be a balanced amount of stress. In other words, not
too much stress so you’re not overwhelmed but not too little stress so you don’t feel unmotivated. After
all, some anxiety is motivating; think of the adrenaline before a deadline or the excitement before a
competition. Sports fans sometimes even talk about a “gene” in some athletes who seem to play best in
the decisive final moments of a match. Furthermore, many psychologists claim that performance in
many situations increases with stress up to a point. Of course, any stress can cause harm when it’s
prolonged. To take just one example, a long-term high heart rate is linked to cardiovascular diseases.
And additional stressors, such as financial pressures or psychiatric issues, clearly affect how
beneficially someone can respond to stress.
So is there a way to harness stress to your advantage while being mindful of its detrimental
long-term effects? One key factor is to avoid, whenever possible, the point when stress leads to mental
and physical collapse. Crystal Wernicke, 30, has always used stress as a motivator. But juggling
between parenting, a full-time job, a voluntary role and financial troubles at the same time became too
much and eventually led to a two-month period of illness. Another factor is the presence of control.
For those who feel powerless over their situation, stress is unlikely to be beneficial. But with some
autonomy over stressful tasks, we are better able to convert that pressure into higher performance.
When it comes to stress and how it affects your performance, it’s helpful to recognise the
variations in personality, type of stress and task that affect the level of pressure you are under, as well
as understanding tools you can use to control and harness that stress. Ultimately, it’s not helpful to take
a one-sided view, either demonising or glorifying stress. As James C Quick, a management professor at
the University of Texas, sums up: “Stress can be the kiss of death as well as the spice of life.”
34. Which of the following best serves as a title for the passage?
A. Balanced Can Be Helpful. Maintaining A Level Of Stress
B. Getting Rid Of Stress Completely Is The Key To Success
C. The Different Types Of Stress-Related Diseases
D. How Prolonged Stress Affects Your Mental Health
35. The word “detrimental” in paragraph 3 is opposite in meaning to _______.
A. positive B. unfortunate C. damaging D. inconvenient
36. Which of the following is NOT TRUE, according to paragraph 2?
 A. Excitement before a competition can motivate people.
B. A stressor can have negative impacts if it exists for too long.
C. Financial pressures can encourage us to work harder in life.
D. It is widely believed that a moderate level of stress is the best.
37. The phrase “sums up” in the last paragraph is closest in meaning to _______.
A. assumes B. concludes C. predicts D. proposes
38. The word “it” in the first paragraph refers to _______.
A. stress B. incident C. focus D. situation
39. Why was Crystal Vernicke sick for two months?
A. She didn’t have the money to take care of her health.
B. Financial pressures can encourage us to work harder in life.
C. She worked too hard for a very long period of time.
D. She spent time and effort on parenting instead of healthcare.
40. What can be inferred from the passage?
A. People consider emergency responders like Groom to be unusual.
B. Athletes always perform at their best towards the end of a match.
C. There is a limit beyond which stress is harmful for one's mental health.
D. The more stressful the situation, the more powerless people feel when facing it.

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 questions from 29 to 33.
Dogs originally came from wolves. Wolves look a lot like dogs, but they are bigger. They are also quite
fierce. At some point, some wolves changed through evolution. Some of them were smaller and
gentler. These nicer wolves were the first dogs. No one knows for sure when this happened or why.
Some people say it happened naturally over 50,000 years ago. Others say people made it happen
between 15 000 and 50 000 years ago.
However they came to be, people quickly saw that dogs were useful. Scientists who study humans say
the first tame dogs appeared with humans about 13,000 years ago in the Middle East. Not long after
there were dogs in Asia, Africa, Europe and eventually, North America. These dogs were probably
used mostly for hunting and traveling. They were also good companions.
Dogs were an important part of life in ancient Egypt. Egyptian dogs were used not only for hunting but
as guards and warriors as well. They believed the god that guarded hell was a dog. Ancient Egyptians
also named their pet dogs. Some popular names meant Brave One, Reliable, North-wind, Blacky, and
Useless.
Dogs were also good ancient Roman warriors. The Roman army used dogs all over Europe. Sometimes
the dogs were attack dogs, but other times the dogs were messengers.
There are many different kinds of dogs today. How could they all come from wolves? There are many
different explanations. Some scientists believe that dogs mixed with other animals from the Canidae
family. This includes coyotes, foxes and jackals. Most scientists also believe that evolution and
breeding influenced the variation. Later, people found breeds of dogs they liked and combined them to
make all new breeds. In this way. people are still helping new breeds to appear today!

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 questions from 34 to 40.
Many people see large urban cities as a wonder of human imagination and creativity. They represent
how far the human population has come in terms of community development. Despite its positive
things, there are also negatives from urbanization on the physical health of humans living.
As it would be expected, developing countries tend to see more negative physical health effects than
modern countries in regard to urbanization. One example of a developing country experiencing these
problems is China. China is a country that in the past 30-40 years went from being an agrarian based
 society to a significant industrialized country. This industrialization has in effect caused the need for
more centralized cities, centralized meaning having lots of jobs and living spaces within a close
proximity. In most recent decades, since China’s change to being more of an industrial based economy,
the country has experienced record high numbers of people migrating within its borders. In effect, the
number of cities with over 500,000 people has more than doubled. These migrations are typically of
people from rural areas of China moving to the new urban areas. Due to this large influx in the urban
population, there are many possibilities for health challenges among these people.
One very common and fairly obvious negative aspect of highly congested urban areas is air pollution. It
could include particulate matter, most commonly attributed to industrial plants and refineries waste, or
chemicals like CO2 or Methane. Due to a vast number of people in these urbanized cities, the air
pollution is known to be very extreme. These conditions can lead to many different health problems
such as: Asthma, cardiovascular problems or disease. When exposed to these conditions for a
prolonged period of time, one can experience even more detrimental health effects like: the
acceleration of aging, loss of lung capacity and health, being more susceptible to respiratory diseases,
and a shortened life span.
Another way that urbanization affects the populations’ health is people’s change in diet. For instance,
urban cities tend to have lots of accessible, quick, and easy to get food. This food is also more than
likely not as high quality as well as contains a large amount of sodium and sugar. Because this food is
so accessible, people tend to eat it more. This increase in consumption of low-quality food can then
lead to diabetes, hypertension, heart disease, obesity, or many other health conditions.
Question 34: Which of the following could be served as the best title for the passage?
A. Urban cities - The new opportunity for community development
B. Urbanization - Pros and cons
C. Urbanization - How people’s health is impacted?
D. Developing countries - The fastest urbanization

International Student Volunteers (ISV) is a California-based non-profit volunteer organization.
Since 2002, more than 35,000 students have joined ISV to volunteer and make a difference during their
summer break. One of ISV's programs, High School Program (HSP), combining volunteer work and
adventure travel, is an 18-day program for high school students aged 15-18. Since its first launch in
2007 in Australia for the first time, HSP has provided opportunities for students to make a difference
to communities and those in need while learning about responsibility and global issues.
Each group of students is led by a seasoned ISV leader and accompanied by a High School
leader (either teacher or coach) throughout their trip. HSP's regional staff are available to provide
timely help. Students can live, travel and learn in a fun environment. There are a lot of activities that
build good characters and inspire students to contribute their efforts and time to communities. For a
couple of days, students can visit local areas and learn about their cultures or difficulties faced by local
people. For the other days, they can join adventure activities to step out of their comfort zone and
challenge themselves.
High school students can choose among three countries - Costa Rica, Dominican Republic or
Thailand to spend their trip. HSP intends to expand their network to other countries. If you're a high
school student, give it a shot!

 Sylvia Earle is an underwater explorer and marine biologist who was born in the USA in 1935. She
became interested in the world’s oceans from an early age. As a child, she liked to stand on the beach
for hours and look at the sea, wondering what it must be like under the surface.
When she was 16, she finally got a chance to make her first dive, which motivated her to become
an underwater explorer. Since then, she has spent more than 6,500 hours under water, and has led more
than seventy expeditions worldwide. She has also made the deepest dive ever, reaching a record –
breaking depth of 381 metres.
In 1970, she became famous around the world when she became the caption of the first all- female
team to live under water. The team spent two weeks in an underwater “house”. The research they
carried out showed the damage that pollution was causing to marine life, and especially to coral reefs.
Her team also studied the problem of over- fishing. Fishing methods meant that people were catching
too many fish, Earle warned, and many species were in danger of becoming extinct.
Since then she has written several books and magazine articles in which she suggests ways of
reducing the damage that is being done to the world’s oceans. One way, she believes, is to reply on fish
farms for seafood, and reduce the amount of fishing that is done out at sea. Although she no longer eats
seafood herself, she realizes the importance it plays in our diets, It would be wrong to tell people they
should stop eating fish from the sea, she says. However, they need to reduce the impact they are having
on the ocean’s supplies.
Question 29: Which best serves as the title for the passage?
A. A new book on coral reefs B. Sylvia Earle, first female diver
C. Sylvia Earle, underwater hero D. A study on marine species
Question 30: The word “motivated” in paragraph 2 mostly means _______.
A. approved B. frightened C. inspired D. disappointed
Question 31: The word “that” in paragraph 3 refers to _______.
A. the research B. the team C. the house D. the damage
Question 32: According to the last paragraph, Earle believes that _______.
A. More books about the world’s oceans should be written
B. It is a good idea to reduce fishing at sea
C. Seafood is not important to human diets
D. Fish farms increase the damage done to the oceans
Question 33: According to the passage, which of the following is NOT mentioned in the passage as
Earle’s role?
A. teacher B. explorer C. biologist D. researcher

Volunteering offers many of the same social benefits, with the added bonus of helping others
and developing useful skills to put on your CV. Plus, students are in a unique position to help,
suggests Tom Fox. "They can take their enthusiasm and excitement for opportunities and share their
passions, subject knowledge and experience with people." The idea of giving up time for nothing
might seem impractical at first, especially once the pressures of study and coursework or exams
begin to mount up. However, Michelle Wright, CEO of charity support organization Cause4,
suggests seeing volunteering as a two-way street. "I think it is fine for undergraduates to approach
volunteering as a symbiotic relationship where doing good is just one part of the motivation for
reaching personal and professional goals."
Katerina Rudiger, head of skills and policy campaigns at the Chartered Institute of
Personnel and Development (CIPD), says: "Volunteering can be a valuable way of gaining that
experience, as well as building confidence, broadening your horizons, becoming a better team
player and developing those all- important 'employability skills' such as communication and
 decision making." Amanda Haig, graduate HR manager, agrees that volunteering can help your
employment prospects. "Volunteering can demonstrate positive personality traits and skill sets,
such as proactivity, and teamwork," she says.
A positive side-effect of volunteering is improving your time at university by getting
involved in the local community. Leaving the student bubble can make your time as an
undergraduate much more varied. At Bath Spa University, more than 1,000 students volunteered over
the past year, doing everything from working on local environmental projects to helping in schools or
assisting the elderly. ”Quite often there can be a divide between students and permanent residents,"
says students' union president Amy Dawson, "but if students invest a little time now, they will be
giving something back to the local community and will reap the benefits in the future."
“You might also find that volunteering helps your studies if you choose the right program. At
Lancaster, volunteering is linked into academic modules in some cases", explains Fox. "This has
multiple wins. Students get to apply their learning in the classroom and share their interests with
children in local schools or community organizations, while schools gain skilled students with a
passion for a subject that enthuses their pupils."
Question 34: What is the most suitable title for this reading?
A. Volunteering at university
B. Volunteering helps employment prospects
C. Students should take part in extracurricular activities to put it on CV
D. The virtues of volunteering
Question 35: Which of the following information is NOT mentioned in paragraph 1?
A. Many social benefits are provided by volunteering.
B. Students are likely to be enthusiastic for chances and share their interests with people.
C. Volunteering might increase the pressures of study and coursework or exam.
D. Michelle Wright recommends seeing volunteering as a two-way street.
Question 36: The word “gaining” in paragraph 2 can be replaced by____________.
A. getting B. making C. lacking D. taking
Question 37: Personality traits and skill sets include____________.
A. communication and decision – making B. proactivity and collaboration
C. proactivity and confidence D. passions, subject knowledge and experience.
Question 38: What does the word “side-effect” mean?
A. additional result that you did not expect or want
B. an extra good result
C. another side of a street
D. a two-way street
Question 39: What does the word "they" refer to in paragraph 3?
A. projects B. residents C. students D. benefits
Question 40: Which of the following most accurately reflects Fox’s explanation in the last paragraph?
A. Students at universities must join at least one activity in volunteer campaign at local schools.
B. Students at universities should join as many activities in volunteer campaign at local schools
as possible.
C. Students at universities who join volunteer work will gain a lot of purposes for the
community only.
D. Students at universities who join volunteer work will gain a lot of purposes for not only
themselves but also the community.

discrimination. We consider this to be a vital problem even nowadays. If in the past it was a major
problem for women to find a job and to prove that they can provide results equal to those provided by
men, in the present time the situation has quite changed. In addition, women have started getting
benefits and are sometimes the only potential employees for a given workplace. Women establish a
very strong emotional contact with the client; however, at the same time, (20) _______ their male
colleagues. Male workers, according to the opinion of most employers, are more rational. However,
nowadays, everything has changed, and men and women perform each other’s work excellent. We have
observed in practice this difference, when a job, considered to be a “male job”, (21) _______ a woman,
but she did not get the well- earned recognition in the company. One of the psychological reasons for
that, as we assume, is the incapability of the authorities of the company to deal with a stereotype and
change (22) _______ according to the changing world around them. Therefore, it is the lack of
flexibility. Women are, in fact, treated with higher appreciation in a decent company. Sometimes their
work may be viewed as just needing some correction (23) _______ the same work done by men that

 Using social media becomes a risk to adolescents more often than adults realise. Most risks fall
into these categories: peer-to-peer; lack of understanding of online privacy issues; and the influences of
advertisers. Although "online harassment" is often used interchangeably with the term "cyberbullying",
is actually different. Research suggests that online harassment is not as common as offline harassment,
and participation in social networking sites does not put most children at risk of online harassment.
Cyberbullying is using digital media to communicate false, embarrassing, or unfriendly information
about another person. It is the most common online risk for all teens, and can have profound emotional
effects.
Researchers have introduced a new phenomenon called "Facebook depression", defined as
depression that develops when youngsters spend a lot of time on social media sites and then begin to
show classic expression of depression. The power of the online world is thought to be a factor that may
cause depression in some adolescents. As with offline depression, young people who suffer from
Facebook depression are at risk of social isolation and sometimes turn to risky internet sites for "help".
The main risks to young people online today are each other, risks of improper use of technology, lack
of privacy, or posting false information about themselves or others. These types of behaviour threaten
their privacy.
When people go onto websites, they can leave evidence of their visits. This ongoing record of
online activity is called the "digital footprint". One of the biggest threats to young people on social
media sites is to their digital footprint and future reputations. Young people who lack an awareness of
privacy issues often post inappropriate material without understanding that "what goes online stays
online". As a result, future jobs and college acceptance may be put at risk of inexperienced clicks of the
mouse.

correct answer to each of the questions from 34 to 40.
 How do children learn about wildlife? And is what they learn the sort of thing they should be
learning? It is my belief that children should not just be acquiring knowledge of animals but also
developing attitudes and feelings towards them based on exposure to the real lives of animals in their
natural habitats. But is this happening?
Some research in this area indicates that it is not. Learning about animals in school is often
completely disconnected from the real lives of real animals, with the result that children often end up
with little or no understanding or lasting knowledge of them. They learn factual information about
animals, aimed at enabling them to identify them and have various abstract ideas about them, but that is
the extent of their learning. Children’s storybooks tend to personify animals as characters rather than
teach about them.
For direct contact with wild and international animals, the only opportunity most children have is
visiting a zoo. The educational benefit of this for children is often given as the main reason for doing it
but research has shown that zoo visits seldom add to children’s knowledge of animals - the animals are
simply like exhibits in a museum that the children look at without engaging with them as living
creatures. Children who belong to wildlife or environmental organizations or who watch wildlife TV
programmes, however, show significantly higher knowledge than any other group of children studied
in research. The studies show that if children learn about animals in their natural habitats, particularly
through wildlife-based activities, they know more about them than they do as a result of visiting zoos
or learning about them in the classroom.
Research has also been done into the attitudes of children towards animals. It shows that in
general terms, children form strong attachments to individual animals, usually their pets, but do not
have strong feelings for animals in general. This attitude is the norm regardless of the amount or kind
of learning about animals they have at school. However, those children who watch television wildlife
programs show an interest in and affection for wildlife in its natural environment, and their regard for
animals in general is higher.

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.
During the past half-century, our species has embarked on a remarkable social experiment. For the first
time in human history, great numbers of people - at all ages, in all places, of every political persuasion -
have begun settling down as singletons. Until the second half of the last century, most of us married
young and parted only at death. If death came early, we remarried quickly; if late, we moved in with
family, or they with us. Now we marry later. We divorce, and stay single for years or decades.
The rise of living alone has produced significant social benefits, too. Young and middle-aged solos
have helped to revitalise cities, because they are more likely to spend money, socialise and participate
in public life. Contemporary solo dwellers in the US are primarily women: about 18 million, compared
with 14 million men. The majority, more than 16 million, are middle-aged adults between the ages of
35 and 64. The elderly account for about 11 million of the total. Young adults between 18 and 34
number increased more than 5 million, compared with 500,000 in 1950, making them the fastest-
growing segment of the solo-dwelling population.
Despite fears that living alone may be environmentally unsustainable, solos tend to live in apartments
rather than in big houses, and in relatively green cities rather than in car-dependent suburbs. There's
good reason to believe that people who live alone in cities consume less energy than if they coupled up
and decamped to pursue a single-family home.
26. The best title for this passage could be _______.
A. the rise in divorce rates B. figures about solo dwellers in the US
C. the increase in solo living D. solos' tendency towards living in apartments
30. The word "decamped" in paragraph 3 means _______.
A. quitted B. settled down C. lived separately D. lived together
27. Which statement is TRUE according to the passage?
A. The rise of living alone has brought about significant social advantages.
B. People have begun settling down as singletons since the second half of the last century.
C. Solos tend to live big houses in car-dependent suburbs.
D. People now marry at young age and when they divorce, they remarry quickly.
29. In paragraph 2, all the following are the suggestions of the writer EXCEPT _________.
A. There are fewer middle-aged solos than the elderly who live alone.
B. The number of the young adult choosing to live alone has increased the most rapidly.
C. Solo dwellers have helped to renew their cities.
D. In the US, more females choose to live alone than males.
28. The word "them" in paragraph 2 refers to _______.
A. young adults B. the elderly C. middle-aged adults D. solo dwellers

correct answer to each of the questions from 6 to 12
 Three scales of temperature, each of which permits a precise measurement, are in current use:
the Fahrenheit, Celsius, and Kelvin scales. These three different temperature scales were each
developed by different people and have come to be used in different situations.
The scale that is most widely used by the general public in the United States is the Fahrenheit scale. In
1714, Daniel Gabriel Fahrenheit, a German physicist who was living in Holland and operating an
instrument business, developed a thermometer and the temperature scale that still carries his name. His
original scale had two fixed points: 0° was the lowest temperature and 96° was what he believed was
the normal temperature of the human body. Based on this scale, he calculated that the freezing point of
water was 32° in later studies, it was determined that the boiling point of water was 212°. The
Fahrenheit scale came to be accepted as the standard measure of temperature in a number of countries.
Today, however, the United States is the only major country in the world that still uses the Fahrenheit
scale.
The scale that is in use in many other countries is the Celsius scale. Anders Celsius, a Swedish
astronomer, developed a thermometer in 1741 that based temperatures on the freezing and boiling
temperatures of water. On the thermometer that Celsius developed, however, 0° was used to indicate
the boiling temperature of water, and 100° was used to indicate the freezing temperature of water. After
his death, the scale was reversed by a friend, the biologist Carl von Linne. On the new scale after the
reversal by von Linne, 0° indicated the freezing temperature of water, and 100° indicated the boiling
temperature of water. At around the same time, a similar thermometer was being developed in France.
After the French Revolution, the scale developed in France was adopted as part of the metric system in
that country under the name centigrade, which means "a hundred units," and from there it spread
worldwide. In 1948, an international agreement was made to rename the centigrade scale the Celsius
scale in honor of the scientist who was first known to use a 100-degree scale, though it should be
remembered that the scale that Celsius actually used himself was the reverse of today's scale.
A third scale, the Kelvin scale, is generally used today for scientific purposes. This scale was
first suggested in 1854 by two English physicists: William Thomson, Lord Kelvin and James Prescott
Joule. The Kelvin scale defines 0° as absolute zero, the temperature at which all atomic and molecular
motion theoretically stops, and 100° separates the freezing point and boiling point of water, just as it
does on the Celsius scale. On the Kelvin scale, with 0° equal to absolute zero, water freezes at 273°,
and water boils at a temperature 100° higher. The Kelvin scale is well suited to some areas of scientific
study because it does not have any negative values, yet it still maintains the 100° difference between
the freezing point and boiling point of water that the Celsius scale has and can thus easily be converted
to the Celsius scale by merely subtracting 273° from the temperature on the Kelvin scale.
34. Which of the following can be the best title of the passage?
A. Temperature scales in use today. B. Comparison of temperature scales.
C. The origin of thermometers. D. The most common temperature scale.
35. The word fixed in paragraph 2 could best be replaced by______.
A. ordered B. repaired C. established D. attached
36. According to the passage, a temperature of 50° would be equal to_______.
A. 223⁰ on the Kelvin scale B. 273⁰ on the Kelvin scale
C. 323⁰ on the Kelvin scale D. 373⁰ on the Kelvin scale
35. The word adopted in paragraph 3 could best be replaced by______.
A. taken on B. brought up C. looked upon D. turned down
38. The word it in paragraph 4 refers to_______.
A. the Kelvin scale B. a negative value
C. a scientific research D. 100º difference
37. Which of the following is NOT true about the first Celsius scale, according to the passage?
A. It was developed by an astronomer from Sweden.
B. It came into existence in the eighteenth century.
C. One hundred degrees separated the freezing and boiling temperatures of water on it.
D. On it, 0º indicated the temperature at which water freezes.
40. Which of the following can be inferred from the passage?
A. The Kelvin scale enjoys the largest popularity in the world today.
B. The Celsius scale in use today is actually the original version.
C. In 1948, nations agreed to name the centigrade scale after the man who developed its earlier
version.
D. Kelvin, Fahrenheit and Celsius worked in cooperation to develop three thermometers.
