Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C or D to indicate the correct answer to each of
the questions from 30 to 34
   In today's competitive world, what responsible parent would not want to give their children the best
possible start in life? For this reason, many parents want their children, often as young as ten months old,
to become familiar with computers. They seem to think that if their children grow up with computers,
they will be better equipped to face the challenges of the future.
   No one has proved that computers make children more creative or more intelligent. The truth may even
be the opposite. Educational psychologists claim that too much exposure to computers, especially for the
very young, may negatively affect normal brain development. Children gain valuable experience of the
world from their interaction with physical objects. Ten-month-old babies may benefit more from bumping
their heads or putting various objects in their mouths than they will from staring at eye-catching cartoons.
A four-year old child can improve hand-eye coordination and understand cause and effect better by
experimenting with a crayon than by moving a cursor around a computer screen. So, as educational
psychologists suggest, instead of government funding going to more and more computer classes, it might
be better to devote resources to music and art programs.
   It is ludicrous to think that children will fall behind if they are not exposed to computers from an early
age. Time is too precious to spend with a "mouse". Now is the time when they should be out there learning
to ride a bike. There will be time later on for them to start banging away at keyboards.
Question 30. Why do parents want their children to learn how to use a computer from an early age?
   A. Because they are afraid their children will become competitive.
   B. Because they want their children to be well prepared for their future.
   C. Because this is what all the other parents seem to do.
   D. Because they believe their children will have difficulty learning to use one if they don't start early.
Question 31. Children who spend a lot of time on their computers___________
   A. do not necessarily make more progress than those who don't.
   B. tend to like music and art more than those who don't.
   C. will suffer from brain damage.
   D. tend to have more accidents than those who don't.
Question 32. The author implies that children learn better___________
   A. after they have developed hand-eye coordination
   B. when they use a computer
   C. as they get older
   D. when they hold and feel things around them
Question 33. What would be an appropriate title for this passage?
   A. Never too early to start                       B. Let kids be kids
   C. Computers in schools                           D. More computers mean brighter future
Question 34. What does the word "ludicrous" in the third paragraph mean?
   A. ridiculous            B. humorous              C. ironic               D. sensible

Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, or D to indicate the correct answer to each of
the questions from 35 to 42
   No sooner had the first intrepid male aviators safely returned to Earth than it seemed that women, too,
had been smitten by an urge to fly. From mere spectators, they became willing passengers and finally
pilots in their own right, plotting their skills and daring line against the hazards of the air and the
skepticism of their male counterparts. In doing so they enlarged the traditional bounds of a women's
world, won for their sex a new sense of competence and achievement, and contributed handsomely to the
progress of aviation.
   But recognition of their abilities did not come easily. "Men do not believe us capable.” The famed
aviator Amelia Earhart once remarked to a friend. “Because we are women, seldom are we trusted to do
an efficient job.” Indeed old attitudes died hard: when Charles Lindbergh visited the Soviet Union in 1938
with his wife, Anne herself a pilot and gifted proponent of aviation - he was astonished to discover both
men and women flying in the Soviet Air Force.
   Such conventional wisdom made it difficult for women to raise money for the up-to-date equipment
they needed to compete on an equal basis with men. Yet they did compete, and often they triumphed
finally despite the odds.
   Ruth Law, whose 590 - mile flight from Chicago to Hornell, New York, set a new nonstop distance
record in 1916, exemplified the resourcefulness and grit demanded of any woman who wanted to fly. And
when she addressed the Aero Club of America after completing her historic journey, her plainspoken
words testified to a universal human motivation that was unaffected by gender: “My flight was done with
no expectation of reward." she declared, “just purely for the love of accomplishment”

   D. It could not be trusted to do an efficient job.
