FAMILY HISTORY

In an age which technology is developed -> developing faster than ever before, many people
are being attracted by - to the idea of looking back into the past. One way they can make ->
do this is by investigating their own family history. They can try to find out more about what
-> where their families came from and what they did. This is now a fast-growing hobby,
especially in countries with a fairly short history, alike -> like Australia and the United
States. It is one thing to spend some time going through a book on family history and to take
-> make the decision to investigate your own family’s past. It is quite another to carry out the
research work successfully. It is easy to set about it in a disorganizing -> disorganized way
and cause yourself many problems which could have been avoided with a little forward
planning.
If your own family stories tell you that you are connected with a famous character , whether
hero or criminal , do not let this idea take over your research. Just treat it as an interesting
possibility. A simple system for collecting and storing your information will be adequate to
start with; a -> the more complex one may only get in your way. The most important thing,
though, is to get started. Who knows what you might find ?

PART C. READING

Stressful situations that (1)________ almost everyday in life seem to be unavoidable.

crossword puzzle, listen to your favorite music or even compose a menu for your Sunday
dinner.
In fact, whatever way you (7)________ to the annoying situation, you can exert no impact on

occurrence like that with a deal of composure and sensibility adds much more strain to your
life and in this way puts your well – being in (9)_________. Surprisingly, it is seemingly

health disorders rather than our isolated tragedies however painful they may be.

II. Read the following passage and choose the correct answer

Bacteria are extremely small living things. While we measure our own sizes in inches or
centimetres, bacterial size is measured in microns. One micron is a thousandth of a
millimetre; a pinhead is about a millimetre across. Rod-shaped bacteria are usually from two
to four microns long,while rounded ones are generally one micron in diametre. Thus if you
enlarged a rounded bacterium a thousand times, it would be just about the size of a pinhead.
An adult human magnified by the same amount would be over a mile (1.6 kilometres) tall.

            Even with an ordinary microscope, you must look closely to see bacteria. Using a
magnification of 100 times, one finds that bacteria are barely visible as tiny rods or dots. One
cannot make out anything of their structure. Using special stains, one can see that some
bacteria have attached to them wavy - looking "hairs" called flagella. Others have only
one flagellum. The flagella rotate, pushing the bacteria though the water. Many bacteria lack
flagella and cannot move about by their own power while others can glide along over
surfaces by some little understood mechanism.

            From the bacterial point of view, the world is a very different place from what it is to
humans. To a bacterium, water is as thick as molasses is to us. Bacteria are so small that they
are influenced by the movements of the chemical molecules around them. Bacteria under the
microscope, even those with no flagella, often bounce about in the water. This is because
they collide with the water molecules and are pushed this way and that. Molecules move so
rapidly that within a tenth of a second, the molecules around a bacterium have all been
replaced by new ones. Even bacteria without flagella are thus constantly exposed to a
changing environment.

 Question 1: Which of the following is the main topic of the passage?

A. The characteristics of bacteria                B. How bacteria reproduce

C. The various functions of bacteria           D. How bacteria contribute to disease


Question 2: Bacteria are measured in_______.

A. inches         B. centimeters                        C. microns                  D. millimeters

Question 3: Which of the following is the smallest?

A. A pinhead                                                  B. A rounded bacterium

C. A microscope                                             D. A rod-shaped bacterium

Question 4: According to the passage, someone who examines bacteria using only a
microscope that magnifies 100 times would see_______.

A. tiny dots         B. small “hairs”      C. large rods  D. detailed structures

Question 5: The relationship between a bacterium and its flagella is most nearly analogous
to which of the following?

A. A rider jumping on a horse's back         B. A ball being hit by a bat

C. A boat powered by a motor                    D. A door closed by a gust of wind

1. A 2. C 3. B 4. A 5. C

III. Insert ONE word to complete the passage

ENJOY THE BENEFITS OF STRESS !

 Are you looking forward to another busy week ? You should be according to some experts.
They argue that the stress encoutered in our daily lives is not only good for us, but essential
to survival. They pay that the respnse to (1)....................,which creates a chemical called
adrenal in, helps the mind and body to act quickly (2)....................... emergencies. Animals
and human beings use it to meet the hostile conditions which exist o the planet.

    Whilst nobody denies the pressures of everyday life, what is surprising is that we are yet
to develop successful ways of dealing with them.(3)................... the experts consider the
current strategies to be inadequate and often dangerous. They believe that (4)................... of
trying to manage our response to stress with drugs or relaxation techniques, we must exploit.
Apparently, research shows that people (5).................. create conditons of stress for
(6)................. by doing exciting and risky sports or looking for challenges, cope much better
with life's problems. Activities of this type have been shown to create a lot of emotion:
people may actually cry or feel extremely uncomfortable. But there is a point
(7)..................... which they realise thay have succeeded and know that it was a positive
experience. This is because we learn through challenge and difficulty. That's (8)................
we get our wisdom. Few of us unfortuantely, understand this fact. For example, many people
believe they (9)..................... from stress at work, and take time off as a result. Yet it has
been found in some companies that by far (10)....................... healthiest people are those with
the most responsibility. So next time you're in a stressful situation, just remmber that it will
be a positive learning experience and could also benefit your health!

IV. You are going to read an article about literature and the Internet. Seven sentences
have been removed from the article. Choose from the sentences A-H the one which fi ts
each gap (1-7). There is one extra sentence which you do not need to use.

Since the Internet is a library with no staff, every user must know the basic standards that
librarians, copy editors, and publishers use. These are simple to state, but not always so easy
to apply, since they require either knowing the subject well or looking for corroboration in
an independent source, something many of us are unwilling to do because it takes time. (1)
_______ F _________. Incorrect dates, wrong page numbers in a reference to a printed text,
names misspelled are among the most common errors. Misinformation and typographical
errors are common and it can be dangerous to use any site lacking a very solid pedigree of
factual information. Besides this, you should consider currency which is more important in
literary studies than many of us realize: (2) ______ B __________. Many Shakespeare plays
reproduced on the Internet, for example, fail to explain which version is being reproduced
and why, so that you are not told the kind of revision which has been made. Once you have
all this clear in your mind, you can investigate whether the material is complete or not. (3)
____ H ____________. The fi rst is often a problem with amateur sites where skimpy
biographies and interpretive essays based on limited knowledge are common. The second
problem, instead, is quite typical of ambitious sites. Since many sites go public before being
fi nished, users should not trust menus without clicking through several layers. Take note:
(4) ______ D __________. A good net surfer, then, should know whether a site is properly
documented. Authors of headnotes, chronologies, and critical essays should be identifi ed.
You should also be given some information about who digitized the text and by what
method. (5) _______ G _________. With experience, most internet users become more
discriminating, looking for and bookmarking only the best sites. (6) ________ A _________:
some are comprehensive, some are authored by experts in the fi eld, others are rich with hard
to fi nd material, others may be good for the classroom, and still others may be useful for a
particular project. In addition to all this, one should consider also some technological
standards and know whether all the links work and printing and downloading are easy: for
many collecting such scraps of ideas and pieces of paper and spreading them out on a table is
essential and satisfying. Easy printing and downloading accommodate such habits and
suggest that a site is responsive to the needs of readers, writers, teachers, students and
scholars who work in a wide variety of ways on an infi nite number of projects. Although
users may become quite good at evaluating sites, evaluations by experts can help us all fi nd
the best sites and also help us develop and fi ne-tune our own standards. (7) _____ C _____.
As with reviews, awards and ratings may become useful in the near future, but they are not
yet reliable indications of a truly accurate, thorough, and worthy literature site. (Adapted
from S. Browner-S. Pulsford-R. Sears, Literature and the Internet. A Guide for Students,
Teachers, and Scholars, Garland Publishing, New York and London, 2000, pp.115-127.)
A excellent sites vary in what they do well
B if you seek a literary text on the web, you may want to investigate the integrity of the
text itself
C reviews of websites will become a reliable way of identifying good sites
D site maps and menus may indicate what will be there in the future and not what is there
now
E both should be current and trouble free
F the fi rst thing to know is whether the information a site gives you is accurate or not
G a site with little or no documentation should be used with caution
H two problems are common: incomplete information and incomplete sites
