PASSAGE 1: Read the text below and choose the best answer to each question
INTERNET JOBS
Contrary to popular belief, one does not have to be a trained programmer to work online. Of
course, there are plenty of jobs available for people with high-tech computer skills, but the
growth of new media has opened up a wide range of Internet career opportunities requiring only a
minimal level of technical expertise. Probably one of the most well-known online job
opportunities is the job of Webmaster. However, it is hard to define one basic job description for
this position. The qualifications and responsibilities depend on what tasks a particular
organization needs a Webmaster to perform.
To specify the job description of a Webmaster, one needs to identify the hardware and software
the website the Webmaster will manage is running on. Different types of hardware and software
require different skill sets to manage them. Another key factor is whether the website will be
running internally or externally (renting shared space on the company servers). Finally, the
responsibilities of a webmaster also depend on whether he or she will be working independently,
or whether the firm will provide people to help. All of these factors need to be considered before
one can create an accurate webmaster job description. Webmaster is one type of Internet career
requiring in-depth knowledge of the latest computer applications. However, there are also online
jobs available for which traditional skills remain in high demand. Content jobs require excellent
writing skills and a good sense of the web as a “new media’.
The term “new media” is difficult to define because it compasses a constantly growing set of new
technologies and skills. Specifically, it includes websites, email, internet technology, CD-ROM,
DVD, streaming audio and video, interactive multimedia presentations, e-books, digital music,
computer illustration, video games, virtual reality, and computer artistry.
Additionally, many of today’s Internet careers are becoming paid-by-the-job professions. With
many companies having to downsize in tough economic items, the outsourcing and contracting of
freelance workers online has become common business practice. The Internet provides an infinite
pool of buyers from around the world with whom freelancers can contract their services. An
added benefit to such online jobs is that freelancers are able to work on projects with companies
outside their own country of residence.
How much can a person make in these kinds of careers? As with many questions related to
today’s evolving technology, there is no simple answer. There are many companies willing to pay
people with Internet skills salaries well over $70,000 a year. Generally, webmasters start at about
$30,000 per year, but salaries can vary greatly. Freelance writers working online have been
known to make between $40,000 to $70,000 a year.

41. The word “identify” in paragraph 2 is closest in meaning to __________

42. The word “them” in paragraph 2 refers to _________.
A. companies B. new job opportunities

D. “New media” is not easy to define.
46. Which of the followings is not mentioned as part of the “new media”?

PASSAGE 2: Read the text below and choose the best answer to each question
LIFE SUCCESS AND SATISFACTION
Life satisfaction, which can be defined as general happiness or well being, is related to several
demographic and personal qualities. The factor of age is important because the elements that
make up life satisfaction may differ from one age to the next. Income is more likely to predict life
satisfaction among middle-aged and older adults than among young adults. Health is a more
significant predictor of happiness among older adults than among the young or the middle-aged.
However, average levels of life satisfaction do not change significantly with age. Generally
speaking, older adults are as satisfied with their lives as are younger or middle-aged adults.
There is no single element that guarantees high life satisfaction for everyone who possesses it.
Happiness seems to consist of many things that each person weighs differently, such as income,
education, work, and relationship. However, certain factors are reliable predictors of life
satisfaction. One such predictor is health, especially one’s perception of one’s own health rather
than a doctor’s objective health assessment. Another predictor of life satisfaction is a feeling of
being in charge of one’s own life and a sense of authority over one’s own decisions. Adults who
feel that they have some choices and options are generally happier than those who feel that their
lives are controlled by others or by fate or chance. For example, older adults who experience
financial strain feel less life satisfaction mainly because the problem signals a loss of control over
their lives.
The largest predictor of life satisfaction appears to be the adequacy of social relationships,
especially marriage and family relationships. The perceived quality rather than the quantity of
social interactions is most strongly related to happiness. Satisfaction with one’s close personal
relationships is more closely linked to overall life satisfaction than either demographic factors or
satisfaction with other key aspects of adult life such as occupation. This is true even among
highly educated men, who typically have a very high commitment to their work. The quality of
social support available in one’s key relationships affects the ability to handle stress and life
changes as well as one’s ongoing level of life satisfaction.
Studies suggest that family background and early-adulthood resources are predictors of
psychological health or success at midlife. People who age well are those who start out well. One
study showed that the happiest and most successful middle-aged adults and grown up in warm,
supportive, intellectually stimulating families. Well-adjusted or successful middle-aged adults
began adulthood with more personal resources, including better psychological and physical
health at college age. They also had been practical and well organized in college and had shown
greater intellectual competence.
However, no measure of early family environment or early-adult competence remained a
significant predictor of psychological well being at the end of middle age. One study of men
revealed that at the age of 65, there were no childhood or early-adulthood characteristics that
distinguished between men who had turned out well and those who had not. However, what did
predict success and well being at age 65 was the men’s health and adjustment at midlife. These
results suggest that a successful adult life is not something preordained from childhood or early
adulthood but rather something created out of the opportunities available over the course of one’s
life. Late-life success is related more directly to midlife qualities or experiences. People who start
out with certain advantages have a greater chance of experiencing further advantages; however, it
is what one does with the experiences – both positive and negative – that determines long-term
life satisfaction. The choices that people make in early adulthood help shape who they are at
midlife, and those midlife qualities in turn influence who they become later in life.

51. What point does the author make about the relationship of age to life satisfaction?
A. Age is the primary factor in determining life satisfaction.
B. The factors that determine life satisfaction are the same at every age.
C. Average levels of life satisfaction are similar for every age group.
D. Young adults are more satisfied with their lives than older adults are.
52. According to the passage, all of the following are predictors of life satisfaction EXCEPT
A. health B. age C. control of own life D. family
relationships
53. The phrase “in charge of” in paragraph 2 is closest in meaning to
A. worried about B. responsible for C. lucky in D. controlled by
54. The word “problem” in paragraph 2 refers to
A. authority B. fate or chance C. financial strain D. less life satisfaction
55. The word “adequacy” in paragraph 3 is closet in meaning to
A. knowledge B. appearance C. memory D. quality
56. What can be inferred from paragraph 3 about social relationships?
A. Close social relationships are likely to influence long-term health and happiness.
B. People with good family relationships also have good social relationships at work.
C. Highly educated people usually have many different kinds of social relationships.
D. The number of social relationships is more important than the type of relationship.
57. What does the author say about people who are well adjusted and successful at midlife?
A. They are more satisfied with their lives than young adults are.
B. They perceive themselves as successful even when it is not true.
C. They are generally better adjusted than their parents were.
D. They probably had positive personal qualities as young adults.
58. Why does the author discuss a study of men in paragraph 5?
A. To illustrate a point about satisfaction late in life
B. To explain differences among men of different ages
C. To emphasize the importance of family relationships
D. To argue for more psychological studies about men
59. The word “preordained” in paragraph 5 is closet meaning to
A. appreciated B. forgotten C. determined D. organized
60. It can be inferred from paragraph 5 that the author most likely believes which of the
following about long-term life satisfaction?
A. It is affected by the decisions made throughout adulthood.
B. It is measured differently for men and for women.
C. It is directly related to having advantages during childhood.
D. It is purely the result of chance and cannot be predicted.

III. ERROR IDENTIFICATION (10PTS)


There are ten mistakes in the following paragraph. Identify and correct them
Line 1 The horse and carriage is a thing of the past, but love and marriage are still with us
Line 2 and still closely interrelating. Most American marriages, particular first marriages
Line 3 uniting young people, are the result of mutual attraction and affection rather with
Line 4 practical considerations.
Line 5 In the United States, parents do not arrange marriages for their children.
Line 6 Teenagers begin date in high school and usually find mates through their own
Line 7 academic and social contacts. Though young people feel free to choose their
Line 8 friends from different groups, almost choose a mate of similar background. This is
Line 9 due partly to parental guidance. Parents cannot select spouses for their children,
Line 10 but they can usually influence choices by voicing disapproval for someone they
Line 11 consider suitable.
Line 12 However, marriages of members of different groups (interclass, interfaith, and
Line 13 interracial marriages) are increasing, probably because of the greater mobile of
Line 14 today's youth and the fact that they are restricted by fewer prejudices as their
Line 15 parents. Many young people leave their hometowns to attend college, serve in
Line 16 armed forces, or pursue a career in a bigger city. One away from home and family,
they are more likely to date and marry outside their own social group.
