II. Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, or D to indicate the correct answer to each
of the questions.
A.
Is the generation gap in America no longer a severe problem as it used to be? Dating back to the
1960s when teenagers tended to lash out the values and goals of their parents as well as rebel against the
authority figures, the incendiary conflicts between older and younger generations increased sharply. It’s
because teenagers' world wasn’t any longer limited in a narrow society that wasn’t mobile, and instead of
going to church every weekend, they were exposed to various forms of social media like television and
radios. They got access to huge sources of new ideas, which liberated them from old-fashioned and boring
lifestyles whereas many older people were conservative and didn’t accept differences disturbing their
normal life.
Over time, however, the tension between generations has been alleviated due to the improved mutual
understanding of baby boomers, Millennials and even Zillennials in many fields of life. According to recent
research, the largest generational discrepancies between young and old in the United States are the use of
technology and taste in music.
Nevertheless, in terms of technological use, many older people gradually learn how to use a laptop or
smartphone to surf the Internet from their children and especially their grandchildren due to their recognition
of huge technological benefits. Regarding the musical differences, unlike in the past, older generations
nowadays appear to give fewer critical remarks on what type of music teens should listen to and begin to
accept the variety of music tastes when living under the same roofs.
Question 1: What is the passage mainly about?
A. The development of the generation gap in America nowadays.
B. The alleviation of the generation gap in America nowadays.
C. The eradication of the generation gap in America in the past.

C. Parents. D. Older generations
Question 3: According to the passage, what types of social media provided young people with new ideas in
the 1960s?
A. The Internet and television. B. The Internet and radios.
C. The television and printed newspaper. D. The television and radios.
Question 4. Why did the older generation refuse to access new things?
A. Because they thought those things were tedious.
B. Because they loved to go to church every weekend.
C. Because they didn’t want to change their normal life.
D. Because they weren’t able to learn technological devices.
Question 5: What can be inferred from the passage?
A. Nowadays there is no longer a generation gap.
B. The generation gap didn’t remain after the 1960s.
C. Teaching older people to use modern devices can bridge the gap between generations.
D. Younger Americans are forced to change their taste in music nowadays.

B. NEW CAPITAL
When the new state of Pakistan was founded in 1947, Karachi acted as the capital city. However, it
was difficult for Karachi to remain in this role due to a number of drawbacks such as the climate and the
state of the existing buildings. Rather than try to overcome these drawbacks, the government decided to
create a new capital city. In 1959, a commission was established to investigate the possible locations of this
new city. The advisor appointed to the commission was Dr Doxiadis, a famous architect and city planner.
Dr Doxiadis and his colleagues looked at the various locations. They then produced a report
suggesting two possible areas: one just outside Karachi and the other to the north of Rawalpindi. Both
locations had advantages as well as disadvantages. Which site was it to be?
The choice between these two options was made after consideration of many factors, such as
transportation, the availabilities of water, economic factors, and factors of national interest. Finally, the site
north of Rawalpindi was chosen and on the 24th February 1960, the new capital was given the name of
‘Islamabad’ and a master plan was drawn up. This master plan divided the area into three different sections:
Islamabad itself, neighbouring Rawalpindi, and the national park.
Each of these three sections had a different role. Islamabad would act as the national's capital and
would serve its administrative and cultural needs, whereas Rawalpindi would remain the regional centre
with industry and commerce. The third piece of the plan, the national park, was planned to provide space for
education, recreation, and agriculture.
Today Islamabad is a thriving city of about 1 million people. It offers a healthy a pollution-free
atmosphere, plenty of water, and many green spaces. Guide tree-lined streets, elegant public buildings, and
well-organised bazaars and shopping centres. The new capital is a superb example of good urban planning.
