The first question to ask about fiction is: Why bother
to read it? With life as short as it is, with so many
pressing demands on our time, with books of
information, instruction and discussion waiting to be
read, why should we spend precious time on works
of fiction? The eternal answers to this question are
two: enjoyment and understanding. Since the
invention of language, men have taken pleasure in
following and participating in the imaginary
adventures and imaginary experiences of imaginary
people. Whatever serves to make life less tedious,
to make the hours pass more quickly and
pleasurably, surely needs nothing else to
recommend it. Enjoyment is the first aim and
justification of reading fiction.
1.) One point emphasized in the passage is that ---.
A) life, since it is short, shouldnt be wasted in trivial
reading
B) informative books, as opposed to fiction, are
what one should read
C) non-fictional books are the only ones worth
reading
D) the reading of fiction provides people with a great
deal of enjoyment
E) through fiction our knowledge of other people is
distorted
2. )According to the passage, fiction has, from
very early times, ----.
A) always been regarded as superior to other kinds
of writing
B) usually been limited to the description of human
adventures
C) been regarded as harmful to the development of
man
D) been a reliable source for the instruction of man
E) had a great appeal for man
3.) In the passage, books ----.
A) that deal with imaginary situations are considered
to be a waste of time
B) that give us information are regarded as the best
kind
C) are divided into two main kinds: fictional and nonfictional
D) that deal with human experiences are classed as
books of instruction
E) are regarded merely as a means to make time
pass enjoyably

The invention of the printing press during the
Renaissance, together with improved methods of
manufacturing paper, made possible the rapid
spread of knowledge. In 1476, William Caxton set
up England.s first printing press at Westminster, a
part
of London. By 1640, that press and others had
printed more than 26,000 different works and
editions. With the printing press and the increased
availability of books, literacy increased. It is

Explaining science seems to come naturally to
Charlotte, who is a young BBC presenter. She is
rapidly becoming quite a star because her passion
for wildlife shows vividly on TV. And she's every bit
as enthusiastic in person. I caught up with her in
Bristol, where she works for the BBC's Wildlife Unit.
She talked about her latest project over tea and
biscuits, speaking softly when reflecting on her
answers and at times appearing astonished at the
animals' amazing behaviour which she
confronted on her travels. She clearly
enjoyed her latest project, Talking With
Animals, which investigates the extremely
different ways in which animals communicate with
each other.
1.) It is clear from the passage that
Charlotte
A. who is dedicated to her work, is
extremely pleased with her new
project

just started, is anxious to please her
viewers

recently taken an interest in wildlife
D. a newly-recruited BBC presenter, has
been reluctant to accept wildlife
programmes

been asuccess, has nevertheless
received some harsh criticism
2.) We understand from the passage that
Charlotte's current project ---A. involved a great deal of travel in
harsh environments
B. has been turned down by the BBC
C. is concerned with how animals
manage to communicate with each
other
D. does not interest her as much as
some of her earlier ones did

fame as a TV presenter ---A. is not well-deserved though all of her
projects have been very demanding
B. has surprised everyone at the BBC
C. is largely due to the success of her
project, Talking With Animals

Crows are black birds, and they are very ugly. But
they are also very clever. Or perhaps, since they
have extremely long lives, they have time in which
to collect a great deal of information. For instance,
they have developed an excellent method of getting
walnuts out of their shells. The first stage was to
drop them from a height. If they fell on a soft surface
they didnt break; if they fell on a hard surface like a
road, they often did. If they didnt, however, passing
cars would crush the walnuts. But one problem
remained.
It is difficult for a crow to eat crushed walnuts when
a lot of cars are passing. In the end, this problem,
too, was solved. They started to drop the walnuts
just
ahead of the traffic lights.
7.) From the passage, we learn ----.
A) all about the life-style of the crow
B) why the crow lives longer than most other birds
C) how the crow manages to eat the soft, inside part
of the walnut

8.) According to the passage, crows ----.
A) have developed various ingenious ways to break
walnuts
B) are a major threat to safety on roads
C) are mostly killed by passing cars while they are
feeding
D) avoid eating walnuts even though they are
crushed by cars
E) are generally attracted by the traffic lights
because of their colours
9.) The passage suggests that the long natural
lifespan of the crow ----.
A) is the result of its healthy eating habits
B) is necessary since so many are killed on the
roads
C) is important because it enables them to collect
and test a lot of facts
D) gives them an advantage over other birds
E) has never been proved
