I was driving along the coast road when the car suddenly lurched to one side.
At first, I thought a tyre had gone, but then I saw telegraph poles collapsing like matchsticks.
The rocks came tumbling across the road, and I had to abandon my car.
When I got back to town, well, as I said, there wasn’t much left.

Human body is made up of countless million of cells. Food is needed to build up new cells and replacethe worn out.
However, the food we take must be changed into substances that can be carried in the blood to the places where they are
needed. This process is called digestion.
The first digestive process take place in the mouth. The food we eat is broken up into small pieces by the action of teeth,
mixed with saliva containing digestive juices which moisten the food, so that it can be swallowed easily.
From the mouth, food passes through the esophagus-the food passage-into the stomach. Here the food is mixed with
the juices secreted by the cells in the stomach for several hours. Then the food enters the small intestine. All the time the
muscular wall of intestine are squeezing, mixing and moving the food onwards.
In a few hours, the food changes into acids. The acids are soon absorbed by the villi (microscopic branch projection from
the intestine walls) and passed into blood stream.

Diazinon and dursban are chemicals used on lawns, gardens, agriculture crops and livestock as an insecticide
(for worms). They are banned for several good reasons.
Firstly, they cause nausea, dizziness, burning sensation, headaches, blurred visions, stomach and muscle
cramp, twitching, diarrhea, aching joints, disorientation and an inability to concentrate.
Secondly, these chemicals cause human and animal birth defects In many areas of the human body including
the brain, nervous system, teeth, eyes, ears, nipples and genitals. They can also cause profound growth and
mental retardation when pregnant mothers are exposed. This may affect on lower birth weights of infants if
mothers are exposed before and during pregnancy, and this is associated with lower IQs.
Finally, residues, of course, are on some foods-up to 14 days on lettuce, for example-and the chemical also
seeps into the nearby water.
Therefore, the government must be urged to keep the safety factor of pesticides paramount in their thinking.
Children are so much more sensitive than adults to the toxic effects of chemicals.

A. Allow farmers to use diazinon and dursband.

E. Subsidize farmers with safe pesticides.
12. “children are so much more sensitive than adults to the toxic effects of chemicals.” What does the statement
mean?
A. We should protect our children from dangerous chemicals.
B. Children are resistant to several chemicals.
C. Parents should not be worried about their children’s health.
D. The government should pay more attention to adults than to children.
E. Children have greater immunity than adults.
Technique of Teaching
The silent way is one of the effective language teaching techniques. It is a pedagogical approach language
teaching based on the premise that a teacher should be as silent as possible in a classroom (about 90% of the
time). The learners, then, are encouraged to produce as much language as possible. They have much time
both to be exposed to the language and to perform practice.
The learning hypothesis behind the silent way is that learning is facilitated if the learners discover or create
rather that remember and repeat what is to be learned. Also, students learn more effectively through problem
solving involving the target language. It views language learning as a creative, problem-solving and
discovering activity in which the learner is a principal actor rather that a bench-bound listener.
Basically, in learning teachers prepare their students to have a problem-solving skill. And the silent way can be
described as a problem-solving approach to language learning, and is summed up nicely in Benjamin franklin’s
words: “tell me and I forget. Teach me and I remember. Involve me and I learn.”

Adoption
Adoption is the process by which people take a child who was not born to them and raise him or her as
a member of their family. By law, adopted children differ from foster children. An adoption child, has all the
legal rights of a member of the family that raises him or her. A foster child does not.
Parents place their children up for adoptions for many reasons. Some parents feel they cannot
adequately care for their off springs because of health or economic conditions. Some others, especially unwed
parent, may not want to raise a child.
But there are couples who cannot have children of their own. Adoption gives them opportunity to raise
a family. They can get one from an adoption agency if they have all the requirements asked.
State laws prohibit adoption agencies from revealing the identity of the natural parents to the
adoptive parents. These laws also forbid agencies from disclosing the identity of the adoptive parents to the
natural parents. In some states, the law permits adopted persons who are at least 18 years old to see their
birth certificates including the natural parents’ names.
On the contrary, many adopted people worked to change the laws. They argue that people have a
right to know their identity. They said that keeping secret their adoptions records violates their right.
On the other hand, many people feel adoption records should be kept secret. If not, natural parents
might change their minds years later and take the child away from the parents who raised him or her.
Some experts advise that a child should know of the adoptions by the age of 6 or 7. Surveys have
shown that most adopted children develop normally.
17 . Which of the is following is NOT the reason why parents place their child up for adoption?
20. Which of the following is the most improbable reasons why adopted children want to have/know their adoptive
records?
It was Sunday, December 26, 2004, a horrific tragedy occurred simultaneously in Aceh, North
Sumatra, Thailand, India, Maladeva, Ceylon and some of the East African coastal areas. A devastating
earthquake wreaked havoc with massive tsunamis that swept towns, villages and resort areas. The quake and
tsunamis caused death, chaos and devastasion. In Indonesia alone, the latest figures on the death tool is
estimated at about 105,000 and more than tens of thousands or probably hundreds of thousands of people are
still missing.
The quake that hit Aceh and North Sumatra at 7:58 a.m. was centered some 20 kilometers below the
seabed and around 149 kilometers south of Meulaboh or near Simeuleu island. The quakes triggered massive
tidal waves that slammed into coastlines across Asia. The quake measuring 8.9 on the Richter scale is
Indonesia’s worst natural disaster after the 1883 eruption of Mt. Krakatau, which killed 36,000 people.
Thousands of houses, school buildings, offices, hospitals and other buildings had been swept away by
force of about five-to-ten-meter tidal waves across Aceh and North Sumatra. Because of the disaster there is
no more telecommunication lines, and land transportation. Many roads were covered with mud and debris, and
bridges were destroyed. Tens of thousands of human corpses lay sprawled everywhere. The destroyed cities
are Banda Aceh, Meulaboh, Teunom, Lho’nga, Calang, Bireuen, Lhokseumawe, and Pidie and the damaged
islands are Nias and Simeuleu.
The Indonesian army, navy, air force, police and thousands of volunteers were sent to location to
evacuate the victims, bury the dead, clean the location from mud and debris, and provide food, fresh water and
medicines. Millions of Indonesian people including businessmen donated their money to help the needs of the
victims. And there are 32 European, 6 Asian Pacific, 2 American, 5 middle East and 4 African countries, and 4
International banks become donators. Most of them also provide other from of help, service and support. It
needs trillions of rupiahs to renovate and rebuild the devastated places. And it needs a very long time, patience
and hard work to overcome the trauma of the victims from the calamity.

The people who agree with this idea, such as Sarah, claim that if they do carry on boxing they should wear
something to protect their heads. They also argue that people who do boxing could have brain damage and get
seriously hurt. A further point they make is that most of the people that have died have families.
However, there are also strong arguments against this point o view. Another group of people believe that
boxing should not be banned. They say that boxing is a good sport, people enjoy it. A furthermore reason is if they
ban boxing it will ruin people’s careers.
After looking at the different points of view and the evidence for them I think boxing should be banned
because five hundred people have died in boxing since 1884.
