Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, or D on your answer sheet to indicate
the correct answer to each of the questions from 23 to 30.
Most scientists agree that global warming presents the greatest threat to the environment.
There is little doubt that the Earth is getting warmer. In the last century the average temperature
rose about 0.6 degrees C around the world. Many experts warn that global warming will cause sea
levels to rise dramatically. In the past 100 years the oceans have risen 10 to 20 cms - but that's
nothing compared to what would happen if, for example, Greenland's massive ice sheet were to
melt.
Just as the evidence is clear that temperatures have risen in the last century, it's also well
established that carbon dioxide in the Earth's atmosphere has increased about 30 percent, allowing
the atmosphere to trap too much heat. However, the exact link, if any, between the increase in
carbon dioxide emissions and the higher temperatures is still being disputed. Most scientists
believe that humans, by burning fossil fuels such as coal and petroleum, are largely to blame for the
increase in carbon dioxide. But some scientists also point to natural causes, such as volcanic activity.
The current rate of warming is faster than ever before, however, which suggests it probably
is not a natural occurrence. And a large number of scientists believe the rise in temperatures will, in
fact, speed up. A recent study suggested that Greenland's ice sheet will begin to melt if the
temperature there rises by three degrees C. That is something many scientists think is likely to
happen in another hundred years. The complete melting of the Greenland ice cap would raise sea
levels by seven metres. Even a partial melting would cause a one-metre rise. Such a rise would have
a devastating impact on low-lying islands, such as the Maldives, which would be entirely
submerged.

Other scientists emphasise that such doomsday scenarios may be hundreds of years in the
future. 'You can't say with any certainty that sea-level rises are going to have a huge impact
on society,' says Stouffer. 'Who knows what the planet will look like 5000 years from now?' Most
climate scientists, however, agree that global warming is a threat that has gone unchecked for too
long. 'Is society aware of the seriousness of climate warming? I don't think so,' says Marianne
Douglas, professor of geology at the University of Toronto. 'Otherwise we'd all be leading our lives
differently. We'd see a society that used alternative sources of energy, with less dependence on
fossil fuels.'

Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, or D on your answer sheet to indicate
the correct answer to each of the questions from 31 to 40.
 
Choosing a career may be one of the hardest jobs you ever have, and it must be done with
care. View a career as an opportunity to do something you love, not simply as a way to earn a
living. Investing the time and effort to thoroughly explore your options can mean the difference
between finding a stimulating and rewarding career and move from job to unsatisfying job in an
attempt to find the right one. Work influences virtually every aspect of your life, from your choice
of friends to where you live. Here are just a few of the factors to consider.
     
Deciding what matters most to you is essential to making the right decision. You may want
to begin by assessing your likes, dislikes, strengths, and weaknesses. Think about the classes,
hobbies, and surroundings that you find most appealing. Ask yourself questions, such as “Would
you like to travel? Do you want to work with children? Are you more suited to solitary or
cooperative work?” There are no right or wrong answers; only you know what is important
to you. Determine which job features you require, which ones you would prefer, and which ones
you cannot accept. Then rank them in order of importance to you.
     
The setting of the job is one factor to take into account. [1] You may not want to sit at a
desk all day. If not, there are diversity occupation – building inspector, supervisor, real estate
agent – that involve a great deal of time away from the office. [2] Geographical location may be a
concern, and employment in some fields in concentrated in certain regions. Advertising job can
generally be found only in large cities. On the other hand, many industries such as hospitality, law

education, and retail sales are found in all regions of the country. [3] Many jobs, such as insurance
sales, offers relatively low starting salaries; however, pay substantially increases along with your
experience, additional training, promotions and commission. [4]
     
Don't rule out any occupation without learning more about it. Some
industries evoke positive or negative associations. The traveling life of a flight attendant appears
glamorous, while that of a plumber does not. Remember that many jobs are not what they appear
to be at first, and may have merits or demerits that are less obvious. Flight attendants must
work long, grueling hours without sleeps, whereas plumbers can be as highly paid as some
doctors. Another point to consider is that as you mature, you will likely develop new interests and
skills that may point the way to new opportunities. The choice you make today need not be your
final one.
Question 31: Where in paragraph 3 does the following sentence best fit?
If a high salary is important to you, do not judge a career by its starting wages.

A. think over
B. get over
C. go over

B. All jobs have hidden challenges and benefits that may not be immediately apparent.
C. You should choose a career based solely on its salary potential.
D. Once you choose a career, it is important to stick with it for life.
Question 36: The word grueling in paragraph 4 is OPPOSITE in meaning to ______.
A. punishing
B. effortless
C. trivial
D. pleasant
Question 37: According to the passage, which of the following is TRUE?
A. You had better not take a job with a low starting salary.
B. The type of work you do does not influence any aspects of your life.
C. Choosing a career must be done automatically.
D. Your initial view of certain careers may not be accurate.
Question 38: Which of the following best paraphrases the underlined sentence in paragraph 2?
A. Your personal values are the only truth.
B. Answers vary, and you determine their significance.
C. Everyone has their own opinion on what matters.
D. The importance of answers is subjective to each individual.
Question 39: It can be inferred from the paragraph 3 that ______.
A. jobs in insurance sales are generally not well-paid.
B. insurance sales people can earn higher salary later in their career.
C. jobs involving much time away from the office such as building inspector, supervisor are
not usually available.
D. starting salaries should be taken into careful consideration when choosing careers.

the setting of the job.
