Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C or D on your answer sheet to indicate the best
answer to each of the following questions from 23 to 30.
IDEAS OF BEAUTY
Although beauty is something that is desired throughout the world, its definition can be different from
one culture to the next. In some cultures, for example, beauty indicates good health or a high social position
while in others it suggests someone's suitability as a marriage partner. It's a topic which attracts a great deal
of attention, from scientists who study the factors involved in physical attraction, to fashion and cosmetics
companies who are keen to make money by selling products that will apparently make us more beautiful
and therefore attractive to others.
But beauty can sometimes come at a price. Cosmetic surgery is very common nowadays, with
people eager to change the way they look by having surgery to make their noses smaller or their lips larger,
but not all of these operations result in an improved appearance. For many, a suntanned body represents a
wealthy lifestyle of relaxing days at the beach, but nowadays we should all be aware of the possible
consequences of spending too much time in the sun.
In many cultures, symmetry is a key part of beauty, so people prefer balanced features on the face. In
some Asian cultures, large eyes are considered more beautiful than narrower ones. A slimmer body may
suggest a healthy and active person, so in the West in particular, people diet in order to look like models. In
other cultures, however, a larger build suggests that someone is wealthier because they can afford to eat
more and are therefore of a better social class. In Nigeria, women with a fuller figure are considered to be
more fertile and more able to have babies.
The Maasai people of East Africa regard beauty as something that can be controlled, and believe that
anyone can be beautiful just by looking after their appearance. For them, beauty exists in clean white teeth,
short hair and simple jewellery. This idea of beauty is perhaps something everyone can achieve.
Question 23. Which of the following is NOT mentioned as an idea of beauty, according to the passage?
A. Good health
B. High social position C. suitability for marriage D. Intelligence
Question 24. The word "keen" in paragraph 1 is OPPOSITE in meaning to _____
A. eager
B. uninterested
C. enthusiastic
D. passionate
Question 25. The word “improved” in paragraph 2 could be best replaced by:
A. better
B. worse
C. changed
D. broken
Question 26. The word "ones" in paragraph 3 refers to _____
A. eyes
B. people
C. cultures
D. features
Question 27. Which of the following best paraphrases the underlined sentence in paragraph 2?
A. Beauty can be expensive.
B. Beauty can have negative consequences.
C. Beauty can be a source of pride.
D. Beauty can be difficult to achieve.
Question 28. Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?
A. In Nigeria, women with a fuller figure are unlikely to have children.
B. The Maasai people believe that beauty is unchangeable.
C. In some cultures, larger builds are associated with wealth.
D. Clean white teeth are seen as unattractive by the Maasai people.

Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C or D on your answer sheet to indicate the best
answer to each of the following questions from 31 to 40.
On a boat near Costa Rica, a team of marine biologists' is helping a turtle. The animal is having
trouble breathing, and the team discovers why there is something inside its nose. A scientist tries to extract
the object, but the turtle cries in pain. Finally, after eight long minutes, a long object is pulled out: It is a 10centimeter plastic straw,
The video of the turtle's rescue has been viewed millions of times on YouTube. [I] It has helped
raise awareness of a growing problem: The world's seas are full of plastic. [II] Since 2000, there has been a
huge increase in worldwide plastic production, but we recycle less than one-fifth of it. [III] Today, scientists
think about 8.1 billion kilograms goes into the sea every year from coastal regions. [IV] Most of this plastic
will never biodegrade.
This ocean plastic hurts millions of sea animals every year. Some fish eat plastic because it is
covered with sea plants, and it looks and smells like food. Typically, eating plastic leads to constant hunger.
"Imagine you ate lunch and then just felt weak... and hungry all day," says marine biologist Matthew
Savoca. "That would be very confusing." In some cases, eating sharp pieces of plastic can seriously hurt sea
animals and even result in death.
Plastic is useful to people because it is strong and lasts a long time-but this is bad news for sea
creatures who eat or get stuck in it. According to Savoca, "Single-use plastics are the worst." These are
items that are used only once before we throw them away. Some common examples include straws, water
bottles, and plastic bags. About 7000 sea species (including the turtle from the video) have been caught in or
have eaten this kind of plastic. Luckily, the turtle survived and was released back into the ocean.
How will plastic affect sea animals in the long term? "I think we'll know the answers in 5 to 10
years' time," says Debra Lee Magadini from Columbia University. But by then, another 25 million tons of
plastic will already be in the ocean.
Question 31. The word "extract" in paragraph 1 could be best replaced by _______.
A. remove
B. insert
C. replace
D. add
Question 32. Where in paragraph 2 does the following sentence best fit?
“A lot of this plastic waste ends up in the ocean”
A. [I]
B. [II]
C. [III]
D. [IV]
Question 33. According to paragraph 2, which of the following is NOT mentioned as a concern about
plastic?
A. The rapid increase in global plastic production.
B. The fact that most plastic will not break down naturally.
C. The low percentage of plastic that is recycled worldwide.
D. The harmful effects of plastic on human health.
Question 34. Which of the following best summarizes paragraph 3?
A. Ocean plastic production has increased significantly since 2000, leading to environmental
pollution.
B. Eating plastic confuses and harms sea animals, sometimes causing death.
C. Marine biologists are working to reduce the amount of plastic waste in the oceans.
D. Many fish mistake plastic for food because it looks and smells similar to sea plants.
Question 35. The word "them" in paragraph 4 refers to ______.
A. sea creatures
B. single-use plastics
C. scientists
D. plastic straws
Question 36. The word “released” in paragraph 4 is OPPOSITE in meaning to:
A. discovered
B. saved
C. found
D. captured

Question 37. Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?
A. The long-term effects of plastic pollution on sea animals are well-understood.
B. Single-use plastics are the only type of plastic that harms sea animals.
C. The problem of plastic pollution is likely to worsen in the coming years.
D. Most plastic pollution comes from inland sources.
Question 38. Which of the following best summarizes paragraph 5?
A. It will take a long time to find a solution, and by then the plastic problem will worsen.
B. Scientists will find answers soon, and the plastic pollution will be completely under control.
C. We already have the answers about plastic pollution, but we need more time to act.
D. The plastic problem will be solved in 5 to 10 years with minimal additional pollution.
Question 39. Which of the following can be inferred from the passage?
A. Single-use plastics are particularly harmful because they are designed to last for many years.
B. Marine animals tend to eat plastic because they are unable to differentiate it from food.
C. Despite the negative effects of plastic, it is likely that the amount of plastic entering the oceans will
decrease over time.
D. The rescue of the turtle in the video shows that plastic is not always lethal to sea animals.
Question 40. Which of the following could be served as the best title for the passage?
A. The Plastic Crisis: A Threat to Marine Life
B. The Rescue of a Turtle: A Symbol of Hope
C. The Benefits of Plastic: A Double-Edged Sword
D. The Future of the Oceans: A Plastic-Free World
