David Peters, the Scottish long-jumper, has been awarded a knighthood …(0) in… recognition of his services to charity and the world of athletics. Sir David, as he will be known, will be knighted by the Queen in a ceremony next week. Mr Peters, who retired (41) …………..athletics last year, had a talent which was, quite simply, out (42)……… the ordinary. All his performances were, without exception, characterized by great effort and determination.

At his best, however, his jumping was sometimes (48)………… belief, and in his greatest year, 2000, he broke the world record no fewer than four times. In the late 1990s he was single- handedly responsible for bringing British athletics out of a severe slump with his inspirational performances and personal charisma. Peters was capable of great generosity, and once, famously, failed a jump deliberately in order to let his great rival, Aravan Sijipal, win on his farewell appearance. When being interviewed, Peters was also an exception to the rule, for he always tried to praise others rather than blow his own trumpet.

(involve) not only planting new kinds of crops, but also some strange ways of making money, the most unusual of which has got to be sheep racing. Yes, you heard me correctly! A farmer in the west of England now (54)…………… (hold) sheep races on a regular basis, and during the past year over 100,000 people (55)……………….. (turn up) to watch the proceedings. “I (56)……………. (pass) the farm on my way to the sea for a holiday,” one punter told me, “and I thought I'd have a look. I didn’t believe it was serious, to tell you the truth.” According to a regular visitor, betting on sheep is more interesting than betting on horses. “At proper horse races everyone (57)……………..(already/study) the form of the horses in advance, and there are clear favorites. But nobody (58)…………… (hear) anything about these sheep! Most people (59)………….. (find) it difficult to tell one from another in any case.” I stayed to watch the races, and I must admit that I found it quite exciting. In a typical race, half a dozen sheep race downhill over a course of about half a mile. Food (60)……….. (wait) for them at the other end of the track, I ought to add! The sheep run surprisingly fast, although presumably they haven’t eaten for a while just to give them some motivation. At any rate, the crowd around me were obviously enjoying their day out at the races, judging by their happy faces and the sense of excitement.

Part II. Read the following passage and choose the most suitable heading from the list A → G for each paragraph. There are one extra heading which you do not need to use. Write your answers in the spaces provided. 0 has been done as an example. A. How to make fantasy seem real. E. The real Middle Earth B. A new best-seller. F. A new fantasy creature. C. Fantasy before Tolkein G. The experience of war D. The Master of Middle Earth. The Life and Work of J. Tolkein 0 D Many authors become masters of a particular genre of fiction. But very few can claim to have had such an effect that they virtually have created the genre for themselves. One such author is J. Tolkein. From his prolific imagination was created not only Middle Earth; the stage for his giant fantasy The Lord of the Rings, but also a whole genre of fantasy fiction which has since become known as "sword and sorcery". 81 Before Tolkein's work was published, fantasy was set in what was very near to the present for the authors. Also, the genre was very close to horror, and authors such as Lovell and Bram Stoker moved easily between the two. The the great American writer Edgar Allen Poe had recently brought out a work of what we would today call horror stories, but he had entitled it Tales of Mystery and Imagination, suggesting that he thought of it as fantasy. 82 Tolkein's distinctive contribution was to create a pseudo-medieval world and to populate it with wise wizards, bold knights, and a massive cast of other characters, including dwarfs, elves, and most of the other creatures of our folk memory. He also created his own contribution, the hobbit. Hobbits were small people, who had distinctive hairy feet. They were characterised by honest common sense and rather complex social lives. In all his works, it is evidently the hobbits with whom Tolkein sympathizes the most. 83 What made Tolkein's work so compelling was that it was a perfectly realized work of fantasy. Every detail in his stories rings true. This is because Tolkein spent so much time working and thinking about Middle Earth that the actual part which we have on paper is only a fraction of his research. His later books show clearly to what extent he had created this entire world, complete with detailed maps and even the languages of the major protagonists. 84 However, although Middle Earth is a towering work of fantasy, it has roots in reality. The Middle Earth of Tolkein is close to his own native Oxfordshire, both in the landscape of the Shire, and above 5
all in the reactions and behaviour of its characters. The ethos is that of pre-war England, possibly because Tolkein could conceive of no other mode of behaviour, but more probably because his book can be read on many levels, and in only the most basic of the levels is the great struggle between light and darkness completely. 85 It must be remembered that Tolkein was writing in a time when one Great War had just finished, and another was about to begin. In his book, he stresses the bravery, and endurance of the small people without whom victory is impossible. This was the lesson that Tolkein felt had to be learned from the horrors of the Great War - the decisions which shape the destiny of nations are taken by an elite group, but they are implemented by the common people of the country. Part III. You are going to read two short passages, then answer the questions following each passage by choosing the best answer (A, B, C or D) to each question. Paragraph 1 Marianne Moore (1887-1972) once said that her writing could be called poetry only because there was no other name for it. Indeed her poems appear to be extremely compressed essays that happen to be printed in jagged lines on the pages. Her subjects were varied: animals, laborers, artists, and the craft of poetry. From her general reading came quotations that she found striking or insightful. She included these in her poems, scrupulously enclosed in quotation marks, and sometimes identified in footnotes. Of this practice, she wrote, “Why the many quotation marks?” I am asked …When a thing has been said so well that it could not be said better, why paraphrase it? Hence my writing is, if not a cabinet of fossils, a kind of collection of flies in amber.” Close observation and concentration on detail are the methods of her poetry. Marianne Moore grew up in Kirkwood, Missouri, near St. Louis. After graduation from Bryn Mawr College in 1909, she taught commercial subjects at the Indian School in Carlisle, Pennsylvania. Later she became a librarian in New York city. During the 1920’s she was editor of The Dial, an important literary magazineof the period. She lived quietly all her life, mostly in Brooklyn, New York. She spent a lot of time at the Bronx Zoo, fascinated by animals. Her admiration of the Brooklyn Dodgers – before the team moved to Los Angeles – was widely known. Her first book of poems was published in London in 1921 by a group of friends associated with the Imagist movement. From that time on her poetry has been read with interest by succeeding generations of poets and readers. In 1952 she was awarded the Pulitzer Prize for her Collected Poems. She wrote that she did not write poetry “for money and fame. To earn a living is needful, but it can be done in routine ways. One writes because one has a burning desire to objectify what it is indispensable to one’s happiness to express …”. 86. What is the passage mainly about? A. The influence of the Imagists on Marianne Moore B. Essayists and poets of the 1920’s C. The use of quotations in poetry D. Marianne Moore’s life and work 87. Which of the following can be inferred about Moore’s poems? A. They are better known in Europe than the United States. B. They do not use traditional verse forms. C. They were all published in The Dial. D. They tent to be abstract. 88. According to the passage Moore wrote about all of the following EXCEPT A. artists B. animals C. fossils D. workers 6
89. What does Moore refer to as “flies in amber”? A. A common image in her poetry B. Poetry in the twentieth century C. Concentration on detail D. Quotations within her poetry 90. The author mentions all of the following as jobs held by Moore EXCEPT A. commercial artist B. teacher C. magazine editor D. librarian 91. The word “period” is closest in meaning to A. movement B. school C. region D. time 92. Where did Moore spend most of her adult life? A. in Kirkwood B. in Brooklyn C. in Los Angeles D. in Carlisle 93. The word “succeeding” is closest in meaning to A. inheriting B. prospering C. diverse D. later 94. The word “it” refers to A. writing poetry B. becoming famous C. earning a living D. attracting readers 95. It can be inferred from the passage that Moore wrote because she A. wanted to win awards B. was dissatisfied with what others wrote C. felt a need to express herself D. wanted to raise money for the Bronx Zoo Paragraph 2 The atmosphere that originally surrounded Earth was probably much different from the air we breathe today. Earth's first atmosphere (some 4.6 billion years ago) was most likely hydrogen and helium - the two most abundant gasses found in the universe-as well as hydrogen compounds, such as methane and ammonia, Most scientists feel that this early atmosphere escaped into space from the Earth's hot surface. A second, more dense atmosphere, however, gradually enveloped Earth as gasses from molten rocks within its hot interior escaped through volcanoes and steam vents. We assume that volcanoes spewed out the same gasses then as they do today: mostly water vapor (about ten percent), carbon dioxide (about ten percent), and up to a few percent nitrogen. These same gasses probably created Earth's second atmosphere. As millions of years passed, the constant outpouring of gasses from the hot interior - known as outgassing-provided a rich supply of water vapor, which formed into clouds. Rain fell upon Earth for many thousands or years, forming the rivers, lakes, and oceans of the world. During this Lime, large amounts of carbon dioxide were dissolved in the oceans. Through chemical and biological processes, much of the carbon dioxide became locked up in carbon sedimentary rocks, such as limestone. With much of the water vapor already condensed into water and the concentration of carbon dioxide dwindling, the atmosphere gradually became rich nitrogen. 7
It appears that oxygen, the second most abundant gas in today's atmosphere, probably began an extremely slow increase in concentration as energetic rays from the sun split water vapor into hydrogen and oxygen during a process called photodissociation. The hydrogen, being lighter, probably rose and escaped into space, while the oxygen remained in the atmosphere. This slow increase in oxygen may have provided enough of this gas for primitive plants to evolve, perhaps two to three billion years ago. Or the plants may have evolved in an almost oxygen-free (anaerobic) environment. At any rate, plant growth greatly enriched our atmosphere with oxygen. The reason for this enrichment is that plants, in the presence of sunlight, process carbon dioxide and water to produce oxygen. 96. What is the main idea of the passage? A. The original atmosphere on Earth was unstable B. The atmosphere on Earth has changed over time C. Hot underground gasses created clouds, which formed the Earth’s atmosphere D. Plant growth depended on oxygen in the Earth’s atmosphere 97. The word “enveloped” in line 6 is closest in meaning to A. surrounded B. changed C. escaped D. characterized 98. The word “they” in line 8 refers to A. gasses B. volcanoes C. steam vents D. rocks 99. According to the passage, outgassing eventually led to all of the following EXCEPT A. increases in the carbon dioxide content of sedimentary rocks B. the formation of bodies of water C. decreases in the level of nitrogen D. the formation of clouds 100. The word “gradually” in line 17 is closest in meaning to A. accidentally B. quickly C. in the end D. by degrees 101. The passage suggests that oxygen remained in the atmosphere because A. it was caused by outgassing B. it was heavier than hydrogen C. hydrogen became trapped in limestone D. rays from the sun created equal amounts of hydrogen and oxygen 102. The author uses the word “Or” in line 24 to A. criticize the previous suggestion B. provide unrelated information C. propose a similar idea D. suggest an alternative 103. The phase “At any rate” in line 24 is closest in meaning to A. regardless B. in addition C. although unlikely D. fortunately 104. The author organizes the discussion of the Earth’s atmosphere in terms of the A. role of volcanoes in its formation B. occur in which changes occurred C. time it took for the Earth’s surface: to cool and nitrogen to appear D. chemical and physical features of gasses 8
105. Which of the following does the passage mention as necessary for both the production of oxygen by photodissociation and the production of oxygen by plants? A. Water B. Hydrogen C. Carbon dioxide D. Nitrogen Part IV. Fill each blank with ONE suitable word. Write your answers in the numbered box.
