One of the factors in global warming is carbon monoxide. The more carbon monoxide in the atmosphere, the
less the atmosphere is able to clean itself. The result is a warming of the atmosphere, the so-called global warming,
and possibly ozone damage.
Earlier, it was found that carbon monoxide was concentrated in the Southern Hemisphere, and could be
attributed to deforestation. Huge areas of forest and grasslands in South America and Africa have been burned,
putting carbon monoxide into the atmosphere. Recently, however, the Southern Hemisphere has been found to be
clean, while the Northern Hemisphere is more polluted than expected.
The latest research was done during the northern winter. The high levels in the Northern Hemisphere could
be because of this. In winter carbon monoxide is destroyed more slowly. There are also more fires burned in winter,
and possibly industrial processes work harder. It could also reflect the ever-increasing number of cars on the roads.
Optimists hope that the reason why the North has overtaken the South as the major area of carbon monoxide is that at
last the burning has stopped, or at least slowed down.
23. Which of the following is the best title for the passage?
A Global warming. B. Carbon monoxide in the atmosphere.
C. The warming of the atmosphere. D. Ozone damage.
24. Which of the following is NOT a reason for carbon dioxide?
A. Ozone damage. B. Burning of forest.
C. Traffic. D. Industry.
25. According to the author which of the following is a reason why in winter there is more carbon-monoxide in the
atmosphere?
A. Fewer factories are working.
B. There is a decrease in the amount of traffic on the roads.
C. Central heating means there are fewer fires nowadays.
D. Carbon monoxide is not absorbed so fast.
26. Why are the optimists happy?
A. People are buying more cars.
B. There is more carbon dioxide in the North.
C. They are possibly burning fewer forests in the Southern Hemisphere.
D. Industry must be doing better.
27. What is the attitude of the author towards the new findings?
A. He is biased in favor of the South. B. He is neutral.
C. He agrees with the optimists. D. He is worried about the North.

The idea of going overseas to study can be daunting, with visions of baffling languages or nights spent in
isolation while you are gradually forgotten by your friends and family. (27) ______, the benefits of studying abroad -
such as broadening your mind, improving your career prospects and making friends from all over the world - can

"Studying abroad is an eye-opening experience,” says Anna Boyd, event manager at The Student World.
"Being (29) _______ in another culture, understanding differences and spotting similarities, living on a beach or in
the mountains, (30) __________ will have an impact on every student."
Overseas study comes in many shapes and sizes. It might be a single semester abroad via an Erasmus
programme, for example. Or you might elect to follow a full three-or four-year degree programme. Whatever your
ambition, the key is starting early. Some countries require specific combinations of A-levels from UK students,
Germany looks for four A-levels including maths or science and one modern foreign language, for instance, while
others, such as the US, value extracurricular activities. Starting our research well ahead (31)_______ time can help
you make the right choices. "Getting involved in sports, arts and music is also worth considering, as well as gaining
experience through volunteering and work placements," says Boyd. In fact, applying to study abroad could even
work to your advantage, for example, you might encounter lower (32)________ requirements.

Read the passage and choose the best answer.
A rather surprising geographical feature of Antarctica is that a huge freshwater lake, one of the world's
largest and deepest, lies hidden there under four kilometers of ice. Now known as Lake Vostok, this huge body of
water is located under the ice block that comprises Antarctica. The lake is able to exist in its unfrozen state beneath
this block of ice because its waters are warmed by geothermal heat from the earth's core. The thick glacier above
Lake Vostok actually insulates it from the frigid temperatures on the surface.
The lake was first discovered in the 1970s while a research team was conducting an aerial survey of the area.
Radio waves from the survey equipment penetrated the ice and revealed a body of water of indeterminate size. It was
not until much more recently that data collected by satellite made scientists aware of the tremendous size of the lake;
the satellite-borne radar detected an extremely flat region where the ice remains level because it is floating on the
water of the lake.
The discovery of such a huge freshwater lake trapped under Antarctica is of interest to the scientific
community because of the potential that the lake contains ancient microbes that have survived for thousands of
years, unaffected by factors such as nuclear fallout and elevated ultraviolet light that have affected organisms in
more exposed areas. The downside of the discovery, however, lies in the difficulty of conducting research on the lake
in such a harsh climate and in the problems associated with obtaining uncontaminated samples from the lake without
actually exposing the lake to contamination. Scientists are looking for possible ways to accomplish this.
23. The word "hidden" in paragraph 1 is closest in meaning to ____.
A. undrinkable B. untouched C. unexploitable D. undiscovered
24. What is true of Lake Vostok?
A. It is completely frozen. B. It is saltwater lake.
C. It is beneath a thick slab of ice. D. It is heated by the sun.
25. Which of the following is closest in meaning to "frigid" in paragraph 1?
A. extremely cold B. easily broken C. quite harsh D. lukewarm
26. All of the following are true about the 1970 survey of Antarctica EXCEPT that it ____.
A. was conducted by air B. made use of radio waves
C. could not determine the lake's exact size D. was controlled by a satellite
27. It can be inferred from the passage that the ice would not be flat if ____.
A. there were no lake underneath B. the lake were not so big
C. Antarctica were not so cold D. radio waves were not used

In the early twentieth century, an American woman named Emily Post wrote a book on etiquette. This book

confusing to Westerners. In Chinese culture, both the giver and receiver understand that the receiver will typically
refuse to take the gift several times before he or she finally accepts it. In addition, to (32)________ respect for the
