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
An ideal "flying train" that can glide effortlessly over the tracks has long been a pipe dream of scientists.
Thanks to Maglev technology, their dreams are now a reality. Maglev trains have no wheels. Instead, powerful
magnets lift them into the air and push them forward, at speeds of up to 500 km per hour.
As well as speed, Maglev has a number of advantages over other transport systems. The trains are quieter and
the journey is smoother because they don't have wheels. They are also greener because they don't use fuel and so
create less pollution. Right now there is only one high-speed Maglev train system in the world. It carries
passengers from Shanghai city centre to the airport. However, work has started on a new, longer Maglev track in
Japan. Trains will go from Tokyo to Nagoya in 40 minutes. But don't expect to ride on it on your next trip to
Japan. It won't open until 2027! Then, in 2045, the line will extend to Osaka.
There is one major problem with Maglev technology: it is incredibly expensive to build the tracks. Transport
planners predict that the Tokyo to Osaka line will cost 91 billion dollars. The high cost means that Maglev
technology probably won't replace other forms of transport in the near future. However, the technology is still in
development and somebody might find a cheaper and simpler way to build the tracks. And then, who knows? In
the future, some of us might fly to work by train.
Question 5. Which of the following can be the best title for the passage?
A.Trains with Maglev Technology B.Trains or Planes?
C.The End of Normal Trains D.Replacement of Trains All Over Japan
Question 6. What does the word "pipe dream" in the first sentence imply?
A. A practical and attainable goal.
B. A long-desired but seemingly impossible dream.
C. A technological innovation with immediate impact.
D. A scientific theory in its early stages of development.
Question 7. According to paragraph 2, Maglev trains_______.
A.travel faster than other vehicles B. don't make any noise
C. don't do much harm to the environment D. require a special type of fuel
Question 8. The word "they" in paragraph 2 refers to_____.
A. transport systems B. advantages C. wheels D. Maglev trains
Question 9. Which of the following is NOT true, according to the passage?
A. A high-speed Maglev train system was first developed in Shanghai.
B. The cost of building Maglev train tracks can be enormous.
C. Maglev trains can travel at an incredibly fast speed.

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
A school where attendance is not required, there are no tests, homework assignments, or grades. This is the
Brooklyn Free School, an educational establishment that adheres to the 'free' schooling ideology. Neither the
school's head teacher nor the teaching staff, who are known as advisers, tell the students what to do. It's entirely
up to them to choose what they learn and how they wish to learn it. This is based on the school's belief that
learning only happens when it is self-directed and not imposed by others.
The school is only open to students from three to eighteen years of age. It encourages them to get involved in
everything that concerns the school. In order to do so, students attend a Democratic Meeting where they have
equal votes with the staff. This get-together is at the heart of the school's philosophy. Taking place every
Wednesday, it gives staff and students an opportunity to be heard. Announcements are made, issues are raised and
everyone cooperates for the well-being of the school. Attendance at the weekly meeting is one of the few school
rules. Though some of the younger students don't pay much attention, preferring to read or draw instead, they
must be present.
A typical school day is different for every student. They can paint, play video games or work on laptops.
Some prepare for the school's annual play by rehearsing or building stage sets. In the kitchen, others might be
baking a cake or sorting rubbish for recycling. Traditional classroom lessons are also available if students wish to
attend. These are best for students who prefer a structured day along with a weekly timetable. By offering these
choices, the school accommodates all needs. Being part of a group of classes on a regular basis fits some students
best, while doing individual projects is what suits others.
Parents hope the school will make their children independent thinkers and problem solvers. However, the
school's system has its share of opponents. Their main criticism is that it does not, in fact, adequately prepare
- students for real life. This is due to the enormous freedom students have, which can lead to laziness and lack of
discipline. Furthermore, it's believed that the school's academic preparation is inadequate. This seems to be
supported by the fact that there are parents who have had to hire private tutors to help to make sure their children
learn the basics. Also, in its first academic year, a third of the original students left, as did the teachers. Since then,
however, enrolments have increased and people are regaining confidence in the idea of self-regulated education
and the school's mission
