Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, or D on your answer sheet to choose the
word or phrase that best fits each of the numbered blanks.
The "greenhouse effect" is the warming that happens when certain gases in Earth's atmosphere __( 1
)__ heat. These gases let in light but keep heat from escaping, like the glass walls of a greenhouse.
First, sunlight shines onto the Earth's surface, __( 2 )__ it is absorbed and then radiates back into the
atmosphere as heat. In the atmosphere, greenhouse gases trap some of this heat, and the rest escapes
into space. The more greenhouse gases are in the atmosphere, the more heat gets trapped.
Scientists have known about the greenhouse effect since 1824, when Joseph Fourier calculated that
the Earth would be much colder if it had no atmosphere. This greenhouse effect is what keeps the
Earth's climate __( 3 )__. Without it, the Earth's surface would be an average of about 60 degrees
Fahrenheit cooler.
Scientists often use the term "climate change" instead of global warming. This is because as the
Earth's average temperature climbs, winds and ocean currents move heat around the globe in ways
that can cool some areas, warm __( 4 )__ and change the amount of rain and snow falling. __( 5 )__,
the climate changes differently in different areas.

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 following questions.
Improving girls’ educational levels has been demonstrated to have clear impacts on the health and
economic future of young women, which in turn improves the prospects of their entire community.
The infant mortality rate of babies whose mothers have received primary education is half that of
children whose mothers are illiterate. In the poorest countries of the world, 50% of girls do not
attend secondary school. Yet, research shows that every extra year of school for girls increases their
lifetime income by 15%. Improving female education, and thus the earning potential of women,
improves the standard of living for their own children, as women invest more of their income in
their families than men do. Yet, many barriers to education for girls remain. In some African
countries, such as Burkina Faso, girls are unlikely to attend school for such basic reasons as a lack
of private latrine facilities for girls.
Higher attendance rates of high schools and university education among women, particularly in
developing countries, have helped them make inroads to professional careers with better-paying
salaries and wages. Education increases a woman's (and her partner and the family's) level of health
and health awareness. Furthering women's levels of education and advanced training also tends to
lead to later ages of initiation of sexual activity and first intercourse, later age at first marriage, and
later age at first childbirth, as well as an increased likelihood to remain single, have no children, or
have no formal marriage and alternatively, have increasing levels of long-term partnerships. It can
lead to higher rates of barrier and chemical contraceptive use (and a lower level of sexually
transmitted infections among women and their partners and children), and can increase the level of
resources available to women who divorce or are in a situation of domestic violence. It has been
shown, in addition, to increase women's communication with their partners and their employers, and
to improve rates of civic participation such as voting or the holding of office.

A. Woman's Rights to Lifelong Education
B. Education and Women's Empowerment
C. Female Education and Social Benefits
D. Education and Violence Against Women

B. the husband in a family takes little responsibility in rearing the children
C. there are numerous reasons for women not to come to class worldwide
D. the children's standard of living largely depends on their mother's income

The Singapore Science Centre is located on a six-hectare site in Jurong. At the centre, we can
discover the wonders of science and technology in a fun way. Clap your hands and colorful bulbs
will light up. Start a wheel spinning and it will set off a fan churning. It is a place to answer our
curiosity and capture our imagination.
The centre features over four hundred exhibits covering topics like solar radiation, communication,
electronics, mathematics, nuclear energy and evolution. It aims to arouse interest in science and
technology among us and the general publid. The centre is the first science one to be established in
South East Asia. It was opened in 1977 and it now receives an average of one thousand, two
hundred visitors a day. The exhibits can be found in four exhibition galleries. They are the Lobby,
Physical Sciences, Life Sciences and Aviation. These exhibits are renewed annually so as to
encourage visitors to make return visits to the centre.
Instead of the usual “Hands off” notices found in exhibition halls, visitors are invited to touch and
feel the exhibits, push the buttons, turn the cranks or pedals. This is an interesting way to learn
science even if you hate the subject. A Discovery Centre was built for children between the ages of
three and twelve. This new exhibition gallery was completed in 1985. Lately this year a stone-age
exhibit was built. It shows us about the animals and people which were extinct.
