Line
1 In some cultures, when you are invited to have meal at someone’s house, you
2 might consider rude if you don’t say how nice the food is. In Britain, for
3 example, it’s normal for someone complimenting the cook on the tastiness of
4 the meal. You can say something like, “That was delicious. Do, please, write
5 down the receipt for me!”. In other culture, however, people tend not to be so
6 full of enthusiasm for the meal. You might be regarded of being rude, as the
7 cook might associate your praise with surprise. He or she might think “So,
8 they’re shocking that I can cook well”. If you’re not sure how to react, the best
9 advice is to wait and look how other people at the table react. If that doesn’t
10 help, be careful about which you say! I would suggest that one solution should
11 been to say, “That was delicious, but then I knew it would be!”

or D. Identify your answer by writing the corresponding letter A, B, C or D on the answer
sheet. (1.0 point)
Jupiter is the largest and most massive planet and is fifth in order of distance from the sun. It is
well placed for observation for several months in every year and on average is the brightest of the
planets apart from Venus, though for relatively brief periods Mars may outshine it. Jupiter’s less than
10-hour rotation period gives it the shortest day in the solar system insofar as the principal planets
are concerned. There are no true seasons on Jupiter because the axial inclination to the perpendicular
of the orbital plane is only just over 30 - less than that for any other planet.
The most famous mark on Jupiter is the Great Red Spot. It has shown variations in both
intensity and color, and at times it has been invisible, but it always returns after a few years. At its
greatest extent it may be 40,000 kilometers long an 14,000 kilometers wide, so its surface area is
greater than that of Earth. Though the latitude of the Red Spot varies little, it drifts about in
longitude. Over the past century the total longitudinal drift has amounted to approximately 1200 0.
The latitude is generally very close to -220. It was once thought that the Red Spot might be a solid or
semisolid body floating in Jupiter’s outer gas. However, the Pioneer and Voyager results have
refuted that idea and proven the Red Spot to be a phenomenon of Jovian meteorology. Its longevity
may well be due to its exceptional size, but there are signs that it is decreasing in size, and it may not
be permanent. Several smaller red spots have been seen occasionally but have not lasted.
1. According to the passage, Jupiter has the shortest day among the principal planets because
A. its rotation period is shorter than 10 hours
B. the axial inclination is only just over 30
C. it is on the average the brightest of all the planets
D. There is the interference of the Great Red Spot
2. The author’s tone in this passage is
A. argumentative B. supportive C. enthusiastic D. neutral
3. According to the passage, Mars outshine Jupiter
A. on a regular basis B. from time to time
C. every several months D. less often than any other planet
4. This passage would be of most interest to
A. students of anthropology B. geologists
C. mathematicians D. amateur astronomers
5. It can be inferred from this passage that Jupiter’s Great Red Spot
A. will become brighter with time B. will one day vanish
C. will continue expanding D. is made of floating gases
