SECTION C: READING I. Fill in each blank with ONE suitable word to complete the following passage. Maybe you recycle cans, glass, and paper. Do you know that nature recycles, too? One of the things that nature (62) ….. is water. Water goes from oceans, lakes, and rivers into the air. Water falls from the air as (63)….. or snow. Rain and snow eventually find their way back to the oceans. Nature’s recycling program for water is (64)….. the water cycle. The water cycle has four stages: storage, evaporation, precipitation, and run-off. Water on Earth gets stored (65)….. oceans, lakes, rivers, ice, and even underground. Water goes from storage into the atmosphere by a process called evaporation. When water evaporates, it changes from a liquid (66)….. a gas, called water vapor. Water vapor goes up into (67)…... atmosphere. Water returns to the Earth as precipitation in rain or snow by changing into drops of water (68)….. the air gets cold enough. Clouds are collections (69)…..water droplets. Most precipitation falls into the oceans and goes right back into storage. Water that falls on land always flows from (70)….. places to low ones. This flow is called run-off. Water from land flows into streams. Streams join together to make (71)….. and eventually the water flows into storage in the oceans. Then the water cycle starts all over again. 62.......................................................... 63.................................................................. 64.......................................................... 65.................................................................. 66.......................................................... 67.................................................................. 68.......................................................... 69.................................................................. 70.......................................................... 71.................................................................. II. Read the passage and choose the best answer A, B, C or D. The purpose of advertising is to (72)….. people to buy things. Nowadays, (73)….., advertisers don’t attempt to sell a product to everybody; they try to target the product at a particular segment or group of the population. Market research attempts to identify these people and the products they need. Most products have a (74)….. name and advertisers aim, through promotion and publicity, to turn these into recognizable brands. This gives the product an imaginary added (75) ….. which somehow convinces people it is worth paying extra for. Once an (76)…..agency has been commissioned by a producer, it will set about organizing an advertising campaign. Slogans will be invented, advertising copy will be written and the Media Planning and Buying department will work out which media will be best (77)…..for the particular niche the product is (78)…..at. The advertiser will try to position the product relative to its rivals and will point out its 4
(79)….. and superiority. (80)….. products are often international, advertising tends to (81)….. quite different in different countries, often falling back on stereotype images for each national market. 72.
