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.
 Marco Polo’s trip had, in fact, started more than 9,000 kilometres (5,600 miles) away in Venice when he was just a teenager. His father and uncle already knew Kublai Khan from a previous visit five years earlier, when they had spent a short time in Shangdu. On this second trip, the Polos would stay for 17 years, making themselves useful to the Khan and undertaking various missions and tasks for him. It is likely that the Khan considered it an honour that Europeans - who were rare in China - had made the extremely difficult journey, and he made good use of their skills and knowledge.
 In the service of Kublai Khan, "the most powerful man in people and in lands and in treasure that ever was in the world," Marco was able to learn and experience many things that were new to Europeans. In his travel journal, he described Kublai Khan’s palace as the greatest he had ever seen. He admired a world that the Khan’s recendy completed new capital, Daidu, whose streets were "so straight and so broad." The city was located in what is now the centre of Beijing, and Kublai Khan’s city planning can still be perceived in the straight, broad streets of China’s modern capital.
 We learn from Marco Polo that, in the administration of his empire, Kublai Khan made use of a fast and simple message system. Horse riders spaced every 40 kilometres allowed messages to cover 500 kilometres a day. Marco also learned the secret of asbestos cloth, which is made from a mineral and doesn’t catch fire. Paper money also took him by surprise, as it was not yet in use in the West at that time. Homes were heated with "black stones...which burn like logs." Those stones were coal - unknown in most of Europe - and they were so plentiful that many people had a hot bath three times a week.
 Although the Khan did not want his visitors to leave, the Polos finally received permission to return home in 1292. Marco continued his observations on the ocean voyage by way of Sumatra and India. Upon his return, he completed a book about his trip, full of details about his amazing cultural experiences. It was probably the greatest contribution of geographic information ever made to the West about the East.
Question 22: Where might this passage be found?
A. a brochure	B. a guide book	C. a course book	D. an article
Question 23: Where is Kublai Khan’s influence still felt in Beijing today?

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.
THE CUT FLOWER LEADER
 When you purchase cut flowers from your local florist, do you think about where they came from? Common sense might tell you that they were grown close by, because cut flowers can’t survive a very long trip. The reality, though, is that your cut flowers might come from places like the Netherlands, Ecuador, or Kenya!
 Flowers can now travel long distances thanks to air freight and high-tech cooling systems. Even the most delicate orchid can be shipped to arrive fresh in most places on Earth. This allows Americans, for example, to import some 70 percent of the cut flowers they buy.
 The country that exports the most cut flowers is the Netherlands, which dominates the world cut-flower trade. There, seven auction houses handle about 60 percent of the world’s cut-flower exports. Some auction houses are very large indeed - Aalsmeer, near Amsterdam, is an auction house in the sense that Tokyo is a city or Everest a mountain. Its scale is daunting. About 120 soccer fields would fill its main hangar, which holds five auction halls. Nineteen million cut flowers are sold here on an average day.
 The Netherlands is also a world leader in developing new flower varieties. Dutch companies and the government invest a considerable amount of money in flower research. Their scientists try to find ways to lengthen a flower’s vase life. They also try to strengthen flowers to prevent them from being damaged while travelling on rough roads and to strengthen flowers’ natural fragrance.
 The Benefits of Climate
 Despite Holland’s dominance of the flower market, there are many places with a better climate for growing flowers, and the climate of Ecuador is almost perfect. Mauricio Dàvalos is the man responsible for starting Ecuador’s flower industry some 20 years ago. "Our biggest edge is nature," he claims. "Our roses are the best in the world." With predictable rainy periods and 12 hours of sunlight each day, Ecuador’s roses are renowned for their large heads and long stems. The flower industry has brought employment opportunities and a stronger economy to regions of the country. "My family has TV now. There are radios. Some people have remodeled their houses," says Yolanda Quishpe, 20, who picked roses for four years.
 In recent years, local growers in Ecuador have faced growing competition from greenhouses built by major international companies. Despite this, Davalos feels that the world cut flower trade is large enough to allow both high-tech international companies and smaller national growers to succeed - at least for the time being. But not all local growers are as optimistic. Lina Hale is an independent rose grower in the United States whose business is now under constant threat from cheaper imports from large companies. In the 1980s, her father predicted the situation would get worse: "I see a freight train coming down the track," he warned her, "and it’s coming straight towards us."
Question 37: What is this passage mainly about?
A. the importance of climate to flower growing	B. the history of the flower trade
C. recent developments in the flower trade	D. the most commonly traded flowers
Question 38: The phrase "under constant threat" is closest in meaning to......
A. in danger	B. is damaged by	C. at risk	D. to the damage

C. American companies and their government	D. Mauricio Davalos and Ecuador’s flower industry

B. The entire flower industry was under threat.

D. He could actually see a train.
Question 41: The word "edge" on line 18 is closest in meaning to......
A. end	B. difference	C. advantage	D. angle
Question 42: What are researchers NOT mentioned as working on?
A. strengthening a flower’s fragrance	B. changing the colour of certain flowers
C. preventing flowers from being damaged while travelling 	D. lengthening a flower's vase life
