D 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. The relationship between Britain and the US has always been a close one. Like all close relationships it has had difficult times. The US was first a British colony, but between 1775 and 1783 the US fought a war to become independent. The US fought the British again in the War of 1812. In general, however, the two countries have felt closer to each other than to any other country, and their foreign policies have shown this. During World War I and World War II, Britain and the US supported each other. When the US looks for foreign support, Britain is usually the first country to come forward and it is sometimes called “the 51st state of the union”. But the special relationship that developed after 1945 is not explained only by shared political interests. An important reason for the friendship is that the people of the two countries are very similar. They share the same language and enjoy each other’s literature, films and television. Many Americans have British ancestors, or relatives still living in Britain. The US government and political system are based on Britain’s, and there are many Anglo-American businesses operating on both sides of the Atlantic. In Britain, some people are worried about the extent of US influence, and there is some jealousy of its current power. The special relationship was strong in the early 1980s when Margaret Thatcher was Prime Minister in Britain and Ronald Reagan was President of the US. Question 32: What is the passage mainly about? A. The strong friendship between the UK and the US. B. The close relationship between Britain and the US C. A special relationship the UK developed during the World Wars D. A special influence the US had on the UK during the World Wars Question 33: The phrase “come forward” in paragraph 2 mostly means _______ .

Many Americans have British ancestors. C. British Prime Minister and the US President are close friends. D. Many Anglo-American businesses are operating in the two countries Question 36: Britain and the US are close to each other NOT because of their ______. A. foreign policies B. power C. political interest D. language 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. Saving the planet is very much in vogue. It's also in Harper's Bazaar, Elle and Mademoiselle. It's the message on fashion runways, in marketing strategies, in jewelry and accessory designs, on shopping bags and totes, in advertisements and on price tags. A naked fashion model wearing a hat of birch branches and lichen, as shown in Vogue this month, may not be everyone's idea of environmental awareness. But the pervasiveness of ecological themes in the images and marketing of fashion is undeniable. It is also somewhat paradoxical. The fashion industry, whose driving philosophy involves encouraging consumers to discard the old and embrace the new, is now trying to push itself to the forefront of efforts to conserve and preserve. The environmental theme in fashion began as wispy touches and graphic exhortations in designer collections, not as some well-thought-out strategy of ''green'' marketing in which the environmental advantages of a product become part of the sales approach. Tendrils of ivy dangled from the ceiling at a Paris fashion show; a carpet of grass covered a runway in New York; models marched along in T-shirts or carrying signs all bearing slogans like ''Clean Up or Die,'' ''Save the Sphere,'' and ''Environmental Protection Agents. The environmental spin on fashion has now moved into the mass market, where ''clothes with conscience'' make an extra tug at the buyer's self-image. Bonjour, a jeans and sportswear company based in New York, has embarked on a program to ''change the individual's outlook toward saving the environment'' through educational tags. This summer, the first wave of what Bonjour executives said would be 50 million fashion items a year are to arrive in stores carrying tags with environmental tips from how to save water to how to reduce pollutants. Whether these tributes to nature will benefit the environment or even raise environmental awareness, with concomitant changes in individual behavior, is not clear. There is some skepticism. Professor Ewen says the new environmental symbolism should be viewed as part of an overall change in America's economy, from one built on industrial production of hard goods to one based on ''pure representation”. “Going back to fashion, the environment has become a commercial cliche separated from real concerns. What can be attached to this year's fashion is merely the symbolism of environmental sanity.'' Question 37: Which best serves as the title for the passage? A. The green movement in the fashion world B. The long-forgotten theme of the fashion industry. C. Fashion and environment can never go hand in hand. D. Going green is the new big thing.

A. fine B. small C. silvery D. flamboyant Question 41: According to paragraph 4, what is the main focus of the current green fashion? A. Attracting wider consumers through the promotion of self-concept. B. The combination of aesthetics and sustainability. C. Realistic strategy to deliver a positive message for the environment. D.
