PART I. MULTIPLE-CHOICE (8.0 POINTS)
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 from 1 to 10.
My family consists of four people. There’s my father whose name is Jan, my mother whose name is Marie, my brother, Peter and of course, me. I have quite a large extended family as well but, only the four of us live together in our apartment in a block of flats. My father is fifty-two years old. He works as an accountant in an insurance company. He is tall and slim, has got short brown and gray hair and blue eyes. My father likes gardening very much as well as listening to music and reading books about political science. His special hobbies are bird watching and travelling.
 Now I’ll describe my mother and my brother. My mother is forty-seven and she works as a nurse in a hospital. She is small, and slim, has short brown hair and green eyes. She likes bird watching and travelling too, so whenever my parents are able to they go some place interesting for nature watching. Since we have a cottage with a garden they both spend a lot of time there. My brother is sixteen. He is slim and has short brown hair and blue eyes. He also attends high school. He is interested in computers and sports like football and hockey. He also spends a lot of time with his friends.
I have only one grandmother left still living. She is in pretty good health even at the age of seventy-eight so she still lives in her own flat. I enjoy spending time with her when I can. Both my grandfathers died from cancer because they were smokers, which was really a great tragedy because I didn’t get chance to know them. My other grandmother died just a few years ago. I also have a lot of aunts, uncles, and cousins. The cousin I’m closest to is my uncle’s daughter Pauline. We have a lot in common because we are both eighteen and so we are good friends.
My parents have assigned me certain duties around the house. I don’t mind helping out because everyone in a family should contribute in some way. I help with the washing up, the vacuuming and the shopping. Of course I also have to help keep my room tidy as well. My brother is responsible for the dusting and mopping. He also has to clean his own room. Even though my brother and I sometimes fight about who has to do what job, we are still very close. I am also very close to my parents and I can rely on them to help me. My patents work together to keep our home well maintained and it seem they always have a project or another that they are working on. They respect each other’s opinions and even if they disagree they can always come to a compromise. I hope in the future that I have a family like ours.

 We are descendents of the ice age. Periods of glaciation have spanned the whole of human existence for the past 2 million years. The rapid melting of the continental glaciers at the end of the last ice age spurred one of the most dramatic climate changes in the history of the planet. During this interglacial time, people were caught up in a cataclysm of human accomplishment, including the development of agriculture and animal husbandry. Over the past few thousand years, the Earth’s climate has been extraordinarily beneficial, and humans have prospered exceedingly well under a benign atmosphere.
Ice ages have dramatically affected life on Earth almost from the very beginning. It is even possible that life itself significantly changed the climate. All living organisms pull carbon dioxide out of the atmosphere and eventually store it in sedimentary rocks within the Earth’s crust. If too much carbon dioxide is lost, too much heat escapes out into the atmosphere. This can cause the Earth to cool enough for glacial ice to spread across the land.
In general the reduction of the level of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere has been equalized by the input of carbon dioxide from such events as volcanic eruptions. Man, however, is upsetting the equation by burning fossil fuels and destroying tropical rain forests, both of which release stored carbon dioxide. This energizes the greenhouse effect and causes the Earth to warm. If the warming is significant enough, the polar ice caps eventually melt.
The polar ice caps drive the atmospheric and oceanic circulation systems. Should the ice caps melt, warm tropical waters could circle the globe and make this a very warm, inhospitable planet.
Over the past century, the global sea level has apparently risen upwards of 6 inches, mainly because of the melting of glacial ice. If present warming trends continue, the seas could rise as much as 6 feet by the next century. This could flood coastal cities and fertile river deltas, where half the human population lives. Delicate wetlands, where many marine species breed, also would be reclaimed by the sea. In addition, more frequent and severe storms would batter coastal areas, adding to the disaster of the higher seas.
The continued melting of the great ice sheets in polar regions could cause massive amounts of ice to crash into the ocean. This would further raise the sea level and release more ice, which could more than double the area of sea ice and increase correspondingly the amount of sunlight reflected back into space. The cycle would then be complete as this could cause global temperatures to drop enough to initiate another ice age.
Question 21. According to the passage, carbon dioxide is stored in each of the following EXCEPT
	A. polar ice caps. 	B. sedimentary rocks.	C. rain forests.	D. fossil fuel.
Question 22. What does the final paragraph of the passage mainly discuss?
	A. The relationship between the ocean and the sun 	
	B. The amount of sunlight reflected into space
	C. A rise in global temperatures	
	D. The conditions that could lead to an ice age
Question 23. Which of the following does the author NOT mention as a consequence of a large rise in global sea level?
	A. The destruction of wetlands	B. The flooding of cities
	C. A more diverse marine population	D. Severe storms
Question 24. According to the passage, what is the relationship between carbon dioxide and the Earth’s climate?
 A. Carbon dioxide, which is trapped in glacial ice, is released when warm temperatures cause the ice melt.
 B. The greenhouse effect, which leads to the warming of the climate, is result of too much carbon stored in the Earth’s crust.
 C. Rain causes carbon dioxide to be washed out of the atmosphere and into the ocean.	
 D. An increase in atmospheric carbon dioxide results in the warming of the climate.
Question 25. The word "beneficial" in the first paragraph is closest in meaning to
	A. calm	B. inviting	C. thoughtful	D. favorable
Question 26. The word "massive" can be replaced to
	A. wide	B. huge	C. dense	D. thick
Question 27. It can be inferred from the passage that the development of agriculture
	A. preceded the development of animal husbandry.	
	B. withstood vast changes in the Earth’s climate.
	C. did not take place during an ice age.	
	D. was unaffected by the greenhouse effect.
Question 28. The word “this” in the third paragraph refers to
	A. man’s upsetting the equation 	
 B. the reduction of the level of carbon dioxide.
	C. a volcanic eruption	 
 D. the melting of the polar ice caps
Question 29. The word “inhospitable” is closest in meaning to
	A. imperfect.	B. uninhabitable.	C. unlikable	D. cruel.
Question 30. What is the main topic of the passage?
	A. The possibility that the popular ice caps will melt
	B. The coming of another ice age
	C. Man’s effect on the carbon dioxide level in the atmosphere
	D. The climate of the Earth over the years.
