.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 45 to 54. 
No one can calculate the quantity of solid waste that has been dumped in the world’s oceans, but the total certainly exceeds many millions of tons. For example, from 1880 to 1895, 75 percent of the solid waste from New York City was dumped untreated into the Atlantic Ocean. Although it is now prohibited by law, the dumping of solid waste, including wastewater sludge, industrial waste, and high-level radioactive waste were common in the United States until 1970. Cruise ships and huge floating fishing factories still regularly dispose of their solid waste products directly into the ocean. 
The earth naturally recycles water and refreshes the land in what is called the hydrological cycle. The hydrological cycle not only renews the supply of water, but cleans it as well. The process begins as heat from the sun causes sea water, 97 percent of the earth’s total water reserve, to evaporate and form clouds. Because water evaporates at lower temperatures than most pollutants, the water vapor that rises from the seas is relatively pure and free of the contaminants, which are left behind. Next, water returns to us as rain, which drains into streams and rivers and rushes toward the sea. 
Chemicals, petroleum products, and other dangerous substances such as radioactive materials remain in the ocean, polluting it permanently. The polluted ocean water kills fish or makes them dangerous to eat, posing health problems for those who consume them. It kills the tiny sea creatures that are the source of food for larger fish, sharks, and whales. It also spoils a source of great beauty and pleasure when some solid waste is thrown onto beaches during storms. Discharged petroleum products are frequently found on beaches and they not only ruin the beach, the petroleum residue kills hundreds of shore birds. Nonpoint pollutants are dumped into lakes, rivers, and streams that may be far away from any ocean. However, these pollutants flow, eventually, into the oceans. They can come from a variety of sources, from road salt to agricultural pesticides. One source of nonpoint pollution is runoff from farming, including fertilizers, manure, and pesticides. Another source is industrial runoff, including heavy metals, phosphorous, and many other chemicals. Urban runoff (oils, salts, various chemicals) and atmospheric fallout of airborne pollution are other sources of nonpoint pollutants that reach the oceans. This includes water and waste from sinks, toilets, washing machines and bathtubs. The problem with this type of waste is that it provides massive amounts of nutrients for water plants such as algae, so that they grow rapidly. This sudden growth causes concentration or algae blooms, which use up the oxygen in the water. As the oxygen level of the water declines, many organisms suffer and die, and the ocean ecosystem is radically altered. This can be prevented by the installation of waste treatment plants that prevent waste from entering the sea, but such facilities do not exist in many poorer countries. 
Question 45. What can be inferred about the waste dumped into the world’s oceans?
A. It’s mainly household waste	B. Much of it was not treated
C. It is billions of tons	D. It is primary industrial waste	
Question 46. As can be inferred from the passage, which of the following was NOT disposed into the ocean?

A. pollutants	B. rushes	C. sea water	D. vapor
Question 49. What does the word “which” in the second paragraph refer to?
A. rain water	B. the earth	C. sea water	D. water vaporizer
Question 50. Why are chemicals, petroleum products and radioactive materials mentioned in the passage?
A. as untreated waste	B. as industrial substances

 Read the passage then circle the best option A, B, C or D to complete the following questions or statements:
 Sharks have gained an unfair reputation for being fierce predators of large sea animals. Humanity's unfounded fear and hatred of these ancient creatures is leading to a worldwide slaughter that may result in the extinction of many coastal shark species. The shark is the victim of a warped attitude of wildlife protection; we strive only to protect the beautiful, non- threatening parts of our environment. And, in our efforts to restore only non- threatening parts of our earth, we ignore the other important parts.
 A perfect illustration of this attitude is the contrasting attitude toward another large sea animal, the dolphin. During the 1980s, the environmentalists in the U.S protested the use of driftnets for tuna fishing in the Pacific Ocean since these nets also caught dolphins. The environmentalists generated enough political and economic pressure to prevent tuna companies from buying tuna that had been caught in driftnets. In contrast to this effort on behalf of the dolphins, these same environmentalists have done very little to help save the Pacific Ocean sharks whose population has decreased nearly to the point of extinction. Sharks are among the oldest creatures on earth, having survived in the seas for more than 350 million years. They are extremely efficient animals, feeding on wounded or dying animals, thus performing an important role in nature of weeding out the weaker animals in a species. Just the fact that species such as the Great white Shark have managed to live in the oceans for so many millions of years is enough proof of their efficiency and adaptability to changing environments. It is time for us humans, who may not survive another 1, 000 years at the rate we are damaging the planet, to dispel our fears and begin considering the protection of sharks as an important part of a program for protection of all our natural environment.

	A. statement and example B. cause and effect C. order of importance	 D. chronological order
Question 56. Which of the following sentence is not mentioned in the passage?
	A. We are only protecting the beautiful and non- threatening parts of our environment.

	C. Tuna fishing is one of the causes that lead to the decrease in number of tuna in the Pacific Ocean.
	D. Worldwide slaughter of sharks leads to the extinction of these animals.
Question 57. The word "to dispel" means ________ .
	A. to see through	B. to throw away	C. to bring in	D. to set a part
Question 58. What can be inferred from the passage?
	A. We were destroying our environment by fishing too many fish.
	B. We should protect not only the non- threatening parts but also the other important parts.
	C. Tuna companies were not allowed to buy tuna from fishermen any more.

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 question s. 
Although  they are an inexpensive supplier of vitamins, minerals, and high-quality protein, eggs also contain a high level of blood cholesterol, one of the major causes of heart diseases. One egg yolk, in fact, contains a little more than two-thirds of the suggested daily cholesterol limit. This knowledge has driven egg sales to plummet in recent years, which in turn has brought about the development of several alternatives to eating regular eggs. One alternative is to eat substitute eggs. These egg substitutes are not really eggs, but they look somewhat like eggs when they are cooked. They have the advantage of having low cholesterol rates, and they can be scrambled or used in baking. One disadvantage, however, is that they are not good for frying, poaching, or boiling. A second alternative to regular eggs is a new type of egg, sometimes called ‘designer’ eggs. These eggs are produced by hens that are fed low-flat diets consisting of ingredients such as canola oil, flax, and rice bran. In spite of their diet, however, these hens produce eggs that contain the same amount of cholesterol as regular eggs. Yet, the producers of the these eggs claim that eating their eggs will not raise the blood cholesterol in humans.
Egg producers claim that their product has been portrayed unfairly. They cite scientific studies to back up their claim. And, in fact, studies on the relationship between eggs and human cholesterol levels have brought mixed result. It may be that it is not the type of eggs that is the main determinant of cholesterol but the person who is eating the eggs. Some people may be more sensitive to cholesterol derived from food than other people. In fact, there is evidence that certain dietary fats stimulate the body’s production of blood cholesterol. Consequently, while it still makes sense to limit one’s intake of eggs, even designer eggs, it seems that doing this without regulating dietary fat will probably not help reduce the blood cholesterol level.
45. What is the main purpose of the passage?
A.     To introduce the idea that dietary at increases the blood cholesterol level
B.     To make people know about the relationship between eggs and cholesterol
C.    To persuade people that eggs are unhealthy and should not be eaten

47. What has been the cause for changes in the sale of eggs?
A. increasing price                         	B. decreased production
C. dietary changes in hens            	D. concerns about cholesterol
48. What is meant by the phrase ‘mixed result’?
A. The result are blended 	B. The result are a composite of things
C. The result are inconclusive                  	D. The result are mingled together
49. According to the author, which of the following may reduce blood cholesterol?
A. reducing egg intake but not fat intake     	B. increasing egg intake and fat intake
C. decreasing egg intake and fat intake        	D. increasing egg intake but not fat intake
50. Which of the following could best replace the word ‘somewhat’?
A. in fact        	B. a little      	C. indefinitely           	D. a lot
51. According to the passage, one yolk contains approximately what fraction of the suggested daily limit for human consumption of cholesterol?

	Sleep is a natural process, and although a lot have been written about the subject, it is still surrounded by mystery. It is used by some as an escape from the world, and regarded by others as an irritating waste of time: some people get by on very little, others claim they cannot exist without at least ten hours, but nobody can do without sleep completely.
Our night’s sleep does not just consist of a steady phase of gradually deepening sleep. It alternate
