As health care costs continually rise in most developed countries, many people are looking for alternative forms of health therapy Two of the most popular forms of alternative therapies in the West today are acupuncture and herbal medicine, both of which have been used for centuries in Asia and are rooted in ancient Chinese medicine In essence, they attempt to treat the source of the health problem rather than
simply get rid of symptoms, which is something that many argue is the flawed crux of western medicinal
techniques
Trang 5Acupuncture is based on ancient Chinese medicine and the importance of ki, a kind of life force that pulsates through every human's body Ki runs through various pathways in the body and is fundamental in
giving human strength and energy as well as bolstering the immune system But, at times, these pathways
might suffer blockage or be disrupted, so ki is unable to flow smoothly through the body When this occurs,
the body becomes vulnerable to illness and pain This is where acupuncture comes in Acupuncturists are
well versed in the mapping of the ki pathways throughout the body and are able to locate and stimulate certain areas on the surface of the body in order to relieve pressure and allow ki once more to flow freely,
eliminating pains and illnesses in the process
One of the most common and successful methods of acupuncture is described as ear acupuncture This
technique is involved solely with the ear and its numerous activation points The ear is considered a highly
sensitive area of the human body because it contains a strong, healthy flow of blood as well as numerous
nerve points that connect it with the rest of the human body Acupuncturists place tiny needles in the surface
of the skin at certain points, depending on the desired result In general, ear acupuncture is considered an excellent therapy, especially for treating individuals with psychological or physical dependency issues such
as eating disorders and drug or alcohol abuse
A second form of alternative therapy based on Chinese traditional medicine is herbal therapy, in which special herbs are prescribed by the doctor to be taken in a hot liquid form, usually tea Traditionally, herbal teas are imbibed to boost the immune system and prevent illnesses from being able to enter the body Herbs also have a more direct influence than acupuncture on the body's physical system, as they can aid in normalizing blood pressure One excellent example of an herbal remedy is mushroom tea, which is an excellent antioxidant Other benefits attributed to the use of traditional Chinese herbs are that they build stamina and are good for digestive purposes Sometimes, herbal medicines are used in conjunction with acupuncture to magnify its effects

The green building movement, started in the 1970s as a way to reduce environmental destruction, is changing the way buildings are constructed In the early years, green builders were a small minority, and
Trang 9their goals of reducing the environmental impact of buildings were considered unrealistic Now, however, the movement is growing, as builders have been able to take advantage of new technology
Green builders try to make use of recycled materials, which means less waste in dumps Also, they reduce environmental impact by reducing the energy requirements of a building One way is to provide an alternative, non-polluting source of energy First, with solar panels, it is possible to produce electricity from
the rays of the sun Once installed, they provide energy at no they cost and with no pollution
Another solution is to reduce the amount of energy required in a building It is possible to cut electricity use noticeably by improving natural lighting and installing low-energy light bulbs To reduce the amount
of fuel needed for heating or cooling, builders also add insulation to the walls so that the building stays
warmer in winter and cooler in summer
One example of this advanced design is the Genzyme Center of Cambridge, the most environmentally responsible office building in America Every aspect of the design and building had to consider two things: the need for a safe and pleasant workplace for employees and the need to lessen the negative environmental impact 75 percent of the building materials were recycled materials, and the energy use has been reduced
by 43 percent and water use by 32 percent, compared with other buildings of the same size
In other parts of the world, several large-scale projects have recently been developed according to green building principles One of these is in Vauban, Germany, in an area that was once the site of army housing The site has been completely rebuilt with houses requiring 30 percent less energy than conventional ones These houses, heated by special non-polluting systems, are also equipped with solar panels
A larger project is under way in China The first phase of this project will include houses for 400
families built with solar power, non-polluting bricks, and recycled wall insulation In a second phase, entire neighborhoods in six cities will be built If all goes well, the Chinese government plans to copy these ideas
in new neighborhoods across China
Green building ideas, on a small or large scale, are spreading Individuals, companies, and governments are beginning to see their benefits Not only are they environmentally friendly, green buildings improve living and working conditions and also save money in the long run
(Adapted from "Advanced Reading Power" by Beatrice S Mikulecky and Linda Jeffries)
Question 10 What is one common characteristic shared by the Genzyme Center of Cambridge and the
project in Vauban, Germany?
A Both took advantage of new insulation technology, which cuts down on construction costs
B Both were built based on green building principles, which reduces energy use considerably
C Both are housing complexes with special, non-polluting heating systems
D Both were built out of entirely recycled materials instead of conventional ones
Question 11 The word "insulation" in paragraph 3 mostly means _
A materials that prevent heat loss and absorption
B systems that protect buildings from the sun's rays
C devices that monitor changes in temperature
D panels that convert solar energy into electricity
Question 12 According to paragraph 1, the environmental goals set by green builders were initially
considered unrealistic presumably because
A the problems of environment destruction were not prevalent at the time
B there was a lack of green builders at the beginning of the 20th century
C there was an abundance of natural materials for the construction of conventional buildings
D the potential applications of technology to constructing green buildings were not recognised then Question 13 According to the passage, which of the following statements about green buildings is TRUE?

REALITY TELEVISION
Reality television is genre of television programming which, it is claimed), presents unscripted dramatic
or humorous situation, documents actual events, and features ordinary rather than professional actors It could be described as a form of artificial or "heightened” documentary Although the genre has existed in some form or another since the early years of television, the current explosion of popularity dates from around 2000
Reality television covers a wide range of television programming formats, from game or quiz shows
which resemble the frantic, often demeaning programmes produced in Japan in the 1980s and 1990s (a
modern example is Gaki no Tsukai), to surveillance- or voyeurism- focused productions such as Big Brother
Critics say that the term “reality television” is somewhat of a misnomer and that such shows frequently portray a modifies and highly influenced form of reality, with participants put in exotic location or abnormal situations, sometimes coached to act in certain ways by off-screen handlers, and with events on screen manipulated through editing and other post-production techniques
Part of reality television's appeal is due to its ability to place ordinary people in extraordinary situations For example, on the ABC show, The Bachelor, an eligible male dates a dozen women simultaneously, traveling on extraordinary dates to scenic locales Reality television also has the potential to turn its participants into national celebrities, outwardly in talent and performance programs such as Pop Idol, though frequently Survivor and Big Brother participants also reach some degree of celebrity
Some commentators have said that the name “reality television" is an inaccurate description for several styles of program included in the genre In competition-based programs such as Big Brother and Survivor, and other special-living-environment shows like The Real World, the producers design the format of the
show and control the day-to-day activities and the environment, creating a completely fabricated world in
which the competition plays out Producers specifically select the participants, and use carefully designed scenarios, challenges, events, and settings to encourage particular behaviours and conflicts Mark Burnett, creator of Survivor and other reality shows, has agreed with this assessment, and avoids the word “reality"
to describe his shows; he has said, "I tell good stories It really is not reality TV It really is unscripted drama."
Question 18 In the first line, the writer says “it is claimed” because

Question 19 The word "demeaning" in paragraph 2 is closest in meaning to _
A valueless B despising C diminishing D humiliating
Question 20 According to the passage, the program "Pop Idol"

B is a dating show
C is more likely to turn its participants into celebrities than Big Brother
D is less likely to turn participants into celebrities than Big Brother

A real B imaginary C isolated D imaginative
Question 22 Which of the following it NOT TRUE according to the passage?
A Shows like Survivor have good-narratives
B Reality television has been popular since well before 2000
C Mark Burnett thinks the term "reality television" is inaccurate
D Japan has produced demeaning TV shows copied elsewhere
