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 36 to 42

In today's competitive world, what responsible parent would not want to give their children the best possible start in life? For this reason, many parents want their children, often as young as ten months old, to become familiar with computers They seem to think that if their children grow up with computers, they will be better equipped to face the challenges of the future No one has proved that computers make children more creative or more intelligent The truth may even be the opposite

Educational psychologists claim that too much exposure to computers, especially for the very young, may negatively affect normal brain development Children gain valuable experience of the world from their interaction with physical objects Ten month-old babies may benefit more from bumping their heads or putting various objects in their mouths than they will from staring at

eye-catching cartoons A four-year-old child can improve hand-eye coordination and understand cause

and effect better by experimenting with a crayon than by moving a cursor around a computer screen

So, as educational psychologists suggest, instead of government funding going to more and more computer classes, it might be better to devote resources to music and art programs

It is ludicrous to think that children will fall behind if they are not exposed to computers from

an early age Time is too precious to spend with a "mouse" Now is the time when they should be out there learning to ride a bike There will be time later on for them to start banging away at keyboards

A do not necessarily make more progress than those who don't

B tend to like music and art more than those who don't

C will suffer from brain damage

D tend to have more accidents than those who don't

Question 37: What would be an appropriate title for this passage?

A More computers mean brighter future B Computers in schools

Question 38: What is true according to the passage?

A There is no evidence that children who use computers are more clever than those who do not

B Computers seriously harm children's eyesight

C It is better for children to take computer lessons than art lessons

D Parents should not put off buying a computer for their children

Question 39: The word “coordination” in the second paragraph is closest in meaning to _

A collaboration B disorganization C unskillfulness D classification

Question 40: The author implies that children learn better _

A after they have developed hand-eye coordination

B when they hold and feel things around them

C as they get older

D when they use a computer

Question 41: The word “ludicrous” in the third paragraph is closest in meaning to _

A sensible B humorous C ridiculous D ironic

Question 42: Why do parents want their children to learn how to use a computer from an early age?

A Because they are afraid their children will become competitive

B Because they want their children to be well prepared for their future

C Because this is what all the other parents seem to do

D Because they believe their children will have difficulty learning to use one if they don't start early

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 43 to 50

Alexis de Tocqueville, the French political scientist, historian, philosopher and politician, is most famous for a four-volume book he wrote called “Democracy in America” He came to America in 1831

to study the American form of democracy and what it might mean to the rest of the world After a visit of only nine months, he wrote a remarkable book which is regarded as a classic De Tocqueville had unusual powers of observation He described not only the democratic system of government and how it operated, but also its effect on how Americans think, feel, and act Many scholars believe he had a deeper understanding of traditional American beliefs and values than anyone else who has

written about the United States What is so remarkable is that many of these traits which he

observed nearly 200 years ago, are still visible and meaningful today His observations are also important because the timing of his visit, the 1830s, was before America was industrialized This was the era of the small farmer, the small businessman, and the settling of the western frontier It was the period of history when the traditional values of the new country were newly established In just a generation, some 40 years since the adoption of the U.S Constitution, the new form of government
