of the questions from 36 to 42.

Whales are the largest animals in the world, and the gentlest creatures we know Although the whale is very huge, it is nothindered at all by its size when it is in the water Whales have tails that end like flippers With just a gentle flick, it can propelitself forward The skin of a whale is so smooth that it does not create any friction that can slow the whale down A whale’sbreathing hole is located on the top of its head, so it can breathe without having to completely push its head out of the water.Whales are protected from the cold seawater by body fat that is called blubber

Whales live in the ocean but, in terms of behaviours, they are more similar to humans than fish They live in family groups

and they even travel in groups when they have to migrate from cooler to warmer waters The young stay with their parents for aslong as fifteen years Whales are known not to desert the ill or injured members; instead, they cradle them

When whales are in danger, there are people who go to great lengths to help them One such case occurred in 1988, when threeyoung whales were trapped in the sea It was close to winter and the sea had begun to freeze over Whales are mammals thatrequire oxygen from the air, so the frozen ice was a great danger to them All they had then was a tiny hole in the ice for them tobreathe through Volunteers from all over soon turned up to help these creatures They cut holes in the ice to provide morebreathing holes for the whales These holes would also serve as guides for the whales so that they could swim to warmer waters

Question 41: According to the passage, why was the frozen ice on the sea surface a danger to whales?

B Because whales couldn’t breathe without sufficient oxygen.

C Because they couldn’t eat when the weather was too cold.

Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, or D on your answer sheet to indicate the correct answer to each

It's called 42 - the name taken from the answer to the meaning of life, from the science fiction series The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy 42 was founded by French technology billionaire Xavier Niel, whose backing means there are no tuition fees and

accommodation is free Mr Niel and his co-founders come from the world of technology and start-ups, and they are trying to do

to education what Facebook did to communication and Airbnb to accommodation.

Students at 42 are given a choice of projects that they might be set in a job as a software engineer - perhaps to design a website

or a computer game They complete a project using resources freely available on the Internet and by seeking help from their

fellow students, who work alongside them in a large open-plan room full of computers Another student will then be randomlyassigned to mark their work

The founders claim this method of learning makes up for shortcomings in the traditional education system, which they sayencourages students to be passive recipients of knowledge "Peer-to-peer learning develops students with the confidence to searchfor solutions by themselves, often in quite creative and ingenious ways." Like in computer games, the students are asked todesign and they go up a level by completing a project They graduate when they reach level 21, which usually takes three to fiveyears And at the end, there is a certificate but no formal degree Recent graduates are now working at companies including IBM,Amazon, and Tesla, as well as starting their own firms

"The feedback we have had from employers is that our graduates are more apt to go off and find out information forthemselves, rather than asking their supervisors what to do next," says Brittany Bir, chief operating officer of 42 in California and

Trang 4

a graduate of its sister school in Paris Ms Bir says 42's graduates will be better able to work with others and discuss and defendtheir ideas - an important skill in the "real world" of work.

"This is particularly important in computer programming, where individuals are notorious for lacking certain human skills,"she says

But could 42's model of teacherless learning work in mainstream universities? Brittany Bir admits 42's methods do not suit allstudents "It suits individuals who are very disciplined and self-motivated, and who are not scared by having the freedom to work

at their own pace," she says

(Adapted from http://www.bbc.com/news/business-37694248)

A a tool of virtual communication B a kind of school

D The students of 42 are required to play computer games during their course.

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 23 to 30.

It's called 42 - the name taken from the answer to the meaning of life, from the science fiction series The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy 42 was founded by French technology billionaire Xavier Niel, whose backing means there are no tuition fees and

accommodation is free Mr Niel and his co-founders come from the world of technology and start-ups, and they are trying to do

to education what Facebook did to communication and Airbnb to accommodation.

Students at 42 are given a choice of projects that they might be set in a job as a software engineer - perhaps to design a website

or a computer game They complete a project using resources freely available on the Internet and by seeking help from their

fellow students, who work alongside them in a large open-plan room full of computers Another student will then be randomlyassigned to mark their work

The founders claim this method of learning makes up for shortcomings in the traditional education system, which they sayencourages students to be passive recipients of knowledge "Peer-to-peer learning develops students with the confidence to searchfor solutions by themselves, often in quite creative and ingenious ways." Like in computer games, the students are asked todesign and they go up a level by completing a project They graduate when they reach level 21, which usually takes three to fiveyears And at the end, there is a certificate but no formal degree Recent graduates are now working at companies including IBM,Amazon, and Tesla, as well as starting their own firms

"The feedback we have had from employers is that our graduates are more apt to go off and find out information forthemselves, rather than asking their supervisors what to do next," says Brittany Bir, chief operating officer of 42 in California and

a graduate of its sister school in Paris Ms Bir says 42's graduates will be better able to work with others and discuss and defendtheir ideas - an important skill in the "real world" of work

"This is particularly important in computer programming, where individuals are notorious for lacking certain human skills,"she says

But could 42's model of teacherless learning work in mainstream universities? Brittany Bir admits 42's methods do not suit allstudents "It suits individuals who are very disciplined and self-motivated, and who are not scared by having the freedom to work

at their own pace," she says

Whales live in the ocean but, in terms of behaviours, they are more similar to humans than fish They live in family groups

and they even travel in groups when they have to migrate from cooler to warmer waters The young stay with their parents for aslong as fifteen years Whales are known not to desert the ill or injured members; instead, they cradle them
