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

Certain birds are, more often than not, considered bad luck, or even a sign of impending death For

example, all over the world, both crows and ravens have some connection to war, and death In early

times, crows and ravens were thought to accompany the gods of war, or be signs of the gods’ approaching arrival This idea later changed Crows in particular were thought to be harbingers of ill fortune or, in some cases, guides to the afterlife Woe be it to the person who saw a single crow or raven flying overhead, for

this was most certainly a portent of death in the near future

Interestingly, though potentially bad luck for people individually, the raven is considered to be good luck for the crown of England So much so, in fact, that a “raven master” is, even today, an actual government position in London He takes care of the ravens there and also clips their wings, ensuring that these birds can never fly far from the seat of the British government This way, the kingdom will never fall to ill

fortune

Another bird that is thought to play a part in forecasting the fortunes of people is the swallow Depending

on how and when it is seen, the swallow can be a harbinger of either good or ill fortune Perhaps inspired

by the swallow’s red-brown breast, Christian people initially related the swallow to the death of Jesus Christ Thus, people who saw a swallow fly through their house considered it a portent of death Later, however, farmers began to consider swallows signs of good fortune Any barn that has swallows living in

it is sure to be blessed in the following year Farmers also have to beware of killing a swallow; that would

be certain to end any good luck they might have had

Though many people think these superstitions are old wives’ tales, there is actually some evidence to

support them For example, crows and ravens, being scavengers, appear at the aftermath of battles Thus, large numbers of crows and ravens could be good indications of war in an area As well, swallows feed on insects that can cause infections in cattle Thus, a farmer who has many swallows in his barn may actually have healthier animals on his farm Therefore, the next time you feel inclined to laugh at an old wives’ tale, maybe you had better find out if there is any truth to it first!

Question 36: What is the main idea of this reading?

B Don’t look a crow in the eye

C Ravens bring good luck for the country of England

D Crows eat dead animals

Question 40: The word "old wives’ tales" in paragraph 4 is closest in meaning to _

A stories told by housewives in the past

B old beliefs which have been proved to be scientifically true

C folk beliefs passed down from generation to generation without any reason of science

D folk tales about wives that were passed on to people in a spoken form

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

A newborn baby can see, hear and feel By the age of five, a child can talk, ride a bike and invent

imaginary friends How does this development happen? We don’t understand the way language, thinking and planning develop very well Now scientists are using new technology to ‘see’ into children’s brains And they are discovering new information about the way a baby’s brain develops

A study in 2010 showed that the experiences a child has in their first few years affect the development of the brain It showed that children who received more attention often had higher IQs The brain of a

newborn baby has nearly a hundred billion neurons This is the same number as an adult’s brain As they grow, a baby receives information through the senses of sight, hearing, smell, taste and touch This

information creates connections between different parts of the brain At the age of three, there are a

hundred trillion connections

One experiment looked at images of babies’ brains while they were listening to different sounds The sounds were in different sequences For example, one sequence was mu-ba-ba This is the pattern ‘A-B-B’ Another sequence was mu-ba-ge This is the pattern ‘A-B-C’ The images showed that the part of the brain responsible for speech was more active during ‘A-B-B’ patterns This shows that babies can tell the

difference between different patterns This experiment is interesting because sequences of words are

important to grammar and meaning Compare two sentences with the same words in a different order:

‘John killed the bear’ is very different from ‘The bear killed John.’ So babies are starting to learn

grammatical rules from the beginning of life

Researchers also know that babies need to hear a lot of language in order to understand grammar rules But there is a big difference between listening to television, audio books or the internet, and interacting with people One study compared two groups of nine-month-old American babies One group watched videos

of Mandarin Chinese sounds In the other group, people spoke the same sounds to the babies The test results showed that the second group could recognise different sounds, however the first group learned

nothing.The scientist, Patricia Kuhl, said this result was very surprising It suggests that social experience

is essential to successful brain development in babies

Question 43: The purpose of the article is to

A explain new studies into the development of babies’ brains

B describe how a new-born baby’s brain works

C compare the brains of adults and children

D prove that nowadays babies are more intelligent than in the past

Question 44: According to the first paragraph

A most aspects of child development are understood quite well

B some five-year-olds have imaginary friends

C children use technology more these days

D technology has been used in children’s brain surgery

Question 45: Which statement is supported by the second paragraph?

A Adult brains have more neurons than new-born babies’ brains

B Babies and three-year-olds have the same number of neurons

C Early experiences have an effect on brain development

D The connections between parts of the brain stay the same as a child grows up

Question 46: According to the second paragraph, which of the following can affect IQ?

A being with adults a lot

B connecting with other babies

C paying attention to a baby

D having access to information as early as possible

Question 47: It can be inferred from the passage that

A A pattern like ‘A-B-C’ is easier to understand

B Babies’ brains cannot recognise different sound patterns

C It’s not known which area of a baby’s brain processes speech

D Children can actually learn grammatical rules in their very early age

Question 48: According to the article, which statement is true?

A Experiments focusing on language have given researchers new information

B Children who hear different languages develop differently

C The development of language is the easiest thing to study in babies

D Babies are able to understand grammar rules of a language only in specific period

Question 49: What did the study described in the last paragraph do?

A compare the effects of different languages

B divide babies into two groups with different treatment

C investigate if babies can learn Chinese

D teach babies foreign languages through listening to videos

Question 50: What is the main conclusion from the study described in the last paragraph?

A Babies can understand television at the age of nine months

B Social interaction has a big influence on the brain

C Watching videos is a good way to develop a child’s brain

D Mandarin Chinese is not too hard to be learned for American babies
