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 51 to 60.

At 7pm on a dark, cold November evening, thousands of people are making their way across a vast car park They're not here to see a film, or the ballet, or even the circus They are all here for what is, bizarrely, a global phenomenon: they are here to see Holiday on Ice Given that most people don't seem to be acquainted with anyone who's ever been, the show's statistics are extraordinary: nearly 300 million people have seen Holiday on Ice since it began in 1943; it is the most popular live entertainment in the world

But what does the production involve? And why are so many people prepared to spend their lives travelling round Europe in caravans in order to appear in it? It can't be glamorous, and it's undoubtedly hard work The backstage atmosphere is an odd mix of gym class and workplace A curtained-off section at the back of the arena is laughably referred to as the girls' dressing room, but is more accurately described as a corridor, with beige, cracked walls and cheap temporary tables set up along the length of it Each girl has a small area littered with pots of orange make-up, tubes of mascara and long false eyelashes

As a place to work, it must rank pretty low down the scale: the area round the ice-rink is grey and mucky with rows

of dirty blue and brown plastic seating and red carpet tiles It's an unimpressive picture, but the show itself is an unquestionably vast, polished global enterprise: the lights come from a firm in Texas, the people who make the audio system are in California, but Montreal supplies the smoke effects; former British Olympic skater Robin Cousins is now creative director for the company and conducts a vast master class to make sure they're ready for the show's next performance

The next day, as the music blares out from the sound system, the cast start to go through their routines under Cousins' direction Cousins says, The aim is to make sure they're all still getting to exactly the right place on the ice at the right time

- largely because the banks of lights in the ceiling are set to those places, and if the skaters are all half a metre out they'll

be illuminating empty ice Our challenge,' he continues, 'is to produce something they can sell in a number of countries at the same time My theory is that you take those things that people want to see and you give it to them, but not in the way they expect to see it You try to twist it And you have to find music that is challenging to the skaters, because they have

to do it every night.'

It may be a job which he took to pay the rent, but you can't doubt his enthusiasm 'The only place you'll see certain

skating moves is an ice show,' he says, 'because you're not allowed to do them in competition It's not in the rules So the

ice show world has things to offer which the competitive world just doesn't.' Cousins knows what he's talking about

because he skated for the show himself when he stopped competing - he was financially unable to retire He learnt the hard way that you can't put on an Olympic performance every night 'I'd be thinking, these people have paid their money,

now do your stuff, and I suddenly thought, "I really can't cope I'm not enjoying it".' The solution, he realised, was to give

75 per cent every night, rather than striving for the sort of twice-a-year excellence which won him medals

To be honest, for those of us whose only experience of ice-skating is watching top-class Olympic skaters, some of the movements can look a bit amateurish, but then, who are we to judge? Equally, it's impossible not to be swept up in the whole thing; well, you'd have to try pretty hard not to enjoy it

Question 51: According to paragraph 1 the writer is surprised to see that although Holiday on Ice is popular .

A people often prefer other types of show

B people prefer to see a film, the ballet, or the circus

C most people consider it as a holiday

D few people know someone who has seen it

Question 52: From the phrase "it must rank pretty low down the scale" in paragraph 3 we can infer that .

A Holiday on Ice has rather poor working condition B Holiday on Ice has a very dirty place to work

C skaters do not enjoy working in this place D skaters do not earn much money from the job

Question 53: Which of the following adjectives can be used to describe the backstage area?

Question 54: It is mentioned in paragraph 3 that .

A many companies are involved in the production B it is difficult to find suitable equipment

C the show needs financial support D the show has been staged in many places

Question 55: For Robin Cousins, the aim of the rehearsal is .

A to keep in time with the music B to adjust the spotlights

C to be acquainted with the stage D to position the skaters on the ice

Question 56: Cousins's theory on how to produce shows for different audiences is that .

C he presents performances in an unexpected way D he varies the routines every night

Question 57: It is suggested in paragraph 5 that skating in shows .

A enables skaters to visit a variety of places B is as competitive as other forms of skating

Question 58: The pronoun "them" in paragraph 5 refers to .

Question 59: The phrase "the hard way" in paragraph 5 most likely means .

Question 60: Which of the following is the writer's conclusion of Holiday on Ice?

A Olympic ice-skating is more enjoyable than Holiday on Ice.

B Everyone should enjoy watching Holiday on Ice.

C Holiday on Ice requires more skills than Olympic ice-skating.

D It is hard to know who really enjoys Holiday on Ice.

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 61 to 70.

Being aware of one’s own emotions – recognizing and acknowledging feelings as they happen – is at the very heart of Emotional Intelligence And this awareness encompasses not only moods but also thoughts about those moods People who are able to monitor their feelings as they arise are less likely to be ruled by them and are thus better able to manage their emotions

Managing emotions does not mean suppressing them; nor does it mean giving free rein to every feeling Psychologist Daniel Goleman, one of several authors who have popularized the notion of Emotional Intelligence, insisted that the goal

is balance and that every feeling has value and significance As Goleman said, “A life without passion would be a dull wasteland of neutrality, cut off and isolated from the richness of life itself.” Thus, we manage our emotions by expressing

them in an appropriate manner Emotions can also be managed by engaging in activities that cheer us up, soothe our

hurts, or reassure us when we feel anxious

Clearly, awareness and management of emotions are not independent For instance, you might think that individuals

who seem to experience their feelings more intensely than others would be less able to manage them However, a critical

component of awareness of emotions is the ability to assign meaning to them – to know why we are experiencing a particular feeling or mood Psychologists have found that, among individuals who experience intense emotions, individual

differences in the ability to assign meaning to those feelings predict differences in the ability to manage them In other

words, if two individuals are intensely angry, the one who is better able to understand why he or she is angry will also be better able to manage the anger

Self-motivation refers to strong emotional self-control, which enables a person to get moving and pursue worthy goals,

persist at tasks even when frustrated, and resist the temptation to act on impulse Resisting impulsive behavior is, according to Goleman, “the root of all emotional self-control.”

Of all the attributes of Emotional Intelligence, the ability to postpone immediate gratification and to persist in working toward some greater future gain is most closely related to success – whether one is trying to build a business, get a college degree, or even stay on a diet One researcher examined whether this trait can predict a child’s success in school The study showed that 4-year-old children who can delay instant gratification in order to advance toward some future goal

will be “far superior as students” when they graduate from high school than will 4-year-olds who are not able to resist the impulse to satisfy their immediate wishes

Question 61: Which of the following can we infer from paragraph 1?

A If people pay attention to their feelings, they will not be able to manage them.

B If people pay attention to their feelings, they can control their emotions better.

C People who can manage their emotions will be controlled by them.

D Some people can understand their feelings better than others.

A wrote about Emotional Intelligence

B studied how people manage their emotions

C trained people to increase their Emotional Intelligence

D treated patients who had emotional problems

Question 66: The word “critical” in paragraph 3 is closest in meaning to .

Question 67: The word “them” in paragraph 3 refers to .

Question 68: In paragraph 3, the author explains the concept of awareness and management of emotions by .

A giving an example of why people get angry

B describing how people learn to control their emotions

C comparing how two people might respond to an intense emotion

D explaining why some people are not aware of their emotions
