Amparo Lasén, the Spanish sociologist who conducted the study found that Londoners use their cell phones the least in public. If they are with (24)_____people, they prefer to let calls be answered by voice mail (a recorded message) and then they check for messages later. If the English do answer a call on the street, they seem to dislike talking with others around. They tend to move away from a crowded sidewalk and seek out a
place (25) ______they cannot be heard, such as the far side of a subway entrance or even the edge of a street. They seem to feel that the danger of the traffic is preferable to the risk of having their conversation be overheard. This has led to a behavior that Laser has called "clustering." At a busy time of day on the streets of London, you may find small crowds of cell phone users grouped together, each one talking into a cell phone. Even when it is raining- as it is often in London- people still prefer not to hold their conversations where others could hear. They talk (26) _______ their umbrellas or in a doorway. In Paris, however, there are stricter rules about how and when to use cell phones. It is not considered polite to use a phone in a restaurant, (27) _______, though it might be acceptable in the more informal setting of a café. One special custom that has developed in cafés seems unique to Paris. Young women often place their cell phones on the table beside them to signal that they are expecting someone. When the friend arrives, the phone is put away. In fact, the French are generally very disapproving of phone use in public and are quick to (28) _________ that disapproval, even to strangers.

Try to imagine what life would be like if there were no electric lights, no television, or no cars. What if you had no running water to take a shower and no refrigerator to keep your food cold? Life would be tough without these great inventions. Since ancient times, people have been inventing new machines, materials, and ways of doing things. The people who come up with new things are called inventors. Sometimes an inventor makes an invention to solve a problem. Sometimes an inventor discovers something new by accident. Everyone probably has his or her favorite inventions. One great invention was the printing press. A German named Johannes Gutenberg in the 1400s invented a press that made it easy to print books. Books became much more common after the invention of the printing press. The books helped other inventors make new things. The invention of the steam engine around 1700 led to the Industrial Revolution. Inventors made many new machines that were powered by steam engines. They invented locomotives, steamboats, and all kinds of factory machines. Another great invention, the internal combustion engine, led to the invention of automobiles in the late 1800s. Inventors made better and better internal combustion engines. These are the engines we use today in cars, trucks, buses, and airplanes. The discovery of electricity led to many wonderful inventions. Many scientists studied electricity. An American inventor named Thomas A. Edison invented the electric lamp, phonograph, and other things that ran on electricity in the late 1800s. New things are invented today faster than ever before. Inventors are making new kitchen appliances, toys, computers, video games, telephones, and all kinds of other things. Question 29: The passage mainly ____. A. lists the inventions made since ancient times B. describes how inventors work to invent things C. explains why inventions have been made so far D. talks about some of the most significant inventions Question 30: The phrase "ran on" is closest in meaning to _______. A. used B. created C. consumed D. stored Question 31: What does inventor make an invention for? A. To solve a problem B. To solve a problem and discovers something new by accident C. To discover something new by accident D. To take up her/him favorite inventions Question 32: Which of the following is associated with Industrial Revolution? A. the printing press B. the discovery of electricity C. the steam engine D. the internal combustion engine Question 33: The words "These" in the passage refers to _______. A. inventors B. internal combustion engines
C. automobiles D. many wonderful inventions 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 34 to 40. Each advance in microscopic technique has provided scientists with new perspective, on the function of living organisms and the nature of matter itself. The invention of the visible-light microscope late in the sixteenth century introduced a previously unknown realm of single-celled plants and animals. In the twentieth century, electron microscopes have provided direct views of viruses and minuscule surface structures. Now another type of microscope, one that utilizes X rays rather than light or electrons, offers a different way of examining tiny details; it should extend human perception still farther into the natural world. The dream of building an X-ray microscope dates to 1895; its development, however, was virtually hafted in the 1940's because the development of the electron microscope was progressing rapidly. During the 1940's electron microscopes routinely achieved resolution better than that possible with a visible-light microscope, while the performance of X-ray microscopes resisted improvement. In recent years, however, interest in X-ray microscopes has revived, largely because of advances such as the development of new sources of X-ray illumination. As a result, the brightness available today is millions of times that of X-ray tubes, which, for most of the century, were the only available sources of soft X-rays. The new X-ray microscopes considerably improve on the resolution provided by optical microscopes. They can also be used to map the distribution of certain chemical elements. Some can form pictures in extremely short times; others hold the promise of special capabilities such as three-dimensional imaging. Unlike conventional electron microscopy, X-ray microscopy enables specimens to be kept in air and in water, which means that biological samples can be studied under conditions similar to their natural state. The illumination used, so-called soft X rays in the wavelength range of twenty to forty angstroms (an angstrom is one ten-billionth of a meter), is also sufficiently penetrating to image intact biological cells in many cases. Because of the wavelength of the X rays used, soft X-ray microscopes will never match the highest resolution possible with electron microscopes. Rather, their special properties will make possible investigations that will complement those performed with light- and electron-based instruments. Question 34: What does the passage mainly discuss? A. The detail seen through a microscope B. Sources of illumination for microscope C. A new kind of microscope D. Outdated microscopic techniques Question 35: The word "minuscule" in the first paragraph is opposite in meaning to ______. A. circular B. dangerous C. complex D. enormous Question 36: The word "enables" in paragraph 3 is closest in meaning to ______. A. constitutes B. specifies C. expands D. allows Question 37: Why did it take so long to develop the X-ray microscope? A. Funds for research were insufficient. B. The source of illumination was not bright enough until recently C. Materials used to manufacture X-ray tubes were difficult to obtain. D. X-ray microscopes were too complicated to operate. Question 38: The word "it" in paragraph 1 refers to ______. A. a type of microscope B. human perception C. the natural world D. light Question 39: According to the passage, the invention of the visible-light microscope allowed scientists to ________. A. see viruses directly B. develop the electron microscope later on C. understand more about the distribution of the chemical elements D. discover single-celled plants and animals they had never seen before Question 40: Based on the information in the passage, what can be inferred about X-ray microscopes in the future? A. They will probably replace electron microscopes altogether. B. They will eventually be much cheaper to produce than they are now. C. They will provide information not available from other kinds of microscopes. D. They will eventually chance the illumination range that they now use.
