practical information, too, even on
the types of telescopes you can buy
a-You don't regard this a definitive
guide to astronomy, do you?
b-I think you need to know a fair
bit about astronomy before you can
follow this
c-Astronomy is evolving rapidly so

HUSBAND:I'd love to! But it would be
hard going for at least three years!
WİFE:
HUSBAND:That's good point. Maybe, we
shouldn't put it off any longer

In modern times, it was perhaps the
"gentleman scientists" of the 19.
century who came closest to a
genuinely objective form of
scientific resarch. These
privilleged amateurs enjoyed a
financial independence which most
scientists today cannot have, which
enabled them to satisfy their
scientific curiosily without the
need to please patrons. With the
growth the scientific research after
World War II, science has become an
expensive occupation. Many
scientists today look back upon the
1960s as a golden age of modern-day
science, when research was mainly
funded by the taxpayer, and
scientific enquiry was seen by
goverments to be part of the public
good, and worth paying for. Today,
the situation is very different.
"Academic freedom" is now often a
little more than an illusion for
most scientist working at
universities or in publicy-funded
research institutes. Moreaover,
science is how largely dominated by
the interest of the industrial
world, and hencehardly deserve the
name "science"
76-According to the
passage, the major difference
between the "gentleman scientists"
and present day ones................
a-has frequently been ignored by
governments and universities
b-is that the former were free to
research as they chose, while the
letter are not
c-has become a highly controversial
issue in universty circles
d-is not nearly so obvious as some
people believe it to be
e-the former were less objective in
their research methods than the
letter one
77-The writer points
out that in the 1960s
......................
a-research activities were largely
carried out under the sponsorship of
industry
b-scientist believed that they were
entering upon a golden age
c-academic feedom was already a
thing of the past
d-scientist carried out their
research activities at the public
expense
e-scientific research largely
concentrated on meeting the needs of
war
78-The writer of the
passage argues that contemporary
scientific research
........................
a-is, to a large extent, controlled
by the interest of industry
b-find its best millieu within the
universities
c-is advancing at an incredibly fast
rate
d-offers one of tje most exciting
and stimulating af careers
e-is far more concerned with theory
than with any practical application
79-The writer of tha
passage regards the "gentleman
scientists" of the 19.century as
privileged
because.....................
a-the coice of field was rapidly
expanding
b-there were plenty of patrons
willing to finance them
c-they were unrestricted by
financial pressures
d-scientific research was still in
its early stage and it was easy to
discover something new
e-there were always well-rewarded
for their efforts
80-The phrase "part
of the public good" in effect
means................
a-deserving a good public
b-setting good standards for society
c-ensuring a better future for
society
d-beneficial of society
e-recognized by the general public
as being good

Some people believe that meat
consumption contributes to famine
and depletes the Earth's natural
resorces. Indeed, it is often argued
that cows and sheep require
pasturage that could be better used
to grow grain for starving millions
in poor cuntries. Additionally,
claims are made that raising
livestock requires more water than
raising plants foods. But both these
argument are illogical. As for the
pasturage4 argument, this ignores
the fact that a large portion of the
Earth's dry land is unsuited to
cultivation. For istance, desert and
mountainous areas are not suitable
for cultivation, but are suitable
for animal grazing. However, modern
comercial farming methods prefer to
raise animals in an enclosed space
feeding them on grains and soybeans.
Unfortunately, the bulk of
commercial livestock is not
range-fed but stall-fed. Stall-fed
animals do not ingest grasses and
shrubs (like they should) but are
fed on unnatural array of grains and
soybeans, which could be eaten by
humans. The argument here, then, is
not that eating meat depletes the
Earth's resources, but that
commercial farming methods do. Such
methods subject livestock to
deplorable living conditions where
infections, antibiotics and
synthetic hormones are common. These
all lead to an unhealty animals and,
byextension, to unhealty food
product.
81-One important
point made in this passage is that
.............................
a-desert and mountainous regions
should be developed as arable for
cultivation
b-the way livestock is raised on
modern farms involves various health
hazards
c-more encouragement should be given
to the application of modern farming
technologies
d-meat production in the developed
world needs to be increased to
combat famine
e-every measure must be taken to
conserve the Earth's natural
resources
82-One argument that
is clearly opposed in the
passage.........................
a-concerns the value of antibiotics
in the raising of healty livestock
b-concerns the introduction of
soybeans in the basic feed for
livestock
c-is related to i the inadequate
methods employed in the prevention
of famine
d-is that livestock need water as
much as plants do
e-is that land used for pasturage
should be utulized for the
cultivation of crops
83-Contrary to what
is often argued, the passage points
out that.....................
a-synhetic hormones can be used to
improve the quality of meat
b-underdevoloped countries need to
adopt modern farming methods in
order to overcome famine
c-grazing for sheep and cows needs
to be upgraded so as to increase
meat production
d-the famine in the world is not
directly related to the consumption
of meat
e-a very extensive part of the
earth's surface is ideally suitable
for the cultivation of crops
84-The writers
attacks present day commercial
farming
methods...........................
a-but admits that there is a higher
production rate than there was with
earlier methods
b-though the end product is
extremely healthy
c-and claims that they are
responsible for depleting the
natural resources of the world
d-though it ensures that there is
suffficent food for everyone
e-because among other things, it
makes no effort to cultivate dry
mountainous regions
85-By the "pasturage
argument" is meant the argument that
....................................
a-the land used for animal grazing
ought to be cultivated and used to
grow grain
b-livestock should be stall-fed on
grains and not allowed to graze
freely
c-cultivated land ought to be turned
into pasturage
d-only cattle that are allowed to
graze freely produce good meat
e-dry mountainous areas could be
watered and turned into good
pasturage

The chief triumph oh this book is
its depiction of Wellington. He is
not simply the famous British
general who defeated Napoleon at
Waterloo. He remains a great general
bu he is also shown to have had feet
of clay inside his splendid boots.
For example, the writer dwells on
Wellington's vanity and his
unattractive lack of generosity in
sharing the credit for his
victories. Thşs is a spendid book.
Never less than interesting, but
always trenchant. It redefines
Wellington without diminishing his
achievements and ends bu reminding
us that it was Napoleon who so
forcefully artucilated a whish that
there should be "a Eorepean code of
laws, a European judiciary... one
peaople in Europe" The ogre's dream
is coming true.

others in his victories
b-his plan of campaing at Waterloo
c-traying to buy people's affection
and support
d-underestimating Napoleon's
strenght
e-failng to consult his subordinates
88-It clear from the
passage that the book under review
differs from traditional biographies
of Wellington..................
a-as his great enemy Napoleon
receives more than his share of
praise
b-as it questions his skills as a
leader
c-because it shows up his human
weakness
d-in attitude, but not in content
e-by putting the emphasis on his
vices, not on his virtues
89-We understand from
the passage that in the book under
review, Napoleon................
a-is simply presented as the big
enemy
b-receives acclaim for envisaging a
united Europe
c-is shown to have had greater
military skills than Wellington
d-and Wellington each admired the
military skills of the other

Fast food is such a pervasive part
of American life that it has become
synonymous American Culture. Fast
food was born in America and it has
swollen into a $106 billion
industry. America export fast food
worlwide and its attendant corporate
culture, has probably been more
influential and done more to destroy
local food economies and cultural
diversity than any government
propaganda program could hope to
accomplish. No corner of the earth
is safe from its presence and no
aspect of life is unaffacted. Fast
food is now found in shopping malls,
airport, hospitals, gas stations,
stadiums, on trains and
increasingly, in schools. There are
23.000 restaurants in one chain
alone, and another 2.000 are being
opened every year. Their effect has
been the same on the millions of
people it feeds daily and on the
people it employs. Fast food culture
has changed how we work, from its
assembly-line kitchens filled with
robotic frying machines to the trite
phrases spoken to customers by its
poorly paid part-time workforce. In
the United States, more than 57
percent of the population eat meals
away from home on any given day and
day spend more money on fast-food
than they do on higher education,
personal computers, or even on new
cars.
91-This passage on
American fast-food industry
....................
a-shows convincingly that is falling
into disfavor
b-is clearly written by someone who
loves good food
c-concentrates on negative aspects
d-gives a ratioanl account of why it
grew so fast
e-reveals the support it received
from government propaganda
92-The world
"swollen"....................
a-emphasizes the speed at which the
industry has grown
b-suggests that the growth is
excessive and unhealty
c-has very positive connotations
d-draws attention to the
inevitability of teh growth of the
industry
e-implies that the industry will
continue to grow on steadily
93-One point that
receives a lot of attention in the
passage is ...................
a-in fact that fast food is now more
popular outside the US than it is
inside
b-tha fact that fast food meets our
dietary needs
c-the consideratioan the fast food
companies show to their employees
d-the far reaching effects of the
fast food industry
e-the idea that in such places as
gas stations and trains fast food is
actually the only practical kind of
food
94-The writer of the
passage clearly regrets the fact
that .......................
a-the fast food companies cannot
afford to pay even their part-time
workers adequate salaries
b-the growth of the fast food
industry has now come to a halt
c-there are still more traditional
restaurants than fast food ones
d-the fast food industry cannot
retain the high standards with which
it started
e-local and traditional styles of
food are being pushed off the market
95-The assertion at
the and of the passage that
Americans spend more money on
fast-food than they do on higher
education.................
a-is a criticism of the amount of
money spent on fast food by
Americans
b-suggesrs that Americans are greedy
for good food
c-means that 57 percent of the
American population has very little
money left over when it has paid for
its food
d-it an indication that higher
education in the US is not expensive
e-is, in the light of the rest of
the passage, is a gross exaggeration

Even though there have been truly
significant advances in modern
medicine health problems still
abound and couse untold misery.
Although hearth disease and cancer
were rare at the beginning of the
20th century today these two
diseases strike with increasing
frequency, in spite of billions of
dollars in research of combat them,
and in spite of tremendous advances
in diagnostic and surgical
techniques. In America, one person
in three suffers from allergies, one
in ten has ulcers and one in five is
mentally ill. Every year, a quarter
of a million infants are born with a
birth defect and undergo expensive
surgery, or are hidedn away in
institutions. Other degenerative
diseases such as arthritis, multiple
sclerosis, diabetes and chronic
fatigue afflict a significant
majority of Americans. Furher
learning disabilities make life
miserable for seven million young
people and their parents, These
diseases were extremely rare only a
generation or two ago. Today,
chronic illness afflicts nearly half
of all Americans and causes three
out of four deaths in the United
States
96-One point that is
stressed in thi passage about the
American people is
that...............
a-they are less laible to
degenerative disase than most other
people
b-the rate of infant mortality among
them is rasing rapidly
c-there is alarming lack of
communication between parents and
their childiren
d-the incidence of cancer among them
is slowly being reduced due to
medical advences
e-in one way or another, a very
large proportion of them have health
problems.
97-According to the
passage, cancer and heart diseases
are on the
increase..................
a-and most of the cures have serious
side-effect
b-due to problems of diagnosis which
for the present seem insurmountable
c-since research so far carried out
in these fields has been quite
inadequate
d-even though a great deal of money
is being spent on research into them
e-but every little is being done by
the authorities to combat them
98-The writer of this
passage draws our attention
to.........................
a-the fact that it is young people
who are the most affected by
degenerative diseases
b-the paradox that medicine today
has improved remarkably, but more
and more people are suffering from
various diseases
c-the commanly-held view that cancer
will, in a few decades, be
completely eradicated
d-the argument that good helath
depends upon a healty diet and early
diagnosis
e-the possibility that it is mental
rather than physical health that is
going to be the major problem of the
future in the US
99-The passage
stresses that ill-health gives rise
to a great deal of
mistery...................
a-which is not confined to the
patient alone
b-which is largely associated with
pain
c-especially in the case of chronic
illness
d-even before an accurate diagnosis
has been made
e-especially when the symptoms are
severe
100-The term
"significant majority" refers
to............
a-an articulate majority
b-a statistically small majority
c-a large and important majority
d-a rapidly, increasing majority
e-am unexpected but continuing
majority
