When another old cave is discovered in the south of France, it is not usually news. Rather, it is an ordinary
event. Such discoveries are so frequent these days that hardly anybody pays heed to them.
However, when the Lascaux cave complex was discovered in 1940, the world was amazed. Painted directly on
its walls were hundreds of scenes showing how people lived thousands of years ago. The scenes show people
hunting animals, such as bison or wild cats. Other images depict birds and, most noticeably, horses, which appear
in more than 300 wall images, by far outnumbering all other animals.
Early artists drawing these animals accomplished a monumental and difficult task. They did not limit
themselves to the easily accessible walls but earned their painting materials to spaces that required climbing steep
walls or crawling into narrow passages in the Lascaux complex. Unfortunately, the paintings have been exposed to
the destructive action of water and temperature changes, which easily wear the images away. Because the Lascaux
caves have many entrances, air movement has also damaged the images inside. Although they are not out in the
open air, where natural light would have destroyed them long ago, many of the images have deteriorated and are
barely recognizable. To prevent further damage, the site was closed to tourists in 1963, 23 years after it was
discovered.

answer to each of the following questions from 31 to 36.
You know what they say; find a job you love and you will never work a day in your life. So, if you are thinking
about what to do with your life, this may be something to consider. Choosing a career can be difficult Especially'
because there are so many jobs to choose from and many things to think about, such as qualifications and financial
rewards. So how do you pick a career? The only answer seems to be “choose one that makes you feel that you are
getting paid for doing something you truly love".
Unless you have grown up with a talent or are keen on something that you can make a career out of, you need
to consider certain things about yourself. What suits your personality? We are all different and just because your
best friend wants to be a doctor, this does not mean that you should follow. You need to make
an informed decision. This means thinking carefully about the path you need to follow to get that job. Are you
willing to get the training or education needed? You must also consider why you really want to do it. If it's just
because it’s well paid, then sometime in the future you are going to feel “empty”, even with a healthy bank account.
Nowadays. there are plenty of online career sites, but the main part has to come from you. You need to be
honest and measure your skills and talents realistically. Also, you may need to talk to your parents who have their
own ideas, based on their own experiences, about what you should do. They have your best interests at
heart. They don’t want to see you having financial problems or being unemployed. But at the end of the day, it is
your life. There is no point in being miserable for the next forty years just to please someone else.
Question 31. What is the main idea of the paragraph about choosing a career?
A. Following your friends' career choices is the best approach.
B. Financial rewards should be the only factor in choosing a career.
C. Choosing a career should involve personal passion and careful consideration.
D. Online career sites are the most important resources for job seekers.
Question 32. The word informed in paragraph 2 mostly means ______ .
A. unexpected B. quick C. wise D. hard
Question 33. What should you consider about yourself when choosing a career?
A. your favorite hobbies B. your skills and talents
C. your friends' opinions D. your family's wishes
Question 34. Which reason is NOT mentioned in the text for choosing a career?
A. passion for the work B. financial stability
C. family expectations D. job security
Question 35. What does the author suggest about choosing a job for financial reasons?
A. It is always a good choice. B. It may lead to feeling unfulfilled.

A good deal of fascinating research has been done about the reading patterns of young people, and it is
surprising to discover at what an early age children start expressing preferences for particular kinds of books. A
recent report, which examined in detail the reading habits of primary-school children, showed that even seven-
year-old boys and girls have clear views about what they want to read. Girls, in general, read more, and far more
girls than boys preferred reading stories. Boys were showing a taste for the more instant appeal of picture stories,
or else books about their hobbies.
These tastes continue unchanged until the children are teenagers. Apparently girls read more in general, but
more fiction in particular. You could say that there are more opportunities for girls to read fiction: magazines
encourage the fiction habit in girls in their early teens, and by their late teens they have probably moved on to the
adult women’s magazines. Teenage boys tend to buy magazines about their hobbies: motorcycles, heavy transport
and so on.
Question 31: Which title best represents the paragraph about the reading patterns of young people?
A. "The Impact of Magazines on Teen Reading Habits" B. "Reading Preferences from Childhood to Adolescence"

Question 34. Which type of magazine do teenage boys tend to buy?
A. fashion magazines B. fiction magazines C. hobby-related magazines D. health magazines
Question 35. According to the passage, what do girls move on to in their late teens?
A. children’s books B. adult women’s magazines
C. comic books D. travel guides

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 following questions from 31 to 36.
One of the greatest security threats in the online world is computer hacking. Hackers are people who illegally
enter systems. They may alter or delete information, steal private information, or spread viruses that can damage
or destroy files. But how exactly can a hacker get into a system to do these things?
Most hackers use information called protocols that are built into computer software. These protocols allow
computers to interact with one another. Protocols are sort of like computer police officers. When a computer
connects to another system, the protocols check to see if the access is valid. The protocols can also determine how
much information can be shared between the two systems. Hackers can manipulate the protocols to get unlimited
access to a computer system.
In fact, just the act of entering a computer network is commonly considered passive hacking. Passive hackers
get a rush from just being able to access a challenging system like a bank or military network. Another kind of
hacker tries to do damage to a system. After hacking into systems, these hackers release viruses or alter, delete, or
take information. Known as active hackers, they are the more dangerous of the two.
The easiest way to protect a system is with a good password. Long and unusual passwords are harder for
hackers to guess. For even greater security, some online services now use “password-plus” systems. In this case,
users first put in a password and then put in a second code that changes after the user accesses the site. Users
either have special cards or devices that show them new code to use the next time. Even if a hacker steals the
password, they won’t have the code. Or if the hacker somehow gets the code, they still don’t know the password.
Question 31.What should be the main title of the passage?
A. Hackers and Computer Security B. Funny Things Hackers Do
C. Famous Hackers D. Good Ways to Stop Hackers
Question 32. The word "threats" in paragraph 1 is CLOSEST in meaning to ____________.
A. danger B. safety C. solution D. benefit
Question 33. What do hackers do to get into a computer?
A. manipulating its codes B. replacing security programs
C. making a new password D. spreading viruses
Question 34. Which of the following can NOT be inferred about active hackers?
A. They make use of the hacked information. B. They deactivate the protocols in computers.
James,
Neil rang. He can’t play tennis with you
tomorrow unless you lend him a racket
because his is broken and can’t be
repaired.
Notification
C. They are more warning than passive ones. D. They take over the computers systematically
Question 35. What is the easiest way to protect a system?

C. Sharing passwords D. Using the same password everywhere

We celebrated Earth Day in my city last week. The idea of this special day began in the 1960s when life was
very different. Few people talked or even thought about the environment. Most people had no idea how dirty our
air and water were. This attitude bothered Gaylord Nelson, who was a senator in the US government, and he had
an idea. If people around the world knew that the planet was in danger, they might work harder to save it, so he
just needed to get their attention. The first Earth Day was just in the United States but it led to events every year all
around the world on April 22 or the nearest weekend, depending on where you are.
In my town, last Saturday afternoon lots of people rode their bikes from the park, around the town together
and back to the park, taking as much time as they possibly could, so that the cars had to wait. Then we talked to all
the drivers in cars which just had one person in them, to explain how wasteful that is and how much pollution it
causes. The idea was to make people think about how much they use their cars. In other places, people collected
plastic bags for a week and then made a pile of them in the town square. You can do anything as long as it makes
people of all ages come together for a few hours and talk about the environment. Last year we had a big music
event for young people. Some people said it was a waste of time, but there was information for people to read and
announcements between the bands about how to help protect the environment.

When another old cave is discovered in the south of France, it is not usually news. Rather, it is an ordinary event. Such discoveries are so frequent these days that hardly anybody pays heed to them. However, when the Lascaux cave complex was discovered in 1940, the world was amazed. Painted directly on its walls were hundreds of scenes showing how people lived thousands of years ago. The scenes show people hunting animals, such as bison or wild cats. Other images depict birds and, most noticeably, horses, which appear in more than 300 wall images, by far outnumbering all other animals. Early artists drawing these animals accomplished a monumental and difficult task. They did not limit themselves to the easily accessible walls but earned their painting materials to spaces that required climbing steep walls or crawling into narrow passages in the Lascaux complex. Unfortunately, the paintings have been exposed to the destructive action of water and temperature changes, which easily wear the images away. Because the Lascaux caves have many entrances, air movement has also damaged the images inside. Although they are not out in the open air, where natural light would have destroyed them long ago, many of the images have deteriorated and are barely recognizable. To prevent further damage, the site was closed to tourists in 1963, 23 years after it was discovered. (https://www.ets.org/toefl,junior/prepare/standard_sample_questions/reading_comprehension) Question 31. Which title best summarizes the main idea of the passage? A. Hidden prehistoric paintings B.

You know what they say; find a job you love and you will never work a day in your life. So, if you are thinking about what to do with your life, this may be something to consider. Choosing a career can be difficult Especially' because there are so many jobs to choose from and many things to think about, such as qualifications and financial rewards. So how do you pick a career? The only answer seems to be “choose one that makes you feel that you are getting paid for doing something you truly love". Unless you have grown up with a talent or are keen on something that you can make a career out of, you need to consider certain things about yourself. What suits your personality? We are all different and just because your best friend wants to be a doctor, this does not mean that you should follow. You need to make an informed decision. This means thinking carefully about the path you need to follow to get that job. Are you willing to get the training or education needed? You must also consider why you really want to do it. If it's just because it’s well paid, then sometime in the future you are going to feel “empty”, even with a healthy bank account. Nowadays. there are plenty of online career sites, but the main part has to come from you. You need to be honest and measure your skills and talents realistically. Also, you may need to talk to your parents who have their own ideas, based on their own experiences, about what you should do. They have your best interests at heart. They don’t want to see you having financial problems or being unemployed. But at the end of the day, it is your life. There is no point in being miserable for the next forty years just to please someone else. Question 31. What is the main idea of the paragraph about choosing a career? A. Following your friends' career choices is the best approach. B. Financial rewards should be the only factor in choosing a career. C. Choosing a career should involve personal passion and careful consideration. D. Online career sites are the most important resources for job seekers. Question 32. The word informed in paragraph 2 mostly means ______ . A. unexpected B. quick C. wise D. hard Question 33. What should you consider about yourself when choosing a career? A. your favorite hobbies B. your skills and talents C. your friends' opinions D. your family's wishes Question 34. Which reason is NOT mentioned in the text for choosing a career?

A good deal of fascinating research has been done about the reading patterns of young people, and it is surprising to discover at what an early age children start expressing preferences for particular kinds of books. A recent report, which examined in detail the reading habits of primary-school children, showed that even seven- year-old boys and girls have clear views about what they want to read. Girls, in general, read more, and far more girls than boys preferred reading stories. Boys were showing a taste for the more instant appeal of picture stories, or else books about their hobbies. These tastes continue unchanged until the children are teenagers. Apparently girls read more in general, but more fiction in particular. You could say that there are more opportunities for girls to read fiction: magazines encourage the fiction habit in girls in their early teens, and by their late teens they have probably moved on to the adult women’s magazines. Teenage boys tend to buy magazines about their hobbies: motorcycles, heavy transport and so on. Question 31: Which title best represents the paragraph about the reading patterns of young people? A.

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 following questions from 31 to 36. One of the greatest security threats in the online world is computer hacking. Hackers are people who illegally enter systems. They may alter or delete information, steal private information, or spread viruses that can damage or destroy files. But how exactly can a hacker get into a system to do these things? Most hackers use information called protocols that are built into computer software. These protocols allow computers to interact with one another. Protocols are sort of like computer police officers. When a computer connects to another system, the protocols check to see if the access is valid. The protocols can also determine how much information can be shared between the two systems. Hackers can manipulate the protocols to get unlimited access to a computer system. In fact, just the act of entering a computer network is commonly considered passive hacking. Passive hackers get a rush from just being able to access a challenging system like a bank or military network. Another kind of hacker tries to do damage to a system. After hacking into systems, these hackers release viruses or alter, delete, or take information. Known as active hackers, they are the more dangerous of the two. The easiest way to protect a system is with a good password. Long and unusual passwords are harder for hackers to guess. For even greater security, some online services now use “password-plus” systems. In this case, users first put in a password and then put in a second code that changes after the user accesses the site. Users either have special cards or devices that show them new code to use the next time. Even if a hacker steals the password, they won’t have the code. Or if the hacker somehow gets the code, they still don’t know the password. Question 31.What should be the main title of the passage? A. Hackers and Computer Security B. Funny Things Hackers Do C. Famous Hackers D. Good Ways to Stop Hackers Question 32. The word "threats" in paragraph 1 is CLOSEST in meaning to ____________. A. danger B. safety C. solution D. benefit Question 33. What do hackers do to get into a computer? A. manipulating its codes B. replacing security programs C. making a new password D. spreading viruses Question 34. Which of the following can NOT be inferred about active hackers? A. They make use of the hacked information. B. They deactivate the protocols in computers. James, Neil rang. He can’t play tennis with you tomorrow unless you lend him a racket because his is broken and can’t be repaired. Notification

We celebrated Earth Day in my city last week. The idea of this special day began in the 1960s when life was very different. Few people talked or even thought about the environment. Most people had no idea how dirty our air and water were. This attitude bothered Gaylord Nelson, who was a senator in the US government, and he had an idea. If people around the world knew that the planet was in danger, they might work harder to save it, so he just needed to get their attention. The first Earth Day was just in the United States but it led to events every year all around the world on April 22 or the nearest weekend, depending on where you are. In my town, last Saturday afternoon lots of people rode their bikes from the park, around the town together and back to the park, taking as much time as they possibly could, so that the cars had to wait. Then we talked to all the drivers in cars which just had one person in them, to explain how wasteful that is and how much pollution it causes. The idea was to make people think about how much they use their cars. In other places, people collected plastic bags for a week and then made a pile of them in the town square. You can do anything as long as it makes people of all ages come together for a few hours and talk about the environment. Last year we had a big music event for young people. Some people said it was a waste of time, but there was information for people to read and announcements between the bands about how to help protect the environment. Question 31.
