Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C or D on your answer sheet to indicate the
answer to each of the questions.
Since the world became industrialized, the number of animal species that have either become extinct
or have neared extinction has increased. Bengal tigers, for instance, which once roamed the jungles in vast
numbers, now number only about 2,300. By the year 2025, it is estimated that they will become extinct.
What is alarming about the case of the Bengal tiger is that this extinction will have been caused almost
entirely by poachers who, according to some sources, are not always interested in material gain but in
personal gratification. This is an example of the callousness that is contributing to the problem of extinction.
Animals such as the Bengal tiger, as well as other endangered species, are valuable parts of the world’s
ecosystem. International laws protecting these animals must be enacted to ensure their survival – and the
survival of our planet.
Countries around the world have begun to deal with the problem in various ways. Some countries, in
an effort to circumvent the problem, have allocated large amounts of land to animals reserves. They then
charge admission prices to help defray the costs of maintaining the parks, and they often must also depend on
world organizations for support. This money enables them to invest in equipment and patrols to protect the
animals. Another response to the increase in animal extinction is an international boycott of products made
from endangered species. This has had some effect, but by itself it will not prevent animals from being hunted
and killed.
Question 37. What is the main topic of the passage?
A. Endangered species B. International boycotts C. Problems with industrialization D. The
Bengal tiger
Question 38. The word “callousness” could be best replaced by which of the following?
A. independence B. insensitivity C. indirectness D. incompetence
Question 39: The previous passage is divided into two paragraphs in order to contrast:

C. A comparison and a contrast D. Specific and general information
Question 40. What does the word “this” refer to in the passage?
A. Bengal tiger B. Killing animals for personal satisfaction
C. The decrease in the Bengal tiger population D. Interest in material gain
Question 41. What does the term “international boycott” refer to?
 A. Defraying the cost of maintaining national parks B. A global increase in animal survival
C. Buying and selling of animal products overseas D. A refusal to buy animal products worldwide
Question 42. Which of the following best describes the author’s attitude?
A. concerned B. indifferent C. surprised D. forgiving
Read the following passage and mark the correct answer to each of the questions
May 7, 1840, was the birthday of one of the most famous Russian composers of the nineteenth century
Peter Illich Tchaikovsky. The son of a mining inspector, Tchaikovsky studied music as a child and later
studied composition at the St. Petersburg Conservatory. His greatest period of productivity occurred between
1876 and 1890, during which time he enjoyed the patronage of Madame von Meck, a woman he never met,
who gave him a living stipend of about $1,000.00 a year. Madame von Meck later terminated her friendship
with Tchaikovsky, as well as his living allowance, when she, herself, was facing financial difficulties. It was
during the time of Madame von Meck's patronage, however, that Tchaikovsky created the music for which he
is most famous, including the music for the ballets of Swan Lake and The Sleeping Beauty.
Tchaikovsky's music, well known for its rich melodic and sometimes melancholy passages, was one of the
first that brought serious dramatic music to dance. Before this, little attention had been given to the music
behind the dance. Tchaikovsky died on November 6, 1893, ostensibly of cholera, though there are now some
scholars who argue that he committed suicide.
