Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, or D on your answer sheer to indicate the
correct answer to each of the questions from 10 to 14.
In the past, technology and progress was very slow. People “invented” farming 12,000 years ago
but it took 8,000 years for the idea to go around the world. Then, about 3,500 years ago, people called
“potters” used round wheels to turn and make plates. But it took hundreds of years before some clever
person thought, if we join two wheels together and make them bigger, we can use them to move things
In the last few centuries, things have begun to move faster. Take a 20th-century invention like the
aeroplane, for example. The first acroplane flight on 17 December 1903 only lasted 12 seconds, and the
plane only went 37 metres. It can't have been very exciting to watch, but that flight changed the world.
Sixteen years later, the first plane flew across the Atlantic, and only fifty years after that, men walked on
the moon. Technology is now changing our world faster and faster. So what will the future bring?
One of the first changes will be the materials we use. Scientists have just invented an amazing new
material called graphene, and soon we will use it to do lots of things. With graphene batteries in your
mobile, it will take a few seconds to charge your phone or download a thousand gigabytes of information!
Today, we make most products in factories, but in the future, scientists will invent living materials. Then
we won't make things like cars and furniture in factories - we will grow them!
Thirty years ago, people couldn't have imagined social media like Twitter and Facebook. Now we
can't llve without them. But this is only the start. Right now, scientists are putting microchips in some
disabled people's brains, to help them see, hear and communicate better. In the future, we may all use
these technologies. We won't need smartphones to use social media or search the internet because the
internet will be in our heads!
More people will go into space in the future, too. Space tourism has already begun, and a hundred
years from now, there may be many hotels in space. One day, we may get most of our energy from space
too. In 1941, the writer Isaac Asimov wrote about a solar power station in space. People laughed at his
idea then, but we should have listened to him. Today, many people are trying to develop a space solar
power station. After all, the sun always shines above the clouds!
Question 10: The writer says that in the past ___________.
A. people didn't invent many things B. people didn't want to use wheels
C. most inventions were to do with farming D. it took time for new ideas to change things
Question 11: Why does the writer use the example of the aeroplane?
A. To explain why transport changed in the 20th century.
B. Because he thinks It's the most important invention in history.
C. To explain how space travel started.
D. To show how an invention developed quickly.
Question 12: What does the writer say about the future of communication?
A. We can't know what the most popular social media will be.
B. Microchips will become faster.
C. We won't use the internet as much.
D. We won't need devices like smartphones.

Question 13: What does the writer say about space solar power?

B. It's a science fiction idea, and nobody really thinks it will work.
C. It's much easier to build a solar power station in space than on Earth.
D. People tried it in 1941, but they didn't succeed.
Question 14: The best title for the article would be ___________.
A. Man in space B. Will computers rule the world?

(307646) 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 15 to 22.
[1] Advertising helps people recognize a particular brand, persuades them to try it, and tries to keep
them loyal to it. Brand loyalty is perhaps the most important goal of consumer advertising. Whether they
produce cars, canned foods or cosmetics, manufacturers want their customers to make repeated purchases.
[2] The quality of the product will encourage this, of course, but so, too, will affect advertising.
Advertising relies on the techniques of market research to identify potential users of a product. [3]
Are they homemakers or professional people? Are they young or old? Are they city dwellers or country
dwellers? Such questions have a bearing on where and when ads should be placed. By studying
readership breakdowns for newspapers and magazines as well as television ratings and other statistics, an
advertising agency can decide on the best way of reaching potential buyers. Detailed research and
marketing expertise are essential today when advertising budgets can run into thousands of millions of
dollars. [4]
Advertising is a fast-paced, high-pressure industry. There is a constant need for creative ideas that
will establish a personality for a product in the public's mind. Current developments in advertising
increase the need for talented workers.
In the past, the majority of advertising was aimed at the traditional white family - breadwinner
father, non-working mother, and two children. Research now reveals that only about 6 percent of
American households fit this stereotype. Instead, society is fragmented into many groups, with working
mothers, single people and older people on the rise. To be most successful, advertising must identify a
particular segment and aim its message toward that group.
Advertising is also making use of new technologies. Computer graphics are used to grab the
attention of consumers and to help them see products in a new light. The use of computer graphics in a
commercial for canned goods, for instance, gave a new image to the tin can.
Question 15: What does the passage mainly discuss?
A. How to develop a successful advertising plan.
B. New techniques and technologies of market research
C. The central role of advertising in selling products.
D. The history of advertising in the United States.
Question 16: The word “this” in the first paragraph refers to ___________.
