Section B
Passage One
Human beings enjoy challenges. Many of them like physical challenges. They ask themlves questions like the: How fast can I run? How high can I climb? How deep can I dive? How far can I swim? How long can I hold my breath? How much can I lift? How high can I jump? Becau people enjoy challenges, they like to play sports and watch other people play sports. They like climbing, running, diving, lifting, jumping, and so on. Every four years millions of people all over the world enjoy the international sports competition called the Olympics. There are challenges that are not physical challenges. There are social and intellectual challenges, too. Leonardo da Vinci, who lived in Italy during the fifteenth century, enjoyed every possible challenge. He was an artist and painted the well known picture, theMona Lisa. He was an engineer who made plans for a city with roads under the street for traffic. He was an inventor who invented a device to let people breathe under water. He was a scientist, and he learned a great deal about human structure.
siggAnother kind of challenge faced the Egyptians between 4,000 and 5,000 years ago when they decid
ed to build the first pyramid. They ud six million tons of rock. That is e-nough to build a ten foot wall around all of France. Four hundred thousand men worked for twenty years to build it.
So, for thousands of years, people accepted challenges. Today we still have many challenges before us. Medical science faces the challenges of conquering the many dias which still attack human beings. Engineers and planners must build new cities and new kinds of transportation. Scientists must develop new forms of energy. And many of us are interested in the challenge of space. We live in an age of challenge. Questions 16 to 18 are bad on the passage you have just heard.

Almost ten men in every hundred suffer from color blindness in some way; women are luckier: only about one in two hundred is affected in this manner. Perhaps, after all, it is safe to be driven by a woman.
There are different forms of color blindness. In some cas a man may not be able to e deep red. He may think that red, orange and yellow are all shades of green. Sometimes a person can't tell the difference between blue and green. In rare cas an unlucky man may e everything in shades of green.
Human beings have favorite colors. Blue is often popular becau it is the color which makes us think of wide fields and forests. Yellow is the cheerful color of the sun. On the other hand, red is the color of blood and fire. It makes some people think of accidents, danger and blood. Black is the color of the night. In the dark, we can't e what is around us, some are sometimes afraid of the unknown and do not like black as a color. Perhaps that is why it is often the color of mourning. Questions 19 to 21 are bad on the passage you have just heard.
19.What can we learn from the passage?
20.What happened to some color-blind people?
21.What color is associated with cheerfulness?
Passage Three

Despite the prence of workaholics, there is a growing realization in the United States that too much work demand can be physically and mentally harmful. Many people have been rebelling against the work ethic, saying that no job is so important as to damage per sonal relationships and rob people of relaxation. There has been a shift in values, with more emphasis being given to personal relationships and relaxation. Leisure time provides opportunities to find personal satisfaction and freedom from the routine of work.
Incread leisure time in the United States has not altered the idea that work and play are distinct activities. This distinction is clear-cut; there are "work-hours" and "after work-hours". There is a belief that it is desirable "to work hard and play hard" and undesirable to combine the two. In many offices, stores, and factories socializing among employees is discouraged. An employee under pressure at work often cannot afford to respond to social calls and visits. However,
the amount of personal contact on the job depends on the nature of the work. There may be more social interaction between teachers in a school than between scientists doing independent rearch. Nevertheless, work and play are usually perceived and maintained as parate activities. Questions 22 to 25 are bad on the passage you have just heard.
22.What is the result of too much work demand?
23.In order to rebel against the work ethic, what do many people believe now?
24.What do people expect an employee under pressure at work to do?
25.What does the speaker imply by saying "the distinction is clear-cut"?
Section C
One night in April 1912, a huge new ocean liner, the Titanic, was crossing in the At lantic. She was just about the most (26) luxurious ship that had ever been built. She was going very fast, which was (27) dangerous becau there were icebergs around and it was very dark that night. The pasngers were all having a good time when the ship suddenly (28) struck one of the icebergs.
The ship began to (29) sink and the pasngers tried to escape, but there were not e-nough lifeboats since nobody thought they would ever be (30) necessary. Eight white rockets were fired into the air in order to get help. Another ship, the California, was (31) passing nearby. An officer and another sailor on it saw the rockets. They thought that perhaps people were having a party on (32) board of the Titanic and were just (33) firing the rockets in fun. (34) Anyway they did wake the captain. But the captain was too sleepy to understand and the California just went on sailing away, in another direction.
When the Titanic finally went down, (35) a dance band was still playing music up on the deck until the last few conds. They were trying to keep the pasngers calm. Two thirds of the pasngers were drowned. (36) It was one of the greatest a disasters of all time.
