I had never seen a house on fire before, so, one evening when I heard fire engines with loud

people. We could see the fire only from a distance because the police would not allow any one near the
building on fire.
What a terrible scene I saw that day! Huge flames of fire were coming out of each floor, and
black and thick smoke spread all around. Four fire engines were engaged and the firemen in their

flooding brought the fire under control but the building was completely destroyed.

some time of the year homeless. This is an issue that the authorities are trying to deal with. However,
there are more things that each person can do to help those people
One of the things you can do to help the homeless is to volunteer your time. If you have a lot of
free time, you might go on an extended trip to help set up homes or improve an impoverished area.
Even with just a few hours a week, it is possible to make an impact in your own city. You can also sign

In the twentieth century, architects in large cities designed structures a way that reduced
noise and yet made living as comfortable as possible. They used such techniques as making walls
hollow and filling this wall space with materials that absorb noise. Thick carpets and heavy
curtains were used to cover floors and windows. Air conditioners and furnaces were designed to
filter air through soundproofing materials. However, after much time and effort had been spent in
making buildings less noisy, it was discovered that people also reacted adversely to the lack of
sound. Now architects are designing structures which reduce undesirable noise but retain the kind
of noise that people seem to need.

Getting the job you deserve
Many of us wish we were in a better-paid or more interesting job but don't know how to start
looking for something else. If this describes you, the first thing you need to do is update your
résumé. A résumé is a tool that can be used to obtain a job interview. Along with a cover letter, it
is the first impression a prospective employee makes on a potential employer. Therefore, it is
important that a résumé provide as much relevant information as possible while remaining brief.
A résumé should be no more than two sides of A4 paper. Make it any longer and it won't get read.
A résumé must be neatly typed, with at least 3
/4 inch margins on all four : sides. Use underlining,
capital letters, and asterisks to highlight important information. A résumé should be single-spaced
with an extra line of space between blocks of information. Begin a résumé with your name,
address, and home and business telephone numbers. Do not include age, marital status, or other
personal facts. Next, many résumés list a career goal, followed by a chronological outline of work
experience, starting with the most recent job and working backward including a brief description
of relevant duties and skills. Finally, include an outline of your educational background from the
most recent backward. Include dates, schools, and diplomas awarded. Before you send it, make

In the twentieth century, architects in large cities designed structures a way that reduced
noise and yet made living as comfortable as possible. They used such techniques as making walls
hollow and filling this wall space with materials that absorb noise. Thick carpets and heavy
curtains were used to cover floors and windows. Air conditioners and furnaces were designed to
filter air through soundproofing materials. However, after much time and effort had been spent in
making buildings less noisy, it was discovered that people also reacted adversely to the lack of
sound. Now architects are designing structures which reduce undesirable noise but retain the kind
of noise that people seem to need.

Getting the job you deserve
Many of us wish we were in a better-paid or more interesting job but don't know how
to start looking for something else. If this describes you, the first thing you need to do is update
your résumé. A résumé is a tool that can be used to obtain a job interview. Along with a cover
letter, it is the first impression a prospective employee makes on a potential employer.
Therefore, it is important that a résumé provide as much relevant information as possible while
remaining brief. A résumé should be no more than two sides of A4 paper. Make it any longer
and it won't get read. A résumé must be neatly typed, with at least 3
/4 inch margins on all four :
sides. Use underlining, capital letters, and asterisks to highlight important information. A
résumé should be single-spaced with an extra line of space between blocks of information.
Begin a résumé with your name, address, and home and business telephone numbers. Do not
include age, marital status, or other personal facts. Next, many résumés list a career goal,
followed by a chronological outline of work experience, starting with the most recent job and
working backward including a brief description of relevant duties and skills. Finally, include an
outline of your educational background from the most recent backward. Include dates, schools,
23. A. after B. later C. past D. then

TSUNAMIS
Tsunamis are waves, but they are far different from normal waves that occur every day in
the ocean. A normal wave is created by the pull of the moon's gravity, but tsunamis are a series
of great sea waves that are created by a shock from underwater. The most common causes of
tsunamis are underwater earthquakes, landslides, or volcanic eruptions.
On Sunday, 26th December, 2004, a 9.0-magnitude earthquake occurred under the
Indian Ocean near the west coast of the Indonesian island of Sumatra. It displaced a large
amount of water, and sent shock waves in every direction, resulting in a series of 30-foot waves
travelling up to 500 miles per hour. These high speeds cause the waves to be very destructive.
They travelled unnoticed at first because they were not visible an the surface, a common pattern
in the occurrence of tsunamis.
28. Which of the following best expresses the main idea of the passage?
A. Normal waves and tsunamis
B. Characteristics of ocean waves.

In developing countries, where three fourths of the world’s population lives, sixty percent of the
people who can’t read and write are women. Being illiterate doesn’t mean they are not intelligent. It
does mean it is difficult for them to change their lives. They produce more than half of the food. In
Africa eighty percent of all agricultural work is done by women. There are many programs to help poor
countries develop their agriculture. However, for years, these programs provided money and training
for men.
In parts of Africa, this is a typical day for a village woman. At 4:45 a. m, she gets up, washes and
eats. It takes her a half hour to walk to the fields, and she works there until 3:00 p.m. she collects
firewood and gets home at 4:00. She spends the next hour and a half preparing food to cook. Then she
collects water for another hour. From 6: 30 to 8:30 she cooks. After dinner, she spends an hour washing
the dishes and her children. She goes to bed at 9:30 p.m.
International organizations and programs run by developed nations are starting to help women, as
well as men, improve their agricultural production. Governments have already passed some laws
affecting women because of the UNO Decade for Women. The UNO report will affect the changes
now happening in the family and society.
28. By whom (what) was the Decade for Women organized?
A. By the United Nations Organization.

B. Because 80 percent of all agricultural work is done by women.
C. Most women are not intelligent.
D. All are correct.
30. Why do people say that African women’s lives are hard?

The word Yamaboko refers to the two types of floats used in the procession: the 23 yama and 10 hoko.
One of the main reasons the Gion Matsuri is so impressive is the enormity of the hoko, which are up to
25 meters tall, weigh up to 12 tons, and are pulled in wheels as big as people. Both yama and hoko are
elaborately decorated and represent uniques themes. The procession on July 17 features 23 yama and
hoko, including most of the particularly impressive hoko, while the procession on July 24 features the
remaining ten yama and hoko.
Another reason for the festival’s impressiveness is its long and almost uninterrupted history. It dates
back to 869 as a religious ceremony to appease the practice of selecting a local boy to be a divine
messenger. The child cannot set foot on the ground from thr 13th
until after he has been paraded

Jeans are a type of pants, typically made from denim or dungaree cloth. Often the term “jeans”
refers to a particular style of trousers, called “blue jeans”, which were invented by Jacob W. Davis in
partnership with Levi Strauss & Co. in 1872 and patented by Jacob W. Davis and Levi Strauss on May
20, 1873. Prior to the Levi Strauss patented trousers, the term “blue jeans” had been long in use for
various garments (including trousers, overalls, and coast), constructed from blue-colored denim. “Jean”
also references a type of sturdy cloth commonly made with a cotton warp and wool weft. Jean cloth can
be entirely cotton as well, similar to denim. Originally designed for cowboys and miners, modern jeans
became popular in the 1950s among teenagers, especially members of the greaser subcultures. Jeans
were a common fashion item in the 1960s hippie subculture and they continued to be popular in the
1970s and 1980s youth subcultures of punk rock and heavy metal. Nowadays, they are one of the most
popular types of trousers, especially in Western culture. Historic brands include Lev’s Lee, and
Wrangler.

Most people feel that when they dream, they are carried off to another world. On the contrary,
dreams are often connected to our daily lives. When our whole mind is filled with something, when we
are either very upset or when are in good spirit, a dream will represent this reality in symbols. It is
often said that we benefit from dreams because they help the spirit to heal itself, when things go wrong.
Dreams are therefore a kind of escape, almost a holiday from real life, with its fears and
responsibilities, it is, however, a strange kind of holiday because whether we have a wonderful time or
whether it turns out to be s nightmare, we quickly forget it. Most dreams disappear forever unless you

collects firewood and gets home at 4:00. She spends the next hour and a half preparing food to
cook. Then she collects water for another hour. From 6: 30 to 8:30 she cooks. After dinner, she
spends an hour washing the dishes and her children. She goes to bed at 9:30 p.m.

as well as men, improve their agricultural production. Governments have already passed some

The word Yamaboko refers to the two types of floats used in the procession: the 23 yama and
10 hoko. One of the main reasons the Gion Matsuri is so impressive is the enormity of the hoko,
which are up to 25 meters tall, weigh up to 12 tons, and are pulled in wheels as big as people.
Both yama and hoko are elaborately decorated and represent uniques themes. The procession on
July 17 features 23 yama and hoko, including most of the particularly impressive hoko, while the
procession on July 24 features the remaining ten yama and hoko.
Another reason for the festival’s impressiveness is its long and almost uninterrupted history.

Jeans are a type of pants, typically made from denim or dungaree cloth. Often the term “jeans”
refers to a particular style of trousers, called “blue jeans”, which were invented by Jacob W. Davis
in partnership with Levi Strauss & Co. in 1872 and patented by Jacob W. Davis and Levi Strauss
on May 20, 1873. Prior to the Levi Strauss patented trousers, the term “blue jeans” had been long
in use for various garments (including trousers, overalls, and coast), constructed from blue-
colored denim. “Jean” also references a type of sturdy cloth commonly made with a cotton warp
and wool weft. Jean cloth can be entirely cotton as well, similar to denim. Originally designed for
cowboys and miners, modern jeans became popular in the 1950s among teenagers, especially

Most people feel that when they dream, they are carried off to another world. On the contrary,
dreams are often connected to our daily lives. When our whole mind is filled with something,
when we are either very upset or when are in good spirit, a dream will represent this reality in
symbols. It is often said that we benefit from dreams because they help the spirit to heal itself,
when things go wrong. Dreams are therefore a kind of escape, almost a holiday from real life,
with its fears and responsibilities, it is, however, a strange kind of holiday because whether we
have a wonderful time or whether it turns out to be s nightmare, we quickly forget it. Most dreams
disappear forever unless you are one of those people disciplined enough to write them down as
soon as you wake up.
