13) There were times during the night when all the jungle sounds would stop at one.
There was no dwindling down or fading away, it was all gone in a single instant as though some signal had

thousand years in the jungle might condition you to receive.
In the paragraph above the verb ‘transmitted’ means :
 modified
 sent out
 silenced
14) Read the passage below and answer to the question: The mysterious graffiti artist Banksy, whose
pioneering work has bought graffiti into mainstream art and whose pictures fetch hundreds of thousands of
pounds, is rumoured to be from the city of Bristol. While no one knows for certain if this is true as his identity
is a closely guarded secret, the city recently hosted an exhibition of Banksy’s work.
What does the author know about Banksy for sure?
 Banksy was from the city of Bristol
 The author knows Banksy’s identity
 Banksy was first whose works turned graffiti into art.
15) Practice of Medicine: Modern scientific and technological developments in the practice of medicine and
public health have drawn nursing into new and wider fields of activity, and its functions have been expanded
accordingly. Therefore, nursing is no longer limited mainly to activities within the hospital, or to what is called
curative nursing. It has become also a community service in which preventive and rehabilitative functions are
a vital part of its program. The modern concept of nursing considers the hospital, however central, as only one
of many health agencies in the community.
As we understand from the reading, today ---------.
 the only reason people go to hospitals is for nursing care.
 most of the nursing practice now takes place in people's homes.
 scientific and technological developments can't improve the quality of care that is delivered in
hospitals.
 hospitals are not the only setting where people receive care or support.
16) Educating Children: One of the major processes that takes place in schools, of course, is that students
learn. When they graduate from high school, many can use a computer, write essays with three-part theses,
and differentiate equations. In addition to learning specific skills, they learn to think critically, to weigh
evidence and to develop independent judgment. The extent to which this development takes place is related
to both school and home environments. Teachers who are more open to new ideas and less authoritarian
produce students who have greater intellectual flexibility and higher achievement test scores. Studies show
that teachers are most demanding when they are of the same social class as their students. The greater the
difference between their own social class and that of their pupils, the more rigidly they structure their
classrooms and the fewer demands they place on their students.
We learn from the reading that when students graduate from high school ----------.
 none of them are able to think critically.
  they can take the overall responsibility of anything.
 many of them have gained specific skills like writing essays and differentiating equations.
17) Mother Tongue: First language, also known as mother tongue, is generally the language a person learns
first. However, one can have two or more native languages thus being a native bilingual or indeed
multilingual. The order in which these languages are learned is not necessarily the order of proficiency.
Lacking in first language skills often make learning other languages difficult. Often a child learns the basics of
his or her first language or languages from his or her family. The term mother tongue, however, should not be
interpreted to mean that it is the language of one's mother. For instance, in some paternal societies, the wife
moves in with the husband and thus may have a different first language or dialect than the local language of
the husband. Yet their children usually only speak their local language.
One can infer from the reading that ----------.
 very few children throughout the world learn to speak two languages.
 it is possible for a bilingual to become more competent in his second language.
 one cannot be a native speaker of more than two languages.
 bilinguals use their two languages for different purposes and functions.
18) In the southwest of Africa, where Steno beetle lives, there is no water in the desert.
It is extraordinarily dry. You would think it was quite impossible for anything to survive there. Except, of
course, that there is moisture in the air. And that’s where the Desert Beetle, to give it its familiar name, is
absolutely amazing. The design of this apparently rather modest creature means that using the bumps on its
wings it collects minute drops of liquid from the atmosphere. Then it stands at an angle so that these little
droplets slide down its back to its mouth. It is literally ‘catching’ the moisture from the air round it.
 Collecting water from the rain.
 Desert insects.
 Human survival in the desert.
19) Allan Carlson hesitated as he stood in the flowerbed that ran along one side of the Old People’s Home. He
was wearing a brown jacket with brown trousers and on his feet he had a pair of brown indoor slippers. He
was not a trendsetter; people rarely are at that age. He was on the run from his own birthday party, another
unusual thing for a hundred-year-old retiree, not least because even being one hundred is pretty rare.
According to the paragraph given above:
 Allan Carlson was getting ready for his birthday party.
 Hundred-year-old retirees try to start new fashion in clothes.
 Allan Carlson was not happy about his anniversary
20) There were times during the night when all the jungle sounds would stop at one. There was no dwindling
down or fading away, it was all gone in a single instant as though some signal had been transmitted out to the
life: bats, birds, snakes, monkeys, insects, picking upon on a frequency that a thousand years in the jungle
might condition you to receive. In the paragraph given above the phrasal verbs ‘dwindling down/fading away’
mean:
 becoming more intense
 gradually becoming less or smaller
 becoming separated
21) Read the passage and find out if the following statement is true, false or not given.

you if you hadn’t been such a close friend.
The real thief knew that his best friend would not turn him in.
