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.
Package holidays, covering a two weeks" stay in an attractive location are
increasingly popular, because they offer an inclusive price with few extras. Once you get to
the airport, it is up to the tour operator to see that you get safely to your destination.
Excursions, local entertainment, swimming, sunbathing, skiing - you name it - it"s all laid on
for you. There is, in fact, no reason for you to bother anything yourselves. You make friends
and have a good time, but there is very little chance that you will really get to know the local
people. This is even less likely on a coach tour, when you spend almost your entire time
travelling. Of course, there are carefully scheduled stops for you to visit historic buildings
and monuments, but you will probably be allowed only a brief stay overnight in some famous
city, with a polite reminder to be up and breakfasted early in time for the coach next morning.
You may visit the beautiful, the historic, the ancient, but time is always at your elbow. There
is also the added disadvantage of being obliged to spend your holiday with a group of people
you have never met before, may not like and have no reasonable excuse for getting away
from. As against this, it can be argued that for many people, particularly the lonely or elderly,
the feeling of belonging to a group, although for a short period on holiday, is an added bonus.
They can sit safely back in their seat and watch the world go by.

____
A. schoolboys and schoolgirls B. the lonely or elderly people

Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, or D on your answer sheet to

Man is a land animal, but he also closely tied to the sea. Throughout history the sea has
served the needs of man. The sea has provided man with food and convenient way to travel to
many parts of the world. Today, nearly two thirds of the world's population lives within 80
kilometers of the sea coast.
In the modern technological world, the sea offers many resources to help mankind survive.
Resources on land are beginning to be used up. The sea, however, still can be hoped to supply
many man's needs. The list of riches of the sea yet to be developed by man's technology is
impressive. Oil and gas explorations have been carried out for nearly 30 years. Valuable
amounts of minerals existing on the ocean floor are ready to be mined.
Fish farming promises to be a good way to produce large quantities of food. The culture of
fish and shellfish is an ancient skill practiced in the past mainly by Oriental people.
 Besides oil and gas, the sea may offer new sources of energy. Experts believe that the
warm temperature of the ocean can be used in a way similar to the steam in a steamship.
Ocean currents and waves offer possible use as a source of energy.
Technology is enabling man to explore ever more deeply under the sea. The development
of strong, new materials has made this possible. The technology to harvest the sea continues
to improve. Experts believe that by the year 2020 the problems that prevent US from
exploiting fully the food, minerals, and energy source of the sea will be largely solved.
