Super Size Me is a 2004 film by Morgan Spurlock, in which he documents his experiment to eat only
McDonald's fast food three times a day, every day, for thirty days.
Spurlock made himself a short list of rules for the experiment, including an obligation to eat all of the three
meals he ordered. He also had to 'Super Size', which means accepting a giant potion every time the option was
offered to him. He ended up vomiting after the first Super Size meal he finished, after taking nearly twenty minutes
to consume it.
After five days Spurlock put on almost 5 kg, and he soon found himself feeling depressed, with no energy.
The only thing that got rid of his headaches and made him feel better was another McDonald's meal, so his doctors
told him he was addicted. More seriously, around day twenty, he started experiencing heart palpitations and one of
the doctors detected liver problems. However, in spite of his doctor's advice, Spurlock continued to the end of the
month and achieve a total weight gain of 11kg. His body mass index also increased from a healthy 23.2 to an
overweight 27.
It took Spurlock fifteen months to recover from his experiment and return to his original weight, but the film
also had a wider impact. Just after its showing in 2004, McDonald's phased out the Super Size option and healthier
options like salads appeared on the menu. Unfortunately, McDonald's denied the connection between the film and
the changes, but it is interesting to note how closely the coincided with the release of the film.

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 34 to 40.
In 2002, several obese teenagers in the USA sued McDonald's, claiming that the company was responsible
for making them fat. They argued that McDonald's deliberately misled them into thinking that their cheeseburgers
and other products were healthy and nutritious food. They claimed that the company had not warned them about the
health problems that can result from eating too much salty, high-fat food and drinking too many sugary drinks:
diabetes, high blood pressure and obesity. The mother of one of the children, who at the age of 15 weighed more
than 180 kilograms, said in her statement: 'I always believe McDonald's was healthy for my son.'
McDonald's rejected the claim that they were responsible for these teenagers' health problems. 'People don't
go to sleep thin and wake up obese,', said McDonald's lawyer, Brad Lerman. 'The understanding of what hamburgers
8
and French fries do has been with us for a long, long time,' he added. The judge agreed, and dismissed the case,
saying: 'it is not the place of the law to protect people against their own excesses.' In other words, if people choose to
eat a lot of unhealthy food, they can't blame the company that sold it to them.
Other similar lawsuits against fast food companies in the USA have also failed. In 2005, the US House of
Representatives passed a bill which became known as the 'Cheeseburger Bill'. It made it much harder for obese
people to take legal action against the food industry. However, the bill has not ended the arguments about
responsibility. There is some scientific evidence to suggest that fast food is addictive, and harmful too. So is selling
fast food the same, in a way, as drug-dealing?
Question 34. Which of the following is the best title for the passage?
A. Obesity - who is to blame? B. Is fast food addictive?
C. Is fast food really healthy? D. How to get rid of fast food?
Question 35. According to the obese teenagers in the USA who used McDonald's, which of the following health
problems was NOT mentioned?
A. diabetes B. hypertension C. obesity D. heart disease
Question 36. In paragraph 2, the word "rejected" is closest in meaning to_______.
A. accepted B. denied C. ignored D. agreed
Question 37. In paragraph 2, the word "it" refers to_______.
A. law B. healthy food C. unhealthy food D. bill
Question 38. What happens if people choose to eat a lot of unhealthy food?
A. The company will be responsible for their health problems.
B. They may get financial support from the company.
C. They will surely succeed in lawsuits.
D. They can't force the company to be responsible for them.
Question 39. In paragraph 3, the word "failed" is closest meaning to _______.
A. not famous B. not important C. not successful D. not proud
Question 40. According to the passage, which of the following is NOT true about fast food?
A. salty and high-fat B. addictive C. nutritious D. harmful

Think twice before ignoring that poppyseed-sized speck on your arm. It could be a tick, and its bite could make
you sick. Ticks are tiny, spider-like insects that live in the woods or areas where tall grasses or leaf piles provide
shade from sun and heat. They latch onto passing people or animals and crawl around until they find a spot where
they can attach and draw blood.
Ticks are most active from spring through fall. In Connecticut, we usually start to see a growing number of tick
bites starting around June and lasting until the end of summer and even into September.
If you spend time in the woods or grassy areas or have a dog or other pet that spends time there, then you’re a
tick bite target. But you may not know that you’ve been bitten because these bites are usually painless. That’s why
it’s important to recognize the signs of a possible bite, and the symptoms of a tick-borne disease.

11
 We see a fair number of these diseases every summer. The three most common ones are Lyme disease,
anaplasmosis, and babesiosis, which black-legged ticks, also known as deer ticks, carry (although not all ticks are
infected). We also see ehrlichiosis, which comes from the lone star tick.
These infections typically present with flu-like symptoms, such as fever, chills, sweats, headache, body aches,
loss of appetite, nausea, or fatigue about one to two weeks after the bite of an infected tick. A bite from a tick
carrying the bacteria that causes Lyme-disease often leaves a trademark bullseye rash. Lyme disease may also cause
severe joint pain and swelling, especially the knees and other large joints as well as conduction system abnormalities
of the heart. All of these tick-borne diseases can be treated with antimicrobial therapy. If you become ill after
having been bitten by a tick or in places where ticks commonly live, schedule an appointment with your healthcare
provider.

According to reports, children with respiratory diseases are swarming hospital rooms throughout West Bengal.
The majority of these are brought on by the adenovirus infection. The chief medical officers of health in each district
and the medical colleges spread throughout the state are both concerned about this disease. They have been
instructed to analyze the situation with the highest level of readiness and to inventory the available resources.
Children with this new viral illness are flooding paediatric care. In order to prevent the sickness from spreading
further, health authorities have issued a number of rules warning people to stay away from gatherings in hospitals.
Also, chief officers of health in every district and medical college across the state recommended that hospitals
maintain enough supplies of equipment like oxygen and pediatric ventilators.
Children who are infected are now occupying the paediatric critical care units (PICU) that are currently
overcrowded in many hospitals. Adenovirus infections are more common in people with weakened immune systems
and those with a history of respiratory or cardiac issues. Pediatric critical care units (PICUs) in many hospitals are
currently overflowing with diseased children due to the current circumstances. Adenovirus infections are more
common in those with weakened immune systems, a history of cardiac or respiratory issues, or damaged
immunological systems.
Adenoviruses are a type of virus that can cause mild to severe sickness in the body, especially in the respiratory
tract, according to the United Nations' Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). Children of any age can
contract infections from the virus, while newborns and small children are more frequently affected.

12
 Adenoviruses can result in minor to serious illnesses. Common cold or flu-like symptoms, fever, sore throat,
acute bronchitis, pneumonia, pink eye, and acute gastroenteritis are among the severe symptoms that are
comparable. Pharyngeal-conjunctival fever and pneumonia are only a couple of the complications that can come
from harsh weather. Neurologic disorder, which affects the brain and spinal cord, bladder inflammation or infection,
and these conditions are among the less frequent symptoms.

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 29 to 33.
The Greenhouse Effect
The greenhouse effect is a natural process that warms the Earth’s surface. When the Sun’s energy reaches the
Earth, some of it is reflected back to space and the rest is absorbed, warming the planet. The Earth then releases heat
in the form of infrared radiation. Greenhouse gases in the atmosphere, such as carbon dioxide, methane, and water
vapor, trap some of this heat, preventing it from escaping into space. This process keeps the Earth’s temperature at a
level suitable for life.
However, human activities have increased the concentration of these greenhouse gases, enhancing the
greenhouse effect and leading to global warming. Burning fossil fuels, deforestation, and industrial processes release
large amounts of carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gases into the atmosphere. This results in more heat being
trapped, causing the Earth’s average temperature to rise.
The consequences of an enhanced greenhouse effect are far-reaching. Rising temperatures can lead to more
extreme weather events, such as hurricanes, droughts, and heatwaves. Melting polar ice caps and glaciers contribute
to rising sea levels, which can flood coastal areas and displace communities. Additionally, changes in temperature
and precipitation patterns can disrupt ecosystems and affect biodiversity.
To mitigate the impact of the greenhouse effect, it is essential to reduce greenhouse gas emissions. This can
be achieved by transitioning to renewable energy sources, improving energy efficiency, and protecting forests.
International cooperation and policy measures are also crucial in addressing this global challenge.
Question 29: What is the main purpose of the greenhouse effect?
A. To cool the Earth’s surface B. To trap heat and warm the Earth’s surface
C. To reflect all of the Sun’s energy back to space D. To release heat into space
Question 30: What human activities have increased the concentration of greenhouse gases?
A. Planting trees and conserving energy B. Using renewable energy sources
C. Burning fossil fuels and deforestation D. Reducing industrial processes
Question 31: What are the consequences of an enhanced greenhouse effect?
A. Decreased sea levels and stable weather patterns B. More extreme weather events and rising sea levels
C. Increased biodiversity and stable ecosystems D. Reduced global temperatures
Question 32: What can be done to mitigate the impact of the greenhouse effect?
A. Increase the use of fossil fuels B. Reduce energy efficiency
C. Protect forests and use renewable energy sources D. Decrease international cooperation
Question 33: What does the word “mitigate” in the passage most likely mean?
A. To worsen B. To alleviate C. To ignore D. To increase
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 34 to 40.
More than 200 reindeer have died of starvation on the Norwegian archipelago of Svalbard, with scientists
blaming their deaths on climate change. The wild deer carcasses were found on the Arctic islands this summer by
researchers from the Norwegian Polar Institute (NPI), which said it had never logged so many deaths at once in 40
years of monitoring the animals’ population level. “It’s scary to find so many dead animals,” project leader Ashild
Onvik Pedersen told state broadcaster NRK. “This is an example of how climate change affects nature. It is just sad.”
Svalbard’s capital Longyearbyen, the northernmost town on earth, is thought to be warming quicker than any
other settlement on the planet, climate scientists warned earlier this year. The milder temperatures in the region led to
unusually heavy rainfall in December, leaving a thick layer of ice when the precipitation froze. This meant the
reindeer could not dig through the hardened tundra to reach the vegetation they graze on in their usual pastures, the
NPI said. Svalbard’s reindeer have been observed eating seaweed and kelp when food is scarce, but these are less
nutritious and cause them stomach problems.
16
 A relatively high number of calves born last year increased the death toll, as the youngest and weakest are
often the first to die in harsh conditions. “Some of the mortality is natural because there were so many calves last
year. But the large number we see now is due to heavy rain, which is due to global warming,” said Ms. Onvik
Pedersen.
A team of three scientists spent 10 weeks investigating population of the Svalbard reindeer earlier this year.
Researchers warned the decline of reindeer would cause unwanted plant species, currently kept in check by the
animals’ grazing, to spread across Arctic ecosystems in Europe, Asia and North America.
Arctic reindeer and caribou populations have declined 56 per cent in the last two decades, a report by the
National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration said last year. The report said food security was partly to blame
for falling herd numbers, while warmer summers could also put the animals at greater risk of diseases spread by flies
and parasites. The average temperature in Longyearbyen has risen by 3.7C since 1900, more than three times the
global average increase of about 1C. In 2016, the entrance to the town’s “Doomsday” seed vault – which stores
specimens of almost all the world’s seeds – was flooded following heavy rainfall.
(Adapted from https://www.independent.co.uk/)
Question 34: Which could best serve as the title of the passage?
A. Climate change – The main cause for the death of hundreds of reindeer.
B. Global warming – What are the effects on nature?
C. Reindeer – The most vulnerable animals on the Arctic islands.
D. Climate change – What are the reasons?
Question 35: The word “logged” in paragraph 1 is closest in meaning to ______________.
A. cut down B. damaged C. recorded D. discovered
Question 36: The following are true about capital Longyearbyen, EXCEPT ___________.
A. It is believed to be the most quickly warming settlement on earth.
B. People in Longyearbyen suffered unusually heavy rain at the end of the year.
C. It is the northernmost town on our planet.
D. The reindeer here couldn’t stand the low temperature when the precipitation froze.
Question 37: The word “scarce” in paragraph 2 could be best replaced by __________.
A. inappropriate B. insufficient C. abundant D. unlimited
Question 38: What does the word “these” in paragraph 2 refer to?
A. seaweed and kelp B. Svalbard’s reindeer C. their usual pastures D. milder temperatures
Question 39: According to Ms. Onvik Pedersen, why is the death rate of reindeer so high this year?
A. Because of the high number of calves born. B. Because of heavy rain.
C. Because of natural selection. D. Because of the shortage of vegetation.
Question 40: It can be inferred from the passage that ______________.
A. Arctic reindeer play the most important role in the Arctic ecosystems.
B. the Arctic ecosystems are altering worse because of the global warming.
C. the clearest effect of climate change is the limit of food chain in the nature.
D. the harsh weather in Arctic islands only damages the new-born calves.

The Role of Zoos in Animal Conservation
Zoos have been a part of human culture for centuries, providing a place for people to see and learn about
animals from around the world. Modern zoos play a crucial role in animal conservation and education. They offer a
19
safe haven for endangered species, protecting them from threats such as habitat loss and poaching. By participating
in breeding programs, zoos help to increase the population of endangered animals and sometimes reintroduce them
into the wild.
However, the role of zoos is not without controversy. Critics argue that keeping animals in captivity can lead
to physical and psychological stress. Animals in zoos often live in environments that are very different from their
natural habitats, which can affect their behavior and well-being. Despite these concerns, many zoos are working to
improve the living conditions of their animals by creating more naturalistic enclosures and providing enrichment
activities.
Zoos also play an important role in educating the public about wildlife conservation. Through educational
programs and exhibits, zoos raise awareness about the challenges facing wildlife and inspire people to take action to
protect the environment. By connecting people with animals, zoos foster a sense of empathy and responsibility
towards the natural world.
In conclusion, while there are valid concerns about the welfare of animals in zoos, they can play a positive
role in conservation and education if they prioritize the well-being of their animals and contribute to broader
conservation efforts.
Question 29: What is one of the main roles of modern zoos?
A. To entertain visitors B. To provide a safe haven for endangered species

to each of the questions from 34 to 40.
Since the birth of the car in 1886, transport in big cities has changed a lot. It is no wonder many experts
think that there will be extraordinary changes in the next few decades.
As technology develops, highways, skylines, subways will be all transformed. Smarter roadways and
highways in cities outfitted with IoT sensors will process all kinds of data in real time and inform users of the best
transport options. Weather, crashes, traffic conditions will be communicated to users and smart stops will be found
everywhere providing renewable energy, green hydrogen or even greener energy, ensuring efficiency and safety on
every highway. Tunnels will also be a smart choice because of the reduction of traffic congestion. Underground
roads will be built in 3D with a lift system which will take vehicles deep underground and will allow traffic to attain
the greatest speed without intersections.
There will also be innovations in the sky. Air taxis are not a new idea, but in the future they will be
completely environment-friendly. Aviation gasoline will be no longer used. Green energy will be in place and cost-
effective air taxis will enable people to travel from one busy urban city to another in record time. New technologies
such as AI and the rollout of 5G will pave the way for fully autonomous innovation. Cars will not be the only thing
to go autonomous. Freight trucks, cargo vehicles, air taxis will all benefit from this technology and that is why the
term ‘driver’ will become extinct.
20

 Several cities are dealing with the crisis of overpopulation, causing a dearth of resources. Social and
economical imbalance among citizens creates problems in a community. As technology grows, the concept of
Artificial Intelligence and Internet of Things can be used into planning Smart cities which can gradually tackle
several issues in a coexistent society.
The building of a smart city requires large investments by the government. Nonetheless, it is one of the best
changes possible in lifestyles if done with conscious implementation. Smart cities are designed for optimum usage of
space and resources along with an efficient and optimum distribution of benefits. It also aims at increasing
connectivity at various levels among citizens, as well as between the administration and population. Public
properties such as schools, roads, and hospitals are improved. The system can tackle several redundancies of the
present system and save time and money. As technology is rapidly advancing, one can acknowledge that one needs
to develop their lifestyles accordingly to adapt to present-day demands.
Smart cities are meant to be environment-friendly. There are devices which can keep track of air purity level,
as well as other environmental and health-related factors. The investment in such a city should also include the
maintenance of a conscious work-force which shall review and amend the system. Therefore, a smart city shall only
reach a wholesome stage if it stands up to the social and psychological needs of the population.

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 34 to 40.
Global warming, a phenomenon that has emerged as one of the most pressing challenges facing our planet
today, refers to the gradual increase in Earth’s average surface temperature. This rise in temperature is primarily
attributed to human activities, particularly the emission of greenhouse gases into the atmosphere. The consequences
of global warming are far-reaching and have profound implications for the environment, ecosystems, and human life.
Human activities, such as burning fossil fuels for energy, deforestation, industrial processes, and agriculture,
release significant amounts of greenhouse gases, including carbon dioxide (CO2), methane (CH4), and nitrous oxide
(N2O), into the atmosphere. These gases create a "greenhouse effect," trapping heat from the sun and preventing it
from escaping back into space. As a result, the Earth's temperature gradually rises, leading to global warming.
One of the most evident consequences of global warming is the melting of polar ice caps and glaciers. As
temperatures rise, vast ice sheets in Antarctica and Greenland are losing mass at an alarming rate, contributing to
rising sea levels. This phenomenon poses a severe threat to low-lying coastal regions and small island nations,
increasing the risk of devastating floods and displacing millions of people.
24
 The warming climate also disrupts weather patterns, leading to more frequent and intense extreme weather
events. Heatwaves, hurricanes, cyclones, and droughts become more common, inflicting considerable damage to
ecosystems, agriculture, and infrastructure. The agricultural sector faces challenges in adapting to changing growing
conditions, which can result in food shortages and price fluctuations.
Additionally, global warming poses a grave threat to biodiversity. Many plant and animal species struggle to
adapt to the rapidly changing climate or face habitat loss due to shifting temperatures. Consequently, some species
may become extinct, disrupting delicate ecosystems and affecting the balance of nature.
