Choose the best answer to each of the statement, and mark the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet with a single line through the center. Questions 56-60 are based on the following passage. Time spent in a bookshop can be enjoyable, whether you are a book-lover or only there to buy a book as a present. You may even have entered the shop just to find shelter from a sudden shower. Whatever the reason, you can soon become totally unaware of your surroundings. The desire to pick up a book with an attractive design is irresistible, although this method of selection ought not to be followed, as you might end up with a rather uninteresting book. You soon become lost in some book or other, and usually it is only much later that you realize you have spent far too much time there and must hurry to keep some forgotten appointment---- without buying a book, of course. The opportunity to escape the realities of everyday life is, I think, the main attraction of a bookshop. There are not many places where it is possible to do this. A music shop is very much like a bookshop. You can go to such places as much as you wi9sh. If it is a good shop, no assistant will approach you with the greeting: “can I help you, sir?” you needn’t buy anything you don’t want. In a bookshop, an assistant should remain in the background until you have finished reading. You may want to find out where a particular section is. Then, and only then, are his services necessary. But when he has led you there, the assistant should leave politely and look as if he is not interested in selling a single book. 56. The best title for this passage may be_______________. A) The attraction of bookshops B) How to spend your time C) Bookshops and their assistantship D) Buying books 57.

An assistant in a bookshop helps you ___________ A) On your entering the shop B) Just before you finish reading C) Only when you want to find out where a particular section is D) When you are reading 60.

B) There are only a few places where it is possible to escape the realities of life. C) People go to bookshops only to buy books. D) A book with an attractive design must be an interesting one. Questions 61-65 are based on the following passage. One hot night last July, when our new baby wouldn’t or couldn’t sleep, I tried everything I could think of: ?warm bottles, songs, gentle rocking. ?Nothing would settle him. ?Guessing that I had a long night ahead of me, I bought a portable TV into his room, figuring that watching the late movie was as good a way as any to kill off the hours until dawn. ?To my surprise, as soon as the TV lit up, the baby quieted right down, his little eyes focused brightly on the tube. ?Not to waste an opportunity for sleep, I then tiptoed out of the room, leaving him to watch the actors celebrate john Bellushi’s forty-fifth birthday. My wife and I heard no more of the baby that night, and the next morning when I went into his room, I found him still watching TV himself. I found in my baby’s behavior a metaphor for the new generation. My wife and I had given him some books to examine, but he merely spit upon them. When we read to him, he did not feel comfortable. ?And so it is in the schools. We find that our students don’t read, that they look down upon reading and scold those of us who teach it. All they want to do is watching TV. After this experience with the baby, however, I have reached a conclusion: “ let them watch it!” if television is that much more attractive to children than books, why should we fight it? Let them watch it all they want! 61.why did the author bring a TV set into his son’s room? to play with it. To make his son stop crying. To leave it to his son.

They like their teachers who teach them reading. 65. What do you think is the author’s attitude towards TV expressed in the last two sentences?__________________. Favorable. Serious. Not favorable. Not serious. Questions 66-70 are based on the following passage: Every year just after Christmas the January Sales start. All the shops reduce their prices and for two weeks, they are full of people looking for bargains. My husband and I do not normally go to the sales as we don’t like crowds and in any case are short of money, as we have to buy lots of Christmas presents. Last year, however, I took my husband with me to the sales at the large shop in the center of London. We both needed some new clothes and were hoping to find a television set. When we got to Oxford Street, it was so crowded that we decided to split up and meet again at the underground station. So I left my husband and started looking around the shops. Unfortunately all the clothes were in very large size and so were not suitable for me. But I did buy a television at a very cheap price, so I felt quite pleased with myself. When I arrived at the station, my husband was not there. So I sat down in a nearby café to have a cup of tea. I quickly finished my tea when I saw my husband and went out to meet him. He looked very happy. Then I saw he was carrying a large and heavy cardboard box. “ Oh, dear!” I thought. Yes, we had no new clothes but two televisions. We shall not be going to the sales again. 66.
