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 following question from 31 to 37.

Water scarcity is fast becoming one of the major limiting factors in world crop production. In many areas, poor agricultural practices have led to increasing desertification and the loss of formerly arable lands: Consequently, those plant species that are well adapted to survival in dry climates are being looked at for an answer in developing more efficient crops to grow on marginally arable lands.

Plants use several mechanisms to ensure their survival in desert environments. Some involve purely mechanical and physical adaptations, such as the shape of the plant's surface, smaller leaf size, and extensive root systems. Some of the adaptations are related to chemical mechanisms. Many plants, such as cacti, have internal gums and mucilage which give them water-retaining properties. Another chemical mechanism is that of the epicuticular wax layer. This wax layer acts as an impervious cover to protect the plant. It prevents excessive loss of internal moisture. It also protects the plant from external aggression, which can come from inorganic agents such as gases, or organic agents which include bacteria and plant pests.

Researchers have proposed that synthetic waxes with similar protective abilities could be prepared based on knowledge of desert plants. If successfully developed, such a compound could be used to greatly increase a plant's ability to maintain health in such adverse situations as inadequate water supply, limited fertilizer availability, attack by pests, and poor storage after harvesting.

Question 31: The word “extensive” in the second paragraph is closest in meaning to _________.

A. comprehensive            B. shallow

C. widespread                 D. spongy

Question 32: This passage deals mainly with _________.

A. desertification

B. developing efficient plants

C. factors limiting crop production 

D. decreasing water supply

Question 33: The word “arable” in the first paragraph is closest in meaning to ________.

A. barren                    B. marsh

C. fertile                      D. parched

Question 34: Which of the following is a mechanical or physical mechanism that desert plants use?

A. The small root system

B. The vast leaf size

C. The high water system 

D. The plant's shape

Question 35: Which is one of the ways in which the epicuticular wax protects the plant?

A. It guards against bacteria.

B. It helps the plant to avoid excessive moisture intake

C. It releases gases against plant pests.

D. It helps the plant to attack aggressors.

Question 36: All of the following are examples of an adverse situation for crops EXCEPT _________.

A. proper storage

B. inadequate water

C. insufficient fertilize

D. pest aggression

Question 37: It can be inferred that synthetic stimulate waxes _________.

A. have not succeeded  

B. have been determined to be impervious to organic and inorganic agents

C. have not been developed yet

D. have the quality of causing bacteria

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 following question from 38 to 45.

Not very long ago, when people needed to find a job, there were several possible steps. They might begin with a look through the classified ads in the newspaper. They could go to the personnel office at various companies and fill out an application, or they could go to an employment agency. They could even find out about a job opening through word-of-mouth from another person who had heard about it.

These days, job hunting is more complicated. The first step is to determine what kind of job you want (which sounds easier than it is) and make sure that you have the right education for it. Rapid changes in technology and science are creating many professions that never existed until recently. It is important to learn about them because one might be the perfect profession for you. The fastestgrowing areas for new jobs are in computer technology and health services. Jobs in these fields usually require specific skills, but you need to find out exactly which degrees are necessary. For example, it may be surprising to learn that in the sciences, an M.S. is more marketable than a Ph.D! In other words, there are more jobs available for people with a Master of Science degree than for people with a doctorate (however, people who want to do research still need a Ph.D.)

How do people learn about "hot" new professions? How do they discover their "dream job"? Many people these days go to a career counselor. In some countries, job hopping has become so common that career counseling is now "big business". People sometimes spend large amounts of money for this advice. In Canada and the United States, high school and college students often have access to free vocational counseling services on campus. There is even a career organization, the Five O'Clock Club, which helps members to set goals. Members focus on this question: what sort of person do you want to be years from now? The members then plan their career around that goal. All career counselors - private or public - agree on one basic point: it is important for people to find a career that they love. Everyone should be able to think, "I'm having such a good time. I can't believe they're paying me to do this."

Question 38: According to the second paragraph, all of the following steps are mentioned in hunting jobs today EXCEPT _________.

A. learning about different professions

B. deciding on a profession

C. doing a Ph.D degree

D. getting information about necessary skills or degrees

Question 39: The word “marketable” as used in the second paragraph could be best replaced by ________.

A. beneficial                 B. profitable

C. wanted                     D. well-paid

Question 40: It can be inferred from the passage that what determine one's success in job hunting is ________.

A. discovery of his or her own dream job

B. his or her choices of employment agencies

C. his or her degrees or skills

D. his or her career counsellors

Question 41: According to the second paragraph, why is it important for us to learn about various professions?

A. Because jobs in computer technology and health services are popular.

B. So as not to miss the profession that is perfect for us.

C. Since more jobs are available for people with a Master of Science Degree.

D. As technological advances have created new professions.

Question 42: The phrase “through word-of-mouth” in the first paragraph probably means _________.

 A. via phone              B. visually

C. in person               D. orally

Question 43: Why does the author mention the steps of job hunting in the past in the first paragraph?

A. To explain the important of a job opening.

B. To emphasize that job hunting is becoming more complex at present.

C. To indicate that the process of job hunting stays the same over time.

D. To define the process of job hunting.

Question 44: According to the last paragraph, career counselling is now a "big business” due to ________.
