in the space provided.
The generation gap refers to the difference in attitudes or behavior between a younger generation
and the older one. The major factor causes (CAUSING) the generation gap is the lack in (OF)
communication between parents and their children. Parents tend to be dominant and not to trust their
children to deal with crises. Also, they keep talking too much about certain problems. That is the
reason why young people seldom reveal their feelings with (TO) their parents. When facing problems,
young people prefer to seek help from their classmates or friends. The above mentioned factor could
lead to a generation gap. In order to abridge the gap between the old generation and the younger one,
mutual understanding is the vital key. The wisest solution would be for parents and their children (TO)
treat each other as friends.

Part 4. Give the correct form of the bracketed word. Write your answer on your answer sheet.

A recent study of families with more than one child concluded that ‘siblings matter even more
than parents do in terms of promoting being kind and generous to others’. The researchers reported
that parents (1- justify) ____JUSTIFIABLY____worry about the apparently constant fighting between
very young siblings because (2- hostile) ____HOSTILITY____ of this kind is connected to bad
behavior outside the family context. However, the flights give young children a chance to learn how to
make up with people after a (3- agree) ____DISAGREEMENT____ and how to regain control of their
(4- emotion) ____EMOTIONS____ and these are skills that come in handy as they grow up. If
parents encourage affection between young siblings, this will make life easier for them when they
reach (5- adolescent) ___NCE_____, because the affection of siblings acts as ‘a big (6- protect)
____PROTECTIVE____ factor’ then. When it comes to delinquent (7- behave)
____BEHAVIORS____outside the home, an absence of affection seems to be a bigger problem than
high levels of conflict'.
And having a sister is especially good for you in this regard, the researchers concluded.
Someone with a sister is less likely to suffer from feeling lonely, unloved or guilty, and feelings of (8-
conscious) ____SELF-CONCIOUSNESS____and fear are also less (9- prevail)
___ING_____among people with sisters. The study found that all siblings have positive effects on
each other, however old they are and whatever their differences in age. However, sisters have the
most positive influence because they are more (10- care) ___CARING_____ and better at discussing
problems.

Part 3. Read the passage and choose the best answer.


Statistics show that more and more of us are suffering from stress and that much of this is caused
by our jobs. It appears that many of us are working too hard and this is taking a toll on our health.
There is, experts tell us, simply too much pressure put on many employees these days. In many
jobs, in sales or production departments, for example, unrealistic targets are set for the workforce.
People are, in fact, trying to do the impossible and making themselves ill by doing so.
In many countries, more and more people are working longer hours. Some workers have to do this
to cope with their workload, while others think that staying late will impress the boss so much that he
will promote them. This extended presence in the workplace is known as presenteeism.
Such overwork often results in extreme fatigue, or even total exhaustion, with many people also
suffering from insomnia. When the workers get home, instead of resting or enjoying a leisure pursuit,
they simply cannot switch off. Their minds are still full of work worries.
Most people used to be able to leave behind the tension and anxiety of the workplace when they
went on holiday. Unfortunately, modern communication systems, such as mobile phones and email,
have made this a thing of the past. We find it almost impossible to leave our work behind.
Neither the body nor the mind can go on doing too much indefinitely. Workers reach a point
beyond which they cannot cope, and have to take time off. Some may experience burnout and some
may become mentally ill. Meanwhile, a study by some American universities has shown that stress
can weaken the immune system.
The fact that stress at work leads to illness is supported by findings by the British Health and
Safety Executive. These indicate that 60 per cent of absence from work is a result of stress. It is time
for us all to take stress seriously and to reconsider the ethos of modern working conditions. Working
hard is important but everyone must realize that even productivity is less important than our health.

Part 4. Read the passage and do the tasks that follow.


THE TRUTH ABOUT LYING
Over the years Richard Wiseman has tried to unravel the truth about deception - investigating the
signs that give away a liar.
A. In the 1970s, as part of a large-scale research programme exploring the area of interspecies
communication, Dr Francine Patterson from Stanford University attempted to teach two lowland
gorillas called Michael and Koko a simplified version of Sign Language. According to Patterson, the
great apes were capable of holding meaningful conversations, and could even reflect upon profound
topics, such as love and death. During the project, their trainers believe they uncovered instances
where the two gorillas' linguistic skills seemed to provide reliable evidence of intentional deceit. In one
example, Koko broke a toy cat, and then signed to indicate that the breakage had been caused by one
of her trainers. In another episode, Michael ripped a jacket belonging to a trainer and, when asked
who was responsible for the incident, signed 'Koko'. When the trainer expressed some scepticism,
Michael appeared to change his mind, and indicated that Dr Patterson was actually responsible,
before finally confessing.
B. Other researchers have explored the development of deception in children. Some of the most
interesting experiments have involved asking youngsters not to take a peek at their favourite toys.
During these studies, a child is led into a laboratory and asked to face one of the walls. The
experimenter then explains that he is going to set up an elaborate toy a few feet behind them. After
setting up the toy, the experimenter says that he has to leave the laboratory, and asks the child not to
turn around and peek at the toy. The child is secretly filmed by hidden cameras for a few minutes, and
then the experimenter returns and asks them whether they peeked. Almost all three-year-olds do, and
then half of them lie about it to the experimenter. By the time the children have reached the age of five,
all of them peek and all of them lie. The results provide compelling evidence that lying starts to emerge
the moment we learn to speak.
C. So what are the tell-tale signs that give away a lie? In 1994, the psychologist Richard Wiseman
devised a large-scale experiment on a TV programme called Tomorrow's World. As part of the
experiment, viewers watched two interviews in which Wiseman asked a presenter in front of the
cameras to describe his favourite film. In one interview, th~ presenter picked Some Like It Hot and he
told the truth; in the other interview, he picked Gone with the Wind and lied. The viewers were then
invited to make a choice- to telephone in to say which film he was lying about. More than 30,000 calls
were received, but viewers were unable to tell the difference and the vote was a 50/50 split. In similar
experiments, the results have been remarkably consistent- when it comes to lie detection, people
might as well simply toss a coin. It doesn't matter if you are male or female, young or old; very few
people are able to detect deception.
D. Why is this? Professor Charles Bond from the Texas Christian University has conducted surveys
into the sorts of behaviour people associate with lying. He has interviewed thousands of people from
more than 60 countries, asking them to describe how they set about telling whether someone is lying.
People's answers are remarkably consistent. Almost everyone thinks liars tend to avert their gaze,
nervously wave their hands around and shift about in their seats. There is, however, one small
problem. Researchers have spent hour upon hour carefully comparing films of liars and truth-tellers.
The results are clear. Liars do not necessarily look away from you; they do not appear nervous and
move their hands around or shift about in their seats. People fail to detect lies because they are basing
their opinions on behaviours that are not actually associated with deception.
E. So what are we missing? It is obvious that the more information you give away, the greater the
chances of some of it coming back to haunt you. As a result, liars tend to say less and provide fewer
details than truth-tellers. Looking back at the transcripts of the interviews with the presenter, his lie
about Gone with the Wind contained about 40 words, whereas the truth about Some Like It Hot was
nearly twice as long. People who lie also try psychologically to keep a distance from their falsehoods,
and so tend to include fewer references to themselves in their stories. In his entire interview about
Gone with the Wind, the presenter only once mentioned how the film made him feel, compared with
the several references to his feelings when he talked about Some Like It Hot.
F. The simple fact is that the real clues to deceit are in the words that people use, not the body
language. So do people become better lie detectors when they listen to a liar, or even just read a
transcript of their comments? The interviews with the presenter were also broadcast on radio and
published in a newspaper, and although the lie-detecting abilities of the television viewers were no
better than chance, the newspaper readers were correct 64% of the time, and the radio listeners
scored an impressive 73% accuracy rate.
