Questions 1 – 10
TEXT 1
(1) The west has been supporting Israel attacks and aggression for so long
that it is now time for them to reassess the situation, boarding a ship carrying
humanitarian aid in international waters is clearly an act of aggression and a
violation of International Law.
(5) Sanction should be imposed on Israel by The International Community, let
them feel how to live without having access to food, medicine and international
support. It is not possible for any country on this globe to live when being cut
off from the rest of the world.
What can unarmed civilians especially aid workers do to harm Israel? It is
(10) clear that the Israelis are paranoid about everything. No wonder they are living
on edge, having to be alert every second of the day. Their children and
grandchildren will continue to suffer because of the stubborn aggressive stance
of their parents and grandparents.
(14) Yet, the Israelis brought that on by themselves and they have only
themselves to blame for whatever is happening to them. It is time for the Israelis
to sit down with the Palestinians and to seriously their differences.
To live in peace with their neighbors is not only positive for themselves
but also for their children and grandchildren. Violence only creates more
violence. I am starting to sympathize with Hamas and Hezbollah.
If the Israelis continue their acts of aggression, no country will sympathize
(21) with them. They will be isolated and treated like partials. To usurp Palestinians
lands and then colonize and mistreat their host is an unjustifiable and criminal
act.
The international community should take concrete measures and put a
stop to Israelis military aggression and acts of violence once and for all.

(1) One of the first principles in advertising is that it is limited in both time

long. Print ads are usually no larger than two pages and usually much smaller.
Therefore, an advertisement must do its job quickly; it must get the consumers
(5) attention, identify the product and deliver the seller's messages in a short time
or limited space. In order to do this, advertising often breaks the rules of
grammar, images and even society.
The second basic point is that advertisements usually have two parts; copy
and illustrations. Copy refers to the word in the advertisement. These words
(10) give the sales message. Illustrations are the picture or photograph. Most ads are
a combination of copy and illustrations.
The decision about how much copy and illustration to use depends on how
the advertiser wants to present the sales messages. Understanding how
(14) advertisers make this decision is complex. First we must understand how human
being process or work with information because we do not process all kinds of
information in the same way. We process some kinds of information in order to
understand it. On the other hand, we process other kinds of information
emotionally. This means that we use feelings rather than thinking to understand
the information. As there are two kinds of mental process, there are also two
basic ways of presenting a sales message: intellectually and emotionally. An

(21) intellectual presentation uses ideas to get a consumer to buy a product or
service. This kind of ads has a lot of copy. The copy explains to the usage and
benefit of the product or service. Such ads usually appear in magazine or
newspaper where the consumer has unlimited time to process the information.
Ads with an intellectual presentation usually have few illustrations.
26) The second way to present a sales message is emotionally. In an emotional
presentation, the use of the product is often not the most important sales
message. Instead, the advertisement focuses on the buyer's social, psychological
or economics needs. An emotional ad may show how the product or service will
make the consumer's social life better by increasing their appeal, making them
feel more confident or making those people rich. Some of the most effective
ads today are ones that use an emotional presentation.

(1) A summery of the physical and chemical life must begin, not on the Earth,
but in the Sun; in fact, at the Suns’s very center. It is here that is to be found
the source of the energy that the Sun constantly pours put into space as light
and heat. This energy is liberated at the center of the Sun as billions upon
(5) billions of nuclei of hydrogen atoms collide with each other and fuse together
to form nuclei of helium, and in doing so, release some of the energy that is
stored in the nuclei atoms. The output of light and heat of the Sun requires that
some 600 millions of the years.
The nuclear energy is released at the Sun’s center as high-energy gamma
(10) radiation, a form of electromagnetic radiation like light and radio waves, only
of very much shorter wavelength. This gamma radiation is absorbed by atoms
inside the Sun, to be re-emitted at slightly longer wavelengths. This radiation,
in its turn, is absorbed and re-emitted. As the energy filters through the payers
(14) of the solar interior, it passes througfh the x-ray part of the spectrum,
eventually becoming light. At this stage, it has reached what we call the solar
surface, and can escape, without being absorbed further by solar atoms. A very
small fractions of the Sun’s light and heat is emitted in such directions that,
after passing unihndered through interplanetary space, it hits the Earth.
31. What does the passage mainly discuss?

(D) nuclei of hydrogen atoms collide
34. According to the passage, through which of the following does the energy released
in the Sun pass before it becomes light?
(A) The x-ray part of the spectrum
(B) Electronic space
(C) The solar surface
(D) Interplanetary space
