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 38.
Children assessed as having special education needs come to school with a wide range of different
needs. A particular disability may not affect learning in a way that means a child needs extra educational
support, or indeed it may not affect the capacity for learning at all. Learning together with other children
in a mainstream classroom without specialist support may be all that a child needs.
Many children with special educational needs can therefore be fully included in mainstream
classes without any additional teaching or care supports. Others may need additional teaching and/ or
care assistance or assistive technology to support them in mainstream classes. Some children, with greater
needs, may benefit from being placed in a special class in school mainstream schools where there are
smaller numbers of pupils in the class. Other children, with complex needs, may need supportive
interventions provided in special schools.
During their school life, children may move from one setting to another as they get older or as
different needs, strengths or abilities emerge. It is important that educational placements are kept under
review by the school, parents and other professionals involved. Children with special educational needs
should be facilitated to move from one placement to another where it is appropriate to meet their
changing needs and abilities.

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 39 to 45.
Perhaps the greatest invention in history is writing. The flexibility of writing is perhaps the key to
much of its power. But it may be that writing's very flexibility can be a curse as well as a blessing. A
common concern with oral histories is the possibility that the truth will get distorted over time and that
rumors will become truth. Written history evidences the same problem.
Throughout the centuries that writing has existed, forged documents have also existed. An ancient
letter supposedly written by the Roman emperor Constantine in the 4 th century A.D. shows that the
duration of a document is not proof of its truth. For many centuries, the Catholic Church relied on this
letter to enforce the legitimacy of its rule and its land. The letter from Constantine stated that he had
become a Christian and donated a portion of his land to the Pope and to future Popes in the Catholic
Church. Although it is true that Constantine converted to Christianity, the letter itself was discovered to
be a forgery in the 15th century, and probably originated in the 8th century.
In addition to historical documents, great literature has also been forged. William Shakespeare,
who died in 1616, is perhaps the most famous author in the world. Wouldn’t someone benefit if a long-
lost play was found? In 1796, William Henry Ireland announced that he had indeed found such a play
entitled Vortigem. He sold it to a London theater producer, but as soon as he handed over the script, the
producer immediately realized it was fake.
Some fake documents are easily debunked by highly literate people by comparing the suspicious
document to writing that was definitely written by the author in question. If the writing style does not
correspond to the known sample, it is not hard to declare the writing to be fake. However, it is not always
so easy to use writing style, grammatical patterns, and word usage as a basis for identifying the real
author of a written text. In 1989, literature professor Don Foster identified a poem called "A Funeral
Elegy" as the work of William Shakespeare, but in 2002 it was re-classified as the work of another writer
—and Foster, now aware of his mistake, agreed.
