According to the 13th-century Saga of Erik the Red, Leif, a sailor like his father, voyaged

Olaf I sent him back to Greenland to win its Viking settlers. Journeying westward, Leif lost
his way and happened upon land in the west with which he was unfamiliar. There he found
“fields of self-sown wheat” and a country rich with grapevines and trees of a kind called
mösurr. Because of the grapes and the land’s fertility, Leif called the land Vinland (or
Wineland). The saga also relates that on Leif’s return journey, he came upon a wrecked
trading vessel and rescued its crew. For this deed he received the vessel’s entire rich cargo

When it rains or snows, some of the water is retained by the soil, some is absorbed by
vegetation, some evaporates, and the remainder, which reaches stream channels, is called
runoff. Floods occur when soil and vegetation cannot absorb all the water; water then runs
off the land in quantities that cannot be carried in stream channels or retained in natural
ponds and constructed reservoirs. About 30 percent of all precipitation is runoff, and this
amount may be increased by melting snow masses. Periodic floods occur naturally on many
rivers, forming an area known as the flood plain. These river floods often result from heavy
rain, sometimes combined with melting snow, which causes the rivers to overflow their
banks; a flood that rises and falls rapidly with little or no advance warning is called a flash
flood. Flash floods usually result from intense rainfall over a relatively small area.

which they said were limited and inadequate. Emerging to a glaring, full noon, it was time to
go back to the press center to write stories and race against time, always fearing that the
internet connection would come crashing down.
And after everything was done, only then I remembered to eat. Most times, I only ate
once a day because you always had to rush and it was difficult to find food. You had to travel
quite far, about a 30to 45-minute trip by car to find fresh food.
8. How often did the writer eat a day? A. Three times.

B. Seldom.
C. Twice.
D. Never.
E. Once.

Galileo Galilee (1564-1642) — Astronomer and Scientist. Galileo developed a superior
telescope and made many significant discoveries in astronomy. He was sentenced to life
imprisonment by the inquisition for his support for the Copernican theory that the sun was at
the center of the solar system. Galileo was born in Florence, Italy in 1564 to a poor but noble
family. His parents recognized their child’s innate intelligence and talents and so made
sacrifices to have him educated. At his father’s insistence, Galileo studied the profitable
career of medicine. But, at the University of Pisa, Galileo became fascinated in a wide range
! 19
of subjects. He was also critical of many of Aristotle’s teaching which had dominated
education for the past 2,000 years. Galileo was appointed to be a mathematics professor at
the University of Pisa, but his strident criticisms of Aristotle left him isolated among his
contemporaries. After three years of persecution, he resigned and went to the University of
Padua, where he taught math. His entertaining lectures attracted a large following and he
was able to spend the next 18 years pursuing his interests in astronomy and mechanics.

Once upon a time there was a poor widow who had an only son named Jack. They were
so poor that they didn't have anything except a cow. When the cow had grown too old, his
mother sent Jack to the market to sell it. On the way to the market, Jack met a butcher who
had some beautiful beans in his hand. The butcher told the boy that the beans were of great
value and persuaded the silly fad to sell the cow for the beans.
Jack brought them happily. When he told his mother about this, his mother became so
angry that she threw the beans out of the window.
When Jack woke up in the morning, he felt the sun shining into a part of his room but
all the rest was quite dark and shady.
! 20
So he jumped to the window. What did he see? The beanstalk grew up quite close past
Jack's window. He opened the window and jumped to the beanstalk which ran up just like a
big ladder.
He climbed ... and climbed till at last he reached the sky. While looking around, he saw
a very huge castle. He was very amazed.
Then Jack walked along the path leading to the castle. There was a big tall woman on
the doorstep. Jack greeted her and asked for the giantess mercy to give him breakfast,
because he felt very hungry. Although the giantess grumbled at first, finally she gave Jack a
hunk of bread and cheese and a jug of milk.
Jack hadn't finished when the whole house, began to tremble with the noise of

All human beings eat food and make use of the chemical energy in it, so do all other
animals. Perhaps you wonder where all that chemical energy comes from. Why doesn’t the
food all get used up?
The answer is that new food is being grown as fast as old food is used to. It is the green
plants that form the new food. Animals either eat the plants or eat other animals that have
eaten plants.
The green substance of plants is chlorophyll. Chlorophyll can absorb sunlight. When it
does so, it changes the energy of the sun into chemical energy. The chemical energy present
in sunlit chlorophyll is used to combine dioxide in the air with water from the soil. Starch and
! 21
other complicated compounds are formed. These are high in chemical energy obtained from
the sunlit chlorophyll.
They make up the food on which mankind and all other animals live. In the process of
forming this food, some oxygen atoms are left over. These are given off into the air by the
plants. The whole process is called photosynthesis.
Thus, plants use sunlight to from food and oxygen to from carbon dioxide and water
again. Plants change the sun’s energy into chemical energy. And animals change the animal
energy into kinetic and heat energy.
18. What will happen when the chlorophyll absorbs sunlight? It will....
A. Change heat into kinetic energy
B. Form complicated compound
C. Make use of heat energy
D. Change kinetic energy into chemical energy
E. Change the sun’s energy into chemical energy
19. From the text we know that.... A. Plant need to heat energy to live
B. All human beings need chemical energy
C. Plants absorb sunlight to produce kinetic energy
D. Chlorophyll is the most important thing in photosynthesis
E. Sun’s energy cannot be formed into kinetic energy
20. The green substance of plants is chlorophyll. The underlined word in the above is closest
in meaning to....
A. Core
B. Body
C. Stuff
D. Essence
E. Material
Nowadays, the police have been applying the new regulation concerning the use of seat
belts. In European countries, this regulation has been applied for a long time.
However, this new regulation has become controversial and is an interesting topic to
discuss. Here are some of the arguments. The use of seat belts has been proven to reduce the
risk of injury or death in an accident. Seat belt has become a standard component in cars. The
research shows that most car accident will cause an injury to the head. Frequently, drivers or
the passengers driving without seat belts die because of this. By wearing the seat belts, the
injury will not happen since belts restrain our body on the car seat when the accident
happens. Unfortunately, many cars, especially the old ones, don’t have seat belts. This is
! 22
because the traffic conditions in the past were unlike the recent traffic conditions. The
designer of old cars didn’t consider a seat belt as an important part.
Besides, the drivers wearing the seat belt will think that they are completely safe, so
they may drive carelessly. They are safe, indeed, but how about safety of other? The seat belt
is only one of the ways to reduce the risk of car accidents. It doesn’t mean that we are
completely safe. In short, our safety depends on ourselves.
21. What is the function of seat belts?

A. To reduce the traffic conditions.
B. To become a standard component in cars.
C. To reduce the risk of injury or death in an accident.
D. To prevent the drivers driving cars carefully.
E. To increase the risk of injury in car accidents.
22. “… that they are completely safe.” What does the word “they‟ refer to? A. Cars.
B. Seat belts.
C. Drivers.
D. Designers.
E. Others.

The Indus River Valley was once home to the most widespread and peaceful of the
ancient civilizations: the Indus Valley civilization also referred to as the Harappan civilization.
Known for its two major cities, Harappa and Mohenjo-Daro, this society lasted from roughly
3300 B.C. to 1300 B.C., yet it was only recently rediscovered within the last one hundred years.
Studies of the long-buried sites show surprising and interesting findings about the people,
culture, and structures that made up this great civilization.
The phrase “early civilizations” usually conjures up images of Egypt and Mesopotamia
and their pyramids, mummies, and golden tombs.
But in the 1920s, a huge discovery in South Asia proved that Egypt and Mesopotamia
were not the only “early civilizations.” In the vast Indus River plains (located in what is today
Pakistan and western India), under layers of land and mounds of dirt, archaeologists
discovered the remains of a 4,600-year-old city. A thriving, urban civilization had existed at
the same time as Egyptian and Mesopotamian states—in an area twice each of their sizes.
The people of this Indus Valley civilization did not build massive monuments like their
contemporaries, nor did they bury riches among their dead in golden tombs. There were no
mummies, no emperors, and no violent wars or bloody battles in their territory.
! 32
Remarkably, the lack of all these is what makes the Indus Valley civilization so exciting
and unique. While others civilizations were devoting huge amounts of time and resources to
the rich, the supernatural, and the dead, Indus Valley inhabitants were taking a practical
approach to supporting the common, secular, living people. Sure, they believed in an afterlife
and employed a system of social divisions. But they also believed resources were more
valuable in circulation among the living than on display or buried underground.
Amazingly, the Indus Valley civilization appears to have been a peaceful one. Very few
weapons have been found and no evidence of an army has been discovered. Excavated
human bones reveal no signs of violence, and building remains show no indication of battle.
All evidence points to a preference for peace and success in achieving it.
So how did such a practical and peaceful civilization become so successful? (To be
continued)
5. The Indus Valley civilization was described as …

A. rich and powerful
B. successful and resourceful
C. rich and supernatural

B. did not only belong to Egyptian and Mesopotamia people
C. did not last for less than 2000 years
D. flourished well in the last one hundred years

Growing Herbs Indoors

Materials you need:
Containers (with drainage holes and waterproof saucers); herb seeds and/or plants;
potting soil or soilless seed-starting mix; fertilizer
Procedures:
1. Prepare the herbs that you want to plant. The herbs you can choose for windowsill herb
garden are basil, cilantro, dill, oregano, rosemary, sage and thyme. You can start from
seed for annual herbs and from plants for perennial herbs.
2. Use individual pots for each herb so you can give each plant the specific care it needs. Be
sure containers have drainage holes and waterproof saucers. If you want to plant multiple
types of herbs in a single container, make sure they have the same cultural requirements.
3. If starting seeds, fill container with potting mix. Avoid using garden soil, which tends to
be heavy and may contain disease organisms. Sow seeds, checking the seed packet to
determine planting depth. Learn what conditions each herb prefers; for example, basil
! 33
prefers warmth, while sage and rosemary like cooler temperatures. Consider choosing
compact or dwarf varieties to fit your space.
4. Next, place containers in a sunny, south-facing window. A south-facing window is
adequate for most herbs. Water your herbs to keep soil moist but not soggy, and drain
saucers after watering. Fertilize every two weeks with a half-strength solution of an all-
purpose fertilizer. Pinch back branching plants, such as basil, to keep them shrubby rather
than leggy.
7. What do you have to do before filling the

container? A. Choose to plant the herbs from
seed or plant.
B. Choose the herbs that you want to plant.
C. Select the container for each herb.
D. Prepare the soil to plant.
E. Wash the containier and fill it with fertilizer
8. It is not recommended to use garden soil to plant

the indoor herbs because ....
A. garden soil may give viruses to indoor herbs
B. the indoor herbs may be too heavy to carry
C. the garden soil is too warm for indoor herbs
D. the indoor herbs may become dwarf if planted in soil
E. Garden soil may harm the fertilizer for the herbs
9. After planting the herbs, you need to …. A. give

fertilizer to grow the plants well
B. take care of the plants by watering it regularly
C. find the most suitable spot to place the plants
D. occasionally pick the leaves to grow shrubby plants
E. put the new plants on a shady place for protection
Recently, I took a trip to Japan. I went across the country and visited most of its
famous places. One that I noted was Akihabara. One notable establishment which can be
found in Akihabara is called a Girl/Maid Cafe, a themed restaurant where the servers are
women and they come and have conversations with you at your table. Together with my
friends, we went to a Mermaid Cafe, which was themed to be under the sea. Our waitress
was named Momone, and while she did not look exactly like a Mermaid, she was
definitely wearing a stereotypical maid outfit. Unfortunately I did not speak Japanese,
though the rest of my small cohort did, so a long conversation ensued about our servers’
interests and adventures. I purchased a special drink, which costed a bit more than the
others, but came with a cute Polaroid which Momone and I posed for. She wrote all over
! 34
the Polaroid with markers, writing cute messages and drawing hearts, to help build the
illusion that we were a cute (Kawaii) couple.
The arcades in Akihabara are filled with people playing games. I am a big fan of
Guilty Gear, but I could not find it in the arcade I was in, so I instead settled for Blaz Blu,
its cousin. This arcade, and many other buildings in the area, have very slow elevators
and no staircases. If there were a fire I could only assume everybody would die.
One of the shops I went to was several stories tall. The first story contained
modern console video games, the next stories contain retro console games. One story is
dedicated to movies, while another to board games. There I purchase one toy as a
souvenir for a friend back in the States, though I had not yet asked how it worked.
When riding between cities, the trains were very packed. In these trains one will
find many Japanese Businesspersons, who mostly appear sad and tired. This offers a
sharp contrast with the whole “Kawaii” culture which is especially prevalent in Akihabara.
10. The text mainly discusses.… A. the modern culture of Akihabara

B. the writer’s experiences in the maid café
C. the writer’s journey exploring the downtown of Akihabara

C. The Mermaid Café is usually themed under certain themes.
D. Customers have to use stairs to go to the arcades in Akihabara.
E. The businesspersons give the different view about the culture in Akihabara.

At the age of sixty-five, Laura Ingalls Wilder began writing a series of novels for young
people based on her early experiences on American frontier. Born in the state of Wisconsin
in 1867, she and her family were rugged pioneers. Seeking better farm land, they went by
overed wagon to Missouri in 1869, then on to Kansas the next year, returning to Wisconsin in
1871, and travelling on to Minnesota and Iowa before settling permanently in South Dakota
in 1879. Because of this constant moving, Wilder’s early education took place sporadically in
a succession of one-room schools. From age thirteen to sixteen, she attended school more
regularly, although she never graduated.
At the age of eighteen, she married Almanzo James Wilder. They bought a small farm in
Ozarks, where they remained for the rest of their lives. Their only daughter, Rose, who had
become a nationally known journalist, encouraged her mother to write. Serving as agent and
editor, Rose negotiated with Harper’s to publish her mother’s first book, Little House in the
Big Woods. Seven more books followed, each chronicling her early life on the plains. Written
! 36
from the perspective of a child, they have remained popular with young readers from many
nations. Twenty years after her death in 1957, more than 20 million copies had been sold,
and they had been translated into fourteen languages. In 1974, a weekly television series,
“Little House on the Prairie”, was produced based on the stories from the Wilder books.

The Bear Who Married a Woman

Once upon a time there lived a widow of the tribe of the Gispaxlâ'ts. Many men tried to
marry her daughter, but she declined them all.
The mother said, "When a man comes to marry you, feel of the palms of his hands. If
they are soft, decline him. If they are rough, accept him." She meant that she wanted to have
a son-in-law who is skillful in building canoes.
Her daughter obeyed her commands and refused all young men. One night a youth
came to her. The palms of his hands were very rough, and therefore she accepted his suit.
Early in the morning, however, he had suddenly disappeared, even before she had seen him.
When her mother arose early in the morning and went out, she found a halibut (name
of fish) on the beach in front of the house, although it was midwinter. The following evening
the young man came back, but disappeared again before the dawn of the day. In the
morning the widow found a seal in front of the house. Thus they lived for some time. The
young woman never saw the face of her husband; but every morning she found an animal
on the beach, every day a larger one. Thus the widow came to be very rich.
She was anxious to see her son-in-law, and one day she waited until he arrived.
Suddenly she saw a red bear appear from the water. He carried a whale on each side, and put
! 37
them down on the beach. As soon as he noticed that he was observed, he was transformed
into a rock, which may be seen up to this day. He was a supernatural being of the sea.

The earth has four major layers: the inner core, outer core, mantle and crust. The crust
and the top of the mantle make up a thin skin on the surface of our planet. But this skin is not
all in one piece – it is made up of many pieces like a puzzle covering the surface of the earth.
Not only that, but these puzzle pieces keep slowly moving around, sliding past one another
and bumping into each other. We call these puzzle pieces tectonic plates, and the edges of
the plates are called the plate boundaries. The plate boundaries are made up of many faults,
and most of the earthquakes around the world occur on these faults. Since the edges of the
plates are rough, they get stuck while the rest of the plate keeps moving. Finally, when the
plate has moved far enough, the edges unstuck on one of the faults and there is an
earthquake.
While the edges of faults are stuck together, and the rest of the block is moving, the
energy that would normally cause the blocks to slide past one another is being stored up.
When the force of the moving blocks finally overcomes the friction of the jagged edges of the
fault and it unsticks, all that stored up energy is released. The energy radiates outward from
the fault in all directions in the form of seismic waves like ripples on a pond. The seismic waves
shake the earth as they move through it, and when the waves reach the earth’s surface, they
shake the ground and anything on it, like our houses and us!

Social Network Impact on Young People
The impact of social networks on young people is significant. Children are growing up
surrounded by mobile devices and interactive social networking sites such as Twitter,
Instagram, and Facebook, which has made the social media a vital aspect of their life. Social
network is transforming the manner in which young people interact with their parents, peers,
as well as how they make use of technology. However, hyper-connected to social network
cannot be bad for them.
The effects of social networking are twofold. On the positive side, social networks can
act as invaluable tools for professionals. They achieve this by assisting young professionals to
market their skills and seek business opportunities. Social networking sites may also be used
to network professionally. On the negative side, the internet is laden with a number of risks
associated with online communities. Cyber bullying, which refers to a type of bullying that is
perpetrated using electronic technology, is one of the risks. Bullies have taken to internet
sites such as Twitter and Facebook, where the hide behind the anonymity provided by the
internet to carry out their despicable acts.
Young people also run the risk of inadvertently disclosing their personal information
since on most occasions; they usually neglect to read carefully websites’ privacy policies.
Whenever young people fail to read the policies and disclaimers, they are exposed to risks of
having their personal information disclosed. This is especially a serious matter in light o the
rising cases of cyber crimes such as identity theft. New studies reveal that social networks
! 39
have the ability to sway people to spend money by running advertisements on the user’s
page. Such forms of near-subliminal advertising can subconsciously cause an individual to buy
certain merchandise.
It is becoming increasingly clear that social networks have become part of people’s lives.
Many young people are using their tablet computers and smartphones to check Tweets and
status updates from their friends and family. As technology advances, people are pressured
to adopt different lifestyles. Social networking sites can assist young people to become more
socially capable. However, they may also make them clumsy and incompetent, as well.
Therefore, it is imperative to exercise caution and restraint when dealing with such issues.
23. What makes bullies are found on the social network?

A. People have their own privacy protected by the law set up in the internet.
B. Social networks have the ability to sway people to spend money.
C. People can hide behind the anonymity provided by the internet.
D. It can connect the people to the online communities easily.

business opportunities. (Paragraph 2) The underlined word refers to....
A. The effects
B. Social networks
C. The positive side
D. Business opportunities
E. Internet users
25. What is likely the writer’s opinion toward social networks?

Snakes are reptiles (cold-blooded creatures). They belong to the same group as lizard
(the scaled group, Squamata) but from a sub-group of their own (Serpentes).
Snakes have two legs but a long time ago they had claws to help them slither along.
Snakes are not slimy. They are covered in scales which are just bumps on the skin. Their skin
is hard and glossy to reduce friction as the snake slithers along the ground.
Snakes often sun bathe on rock in the warm weather. This is because snake is cold-
blooded; they need the sun’s warmth to heat their bodies up.
! 48
Most snakes live in the country. Some types of snakes live in trees; some live in water,
but most live on the ground in deserted rabbit burrows, in thick, long grass, and in old logs.
A snake’s diet usually consists of frogs, lizards, mice, and other snakes. The anaconda
can eat small crocodiles and even bears. Many snakes protect themselves with their fangs.
Some snakes are protected by scaring their enemies away like Cobra. The flying snakes glide
away from danger. Their ribs spread apart and the skin stretches out. Its technique is just like
the sugar gliders.

A tsunami is a series of ocean waves that sends surges of water, sometimes reaching
heights of over 100 feet (30.5 meters), onto land. These walls of water can cause widespread
destruction when they crash ashore.
These awe-inspiring waves are typically caused by large, undersea earthquakes at
tectonic plate boundaries. When the ocean floor at a plate boundary rises or falls suddenly, it
displaces the water above it and launches the rolling waves that will become a tsunami.
Most tsunami, about 80 percent, happen within the Pacific Ocean's "Ring of Fire," a
geologically active area where tectonic shifts make volcanoes and earthquakes common.
Tsunamis may also be caused by underwater landslides or volcanic eruptions. They may
even be launched, as they frequently were in Earth's ancient past, by the impact of a large
meteorite plunging into an ocean.
Tsunamis race across the sea at up to 500 miles (805 kilometers) an hour — about as
fast as a jet airplane. At that pace they can cross the entire expanse of the Pacific Ocean in
less than a day. And their long wavelengths mean they lose very little energy along the way.
A tsunami's trough, the low point beneath the wave's crest, often reaches shore first.
When it does, it produces a vacuum effect that sucks coastal water seaward and exposes
harbor and sea floors. This retreating of sea water is an important warning sign of a tsunami,
because the wave's crest and its enormous volume of water typically hit shore five minutes
or so later. Recognizing this phenomenon can save lives.
A tsunami is usually composed of a series waves, called a wave train, so its destructive
force may be compounded as successive waves reach shore. People experiencing a tsunami
should remember that the danger may not have passed with the first wave and should await
official word that it is safe to return to vulnerable locations.
! 50
Some tsunamis do not appear on shore as massive breaking waves but instead resemble
a quickly surging tide that inundates coastal areas.
10. Why did the author write the report?

A. To raise people' awareness about tsunami.
B. To warn people about an upcoming tsunami.

Kaka was born in Brazilia. From age 4 to 7, his family lived in Cuiaba, following his father,
a civil engineer. At age 7, the family moved to the city of Sao Paulo, in the neighborhood of
Morumbi, near the stadium of Sao Paulo FC. As FIFA says,” Kaka fails to fit the Brazilia stereo

Once there was a very lazy king. He hardly did any physical activity. As a result he started
to be ill. He called the royal doctor and said, “Give medicine to get well. If you don’t cure me,
I will kill you.”
The doctor knew laziness was the main cause of the king’s illness. The next daythe
doctor gave him big dumbbells and said, ‘Your Majesty, you must swingthese magic bells in
your hands every morning and evening for an hour. Do these till your arms starting sweating
and you will start getting cured.”

All human beings eat food and make use of the chemical energy in it, so do all other
animals. Perhaps you wonder where all that chemical energy comes from. Why doesn’t the
food all get used up?
The answer is that new food is being grown as fast as old food is used to. It is the green
plants that form the new food. Animals either eat the plants or eat other animals that have
eaten plants.
The green substance of plants is chlorophyll. Chlorophyll can absorb sunlight. When it
does so, it changes the energy of the sun into chemical energy. The chemical energy present
in sunlit chlorophyll is used to combine dioxide in the air with water from the soil. Starch and
! 53
other complicated compounds are formed. These are high in chemical energy obtained from
the sunlit chlorophyll.
They make up the food on which mankind and all other animals live. In the process of
forming this food, some oxygen atoms are left over. These are given off into the air by the
plants. The whole process is called photosynthesis.
Thus, plants use sunlight to from food and oxygen to from carbon dioxide and water
again. Plants change the sun’s energy into chemical energy. And animals change the animal
energy into kinetic and heat energy.
20. What will happen when the chlorophyll absorbs sunlight? It will....
A. change heat into kinetic energy
B. form complicated compound
C. make use of heat energy
D. change kinetic energy into chemical energy

B. all human beings need chemical energy
C. plants absorb sunlight to produce kinetic energy
D. chlorophyll is the most important thing in photosynthesis

22. The green substance of plants is chlorophyll. The underlined word in the above is closest
in meaning to....
A. core
B. body
C. stuff
D. essence
E. material
The use of formalin and other dangerous preservatives in food has been a serious for
two reasons. Firstly, formalin is not for human beings, but it is for biological specimen and
experiments. Formalin in biology is a 10% solution of formaldehyde in water which is usually
used as a disinfectant or to preserve biological specimens. Thus, it is not for food preservative,
it will be very dangerous to human’s body.
The second reason is that there is not tight control from the government. This condition
makes the people’s health is really in a threat. When the control is weak and the use of
formalin is spread wide all over the Indonesia regions, and these days it has really happened,
the citizens’ bodies will be badly contaminated with the poisons. Fish or food traders still sell
their product which contain formalin and dangerous preservatives. Can you imagine that our
digestive system absorbs the substance the should be for the human and animal corpses?

HAIR MYTHS DEBUNKED
Separating truth from follicular fiction.

shampoos over clear formulations.

Minos, in Greek mythology, the legendary ruler of Crete. Some ancient writers identified
several kings by his name, especially Minos the Elder and his grandson Minos the Younger,
but this distinction never appears in the accounts themselves. Minos was the son of Zeus,
father of the gods, and of the princess Europa. From the city of Knossos (Knosós) he
colonized many of the Aegean islands, and he was widely considered a just ruler. In the
most famous story about Minos, he refused to sacrifice a certain bull. The god Poseidon
punished him by making his wife Pasiphaë fall in love with the animal, and she subsequently
gave birth to the Minotaur. According to Attic legend, Minos was a tyrant who took harsh
measures to avenge the death of his son Androgeos at the hands of the Athenians. At stated
intervals he exacted a tribute from Athens of seven youths and seven maidens to be
sacrificed to the Minotaur. Minos eventually met his death in Sicily.

the Royal New Zealand Air Force during World War II (1939-1945). He obtained his early
mountaineering experience in the Southern Alps of New Zealand. In 1951 Hillary joined the
British Mount Everest Expedition. Over the next two years he joined the British Mount
Everest Expedition reconnaissance and practice climbs. By the time the British Mount
Everest Expedition was ready to attack Everest in the spring of 1953, Hillary had become
one of its strongest climbers. In April and May the climbing party ascended the mountain
by way of the South Col, the pass between Everest and neighboring peak Lhotse. After the

Dark chocolate
Chocolate is rich in flavonoids, and research shows that these nutrients reduce insulin
resistance, improve insulin sensitivity, drop insulin levels and fasting blood glucose, and
blunt cravings. But not all chocolate is created equal. In a 2008 study from the University of
Copenhagen, people who ate dark chocolate reported that they felt less like eating sweet,
salty or fatty foods compared to volunteers given milk chocolate, with its lower levels of
beneficial flavonoids (and, often, more sugar and fat, too). Dark chocolate also cut the
amount of pizza that volunteers consumed later in the same day, by 15 per cent. The
flavonoids in chocolate have also been shown to lower stroke risk, calm blood pressure and
reduce your risk for a heart attack by 2 per cent over five years.

Trojan War, in Greek legend, a famous war waged by the Greeks against the city of Troy. The
tradition is believed to reflect a real war between the Greeks of the late Mycenaean period
and the inhabitants of the Troad, or Troas, in Anatolia, part of present-day Turkey. Modern
archaeological excavations have shown that Troy was destroyed by fire sometime between
1230 BC and 1180 BC, and that the war may have resulted from the desire either to plunder
the wealthy city or to put an end to Troy's commercial control of the Dardanelles. Legendary
accounts of the war traced its origin to a golden apple, inscribed “for the fairest” and
thrown by Eris, goddess of discord, among the heavenly guests at the wedding of Peleus,
the ruler of Myrmidons, and Thetis, one of the Nereids. The award of the apple to
Aphrodite, goddess of love, by Paris, son of King Priam of Troy, secured for Paris the favor of
the goddess.

have taken everything of mine. Can you give me your stick?"
"Why do you need it?" the dacoit enquired "My wife will be pleased that at least I got a
stick from the fair."
The dacoit gave the stick to the farmer happily. Immediately the clever farmer started

Blueberries
Blueberries really stand out. They contain both insoluble fiber which “flushes” fat out of
your system and soluble fiber which slows down the emptying of your stomach, and
improves blood sugar control. In a study by the United States Department of Agriculture,
people who consumed 2.5 cups of wild blueberry juice per day for 12 weeks lowered their
blood glucose levels, lifted depression and improved their memories. Researchers credit
these results to anthocyanins in the berries, a natural chemical that shrinks fat cells and also
stimulates the release of adiponectin, a hormone that regulates blood glucose levels, among
other things. Increasing adiponectin levels can help keep blood sugar low and increase our
sensitivity to insulin.

About 2200-1800 BC a wave of newcomers arrived in the Cyclades and on the mainland.
They caused considerable destruction, and for about two centuries civilization was
disrupted, especially on the mainland. New pottery and the introduction of horses at this
time indicate that the invaders were of the Indo-European language family, to which both
Ancient and Modern Greek belong.
On Crete, impressive buildings, frescoes, vases, and early writing are evidence of a
flourishing culture of the 2nd millennium BC, which came to be known as Minoan. Great
royal palaces built around large courtyards were the focal points of these communities. The
most magnificent of the palaces was at Knossos. Destroyed presumably by an earthquake or
a foreign invasion about 1700 BC, it was rebuilt on a grand scale. It seems likely that the
Minoans maintained a marine empire, trading not only with the Cyclades and the mainland
but also with Sicily, Egypt, and cities on the eastern shore of the Mediterranean.

Amerigo Vespucci (Latin Americus Vespucius) (1454-1512), Italian navigator, for whom the
continents of North and South America are named. He was born in Florence. In 1495 he
took over the business of a merchant in Seville, Spain, who had furnished supplies to ships
voyaging to the West Indies. Vespucci later set out for the New World himself and left
accounts and maps of four voyages. Most scholars agree that Vespucci explored a large
section of the northern coast of South America during an expedition led by Spanish soldier
Alonso de Ojeda in 1499 and 1500. Most also believe that he might have explored part of
that continent's eastern coast on a subsequent voyage. German geographer and
cartographer Martin Waldseemüller, who translated Vespucci's narrative in 1507, was the
first to use America, an adaptation of the explorer's given name of Amerigo, as a name for
the southern continent. The name gradually came into use to refer to the two western
continents after it appeared on a world map published in 1538.

Malnutrition is one of the most common effects of poverty. In developing countries, the
poorest people cannot obtain adequate calories to develop or maintain their appropriate
body weight. In Ethiopia, for example, it is estimated that almost half of all children under
the age of 5 suffer from malnutrition. Poor children in developing countries often suffer the
most, commonly from a deficiency known as proteinenergy malnutrition. In these cases,
children lack protein in their diets, especially from an insufficient amount of mother’s milk.
Protein-energy malnutrition leads to a variety of problems, including gastrointestinal
disorders, stunted growth, poor mental development, and high rates of infection. Prolonged
malnutrition can lead to starvation, a condition in which the body’s tissues and organs
deteriorate. Long-term starvation almost always results in death.

Ways to Avoid Sore Muscles

Sore muscles are often the result of pushing your body too hard or too fast. If you’re hoping
to head back to the gym, you’ll want to check out our tips.
1) Load up on antioxidants: Several studies find that taking antioxidants for 2 weeks before
beginning a new exercise program can minimize muscle soreness and help maintain
muscle function. Take a combined product containing vitamin C, vitamin E and at beta-
carotene.
2) Start slowly: Get your body accustomed to physical activity before taking on a big
project or workout regimen. When you’re ready to get back on your bicycle, do it for a
bit at a time. The same goes for turning over the garden or reorganizing the garage.
3) Mix up your workouts: If you’re doing weight or resistance training, don’t work the same
muscle groups every day. Write down what your daily workout consists of, ideally in
advance, but afterwards is good, too.

Achaeans, people of an ancient region in the northern Peloponnesus, Greece. The term was
broadly used by Homer to designate all the inhabitants of ancient Greece. According to
Greek mythology, the Achaeans were descendants of Achaeus, grandson of Hellen, the
legendary ancestor of the Hellenes, or Greeks. The region where they lived was known as
Achaea. References to the western kingdom of Ahhiawa in Hittite documents of the 13th
and 14th centuries BC have been thought by some scholars to refer to the ancient city of
Mycenae under Achaean domination. These documents characterize the Achaeans as a
maritime people inhabiting western Asia Minor and the island of Lésvos in the Aegean
Sea. In the Homeric period (circa 7th century BC) the Achaeans controlled southern Thessaly
(Thessalia) and most of the Pelopónnisos, but from the 6th to the 2nd century BC they were
restricted to a narrow strip on the north coast of the Pelopónnisos. In the 4th century BC
they formed a confederation of states known as the Achaean League.

Ernest Shackleton (1874-1922) led three expeditions to the Antarctic, on one of them
coming within 179 km (111 ml) of reaching the South Pole—the closest anyone had come at
that time. Shackleton is most remembered for leading the fabled Endurance expedition, in
which his men survived for ten months on ice floes and on a barren uninhabited island after
their ship was crushed by pack ice in the Weddell Sea. Sir Ernest Henry Shackleton was born
in County Kildare, Ireland, the eldest son and second of ten children of a Quaker doctor and
his wife. The Shackleton family motto was the Latin phrase Fortitudine Vincimus (by
endurance we conquer). Shackleton attended Dulwich College in London, England, for three
years before going to sea at age 16. He spent the next 11 years in the merchant marine. In
1901 Shackleton joined the British National Antarctic Expedition led by British naval officer
Robert Falcon Scott, sailing on the ship Discovery. The goal of the expedition was to reach

to him?” until she was crying as hard as I was.
Ten years later, he’d finally succeeded in drinking himself dead. As I stood over his coffin, I
was out of tears. And regrets. I was out of everything, even breath. But I shoved a

Managed Intensive Rotational Grazing (MIRG), also known as cell grazing, mob grazing and
holistic managed planned grazing, is a variety of forage use in which herds/flocks are
regularly and systematically moved to fresh, rested grazing areas to maximize the quality
and quantity of forage growth. MIRG can be used with cattle, sheep, goats, pigs, chickens,
turkeys, ducks and other animals. The herds graze one portion of pasture, or a paddock,
while allowing the others to recover. Resting grazed lands allows the vegetation to renew
energy reserves, rebuild shoot systems, and deepen root systems, resulting in long-term
maximum biomass production. MIRG is especially effective because grazers thrive on the
more tender younger plant stems. MIRG also leave parasites behind to die off minimizing or
eliminating the need for de-wormers. Pasture systems alone can allow grazers to meet their
energy requirements.

Turmeric
Turmeric may have been protecting the health of an entire Indian subcontinent for about
5,000 years. A traditional Indian diet features white rice and flour breads, which as rapidly
digested carbs would ordinarily raise blood sugar dramatically. But the presence of turmeric
– the yellow spice that lends its color to many curry dishes – helps to manage the potent
impact on blood sugar. Curcumin, the active ingredient in turmeric, is the compound
believed to regulate fat metabolism in the body. Curcumin acts directly on fat cells,
pancreatic cells, kidney cells and muscle cells, dampening inflammation and blocking the
nefarious activities of cancer-causing tumor necrosis factor and interleukin-6. Experts
believe the combined action of all of these factors together gives curcumin the power to
reverse insulin resistance, high blood sugar and high cholesterol, and other symptoms
linked to obesity.

TOP TIPS FOR HAIR REMOVAL
! 125!
Shaving
The cheapest and quickest procedures of hair removal:
1) Exfoliate your skin pre-shave to prevent ingrown hairs.
2) Always use a sharp blade, as worn blades cause skin irritation and more nicks. Plus, they
don’t remove all hairs.
3) Try using specialty shaving gels on your legs for a slicker shave. Or, failing that, improvise
with a thin layer of cheap conditioner.
4) Wait a few minutes post-shave before applying deodorants or perfumes straight to skin.
If it stings, give your skin a chance to recover properly before applying.
Depilatory Creams
These work by employing a high-pH substance that reacts with the protein structure of hair
to break down follicles. It usually takes from three to 15 minutes, depending on the specific
product and coarseness of the hair.
Tip: Look out for the great new types of in-shower hair-removal cream. You still apply the
cream a minute before you get in the shower – and leave it on for a few minutes while
showering – but it’s still a quicker and much less messy option that works.
Waxing
Waxing lasts longer (three weeks or more, depending on personal hair growth). In-salon
waxing varies in price. At-home waxing is cheaper – but beware of using hot wax at home as
you can easily burn yourself.
4. The following are among materials for shaving EXCEPT ….

A. conditioner
B. deodorants
C. slicker shave
D. shaving gels
E. perfumes
5. How does the shaving cream work in breaking down follicles? A. It reacts with the hair
protein structure.
B. It takes approximately ten minutes.
C. It depends on the hair coarseness.
D. It is quicker and much less messy.
E. It gives your skin a chance to recover.
6. What does the word depilatory most nearly mean? A. A type of cream stimulating hair
growth.
B. A substance causing the hair to be less messy.
C. A substance used for removing unwanted hair.
D. A type of cream used for showering before shaving.
E. A high-pH substance that reacts with the protein structure.

sent to Pasiphaë's husband, King Minos. When Minos refused to sacrifice the beast,
Poseidon made Pasiphaë fall in love with it. After she gave birth to the Minotaur, Minos

Land use practices vary considerably across the world. The United Nations’ Food and
Agriculture Organization Water Development Division explains that "Land use concerns the
! 127!
products and/or benefits obtained from use of the land as well as the land management
activities carried out by humans to produce those products and benefits."As of the early
1990s, about 13% of the Earth was considered arable land, with 26% pasture, 32% forests
and woodland, and 1.5% urban areas. As Albert Guttenberg (1959) wrote many years ago,
"'Land use' is a key term in the language of city planning." Commonly, political jurisdictions

The Cowardly Skydiver

At the age of 43 he made the decision to jump out of a plane.
The idea scared the shit out of him but the reward of finally feeling like a real man was
worth it. So all geared up away he flew — the plane’s door open during the whole flight.
Trying hard not to gag in front of anyone he approached the door once they were above the
clouds. Don’t think you coward! Just jump! What’s the worst that could happen? Living like
this is far worse than the shoot not opening, he thought.
So he jumped and fell towards the Earth at 120 mph.
He felt at peace as he fell. Frantic thoughts did not cross his mind as one might think. Just
peace. When he hit the ground and stood up tears filled his eyes.
He would never be a real man.

Spinach
! 130!
Spinach is one of many leafy greens that have been shown to drop the risk of developing
diabetes; collards are another great choice. People who consume more than one serving a
day of spinach and other leafy greens slashed their risk by 14 per cent, compared to people
who ate less than half a serving daily, found one British study. This green is particularly rich
in vitamin K, along with several minerals including magnesium, folate, phosphorus,
potassium and zinc. It’s also a good source of the plant chemicals lutein and zeaxanthin, and
various flavonoids. Although spinach is technically a rich source of calcium, another nutrient
in spinach called oxalic acid prevents much of that calcium from being absorbed, but you
can blanch spinach to reduce this chemical.

There is often confusion over the difference between grades and learning assessment. Some
believe they are totally unrelated and others think they are one and the same. The truth is,
it depends. (38) Grades are often based on more than just learning outcomes. Grading
criteria often include behaviors or activities that are not measures of learning outcomes,
such as attendance, participation, improvement, or effort. Although these may be
correlated with learning outcomes, and can be valued aspects of the course, typically they
are not measures of learning outcomes themselves.

John Cabot (1450-1499), Italian navigator and explorer, who attempted to find a direct
route to Asia. Although Cabot was probably born in Genoa, as a youth he moved to Venice,
where his seafaring career probably began. He became a naturalized Venetian in 1476, but
about eight years later settled in Bristol, England. Cabot had developed a theory that Asia
might be reached by sailing westward. This theory appealed to several wealthy merchants
of Bristol, who agreed to give him financial support. In 1493, when reports reached England
that Christopher Columbus had made the westward passage to Asia, Cabot and his
supporters began to make plans for a more direct crossing to the Orient. The proposed
expedition was authorized on March 5, 1496, by King Henry VII of England. With a crew of
18 men, Cabot sailed from Bristol on May 2, 1497, on the Matthew. He steered a generally
northwestward course, and on June 24, after a rough voyage, he landed, perhaps on
present-day Cape Breton Island.

Questions 48-50 refer to the text below.
The concentration of glucose in the blood must be kept at a set point. The concentration of
glucose in a person’s blood can increase after they have eaten a meal containing lots of
carbohydrates. The concentration of glucose in a person’s blood can decrease after a period
of exercise or if they have not eaten for a long while. Glucose diffuses out of the blood into
muscle cells and is broken down to release energy for muscle contractions. If the blood
glucose concentration rises too high then cells can lose water. This may interfere with cell
activities. If the blood glucose concentration falls too much then body cells will not receive
as much glucose and so will not be able to release so much energy in respiration. The
concentration of glucose in the blood is regulated by the action of the hormones, insulin,
and glucagon. These hormones are made in the pancreas and act on cells in the liver.

Sir Arthur John Evans (1851-1941) was born in Nash Mills, England, and educated at Harrow
School, Brasenose College, the University of Oxford, and the University of Göttingen. From
1884 to 1908 he was curator of the Ashmolean Museum at Oxford. His interest in early
writing led him to Crete in 1894, where he studied inscriptions on ancient sealstones. A year
later he published the results in Cretan Pictographs and Prae-Phoenician Script. During the
period 1900-1906 he unearthed in Crete the palace at Knossos (Knosós), a huge edifice that
covers more than 2 hectares (5 acres), and he continued excavations there until 1935. The
labyrinthine ground plan of the palace suggested to him the legend of Minos, hence his
designation of the Cretan civilization as Minoan. Excavations at Knossos also revealed some
3000 clay tablets inscribed in two scripts later known as Linear A and Linear B. In Scripta
Minoa (1952) Evans dealt with the problem of decipherment of these scripts and the
pictorial.
