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.

For many people who live in cities, parks are an important part of the landscape. They provide a place for people to relax and play sports, as well as a refuge from the often harsh environment of a city. What people often overlook is that parks also provide considerable environmental benefits.

One benefit of parks is that plants absorb carbon dioxide—a key pollutant—and emit oxygen, which humans need to breathe. According to one study, an acre of trees can absorb the same amount of carbon dioxide that a typical car emits in 11,000 miles of driving. Parks also make cities cooler. Scientists have long noted what is called the Urban Heat Island Effect: building materials such as metal, concrete, and asphalt absorb much more of the sun’s heat and release it much more quickly than organic surfaces like trees and grass. Because city landscapes contain so much of these building materials, cities are usually warmer than surrounding rural areas. Parks and other green spaces help to mitigate the Urban Heat Island Effect.

Unfortunately, many cities cannot easily create more parks because most land is already being used for buildings, roads, parking lots, and other essential parts of the urban environment. However, cities could benefit from many of the positive effects of parks by encouraging citizens to create another type of green space: rooftop gardens. While most people would not think of starting a garden on their roof, human beings have been planting gardens on rooftops for thousands of years. Some rooftop gardens are very complex and require complicated engineering, but others are simple container gardens that anyone can create with the investment of a few hundred dollars and a few hours of work.

Rooftop gardens provide many of the same benefits as other urban park and garden spaces, but without taking up the much-needed land. Like parks, rooftop gardens help to replace carbon dioxide in the air with nourishing oxygen. They also help to lessen the Urban Heat Island Effect, which can save people money. In the summer, rooftop gardens prevent buildings from absorbing heat from the sun, which can significantly reduce cooling bills. In the winter, gardens help hold in the heat that materials like brick and concrete radiate so quickly, leading to savings on heating bills. Rooftop vegetable and herb gardens can also provide fresh food for city dwellers, saving them money and making their diets healthier. Rooftop gardens are not only something everyone can enjoy, they are also a smart environmental investment.

Based on its use in paragraph 2, it can be inferred that mitigate belongs to which of the following word groups?

A. exacerbate, aggravate, intensify

B. obliterate, destroy, annihilate

C. allay, alleviate, reduce

D. absorb, intake, consume

The volume of traffic in many cities in the world today continues to expand. This caused many problems, including serious air pollution, lengthy delays, and the greater risk of accidents.

VIII. Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C or D on year answer sheet to indicate the correct answer to each of the questions. 

    Millions of people are using cell phones today. In many places, it is actually considered unusual not to use one. In many countries, cell phones are very popular with young people. They find that the phones are more than a means of communication- having a mobile phone shows that they are cool and connected.

      The explosion in mobile phone use around the world has made some health professionals worried. Some doctors are concerned that in the future many people may suffer health problems from the use of mobile phones. In England, there has been a serious debate about this issue. Mobile phone companies are worried about the negative publicity of such ideas. They say that there is no proof that mobile phones are bad for your health.

     On the other hand, medical studies have shown changes in the brain cells of some people who use mobile phones. Signs of change in the tissues of the brain and head can be detected with modern scanning equipment. In one case, a travelling salesman had to retire at young age because of serious memory loss. He couldn’t remember even simple tasks. He would often forget the name of his own son. This man used to talk on his mobile phone for about six hours a day, evey day of his working week, for a couple of years. His family doctor blamed his mobile phone use, but his employer’s doctor didn’t agree.

     What is it that makes mobile phones potentiallyharmful? The answer is radiation. High-tech machines can detect very small amounts of radiationfrom mobile phones. Mobile phone companies agree that there is some radiation. But they say the amount is too small to worry about.

      As the discussion about their safety continues, it appears that it’s best to use mobile phones less often. Use your regular phone if you want to talk for a long time. Use your mobile phone only when you really need it. Mobile phones can be very useful and convenient, especially in emergencies. In the future, mobile phones may have a warning label that says they are bad for your health. So for now, it’s wise not to use your mobile phone too often.

1. According to the passage, cell phones are especially popular with young people because________.

A. they keep the users alert all the time          

B. they make them look more stylish

C. they can not be replaced by regular phones          

D. they are indispensable in everyday communications.

2. The word “means”  in paragraph 1 most closely means________.

A. meanings          B. expression                 C. transmission    D. method.

3. Doctors have tentatively concluded that cell phones may________.

A. change their users’ social behaviors                  B. change their users’ temperament            

C. cause some mental malfunction                          D. damage their users’ emotions.

4. “Negative publicity” in paragraph 2 most likely means _______.

A. widespread opinion about bad effects of cell phones

B. information on the lethal effects of cell phones

C. the negative public use  of cell phones

D. poor ideas about the effects of cell phones.

5. The changes possibly caused by the cell phones are mainly concerned with_______.

A. the smallest units of the brain                  B. the mobility of the mind and the body.

C. the resident memory.                     D. the arteries of the brain.

6. The man mentioned in the passage, who used his cell phone too often, _______.

A. had a problem with memory                    B. abandoned his family

C. suffered serious loss of mental ability.               D. could no longer think lucidly.

7. The word “potentially” in the paragraph 4 most closely means_______.

Family Problems:  Teenagers can also feel tense at home because of family pressure and problems. Arguments with brothers or sisters, disagreements with parents over rules and family expectations may also cause teenagers’ stress.
